Sent . New York, Aug. 14—The hatchet 81l on the necks of three Yanks yes- terday, two of whom have been land- marks - around these parts. Harry Sparrow yesterday passed around the knowledge that Catcher Ed. Sweeney Pitcher Jack Warhop and Substitute First Baseman Charley Mullen have all been released to the Baltimore Internationals. The trio will report to their new club next Monday. It was known that Sweeney was on the market, but Warhop's release came as a surprise. The three play- ers were offered to Indianapolis in -the Tipple deal, but Jack Hendricks re~ fused to take them. All three players are signed to’ War contracts and the Yanks will be compelled to pay the greater part of their salaries. Sweeney will be the highest salaried man in the minors, as he has an $8,000 contract which does not expire until the end of next sea- son. Ban Johnson signed Sweeney to this contract last winter. Warhop also signed a high-salaried three-year contract last winter. in telling of the release of these play ers Business Manager Sparrow said: “We have to pay them anyhow, so we might as well put them in a place where they will have to work for their money.” Sweeney and Warhop are the real veterans of the Yanks. Ed. came here in summer of 1908 and Warhop in the fall of the same year, Sweeney coming, from Atlanta and Warhop from Williamsport. Mullen came from the Lincoln Western league team last season.- He was manager of that club when Irwin signed him. Cree is now the veteran of the club, as he came here in the spring of 1909, though for cowutinuou ser- vice the honor belonzs to Ray Fisher, who also joineu the team in 1909, COFFEY AND MORAN MATCHED.
