BENNY KAUFF WILL SUE
 GIANTS FOR S5,OOO BONUS Declares M'Graw Didn t Keep Promise When He Induced Benny to Jump

dried Kauff asked for the bonus.
 ''Then started the big stall. Benny w0S told that they wanted to play him in the game that afternoon; that he would get the bonus right away, but that they didn't have time to bother with that trivial matter at the time. So they rushed Benny to the Polo Grounds, threw him into a uniform and rushed him onto the field.
 Boston refused to play with Kauf in the game. Then came the big squabble. Kauff finally was forced to return to the Brookfeds. Since that day he has been asking for his $5,OO0. But asking hasn't brought it, so yes terday Attorney Ward stepped into the HmeIight-''
 Incidentally, we have learned that Kauff promises some very excellent reading matter in case he is forced to go into the courts to get his bonus! It's a cinch that he will call McGraw Also we will then be able to learn just who quit McGraw when he made his ''steaF' of the outlaw star.
 It's just possible that the New York club will settle with Benny rather than let the inside facts of this case get before the public It's a cinch that the case, if tried, will force or ganized baseball to show part Fof it's hand in the warfare being waged on the Federal League.
 And it doesn't seem improbable either, that the Federal League is urging Kauff on in the matter. There is undoubtedly a "nigger'' in the woodpile'' here.

New York;, June e-Benny Kauff, the hardlhitting outfe1der of the Brooklyn Federal League club, who jumped to the Giants one fine May afternoon, only to find that he had to return to the campus over on the other side of the East River, is look ing for a $5,OO0 bonus he alleges Manager McGraw and President Har- " N Hampstead promised him on the day he signed the New York con tract.
 The Ty Cobb of the outlaws has sse- cured Attorney John M.l7Ward to get him the $5,0O0. Yesterday MT. Ward wrote MT. Hampstead 3, letter asking the Giants chief what he had to say about the matter. MT. Hampstead. however is in the west, travelling with his team.
 MT. Ward will take the case to court should MT Hampstead refuse to settle with Benny. Kaun is so sure of winning the case that, it is said, he would not sens out his claim for s4,S99.99.
 .rwe will give you s5.OOo if you will sign this contract Hampstead and McGraw are alleged to have told Benny. So Benny affixed his John Hancock. Then he asked for $5,0OO Did he get it? He did-not. A personal friend of Kauff's told last night the story of the deal as follows:
 t.Kauff signed. contract for the seasons of 1915-16-17 at a salary o. 1 $8,00o per. The second he signed this contract he was to receive a. bo nus of $5,oo0. Before the ink hat

the ball concealed so that runners may be tipped off when the hidden ball trick is to be employed, is one of these. It should be supplemented by a, move to place a cot at every sack, with an alarm clock electrically con- nected with the batsman's bludgeon That would make a base runners maps much more comfortable.
 Whenever a team is at bat it has on the lines two coaches, who draw pay that day for nothing else than to aid the base runner. On the bench there are anywhere up 70 a dozen team mates, who are supposed to be watch ing the game. Judging by this years games, there are no restrictions what ever on coaching. If all of these men, whose gross salaries aggregate around $1OO000 cannot keep track of the ball during the 40 minutes or less that their team has runners on, then said runners should be caught.
 Also, as an entnentIy fair question if one umpire, with one pair of eyes can keep tabs on the sphere at all times, why cannot 20 players Jointly do the same thing? If this rule goes through, we'll think President Tener is kidding us next time he talks about the advance of baseball, and the inn proved intelligence of it's demonstra- tors Why thus protect the sleepy and< indifferent player and prevent the advantage merited by the player who keeps his head up and plays the game to win2

YALE OARSMEN
 RECOVER FROM
 POISON ATTACK

Gales Ferry, June g. - The Yale oarsmen who suffered an attack of ptomaine poisoning at the training quarters here last night were much better to-day but are still quite weak, are, in the opinion of, the physicians, making satisfactory progress toward recovery. Seventeen men were ta- ken i'll. The source of the attack has not yet been determined but an in vestigation is being made.
 The weakened condition of the men made rowing for them to-day out of the question but it is expected light work would be given them to-mor+ row.
 It was learned last night that Yale and Harvard have entered upon a 'tgentlemen's agreement not to paint the boat houses, steal each others mascots or indulge in other pranks this year. Last year the Yale fresh men stole the Harvard freshmen's pet goat, which resulted in retaliatory measures on the part of the Crimson youngsters.

 Only a couple of winters ago the Players Fraternity, under President F,ulz, demanded as a reward to thS player the right of unconditional re- lease after a certain period of ser vice, so that he could be free to go where he pleased and sell his ability in open market. That demand was granted and was hailed by F-ultz as a notable concession by Organized Base ball. Today a conditional release is a
