Address EDWARD R. SWETT, Mgr. MUSKEGON, MICH, pitcher's services and the reports of offers ranging from $10,000 to $20,000 for the battery composed of O'Toole and Kelly, added to the enthusiasm of Scout MuTra-jr oyer O'Toole's work, prompted Dreyfus to come to St. Paul and see for himself. He took one look at O'Toole and then announced that he would, on the following day, hold a session with Owner Lennon and Manager Kelly of the St.

Paul club to make them an offer. His offer came and was accepted and today Owner Lennon of the local club is $22,500 richer in cash and $2,500 in baseball material for OToole's value was placed at $25,000 by President Dreyfus, who offered the cash price mentioned, and a pitcher worth Highest Price. The price paid for O'Toole is more than was ever paid for a player before, the former high figure being $12,000 paid by the Athletics to Baltimore for Lefty Russell. Among other players for whom large prices were paid is Pitcher "Rube" Marquard cf the New York club of the National league. The Indianapolis club of the American association was given $11,000 for his release.

The Chicago" American league paid Providence a reported price of for Russell B. Blackburne, a shortstop. Bresnahan of St. Louis started the bidding by offering about $15,000 for O'Toole, and Kelly, his catcher. Cleveland and Chicago were both attracted by the showing of the youngster, and the bidding started.

The price lifted a thousand at a time until George E. Lennon. of the St. Paul club named $25,000 as his price for OToole alone. This caused a dropping cf alL efforts to get the pitcher by everyone except Dreyfus and Cantillon, representing the Chicago Americans.

Cantillon offered $20,000 as a final bid, the. limit set by the Chicago magnate. After some haggling, Dreyfus "Split the difference" and proffered Lennon a check for $22,500. After Fome parley this was accepted. O'Toole was summoned and announced himself as satisfied to go to Pittsburg, but said he would like to have Kelly go with him.

D.reyfus is said to have, offered $5,000 for Kelly but Lennon is desirous of realizing at least $7,500 for him.
