Indianapolis, Ind, April ED
Sweeney, the hold-out catcher, arrived
here yesterday morning for a confer
ence with Manager WolvertOn of the
High anders, and with him came a
healthy snowstorm. The snow reach
ed almost blizzard proportions in the
morning and a game was out OF the
question, but the Hillmen were not
cheated out of practice, and good
practice 1T was.
The players passed most of the
morning playing billiards, and after
Chase had taken a fall out of Wolver-
ton, and Ford and Sweeney had re-
newed their acquaintance over the
green cloth, Wolverton and Sweeney
went into private session. They were
in conference for more than an hour
and when it was over Sweeney said
he was going back to Chicago and
that it did not look favorable for his
coming to terms with the club.
There's nothing doing so far" said
Wolverton. 81 gave Sweeney some
thing to think over, but the matter
must be settled one way or the other
today. shall not. fool away any
more time on it,"
So unless Sweeney changes his mind
he will not be a member of the New
York Americans this year. Another
noted hold-out in the hotel corridor
was Owen Bush of the Detroit Tigers,
and the two hold-outs shook hands
with each other.

THEY ALL WANT
To MARRY 0'TOOLE
Pittsburg Star Gets Proposals
From Many Girls Who Want
To Share His Salary

Marty O'Toole, the $25, 900 pitcher Sc
cured by Pittsburgh last year from the
American association, is in a bad fix.
Recently in kidding match with a
Pittsburgh newspaperman he stated
he was not married, but was only
waiting for some nice, pretty sensible
girl to either propose to him or to
make it easy for him to do so and he
would quickly get into the marriage
stakes. AS a result poor ORIOLES
over the country have written him,
proposing that they take the name of
O'Toole and help him spend the fab
ulous salary he is supposed to receive
yearly from the Pittsburgh team. Here
are a few of them handed over by
O'Toole with the only provision that
the young women's names be not men,
toned.
LAS I have seen in the Pittsburgh
papers that you are wanting a wife
take the liberty of writing to you.

feet six inches in height, and weigh

will send one later. Please answer
promptly, and I am sure we wills be-
come better acquainted, as I am near
| enough to Pitstburg for you to run
down to see me some day when you
are not pitching
Another young woman living in
than the Wellsburg girl She writes:
II am head over heels in love with
you, Mr. OToole, and all want and
all I ask for is to be given a chance
to make you love me. I am eighteen
years old, five feet one inch tall,
weighing $50 pounds, and I have a
good education. I am grea lover
of baseball, and particularly of good
pitching. I do not know how good a
batsman you are, but you have made
hit with me and I would like to
make a home run with you. ADJ

and papa would scold If they knew I

A girl writing from Wheeling, W.

young men she knows are $50 insipid. -
She wants a husband who amounts to
something in the world, and while she
is not certain that Mr.. OfToole will
suit her, she says she intends to go
to ST. Louis for the opening game,
and will arrange to meet him in the

GIANTS DEFEAT
WASHINGTON TEAM
Johnson Holds McGraw'S Men
Down, but They Hit Beecher
Hard

Washington, d. c., April 3.-Mc-
Graw's Giants romped away with an
easy to victory over Clark Grit
fth's Senators here yesterday after
noon by taking advantage Of South
paw Becker's wildness in the last two
innings. hammering out five tallies
and fracturing a to tie. This ex-
hibition game was widely advertised,
and big crowd turned out, as it was
announced Monday that Christie
Johnson, the Kansas Cyclone, during
the first five innings, but when the
game opened McGraw sent RUDE Mar
guard into the box. The Giants boss
gave no reason for substituting Mar
guard for the peerless one. and the
crowd let out an angry roar, which
can still be heard around town.
Marquard had just about every
thing. He yielded five hits in as
many innings. and that the Senators
were able to score at all was due to
a misjudged fly ball by Devore, which
the wind carried out of reach. -,
Walter Johnson's great speed did
not seem to bother the New Workers
much The big Swede was roughly
handled during the first four innings,
when TIMELY drives scored trio of
tallies. Snodgrass, Merkle, Devore.
and Doyle produced the bat music,
and Chief Meyers walloped the first
bail pitched to him for a double.
After Johnson had worked five in
nings Manager Griffith Of the Sena-
tors sent in Buck Becker, ''the pride
of the Navy Yard Becker has just
invented a new curve which he calls
'the battleship sinker," and Griffith
wanted to turn it loose on. a real ball
club.
"The pride of the navy yard got
away with it for two innings, but in
the eighth and ninth innings his ia
nous sinker ball refused to work. He
got himself into all sorts Of holes,
and every time the bases were loaded
some New York would unload base
hit. Tallies came thick and fast and
when the final count was made New
York was five runs in front.
Red Ames relieved Marquard, and
was puzzle in all excepting the
seventh inning, when a triple, stolen
base, a muff by the pitcher himself,
and a timely single by Shanks added
enough runs for the home team to tie
the score.
