Buck OBrien, the former Boston
and Denver spitball finger, who was
expected to constitute part of the ma
terial for next years Oakland pitching
starr, has hied himself away from the
Pacific Coast and is not likely to re-
turn. In fact, Buck has told the Oak

Trouble developed, it was learned
to-day, when the pitcher was asked
two weeks ago to sign 1914 contract,
Buck demanded a big league salary,
according to Manager Arthur Devlin,
the EXPLOSION National third base
man, and also wanted his transporta-
ton to Boston and return.
The result was that O'Brien packed
up ana departed in huff, vowing to
take the stage and stay there.
