GOV. TENER WELCOMES
CONTRACT TEST CASE
Says Catcher Killifer Belongs to
Phillies and Also Takes a Rap
at Federal League.

PHILADELPHIA. January 26.-Gov.
Tener president of the National League,
who declared last night that he welcomed
q test case to prove that William killifer,
the catcher. is the property of the Phila-
delphia club and that whatever agree
ment the player made with the Chicago
Federal League club was not binding
later commented at length upon the Fed
erals and the players said to have been
obtained by that league.
With the exception OF Tinker and
knabe," he said. the players obtained by
the opposition have ben either discards
or players of such mediocre attainments
that their absence will not hurt the club
they deserted. ! am happy to say that
no good player in his zenith has been in
duced to jump.
There is something deeply significant
in this fact. 1t shows that the players
with Il future or players In their prime
have too much foresight to jeopardizc
their careers by being moved by the Wis
onary schemes of the outlaw promoters.
Weeghman the Mainspring.
The handspring of the F'ederals is
Weeghman of Chicago. He is immensely
popular they tell me, and isn't in base
ball for the money. He is simply 4 real
fan and when he couldn't get d major
league franchise he allied himself with
the outlaws. Weeghman is the live wire
Of the league, but he can't assume all the
burdens of the enterprise himself
, Il was not at all surprised when l read
that John Barbour was going to retire
as president of the Pittsburgh Federal
League club. I never thought he conld
devote his time to putting an outlaw
league on it's feet. He has too many
other interests for that. Barbour and
went 10 school together in Pittsburgh,
and he is the first boy l can recall who
will hurt the Pittsburgh Federals in many
ways"
