While the deal involved only the two

il was completed that president Herr

be in charge Of the team
New York Tried To Hold Him.
Even until the last New York en-
deavored to hold on to tMatty'' condi-
tionally. The deal was contaminated
at noon Thursday after a two hour
conference between presidents Herr

Graw of the Giants The trade had
been practically agreed upon a couple
Of days ago. until New York insisted

Even should Mathewson fail however,

of money.
It is not likely that he will quit,
however-not until he has given every
angle of the game a trial I asked him
once when he expected to retire, and
he answered:
When they cut my uniform right off
me"
It is characteristic of Mathewson
that whatever he attempts he usually
masters He was not much of a check
at that game, but he persevered until
he became one Of the greatest checker
players in the country.
He took up golf couple Of years
go, and was a most Indifferent play

More recently he attempted trap shoot

for a long time He kept studying and

at q time and now he has vastly i'm

Ball players who know him well
like Mathewson. but he does not make
intimates readily. He was once in
cIined TO be rather cold and distant,
which was due 10 bashfulness as much
as anything else. but of late years that
side Of his nature has changed and he
is easier and more cordial in his man

He. has a college education. and he
has improved on that education by
reading. 1t is a pleasure to
