draft OF PLAYERS
down TO MINIMUM
Few Taken From Minor
Ranks by the Big Leagues
This Year
WAR KEEPS FEDS
OUT OF LIMELIGHT

No announcement OF the result Of
the drafting season has been made by
the major league clubs thus far, all
the work being done in secret. but il
is understood that comparatively few
players will be taken from the minors
by the two big organizations. There
are several reasons for this The
drafting was secret this year so that
the Federal league magnates could
not be tipped off concerning the de-
sirable talent in the smaller circuits.
Few OF the men drafted remain with
the majors, most Of them being re-
turned or sent to some other club for
further development
This is what the minor league play
ers are finding fault with The Fed
eral league officials declare they viii
have about so players from the ma
ior leagues next season, but by the
time they count up their losses from
this season. they will not be so
anxious to pay fancy prices to lure
players from the major league ranks.
But they will very likely turn their
uThEMtNN NU Nni NnAuAinf anu AAin 70
just what the magnates Of organized
baseball have been guarding against.
Had organized baseball made pub
lie its draft list It would give the Fed
eral league an opportunity Of going
after the drafted players and il would
force organized baseball clubs TO biu
against the Federals TO get the play
ers they wanted 70 either keep with
the minors or advance TO the majors.
The secret draft, however, will upset
the F'ederals plans, and IL will pre-
vent the players selected by draft from
holding up the club owners or organ
lied baseball by using offers made by
the Federals to boost their salaries.
There has been very little heard Of
the Federals lately. owing TO the news
OF the European war crowding the
columns OF the newspapers. The
general depression caused by the con-
flict IN Europe has had its effect on
baseball. This season promised to be
one of the worst in the history of the
game until the Braves and Giants
hooked up In their whirlwind finish
for the National league race. The Ma.
tional race will help several clubs out
Of a hole this season, but others will
lose money. and the Federals have felt
the blow along with organized base

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-The envel-
oping movement of the allies directed
against the flank Of General Won Nc
Graw is now all but completed. The
brilliant charges from the direction
of Boston, which have carried the
Braves from the swampy ground of
the valley to the heights of First
Place, from which they are now shoot
ing large gaping holes through all
invaders are as strong as ever
The Giants are no longer advanc-
ing Every indication is that they
are in full retreat. Unless the Giants
find their cunning eye and begin to
gather in a few hits. the Braves will
have the pennant hog-tied before Sep
tember 30, when the series which
was expected to be the greatest bat
tie of the year Will open.
The offensive strategy of baseball
being, in a broad sense, to hit the
ball advance men around the bases
and score runs, II would appear that
the Giant general staff has had its
cards gummed somewhere. The Gil
ants appear to know the plate mere
ly as a little spot which the umpire
dusts and about which they loiter
while watching the offerings of op-
posing pitchers whizz by.
They have not scored a run in
eighteen innings and over the same
stretch have made just ten hits, seven
Monday and three Tuesday. On the
other hand, the Braves have scored
IA runs and walloped out 21 hits dur
ing the same interval. The Braves
