PLAYFELLOW CASE
COMES UP TO-DAY
Suit to Recover 100000, Pur-
chase Price Of Man O. Wars
Brother.

"a cribber and a windsucker; there
fore unsound7 That is the contention
OF Fl. F. Sinclair OF the Rancocas
Stables concerning Playfellow. a full
brother OF the great Man-o'-War.
Mr.. Sinclair paid James S. Johnson of
the Quincy Stables $4,000 for Play
fellow. Hts cult to recover the $4,000
on the ground Of the stations alleged
unsoundness. will commence either to-
day or tomorrow in the Supreme Court,
Brooklyn. and Will be one OF the most
unusual suits ever tried in that court.
In order to persuade him to buy Play
fellow In June last. said Sinclair. John
son made certain false and fraudulent
Misrepresentation and warranties to
the plaintiff. to wit: That said Play
fellow was and the defendant knew
him to be sound In wind and limb and
free from any bad habits. traits or de-
fects Of any kind. and that he. the said
defendant knew Playfellow to be a per-
feet horse"
Such statements. said Sinclair, were
false in that Playfellow was afflicted
with bad habit known to those inter
ested in racing and breeding as suck
Ing wind" In addition, he was
'cribber." FIe had possessed both habits
for some time.
horse with such habits. stated the
complaint. Is of little value for racing
or breeding purposes. Sucking Wind
has the effect "of disarranglng the
horses physical and nervous system and
renders him unfit for racing. and such
horse Is not sound Of wind" 4 horse
who Is a "cribber," according to the
papers. will transmit that habit to his
offspring. This consists in gnashing the
side of his stall with his teeth
The papers add that 100000 would
be fair price for the horse If he were
sound. On July z. said Sinclair. he
noted the thorough bred's defects and
sought TO rescind the purchase, return
the horse and regain his money But
Johnson, he said. refused to agree.
Johnson has made q general denial
OF the allegations Of the complaint
adding:
claimed to have been made or to exist
in the sale of the horse mentioned and
described in the complaint was waived
by the plaintiff by reason of his accep-
tance of said horse and his use there
after and the acceptance of benefits
arising therefrom"
Philip A. Brennan represents Sinclair
and Henry f. Cochrane, Johnson.

Post. Some time ago Charley Ebbets
heard that the Dodgers were misbehav-
ing and cabled warning to them. Mil
Ter wrote as follows:
DEAR Mr. EBBETs: Received your cable
last evening and was surprised and very
much disappointed with its contents.
We have been complimented so much on
our good behavior since we have been
here that your cable was like lightning
from a clear sky. However, 1 am not
going to get excited about 1t and I know
you are not You know the players
have down here as well as any one else.
When l got this trip up Mike Gonzales
and / chose the players we wanted and
we chose players that were temperate.
The Havana Post and the Plaza Hotel
management, both American and Cuban
wanted to write you letters in our be-
half, but told them IT was unnecessary,
as 1 thought you would believe what
wrote you. / haven't seen one player In
toxicated and have had no trouble on or
off the ball field; in fact we are having
most enjoyable trip down here. We
have played twelve games, having won
seven and lost five. We won the first
three games, then we lost game, which
think caused all the trouble. Grimes
started to pitch and got lame arm In
the second inning. / put Eayres IN.
Then in the seventh inning his arm went
bad I had no other pitchers available,
so Olsen voluntee red to work. The score
was s to 3 in their favor at the time
Well. the Cubans did not like 1t and they
hollered their heads off.
The next day a local Spanish paper
wrote us up terribly; said we were kid
ding them and not trying, &c How
ever, since then. and that was the only
bad game in the series. we have had
real nice. interesting games. The boys
were handicapped after the first few
days by being so sore, but now every
body Is In good shape and we hope to
win the series by comfortable margin.
We are all trying hard. These clubs
down here are not easy to defeat They
have four good pitchers--Luque, Tuero,
who think is as good as Luque, Pal
nero and Acosta.
Grimes is in shape again. He has won
two and lost one. Meadows won three
and lost one; Smith won two and lost
one; Miljus lost two and won none. Mil
JUS pitched two good games, but was op-
| posed by Tuero, who is In great shape
right now."
