Chicago, Jan. £.—The long promised rald on the major leagues for baseball talent has begun in earnest by the Federal league, accordning to Joe Tinker, manager of the Chicago club, | who left tonight on a trip which h he says will take him to the homes of | many players who have won fame in the National and American leagues. | _Otto Knabe of the Baltimore and { Mordecai Brown of the St. Louis clubs | soon will start on similar pilgrimages, | Tinker seid. Tinker refused tto name any of the players he intends to visit or to say when or where his first stop would be. It was reported he would first go to Kansas City, where he would get the signature of Clarence Hendricks to a contract. Tinker said he believed Hendricks to be & pitcher with a fature, and it is known he has constdered him as a poseibie member ot the Chicago club. Tinker left the city a few hours after the return of President Murphy_of the Chicago Na- tionals. Murphy has been in Cfnc nati at_the national commission mes ing. The Cub president asserted learned there that . Tinker's dlsregard | of rules governing drinking was one of the reasons why he was released by | the Cincinnat! club. “Last s-ason was my Most success- ful in baseball, and if I thought m success was due o drinking I would spend more time at the bar” was Tinker’s reply. “T led the league short- stops in hitting. T was not such a hard drinker that fhe Brooklyn club hesi- tated to pay $25000 for my services without consulting me. “Mr, Murphy himself had a_conver- sation with me after the Brooklyn ne #otiations had started, and in violatic fo the national agreement. He sal he had paid 310,000 for the services of | Roger Bresnahan and hinted that he, thought as highly of my ability to play | ball.” Baftic Wins from New London. Baltic defeated the Central .

NO CONCERTED ACTION AGAINST THE FEDERALS.| Each Club Will Be Expected to Look After Its Own Interests. New York, Jan. 8.—“The major| leagues will take no concerted action against the Federal league, but each club wil be expected to look after its own interests,” President Harry Hemp- stead of the New York National league | club asserted upon returning to his| office here from the recent meeting of | the national baseball commission in Cineinnati. | The the Federal league | as, of discussed,” said M. empstead, “alluding to what took | place at the meeting, “but we did not regard it seriously; and we do not think enough of it to take any concert- | ed action against it. If the Federal league takes any plavers from any of our i 11 be up to the clubs individually protect their rights. Though the Federals may get a major | league player here and there, it cannot Dbe taken as anything more than a min- or_orgenization.” Sixteen of the Giants have signed their 1914 contracts, Hempstead an- | nounced. i PLAYERS SATISFIED.

November Statement. New York, Jan. $.—Although there were symptoins of weakness In various quarters at the outset today, the gen- eral movement was upward. Reading, especially, was in active demand, and under the lead of that stock quotations advanced moderately. The market failed, however, to malntain its strength and during the latter part of the day it slipped backward until prices in some instances were de- pressed below vesterday's close, Reduction in the Bank of England's discount rate from 5 to 4 1-2 per cent exerted an important influence on sen- timent for a time, assisting in the up- turn in stocke. The effect of the| change in the discount rate was In- creased by the exceptionally strong state- ment, disclosing an increase in the proportion of reserve to liabilities from 33.39 to 49.34 per cent. There was, evidence of improving conditions in the domestic money market also. Call | loans were renewed at % 1-2 per cent., and lower rates were guoted for time loans and mercantile discounts. The afternoon recession in stocks | was -influenced by several develop- ments. The monthly copper statistic showed an increase in stocks of 43,500, 000 pounds, a much larger falling off in | <consumption than had been expected. Domestic deliveries were the smallest of any month of the five years in| which the producers’ association has | been issuing reports. The fortnightly statement of idle freight cara likewise was unexpectedly poor, disclosing an increase of 83,000. The copper stocks, which had held up well in the fore- | noon, sold off sharply on the appear- | ance of the statement. Another dis- turbing feature was the acute weak- ness of American Sugar, which sold off over four points. New Haven also declined abruptly, owing to the poor showing of the road’s November state- ment. Figures for that month dis | closed a deficit of $330,000 in et cor- porate income, a falling off of $672,000. Bonds were irreguiar, with an up ward trend. Total sales, par value, $2,750,000.
