The Star. OHNNY TOBIN'S career Griffman and, probably, as leaguer, is ended. In announcing today that Outfielder Danny obtained from Butfalo of the International league in exchange sent to Griftith as a a major Tay- J lor, for Alex Ferguson, had reported here and would be immediately join the Nationals at Boston in place of Tobin, President Clark gave additional evidence of the club's intention to weed out the veterans and rebuild with young blood, aud settled beyond any doubt the fact that Washington got all the worst of the trade that brought Tobin and Joe Bush to the Capital and sent Jez Zachary and Win Ballou to the Browns. Bush last week was given his nmumlumn.fl release after proving one of the worst flops in the history of the local club, and this also is to be the fate of Tobin, unless it is found that he can be used in some sort of a trade.
