CALLAHAN CALLS
5TAHL POTTER
F Or FEDE RAILS
Sox Leader Declares Abroad That
Jake Urged One Of Party to
Become Fed Agent,
By Damon Rlnyon.
ceisI Gable to The Atlanta Georgian.

ONDON, Feb. 26.-It has leaked
out by accident that during the
Paris visit one of the most
prominent players OF the Giants
White Sox party had been in close
rcuch with the Federas to such an
extent as not only to be approached
himself, but also to be asked to APP
proach other playing associates of
the worlds tourists.
There is every reason TO believe
hat Jake Stahl is the man who did
tbe dealing for the Federals, while
the man he asked to become the
agent of the Federals in so lar as
worlds tourist talent is concerned is
n personal friend of the former Red
soX manager.
n seems that Stahl made no def
ni;o terms 20 this player or suggested
no definite terms for the others, but
asked his friend to see the boys and
.el them to refuse to sign with or
esnizcd baseball until they returned
and heard from the federals.
The facts were made known by
jimmy Calla han. manager OF the
White SoX He is said to have had
wordv interview with the PLAYER. who
q Chicago player. Callahan has gone
ia Ireland on a short visit SO that no
statement can be obtained from him.
If IS claimed that all the White SoX
with the party have signed, while Nc
GRAVY has not only put all the Giants
rnGer contract. but is said to have
tic promises of all the other National
League players of the party not TO
deal with the IFederals until they get
home and see their old managers.
THAT the PLAYER approached by
! Stahl mentioned the matter as
serious proposition 10 some of the
others is certain. But most of the
mon seem still inclined TO put little
faith in the E'ederals. iris Speaker
said last night that he had notified
the Red Sox he would be ready to DO
business on his return. He had been
notified that President Joseph j. Lam
min would meet the players down the
bay when the Lusitania gets to New
York
Speaker does not say definitely that
he is going to sign with the Red SoX,
but his attitude so indicates.
The globe galliyanters rumbled into
London last night. They are quar-
tered at the Hotel Cecil. Long be-
fore all had registered papers were
on the street bearing interviews from

said on the jog around the globe, no
