QUEER TRADE
IN BASEBALL,
McGraw Obtains Star Catcher for Use.
less and Crippled Pitcher
in National
League.

by H. c. Hamilton, United Press
Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, July 17-Expectation
for further chickering's Of sensational
nature in the National league were
voiced here today following yester-
days inexplicable exchange in which
John McGraw obtained a star catcher
for useless and crippled pitcher.
The trade Of Ferd Schupp to the
Cardinals for Frank Snyder, it was
commended, could be justified by
Branch Hickey only by manipulating
his players further and shunting
Schupp to some one who wants to
spend season attempting to bring the
former star back 20 greatness.
Schupps value is practically nil, while
Snyder long has been rated one of the
best catchers in the National league.
Students Of baseball had 1t figured
that McGraw induced Hickey to make
the exchange only by promising that
he would use his surplus catching ma
terial in deal that will bring pitchers
to the Giants-something they sorely
need-and then do his benefactor a
good turn by entering into another
trade that will strengthen the Cardi-
nails.
MoGraw long has been not after sew
eral star southpaws. He wants Rixey,
Phillies Arthur Nehf, Braves or Will
bur Cooper, Of the Pirates He has
little chance of getting the latter two
although each of the clubs needs
goo dactcher AS for Rixey it is quite
probable a deal can be arrange,, r
him because Cactus Cravath wants a
backstop.
Strengthen the Giants" seems to be
a slogan with the National league mag
mates, even at the expense of their
own organizations.

sition.

/ UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. ]
NEW York., July 17.-Andrew Fur
useth, president OF the International
Seamen's union was here today to in.
ivestigate the strike situation prepare
tory to reporting on conditions to the
seamen OF the Great lakes and the
Pacific coast.
Although one or two steamship
owners We're reported to have granted
the demands of the seamen, the tie
up apparently was as complete as at
any time since the strike was called
last week.
With the cooks, stewards and sail
ors now on strike, the engineers on
the verge of going out and the order
'of the shipping board to dismiss strik-
'ers effective, the water transportation
situation here and at other Atlantic
coast points had reached a critical
stage.
AS no embargo had been placed on
freight from inland points the con-
gestion on wharves and at railroad
terminals was increasing hourly and
perishable freight was spelling in
large quantities.
To relieve the situation at least tenn
poTdrlly, the Snlppng board last night
called for volunteers to man ships I'M
der it's control, but it was admitted
that it would be difficult to get licens-
ed men to take the place Of the strik-
ers. The board offered to pay the in
creased salary proffered the unions.
In it's appeal, the shipping board
strongly criticized the action Of the
men who quit ships provided to trans
port cattle to France.
"The honor of the government in its
engagements with the French govern
ment is involved" said the board
mo private corporation or persons,
either in this country or in France
has any connection with either the
ships or the cargoes."
Meetings were to be held today by
steamship owners, marine workers and
shipping board members separately
and later jointly.
