New Haven, March 23.--The am
nouncemcnt TO the effect that Major
Louis ~. Stoddard had abandoned, for
the present ut least, all idea OF ac-
curing the New Haven basel ball fran.
chise was received with keen disap-
pointment. New Haveners were anx-
ious to see Stoddard kindle the fro

means of the Elm city having fast

not see his way clear to make formal
application for the purchase OF the
franchise at this time. Major Stod-
dard and his representative, Mr..

time to other business just now, al
though it is understood that the polo

CLOSE DOWN Minor
LEAGUES, SAYS BAN
Believes IN Action Favored BY
CLarkin, Carey and Cameron.

Chicago, March 23.---Baseball is in
for an overhauling such as it has
never before experienced if the sug-
gcstions 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 artistic and financial lines. In
Guided in the scheme for new DEAF
are the closing of the gates for the
coming season of some fifty ball
parks, and the abolition of spring
training trips The pad1ocks would
be distributed among five or six minor
leagues, while the American and Ma
tional leagues would be principally
affected by the new system of train
ing.
The apparent lack of interest in
baseball in smaller towns is the reason
for the first suggestion, and needless
expense, coupled with the chilly re-
ception both at the gate and by the
weatherman at the southern training
camps, is responsible for the second.
Then the hippodrome features Of the
String trips probably mad consider
able to do with it.
Back Salaries Demanded.
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. 1t seems
that the majority Of minor leagues
failed to make both ends meet last
year, and the players are at present
in possession of I. O. 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.
The supreme court of baseball has
been unable to offer much encourage
nlent, and it was pointed out today
through Mr.. Johnson that the worst
is yet to come. Hundreds of players
ore likely to be out Of jobs the COM
ing season, with no relief in sight, re-
gardless of whether certain clubs
close their gates or not.
President Johnson pointed out that
the National league will have to get
rid of probably $50 players. while the
American league will discard almost
ar many. The larger minor leagues
will cut their rosters to sixteen, seven
teen and eighteen players for each
more men out of jobs.
I'VE 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. l am not referring to the
American or National leagues when 1
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
bad way.
Close the Gates.
There is no question that it
would be a good thing for the game
were the gates of five or six minor
league clubs closed during the COM
ing season. In fact, I cannot see
how the smaller club owners can
afford to keep their parks open.
THE National Commission has been
hombarded of late with requests for
back salaries. These have all come
from minor league players who were
unable to collect fro Indifferent clubs
