Eight Players the Limit a Club May
Release With Option.

CINCINNATI, Ohio. September 16.-
For the purpose of arranging the maxi
mum number of players on whom a
major league club will be permitted to
retain an option of repurchase for or
during the same season the national
base ball commission yesterday promul-
gated new rule. The commission says
major league clubs will be granted a
reasonable time in which to readjust
their 1872 optional deals so as to conform
to the new regulation, which reads as
follows:
The release by ma or league club of
more than eight of its players for or
during the same season to national as
ISOLATION FclubS under sales agreement
containing a clause comforting on the re-

The visiting golfers were entertained
last night by the Apawamis Club with
clam bake The one question discussed
was the final round today and the
chances of Hilton carrying the Have
meyer cup. which represents the golf
championship of this country, to the
ROYAL Liverpool Golf Club. and of adding
the American title to his English holding.
Herreshoff did not lack for supporters,
but Hilton was the favorite with those
who were disposed to wager at odds of
4 to a. Under favorable conditions
huge gallery will follow the fortunes of
the PLAYERS from green to green.

In position of trying to control sport
which 1t is not permitted to conduct in its
own state. and it would be placed in a
rather peculiar position if it tried TO pre-
vent horsemen from racing at some other
point. II is understood that. while the
meeting at Laurel may not be sanctioned
by the Jockey Club. no action will be
taken against the horsemen who race
there.
A shake-up in the New York High
landers is promised before the next sea-
son opens, and if reports are true there
will be good chance for some OF the
other clubs in the league to strengthen
their forces with material which. il is
said New York is willing to let out.
Following on the heels OF the request for
waivers on Pitchers Vaughn and Quinn
comes the report that Owner Farrell is
also tired of paying salaries to Knight
and Gardner, two ball players who have
impressed the fans in other cities with
their prowess. There is not team in
the league which would not be benefited
by the acquisition of these four players.

matter to rid his team of them Wash

the Athletics winning, the attendance al
Philadelphia has been none too good, and
a majority OF the spectators pay but %
cents to witness base ball.
But there is another reason for the
anxiety to have the Giants win. In
1905 the Giants made Mack's team look
rather cheap in the worlds series and
the Philadelphia fans want revenge.
1t is believed that Mack's present team
stands a much better chance to win
the series from the Giants than did
the team in 1905. because there is no
Doubt that the Athletics of today are
much stronger than they were at that
time

The Cardinals have just finished
