Notwithstanding the sale, Gardher 1s wtlll in New York and Harry Davis refuses to put his name in the pot with the Cleveland Club. Davis in- timates that he has been sold a gold briok, and, not hafkering after that kind of wealth, Harry has docided that he will stake Wolverton to the former second baseman.
