Phone 138 ST. JOSEPH CLUB WILL BE MOVED TO ANOTHER TOWN OWNER HANL0N SAYS MISSOURI CITY WON'T SUPPORT A BALL TEAM: RUMORED THAT LIN COLN GETS FRANCHISE.. St. Joseph. March 25. St. Joseph will not have a Western league base ball club this year unless some other team than Edward J. Hanlon's is located here. Hanlon was in town today in conference with his attorney, G. L, Zwick, and said that arrangements had been virtually completed, for the transfer of his team. He declined to .ay where the team is going, but the inference was that Lincoln had lauded it. The Hanoln players have been ordered to assemble in St. Joseph April S for spring training at League Park and will remain here uniil the opening of the season. Hanlon said that the park in the city to which be will remove, will not be ready until early in May. Cozy Dolan. manager of the team is now in Excelsior Springs, and will remain there until next week when he will come to St. Joseph Charley Hunter, business manager of thq club, will come here soon to look after the training details. It is possible that several exhibi tion games will be played bere be lore the team leaves, although dates are not certain. One major league team canceled two games with the Hanlon aggregation, because they considered the situation in St. Jos eph beyond recovery. Hanlon has alreauy signed up most of his players, he said today Those whose nanus are attached to coutracts are: Bluejacket. Muller,' Brubaker Watson. Kirkham. Bachant, Mc Laughlin. Luschen. Braunigan, Kir by. Rose and several new men whose names Hanlon refused to di vulge at present. While Lincoln men will have money interested in the team, Han lon will retain t he greater part of the stock and will continue to be the main guy. He said this morn ing regarding the St. Joseph con dition: "There has been no attempt made here to display any willingness to support a team this season, and I am unwilling to finance an adver tising and civic proposition for St. Joseph only. I will not keep the club here, and couldn't if I wanted to now. I believe base ball will come back in St. Joseph, but it will be a long time coming ' now. St. Joseph has established a reputation for non-support and unwillingness o help either Holland or myself when help was needed, and a big guarantee will be demanded before anybody else will take any chance here." 160 -ACRE FARM FOR SALE!
