TYRUS COBB SIGNS UP FOR THREE YEARS Detroit Slugger Is Said to Receive $15,000 Per Season As at Present. Detroit, Aug. 12.—Tyrus Cobb, cen- terfielder of the Detroit Tigers, signed a new three year contract with the club yesterday. The new contract does not contain the ten day clause and Cobb’s signing it silences for good and all the boasts of the Federal cuit. It is not denied even by Feds that the new form of contract sons of 1915, 1916 and 1917. President Navin requested Ty to sign a contract minus the objection- able clause for the purpose of spik- ing the Federals’ guns and prevented their getting a lot of cheap adver- tising by claiming that the Georgian intends to jump. The contract under .which Ty now is working contains the ten day provision. This document still has another year to rum, but will be superseded by the new instru- ment at the beginning of the 1915 season. The salary named in the new con- tract is the same as Cobb is receiving this year. The exact amount is not the club officials, but it is believed generally to be $15,000 or better. ONE ON TAYLOR. John I. Taylor, when he was presi- dent of the Boston Red Sox, sent a bush leaguer back to the minors. The club owed him a small sum and on pay day it was sent to him Two days later Taylor was surprised to find the busher practicing on Fenway park. “Here,” he said, “what are you do- ing back in Boston?” “You sent for me,” said the bush- er. “I didn’t,” said Taylor, “Where did you get that idea?” “I got the letter,” replied the bush- er. He produced it and pointed to the envelope where was printed “Return in five days to Boston American League B. B. Club.” J But, unlike most stories where the this busher did not get the job and make a hig hit thereaf- ter. CRABS UMPIRES TOO MUCH. President O’Rourke read the riot act to Manager Boultes, of the Bridge- port club, at a conference held yes- terday in the Eastern association ex- ecutive’'s office. Jake was notified that he must stop picking on the um- pires. The Bridgeport manager is an aggressive player and finds it hard to keep quiet if a close decision goes against his club. President O’'Rourke’s patience was exhausted last week when Boultes got into trouble with Umpire Kelly in Hartford and was fined $5. After being told that such conduct would no longer be tolerated, Jake held up his hand and declared he would not bother the umpires any more. First Baseman Ens, of the Bolts, has also been notified to ap- pear on the carpet and hear a few words from the umpire. LEAGUE MEETING TOMORROW. President James H. O’Rourke yes- terday called a meeting of the East- ern association magnates for the Ho- tel Garde in New Haven tomorrow night at 8 o’clock, at which time the matter of club assessments and other pressing business will be taken up. The fact that the game is not pay- ing in many of the cities in the cir- cuit is believed to be the cause of the meeting, and it is likely that some steps Will be taken to curtail the club expenses for the rest of the season.

It Is Federal league fences for 1915 are being constructed. It was learned yes- terday that the magnates have come to the conclusion that the league could be strengthened with Kansas City out of the line-up and there is a slim chance of the Missouri town Four cities are being considered in place of Kansas City—Cleveland, To- ronto, Cincinnati and Detroit, in order named. The chances are strong that Toronto, which is considered the best city in the International league, will be the one. It is known that President Gilmore is strong for Cincinnati, but other owners do not fancy Garry Herr- mann’s town. Detroit is considered as a possibility, while Cleveland is a third choice. According to authoritative re- ports, the losses of Kansas City this vear will not be large. It is said that $15,000 will cover the deficit for the season, due largely to the economi- cal pay roll and the small investment in the ball park. The main reason for cutting out the city on the Kaw is the added mileage. It had been the original plan of the league to get Torento into the circuit, but time was too short and Kansas City was taken instead. MESSAGES NOT ACCEPTED.
