er Miller. who played on the Yankees
-wlth indifferent success for several
" years. is in great demand. Miller
played with St. Paul in the American
Assodation last season, and several
major league clubs are bidding for
him. The Cincinnati world's diam-
plans have made a 810,000 oifer for
Miller. Last spring they could have
pic‘red him up for the waiver price.
-Millerlonghaabeenknownas the
,. Ty Cobb of the minors. His case is
one of the most Interesting ever to
come up in baseball. Miller affords
striking enbiect for students of base-
ball and psychology. He can stand
any minor leazue on his head. but
with the Yankees he usually acts as
though he was in a trance.

for from Mobile. in the Southern Asv
sociatlon. He was battimr champion
of that league and its all- round star.
When he reported to the Yanks that
fall he couldn‘t knock a ball out of
the infield. Before going to Mobile
Nations.
Leena.
The Yankees fanned Miller to the
Baltimore international in 1916. He
was as his a star there as he had
been in Mobile. In Baltimore they
said he was the greatest outfielder
who played there since Ned Hanlon's
Oriole National Deane champions oi
1894. 1895, and 1896. Enter was
called by the Yankees in rnidmmmer
of that year. and though he hit close
to .100 in the international. he hii
only half of that in the Amencan.
Miller showed some improvement in
1911, but in midseaaon of 1918 he quit
the Yanks to play with a. Steel League
team. Perhaps that piqued Higgins,
because he let Miller go to St. Paul
after taking him in the 1919 training
trip.
The move really was a. bad one, and
Colonel Huston. one of the Yankee
owners. now admits it. Discusmng
Miller onlv yesterday. Huston said
fin.
' the dub quickly realized it had made
a mistake in letting Elmer go.
Despite the fact that Miller novel
approached his minor league batting
form with 'the Yankees. he was a lin-
ished outfielder and wild cover acres
of territory. “’hen it is recalled that
the club later had to pick up such a
bustier ae’Wickland-to act. as utility
outfielder. the mistake in releasing
Miller is self-evident.
Miller went so strong in the asso-
ciation last season that he has been:
sought. by several clubs all winter. .11.»:
was a big factor in St. Paul winning}
the American Association pennant. He
hit 1311 and scored 116 runs.
St. Paul has refused Cincinnati's of-
fer for $10,000 for Miller, perhaps. ang
ling for a still higher bid. Miller
, would have ll great chance with th e
Rodi. as the club was very short on
outlelders lust smuon. Pat Duncan
procured from Birmingham, was pur-
chased in late August, lost in time to
be eligible for the world's series.
