Hopes Of Becoming Owner Of
New York Giants Causes
Outlaw = Mogul to Post
pone Great Rattle.
"a IR0NCLAD CONTRACTS

Cincinnati. O., Jan. 5.-Hsrry F. Sim
clair's hope of becoming owner OF the
New York Giants probably viii bring
about a postponement in the staging OF
the sketch entitled "Thc Great Baseball
Rattle" which was scheduled to play a
ree-day-and night-stand here begin
ming today.
The town Just now Is cluttered UP with
baseball executives, owners, managers,
scouts and secretaries. who came here
primarily for the purpose OF attending
the various meetings that are TO be held
here In an attempt TO finally effect the
Federal League merger. But upon ar
riving here. they forgot all about routine
meetings ana sought out Sinclair in the
hope that maybe he would sell them Lee
Magee, Benny Kauff, Bill Rsriden, Ed
Konetchy, Jack Dalton and the other
slaves owned by him.
Sinclair met their advances coyly at
first. He explained that he was In re-
ceptive mood as to bids for players. but
significantly added:
Il don't think I'll do business for a
while. I'm planning to hold on to these
players for a certain purpose.
And the purpose? None other than
that Sinclair knows why he has decided
not to sell any Of the real stars in his
control until he knows positively wheth-
er he can buy the Giants. II he can buy
the Giants he will keep for his New York
team the brightest of the thirty stars
and sell or trade the rest II he cannot
buy them he will sell them all.
Sinclair declared today that he has not
assumed all of the eighty-four ironclad
Federal League contracts as has been
stated. He said:
81 assumed the contracts Of Magee,
Kauff and Anderson, Of the Brooklyn
Club four or five players on the Kansas
City team and several OF the Buffalo
players OF course l assumed the con-
tracts of the Newark players because
those contracts were made by me-
Sinclair wouldn't divulge the names of
the players on the Buffalo and Kansas
City clubs whose contracts have been
assumed but II is understood that among
them are Packard. Cullsp. Shaw and
Stovall. of Kansas City. and Chase and
Dalton. Buffalo. Ed Konetchy, the first
basemsn star of the Pittsburgh club also
Is believed to be sne OF sinclair's
slaves"
Sinclair stated that IL the National
Commission or anyone else had the idea
that the Federal League players were
to be disposed OF according to the die
tates of the National Commission that
such an idea is erroneous
The big pow-wow of the day was
slated TO get under way in the afternoon
in the Hotel Winton. This was to be
meeting between the committees rep
resenting the Federal and the Interna-
tioDal Leagues. with the National Com
mission assuming the, rale Of referee in
the bout that was sure TO be fought out
between the rival factions from Buffalo
and Baltimore.
All o: the committeeman came here
with the purpose of getting our rights"
and warm session was promised. but
the commission members were confident
that the whole matter would be straight
ened out before midnight
