TURNS DOWN
ENORMOUS OFFER
Owner of Chicago Cubs Refuses
to Sell His interests for
$4,000.
WILL PAY in CASH

Charles p. Taft, majority stock
holder of the Chicago (National
League) Club. yesterday refused an
offer of $4,000 in cash for the club
made by John T. Connery and Frank
D. Mayer, representing a syndicate
of Chicago capitalists, who desired to
purchase. Tho price that Taft has
asked for the club was not announced.
Following a meeting with Taft,
Connery and Mayer last night gave
out this statement:
after a conference with Governor
Tener in Harrisburg, Pa, Sunday we
made proposition to Mr.. Taft to pay
him $750,O00 in cash for all of the stock
of the Chicago National League)
Club, which offer he declined, stating
he would not accept any other price
than that named in his original prop
osition to Mr.. Connery.
HE states. further, that If he does
not sell to us. he will keep the club
and run 1t himself.
I'VE are not at liberty to name the
price at which Mr.. Taft holds the
club.
MIR. Taft states that the expects to
be in Chicago in the next few days,
at which time we may or may not
continue our negotiations.
las far as we are concerned. we
believe that the offer made by US
is very liberal one, In view of the
existing conditions, which will entail
an additional outlay of approximately
$780, 900 for a new grandstand and

Elizabeth Heavyweight Finishes
Max Edelmaier in Third
Round at TrOXler's.

AL. McCloskey, of Elizabeth, dis
posed of Max Edelmaier, of New York.
in the third round of a scheduled four
round bout at the Central Institute
last night. The latter was about out
standing up in the third session, and
the referee waved McCloskey to his
corner, declaring him the victor. Nc
Closkey was by far the heavier man,
but his weight was hardly any ad-
vantage, and had his opponent pos
sessed any kind of a wallop at all,
things would have probably resulted
differently Matt Matter, of Pater-
son, was to have met McClosNoy, but
was unable to go on, owing 70 IN in
judy.
Fred Massey was the better slug-
ger in his bout with Young Sal2man
and was therefore entitled to victory
in four rounds. Neither knew the art
of science or boxing skill and simply
waded in, smuggling and clinching
throughout.
After being floored for eight counts
at the start of the bout by Young
McCarty, of Vailsburg, Young Sim
mons, of Elizabeth, came back and
returned the compliment against the
Vailsburg youth. McCarty then re-
fused to continue.
Ed Seidel looked too vicious for
Johnny Rowland and the latter prac-
tically forced himself to defeat. Two
rights to the jaw sent Rowland to
the mat and he decided that he had
enough.
Young Daley beat Carl Saloman,
Tommy Ryan won from Young Perry,
Bob Grill took Frank Burk into camp
and Willie Farese and Kid Leblein
boxed a four-round draw.

CONVEY EXPECTED
TO IMPROVE PLAY
English Experts Campaign of
Attack Tomorrow Awaited
With Interest.
GOULD NEEDS THREE SETS

PHILADELPHIA, March 17.-With
JAY Gould, the American amateur
champion, holding the advantage of
four sets to none over George +.
Convey, OF England, the professional
title-holder, in their contest for the
worlds championship court tennis
honor, experts are figuring on how
the Englishman will plan his cam
paign of attack tomorrow in the sec
ond match of the series. In the
opinion of experts who saw yester-
days games, the play of Mr.. Gould
has never been equalled. He ap-
parently had no trouble in handling
the old-fashioned English service put
forth by Covey, and in all-around
play he was the master at all points
His getting of hard balls they say
was wonderful, and he executed the
most difficult shots with an ease
brought about by the most perfect
timing of the ball. Goulds protec-
ton of the "Dedan" was invincible,
and his carefully soft
shots to the foot of the "tambour'
were deadly in point winning.
Some experts say Covey was off
form yesterday, and they look for
him to make better showing in the
remaining matches. The English SER
vice, in which he was reputed to be
strong, was nothing like as severe
as the railroad service of Gould, and
at times he was weak in his floor
strokes. Before the match it was ex-
pected by many that the professional
would have something up his
sleeve" but if he had it was lost to
sight by the brilliant play of his OPP
ponent.
The contest will continue until one
man wins seven sets. In order to re-
tain his title Covey viii have to win
seven, while it is necessary for Gould
to take only three more sets to gain
the championship. If the English
man wins two of the three sets
scheduled for tomorrow. the deciding
sets will be played on Saturday.

So far advanced have the Balti-
more Federals gotten in their train
ing during the comparatively short
time they have been encamped at
Southern Pines, n. c., that yester-
day afternoon Manager Otto Knabe
staged the first practise game of the
season, the regulars trimming the
yannigans, captained by Jack Quinn,
s to 1.
Mike Doolan. the late Philly, who
has been assigned to take care of the
short field for the Terrapins, was the
main attraction. Mike is in superb
shape as the result of the trip around
the world with the Giants and White
Sox, and he propelled the pellet
around the bases with such velocity
yesterday that, as Benny Meyer put
1t, it was enough to give player not
in good shape a sore arm to watch
him.
The former Quaker stars throws
were fast and accurate, his fielding
was of such a brilliant order that
frequent outbursts of applause came
from the audience. Doolan fits in the
inner-works of the Terrapins as nice
ly as could be imagined. AS a fielder
he is conceded to be one of the best,
and the ball-playing dentist also has
his share of baseball brains. With
Knabe at second, Swacina at the
initial hassock and Walsh or Kirk
patrick third, the Baltimore club
claims the best infield in the Federal
League. and from what has already
been shown, their claim is certainly
justified.

THREE TEAMS NOW
WANT TOM SEATON
Phillies Seek Pitcher, Who
Is Signed by Brooklyn
Outlaws.
PRACTISES WITH TINKER

Tom Seaton, the pitcher who ac-
cepted terms with the Phillies before
Hopping to Brooklyn Federal League
club, occupies the centre of the base
ball stage just now. Seaton has been
working with the Chicago Federals
at Shreveport, La, and until Satur-
day James A. Gilmore. president of
the new organization, was there to
keep Seaton satisfied with OUTLAW"
surroundings. Now William F.
Baker, president of the Philadelphia
Nationals, is renewing his efforts to
get Seaton in organized baseball
again, and the Brooklyn Federals are
awaiting Seaton's coming to the
training camp of that club, at CO.
lumbia, S. c.
At National League headquarters
yesterday 1t was said that Seaton
had accepted the Philadelphia club
owners terms and conditions of a
contract before the pitcher was finally
lured away. Since talking with Gill
more in this city, Baker is more than
ever convinced that the tall twirler's
services are legally bound to the
Quakers. The player occupies the po-
sition of being wanted by two Fed
eral League teams and the club from
WHICH ne JuInp6u. L ne ClllCdBO IT GUS
through Joe Tinker, are prepared to
trade with the Brookfeds for the lat
ter clubs claim on Seaton. Walter
S. Ward, treasurer of the Brookfeds,
is confident that the player will land
with the players at Columbia within
a few days.
"Seaton did not sign with the Phil
lies," declared Walter S. Ware last
night, land I have his signed con-
tract before me now. He is perfectly
satisfied with the terms offered by
us and his delay in reporting was
caused only by his eagerness to get
in a few extra days of work with the
Chifeds.
An adjustment of the Seaton case
has been talked of along lines that
involve the return of Bill Killifer
from the Quakers camp to the Fed
erals, but thus far the NATIONAL
Leaguers have not been disposed to
give up claims to either of the
players.
