Pittsburgh Magnate Against
Scheme to Place Orioles in
Smoky City.

Despite the secrecy thrown around
the conference of the National Com
mission and several of the leading Ma
tional and American League mag
mates in Pittsburgh Saturday night at
the Duquesne Club, information
CLEANED today from a reliable source
that the principal questions debated
at the meeting were the ACCESSIBILITY
of placing the Baltimore International
League team in Pittsburgh to combat
the Federals and the testing in courts
of the reserve clause on which the
whole foundation of organized base
ball rests. In neither question was
an agreement reached.
First and foremost the proposition
to place the Baltimore International
League team in Pittsburgh reused the
ire of Barney Dreyfus. of the. Pi-
ates. Dreyfus absolutely refused to
give his consent to the proposition,
and emphatically stated that no minor
league team working under the ma
tional agreement, would play ball in

new TRAINER FOR
CHAMPION TIGERS
Harry Smith Signs New 'Rub-
Der" Before Leaving Today
for Hot Springs.
|SWACINA HAS JUMPED

| Before leaving for Hot Springs
Ark, today, Manager Harry Smith, OF
the Newark International League
champions, announced that practical
ly all of the Tigers were in the fold
"The exceptions" said Smith, "are
Cy Barger, Maurice Kent, Fred Wal
ker Harry Swacina, apparently, has
jumped Bayard Taylor will sign. I
am sure, as soon as he RECEIVERS from
the effects of his recent bereavement,
having lost his father"
Word comes today from Baltimore
that Harry Swacina, the fiTst-sacixer
for the Tigers last year, was closeted
with officials OF the Baltimore Federal
League Club for an hour yesterday. A
notary public was also in the secret
conference and Swacina came out
smiling. Strict secrecy was maintain
ed, however. following the usual plans
of the Federals. Swacipa came all the
way up to Baltimore from Birming-
him, Ala. That Otto Knabe had asked
Swacina to name his own terms, and
that Swats would probably sign with
the Baltimore team, was first an
nounced in these columns.
Harry Smith stated today that he
had obtained a new trainer for the
champions. The new man Is Eugene
Chandelier, of 1893 Twelfth street,
Brooklyn. He is said to be an expert
massuese and skilled in the art of
using the vibrating machine as well
as applying the violet rays. He has a
very exclusive patronage in Brooklyn,
but he is an ardent fan and ie de-
lighted to accompany baseball team
on a trip to Dixie.
Before leaving for the Hot Springs
Smith also announced that the ques-
ton of the uniforms for the Tigers
had been settled. The Tigers will wear
gray road uniforms, with black
trimmings, and new nnackinaws OF
gray and black with diamond de-
sign running through the goods. Smith
will spend a fortnight at Hot Springs,
Ark, and will then go direct to CO.
lumbus, Ca, where the Tigers will do
their training. The definite date for
the Southwark start by the Bengal
regulars has not been determined. 1t
is expected, however, that Saturday,
February 81, will be the getaway day.

out of three from the Putnam A>quin-
tet; General Dix lost three games In

Wayne. After winning the first two
games, the former lost the third by
margin of five pins.
The Weingarth & Whatton team is
now showing the way in the Essex
County Alley Owners League with
an advantage of three games eacn
way over the LeGlise five, which IS
second. The Weinyites captured three
games in a row from the Kraemer t,
combination on the Weingarth a.

lies on the part of the winners fea-
tured. In the first game the Vein

DkEYFUS VETOES PLAN TO
TRANSFER DUNN'S CLUB

Pittsburgh while he owned the fran
chise. According to laws of organ
lied baseball governing such cases,
Dreyfus has the last word, and he has
already given that in no uncertain
terms.
1t was thought that organized base
ball could sacrifice its possession of
Baltimore as territory for one sea-
son at least The Federal League is a
new thing in Baltimore; IL has been
doomed highly. In battle for the
gate receipts 1T was believed that the
edge would lie with the Federals in
the city that is always clamoring for
major league baseball, and that the
Baltimore franchise could be trans
ferred to Pittsburgh without losing
much. That was Mack's business AT
the convention, to find out if this
transfer could be made and if a mark
could be obtained.
The Pirate president has ALWAYS
been outspoken in his refusal to allow
any of the schemes to bring another
league in organized baseball to Pitts
burgh.
International Pow-wow Monday.
The spring meeting of the Interna-
tional League will be held in New
