DOC cRANDALL JUMPS.
pOC SHANDALL JONlTS- Has Jumped To The St. Louis Fed-
 erals.

The staggering shock the Giants ex- perienced last fall when they attempt ed to beat the Athletics was nothing compared with the setback they have just received when it was announced that "Old Doc'' Crandau had jumped to the St. Louis Federals.
 Everybody remembers Crandall. He's the fellow who had permanent headquarters in deep right held at the Polo Grounds On the first day o1 every season, Otis started to warm up" and when taps were sounded on the season Doe" was still out Tn his field office warming up. For seV- eral seasons he has led the league at warming up." In his day he has done more pinch pitching than any player in the league.
 Whenever the enemy got obstreper- ous and started to dent the service oi the regular hurlers, the alarm for help was sounded from the Giant bench and in came Crandall. His task was not to save the game as much as to make the defeat look less humiliat- ing. Nevertheless, there were times when Doc" stemmed the tide of de- feat in close games and halted the enemy at critical moments of their batting madness
 Also, there were times when Gran dall performed as pinch hitter. Otis had a wide, free swing. like the Stars and Stripes in a breeze and if he hit the old ball, by cracky. it went some where. New York fans will always have a warm spot in their hearts for Otis Crandall, for a rescuer of fal- tering pitchers he did yoeman's work Otis pitched more, warmed up more than other boxmen pitched in a nine inning game. The only time he was not in right field exercising his arm was when he slept in at his Harlem hotel and didn't get to the ball park on time.
 Last season Crandall. for want of work, fattened up considerably. He took jaunts before breakfast, took Turkish baths, and wore a rubber shirt. but he failed to get down to that weight where a hurried trip to second base would be anything less than an imitation of Truck going to a fire.
 This year the Giants have so many young pitchers that CrandalPs salary was not raised to the Federal League standard, so he decided to desert the Giants and play with Miner Brown, who also used to be a pitcher.
 Grover Cleveland Hartley, who went to Cincinnati in the Herzog trade, has also cast his lot with the St. Louis EederalS.

chicaao Men After Stock.

Chicago, Feb. 23-Tyo syndicates of Chicago business men are rivals in bidding for the control of the Chi cago National League club the base ball organization now owned prin- cipally by Charles P. Taft of Cincin- nati, since he took over the interests of Charles w Murphy Saturday night.
 A bid of $700,00O for MT. Taft's stock by a coterie of Cub fans was made today and word reached their representative, Louis J. Behan that MT. Taft would give them considera- tion with the other bidders, so a com mittee of three will go to Cincinnati tomorrow night to see him.
 The Behan bid was distinct from the proposition made by the syndicate headed by William Hale Thompson, who asked that MT Taft submit to him and James A. Pugh and Charles A. McCulloch appearance for his hold ings.
 News from Cincinnati that there were several bids for the Cubs led Chicago fans to believe that other cap italists of this city are anxious to buy the stock.
 It was said today that a, number Of Chicagoans in addition to the Behan committee would travel to Cincinnati to see DLr Taft personally about their propositions.

TAFT MIGHT SELL HIS SHARE.
Taft Undecided Whether to SeHas Offer From Two Chi cago Men-J. Behan Made Proposition to Taft-Re- ceived Bid of $700,000 For His Share

Cincinnati, Ohio, Feb. 23-The prob ability that a majority of the stock of the Chicago National League club will not remain long in the possession of Charles P Taft, Cincinnati capitalist who purchased it on last Saturday from Charles w. Murphy. was indi : cated today when it was announced that Mir Taft had received numerous offers for the stock and was not dis inclined to listen to propositions look ing toward the sale of his interests. ~ It is more than probable that one body of men and possibly more will arrive in this city tomorrow to hold conferences with Mir. Taft The one proposition that is known to have been made, that from Louis J. Behan of Chicago. representing a syndicate of men from that city, appears to have impressed MT. Taft, although in an nouncing that he had answered a tel egram from MT. Behan today AIr. Taft wished 1t decidedly understood that he is considering a number of prop ositions and was far from making up his mind on any of them
 With the exception of the Behau offer, the names of the men making the other propositions were not given out
 The apparent negotiations for the purchase of the stock owned by Mir Taft indicate that it will be some time before the announcement of the Qamo of the next president of the Cubs will be made. This is made certain by tue knowledge that Mir. Taft now owns the controlling interest in the club and it is understood he will not consider call ing a meeting of the club until he has finally decided whether he desires to sell his stock.
