preaching when the Federal League
will have 10 play ball on the field in
stead of on paper. To bridge the
gap, kilograms to Christy Mathewson
mean at least couple of days during
which the fan will still be drawn
from the tales Of woe and suffering
in the training camps and the
thoughts of real baseball.
One deal for the Chicago Cubs IS
said to have fallen through and Louis
J. Behan, an attorney, is on his way
back home after seeing Charles T..
Taft. Truly Warner, a New York
halter. announced today, however
that he wanted TO buy the club, so
there is still some hope. All that is
necessary to get into this great little
scramble is the price OF a telegram,
or TO have a voice. OF course, your Of
fer may not be accepted, but you viii
be among those mentioned at least.
The Federal League telegram to
Mathewson was the result of joke.
A reporter here suggested 10 Gilmore
that he had made offers to about
everybody in organized baseball ex-
cept Matty. II was then believed

vestigation disclosed President Hemp
stead had merely mailed Matty a
blank contract with instructions to
fill II in at his own figures. The
contract has not yet been returned.
Gilmore is not overlooking any bets
and he wired Matty. Before leaving

Federals said he had received no re-

Yes. Just like could persuade John
u. Rockefeller to pay his Sl2,OO0,OeO

on to what they have, and there
would be fine time getting players
for a new league
Connie Mack had Walsh. center
fielder for the Athletics during the
last worlds series, buried for two OF
three years. Walsh was then a star
but Mack had men of such high cali
bre there was no place for Welsh
but on the bench. He played every
position on the team at one time or
another while waiting around for
some veteran TO crack and make a
place for him. Those men who are
doing time on the bench are inexperi-
enced and need training, It is true,
but whenever a greater demand TOT
star players develops they will be-
gin coming to the top If the Fed
eral League cuts In and is able TO
grab OF some of the star minor
league players the two big leagues
may be forced to pull out some OF
their bench warmers a little sooner.
Because stars are scarce now Is no
reason for believing they Will con-
tinue to be. II IS natural TO sup
pose that the more baseball there
IS to be played the more players there
/ will be developed and the percentage
I Of stars will increase in proper

The Federal League Is IN a posi-
tion TO wreck the minor leagues of
the country II 1t cares TO, in the
opinion Of Joe Tinker. He has point
ed out that where the major leagues

have taken care of that by turning
the big money TO the player In th'
form of salary instead of handing 4

in minor league ball comes from th'
sale OF players these interests arr

Federal League was just beginning to
brcal, into print and disturb the peace
of mind of organized baseball, one Of the
chief stocks in the trade of arguing
against the possibiiav of the league
being able to live was the statement oi
big baseball officials that there was not
room for n third league. There was no
place for another organization. IL was
declared and therefore the federals
could not exist As q result of the re-

ganized baseball itself has been consid-
eriun for the past two or three years
the establishment of a third major
leaoue circuit. Also that one of the
war plans" considered in the early
days was the placing of third league
in the field to combat the Federals. All
Of which indicates anything that one
may wish to take it as Indicating.

Shooting Wire Troubles

power lines out of commission A 3d.

the stricken district, and while no
damage was done TO the circuit itself,
the company had to suspend opera %
tons, owing to the great amount Of
Ice on the insulators and cross arms,
and to the falling of trees across
wires.
A novel method WAS finally re-
sorted TO in clearing the line of the
ice-laden limbs which dropped into
contact with the wires between poles.
These limbs We're ordinarily out of
the way of the wires except when
bent down under the load of sleet,
and their position on tho trees was
such that it was practically impos-
sible to get at them 10 cut them off.
Some one finally suggested trying a
shotgun and this proved entirely
satisfactory in clearing the line of
these ice-coated limbs.
About 800 shells were used alto
gether IN clearing UP 20 miles of line.
In no case we're more than two shots

it TO the ground, and in some instan-
ces one good shot so dslodged the ice
as to allow the limb to return to its
