Text	[from Joe Pritchard's column][from an interview of Von der Ahe] “St. Louis did not apply for admission to the Brotherhood ranks,” said Mr. Von der Ahe. “I went to New York simply to see what the outlook was, and I am well satisfied with my trip. I learned a great deal about the Brotherhood while I was in Gotham. It looks to me as if there were too many bosses at times, while at other times there were no bosses at all, and then the players are easily frightened and they can stand but very few more desertions before there will be a general stampede. I looked the ground over carefully and for the life of me I don't see where the new organization is going to make any money.
