SALE OF BAKER IS
DENIED BY YANKEES
Col. Huston Expects Slugger To Join
New York In South. Welcome Re-
turn.

New York. Feb 27-J. Franklin
Baker has not been sold to Washing
ton. What is more, he will not be
sold to Washington or to any other
club. He is going to Shreveport,
La, to train with the Yankees and
he will finish his major league career
as a member of the New York Amer
lean League club.
All the foregoing information was
made both plain and emphatic by
Col. T. L. Huston, half owner of the
Yankees, who returned today from
a visit to the Dover Hall Club near
Brunswick, Ga.
Il am completely at loss to un-
derstand how such story could
originate from Cincinnati" said the
colonel in referring to dispatch
from that city which said the former
home-run king of Trappe. Md, had
been sold to Washington for 100000
Il saw Frank Baker in Washing
ton last night" Colonel Huston con-
tinued. He told me that he wished
to play ball in New York and I as
sured him we would not sell him or
trade him.
Il consider Baker one Of the very
finest specimens of manhood l have
ever met during a long business
career. He is man, every inch of
him, from the ground up. Baseball
needs more men of the Baker type.
He is the best possible influence for
good on a ball club, and he will be
welcomed back whenever he gets
ready to report"
