troit Pitcher, Will
Manage Team.

NEW YORK. Dec. 31.-Capt T. l.
Huston and Col. Jacob Rupert, jr,
are now the owners of the Yanks.
The famous deal for the New York
club of the American league was fin
ally closed this afternoon. Wild
Bill Donovan, the old Detroit pitcher.
Will be the manager next season.
The price was not made public, but
il is believed that Frank Farrell, Big
Bill" Devery and the other stock
holders in the Yankees got pretty
close to their original price. which
was 100000. 1t is understood that
Huston and Rupert each hold a half
interest in the club and Rupert is to
be president, while Huston will be
secretary and treasurer of the corpor-
alton.
The selection of wild Bill" DOno-
van as manager was enthusiastically
greeted. Donovan led the Prov iGence
club of the International league 10 a
pennant last season. but his chief
value to the Yanks will lie in the fact
that he still retains all the old knowl-
edge of American league conditions.
He has a line on American league
clubs and players that is not possessed
by any Of the other men who were
suggested for the job.
