GATES FIGURES THAT FEDERALS
 ARE SURE ID WIN
Federal League Counsel of the Opinion That Outlaws Will Come Out Winner
 in the Injunction Suit

Chicago, April 2.-The Federal league stands to win, no matter what the out come of it's suit to enjoin William Kiliser from playing with the Philadelphia Ma tionals, according to E. E.. Gates, the leagues counsel
 If the United States court at Grand Rapids, after hearing on Saturday, grants the Federal league it's injunction, the outlaw organization counts on having killifer, Banding, Gardner and Williams forced to live up to the Federal con tracts they are said to have signed.
 If the court refuses to grant the in- Junction, thus denying the binding power of the contract Killifer signed with the F'ederals. Gates holds that the contracts of organized baseball would be considered equally useless, so that dissatisfied play CTS could jump from organized baseball to the Federals without regard to con tracts.
 As there are dozens of first rate players in the American and National leagues, said to be held to their clubs only through fear that the courts would enforce con tracts, Gates figures that the Federal league would be winner in the genera raid.
 Gates President Gilmore and Charles Weeghman of the Chicago club will go to Grand Rapids.

BARONS SHUTOUT IN
 HARD FOUGHT GAME BY ROCHESTER TEAM
NINTH INNING RALLY
 WINS FOR HUSTLERS
Rochester Eaters Fall On Fittery in Final Bat Out Vctory-Johnson Almost Invncible
 Knsely Walops Ball Hard

Anniston, April 2.-tSpecial)-An unex- pected batting rally in the final part of the ninth inning gave the Rochester team of the International league victory over the Birmingham Barons here this after noon in the first exhibition game of the spring. The score was l to o
 McMillan, first up for Rochester in the latter part of the ninth, singled and ad- vanced to the three-quarter post on an- other bingle by Brien. Fittery, who was on the mound for the Barons during the last four innings of the game pulled himself together at this juneture and re- tired two hatters in succession. How ever, he becaume too anxious to retire Schultz for the third out and the Hustler third baseman slapped out the third nit of the inning. McMillan scoring with the winning tally
 The Barons worked in fine form and made strong showings, both at the bat and in the field. Johnson, who was on the hill for the first five innings held the Rochester team on his hip and only one hit was registered off him.
 The first base and catching positions on the Rochester team made vacant by the Federal raid, were acceptably filled by Courtney and Williams.
 knisely was the only Baron who did not seem to have any trouble in fathom- ing the deliveries off IIoff and Hughes.

ALABAMA TURNS
 TABLES ON PREPS

Tuscaloosa, April 2.-(Special.)-A bama turned the tables on Mississippi college today. and won easily, 10 to 1. Graves made several changes in his line up which worked well The students as well as the team, were out for a victory, and they got it. Long before the game the bleachers were filled with "rooters. Mississippi did not have another Brooks, although Langston had a fair assortment. Hits were secured at the timely mo- ments, and this, aided by errors made things easy for the locals. Sewall car ried off the batting honors, but Cargile was the speed boy. He reached first four times, each time stealing second and once third.
 Stevenson was very effective and held the Mississippians to three scattered hits. Wells caught a beautiful game, gather ing difficult fouls and doing some eX- cellent begging. The Alabama boys looked like a different team from today and it seems IS if Wednesday was really an off day. Score:

 Dame Fortune turned cold shoul- der to the Barons yesterday and deign- ed smile on Johnny Ganzel and his aggregation of Hustlers. Although the BaronsA played on par with the International league team they were unable to gain any advantage and were nosed out in the final part of the ninth inning when McMillan. the wee shortstop of the Rochester team, after getting on base with hit, came home with the first and only run of the game when the teammates de- veloped batting rally and touched Southpaw Fttery for three hits
 The Barons played in fine form. only one error being made throughout the entire contest. Johnson worked on the firing line during the first five innings and he held the Hutslers helpless, al- lowing only one scratch hit.
 old Pete Knlsely carried his batting eye along to Anniston- witle him and the Rochester fingers did not worry him much. Of the four hits amassed by Moley's contingent, two were from his trusty bludgeon.

A NY player who thinks that he can A shirk from participating in a A spring series without asking per mission from his manager or can go on strike unless he Is allowed to share in the gate receipts of the same. is a sadlN misinformed person. And should he attempt to- do either he would suffer a rude awakening Some players are not cognizant of the fact that in their contract is wee little clause which forces the signer to do the bidding of the club owners. Nevor- theless the clause is there. and it pro- vides that a club may plaster a fine of at least slOd on a player if he is dilatory ih reporting for spring games
 
 The st. Louis Cardinals and Browns recently found this out to their ehagrin. Disappointed over not being allowed To share in the receipts of their spring series, the players of both teams threatened to go on a strike after playing the first game of the series and not finish out the series, hui tnt bthiScItlls were lhlolHltu by the presidents of the two st. Louis clubs of the clause in their contracts forcing them to play during the spring without extra compensation or become liable to fines, and the players capltu- lated. Needless to say-the spring series in St. Louis will be concluded without the players sharing In the proceeds.

 Defeated, but not discouraged the bold Barons. accompanied by the 15 Rochester players. under the leader ship of John Ganzel. returned to the city late last night with the determina- ton of reversing the tables on the Hustlers in the two game series which opens at Redwood this afternoon.
 The players were all in high spirits and regarded yesterdays defeat as a small factor as it was through their own carelessness that Rochester was allowed to escape with victory.
 The Rochester party was composed of McAIillan. shortstop: Schultz, third base; Courtney, first base Breen. sec ond base; Priest, right field; Smith left field; Barrows. center field; Williams and Hughes, catchers; Hoff, Moves Ackers, Martin and Keith, pitchers, and Manager Ganzel
 Moley will likely use Gregory and Hardgrove on the mound this after noon, while Ganzel will usher out on the firing line Ackers and Keith
 Although the Hustlers are in rath- . CT depleted condition. owing to the ef- fectiveness of the Federal leagues raid, Manager Ganzel is optimistic over pros poets and hopes to put out a strong team.
 Two of the most glaring holes on his team are at first base and behind the bat. However, the showing made yesterday by Courtney at the initial bag and Williams behind the bat has dispelled gloom from the Rochester camp and Ganzel is now counting on them as regulars
 Despite the recent bad weather Redwood Field is now in fairly good shape to play on and the players should get around quickly this after noon.
 The game will begin at o'clock. with Burke umpiring.
