ing the trick. Litchfield was on the rub
ber for the winners. and what the au-

worth mentioning. His control was ex-
ceedingly good for left-hander. and his
curves were breaking nicely. which, to-
gether with some terrific speed. made him
master of the situation throughout the
contest. The final score was 3 to I.

CLEVELAND, August 1s.-Cy Young S
major league career may be ended.
Perhaps never again will the powerful
voice Of an announcer shout his name
as a pitcher in a major league base ball
park.
But Cy Youngs name and fame will
long prove a drawing card when promi-
nent players of today have passed into
oblivion, seldom to be heard Of again.
The veteran isn't worrying. 1t is doubt
full IL he ever worried in his life. At
least, no one ever was able to detect
him In a detected mood.
Yesterday the corridors of the Colonial
Hotel echoed continually with his name.
Scarcely five minutes passed without a
telegram being received for him.
Notice of his release travelled like the
wind Offers for his services came in
a similar manner. If there Is league
in the country not represented In the
bushel of kilograms he received one
No player in the history Of base ball
ever received SO many offers for his
services. Some clubs offered to pay him
an extraordinary salary. Others onered
a salary and a percentage OF the gate re,
ceipts. The Lynn. Mass. club capped
the climax by offering him both OF the
things mentioned, together with share
in the franchise of the club.
Considers All Offers.
He has received dozens of offers.
calling for a salary, in excess Of that
received from the Cleveland club-and
Cy didn't draw a mean stipend here
either.
To all he gave the same answer. that
he would consider the proposition.
Wise managers see in Young's great
reputation the opportunity to. fill ball
parks. 1t is doubtful II even Ty Cobb,
Christy Mathewson, Hans Wagner or
Nap Lajoie could draw larger crowds
to minor league park than Cy Young.
Cy bears with him the asset of twen-
ty years wide advertising. He has
received more notices than any ball
player living. There's not soul in
this broad land who ever read g. line
Of base ball who doesn't know about
the grand old man of the game"
Probably Cy will finish by signing
with some American Association team
in order to be near home.
His greatest desire Is to get with
some other club in the American
