Gus towns to sign his players who are

Ii was thought he came here to have a
secret conference with Manager Tinker
OF the Chicago Federals. but Tinker de-
clared he had no knowledge that Ebbets
was here, and that he had no appoint
ment with him. The Federal League
manager thought a joke was being per-
petrated on him when told the Brook
lyn magnate was here.
Il will say this said Tinker. that I
win not go to Brooklyn if Ebbets puts

Cities to Be Dropped.

Neither Buffalo nor Toronto will be in
the final makeup of the league. Federal
officials understand well enough that
these towns will not support two ball
teams, and for many other reasons both
are not desirable in permanent circuit.
AS foil, however, they will do as well
as any other cities.
Remember this prophecy: In 1918 New

Obstacles Overcome.

For some time it was believed that the
New York promoters would be able to
open the season of 1914 with q modern
park and frst-class team. Negotiations,
however. progressed slowly, due to the
antagonism of the American and Ma
tional League officials who blocked the
efforts of Ward and Muckenfuss at sew
erai turns. All obstacles. however, have
been finally overcome. and it is now said
that Greater New York will have Fed
eral franchise in 1915.
The F'ederals are planning their circuit
much the same as the American League
did when they broke into the big show"
said our informant.
The officials of the baby organization
are planning ahead secretly as they must
do so to outwit the American and Ma
tional League forces. Since the Greater
New York invasion was planned by the
Federal officials they have been check

According to the Outlaw
Program.

BALTIMORE, February 6.-UnIess the
plans of the Federal League masnates 90
awry. the baby circuit will take in
Greater New York in 1915. This intel
ligence was CLEANED yesterday from
professional man close to the powers that
be in the Federal League. According to
the same authority. the men selected to
establish the new venture are no other
than John N. Ward the former famous
shortstop of the New York Giants, and
Il. S. Muckenfuss, former secretary of the
famous old st. Louis Browns when Chris
Won der Abe was one Of the luminaries in
the base ball world.
Ward and AIuckenfuss are both said to
have been busy for the past severa! weeks
arranging to place the stock to finance
the Greater New York team. At this
writing it is understood that over S22o.Wn
worth of the shares have been subscribed
for and that options on two different To-

Carey in Badly.

Here's how Max Carey got into the "in
badly club: Long before he signed 4
Pittsburgh contract he WAS approached
by the independents and asked for terms.
Max replied in a lengthy epistle setting
forth i'll detail how much coin he would
make if the Pirates Won the pennant. and
also Gwelt on the extra kalc he would
gather in exhibition games and fro.n
other sources. In this way he thought ne
persuaded the independents that he was
Worth $4,000 a year. and said he was
willing TO hook UP with the third leaguers
for that salary if given a three-year CON
tract and something like $1,000 in ad-
vance money
The independents We're not quite i'm
pressed with the mssive as Carey had
hoped, but they offered him $3.50 sea-
son for three years. also 5000 advance
money Later they agreed to give Max
4 seasons salary in advance.
Max Indignantly rejected this offer and
nothing was heard from him until it was
learned that he had signed with the Pi
~ates. His salary. so it was reported. was
5000 a year.
So when things break badly for Max
and he is released he need not look to the
Feds to save him from drop into the
bushes.
