The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1910-09-24


Only the blot of shame on our fair
city because the fight pictures are
being shown several miles out in the
county
o. Wild alarmists are telling skepticaI
fans in New York and elsewhere that
the trouble between Hal Chase, first
baseman, ard George StallinEs, man
ager, of the New York Americans, has
a deep, vast significance not apparent
to the naked eye They would have
us believe that II is all part Of a care
fully laid plot by the leading players
in the big leagues TO bring the qUeS-
aions between owners and players TO
head, and that Chase is simply a tool
selected 90 make q test case The
story Is that the stars nave formed
= sort oF secret organization, and are
going tc push the national commits
sion 10 the wall as far as possible
with the hope of either forcing a
raise in salaries OF obtaining relief
from certain conditions in the present
baseball contracts. We do not think
there is any ground for the story. and
the aIarmists viii have TO guess
again
Washington in St Louis today
The matter between Chase and stall
Engs has been standing a long time, and
seems TO have been settled entirely in
favor Of Chase. This means SJallings
will lose his job, but he was going 10
lose II anyhow Inc principal po-i4'
10 the Investigation conducted by Owner
Farrell in Cleveland was that Chase
was cleared Of all charges Of laying
down in his work this year That &C
mutual Will mean much, for unless II
