Roger Bresnahan has 27 players from whom to select the 1909 St. Louis team. He has five backstops. Including himself; 10 pitchers, eight Inflelders and four outfielders. If he hasn't got quality among his men he certainly has quantity.

Roger probably will play the outfield, for he has two good backstops in Bliss and Moran. If Stanley Robison only refrains from trying to act as assistant manager and allows him a free hand, Roger may accomplish. something with the Cardinals in a. year or two. The newspapers throughout the New York State League circuit have lately been indulging in the harmless pasUme of picking the best team from all the players in that organization, and with remarkable unanimity they all select Eagan, of the Utlca club, as their ilrst choice for catcher.

According to ih, ooost tnese writers are giving Eagan. tne young catcner drafted by the Ath letlcs must be tho real stuff, both as a backstop ana as a batsman.

REVIEW OF ALL SPORTS A "Snap" to Snap Up Qtm DORANDO AGAIN BEATEN LONGBOAT TAKES MEASURE OF ITALIAN MAKITHON RUNNER A SECOND TIME.

In Buffalo, on Saturday night, Tom Longboat, the Canadian, for th second time took the measure of Dorando Pie tri, the Italian. Time and again he sprinted in an effort to get away from the Indian, but without success. The end came with startling suddenness in the sixth lap of tho 19th mile. The pair started off at a terrific pace with the crack of the pistol, the first mile being covered In 5.07, or 7 2 5 seconds faster than the time made in the first mile of their race at Madison Square Garden on December 15. This grueling race was moderated somewhat after the second mile, but Dorando's frequent sprints kept the time well above the mark set in New York.

Longboat never faltered. Every time Dorando tried to secure a commanding lead the Indian lengthened his stride and overtook the Italian before he had gone a lap. An exciting incident occurred in the third mile. Longboat, trailing behind his opponent, stumbled at the first turn and went sprawling on the track. His leg struck the timbered side of the bank, drawing blood.

Tho Indian sprang to his feet like a flash and recovered the lost ground before the lap was completed. After Dorando stopped Longboat slowed down and covered the remain ing six miles in a walk. FODDER FOR THE FANS. Tom Daly, the former crack second baseman. Is slated to become Brooklyn's scout.

McGraw says he considers F. Regel Herzog another Arthur Huffman, and that they must bid high to get him. St. Paul has traded "Pete" No man the former catcher of tho Athletics, to San Francisco in exchange Cor "Truck' Egan. Noonan Is to go to work as a first baseman.

Christy Methewson will cease his pernicious activities in insurance circles about January 15, when he goes to Boston to gut an early start on tha Harvard baseball candidates. Hatty's tank will be coaching the pitcbars. He will go South with McGarw's veterans late in February. George Schloi, interviewed in Cincinnati, says ho is glad to become a Giant. This is a nice, polite way of stating that he is happy to leave Cincinnati.

In order to let Albert perform for the home folks McGraw lias booked the second team of his Southern squad for a gama at Portsmouth, on the way north. The fact that McAlester, is not on the route list is a hint that Joe MeGinnlty will not be witli New York nexc spring. If McGraw insists upon claying Herzog in the outfield the chances of the Boston team getting the utility man. win uwindle rapiuiy. The Bost'n Americans open the season in Philadelphia, and tha jump trom Baltimore, where they play on tha lath April, w.ll be an easy one.

Wonder how ha Billy Gilbert v. i'l work under Roger Bresnahan? Billy bad his heart set on the sanio man agcrial job. Reger Bresnahan has. had his first taste of being a real nvc manager. He met Stanley Robison, owner of the Car dinals, out in Cleveland, and Stanley turned over the rains cf government to the ex Giant.

According to Mr. Robi son. Roger can go as far as he likes with tho team, which is quite a conces sion, as under the MeCloskey regime the St. Louis president usually went so far as to pick the pitchers himself every afternoon. Rugs Raymond has decided to make his home in New York this winter.

He made up his mind on this point two minutes after hearing that there was a oar attached to McGraw billiard room, where any Giant player could sign tabs against his prospective salary account.
