Text	The little office at Sportsman's Park was the scene of a couple of heated interviews yesterday in which the boss president and his “hold-out” players were the principals. Tommy McCarthy put in an appearance yesterday morning and submitted his figures. The boss president gasped for breath when his eye rested on them. Then and there ensued a sulphurous dialogue, which terminated by the withdrawal of McCarthy. Silver King then tried his hand and said he was willing to pitch this season for $3,500, or $600 a month or $150 a week, which equals $50 a game. The boss president looked as if he needed stimulants when King finished. He said he was thinking of offering the big pitcher $2500, but would not cut down on that figure. After the séance he issued an order barring the “hold-outs” from the park. Robinson, Devlin, King, Chamberlin and McCarthy have not signed. St.
