MACK STOLE MY PLAYERS"
IlaDlOn speaks Of American League
StRrt-Says Every KNOCKS a BOOST.

BALTIMORE. Jan. ?.-Conne Mack's
statement that Ned Hanlon wouldn't lend
90 cents on a five dollar gold piece and
that he wanted tn lease dump" TO the
Federal League for bali ground has
made Hanlon hot.
First Of all let me say that Connie
Mack and none Of the rest of the organized
baseball players need do any worrying
over us" said Hanlon to-day. I'VE are
in the Federal League to stay and any
effort to knock the proposition by or
canzed baseball people will be construed
only in the nature of a boost by the
ba sebail public.
1T is truly amusing TO see what Mack
says about profits. He entered baseball
with the proyerbial shoestring. and no
one will deny that his fortune now is
surely close to "A million. He made II
out Of baseball and he made II out OF
"A movement somewhat similar to the
present one. lie Joined the American
League movement in its war with the
Nationals and did not hesitate TO induce
men to- jump contracts. something the
tederals are not doing. ! know whereof
speak, for III took men from Brooklyn.
which then was managing.
Il would also like to ask Mack where
all the money came from that resulted
in all of the palatial ball parks being
erected during the last decade. Owners
hardly build stands just for the sake of
seeing them go up.
Concerning the personal remarks ]
prefer not to enter into n controversy.
but passing them up would be almost
admission. Up TO this time ! have not
said anything about the money have
invested in the local Federal League club,
but | will now state cmphaticaly that
! have more in the new movement in this
city than any other individual"
