LATEST TRIBE DEAL BRINGS VETERAN OUTFIELDER HERE
REILLEY BACK WITH INDIANS; ! HALL IS LOST Duke’s Evident Comeback With Bat Gets Him His Old Job. TRIBE AT MINNEAPOLIS *? - TWt Hon. Alexander Dulse Rellley Is an I:i'i}%n again. President Smith returned to the i ;tje .-today ami right on his heels came Kelljey. gold tooth an’ everything. fitbith found the Duke over in Oil City, and after a brief conference the vetwas re-signed to an Indianapolis Jbtraet and left at noon for Minneapo- ■ s to ]oin the team. ■ Rellley was sold to the Salt Lake City V-lnb of the Pacific Coast league last winiter. opened the season with the team and Iplayed one month, hitting .333. Then the [Duke decided he did not want to play in the “Salted City” any longer and he hopped all the way e.-tst to Oil City. BATTING AVERAGE ATTRACTS HENDRICKS. Learning of Duke's comeback with tbe bat Manager Hendricks rushed Vice President Smith east to confer with the player while arrangements were made with Salt Lake to repurchase the outfielder. The upshot of the matter resulted in Rellley being signed, and once more the flashy outfielder and speedy base runner will appear in the Tribe’s left garden. The only reason Duke was sold last winter was because of weak hitting, and now that he has displayed signs of doing a comeback with the bat he doubtless will pnt some ginger in the Indian’s defense and offense. While In the east Vice President Smith conferred with Barney Dreyfuss of tbe Pittsburg Nationals, and the l’lrate owner is making every effort to aid the Hoosiers with pitching talent. Other clubs that have prom’sed aid are the Chicago Cnbs and New York Giants. Therefore, it looks like a matter of waiting, and if the present Tribe staff will brace until help comes tbe club still will have an excellent chance of getting up in the ruunning. Vice President Smith will remain here, while Secretary finite” finishes the road trip with the Indians. Pitcher Herb Hall has decided to remain out of league baseball and now Jack Hendricks is put to further task in reorganizing his twirling staff. In the last deal in which Hall figured he was traded by the Kansas City Blues for Cal Crum and everything seemed rosy for tbe exchange, but today something happened that has knocked the proposition into a cocked hat again. The mayor of Logansport and baseball LOGANSPORT PITS m BIG BOM S. fans of that city heard of Hall s intention to join the Indianapolis club and they immediately launched a fund, it is
•aid, with the object in view of treating a bonus that Hall looks upon with favor Herb has been pitching Sunday ball for Logansport anil he has established •nch a grand record that the fans there don't want him to leave. Hall Is employed at the Nordyke-Mar-mon plant in this eily and now it is likely that he will remain there and pitch once a week for Logansport: The Mormon officials had agreed to give Hail a leave of absence In order to permit him to pitch for the Indianapolis club thi* summer, but It is evident that Logansport is not going to let loose of its popular twirler. In a previous attempt at a deal. Outfielder Zwllling was traded for Hall, who is under reserve to Kansas City. That proposition fell through, however, re opened later, cancelled, then reopened this week with Cal Crum Involved. No wthe latest deal seems to be off. so the Tribe pitching staff remains the game, with owner Smith. Vice President Smith and Manager Hendricks burning up the wires trying to land new talent. INDIANS STILL IN SCRAPPY MOOD MINNEAPOLIS, May 20,-Tne Indians and Millers were ready to meet for the first time this season and at the pace Pongo Joe ,Cantil!on's gang has been going local fins expect to see their favorites wallop the Hoosiers. In the past, however. Indianapolis has been no easy team for the Millers to handle and due to the fact that the Indians were set back at Kansas City they are here fired with determination to start something like a winning streak. The Tribesmen are handicapped by poor pitching and a weak hitting outfield; that much is known hi •*. but de spite that, 10.-al Urns realize the Hoosiers have a fighting spirit that ;s hard to smother. , Therefore, the four-game series starting today no doubt will prove popular from a local standpoint. The Millers had their winning streak cracked by the Saints yesterday and it may be that the one-day set back will work to the advantage of Jack Hendricks’ club. Rogge was up for a turn on the mound this afternoon. He has bee** *~o*-worked •lightly, but was wilito*. o face the Millers in the opener, nevertheless. Petty is about ready to return to the mound, after si\ffering from an attack of bolls and he will appear in the present series.

Big League Stuff Ooveleskie. the Cleveland star, held the Yankees to six scattered hits .yesterday anil shut them out. The suspension of Manager MfOraw evidently peeved the Giants, who turned loose a landslide of runs on the Cubs. Hornsby's triple with the bases full In the* fifth inning featured the Bt. Louis victory over the Phillies. Tim Hendryx’s timely single, after Menoskey had tripled in the seventh, enabled the Red Sox to beat Chicago. Timely hitting by lilgbee, Carey and Southu orth behind Cooper's fight pitching gave the Pirates a victory over Boston. Naylot bad a bail first inning when tbe Tigern drove home three runs, but the A.'s orune from behind and drove Oldham from the box. Wilson Fewster, the New York American third baseman who was seriously In Jured by a pitched ball on the training trip, ha's rejoined the Yankees, but it probably will be several weeks before he will take his regular position on the field. Fewster was hit at the base of the skull and an operation was necessary to restore his speech. The release of Catch er Fred Hager to the Atlanta club of the Southern association ilso was announced by the club.

PERMITTED TO EXHIBIT RECORD CAR. The fact that Milton by contract Is permitted to exhibit the Duesenberg car with which he broke all speed records at Daytona Beach recently, caused Milton to reconsider his announced step to drive another car in the race. The Duesenberg race cars are being shipped to Indianapolis and are due to arrive Monday of next week. They will be piloted by Milton, captain of the team, and by the well-known race performet*— Eddie Hearne, Jimmy Murphy and Eddie O'DouueU.

Jules Goux of the Peugeot team de clarea Andre Bolllot, hla team mate and famous French ace, waa seasick from the day he bought his ticket.
