TO LEAD INTS
International League's Fate
Still Hangs in a
Balance.
Baltimore. Md.. J?n. ?-The meet
in?; of the commission thl? werk will
probably have little or no effect upon
the fate of the International Lesene.
The major? may net together and
tell bow vital It I? for the circuit to
keep going ?nd that it should he given
every encoursgement. but thst will
shout let out their efforts. They have
sto-Ka idly by for a long while now
and there Is no occasion for expect
ing them to step up snd do snything
where tt will cost one penny. It's not
In their Mood.
The fate of the International con
tlnues to get considerable attention
throunhout the land. The feeling Is
more or less general that the organi
sation will stsrt next season. Talli
that the orgsnlxatlon will suspend
can scarcely be hesrd. even In th?
towns which did ?It the croaking 1-e
fore the December session of th?
league. Various folks are being
named ?a probable successor? to Kd
Barrow, hut It would not he ? bad bet
to say that the man who will succeed
lo the *oh has not as yet been men
tioned, and this Includes Pat Powers,
Jim Price. Charley Chnrln. Joe Lnn
nln. and last but not least. Charle?
H. Knapp, of Baltimore.
Hearken unto the following choice
bit by a Buffalo scribe:
"Jack Dunn, of Baltimore, who
cast his vote against Barrow at the
recent meeting, also ha? a candi
date for president of the league.
Dunn thinks that Charle* H. Knarp.
a lawyer, who Is interested in the
Baltimore team, would make an
Ideal man for the Job. Knapp, who
has a large legal practice, couldn't
he expected to give up his law bus
in??? for 12.BOO. the salary fixed for
the International League head, and
unless the headquarter? of the or
ganlxation I* moved to Baltimore
the ?election of Knapp would be
out of th? question. Therein lies
th, secret of Dunn'? desir? to ?ee
Knapp made president.

HERZOG DEAL
NOT DENIED
Officials of Giants Give Im
pression that Trade with
Braves Will Be Made.
Off!. lals of the New Tork National
League baseball club today refused to
deny or affirm a statement aeoredited
to Walter Hapgood, business manager
ot the Beaton Braves, to the effect that
Charley HerxoC would be traded to
the Brav?? tn exchange for I?iny
Doyl?. Dick Rudolph and one or two
other players.
When questioned Marry N. Hemp
stead, president of the Olanls. request
ed that he not be asked the direct
question whether such a deal was
pending and referred the Evening
Telegram reporter to John B. Foster,
the club's secretary. Mr. Hempetead s
tone gave the Impression that a denl
betwe p the ?Hants and Brave? for
maraa? I? pending if it has not already
bee* ? ?ummated.
John Foster when questioned said?
"Nnthlnir Hn?l has been dono by the
New York club that I know of. 1
have no authority to ?ay a deal of
thia kind has been concluded. I was
with McGraw on Saturday afternoon
and he ?aid nothing about having made
any euch trade, and I don't think he
would h?v? concluded such ? transac
tion without notifying me. Whether
he Is on the point of making a trndo
of this nature I do not know."
It' w?s Impossible to communicate
with McOrew. but the attitude uf both
Mr. Hempstead and Mr. Foster leads
to the belief that a deal with llrrlog
involved la pending. Whether Larry
Iioyle, who until two years ago was
field captain ?nd second baseman for
the Giants, is to be included in an
exchange of players In a matter of
conjecture, since local officials ret?ase
to Intimale what players mieht ?-ome
to New York In a trade for Ifersog.
That there Is an open breech be
tween Herzog and Mi-Oraw ami the
New York club has been known for
some time. It has been widened fol
lowing the announced Intention of
Herzog to bring an action against the
Hi ?nts to reoover the WOO salary held
out by the club a? a penalty for his
having left the club and returned to
his horn? In Maryland without permis
sion Just before the Quants left on
their last Western trip last season.
During the annual meeting of the
National League In this city Herzog
stated he was through with McGraw:
that he would not play ball for him
any more. Convinced that this I?
true. It I? probable Mdlraw is trying
to engineer a trade whereby the play
ing strength of the club will not be
Impair? d by the loss of the second
baseman.
FRAZEE IS ABOUT
TO PULL BIG DEAL
New York. Jen. ?.?Hurry ? Frasee. '
president of the Red Sox. who re- j
eently purchased Shang, Bush and
Strunk from the Athletic.?* for |_MM
:i'id two players, announces that he Is
nbout to ?\vmif another dc.il that will
?eclipse the Ii*..
"The deat I am about to put ncross

says. "It In a swap that will be of
treat benefit to the I.ed Sox and the
other team. It will Ue equivalent to
clinch ing the pennant for us. I n m
positive. It will be a bier boom for the
other team, strengthening them where
! most needed. Thia Atol will mean
more than the other one."
Frazee gave no iniimatlon a? to
which players he would Include in the
Ited Sox end of the ,-w.ip. but Mat.-d
that there was no chance of the deal
falling through.
