BAN JOHNSON
 WOULD STOP
 TRAINING TRIPS

Chicago, March 23@Baseban is in for an overhauling such as it has new CT before experienced if the sugges- tions of B. B. Johnson, President of the American League, are carried out. According to the head of that circuit, there is need of reform along both ar tistic and financial lines. Included in the scheme for a 'tnew deaI' are the closing of the gates for the com ing season of some fifty ball parks, and the abolition of Spring training trips. The padlocks would be distribu- ted among five or six minor leagues, while the American and National Leagues would be principally affected by the new system of training.
 The policy of closing the gates of scores of minor league clubs has been brought home with added pressure the last few days through appeals to the National Commission from ball players for back salaries. It seems that the majority of minor leagues failed to make both ends meet last year, and the players are at present in possession of 10 US, on which they have been unable to. collect Not being able to get any satisfaction from their employers, the players have flooded the commission with re- quests for money.
 President Johnson pointed out that the National League will have to get rid of probably 150 players, while the American League will discard al- most as many. The larger minor lea gues will cut their rosters to sixteen seventeen and eighteen players for each club. and these moves will throw more men out of jobs.
 we have come to the parting of the ways said Mr Johnson, land either have to furl our sails and run before the wind or take the chances of being wrecked on the financial shoals. I am not referring to the American or National Leagues when say this, except that retrenchments along certain lines may be necessary there. What I refer to is connected with the minors, and most of the leagues throughout the country are in a, bad way.
 ssThe National Commission has been, bombarded of late with requests for back salaries. These have all come from minor league players who were unable to collect from different clubs last Fall. The commission na.- turally tries to satisfy the players. to the best of its ability, but if the club owing the money is bankrupt our hands are tied.
 'I am going to suggest to the club owners in the American and National Leagues that hereafter all players be compelled to report in condition to play one or two weeks before the sea- son opens.''s said Johnson.
 These training trips are getting to be "a joke. They are of no benefit and cost the clubs, $3,06O to $4,O0O every year

WAGNER TOO
 MODEST TO CLAIM
 HE WAS BALL STAR
@porting News.1


 One of the most wonderful letters ever written by ball player came from Pitcher Otto Hess when he re- turned his signed. contract ito the Bos- ton Braves He didn't write a line about being-in the best of condition and expecting the greatest year of his career. All he said was Enclosed find signed contract for 1915 hope will be of some value to the club this year.. Honus Wagner hinnself couldn't t have equaled that.
 This recalls. by the way, a charac- teristic remark by Wagner made one day recently. He had been drawn on a jury in Pennsylvania and when he took his place in the jury box, a law yer put the customary questions to him.
 What is your business ?" was asked.
 I'm fish warden replied Hans.
 'Is that all you follow ?''.5
 t'No, some people say I am a ball player but I don't know whether I am or not.''
 The tender-hearted Honus was so af- fected when a jury brought in a yer dict of hanging for a murderer that he. had to leave the court room and later he was excused from service, de- claring he didn't have the heart to send any man to prison, no matter what he might have done.
 1T don't see how you have the heart to catch the poor fish on your hook, g said the prosecuting attorney.
 T always throw back the little ones,'' replied Honus- And my bus mess as a fish warden is to make oth- CT people do the same.''

GEORGE WILTSE TO
 BE MANAGER FOR
 JERSEY CITY CLUB

New York. March '2s-G George Hooks" wfltse, the veteran southpaw pitcher, who until few months ago was a popular member of the Giants pitch ing staff, had his ambition realized yesterday afternoon. Ever since he received his unconditional release from the New Haven club, ttHooks''t has been endeavoring to break, into the In ternationa1 league as manager of the Jersey City. club. Yesterday President Barrow announced that the southpaw had finally succeeded in his task. Wiltse will assume the responsibilities or the Skeeters immediately.
 While a member of the Giants, Wiltse was one of the most popular players on the team. He was ido1ized by the fans of this community for many years. It Is believed that Manager McGraw was instrumental in landing his former pitcher as manager of the Skeeters
 X Wiltse was not only an exceptionally clever southpaw:s he was one of. the best fielding pitchers in the game. Be- sides he always hit the ball hard.

THREE OUTS
 ON ONE BASEHIT

During a flaming bee recently sew eral well known players were dfscuss- ing exceptional happenings in base ball, Plays of every kind and variety were mentioned til the conversation had veered around to Wild Bill Dono- van. who had smilingly accepted the statements.

 Did any of you fellows ever see a. triple killing on a singIe2 When the Nationals went west in 1909 we opened against another a1l-star az gregatien at Hamilton, o. In the first inning of the game we got a man on first and second. nobody out ana Wahoo Sam Crawford at bat. Bed Dooin was catching for them and Miller Higgins was playing second base.
 Sam gave the hit ana run signal and the men on the bases started with the pitch. Sam met the ban squarely for a single into left field The man on second rounded third for home and the man on first tore around second for third.
 Lefty Houtz was playing left heId for the other side, and he, came in with the crack of the bat. scooped the ball off the ground and shot it to Dooin on a. line.
 '~The man who had rounded third saw the ball was going to beat him to the plate so he stopped and start ed back to third The other runner also turned around. touched third and started back to second.
 Crawford was already past first and tearing for second, Dooin sized up the play Immediately. made a lbluh throw to third and whipped the ball to Huggins who touched Crawfords sliding into second feet first, then turped in time to put the ball on the other man coming back to second head first
 1.-The man who was. almost to the plate, and who turned back was standing off third watching the play when Huggins touched sam and the other player. and Huggfns wheeled and threw to third, mailing his man for the third out..'
 You wins'' was the verdict of the flaming players.

BROOKLYN
 WINS SERIES
 FROM MACKMEN

 Chabek of last years Harrisburg team started the contest for the Rob ins, and during his stay of five innings in the middle of the diamond he all lowed the Mackmen only one run and three hits. Goodbred, the giant or the young twirlers, relieved him and came nearly losing the game in the sixth inning, when the American league champions gathered four runs through his bad twirling.
 The Flatbush boys won the game in their portion of the sixth inning by piling up a trio of runs on some weird playing by the Ph1ladeIphians, a three base throw by Bostik being responsf- ble for most of the tallies
 The Athletics were without the ser- vices of Barry. OIdring, Strunk and Walsh who left early yesterday morn ing for Jacksonville. Three pitchers played the out1e1d for the Athletics and each made pretty catches.
