BAN Johnson NAILS STORY OF
McALEER-JOHN l. TAYLOR DEAL
Dps During Explanation
He Investigated Whole Yarn Found Baseess-Earer Playing


There is absolutely nothing doing In
any negotiations between Jim MCAleeI
and John l. Taylor for the purchase OF
the Boston club"
This YVES the statement Of Ban John
son. president OF the American League,
as he was about to leave Washington
yesterday afternoon, after a two days
visit here with the owners of the Ma
tionals.
THE first Information concerning this
alleged deal came through the papers,
and l Immediately left Chicago and
went to Boston and saw TAYLOR" con-
tinued the head of the league. He
said the whole report amounted TO little
or nothing, so l came on to Washing
ton and found the stockholders here
still trying to find what authority there
was for the report"
1t appears now that some time ago,
when the Red Sox were proving most
disappointing in their work some one
asked Taylor how much he wanted for
his club. He replied that he was willing
to take half a million for the invest
ment and this was printed.
Then the Nationals happened to be in
Boston, and as Taylor and McAleer

and said that such a finish by Agricul-
ture made up for the poor work done
during the season.
Should Commerce and Labor lose TO
Navy tomorrow, Postoffice will be
champions, but should Commerce and
Labor win, there will be a tie for first
place. This will necessitate a series of
three games between the Nkailmen and
next week. so the winner may be deter
mined in time for Sthe post-season
championship. The Mail Fingers and
the Laborites have played five games
this year, Postoffice winning one, ty-
ing one. and losing three.
Their Only Defeats.
These three losses to Commerce and
Labor were the only defeats meted out
TO the Mailmen during the season. Com
merce and Labor has been defeated by
Postotfice, Navy, and Agriculture, and
must win tomorrow, to tie Postoffice
for the lead.

who was watching the game, as soon as

forty eight hours. This revives the
rumor of two weeks ago that John l.
Taylor had decided to sell out. Jim
McAleer. manager of the Washington
club. is said to be the man most
largely interested in getting control
OF the Boston team. Some credence
is lent to the story by the fact that
BvrOn Bancroft Johnson. president
of the American League, was in Bos-
ton last Saturday and made a hurried
trip from there to Washington.
1t was said that the chief executive
was simply making an inspection Of
the diamonds, but those who are on
the inside scoff at this and insist that
II John l. Taylor is reasonable in
putting a price on his team the deal
will be closed in short order. A few
days ago Taylor was quoted as saying
that the Red SoX were in the market
for 100000. II sold, however, the
club is likely to change hands at quite
a bit under this figure.
So popular has the $3.50 starting
hour proven, not only with the play
ers. but with the fans as well, that

Aleer went on record as favoring the
earlier hour and the owners agreed

that he will obtain control of the Red

greatly pleased with conditions here. He
was particularly gratified with the con-
tinued good attendance at National

now that Washington has a real plant,
the large crowds may be expected daily.

There is no chance Of ST. Stephens
beating Naval Medico out in the pen
nant race. The Medicos have two more
games TO play while ST Stephens has
three. If the doctors lose both Of their
games and the Georgetown boys win
all of theirs the standing would then
be: Naval Medico, won q, lost 1. per
centage $40; st. Stephens, won 20; lost
8, percentage, 800.
Naval Medicos scored ten runs in the
second and third innings on eleven hits
and two errors.
Corcoran put up a good fight in the
last two innings, sending seven runs
over the platter. Their best chance to
tie 1t up came in the fifth, with a man
on second and Mullineaux, a timely hit
ter, at the bat. Mullineaux drove the
ball at Rice, the latter fielding 1t per-
fectly and throwing the Frenchman out
at first I This play ended the game, as
Brooks called it at the beginning Of
