man of the club and several others
were filed to show that Killifer's serv-
ices were of value TO the Chicago Fed
erals
1t was brought out that the ten-day
clause was eliminated from killifer's 5
contract and the reserve clause broad
ly amended subsequent TO his signing
the 1914 National League contract The
complainants cited this as an evidence
of error in the original form of con-
tract. They also charged that owing
to a reorganization and reincorpora-
tion of the Philadelphia National club
the corporation now seeking to retain
Killifer's services under the 1913 con-
tract reserve clause is not the same
company which was one of the parties
of the original contract.

q score Of to 3.
Russell experienced no difficulty In mold

The Sox pinched thirteen hits on Ap-
pleton, a right handler, and Mears,
southpaw.
Manager Callahan made a signihcant
switch in his outfield. moving Bodie over
to left and Collins to center, and leaving
right field to Daily. The reason Tor the
move is to take full advantage OF Colins
speed. He is the fastest man OF the
Available outfelders, and can go a long

The leading New York case on the

the present business manager of the
Brooklyn Federal League club and a sue
cessful New York attorney.
The New York ball club attempted by
preliminary injunction to restrain Ward
from playing with one of the Brotherhood
teams during the war of 1890 The re-
serve clause of Wards contract was
stronger than the one of TO-DAY. as il
provided that the salary for the succeed
ing year should not be less than S3.Hy,
Whiie the present one provides no mini
mum whatsoever leaving the matter en-
urely with the owners.
Terms Too Indefinite.
The court. however. refused to grant
the injunction for the reason, among
others, that the terms were too indefinite.
1t said: That a court of equity will not
make contract which the parties them
selves have not made, and that it will
not enforce an indefinite one, are ele-
mentary propositions that need no cita-
tion of authorities to support them
In the case of the Philadelphia ball
club against Lajoie, Pennsylvania ease,
which is looked upon uphoidiug the
reserve clause, the contract provided tina,
the salary under the renewals should be
the same, thus doing away with the oc-
lection of want of definiteness. 1t also
provided that it could be renewed for
period of three years, thus avoiding, to
a slight extent at least, the objection OF
want of mutually now raised against
the present contracts which have no
limitation to the renewal period.
1T can readily be seen. therefore. that
this case can be of little value in up
