SOolOtIy
pitcher, last season with the Brook
Ign Feds, has been purchased by the
Cubs, President Weeghman paying
Harry Sinclair $500 for the ath-
lete. Weeghman assumes the con-
tract Seaton has with the Tip Tops,
which has yet year to run.
The sale is conditional, however,
resting on whether Seaton can show
major league class during a regular
season. His first efforts in the Fed
eral league were first class, but to-.
ward the close of that circuits active
life he became Ineffective and had
trouble with his managers on this &C
count. Seaton in top condition will
be big aid to the North Siders.
Tinker also disposed of a recruit
catcher to Frank Chance, and Roger
Bresnahan had another conference
with Charley Weeghman. They are
scheduled to confer again today, but
definite settlement of the case of
the former manager is not likely I'M
til Ban Johnson is heard from. Ban
is trying to arrange a place for
Roger with the Cleveland American
assn team.
The American league bIackIisted
no athletes who jumped to the Fed
erals during the midst of a campaign,
but it will be exceedingly unpleasant
for any manager who signs Hal
Chase, first baseman par excellence,
who deserted the White Sox for
Buffalo. That is the inference drawn
from a statement from Ban Johnson,
following news of a report that Field
er Jones would sign Prince Hal to
play first for the st. Louis Browns.
Ban says Fielder would handicap
himself by signing Hal and that it
would not be advisable to play Chase
at Comiskey park next season. Maybe
Jones will listen to this and maybe
not. If he really wants Chase it is

picked Chase up. Hal need not worry,
as several clubs can use him in their

Butch Schmidt, Boston Brave first
baseman, says he is to quit baseball
and devote his time to business in

for another year.
