The Louisville club of the American
Association has purchased Third
Baseman Midkiff and Outfielder Dam
iels from the Baltimore club of the
International League. The men will
report tomorrow.
Just how Dunn naged to get
these two men out of the Interna-
tional League is a mystery. 1t rather
looks as though the other fellows did
Jack Dunn a friendly turn by laying
off so that Dunn could get good
money for the two men. Then again
some of the wise old foxes might
have figured that the weaker the
Dunnites the better the race.

grounds are extremely rough and the
players are in danger of injury any
moment.
Jack Dunn is at Baltimore, and his
team is in Providence. Donnie left

Neal made good as manager yester-
day, for he brought home a victory.
Jack says he doesn't care whether
the Birds win or lose any more.

FULTz SPUZzLED
OVER KRAFT CASE
Says Hermann practically
Agreed"-Announcement a
Bit Premature.
FRATERNITY HAS cONFAB


That President David Fultz's an
nouncement on Monday that Kraft
had been awarded to Newark was
made prematurely even though in
good faith, is evident from the latest
developments A representative Of
Fultz's called on Garry Hermann at
Cincinnati Saturday and according
to the president OF the fraternity.
Garry Hermann agreed to practical
ly everything that was put up to him,
not only in the Kraft case. but in
ether matters" to quote Fnltz's own
words
The representative. whose Identity
Fultz has not revealed. Immediately
wired the good news to Fultz, who
broke it to Kraft and the newspapers
without delay. Then when he awaited
confirmation from the national
commission. IT was not forthcoming
until last night, when Hermann
wired Fultz that the original decree
still stands.
Kraft's Ire was aroused at the Sec
ond delay when he had expected
everything as good as settled and he
is vehment today In his declaration
that the commission can never make
him go to Nashville against his will
if he has to fight the case for weeks
and months.
The Players fraternity held a
secret confab at Norwalk, Conn, Sun
day. at which all of the directors up
held Fultz in his stand on the Kraft
case. Fultz has promised to issue
his long delayed statement tomorrow.
but he still has hopes of settling the
case before nightfall, he intimated to-
day.
Because of the efforts of the fra
ternity to get Justice for him, Kraft
has refused to dicker with the Feds,
but now no one can blame him if he
decides to abandon organized base
ball, for his treatment has certainly
been most shabby.

New champion to Be Crowned.

A new amateur champion will be
crowned tonight, and it will prob
ably be Harry Kaiser, of New York.
Kaiser has lead of two points over
Willie Hannley. the only rider who
has chance to win the title, and
in Kaiser's present form he is sure
to win enough points to get the title.
If Hanley wins the race, with Kaiser
third, the latter will win the cham
pionship by one point, and If Kaiser
should finish no better than fourth,
with Hanley the winner, the two will
be tie with IS points each. In the
event Of tie the two riders will
ride match race at a later date
to decide the championship.

Kramer in Pursuit. Race.

Champion Kramer will compete in
pursuit race tonight for the first
time in four years. Seeing the Yam
kee champion in a race of this
kind will be a rare treat, and some
of the old-timers would not be sur
prised to see him returned a winner
The champion has been resting, He
has not been on his wheel since he
dismounted after winning the scratch
race last Sunday, and he said this
morning that he was feeling greatly
improved and expected to give a good
account of himself in the two races
in which he will compete tonight.
There are four great pluggers in the
race tonight in addition to Kramer,
and this pursuit race should be the
best ever staged in Newark. The re-
suit of this race is the biggest kind
of guess, and as the riders will
draw for opponents in the heats some
of the favorites are going to be shut
out in the heats. The favorites are
Grenda, Goullet, Rutt, Kramer and
Clark, but Cavanagh, Spears and Dro-
bach may put the skids under these
stars. Spears rode a great pursuit
race couple of weeks ago and rather
astonished the fans with his ability
to stand a gruelling race. He did
not meet any of the stars in the en-
counter, but there were some good
pluggers that went down before him.

Rutt Riding Fast.

