Decision.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special dispatch TO The Star.
PITTSBURGH. Pa, April 11-President
Barney Dreyfuss of the Pittsburgh Ma
tional League club was asked today
what construction he placed on the hill
lifer decision in relation to Hendrix and
Simon. who jumped to the Federals
while on the reserve list of the Pirates
said Mr.. Dreyfuss:
Il consider that the decision gives me
an easy time in stopping Hendrix and
Simon from playing with the Federal
League. as they belong to Pittsburgh
without doubt. according to Judge Ses-
sions, who heard the Killifer case But
that does not enter into it with me. I
don't care a continental whether I can
get the men back or not. according to
law.
Il wouldn't have them back no matter
what the decision was. The Killifer case
doesn't alter the fact that Hendrix and
simon showed their ingratitude by jump
ing to the Federal League. as we'll as
showed that they were not caring much
Tor their honor as men. When I sign
ball player I want him to be a man
as well. and if he isn't a man Of integ-
rety and honor I don't want him, no
matter how good a ball player he Is.
There are surely enough good players
left who value their obligations, without
bothering about a couple Of fellows who
fell short Of honor and integrity. For
the last time let me say that do not
know Hendrix and Simon as major league
ball players, and will never recognize
them again as long as I am in the busi-
ness as a team owner.
