MAJOR QUARREL PROMISED OYER BARNSTORM LAW American League May Fight Rule Forbidding Post-Season Exhibitions of Champs. WILL APPEAL TO JUDGE By DAVIS J. WALSH. NEW YORK. June 13— Having nothing better to occupy them at this time, those gentlemen who head the various major league clubs seem about to declare another inter league war over the anti-barnstorming rule so favorably voted upon by the Heydler circuit. American League magnates, notably Ruppert, Huston and Ran Johnson, are visibly annoyed by the National League’s attitude toward barnstorming, since it fails to serve their best interes's. Ihe memory of Babe Ruth’s suspension, so recent as to be quite poignant, has lined up the American League forces against the rule which forbids players of championship teams to play exhibition games lifter the season is over, and they are all for doing something drastic about it. When Johnson gets around to the matter it is expected that a vote will be taken as a means of sounding Amert can League opinion on the rule and the same forward"*! to Judge Landis tot favorable consideration. Failing to gain this, they promise to do everything whhIn reason to make the National League lot a merry one. Johnson is quite at home at this Jovial little pastime. The tindings of the National League on the rule in question are not deemed to hare been influenced by a spirit of animus, yet they are so constructed by the American magnates. The latter have been going on the assumption that the law. whereby Ruth, Rob Meusel and Rill I’iercy were suspended until May 110, would be abrogated la-fore the end us the present campaign. It is believed that the Yankees signed Ruth and Meusel this season with the un*lerstanding that, win or lose in the Amerioan League race, they would be permitted to barnstorm next fall until cold weather drove them indoors. Judge Landis is not generally given to passing along private assurances of bis future conduct In public and if the Yankees received none, it looks as though they were a bit headlong in their promises to the players in question.

SPEND PLENTY OF COIN FOR PLAYERS
BY BILLY EVANS. Charles Comiskey refuses to be outdone by John J. McGraw. Last fall the manager of the New Y'ork Giants treated a sensation in baseball circles by announcing the oncchase of First Baseman Jimmy U Connell of the Sun Francisco Club for $75,900. It was the highest price ever paid for a minor league ball player. Immediately O'Connell became the most talked about individual in the game. While O’Connell first won fame as a first sucker, in all probability lie will be used in tbe outfield ty McGraw. Now. just as the edge has died off the O’Connell deal, the White Box owner goes McGraw twenty-five thousand simoleons better. The Chicago Ciub recently completed a deal with the San Francisco Club for Third Baseman Willie Kamrn for a price said to be $100,090. It is a rather strange coincidence that these two high-priced athletes should hall from the same minor league club— San Francisco. The native sons of California perhaps give the old climate the credit. What will the harvest be from this fabulous outlay of money on the part of the New Y'ork Giants aud the Chicago White B*>x? YS'ill O'Connell and Kamm lie aide to make good on all the nice things that have been said about their diamond ability? Will the fancy prices that have l>.*er. paid for the two youngsters, couI led with the widespread publicity, affect their piny-? Time alone will tell. The other day n prominent minor league manager showed m<* a letter that he received from Jimmy Byrnes, former catcher for tbe Philadelphia Athletics and now s o ut on the Pacific coast for Connie Mack. "This fellow O'Connell is a great ball player," writes Byrnes, “he can <lo everything well. "McGraw made no mistake in landing him regardle-s --f the price paid. O'Connell can hit. field, throw and run Y'mi will iatigh when 1 call him a second Ty t’obb. There have been a lot of second Ty Cobbs and must us them have 'flivvered ' “This fellow OVimnell will make good beyond a doubt. IB* will remind you of Cobb in many ways.” That makes it look pretty good for O’t 'oil ncll. Kerent!y 1 have been paired tip with I’mpire George Hildebrand, a native son of California, who rails Sun Francisco home. When the sale of Kamm to the White Sox was nniiouip *-d.

The Tribe 7 to 5 victory over the Brew ers yesterday and the defeat of the Saints at Toledo enabled the ilendrlcksmeu to case back Into second place In the race j and once more they have only the slugging Millers ahead of them. Iu the wind up with the Milwaukee outfit today it was believed Harry Weaver would be sent to tbe mound. He was ready yesterday, but Claude Jonnard returned and asked to be assigned the job. •lonuard had gone to his Nashville home lust week because of the illness of his mother and the lack of work while absent affected his pitching skill yesterda- As a result Claude was wild and it was necessary for I’etty to relieve him In the eighth Inning.

WILLS STRIVES TO FORCE BOUT Colored Challenger for Jack’s Crown to Post Check With Commission. BY nENRT FARRELL. United Pres* Sporta Editor. NEW YORK, June 13.—Harry Wills, big negro heavyweight. Is going to challenge Jack Dempsey and send along some money to show he’s In earnest. Wills has reached the point where ring ethics, while they may hold him up as a model among fighters, do not feed tbe family. On the grounds that he did not want to annoy or embarrass the champion while he was making the acquaintance of royalty, Wills refrained from coming right out and demanding a fight for the title. Other things helped the big colored fellow maintain a strange silence when another boxer in his position would have been using the ,adio. Jack Kearns, according to the wise ones, promised YY’Hls a fight when they returned from Franca and then ran out when everything had been fixed for it. Seeing that he was the only one who believed in ethics, Wills now is going before the New York boxing commission nml announce that he is a challenger for the heavyweight title and will put up u certified check to show his sincerity.
