IMPORTANT HORSE TRANSFERS
Billings Now Owns INLAND, Lou Dill
lon and The Harvester

The horse world has been stirred
within the past few days by two
very important transfers, the pass
ing of The Harvester, 2.01, from the
estate of the late August Uhlein to
C. X. G. Billings, and the sale OF
Bingen 2.06A, by William Bradley to
David NJ. Look, says Frank G. Trott
in the Boston Globe.
That the champion stallion should
become a stable companion to Uhlan
was not unexpected, but the change
in ownership of the wonderful son
of May King to a New England man
was very much of a surprise.
II has been in the air for months
that Mr. Billings desired The Har
vester to make his list Of champion
trotters complete and when it was
announced that DOC" Tanner was
to take Uhlan to Russia there was
not much doubt that the Harvester
would make the trip also.
Mr.. Billings now has the honor OF
owning the fastest trotting stallion
mare and gelding.
Lou Dillon has passed her turf
career, but Uhlan and The Harvester
have not II is generally believed
reached the top of theirs. The stall
lion and the gelding. however. vii
have little opportunity this year tC
better their records, and Tanner vii
not take anything more out Of then
on the European tour than is neces
sary. planning no very fast miles OF
their return home this fall. Mex
year both will be fitted for the su
preme effort
The price for which The Harvester
sold has not been made public, bu
Joe Marley, who represented Mr.
Billings in the transaction, is auth
ority for the statement that il wai
more than $4,000.
Early in the winter an upset figure
OF $4,000 was put on the stallion
king but il is believed that the sell
ing price was considerably lower
The Harvester will now pass from
the hands of Ed Geers to those o.
Charles Tanner. and will remain al
Memphis until shipped North to sal
for Hamburg on April Is.

New York, Marcn 23.-Within ten
days Charley Herzog Of the Giants
will receive a check for S375; easy
money for a ball player at this time
of the year This windfall is the re-
suit of ruling by the National Base
ball Commission in the case Of Her
zog against the Reading club of the
TriState League in 1910. Herzog
recommended a pitcher named Hor-
sey to the Reading club with an
agreement that one-half of any draft
or purchase money received for Hor.
sey in 1910 or 1911 should be paid
over TO the Giant
Cincinnati drafted Horsey for $3.50
but the Reading club refused to set
tie declaring that the agreement
with Herzog was invalid because il
had not been approved by the clubs
board of directors The commission
sustains Herzog, and the reading
club must come across with S75 iron
men.
Charles A. Deal, a ball player act
ing as free agent. signed a contract
with the Philadelphia Nationals last
year and later was released to the
Lancaster club at a reduced salary
His appeal to the National Commits
sion has resulted in the restoration
OF his freedom, as the finding in the
case sets forth that the Philadelphia
club had no legal right to transfer
his services without his consent.
