BlandiAg's Return to Cleveland
Broke GentIemen's Pact.
Gilmore win Test Contracts in
COurt-Umpires Meet.

Chicago, March THE greatest war
of baseball history was threatened by
President Gilmore, of the Federal
League, as the result Of reports that
the National and American Leagues
| were PROSECUTING among the FEEDER
ais players. News that Pitcher Bland
ing had rejoined the Cleveland Ameri-
cans after having signed Federal
contract made President Gilmore de-
eide to take action. Besides Banding,
Killifer, williams and Baumgardner
are players who, the Federals claimed
have violated contracts with the new
league.
IF our contracts are no good, their
contracts are no good. A player can
disregard a contract with club in
organized ball as easily as he can
National and American League clubs
are trying to take our signed men away
from us, we will take theirs away.
I'VE have unlimited cash and the
united support of all our club owners
and hackers. We can bid as high for
the players as anybody.
up to this time We have played
fair with our rivals. We gave up Cole,
despite his having signed with the Chi
cago club when we believed that the
courts would have given him to us.
We signed Killifer and Blanding in
good faith and advanced money to
them.
IF the Americans and National
Leagues ignore our contracts and fail
to appreciate the spirit Of sportsman
ship we have shown, we will start the
biggest Of baseball wars. When it is
over the Federal League will have the
stars of the old leagues and will be
the strongest in the game
Negotiations were begun, it was said.

Collins, the Boston American pitcher
whom Gilmore wants. Dick Egan, the
Cincinnati player. it was learned. is
the eighth of the worlds tourists
sought by the Federals.
The Federals' umpires will meet to-
day to discuss Interpretation of the
rules. Among the topics for discus
is interpreted differently in the Amer
lean and National Leagues. Bill Bren-
nan, chief Of the umpires, feared that
the two interpretations might cause
confusion when former National
Leaguers were playing with American
Leaguers. Brennan will preside over
today's meeting. The umpires expected
are Steve Cusack, Steve Kane, Garnett
Bush, AL Manassau, Barry Mccormick.
Monte Cross and Ollie Anderson. Most
of the umpires will train with the
teams. Mccormick and Anderson, 1t
was announced. will go with the Kan
sas City and Indianapolis teams to
Wichita Falls, Tex.
The Federal Leagues grandstand
here will cost $219, 900, according to the
contract which was let Tuesday by
President Weeghman. of the local club.
It's general outlines will be those of

Miller chief deputy state fire mar
shall, into the conspiracy alleged by
the fire marshals office to exist among
several Hodgeman county thresher-
men to burn the outfits of all thresh-

alleged conspiratOrs, appeared In court
Tuesday and pleaded guilty. He had
been granted a change of venue be-
cause of the intense feeling over the
alleged fire-bug scheme in HOdgeman

Ottawa Girl Annoyed by Escaped Man
from State Hospital.

Ottawa. March "A day or two
ago a strange man appeared at Will

peculiarly as to attract much atten-
ton. To a number of people he di-
vulged the fact that he had visited the
city for the express purpose OF paving
his addresses to a certain young lady
of the neighborhOOd. This fact came
to the knowledge of the family Of the
girl, and they took means to have the
fellow suppressed. The girl had been
an attendant at the hospital for the
insane at Topeka, and her only
knowledge of the man was that he
had been an inmate.
Investigation disclosed that the
man, whose name is Yonelly. had re-

the intention of the company to make
this stretch of track one Of the best

near Collyer it is said a big change
will be made. The grades are also to

JAkE'S JUNK.

The future conduct OF two magnatee
OF the National League will be watch
ed with considerable interest. The ex-
pulsion of Horace Fogel Of the Phila.-
delphia club and C.. w. Murphy of the
Chicago club has done much to clean
up affairs of the parent league, but
there Is more that could be done, and
no doubt will be done If two more
magnates continue the same line of
performance which they have shown
Tor several years. These two men re-
ferred to are Garry Hermann of the
Cincinnati club and Charles H. Ebbetts
Of the Brooklyn club. These two men
have the unenviable distinction Of be-
ing the loudest extemporaneous talk
ers left in the National League. 1t
will be to their interest to heed the
action OF the league magnates in deal
ing with the aforesaid Fogel and Muir
policies. It will be noticed that the
experience of Fogel had no effect on
Murphy, but 1t may be different with
Ebbetts and Hermann for there are
two precedents to guide them on
their way. instead of but one chance
which was accorded Murphy.
Ban johnson may we'll reflect on
the actions of John Tener of the Ma
tional League. in listening to his
(Johnson's) suggestion concerning the
Murphy affair. In starting the fire
works. Ban says to John: II think you
have g. man who might be asked to sell
his club interest and get out of the
game" John listened and the nego-
tiations were engineered for Murphy
to sell his interest in the Cubs. A
similar pail hangs over one Robert E.
Lee Hedges Of the st. Louis Browns.
Don't be surprised If John gives Ban
the tip and the latter begins engineer
ing a deal for the sale of the club
mentioned. 1t would be a fine thing
for st. Louis and the American League
If Hedges were ousted.
Pa Rourke has the signed contracts
of all the desirable players ON his list
excepting Pitcher Bremen and Krug,
an infielder which he bought from the
Boston Nationals. Bremen Joined the
Omaha club during the latter part of
the 1913 season and appeared to be Just
about as good as any other on the
team. 1t is claimed that he will sign
as there is only a slight difference in
salary. 1t is claimed that Krug has
been offered more money than any
other man on the Western League but
he refuses to sign and Rourke has
just about decided that he won't get
him.
