Kaxsas City, Nov. 18.—(Spec ial Telegram to Tie Bek. |—President Speas intends stay- ing in the Western league and furnishing good ball next season. He said to-day: Of course, 1 will have to let some of my high sataried players go, and I have a number of ehances to sell several of them, but I shall not weaken tho box much, and pitchers are what count, after all. Kven the way things are now, there-will not be much difierence between the playing of the Associution and the Western leage next year, und if tho players’ league begins to sign ' the stars of the American association that organization ‘will be in a bad box indeed. There is more for a Kansas City club in vlaying in Omaha, Bt Paul ard Des Moines, than in playing in Louisville, Columbus, Syracuse and Detroit. Elmer Smith will be retained on account of his hitting _ability, and he will be played in the outficld when not 1n the box. Healy and Conway will be released and Swartzel, Sowders and Pears will stay in as pitchers. 1 think these pitchers over- top any in the Western association, and whilo 1 do not know exactly what players we will secure, I can promise a winning team. _ The catchers will be Gunson and either Don- ahue or Hoover, and at leust ane more out- flelder will be signed. I have becu in the business for the fun of the thmng for two Yyeurs, and with a good club next year Ithink we can do what we have never done before— make woncy.
