MONDAY EVENING,™
FEDERAL AGENTS
WORK IH HARRISBURG
Jumpers Lose Out With Outlaws;
Sent to Bush Leagues;
Heavy Penalties
Federal League agents are again
among the players oS the International
League and it is said that several
members of the Harrisburg club have
been approached by the outlaw scouts
in an effort to drag them away from
organized baseball.
Many players who wero offered
ironclad contracts and induced to
leave the International and major
leagues to join the Feds are now being
turned loose, first being sent to a Col
onial League in New England, and If
they balk in going to the bushes they
are cast adrift without any hope of
getting into organized baseball. Just
how many Harrisburg playerß have
been approached is not known but it
is not expected that any will be so
foolish to fall for the supposed tempt
ing bait that the Fed scouts are put
ting forth, t
Jumpers Lose Out
Harrisburg fans will remember Ed
die Holly who years ago played short
stop for the Johnstown Tri-State club.
Holly jumped from the International
League to the Pittsburgh Feds and a
few weeks ago he was ordered to re
port to the Colonial League, a Fed
farm in small New England towns.
Holly refused to go and he was sus
pended and is now without a job
either in outlaw or organized baseball.
Players who leave organized baseball
to join the Federals are automatically
suspended for three an.d five years be
fore they can even ask for reinstate
ment in organized baseball. Russell
Ford who was the star twirler of the
New York Yankees, has been turned
adrift by the Feds, and is now without
a job. A New York newspaper in
commenting editorially on the at
tempted raid of , the International
League clubs by the Feds says:
Should Consider Results
"Underground rumors to the effect
that the Feds are trying to get some
more talent from the International
League clubs are heard these days.
"When a Federal League agent ap
proaches a player in this league, the
player should have some friend near
at hand to paint for him the picture
of the fate of Eddie Holly, Russell
Ford and others who left soft berths
in organized baseball to cast their for
tunes with the Feds.
"How any player can figure that he
is bettering himself by going to the
independents in view of the fate suf
fe»ed by these players, it is hard to
see.
|At the beginning of the Federal
League movement big promises of
ironclad contracts and big salaries were
made to players. Some of those con
tracts are still in force, and much is
heard of them, but concerning the
players let out, who have no other
field of action now except the semi
pros, much less is heard.
"The case of Second Baseman Mc-
Carthy, of the Bisons, who was tempt
ed by the Feds, and who all but jump
ed to the Chifeds, should be remem
bered by all wise players. He decided
to stick with organized ball, as his
chances of promotion to the majors
are bright, and, once he gets there, his
rewards and future will be much
brighter than with the independents.
"Young players going up will think
many times before taking the jump."
Fighter May Lose Hand;
Mother Dreams of Mishap
—■— #
Special to The Telegraph
Allentown, Pa., July 19. Jackie
Clarke, the middleweight boxer, of
Fall River, Mass., who is training in
this city, may lose his hand as the re
sult of a singular accident that befell
him yesterday. Accompanied by
Johnnie Dutkoff, he took a run into
the country, and when an automobile
truck came along the pair hitched on
behind, keeping pace for a time with
the rapidly moving machine.
Finally, the fighters decided to board
the machine. In doing so Clarke ran
his hand into a hook which pene
trated the palm to the depth of half
an inch. Clarke was compelled to run
along with the truck for half a mile
before he could extricate his hand,
the flesh being in the meantime ter
ribly lacerated. The hook was rusty
and If blood-poisoning sets in amputa-
I tion will be necessary.
| By a coincident, Clarke had Just
before received a telegram from his
mother asking for details of an ac
cident that she had dreamed happened
to him, but which as a matter af foct,
had not yet occurred.

THIS BOY IS SO
Graeme Maxwell Snow, the bis backstop of the Harrlsburg Indians has
dumped right to popular favor with the fans, and is now one of the most
popular players on the Indian club, representing Harrlsburg In the Inter
national League.
Snow is just a youngster, being born in Detroit on Nevember 20. 1892.
He attended Detroit High school and played with the school team, being
picked up by the Milwaukee club of the American Association in 1911.
He was sent to EauClair, Wis., and after July 4 went to the Oskosh, Wis.,
club of the Wisconsin-Illinois League with whom he played until the close
of last season when he was purchased by the Brooklyn Nationals. Oskosh
won the pennant last season and It was Snow's work that helped the club
get Its honors.
After being taken South by Brooklyn, Snow was sent to the Newark
club and he has been making a splendid running mate to Heckinger all
season. The popular player now makes his home in Chicago.

"Red" Crane Was Big Drawing
Card; Parade and Presenta
tions; Providence Next
The final busy week in July for the
Indians opened at Island Park this
afternoon. Richmond, the attraction
for three days, promised the locals a
bard battle. The big feature this after
noon was the reception to "Red" Crane,
the Harrlsburg boy.
Friends of Crane planned a big
time. The Good Will band, with many
baseball rooters and members of local
teams, paraded the streets at noon and
later went to the baseball field. Crane
was due for several presentations.
Richmond plays one game to-day. A
double-header is on the card for to
morrow, and the final game will be
played Wednesday.
Providence will be the attraction the
last three days. Only one double
header will be played—on Saturday.
Ladies' day will be observed Friday.
Next week the team will take the road
for two weeks.
The Indians split even in a double
header with Toronto on Saturday. The
first game went to the Maple Leaves
on hits and errors, score 5 to 4. The
second was all Harrisburg, score 7 to 6.

ENGLAND'S WOMEN WIN
j One more change can be prophesied
with certainty, and that a great one:
the women will be given the ballot.
What they could not gain by violence,
by years of propaganda, by peaceful
politics, they have gained by their con
duct in this war—the various woman
suffrage organizations of England.
There can be no doubt upon this sub
ject. I have talked with Englishmen
of influence among constituents of
every shade of political belief and the
verdict is everywhere the same. I was
told it by a leading Conservative, who
headed several fights against woman
suffrage in the House: by another who
has long been an especial target for
thf attacks of Mrs. Pankhurst's organ
ization; by Liberals and Labor mem
bers; by newspaper owners and news
paper editors. Finally X was told it by
that barrister who conducted the last
prosecution that sent Mrs. Pankhurst
to jail.—The Christian Herald.
