YANKEES SEEKING TOB|N
Higgins Wants st. Louis Fly
chaser in His Garden With
Ruth and Lewis.

NEW YORK. January 22.-The visit
of Manager Higgins of the Yankees
to St. Louis has stirred up the news
that the New York manager has made
a fiattering offer to the Browns for
Cutfielder Johnny Tobin.
Huggins' visit to ST. Louis with
Scout Tom Connery occasioned no lit
tie surprise in the Mound City. because
it was believed that on account of
the fight in the American League that
trading negotiations between the
clubs would be impossible. However,
while the club owners may be at
odds. they do not propose to allow
their own feelings to interfere with
the plans of their managers 1t is
getting pretty close to the time when
the clubs are to go south. and the
managers are overlooking no oppor-
tunity in strengthening their clubs.
Tobin is a high-class outfielder. and
with Ruth and Lewis the Yanks
would present a powerful outfielding
aggregation. The st. Louis club has
always had good luck with players
they have obtained from the Yankees
and there is d possibility that the
deal may go through.
Higgins HIS also visited Chica go
and Detroit. but it is not believed
that he found much encouragement
in these cities.
