Third St ll jj "WHERE THE STYLES ORIGINATE" 1 5 GLEASON OUT OF BASEBALL Veteran, Released by White Sox, Will Retire From the Game "Kid" Gleason, veteran player, for mer member of the Phillies, and for the past three years assistant manager to Jimmy Callahan, of the Chicago White Sox, declares that he is out of baseball forever. Gleason was given his uncon ditional release on Tuesday by Clarence Rowland, the new manager of the Chi cago Americans. Gleason has no fault to find because of his release, and, as is characteristic with him, has nothing but good words for the Chicago Club. President Co miskev, ex-Manager Callahan and the new manager. Gleason says he is will ing to step down and give the younger fellows a chance. He also declares the White Sox will have a splendid ball team in the field next season and that the new manager is capable of getting all there is to be gotten out of his players. l-iast spring the Federal Neague was after Gleason, but he turned l down a liberal offer, and since the close of last, season has had an ott'er to manage the Brooklyn Club, of the independent league. Gleason has a wonderful record since he began as a pitcher for the H'ilkes-Rarre Club back in 1885. He is one of the best known and most popular men in the game to day and his presence will be missed. He would make an excellent manager for some team, and it was hoped that he won U be given the position of manager of the New York Yankees when the club was sold. Lobert Sees McGraw New York, Dec. 31. —Hans l-iobert, third baseman of the Phillies, arrived in this city yesterday and immediately went into conference with John J.
