An Interesting Letter from Man?
ager Sommers. .
WILL HAVE A GOOD TEAM.
O'Hagan Will Play First Base Un?
less Purchased by Louisvlle,
Games to be Played in Nor?
folk in April with National
League Teams.
Tdr. Sommer.?, who is nt! Wheel
ing, W. Vs., writes Tin'. Vihoinian
that he has been greatly misrepre?
sented in the press reports sent out
from Washington in regard to his
contracts next year with O'Hngou,
Iloilge and Collitlower. 11 is letter
is as follows:
Wkkkmxo. \y. V\., [
Pecomi er iiltst. 1894.?
Editor of Tbe Yirgiuiani
An article which appeared in a
recent edition of the Sporting Lite
does me an injustice, and I desire to
state tho following tacts concerning
tbe mutter, which will be corrobor?
ated by the throe players men?
tioned, O'llngau, Hodge and Colli?
tlower, if there is anyone inter?
ested enough to investigate tho
matter.
At the end of the Benson
last fall every player ou my team
EXPRESSED A l'F.S! UK
to play with mo again next Benson.
3 did uot wont thorn nil. but those I
did want I re signed at their ow n re?
quest and gave thorn advance moooy.
Among tbe number so signed wero
the three players mentioned ?
Hodge. Collitlower and O'Flugnu.
In tho case of [lodge the amount of
rinlury was loft open, I agreeing to
give him as much as any one else
could, tint Unding that 1 could not
meet the oiler of Mr. Sullivan, of
the Houston toam, on account of our
8800salary limit, 1 released Hodge
from his contract, although Uu
offered to piny for $'200 less lor tbo
Beason thuu Sullivau offered.
In Colliflower's cubo nothing was
Faid about salary, which hu agreed
to leave to me, but
nr bionbd a RECEIPT
for advance money, ngrot ing to play
with me during the season of 18! 5.
Wheu I heard that tie i ad signed
with Houston, 1 learned the amount
of salary he was to receive, and feel?
ing thut 1 could not meet it was wil
ling to lot him go where bo could do
the best for himself. O'Magau und
I ugr< cd upon terms for 1805, at the
end of the season lust full, and I
took bis receipt for advance money
for services to bo roudered by him
during the season of 1895 at a fixed
saiary, and I will bold O'Haguu,
who will play first huso for me next
season unless bis release is purchas?
ed by Louisville, who 1 understand
wants him.
1 HAVE ATTEMPTED NO UIiUFF,
I know that I hud no reservation
aud Beeured the men for the season
of 1895 at their owu request by pay
iug them advance money, President
Youi g has held that the receipts lor
advance money nro good ooutracts,
und i conld hold all these players if
I felt that our little league could af?
ford to meet the oilers of tho Na?
tional League magnates.
1 have arranged for tbo Houston
(Texas) club to meet on tbo Norfolk
grounds in tho spring and 1 will
also have games with Boston, Phila?
delphia, Baltimore and Washington
league clubs in Ibo early part ol
April. Tbe game with Boston will
be about the iltb ol April, but the
date has not yot been fixed.
Yours, Sommers.
