RUTH HAD BAN SCARED.
Upland Offer to Red Sox Pitcher
Lighters Punishment.

| CHESTER, Pa, July Fans wher-
ever base ball is talked are still dis
GUESSING how Ban Johnson let Babe
Ruth down with a little fine of 500
and one weeks lay-off after making a
more fragrant attack on Umpire Brick
Owens than ''Mugsy' McGraw did on
Lord Byron's jaw. But there is
strong reason for Ban Johnson's act.
Late last Thursday night Frank Mil
Ter. manager of the Upland Delaware
BILE to find a man for Chief Bender's
shoes to hurl against Chester, stepped
off the train in Boston armed with a
satchel of John p. CroZer's yellow
backs One hour later Miller was in
private conference with Babe Ruth at
his apartment in a residential suburb
of Boston. The conference was ar
ranged by telegraph.
Ruth listened to the story painted of
the Delaware County League made ia
nous by Frank Baker and the million
aire hackers of the circuit. After hear
ing this Miller asked Ruth what his
salary was in the American League.
After Ruth submitted the figures, Mil
Ter, to the surprise of the suspended
player. said: II will give you the same
and you will have to pitch only once a
week"
Give me time to think" replied Ruth,
and it was agreed the terms would be
laid over until Friday evening. Ruth,
still loyal to Manager Jack Barry. got
his manager on the telephone. The
consequence was Johnson was advised
what was going on.
Miller had returned to Upland and
got in conference with John P. Grocer
and Albert r. Granger. president and
vice president of the club. A few hours
later Ruth received a telegram stating
that, includig the meeting of the
American League salary. the Upland
team would pay his wifes expenses
here and pay whatever fine the Ameri-
can League imposed at the end of the
season for his jumping to the million
aire circuit"
Ruth took this telegram to Manager
Jack Barry and again Ban johnson was
advised. Late Saturday night the
American head handed out Ruth's mild
punishment.

dy has not been lost to the Braves. In
stead of having played his final game
for Stallings and company, the great
Hank has discovered there is no i'm

nesday night. he was under the impress
sion his enlistment with the National
Guard OF his native state would make
it imperative for him to abandon base
