A large yellow touring car ran into William Sweeney’'s team Wednesday evening near Frank Evans' ice house at about 5 o'clock.. Spectators who saw the accident claim that the auto- mobile was driven in a reckless man- ner and thet the driver of the auto- mobile was to blame for the accident. ‘The automobile after hitting Mr. Sweeneys team tore down a large por- tion of the fence opposite the ice house. The team was damaged con- siderably and the automobile also re- ceived some bruises, but neither the occupants of the automobile nor of the wagon were injured.

Cincinnati, O., Dec. 23.—The Chicago Natlonals and the St. Louis Ameri- cans are exempt until the year 1917 from that provision under which or- ganized baseball now is working, lim- iting the number of players of each team on the 20th of May of each year. This is part of the baseball peace agreement that was signed here last night, according to August Hrrmann, chairman of the national commission. Mr. Herrmann made this announce- ment tonight when told that Harry Sinclair, one of the Federal league peace conferees, had stated that there would be no player limit in baseball next year. In the National league the number of players limited to a team is 21 while in the American league the lim- it is fixed at 25. “Owing to the combination and amalgamation of two clupbs in the Federal league to a club in the N: tional and one in the American league we considered it unjust to ask the clubs to dispose of what would nat- urally be considered a large number of players,” said Mr. Herrmann. Clubs Have 50 Players. “I cannot say accurately, but I es- timate that with the Chicago Cubs absorbing the Chicago Federals and the St. Louis Browns taking in the St. Louis Federals cach of these clubs will have close to 50 players at the present time, “It would be unjust to ask them to dispose of such a large number as would be necessary in order to cut down to the limit under which organ- ized baseball is now working. There- fore we gave them untit 1917 to dis- pose of the surplus players. Other Majors Not Exempt. When asked if any or all clubs in the major leagues would be exempt from the limit, or the rule would be abrogated until 1917, Mr. Herrmann said: “Absolutely no. The other fourteen teams of the major leagues will ob- serve the limit. In so far as I know there is no movement on foot to do away with the limit rule. In the opin- ion of all baseball men it is an ex- cellent rule, but circumstances made it necessary to give the new prospec- tive owners of the Chicago Cubs and the St. Louis Browns a fuir ci dispose of their surplus players.” COACH FRANK HINKEY TALKS FOOTBALL Looks Upon His Engagement as Head Coach as Purely Business Proposi- tion. Frank A. Hinkey, the head coach of Yale's lamentable football teams of the last two seasons has denied the report that he had left the city for a short trip stating that he has been in New Haven ever since the football season, and intends to remain until after the holidays. Just what he in- tends to do after that appears uncer- tain. When qeustioned regarding the football situation Mr. Hinkey's atti- tude was that of man who having been engaged to put through a busi- nness proposition, accomplished the purpose to the best of his ability, and although having his personal opinion as to the cuases of the eleven’s fail- ure to make good, refuses to lay the blame on the shoulders of anybody. If he feels dissatisfied with the part played by any of his colleagues, Mr. Hinkey is too wise a man to put himself in the way of false accusa- tions by making uncomplimentary statements. The politics and partialities in re- gard to Yale football have never in- terested me in the least,” declared the coach, “I have kept my hands out of them entirely. As to what _the policy is of those who control Yale football T am not informed. I don’t even know that they have any. All I know is that I was engaged at a fixed salary just like you or anyone else. I look at the matter purely as a business proposition.” Mr. Hinkey seemed to doubt that he could ever be rightly considered s at the head of the football situa- tion, intimating that he was subject to_the will of those who engaged him. When asked whether he expected to return next year and fullfil his con- tract, which has another vear to runm, Mr. Hinkey declared that it was not a question for him to decide. It is a business agreement, and if those be- hind the screens of Yale football FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET WAS FEATURELESS. Apart from a Broader Inquiry for Leading Railway Shares.

It is felt by many that no personal blame should be attached to Frank Hinkey for his failure. He did his best, but circumstances were pitted against him: in trying to build up an efficient gridiron aggregation, he had to fight against a powerful enemy, the common frailties of human na- ture. It takes and exceptional strong executive to overcome the petty dis- sension and, unworthy society politics that are bound to arise from time to time in college athletics. A man who can lift the men away from themselves and work single mindedly for the cause of Yale Is needed. It is up to the committee to find such a man before next year. Then and then only will the stigma of the pitiful machines become a thing of the past. showing of Yale's recent gridiron —New Haven Journal-Courier. HANS WAGNER CAPTAIN. Manager Callahan Makes Early Ap- pointment for Pittsburgh Club. Manager James J. Callahan of the Pittsburgh Nationals has appointed Hans Wagner captain of his club. Says Callahan: ‘There are a great many things on which that old boy can give me and all the rest of us pointers. He is a living encyclopedia of baseball knowledge, and what he doesn’t know about the game hasn't been discovered vet. The great stars of the diamond may come and go, but Wagner will stand out forever as the greatest of them all. There never has been an- other like him, and I doubt if there ever will be. “I intend to rely upon Wagner in many things in the operation of our team next year. One of the matters I wish to take up with him early is the question of a_training camp for next spring. We have not yet decided to abandon Hot Springs, but possibly we may do so if we can settle upon an- other place offering greater advan tages. 1 shall be guided largely by Wagner’s views on the matter.” is 80| that he| T Has Disposition of Stars. St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 23.—*“I have the disposition of the Kan: City, B falo and Newark Federal league pl el and I hold the contracts of Benny Kauff, Lee Magee and orge Ander- son, all of the Brooklyn Federals.” This statement was made tonight by Harry F. Sinclair, oil magnate of Tul sa, Okla., and retiring baseball pro- moter. “You can sa; said Sinclai the owner of the Cincinnati Nationals yesterd. offered me $5,000 for Pitcher Moseley of Newark and that the own- er of another National league club of- fered me $15,000 for Magee. Moseley will to Cincinnati is soon as I get the $5,000. Magee, however, is worth much more money than 15,000 in my estimation and he will not go for that figure. These two offers are in an- swer to published statements that the National league owners have agreed not to take any Federal league pla ers.” Mr. Sinelair declined to go into de- tai as to how he acquired Kauff, Magee and Anderson or how he hap- pened to have the Kansas City, New- ark and Buffalo plavers on his hands. He denied, however, that he was the liquidating agent of the Federal league. “that Trinity Football Schedule.
