MOTION WILL BE MADE IN SU- PREME COURT TO VACATE
 RESTRAINING ORDER.

] Buffalo, N. r., July IA motion
 will be made in supreme court here
 Monday for an order yacating the in- junction granted June 20 restraining Hal Chase, the former Chicago Amer ioan league first besaman, from playing with the Buffalo Federal leasue club.
 Notice of the motion and Chase's affidavit in answer to the complaint of the Chicago American league club were filed in the county clerks office today
 In the affidavit Chase seeks to show that all his contract relations with the Chicago team were lived up 10 and that he was a free agent when he sought employment with the Fed tra league.
 Chase declared his salary from the New York team was reduced from $S,000 Co $G,000 without previous notice, and that the only notice of his transfer to the Chicago team was when he was told by the Chicago manager to join that team at Boston. He protested against the ten-day clause in his contract and was told by Manager Callahan of Chicago that the clause was to be stricken out.
 Chase denied the allegation of President Comiskey of the Chicago 'club that he left that team surrep- Gtiously.
 The affidavit goes at length into the National agreement and indicates shat alleged violations of the Sher- man antitrust law will he one of the weapons used in the effort to quash the injunction that prevents Chase from playing with the Buffalo team.
