.SEATON SQUABBLE
MAY DISRUPT FEDS
President Gilmore Permits ex,
Phillies' Pitcher TO Remain
With Chicago.
BROOKLYN OWNERS TALK

In the scramble for the services of
Tom Seaton, the Brooklyn Federal
League finds itself lined up against
the strongest influences in the new
baseball organization. President Gill
more, contrary to his reported prom
Use to the Brooklyn club that it could
have Seaton, has taken sides with
Joe Tinker and ordered Seaton to re-
main in Shreveport with the Chicago
team.
The Wards are highly incensed over
the turn which the Seaton case has
taken. Treasurer Walter Ward last
night said:
"Seaton is our property, and Gill
more, Weeghman and Tinker have nc
right to interfere with his reporting
20 the Brooklyn club. You can posi-
lively deny any reports coming from
Chicago or Shreveport that Seaton
will play with Chicago. He belongs
to us. and will play in Brooklyn"
If the Chicago crowd persists in en-
couraging Seaton to carry out his
own wishes about playing with Chit
cago, there is likely to be disruption
in the league ranks. The Wards have
taken the firm stand that Seaton must
play with Brooklyn. and Walter Ward
said they would not listen to any sort
of q proposition to sell or trade him
to another club. He is the most valu.
able player on the Brooklyn club. and
they cannot afford to lose him.
At this stage of the game the new
league cannot well antagonize the
backing OF the Wards, as their infiu-
ence may be needed to keep the
league on its feet after the season is
under way.

SETON HALL TEAM
MAKES FINE START
South Orange ColIegians De-
feat Mount st. Josephs in
Easy Fashion.
FISH PLAYS BRILLIANTLY

BALTIMORE, Md, March al
Seton Hall College defeated Mount
st. Joseph's colleeg yesterday after
noon II to in the first game of the
Setonians spring trip. The visitors
sewed the game up in the very first
inning, after two men were down
and none on the paths. Yates, who
started the game for the Josephites,
commenced his own downfall by pass
ing English, after Shaffrey grounded
cut and Shannon famed. Fish then
pol<ed n long single to centre and
English reached third. Both men
scored on Malone's error of Nugents
grcunder. Lutz then singled, putting
two on, and each advanced a base
or wild peg. Elwood was hit, fill
ing the bases. Yates forced Nugent
homo when he passed NJ. Shannon.
Linhard was called to the rescue,
but a bingle by Kerrigan sent over
two more tallies. Linhard then grew
wild and passed Schaffrey and j.
shannon, which forced another run
ner home. English grounded out, re-
firing the side. Linhard went back
in the second inning. but two singles
and a sacrifice sent him to the bench.
Southpaw Meadows was rushed to
the mound to do salvage duty, but
the work was done and the Sensational
pitching Of the big left-hander went
for naught. He stopped the Jersey
ties, though, and stopped them short,
Meadows famed thirteen men and
allowed only two singles.
Jack Fish, who caught for Seton
Hall, was easily the star for the Wis
itors. He caught brilliant game,
made several difficult catches and
hanged the ball when most needed.
