Offer from a Western Club.

OhhS hAOAh -
Following his usual custom, "Jawn"
Camel is grabbing everything in sight
The latest report is that Outfelder
Jack Dalton. who was a sensation with
the Brooklyn club last year, until he
met with an injury, will be on the
Rochester roster. All of the big league
clubs are said to have waived on the
speedy gardner. Charley Chaplin. presi-
dent of the Rochester club, was In Man
haitian last week and probably dropped
in to see the Brooklyn management
and at the same time engineered the
deal.
Ralph Savidge and Doc Martel, one
of John Cancels Rochester batteries
last year, have ben sold to the Mont
gomery Club. 1t was announced some
time ago that Martel mad been ) Id ~
Utica, but there was no truth in that
story. Savidge pitched great ball fer
Montreal two seasons ago, but last
year he did not have such an easy
time of 1t, despite the fact that he had
a champion team behind him. jIe
blamed it to an attempt to develop a
splitter, which threw him out % his
stride, and then, too, there was illness
in his family, which helped to cause
his slump.
Providence may not get Outfieldef
Chadbourne after all. Secretary Far
rell. of the National Association, has
notified the Gray management that
Chadbourne was not a free agent, and
that he has been turned over to the
Portland club, of the Pacific Coast
League.
In his mail yesterday Joe McGinnity
received a letter that brought a smile
to his lips. 1t was from C. A. Cruik-
shank, of the Hannibal Club, of the
Western Association. Cruikshank sets
forth that he has several good players
who are all easy to get along with" for
sale. He says that the salary limit re-
Gently adopted by his league make a
general unloading necessary. He will
sell about ten men, assorted, with spe
cial prices IL bought in lots" All of
them are 300 hitters, fast on their feet
n good fielders and throwers. Some
OF them had "off years. last season.
and so Hannibal finished second. None
of them ever hits for less than two
bases and any outfielder can owe the
entire garden alone
A brown travelling uniform has been
submitted to Joe McGinnity by a big
sporting goods concern and the chances
are that 1t will be adopted. 1t is a sort
of mauve color, with blue lettering n
trimming. The color scheme is new and
the object is hat the suit will not show
the dirt when men slid 1t is impos-
sible for the players to keep their suits
as clean on the road as when they are
at home, of course. and Joe McGinnity
likes neatness. Mrs. McGinnity is to
be a judge of the material used In the
suits hat the Newark club adopts.
This is a tip to solicitors. who might
bring a box of candy, instead of cigars,
when trying to do business with the
Iron Man" in this line.
Pitcher Elmer Steele. of the Provi-
dence club, has been awarded a salary
claim against the Providence Club for
5000 5 He signed with the Grays to
play for the season at 1900, but left
with the management's permission to
Join the Pittsburg club four days be-
fore the Eastern League season closed.
The commission ruled that inasmuch as
he went with the Providence clubs per-
mission, he was entitled to the full
years pay as per contract, which had
not been nullifed by the transfer.
Dalton Is rated a Josh Deyore in
speed, Is a clever fielder and a 800 hit
ter. He came to Brooklyn from Des-
Moines and batted $40 until one day
on the Brooklyn grounds he crashed in
to the fence and was out of the game
for the rest of the season. There were
six other clubs after Dalton. and it Is
said that the Minneapolis club offered
$500 for him.
Pitcher Clark, a Providence recruit,
who graduates from the Chicago city
League, Is working out at Hot Springs,
Ark.
1t Is said that the Boston American
management will try to make a
catcher of Charley Wagner. the former
Newark shortstop, this spring. The
report is probably false, and is sent
out to scare Billy Carrigan. who is
holding out.
Tom Hughes, the former Tiger, has
signed his contract with the Rochester
Club.
Outhelder Maloney, two years ago
with the Hustlers, wants to come back.
He was a travelling salesman last year.
and did not play. He got in bad with
organized baseball by playing Sunday
ball with an outlaw Chicago City
League team. Camel will try to have
him reinstated and then sell him.
HOPPE TO PLAY AGAIN.
