There is a great deal of nonsensical twaddle uttered by ill informed base ball reporters about players being bought and sold. If these gentlemen would trouble themselves to examine the rules bearing on the subject they would discover that no player can be transferred, no matter what the consideration, without his own free will and consent. Buying a release from contract is a legitimate transaction and of frequent occurrence in theatrical and business affairs.
