had been asked on Joe Wood. the
American Leagues premier hurler.
we'll founded information to the effect
that waivers had been asked on Wood,
Thomas, Cady and Collins has been re-
ceived.
According to the story, waivers were
also asked on another player, who at
one time performed marvelously in a
world series. This player is an out
fielder and it is expected that he, too,
will go to some other team.
President Lannin feels that he has a
winning aggregation all lined up. and
that there is not much need of carry
ing the wealth of material now/ on
hand. Wood has declined to stand for
his cut of $4,000 in salary. All clubs
are reported to have waived on Wood
Lannin is said to be in the market
for a catcher who is rated as the sec
ond best in the league. If he succeeds
in getting him he will be fully salts

According to Tim Murnane of the
Boston Globe, Bill Carrigan claims not
to know anything about waivers hav-
ing been asked on Joe Wood, but the
cams statement. gives a lot Of details
which would indicate that President
Lannin has, sounded out the other mag
mates in the American League.
The following from Murnane's pen
gives some interesting facts on the
case:
IF President Lannin wishes to learn
what the other clubs thought about
one of his men he would ask for waiv-
ers through the Office Of the league.
The clubs looking for the player would
refuse to waive and the Boston man
would know just who would like to
get the player and open a correspond
ence after he withdrew the request for
waivers.
1.-The waiver price in the major
leagues is $4,000, but the chances are
that Boston would not dispose OF
Smoky Joe" for that amount. The
club that purchased Wood would have
to consider the large salary he would
ask, and this would deter most from
taking a chance, even should President
Lannin decide to part with his pitcher:
wood has received a contract call
ing for $4,000. This is cut Of $4,000
but as high figure as received by any
of the other great pitchers who did
such wonderful work last season from
start to finish, while Joe pitched only
eight full games and was worth moth
ing to the club when the real fight be-
gan late in August.
"For the last three years Joe has
been in poor shape. but has never lost
faith in his ability to regain his old
form. While Wood was confident.
President Lannin had misgivings; for
he paid the bills and was liberal for
two years He thought fair deal was
to give Wood the same salary he gave
the other star pitchers. but evidently
this is not satisfactory to the once

could deliver the goods in anything
