Doe Tinker Says He Is Willing 4 to Agree to Cast His Lot in ¥ Brooklyn Next Season, By Bozeman Bulger. ND now comes another equawk to doturd the peace and foy of our quletide. This time Joe Tinker f@ om the warpath, and the upheaval is / wreaking out in a new place. Reticence fe @ good thing im tte way, but the “rotting” ceases to be good business, eecerding to Joe's way of whee it begins to look Itke the vacancy Je by the absence of ten thousand old plimks, Foe, indeed, the former Red manager. & sow willing to taik freely tf not Guently about his ultimate intentions. ‘Unt& Josephus heard thet the Reds ‘were going to back out of the Brooklyn tangle without turning loose that $10,000 ‘vormus tt was hard for him to make up ‘hie mind whether he wanted to go to Brooklyn or not-ewful hard. Now, listen to our ériend Joe: “I can't #ee where the Cincinnatt Stockholders have a right to repudiate ® deal made between Mr. Herrmann and Mr. Ebbets. The deal was made in absolutely good falth, and I have just received a letter from Mr, Eibete giving me official notification. I 4id say that I preferred Chicago or Pitta. burgh, but, remember, I was ati cons sidering Brooklyn. In my opinion the league will see that the agreement ts carried out,” At any rate, if it wam't {t woukl be Mo fitting way to treat Joseph. There Js nothing lke @ $10,000 honus to smoke @ ball player out. As man to man, What is your opinion as to what Joo will do if Garry Herrmann gives him A Tash at that big check? Do you a think he will acquire a sudden fond- ‘ness for the city of Brooklyn and its Deople? When Ohartle Ebbets heard of thie latest squawk fis cat-that-ate-the- canary smile grew broader than ever. The history-making squire of Flatbuah, now knows where he atands, Tinker is willing to take the ju the Cincinnati directors will hav. Yen, and those Red disturbers will hi ee, a freight. Yhen the trouble first broke out, Mr. Bhwets, considerably dieturbed, con municated with Wilbert Robinson, who pal a ace Robby’s reply was very factory and aleo ve tpreut coach, tA INE fou've got the goods, Charley.

Robby intends to break into the first division, no matter what ft may cost Mr. Ebbets and the Mc- Keevers, and, unlike the unfortunate me ‘Tinker, the stockholders are with ind to, ave The duyedin-the-woot fans of New York, notwithstanding kid- ding aseurances in the news- papers, are getting mighty ner- vous about thie Tilly Shafer Dusiness. Tilly's past record as @ temperamental athiete ia very much against him, and the fane are ready to believe any despatch ‘gent owt of Los Angeles, even though they take other things sent out of that burg with a grain ef aatt. Los Angeles and Pitts- Durgh have the reputation among Baseball people of having started mor wild rumors than all the vest of the cities combined, SHU, then it comes to upheaving, those amitious acribes have nothing on Tilly.

There | ig no telling what a Cincinnat! board of directors will do, however, and it, may be that they expect Charlie to step | right in and settle the Tinker matter with Ebbets.
