AMPLE MATERIAL, HOWEVER Assembling of Players Will Be Comparatively Simple, It Is Said, Once Business of Transfer It Settled Bert Tooley Holds Out Newark, April 7 Though hut two members of last, year's battle array bine signed to date, the Newark Indiana have material enough lo start next week on the International schedule. Through the clonk of doubt and secrecy rays of enlightenment were sent to day by the Hlihets baseball firm, Indicating that once the ponding deal for the city's transfer Is settled one way or the other, the renl business of baseball, to wit, the or-ganitatlon of a team will be comparatively an easy task. Two announcements give the Indians a total of thirteen players, with over half of the number twlrlers. Pitcher Jeff Uoliiiqnlst and Outfielder lo Wlltcrstactler, H)4 Indians.

Brooklyn Overstocked. The Hrooklyn Dodgers are simply overstocked wltn alnli artists, indicating an un- loadlnir urocess upon the Indians. Tho nenr-blg ieosue twlrlers scheduled to make the transfer are Coombs, Hchinulta, ('adore, Chalieli and Goodbred.

t'ntcher Snow of tho lirnoUyn recruits also Is destined here. Mock Wheat, who failed to do anything' startling with ihe Indians last year, laml-ed a job with tiio loilers Iwcnuse of his display of life, thereby forcing Snow to the Internalhiiinls. Eddie Zimmerman, C'atluhau, Kraft, Mono, Tooley, llecliluger, Int. Mciiacat end Curtis the team -are still noiu outs. There will be tome tall hustling In-fore they are signed.

The HrouU l.ij er nieinlierj of the team have already had their spring training. As for tie- ot hers hen llie.v i-onie -they will be dished out training In wholesale quantities and manufactured nt home. With (he Kbets Interests retaining the ownership of the club, John Hummel will probably manage It and rly tlrst. The name of the pilot Is uncertain shnuhl tho club undergo a transfer. LOOKS TO HAVE THE GOODS WALTER KEATING.

Inflelder secured from the Chicago Cubs has all the earmarks of a good player. The fact that the Cubs carried him one full season show that he ia considered worth while. He might have remained with the Cubs as a utility player but for the fact that the National League has cut down to tweny-one players and Manager Bresnohan hud to use tho pruning knife. ttt Wi r'Sfvv4.

The transfer of the In-diaiinpolls franchise to Newark and the sale, of Bonnie Kaiiff to tbs Bronkfed do not give Bill Phillips a cocksure pennant winner for 1015, and before those deals had been recorded every other club had been strengthened.
