STORY ill illllll-lllll

‘Bennie Kalil! gives his own story of
his holdout with the New York
.ianls.
"When the Federal League went car
of existence," Kan! says, "the Giants
again made a strong effort to get me.
i went to the office with John McGraw
‘and talked things over with Mr.
‘llempstead. l agreed to sign a con-
tract with the Giants at the terms
they odored, which weres atisfactory
to me. And again I fulfilled my part
of the contract in fixing my signature
to a contract for which they had
agreed to pay me. 35.0w.
“i told them that I wanted to hate
a chance to see Mr. Sinclair, to see if
. i could not get a part of the purchase
.mont')‘. This was a not uncommon
arrangement among ball players.
t-Yaiik Baker wanted 810.000 of the
purchase price from (‘ounle Hack be-
fore he would sign with the Yankees.
Sinclair received for me, so 1 under-
stand. 335,000. The amount may have
been overstated, but it wait a fortune.
at any rate. it seemed to me no more
than fair that i should get a part of
:this huge purchase price. I had my
mum set on 35,000 as a reasonable
! figune
i “No doubt i will be criticised as a
money-grabber, but, believe me. a ball
tplayer has only few chances to grab
any money. No one criticised John Ev-
‘el’s when its got 325.000 as a bonus

demands. considering the great
{amount of money that Sinclair was
getting for me? He its a man man)!
ittmea a millionaire. die had more
'money in any one of a doaen banks,
Ino doubt, than i will over have.
i "i knew enough to know that with
itho passing of the Federal Home the
days of the big money were largely
over and that I probably would never
