 AS MANAGER
Peerless Leader Signs With
 Farrell and is Awarded
 Plum of $120,OOO for Three Years Work; Twill Try to Earn It.
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHl

CHICAGO. Jan. 8.-The American league brought out it's heaviest bat talions today and captured Frank Chance, the Peerless Leader who signed to manage the New York club at salary and interest which amounts to $120,000 in three years, the greatest amount ever paid a baseball player.
 Of this sum s75.OOO is salary and the remainder the estimated value of five per cent of the net earnings
 of the club. Two days of negotiations
 between Chance and Frank Farrell
 owner of the New York club, were
 brought to a climax today when the
 principals quietly visited the office
 of B. B. Johnson, president of the
 league.
 There came an agreement after
 less than one hours conference and
 Chance signed
 'Gentlemen. let me introduce the
 new manager of the New York
 Americans" Farrell said to the re- porters as he and Manager Chance emerged from the conference. Both Farrell and Chance kept secret the actual details of their conference. Chance candidly admitted he had suffered a change of heart since his arrival in Chicago after the journey from the coast and said he had been offered terms which no one in his right mind would refuse.
 Honestly. I did not expect to sign" he said tonight When I came yes
 terday I fully had made up my mind my interests lay in the west and that I could not afford to leave them at least for a year. Farrell however
 made the inducements much better than I dreamed of and even eXclud- ing my love for the game, as factor I could not decline. I am not at liberty to give out the terms but say I am to get the greatest sum any
 body ever got for plotting a baseball club and I am going to come as near earning it as l can.
 The terms. learned from an author itative source, were announced of ficiaIly to include for Chance a con- tract to manage the club three years at S25,00O a year and five per cent of the clubs net earnings for three l seasons. The latter is believed to amount to $15,0O0 annually, perhaps more.
 Chance is assured of the active l management of the team on Febru ary II when he will reach New York to attend the American league meet l ing. He will arrange then the details for training trip.
 1 The New York club will have its
 spring work out in the Bermudas where Farrell has engaged cricket 1 field for diamond practice.
 1 Plans for Chance day in Chicago are already under way. The New | York team makes a visit to Comiskey park in May and the new manager will then be honored here. The American league leaders including President Johnson. c. A. ComiskeJ
 of the Chicago club and others open ly rejoiced at the acquisition of the peerless leader" Farrell will leave for New York tomorrow. Chance ex- poets to remain here until Saturday.
