GARRY HERRMANN HAS
HORACE FOGEL'S GOAT
PITTSBURG. Aug. , 20.—President
Horace Fogel, of the Phillies, is minus
a goat because Garry Herrmann, Cin
cinnati owner, has been talking of get
ting Otto Knabe in a trade. Fogel says:
”1 wrote to Herrmann and told him
to keep off my team, and if he has
any deals to make to arrange them
with me and not try to have a couple
of Cincinnati newspaper men do the
dealing. Herrmann broke up Chicago
last summer by sending out reports that
he was going to get ’either Evers or
Tinker. Both players are ambitious and
each expected to land as manager of
the Reds. The result is both shirked
after being disappointed.
“Now the false reports are going out
about Knabe. I don't think it will af
fect his playing, but you never can tell.
At the league meeting last winter there
was a long discussion of this very thing,
and it was made very plain that these
false statements of offers for certain
players work injury to the team and to
the whole league. There is nothing in
this talk about Herrmann getting
Knabe."

That the signing of articles between
