MANY HOLDOUTS
AMONG REDS

Some little trouble is being ex-
perienced by the Cincinnati club
in lining up its players for next
season. Owing to the fact that
there was not much money made
in Redlsnd last season players did
not get large raises.
In some cases. notably that of
Eppa Rixey, the club was forced
to slice his contract for the season
of 1891. The result is that the
veteran portsider is holdout for
the first time in several seasons.
After IT years on the green
Rixey is not keen about going
down South this season. It may
be that he will elect to devote
his time to his insurance business
which he has been building up
for his day of retirement.

This season two more effective

claimed that poor timing and a
