Picked the Wrong Man.
George Rice, a Chicago baseball
writer of many years standing, thinks
the Federals are going to crowd Bob
Hedges out of business in St Louis.
That's a conclusion hard to arrive at,
when one remembers that Ban B. john
son. who bosses the American league,
bounced back when he hurled himself
against the defences Of the local mag
nate. However unpopular Hedges may
seem, he still has managed to hold his
grip in the big league world, despite
opposition
Hedges has not done lot of things
for baseball; but in common justice, it
must be remembered that he has done
this much for the game:
Abolished rOWdy baseball, both In
the stands and on the field.
Built the first modern grandstand in
the city.
Banished liquor from his park.
Put the only two first division teams
in this city known in decade
First introduced an announcer for
the benefit of the spectators.
There are other achievements of more
or less important nature to be attrib-
uted to the American league, locally,
chief among which is the winning over
Of feminine support for the game.
Hedges has cleaned up his grandstand
so that women have no fear of being
annoyed by the bOisterous fans, and
the attendance Of the fair sex at the
SpOrtsman's park is one of its notable
features.
Hedges has not given St. Louis a
winner, annually, but that he is an I'M
desirable whom the league would crowd
out seems unreasonable. In fact, every
move Hedges has made is in line with
league president Ban JohnsOn's reform
ideas-that is, every one except the fir
ing of teachers pet James McAIeer. n.

the ascendant, in car Johnson's favor.

Cincinnati this week. did not roam far
from the long distance phone or the
telegraph For the real battle between
the Federals and the majors was ex-
pected to be fought out in Rhineland,
the engagement opening with the
meeting of the National commission.
The most important facts to be noted
in this connection are that:
President Dave Fultz had 500 players
names signed TO his petition asking for
contract reforms.
That the vast bulk of the active ma
jor league players have not signed con-
tracts.
That their signatures depend entirely
on the granting or rejection of the II
changes asked.
That Fultz promised that his men
will respect the reserve clause, in its
main features, If the demands of the
Players Fraternity were recognized.
That the acceptance by the National
commission of the principal features
