Statement Which Causes Sensation in Base= ./ ball Circles. Manager John J. McGraw, of the Giants, threw a-bomb-shell after the game in Brooklyn on Tuesday, when, in no uncertain terms, Ire made known his disgust over the listless, indifferent game his club played against Brooklyn. "I do not say that my players did not try to win." ofa the Giant man- ager, "but they" simply refused to obey m$ orders, and they disregard- ed my signals. When Perritt more than once deliberately took a wind- up with « Brooklyn players on the basesit was too much for me, and I lost my patience. "Such baseball disgusted me, and I left the bench. I do not like in- different playing' of this kind, after the hard work we have -had this sea- son. I refused to be connected with iL" This statement by McGraw sub- stantiates the suspicions which many of the New York fans had when they watched the playing by the Giants, which was plati1y of the bush Jeague calibfe. Manager Mc» Grgw¥first left the bench in the fourth inning, but he returned at the beginning of the fifth, and then be- came so annoyed at the exhibition his players were making that he went to the clubhouse. Although Manager McGraw did not accuse his players of deliberately tossing the game away to Brooklyn, he made it known that | did not play the game of which they | were capable. | + There has been bad feeling be- | tween the New York and Philadel- | phia clubs since 1908, when Cove- | leskie, '"The Giant Killer," spoiled | the Giants' chances to get into tie | world's series. Several times during the few years there have been out- | breaks between the Philadlphia club | and the Giants, one of these being | an attack on McGraw in 1912, which | ended in a near riot, when the New York manager was struck by Addie Brennan, one of the Philadelphia | pitchers. | Manager Wilbert Robinson, of the | Brooklyn club, was greatly surprised ja McGraw's statement "Manager | McGraw's suspicions in this matter | are ridiculous," said Robinson. "His | | statement is. very unsportsmanlike, and 1 am greatly surprised that he j.would say such a thing." { E. P. DEY HAS ASSUMED { The Operation of the Ottawa N. H. | A. Chub. . | rectors of the Ottawa Hockey Club it was stated that the franchise for the coming winter would be turned over to E. P. Dey, manager of the Laurier avenue arena. President Bate and other members of the Ottawa ex- ecutive decided some.weeks ago not to operate the Ottawa Club this year. Mr. Dey subsequently came forward with an offer to assume all responsi- bilities if the Ottawa directors did not care to, do so. At Saturday's mget- ing of the N.H.A. the Ottawas made an effort to have their. franchise maintained without operation for the coming winter. Other clubs re- fused to consent. Mr. Dey's offer wag accepted, and the entire man- agement and operation of the Ot- tawas for the season of 1916-17 turned oder to him. beens WILL NOT REDUCE RACING, New South Wales Premier Rebukes the Fussers. The Sydney . Times says: In the legislative -assembly last week Dr, Arthur raised the question of wheth- er it would not be advisable to follow the lead given by the Victorian gov- ernment and reduce the number of race meetings in New South Wales during war time, The Premier's re- ply was to the effect that he did not favor a curtailment of sport, and with 15,000 miles between us and the seat of war he failed to see that there was any necessity for fussiness on the point. Racing is too big a concern in Australia and the hveli- hood of too many people are ¢oncern- ed for it to be dealt with as lightly as, in ordinary sport. to a minimum in England has finan- cially crippled many men associated with the breeding of thoroughbreds and others, and it may not bé wise in Australia to pay too much attention to those who are opposed to racing, not only in war time, but at all other times, 7 ~ | for stipenfiary stewards yields £4.- the Giants] stewards expressing themselves as | satisfied that no blame attached to | anyone. | i -- | | A woman bookmaker, fined £10 | ; Following a conference of the di- |for street betting at Birmingham, | Its reduction; OUR MILO CIGARS eclipse all others of equal cost and even some that are sold for consider- ably more than our price.
