Brooklyn Seems To Have Been
the Luckiest of all Big
Show Teams

The season OF 1915 can prove
q mucN better year for the unearth-
ing of NneX- baseball luminaries than
1914, and still not break any records.
Detroit had to be content with the
discovery or First Baseman Burns,

OF the Superbas as whole. really
Jared the best or the major league

Corners to light. Big Jeff Pfeiffer, de-
spite the careless manner with which
he scatters "fs" through his monick-

In his first season in the main ring he
ranked third among the pitchers in
the Tener circuit, and won two-thirds
OF his games with a second. division
team. Ollie O.Meara lis an infielder

he played very creditable ball during
his first year, and promises to de-
velop into something mighty good as
soon as more experience crowns his
youth. Those two represent Brook
lyn's haul from the bushes for last
year. and they are the best pair Of all
the newcomers.
Frank Snyder, who was picked by
the Cards. was another good recruit.

Speed is the strong forte OF the
skaters who make up the lineup which

the Senior o. II. A., who will come
to Detroit, Saturday night, to battle
with the local puck chasers.

II is team that will provide plenty
of work for the local hockeyists. The
Detroiters found this so in the initial

However. Detroit is particularly
well. fitted to combat this speed in
that IL has hard checking aggrega

This game ought to prove one OF
the very best Of the season.

PIPP AND MULLEN TO
GET EQUAL CHANCE

NEW YORK, Jan. 2s.--Manager
Donovan. Of the Yankees, has coun-
tered the protest against what was
interpreted as undue favoritism for
Firstbaseman Walter Pipp over Char
ley Mullen by an announcement that
both Will be taken south and given an
equal chance to make good. At the
time of the announcement.Si 1t was de-
clared that Farrell had sold Mullen to
Indianapolis just before he disposed
OF the club to the new owners. But
that sale would not be given an O. X.
until Charley had been given another
chance to make good at New York.

New Majors Can Now Buy Star
Players, If They Have the
Price

NEW YORK, Jan. 29.--Three new
major leagues, technically so. Will
greet the playing season Of 1915. That
was the outlook today with the an
nouncement that the draft rule will
be lifted from the American associa-
ton. Letting down the bars for the
association will necessitate doing like
wise for the international league and
the Pacific Coast loop, and then or
ganized baseball will have shot its
latest and strongest 42-centimeter pro
jectile at the Feds.
The scene of the baseball wrangle.
which Is waxing hotter and hotter as
the season approaches, Will shift to
New York next week. Then, II Is
expected, all technical dificulties In
the paths OF the "A leagues will be
eliminated by the National commits
sion and the Federals Will have to
compete with major leagues every
where. particularly indianapolis, Kan
sas City or the franchise remains)
and Buffalo. @
Raising the rating Of the three big
minors will throw into their ranks
many players who are now on club
rosters in the National and American
leagues.
The Association clubs In Indianap-
oils and Kansas City. and the Inter
national club In Buffalo. will have
the power to purchase any players
they wish II they can stand the tax.
The magnates believe partial dis
tribution of stars. In these three cities
particularly, would do much TO offset
the popularity Of the Feds, which has
advertised itself a major league with
major league players.
President Tener. II Is said, does not
favor the plan, but Hermann and
Ban Johnson. the two other members
of the National commission. do. and
It is reported from reliable source
that the action will take place next
week at the commission meeting here.

Greater Gotham Managers
All From HanlOn.s School
As in Other War, Ned and His
Pr0teges Are in Rival
Camps

NEW YORK, Jan. 29.--One Of the
strange condolences OF the 1915 sea-
son will be that all three of Greater
New York's major league teams will
be commanded next season by mem
bers of the Alumni association Of the
Ned Hanlon baseball school Ned. by
the way. is now one of the insurgent
chieftains, who Is advising the Feds
In their warfare with organized base

John McGraw, wilbert Robinson
and Wild William Donovan are all
graduates OF the Hanlon school Jchn
Joseph and Robby played for HanIon
fought In Ned's Brooklyn regiment.
Joe Kelly. the new scout of the fan.
KEGS, is another Hanlon alumnus, be-
ing q teammate of McGraw and Rob-
by In Baltimore.
Hanlon and his school Of players al
ways, seem TO fight In rival armies.
During the National-American war
Hanlon was manager of Brooklyn. and
naturally very much for the National
league, which then represented organ
lied baseball. McGraw was then man
ager of the Baltimore Americans, hav-
ing jumped with Robby from the st.
Louis Nationals.
McGraw trained his guns on Han
Ions Brooklyn team, and grabbed Joe
Kelly, Jimmy Sheckard and Harry
Howell from the Ebbets field corps.
Donovan jumped to Detroit at the
time
After McGraw had his argument
with Ban Johnson. he. too. jumped
back to the National league. when Of.

He took batch of players with him,
while Kelly. Seymour and Donlin
jumped TO Cincinnati. Johnson was
a very furious president at that time.
and he swore he never would speak
to people who treated him like that.
During the present war Hanlon
again finds himself arraigned on OPP
posite sides with most of his grad

BRYAN A CANDIDATE
FOR RSENATE|N 1916,
IS LATEST GOSSIP
Bitterness Toward Hitchcock
Likely to Cause Him to Seek
Office.

Coincident with the announcement
that Senator Hitchcock will return to
Nebraska next Monday, a strong cur
rent of political gossip has set in to the
effect Secretary Bryan will become a
Senatorial candidate in the 1916
Nebraska primary.
The bitterness between the Hitchcock
and Bryan factions in the state is we'll
known.
Secretary Bryan and his followers are
bent on preventing the return Of Sem
ator Hitchcock to the Senate II possible.
Mr.. Bryans friends think he is the
most available man to defeat Senator
Hitchcock and in fact, that he is about
the only man who can do 1t.
Among other things, to enter the
Senatorial campaign would afford Mr..
Bryan a graceful way of getting out
place where he has drawn an endless
fire of fierce criticism.
The Administration would be delight
ed to see Senator Hitchcock beaten and,
while it is not known what the inner
sentiments Of the President are. it is
certain that some of the President s
close advisers would be delighted II
they could see Mr.. Bryan out of the
Cabinet and in some other part of the
political world.

party. Senator Cummins. on the other
hand, will seek the nomination as a
progressive Republican. He has re-
Gently given out a statement OF his
views In which he expressed advanced
views on n number of subjects. More
over, he declared the saloon had TO
go and that sobriety must rule the ma
ton.
Some of Senator Cummins. political
friends have told him they thought this
was impolitic, and would cost him sup
pert in some quarters. but on the other
hand, 1t will no. doubt bring him dele
gates in some of the dry States.
The candidates. of Senator Cummins,
Senator Borah and men of that type
will be urged by their friends on the
ground that IL the Republican party
is to be successful In 1915 candidate
must be had who will appeal to the
Bull Moose voters who left the Repub.
political leaders. especially those of
tho Old Guard School, take a different
view and insist that IL the Republicans
put up any man of strength he can
win. ....
Senator Cummins' friends think he Is
going to loom up as a formidable factor
before many months go by.
M. II. Aylesworth, member of the pdb-
lie utilities commission of Colorado, who
Is In Washington, said today there was
a strong Cummins movement in his part
of the West. Mr.. Aylesworth said.
Colorado is n Republican State again
and will be in 1916 The Republicans OF
the West admire Senator Cummins. ant
a strong movement from the Western
States is back of him for the Presiden
tial nomination"

Cummins appealed more strongly to tn,
republicans of his State than any othel
