WHO OWNS JORDAN.
ASKS MR.. DREYFUSS

NEW YORK, Dec. l7.-Barnsy
Dreyfuss. owner OF the Pitsburgs, 10
in quandary. He said he Is ready
to pay a good, stiff price for First
Baseman Tim Jordan, blu tdoes not
know Just who was entitled to the
money. Jordan played frst base for
the Toronto Eastern League team last
summer. and made such a fine record
with the stick that Dreyfuss' Aten-
ton was attracted.
Dreyfus came to the baseball con-
clave last week prepared to hand
over as much as $1,000 to the Toronto
club for Jordan. Blu tas soon as the
subject was preached the Pittsburg
magnate discovered that there was an
underground hitch Of some kind, and
also learned that the Brooklyn club
was mixed up in it,
Il cannot find out whether To-
ronto or Brooklyn owns Jordan" said
Dreyffuss If l knew which club
could sell his release I'd buy Il, but
SO far l am stumped."
