MeGraw's latest trade, by which he has secured Pitehs er. Arthur Nehf from the Boston Braves, in axchange for Pitchers Ce- cil Causey, Joe Oschegér, John Paul Jones and Catcher O'Neill gIf the Néw York Gants win the pennant now it would not be surprising to see Cin- cinnati secede from the National Lea. gue union. The loud persistent squak goes up that New York is buying the pennant, " "The 'funny part-of it is that West usually laughs at MoGraw's trading ability. In the Off Season the scribes of Chicago, Oincinnati, St. Louis and Pittsburg love to point out how the Giant leader let Eddie Rousir; Heinie Groh, Fred. Merkle, Ernie Shore and other plagérs, who sre now stars with other clubs than New York, slip; through his fingers. ; One of the favorite stories.in the West is of the several times that Me- Graw let Chatley Herzog go, only to pay dearly to gét him back again. And wiién Hal Chusa wats not hitting this spring while Walter Holke was bat- «ting well over 800 for Boston, this fact was offered as further evidence of MeGraw"s lack of astuteness. © But within the past . weeks Mc- Graw has secured Catcher Snyder {from the St.' Odi Gatdinas, Pitcher Douglas from and Pitcher Neh from the Braves. : As & matter of fact, McGraw has strengthened his team materially by these trades. In fact, it is bard to 508 how he can fail to win the pen- fant now. Douglas has worth to the Giant cause. Neht will w.| be even more valuable. already proven 'nis y R. J. Reid LEADING UNDERTAKER % !
