It is alled St. Louls and it boasts, among other causes for pride, a citizen of tho name of Samuel Breadon. Sam is president of the St. Louis Cardinals, and is also justly esteemed because of o monumental itch in his palm. It is such a stupefying and record-shat- tering itch that it takes more than $200,000 and four lusty ball players o atch it. That is to say, unless the players are picked men with eclally sharp nalls. lamily John J. McGraw, who has been try- ng o David-Harum Mr. Breadon out of & cholce young player known as Rogers Hornsby for last four weeks, can tell you all about this wonderful iteh John Started In mneonchalantly, chewing a straw and acting as if he AMein't know just how he could uso Hornsby if he had him, but thought he might come In handy If one of the regulars should happen to be laid up. From this stage ho progressed by de- gpeon to mild bidding, which present- became substantial and then trantic. His most recent offer, which culminat- od yesterday ineffectively, included his shirt and such other portons of his wardrobe as could be spared in a clement Winter. «~Within the last forty.e'ght hours re- newed dickering between the two lubs led to a proposition that Breadon should ship his able second baseman to New York and aceept in exchange therefor $200,000 in cash and four players, as yot unnamed. Breadon was in févor of having them named, how- ever, and started in to name them himself. He began by a casual men- tion. of Frank Frisch—and stopped there in order to help revive McGruw from a swoon. It's a hard job to re- vive a fainting man by cable, and Mec- Grgw is in Cuba. Nevertheless, it is nown that he has been revived, for additional messages have been received from him. The first one offefed to hrow in the club franchise and the g plant In Havana, but this is rdly belleved to have been a sincere 'and kindly proffer. If it was, McGraw must have reconsidered, for his next and final cable, while betraying a de- wire that Breadon should have a warm plage to stay for the rest of the Win. L and _even suggesting ‘s possible narflon of such a resort, made no mention of it. fThere remains for the Glants’ man- ager a consolation prize in the fact that he is now on record as having o the most substantial offer for a player in all the annals of baseball.
