Dempsey Comeback YankS May Expand Bush Loop Holdings

Wilson went Bud Teachout, and at the
time Of the trade there were rumors
that Chicago paid some cash to obtain
Grimes.
THE st. Louis club saved heavily on
L the calary Grimes wanted for 1882.
Combine the salary saved on
Grimes, with any cash that may have
been paid by Chicago to st. Louis TO
get Grimes. with the amount paid by
Brooklyn to obtain Wilson, and st. Louis
appears to be more than $4,000 ahead
on ball player whom it never did seem
to want very badly.
The New York Americans have paid out
at least S500,00o to minor leagues for
players Because of the large sum thus
expended the owner today believes he
could have invested 100000 with as
favorable returns as he has received
from buying individual players who
have been fairly well developed in minor
leagues. 1t appears to be good policy.
but If there were a known Babe Ruth
in some lowly club in the South or West
the major league clubs would run his
price of transfer up to S150000 just as
quickly as though the chain store sys-
tenn had never been heard of before.

as Shean wanted it

pionships as shean wanted it
to be.
With Newark and Springfield, New
York would have representation In class
AA and class A. 1t might find a class
B team in the Midwest. The Southeast
Atlantic region also is producing worth
while ball players and will have a
league in 1892, and Oklahoma has be-
come the home of good young players,
region that can be exploited by the
American League as well as the Ma
tional League.
THE expansion of the idea Of chain
i Of minor leagues as a tail to a
major league comet, is another de-
velopment of the long continued fight
between the minors and majors which
bids fair never to be settled Back Of
it ell is the draft law, which cannot be
eradicated from base ball without sub
jecting the game at once to the con-
spiracy laws against labor and this
would bring court action within a rea-
sonable time by some group of sports
speculators convinced that all base ball
is a gold mine.
The st. Louis Cardinals began an
nexation Of minor league clubs because
Of inability to pay such large sums as
$50, 900 for individual ball players. The
st. Louis owners maintained that it was
cheaper to operate clubs in minor
leagues and develop players than it was
to purchase releases of minor league
players.
They seem to have found this meth
cd profitable. because the team now
has such a rich surplus Of players that
1t has turned salesman itself. 1t dis
posed of players in its minor league
clubs to major league clubs and recent
