WALTER JOHNSON'S
JUMP is TALK OF
BASEBALL WORLD
Great Pitcher, Who Will
Play With Chicago Fed
erals, Likely to Precipitate
Another Bitter Fight.

WASHINGTON, u. c.. Dec 4-walter
Federals without a fight by organized
baseball. This was declared today by
Manager Clark Grifnth, OF the American n
League Nationals. The Washington Club
today began preparing fight In the
courts for Johnsons services.
"a clause in Johnson's 1914 contract il
going to prevent him from playing with
the Chicago Fedsrals," Grifith declared.
A nght in the courts to the bitter end
was promised by GrifHth.
A string TO Johnson's salary contract
this year upon which the washington
Club will base its legal action was d.
vulged today for the first time by Grifith.
He said johnson signed last spring for
$4,000. but that he was paid only $4,000,
the balance Of $500 binding the player to
siEn for 1915.
Grifith stated that the Nationals Of
fered Johnson $4,000 for a three-year con-
tract, but the Feds outbid him. Grifith
previously stated he would not enter any
auction for johnson to compete with
exorbitant Federal League offers.
Captain George Mcbride wired Griffith
today that he was surprised and disap-
pointed over Johnson's action, but that
IL would not have any effect on other
team members.
Washington fandom was not surprised
at Johnson's action. Most believed that
the Feds would secure johnson after
Griffith announced that the club would
not try to compete with the Feds in finan-
cial offers to the King"
A meeting of the directors OF the local
club was called today to consider John
sons flop" President Ban Johnson. of
the American League, is expected here
soon for a conference and council of war
Of plans for legal action against Johnson.