Rutt is riding very fast and has
pressed Goullet hard in many of tine
races which the latter has won And
Rutt might have led the way for the
Australian many times were it not
for his manner of racing The world S
title holder likes to ride from be-
hind and has ridden from the rear IN
nearly every race since his advent in
this country With his strong sprint
Rutt should ride from the front If
he had raced from the front, proc
ably he would have finished first in
many of the races in which he was
placed second. Should the ''weltmeis-
ter change his tactics and ride from
the front In this match, his chances
OF winning would be very bright

Drobach win Take a beating.

-Four years ago Goullet was won
derful rider in pursuit races. Now
that he is a top-notch sprinter, he
may not possess the ability to grind
away, but his showing in handicap
races this season would indicate that
he is as good as ever as hard plug
ger. If Drobach is in good form he
will take some beating. When Goul-
let was at his best as a pursuiter and
won remarkable race from Kramer
on the old track, Drobaeh gave Goul-
let good beating few weeks later
at Providence, and as Peter is much
better rider now, he may even take
down the long end of the purse to-
night. Grenda held the pursuit hon
ors for two years at the Velodrome
and the only rider who ever defeated
the big Tasmanian is Reggie McNa-
mara, who is doing great things in
Europe this season. Grenda should
rank favorite in the race tonight on
past performances. He has beaten
Drobach and other good men, includ-
ing Goullet.

Gouuet should Be the Favorite.

Clark's record is the best, as every
match he has won has been won in
straight heats, and in the match he
lost to Rutt, Jackie took one heat.
But on form, Goullet should rule a
favorite in the race tonight. For
two weeks 'Goullie" has ridden in re-
markable form and has shown more
speed than any of the cash prize
riders, including even the American
champion Frank Kramer. But the
Australian cannot hold that form for
any great length of time and if he is
not on edge tonight the chances are
he may be beaten Three riders in
match is a far different proposition
than a two-man match. If Goullet
were meeting Rutt or Clark alone
he would probably rule strong fav-
orite on what he has shown in his
recent races. but with a third man in
the match, the breaks will have much
to do with the maj decision.

Son of Oil King Gives Reasons
for Refusing to Intervene in
Colorado Strike.

New York. April 29-John d. Rock
efeller Jr.. last night issued a state
ment defining the position he. as a di
rector of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
company. had taken in regard to the
mine strike now in progress in Colo
RADIO.
The statement refers to an inter
view had yesterday with Congressman
Foster OF Illinois. who acted as Presi-
dent Wilson's personal representative
in an effort to settle the strike AMIGA
bly,.
Mr.. Rockefeller's statement, in part,
follows:
we pointed out to Mr.. Foster that,
of the many coal companies in south
ern Colorado. we were interested sole
ly and as minority stockholders in the
Colorado Fuel and Iron company.
which controls only about one-third
OF the output of that state.
After a long and full discussion of
the question in all it's aspects, Mr.
Foster was unable to make any sug-
gestion which did not involve the I'M
ionizing of the mines or the submis-
sion of that question to arbitration.
which are claimed to be at issue, with
the exception OF unionizing the camps,
the Colorado Fuel and Iron company
had voluntarily granted to it's en-
ployes long before the strike was call
ed or talked Of"
The points enumerated are the eight
hour day. semimonthly pay, right Of
miners to employ check weighmen, no
discrimination against employees who
trade at other than the company's
stores, voluntary increase in wages
last year amounting to S550.0O0 a year.
I'm addition to the above. the only
matter which has been raised by the
union is the unionizing OF the com
pany's camp" the statement contin-
ues. "On this question of the open
shop. namely. the right of every
American citizen to work on terms
satisfactory 20 himself without secur.
ing the consent OF the union. I reiter-
ated TO Mr.. Foster what I said in my
examination before the committee on
mines and mining in Washington a
few weeks ago-that we regard this
as a matter of principle. which could
not be arbitrated.
in reply 10 his request for some
suggestion as to how the strike could
be terminated we said 10 Mr.. Foster
that IL the president would make a
public statement that the federal
troops were being sent To Colorado
for the purpose OF enforcing obedience
