Jacob Reimann. station agent at
Woodlawn. of the Harlem division, has
discovered trunk mystery. He was
checking up trunks left by a train
when he discovered one from which
blood was trickling. After the cold
chills got tir ] chasing each other up
and down his spine he recovered the
use Of his vocal organs and called the
Yonkers police headquarters by tele-
phone and said to Lieutenant Cooper:
This is the station agent at Wood
lawn. We have trunk here consign-
ed to Viola Halliday, Yonkers. There
is blood dripping out Of one end, and
wish you would send a couple of
men. I've lost two negro helpers since
it came. They will not go near It."
The Younkers policemen found Viola
Halliday to be mild hammered ne
gress who was thrown into a real
state of confusion by their inquiries
about mysterious trunk consigned to
her from Lynchburg. Va. She acted
suspiciously the police thought, and
while one man Swallowed the house the
other hurried to Woodlawn.

One of the Principal Reasons for the
Failure Of the Federal
League.

NEW YORK, December 25.-The lib
erality of the Federal League toward
Its ball players left the club owners CT
organized ball dumfounded when the
Feds showed their salary list at the
recent peace meeting in this city. A
club owner in one of the major leagues
stated yesterday that he was surprised
when the Federal League officials told
of the thousands of dollars they had
spent on inflated salaries. In order to
lure the players away from the major
leagues their salaries were doubled and
some of them were trip,ed. According
to the officials of organized ball, it was
this unusual extravaganza of the Fed
eral League which caused its downfall
A few examples of the increase which
the Federal League gave in salaries
shows that it was impossible for the
Federal League to ever come out even
financially. The following table shows
how much salary some of the players
received under organized base ball and
what the Federal League paid them:
