Jake Stahl. former manager of the
worlds champion Boston Red Sox. to
become manager of the Brooklyn Fed
eral League club, is still handing fire
to-day, according to a statement by
James A. Gilmore, president of the
league.
Robert B. Ward. president of the
Brooklyn Federal League club, depart
ed for Chicago late yesterday after
noon. Ward did not see the former
Red Sox leader yesterday. He talked
with him Thursday night and they
parted with nothing accomplished.
Jake announced after the meeting
that 1t looked as II he would have the
job, and he expected to see MIR. Ward
again, but the latter left rather sud-
denly yesterday and President Gil
more, of the new league, said there
had been no other meeting between
the magnate and the manager.

n LSO, Mr.. Bobby Gilks has some
~ ball club, down in Montgom-
cry, where Mr.. ]. Dobbs had
one last year, if our memory hasn't
slipped cog.
This is a good thing for Mr. Gilks.
Fans are easily spoiled these days,
and having contender one year, they
get the impression that there is such
a thing as the first division habit
which there really isn't; not in this
league.
But it looks as if Mr.. Gilks will oc-
cupy Mr.. Dobbs toga gracefully, to
say nothing of his kicks.
T EFT us look over Mr.. Gilks' line
IL up.
At FIRST base will be found either
Snedecor, a wellrated Southern
Lacquer of sterling ability, or Holm
horst, big fellow. who looked mighty
good in the American Association a
year or so ago.
At second, Howard Baker-who
came mighty near being q Cracker
this year-will doubtless perform
well. He is from the Eastern Assoc
citation, and has a fine record, batting
1907 last year and fielding .942.
Bill Elwert, the veteran Heio gen
eral of last year, will play third. He
batted 1862 last year and fielded .94S,
showing about the class of the hot
corner occupants in 1913.
Dee Walsh will be seen at short
field, or dark horse" that Bobby
is said to be grooming, or trying TO
get. or something. We don't know
ANYTHING about the d. H, but II ne
any better than Dee he's a dinger'

THE outfield looks able to take care
L of itself. Jantzen, Mcdowell and
DAILY are the regulars, with another
brunette plug in the offing, reputed
to have batted 1920 last year in the
American Association.
It might be we'll to ladle in little
hitting, as the trio named, while field
ing .953. .972 and .973, in order, batted
only ,257, psf and .24S, respectively

.FEDERALS HAVE
.175 NTRACTS;
. READY TO OPEN
Schedule Committee Meeting To
Be Held in Chicago EARLY
in March
BY James Clarkson.

~HICAGO, Feb. 21.-It's always
calm after a storm. Charles
- W. Murphy, Cub boss, wasn't
even at his office yesterday after
noon, consequently there are no spicy
interviews for your approval to-day.
Ban Johnson, the American League
lesler. was at his office, but had alb
souely nothing to say. The Fed
leaders were about and smiling, but
were unable to spring any sensations.
It was. indeed, a rather quiet day on
the baseball beat" but since the
scribes with the Cubs are sending IN
their interesting chatter the dear
baseball public will not want for news
pertaining to our great national pas
time.
James A. Gilmore, leading man with
the Federal League, was the only
baseball mogul we could find in Chi
cago yesterday who was willing to
talk. Murphy, as stated above, went
home at noon and failed to show
again during the afternoon at his Of
fee. He declares that he is now out
Of the limelight and that his place has
been taken by his sterling young ath-
letes No tears will be shed over
said announcement.
The Fed. boss informed us that he
now has 175 ball players under con-
tract He refused to mention any
names but as the ball clubs are now
reporting at their training camps the
fans can very easily get line on the
Feds. The National and American
League players who fail to report 70
their respective managers may be
placed in the suspicious column" All
you've got to do is to check the play
ers off as they report at the spring
camps Those who fail to report may
be regarded as Federal League posi-
bilities.
Mr.. Gilmore also told us yesterday
that the schedule committee of the
Federal League would assemble in
Chicago some time during the first
week in March. Now that the Ma
tlonal, American and Association
schedules have been announced, as
well as the International League
dates, the Fed schedule makers may
proceed with their work.
1t developed yesterday that one CT
the Cubs young pitchers, ]. ]. O'Con-
nor, was held UP by highwaymen the
other night and shot in the back dur
ing scuffie with the bad men.
0Connor is a former University of
Illinois athlete and last season per-
formed for the Terre Haute club. He
was signed by the Cubs last fall. The
report has it that while walking home
the other night on the South Side ne
was approached by footpads, who de-
manded a bunch of money. The lad
hadn't been given any advance money
and couldn't comply with the request,
whereupon, it is said, he was shot in
the back. Now he won't report to the
Cubs.
