 mind as to the type Of car you de- 1 sire, that is. the passenger capacity and DOW CT, the next important thing is the dependabiIity of the chassis. Ev- l erythihg else is of minor ilr1poftarice

Notify National League They
WIN Protect Signed Players.
~In and Out Of Courts" Says
GiImore-Wnl Start Fight.

Chicago, Jan. H.-The Federal League
today notified the powers Of organized
baseball that their signing OF players
already under contract with the Fed
eral will be fought in and out OF the
civil courts. This ultimatum was in
the form Of a telegram which Presi-
dent Gilmore Of the Federal League
sent to President Baker Of the Phila-
delphia Nationals declaring he would
protect the contracts signed by Al
Brennan and VIII Killifer."
The telegram read:
I'VE hereby officially notify you
that Ad Brennan and william Kiuifer
have signed contracts with Chicago
Federals and have received advance
money. Both our players and their
contracts will be protected"
So far the Federal League claims not
to have tried to sign a player already
under contract with a club OF another
league. 1t has been working on the
theory that q players contract would
hold good in 2 civil court though 1t has
not respected the reserve clause
Should the Philadelphia Nationals
sign Killifer and Brennan and civil
court uphold their jumping their Fed
eral contracts the decision, the Fed
eral officials said, might start a free
for all campaign for big league play
ers already signed. unless the decision
was based on the validity Of the re-
serve clause in the Philadelphia con-
tracts signed by the two men. The
players fraternity will not retain on
it's membership rolls anyone who
breaks q contract, according to Otto
Knabe, manager of the Baltimore Fed
erals, who arrived here today. This
