Magnates Say Spring Training Trips
Are Too Long. .-


Magazine several baseball magnates
declare that the spring training trips |
for big league teams have gotten be-
yond their original purpose and have
become necessary evils. L
Comiskey, Dreyfuss. Navin, Bar
nard, Bancroft and Murphy all agree |
that the trips are too long and too |
expensive for the amount of good |
done. So many men are in the
squads, according to the owners, that /
they do not all have an opportunity
to make good and the manager is
unable to oversee the work of his |
youngsters.
Comiskey has no kick on the finanS i
cial end this year, as his teams have
earned a good profit in California. |
The weather has also been unusually /
good and the men are in excellent |
condition. The trip last year to Waco,
Tex, where rain was encountered al |
most daily, is an example of the real
son some owners object to long trips.
Murphy has no kick coming this |
year, as sunshine was regular diet
at Tampa Only since leaving the
Florida city have the Cubs been both |
cred by rain.
But with the exception of the two |
Chicago clubs, this training season is
proving bloomer and a strong argu- |
ment in favor of the owners who |
kick on the heavy outlay for the, trips.
Rain has played havoc with the plans |
of nearly every big team, and Cleve-
land and Cincinnati have been forced |
to change their camps in disgust.
Detroit has struck trouble, the st. |
Louis Cards ran into a cyclone and |
the other squads experienced like diff
ficulties.
Long spring trips will probably
continue, merely because no manager
wants to bust custom.

supplying ammunition with which to.
create i'll feeling among the Cub ball
players, is that Charley Murphy was
Offered $4,000 cash and three ball
players by an unnamed team in ex-
change for Roger Bresnahan..
. Murphy admitted the offer had
been made, when questioned, but was
peeved because it was given out by,
the other parties to the proposed deal.
Needless to say, Roger will stay with
the Cubs.
Cincinnati or Boston are believed
to have been after Bresnahan. Both
teams need catchers badly When the
deal fell through, however, it was not
necessary to make it public. It will
only be used to further increase the
anger of Jimmy Archer. Murphy's
enemies will point out to Archer that
while Bresnahan is worth more than
$35, 900 and trio of players, the
president doesn't value Jim at $500
year. And that is some foolish
argument.
Archer will be a member of the
Cub team this year, but disgruntled
one if he allows his friends to in
volve him in a jealous row with Bres-
nahan. ~- 49,
Tommy Leach also spiked a rumor
that he was considering job as
manager of one of the Federal
League teams. Leach claimed the re-
port started in Pittsburgh, and was
meant to force him off the Cub team
if possible.

Governor Discusses Question Of Ap-
pointing U. S. ReYsnus Collector.

Governor Goldsborough yesterday
made public letter which he had
written TO Congressman j. Charles
Linthicum setting forth reasons why
the Collectorship of Internal Revenue
should be given Marylsnder.
Among the reasons is the fact that
the great volume of business of the
office comes from Maryland, end that
il a Delawarean were selected the
main Office would probably be removed
to one of the Delaware cities, thus
entsiling great inconvenience to the
employees of the office and loss of cur
rent deposits to Baltimore banks.
The Governors letter followed a
conversation which he had with Con-
gressman Linthicum last week in
which he discussed the matter in the
light of his nine years experien .e as
Collector of Internal Revenue and at
which time he was requested by Mr..
Linthicum to Put his views in writ
