Pres. of Philadelphia Nationals Spqaks of the “Invisible In- fluence.”

PHILADELPHIA, May 15. --A statement which will be heard around the baseball world and probably will divide the National League into LWQCBIIIDI came from William F‘. Baker, President of the Phiiad lphla National League Club onday.‘

Jun-Baker was moved to make his grave utterance by an article printed in a Philadelphia newspap- er under the signature of John J. McGra-w, in which the Phillie; as a baseball team were given. an infer- ior rvatlng, for ability and perform ' ance. -. -

Mr. Baker refers definitely to an “invisible influence" which he in- fers, deterred "Irish" Meusel and Casey ' Stengel from giving the Plriilles their best efforts. The‘. inference is that these players did] not play at their best for the local; club in order that their sale to the; |New York Club would be hastened. i

Iclimb to fame has been through his unlimited resources andthat his path has been paved with gold. Mr. Baker asks: “Who can tell if hi; criticism‘ (McGraw's) should create discontent among two or three of our. players with the thought on his part that anotherl shaking of the golden tree might r-ntisi-"one nr two of them to fall into his lap."
