OPENING OF FEDERAL LEAGUE.

Pittsburg, Pa, May 6.--Whether it
is possible for a professional base
ball organization of any consequence
to exist outside the fold of the ma
tional agreement will be determined
by the success or failure of the new
Federal league, which is scheduled to
play the opening games in it's initial
pennant race today. On paper the
league appears to be the most sub
stantial of any of the so-called. out
law organizations that have sprung
up in recent years. The circuit is
made up Of six of the best cities of
the middle West, all of which now
have clubs in the major leagues. They
are Chicago, st. Louis, Pittsburg, In
Cleveland and Covington
the last named being for all practical
purposes a Cincinnati team. A SEIZED
ule of 100 games for the season has
been adopted by the league, and it
is said that all of the six cities have
posted a $4,000 guarantee to carry
out the full schedule of games.
