Dec. 21--News of the baseball scandal i today left the- fans dazed and wondering came as no surprise to certain- managers. Both J. McGraw, manager of tho New Giants. and liarncy Dreyfus, owner of the Pittsburgh Pirates 'knew there was "something In the air." but neither one of the men realized the seriousness or the scope of the affair.

McGraw declared today that he had intended trying to sign Cobb three weeks' ago. "I went first to Irfindls," Manager McGraw stated, "to ascertain or not Coi'b was free to do business with the Glanta. At a time the commissioner warned me not to do business i declarmpr that he had and sound reasons for the warning which he would divulge later." "It's a thins," McGraw added and "I'm still 'Jazod i tho news, When men liTte Speaker and Cobb nrc discredited In tho eyes of the fans, then baseball has indeed suf- fered a sorry blow." Barney Dreyfuss, manager of the I Pittsburgh Plrtitcs. like McGraw learned that there was something itnilsa a weeks UKO when he considered slgnlm? Tris Speaker as coach and utility i Dreyfuss went so far as to hold three conferences with Speaker, but when tho commissioner learned of tho pending deal he warned Dreyfuss to I i all negotiations. i He aid not give his reasons at the time, however, declaring that be had Informatoin i made such i a deal impossible.

Strange as it may seem, President Hvydler of the National league had no I a i of the at all--and was as surprised I as the, fans themselves, stories of the scandal sotpuni into his of flee. St. John's tsarn barely nosed out the Firat Baptist church combine, 53 to 51 In a sensational igamo vjrhlle First Presbyterian church five swamped the Olivets, 79 to 29 In the Church League games last night.
