took possession OF the Islands
In the name OF Great Brltaln.

and his warning to Manager Duffy
coupled with the assertion that he would
not be satisfied TO play under him. do not
indicate that the player was as intent on
securing employment as on blocking any
deal the Washington club made for his
release.
He applied for his outright release last
fall. as soon as the Washington club
changed managers, and contending that
he is practically incapacitated from play
ing base ball he protests that he has not
had an opportunity 70 earn a livelihood
at his calling. 1t develops that he has
been under contract for 1912 and instruct
ed to report TO the Washington club and
has declined according TO the evidence
submitted by him, three opportunities 10
secure desirable class a minor league
engagements. The commission rules that
the deal between the Washington and
Milwaukee clubs for the release OF this
player was closed and became valid on
the acceptance of the Milwaukee clubs
offer by the Washington club. The con-
tention OF the Washington club is sus-
tanned, but the commission Will not re-
ouire the payment OF the consideration
for the players release until he reports In
shape for service to the Milwaukee club,
which should protect its title to his serv-
ices by supending him for failure to re-
port This transfer or the player to the
Milwaukee club terminated his connec-
ton with the Washington club and he is
hereby directed TO forthwith report to
the Milwaukee club.
