Brooklyn, N. Y.--After career ex- tending over 13 years in the majors, Catcher Otto Miller of the Brooklyn Superbas has passed out of the big show.
 Miller was presented with his un- conditional release as is customary with all players who have served for 10 or more consecutive years in the big show. E:ts &S+
 This is a reward for loyalty and worthwhile service. It enables the veteran to make any deal that he be- lieves will prove best financially.
 It is probable that Miller will catch on as a playing manager as he is still able to do his bit back of the plate, He has already received several offers to act as an assistant to big league
