Fultz Is in Wrong.

Recently Dave Fultz, the former mem
Der OF the Athletics, who is the president
OF the Baseball Players Protective Asso-
citation. cited the case Of Jim Delahanty
as one in which a player had been badly
treated. This has caused z. A Batch
elder. of the Detroit Free Press, to dig
up some facts.
Batchelder writes:
Here is how Delahanty was handed
the worst OF It by President Nayin. He
was given an unconditional release, which
made it possible for him to sign up where
he pleased. This meant that Mr.. Navin
passed up G chance to sell the player for
a good sum or to trade him advantage
ousIy.
Jim was signed to a contract calling
for $500 a year, With a bonus of 500
IL he played good ball throughout the
season, the matter of the vzIue OF his
service being left to the club TO decide.
When released he was paid the portion
of this bonus that was due on the date
he left. figured on the basis Of 800 for
the season.
.'He Immediately signed with the MIN
neapolIs club for a nice tidy sum and
received an additional bonus OF 500 for
affixing bis autograph to Cantillon's con-
tract. From the proceeds OF the post
season series between the Mniers and
the Denver club, Of the Western League,
another $500 came his way, though he
vas In such poor physical condition that
he could not play in that series. Also
he has an agreement with the Minneap-
opIs management whereby he receives
every cent OF any money that may be
paid in the event Of his being drafted
or purchased.
at can easily be figured. therefore,
that DeIahanty, who was cast adrift by
the Tigers because he no longer was
capable Of delivering big league quality
Of baseball, was given the opportunity
OF making considerable more money than
would have come to him had he finished
the season here"

McGraw Manager for Life.

When John 7. Brush died this week Il
was feared that the management Of the
New York Giants would be left largely In
the hands Of his wife, says Billy weart.
In the Philadelphia Telegraph. The ef-
feet Of "suftragette management in the
ST. Louis Nationals has been so disas-
trous that 1t is felt by baseball men that
the time has not yet arrived when q
woman can properly handle all the affairs
Of major league club.
Mr.. Brush. who fought death for years
with a gameness which won the admira-
ton OF all who were acquainted with the
facts. appears to have made elaborate
preparations TO prevent any mix-ups in
the running Of the Giants either through
the business ONCE or on the playing field
II is declared that some time before his
death he arranged for the taking care Of
the Giants in such a way that there
would be no friction between the clubs
officers and the teams manager.
McGraw. Il Is reported. has been given
a life contract with the club with the I'M
Outstanding that he Is never to be inter-
fered with regarding the handling OF the
players. This was the case when Mr..
Brush lived, and McGraw will continue to
have a free hand. The business end of
the club will be looked after by H N
Hampstead. OF Indianapolis, who has
succeeded Brush as president OF the club.
Mr.. Hampstead was Mr.. Brush's brother
in-law.

Tribute to Nationals.

When the baseball season came to q
close many fans held the opinion that
the showing Of the Washington club this
year was more or less OF q fulce, say.
Mark Roth, In the New York Globe.
They formed that conclusion because the
Nationals were habItuaI tailenders- But
the club deserves great credit for the
great exhibition II gave this season.
Many folks think that Washington win
be one OF the contenders in the American
League race again next season.
The reason that the Washington club
was up in the race all season was due
largely to the fact that they have three

and made II all the better. There wasn't
any huke stun about the work Washing

circuit this season. Watch them next
year. They will make Il very interesting
for every club in the race next year.
They have the pitchers. and that Is
what a club needs above everything else.
