Itauh’, star fence buster of the FM-
erul league and sometimes referred to
as the Ty Cobb of the outlaw organi~
cation, started proceedings yesterday
to tecover the $5,000 bonus promised
him by the. New York Giants when
Ilk‘ made his famous leap from Wash
iugton park to the Polo Grounds
liaui't’ threatens to expose all kinds of
inside workings of the baseball pow
ers if the case is brought to court,
and has engaged’ John M. Ward to
fight the matter out for him. V "
it seems that the morning Benny
agreed to jump to the Giants he was
promised a bonus of $5,000. .At least.
'fhat is what Benny claims. And he
declares that he has it in black and
white. too.
We will give you $5. 000 if you
will sign this contract," Hempst'ead
and McGraw are alleged to have told
Benny “signed them
papers" Then he asked for 55, 000,
but he didn‘t get it. ' .
