DAVY JONES QUITS DIAMOND

Former Tiger Has Given Up Spangles and Will Devote Time Henceforth to His Business.

Chalk up another closing chapter for a veteran of the diamond. Davy Jones, ex-Tiger and ex-Rebel, has • given up the spangles and announced that henceforth all his time will be given over to his business in Detroit. President E. W. Gwinner said that Jones made a settlement with the Pittsbui%h club, receiving $1,200 to give up his contract, which was for this season

only. He admitted to the official that he could not play six games a week, and would rather quit altogether than draw money for bench warming. He has been injured frequently this season and has not been of much use to his club.
