exhibition games in a few days.
Asked how it is that the Federal
league can afford to pay more for
PLAYERS than the major leagues, q
Federal league club official said re-
Gently: That's easy. The majors
are saving us a great wad of money
this winter by giving US considerable
free advertising, thus putting the Fed
eral league In class with the best of
them, SO We can use the money that
we might have been forced to spend
them to Join our clubs"
Ed Konetchy, the big first baseman
traded to Pittsburg by st. Louis. is
eral league. Same old gag. Using
this to get more money?
George Tebeau, owner Of the Kansas
City Blues does not believe the West
ern League teams would draw in Kan
sas City. Maybe not. Tebeau won't
allow a Western League team in the
Missouri city unless he Is interested in
1t with a block Of stock, and If given
the stock he would make it his busi-
ness to see that the Western League
team was not as good in its class as
the American Association team would
be in its respective class
The members Of the Players fra
ternity presented their demands to the
national commission, and part of them
were granted. Those few which were
important were amended so as to re-
move the sting and the others were
eranted as they were unimportant.
After all. the fraternity gained nothing
but lot Of free advertising.
The Federal league has accom-
plished a few things They have a
bunch Of managers who will be draw
ing cards. but no players. The Fed
erals helped the fraternity scare the
National Association to listening to
their dema nds, which would not have
been possible under normal condi-
tionS
Charles Sherman. In the Lincoln
News, suggests that q team be put in
Kansas City, Kan, T. the transfer Of
franchise is necessary. He makes
this suggestion as a reason to prevent
George Tebeau from getting stock in
such a club but this would not relieve
conditions. The National agreement

agreement, without the consent Of the
holders of the franchise In this radius.
As Kansas City, Kan. is not seven
not relieve the condition. He is right
in his statement which discourages the
Tebeauism In the Western League. He
has been at Lincoln long enough to
know what Tebeau did to st. Joseph
and Denver. when he was In the West
ern League.
It IL alleged that Hugh Jones will
find an outfielder to replace Willis
Cole in center field. Cole has no peer
in the Western League as q fielder,
and few in hitting, but has not the
most agreeable disposition in the
world. He has been with the Ante
lopes four seasons and IL reported to
be wanting q change Jones will be
lucky II he obtains an outfielder with
ability equal to Cole.
The Dallas team of the Texas league
is trying to induce Hugh Jones to send
the Antelopes there for training, but
Jones says no. the Antelopes will
train at home.
