He was one of the first to organize
the famous hose, hook and ladder

popular and the rivalry between Mas

his start at a trainer in 1890 and 1891.

SCRAPPING MANAGER
STILL In BASEBALL
Both Leagues Boast of Leaders
Handy With Their Fists.
Former Star Player Lanents Fact
That Game Is Becoming Hand
shaking Observation-Disclosures
Battles Not Numerous.

Jess Burkett, former big league star
batsman, recently lamented the fact
that baseball was becoming hand
shaking institution. There is not
enough fight in the modern game OF
baseball to suit the aggressive Jess.
Perhaps battles on the diamond are
not as numerous as they once were,
but it cannot be said that the present
condition which Burkett mourns has
been brought about entirely by the
present crop of managers, for in the
big leagues today nearly all of the
pilots are known quantities as far as
scrapping goes.
In the American league there are
two premier performers with their
mitts in Ed Barrows of the Red Sox
and "Kid" Gleason of the Chicago
White Sox. And Jimmy Burke of the
Browns and Clarke Griffith of the Sen
ators cannot be considered shrinking
violetS.
The National league, however, Is
much better equipped in the matter of
fighting leaders in Hugo Bezdek of the
Pirates, John McGraw of the Giants
Branch Hickey Of the Cardinals, Free
Mitchell of the Cubs and George STALL
ings Of the Braves. Any of this CROWD
will battle, and If rumors can be creds
tied, any of them can, in pinch, go
to the mat with an obstreperous play
er who might happen to get the idea
he can "run" the boss.
Connie Mack of the Athletics, Miles
Higgins Of the Yanks and Hugheg
Jennings Of the Tigers might be
classed as the peaceful delegates, beg
cause they invariably try to settle by
arbitration what the other scrappy
managers want to iron out in battle
Age usually takes much Of the firs
Of the scrappy leaders, and even JOht
McGraw is inclined to let pass soma
CALLING incidents that only couple 81
seasons ago would have sent the Lit
tie Napoleon" into a hurricane Of rage
The officials and not the managers q
baseball are responsible for the cor
ditions Of the present, for, as Pat Me-
ran says, the player who fights for hiS
point now is rowdy instead of an as
gressive ball player.
