UNIQUE RECORD
GIANTS NEW ADJOURNMENT WAS
At ONE TIME IN MUCH
DEMAND.

Chicago, Sept. 2.-Marty O'Toole,
baseball's highest priced athlete, was
sold Tuesday to the New York Giants.
the figure not being made public by
the Pittsburgh owner. No players
were involved in the deal. This came
as climax to McGraw's efforts to get
tho spitball pitcher, efforts which date
back to the days of 1911, when O'Toole
was setting the American Association
afro by his wonderful hurting and be-
coming the most sought for player in
tho game. Sixteen clubs were after
his services, and Dreyfus won out by
minutes, paying $22.500 for his con-
tract and agreeing to TURN over two
players to the st. Paul club.
When the offer for OToole passed
! the $4,000 mark thirteen Of the six.
teen clubs dropped out of the running,
leaving the Chicago White Sox, the
Giants and Pirates still in the fight.
Mike Cantillon was looking after the
Comiskey end of the deal, having or
ders to 60 higher than any other mag
nate, while Wilbur Robinson was Nc
Graw's representative, and Dreyfuss
had his best scout on the Job, with or
ders to get O'Toole at any price.
Secret conferences between Cantil-
Ion, Dreyfuss' man and Robinson were
held with Lennon three or four times a
day for nearly a week, first one and
then the other raising the ante. Fin
ally Cantillon tired of the tangle had
got Lemons promise to consult him
before selling the pitcher, saying ne
would go a little better on behalf of
Comiskey. Robinson got the same
promise, leaving only the Pittsburgh
club in the field.
When Dreyfuss heard OF this he
made secret trip to St. Paul, landing
there Saturday morning The Pirate
owners first act was to get Lennon
into an automobile and go for a long
ride. When he returned the announce
ment was made that he had purchased
the pitcher for $22,500. Shortly after
the check was made out telegram
arrived from McGraw telling Lennon
that his final offer was $4,000, while
Cantillon rushed over from Mime.
apolis to remind Lennon of his prom
Use and to tell him that the Chicago
magnate had ordered him to 60 as
high as $4,000 for the sensation.
Since that time O'Toole's work with
the Pirates has been poor. Waivers
have been asked on him time and
again, only to be withdrawn, and now
the announcement is made that Marty
is to become Giant. McGraw saved
many thousands OF dollars by not
sending that telegram few minutes
earlier. It was announced later that
the message was delayed in transmits
sion.
