He Is wealthy and intends to buy a
minor league club; In fact, he has al
really started negotiations.
Clark Griffith hasn't a chance to
stick in Cincinnati the way things are
going there. Griff registered failure
with the Reds, although he commands
a team of individual stars and has
spent much money in the upkeep OF
his machine. The principal trouble Is
lack Of good pitching. the same az IT

nevertheless, II is a certainty that
Johnny Killing has been promised the
management of the Rustlers. Even

hasn't much chance to stick. He has
been unfortunately situated. and has
not made any progress.
Harry Davis has been offered the
management OF the Cleveland team
and probably Will accept next winter.
George Stovall. the present leader of
the Maps. Is willing to become pri-
vate again. Stoyall's appointment to

sidered as anything but a temporary
arrangement.
Garry Hermann will find IT difficult
