FEDS PLAN RAID
+. ON THE minors
Seek Alignment With Num-
Der Of Organizations
Dissension Created.

New York, Oct. 24.-One Of the
biggest schemes the Federal league
magnates have UP their sleeves was
discovered here yesterday, when the
Independent forces commenced to
mobilize. The meeting here was call
ed primarily, to plan . fna! raid on
the National Association Of Profess
sional Ball clubs, Of which more than
forty minor leagues will assemble at
Omaha, Neb., on November 10.
The Federals realize that as there
is only a slight chance OF coming. to
q satisfactory settlement with the
major leagues, the only plan left to
embarrass organized baseball is to
set control Of some Of the minor
supply Of players. Then to establish
these leagues where tho Federals can
send their excess supply Of players
and develop new talent.
Gilmore to Attend Meeting.
Today the Federals will probably
appoint a committee to en-
rnasse on Omaha next month, pro-
vided with funds to convert all the
minor leagues possible. 1t was learn
Of the Federals has already engaged
reservations In an Omaha hotel for
the day when the minors will be there.
The Federals' hope Is to persuade
some Of the minors to desert organized
Big Inducements will be offered. so
the story goes. Some Of the minor
leagues r ready to do it, because
they have suffered considerable loss
ers going to the Federals. thus de-
priving them of the event they
would receive If they had been taken
by some Of the higher leagues of or
ganized ball.
The convention of the minors at
Omaha is going to be tho largest
gathering OF baseball men in the his
tory Of the country. The minors, al
though now protected better than
they ever have been by the. national
agreement. will seek further protec-
ton this year. :
Feds Create DissenAon.
The Federal league has created a
serious condition Of affairs in many
Of the minor leagues through the west.
It has brought about a condition
which has made many Of the minor
league stars 50 boldly independent
that they have ignored the discipline
which has held them in line before
the Federal league intruded. Of1cers
from the Feds have placed many Of
the better class Of minor league play
ers in a position where they have act
ed about as they please. and have in
stilled defiance, INSTRUMENTATION and
listless playing in the minor league
ranks.
Bresnahan Story Denied.
A yarn came out of the west yes
terday detailing the alleged fact that
Roger Bresnahan Of the Cubs had
jumped to the Feds and would man
age the Brooklyn team in the "out-
law" league next year. It was an ex-
citing story. but the Wards, owners
of the Brooklyn team, say 1t isn't true.
Nothing in it at ALL" was the re-
ply to questions. "If Bresnahan has
agreed to manage a Brooklyn team
next year 1t must be some sandlot or
