OBSTACLES CONFRONT
FLETCHER'S MOVEMENT
New Third League Will Hav Difficult Time Establishing
Itself Permanently Real Motive Is
Hard to Determine At This Stage.

He is not a bOaster. It is said, and can
hustle tWeney-three hours out Of twen-
ty-fOur- Ban Johnson made the AmeTi-
can League strong by interesting men
with money There IS a certain amount
of unrest among the players now. and
likewise a ye--ning on the part Of some
wealthy persons 10 invest In baseball
clubs
II is believed that Fletcher counts on
bringing these two forces together and
prOIunE thereby The baseball laws
which make possible the rearing OF mil
nunaires among the club owners are not
understood b. many Of the Would-Oe in
VestOrs- They simply know that there Is
big money iE the game in a large
city Players are always ready 10
Jump for more money.
According to the deductions Of we'll
posted players who have side-srepped
FIetchers propositions, the Toledo pro-
meters idea is 10 obtain the signatures
or many prominent players 90 dOCu-
ments that are really nothing but Op-
ucuS on services, and 20 sell these Op-
tons 20 q combination OF men who viii
undertake 10 finance league and build
up teams around the reserve Jumpers"
Chance for Graft.
II he can go that far, Fletcher IN
doubtedly could retire with q large piece
Of money for his share and leave the
players and capitalists 70 the mercies Of
one another. Instead Of blacklistiug
players the National and American
Leagues probably would offer them in
ducements 10 jump back and thus wreck
the third league In any event, the
players and promoters would be stung.
but Fletcher would be out from under
before the crash came
The biz obstacle is the lack OF room
Tor d third league. The American
League was welcomed here IN New
York because The Giants were taiIenders
IN the National League The fans
wanted 20 see another team and the
coming Of The Highlanders brought
competition that made the G ants a
first division team
But there is no ClamOr here for an
other big league team The Giants and
Hignlanders. provide continuous enter
talnUenI all season. and rival team
70 make money would first have 10 PLAY
against teams that would draw as well
as those that visit the Polo Grounds
and American League Park. Further
more the location Of grounds would be
most important
Needs Lots Of Money.
Prank Farrell has been compelled 70
eros sthe Harlem river TO find a new
field for the HighIanders- A rival club
certainly could find no location on Man
haitian Island and any available PARK
site would cost hundreds Of thousands
OF dollars with the stands
Therefore third big league team
would have 10 overcome the questions
Of distance 10 be Travelled and the pro-
yiding OF superior attractions
Il is doubtful that newspapers IN the
big league circuits would encourage the
Establishment Of a new big league News,

leagues now occupy much Ealua be
space. and the reporting Of them entails
quite an expense and more space is
scarcely available

NEW YORK. Oct. 31-If Daniel A
Fletcher, the great emancipation OF the
baseball slaves. is going 10 carry out
his announced program, he IS due in
New York this week to establish head
quarters for his third league.
When the Giants and Highlanders
were engaged in civil warfare two
weeks ago, Fletcher quietly slipped
into this city from Philadelphia and
spent a few days here, but no money

Syracuse Quits Rowing.

The decision Of Syracuse to abandon
aQuatics for a year Is a source Of gem
uine regret to rowing men IN general
and followers Of the POUShkeepsie re
gatta in particular.
1t was Syracuse that broke CorneITs
string Of successive victories that was
doing so much TO lessen the popularity
Of the races on the Hudson, and since
that time the men from the Salt City
have been developing consistently good
crews
While the style of rowing taught by
the veteran. Jim Ten EyCk is consul
cred unOTthOdoX by many students OF
the art Of handing a sweep, the fact,
nevertheless, remains that given talent
, capable Of learning and rowing the
stroke taught by Ten Eyck. and SYRIA
CUSe has been in the van on more than
one occasion. 1t was not until the ad-
vent of Ten EyclI and his Orange Jcr-
seyed athletes that close finishes be-
came the rule at POughkeepsie.
The temporary suspension Of rowing
by Syracuse Is a blow TO that branch
of intercollegiate suyrt. but there is no
little consolation IN the announcement
that rowing viii be resumed after the
lapse Of one year during which the
treasury Will have an opportunity 70 re-
cover from the drain which rowing ne
cessitated.
Chancellor Day may defend RockefeI-
fer and the university may receive oil

accuse Syracuse Of running a shell

There is no doubt, however. that
''Fletcherized baseball" IS the best ad-

Hermann Wants PhillieS to
Appeal Trade of
Players.

PHILADELPHIA. Nov open war
on syndicate baseball Is now the issue
Of Garry Hermann. president Of the
Cincinnati club. and chairman Of the
National Baseball Commission.
This has been declared by Hermann
in his signing Johnny Bates and George
McQuillan, the two Philadelphia players
named in the proposed trade between
the Reds and the Phillies, which was
blocked by the hand OF President Fogel,
OF the Philadelphia club. Hermann has
challenged FOgel TO appeal the case to
the men higher up in baseball
why this def on the part Of Herr
man?' Is asked. ITO make Charles
Webb Murphy show his hand?"
No longer does the dispute between
President FogeI and Manager Doom, Of
the Phillies, occupy the attention OF the
baseball mOguls. FOge. and Doom are
the minor lights, and have been from
the start Of the controversy.

One-tOn GrabOwSky power wagon, in

The car not only carried its full load

siderable overload. It was driven by
William Mulstay, of New York, and was
under the observance Of William Baker
Of the Detroit Automobile Club. Every

Hermann Insists.

McQuillan and Bates were signed by
the Cincinnati club without the con-
sent Of the Philadelphia club after
President FogeI had refused 10 let the
deal go through. President Hermann
insisted that the trade go through and
probably he took the action Of signing
the two Phillie players more because it
would give him a better opportunity to
present what evidence he may have
that Murphy controls the Phillies. At
any rate, the Cincinnati club, believ-
ing in its own rights and power, went
ahead and signed the players.
Third Baseman Grant and Pitcher
Moren were expected to sign yesterday.
but the two Phillie players did not
reach Cincinnati. However. these men
stand ready to place their signatures to
Cincinnati contracts. If the deal goes
through, Beebe, Rowan, Paskert, and
Lobert will come TO this -ity. If the

If the deal does not go through PhiIa-
delphia will be the loser. Doom will
have resigned as manager. It is alto
gether probable that Doom would have
TO be traded to another club. Hardly
would &c consent to play for the Phil
lies. Then again, McQuillan, Bates.
Moren, and Grant, know they are not
desired by the Phnlies, since the trade
had been promulgated and surely they
