MOren Refuses TO SIGN.

New York, Nov. 14.-Pitcher Moren
OF the Philadelphia Club has refused
TO sign the contract sent to him by
August Hermann, president of the
Cincinnati Club. Moren says he con-
Sidens himself the legal property OF
the Philadelphia club, inasmuch Is
President Fogel has blocked the deal
that would send him to Porkville, and
he declares that he will not violate
his contract by signing another. Lo-
bert of Cincinnati also has notified
Hermann that he will not play IN
Philadelphia. Meanwhile Fogel, who
'has returned from New Orleans, says
he isn't worrying about Herrmann's
warlike attitude, and is in no hurry
to discuss matters with the Cincinnati
nagnate.
In the opinion of many well posted
baseball men Hermann has acted
hastily in signing two Philadelphia
players who have not been formally
released by the Philadelphia club. Ev-
en- though he may believe he is NOR
ally entitled to sign these men, Herr
mann, it is argued, has no right TO
violate the Fundamental principles
