Count Hannibal In.

Count Hannibal in the race for the
1910 Central association pennant-
With practically an assurance that
nearly all, if not all. OF the members
of the 1909 club viii be returned, and
with zen new men none of whom ever
before wore Cannibal uniform, al
ready signed and the management
still busy searching for others-not
youngsters or hasbeens, but men who
can believer the goods and have
record that viii bear out their claims
the baseball horizon so far as
Hannibal is concerned, is exceptionally
bright just at present.
While no official announcement has
been made to the effect that Prout,
manager of last years club; Evans,
utility man; Kraft and Swain, pitch
ers, drafted by the Brooklyn Nation
ais at the finish OF last season, are TO
be returned, there is every reason TO
believe that such will be the case,
and when the gong taps at League
park on May next, for the opening
game. these man viii be in the line
up, providing they are not beaten out
OF their places during the spring
training by faster or better men. But
this is not likely.
Prout, Evans, Swain and Kraft are
rated among the best players in the
| Central association, and each contrib
,Ited to the marvellous success of the
team last season. And, too, there is
Milligan and Hamilton, both of whom
may yet be turned back to Hannibal
/ This is not considered probable,
though, as both have proven they are
capable of playing in faster company.
Hamilton may not be carried by
Brooklyn during the coming season
but will in all probability be turned
over to some club in the American as
citation. A report from indianapolis
has it that Milligan will not be tried
out with that club next spring, but is
surely without foundation. Milligan
is natural hitter. a good fielder and
an all around clever player.

Four Pitchers Signed.

President Charles A. Cruikshank of
the local association stated this after
noon that he had already signed ten
new men, but the names are Withheld
for various reasons. -Four Of these
new men are pitchers, said to be
crackerjacks. II such is the case,
Hannibal will no doubt be strong
er in this department than in any
other. 1t was necessary FOR the club
last year to secure all new men, but
things are different now. 1t is not up
to the association to build up an en-
tirely new team, but TO make strong
er the club they now possess. Hanni-
bal, backed by her ever-supporting
and ever-cheering fans, will go into
the race this year in better trim than
ever before. The club last year, and
the one that represented the city in
the I'm. league were both good ones
And 1t was a harder struggle to get
a team together then than it is now,
SO 1t is only fair to predict that the
club this year viii be stronger, faster
and in every way a better aggrega-
ton But wait The article Of ball

this year is going to be faster. Better
men will compose the clubs this year
than those of last year and the Hanni-
bal team needs TO be faster aggrega-
