SCHEME
TO GUST FEDS
Organized Ball Plans to
Plant A.A. and 1nternation-
al Clubs as Busters.

New York. Jan. 3O.-Outwardly
calm and vocally unperturbed, organ
lied baseball has not been as disdain-
full of the advances Of the Federal
league as the clubowners in the Ma
tional and American leagues have evi-
IDENTIFY agreed to appear. 1t has been
learned-without the aid of a dicta-
graph-that arrangements have virtu-
ally been completed to plant" Inter
national league and American associa:
ton teams in the various cities. in
cluded in the two major league cir
cults which at present support but
one club.
In this way the men behind organ
lied baseball feel reasonably certain
that they will make the breaking-in
task of the eFederals so hard and 80
EXPENSIVE that the new Organization
will be forced to pull down its colors
and pass out Of existence.
Planned in Secret.
1T Is said that the cfubowners Of the
American, National and International
leagues and the American association
evolved an elaborate scheme for OPP
posing the invasion by; the Federals
just as soon as. organized baseball Is
convinced that the e league will. not
encounter financial difficulties that
will interfere WITH IT'S becoming any
kind Of a strong opposing. factor.
What these arrangements are could
not b~e.deinitely learned. It is easy to
surmise, however, that franchises OF
the poorest teams of the two class IA
leagues will be transferred to such
cities as Brooklyn, Cincinnati and
Pittsburg and any other major league
cities boasting, but one team that may
be invaded. by the Federals.
1t had been generally understood
that some such nye has been. afoot
for sone time. Men.in authority have
1t has now been learned in an indi-
rect way that the campaign of oppo-
sition had progressed as far as it is
now reported to have done. It was
not even known that the matter had
been formally discussed, but nov It
appears that the arrangements have
been carried on by mail.
Organized Ball Impressed.
Evidently the high-handed manner
of the Federals has impressed organ
lied baseball a great deal more than
it Is willing to admit. Apparently
those. within the fold" are beginning
good portion Of the money they have
said they have behind them.
That organized baseball would not
stand quietly by and see It's precincts
entered without a fight. was a fore
gone conclusion. If this arrangement
is carried out it win be a severe blow
to the Federals, for the quality of
baseball played In the American as
ISOLATION and the International league
is but little below that maintained in
the major leagues. It Is virtually the
same thing, and unless the new league
can do a great deal better than It has
done thus far in signing big league

had returned an answer to tho note Of
the Niagara Falls mediators stating
that he would appoint representatives
to the conference at Niagara Falls.
The names of the representatives

simply the assurance that the consti-

did not mention conditions on which
the consututionalists would take part.
1t was announced. however, that the
agreement to attend the conferences
would not servo to check the campaign
now being waged against the federals
in any respect and the advances to
the south will be continued with vigor.
The federals attempted yesterday to
escape from Mazatlan through tho

bitterness among democratic sena-
tors over the repeal bill flared up
again tonight, and before oil was
poured on the troubled waters, Sena-
tor Vardaman, Of Mississippi. and
Senator West or Georgia almost came
oblows. Apparently only the inter
ference OF Senator Asnurst and the
presence of the sergeant at arms pre-
vented physical encounter.
The trouble lasted less than Il min
ute. but in that time the senate was
intensely excited and displayed an in
terest in things such as has not been
evident for weeks
The trouble started after bitter
exchange between Senator Vardanan
and Senator James. who had vigor-
ously criticised the Mississippi senator
not stating the truth.
When Senator Vardaman sat down,
Senator West took the floor and also
entered a protest against the recent
charge OF Senator Vardaman that
those who voted for the repeal were
guilty Of treachery TO the democratic
party. He referred to the charge
that the Carnegie Foundation had ex-
pended $4,000 to boost the repeal bill
WHO knows" added the Georgia
senator. but what the shipping inter-
ests have spent 100000 to defeat this
bill?"

Senator West, shaking his head and
lifting his arms.

advancing with his arms half raised,
"you are making an intimation that
somebody else has been infleuced."
BY this time the two senators were
only few feet apart. but Senator
.Ashurst. one of the biggest men In
the senate, had stepped between them.
He laid his left arm across Senator
Vardaman's chest and extended his
right toward the Georgian. and tried
to pacify them. but they kept talking.
In the meantime, members in the
