this was possibly the most active day

tion in Restraint Of
Trade"

Minor Leagues Supply Play
ers to Various Major
Leagues.

limited, Press Leased Wire Service.]
CHICAGO, Jan. 5.-The Federal
league today filed suit in the United
States court before Judge Lands.
asking that the National baseball COM
mission be declared Illegal and void.
Filed in the name of the Federal
League or Professional Baseball clubs.
against the Nationak League OF Pro-
fessional Baseball Gibbs. the American
League OF Professional Baseball clubs,
August Hermann, Ban Croft, B. John
son, John K. Tener. ct al. the petition
asks also that the national agreement
under which the national commission
operates. also be declared illegal and
void.
The suit asks that the defendants
be declared as constituting com.
bination, conspiracy and monopoly In
violation of common law, in contraven-
ton of the antitrust and monopoly
statues, and in restraint OF trade and
commerce in and among the several
states, in derogation of the constitu-
tional right OF contract" 1t is furth-
err asked that defendants be enjoined
from further continuing to do bust
ness as a part of ors in connection
with said combination, conspiracy and
monopoly"
After going into great detail re-
garding baseball as business and ex-
planning the residences of the re-
spective owners OF the Federal league
clubs, the petition, filed by the law
firm of Myers and Gates, points out
that the National commission domin-
ates the American and National league
but not the Federal league. Through
domination OF these two leagues. the
petition explains, the national COM
mission has under its domination and
control all but 800 or approximately
10000 professional baseball players
OF varying degrees OF experiences.
The 800 are under contract to the
Federal league. 1t is explained that
"at all times heretofore the supply OF
expert baseball players had been I'M
equal to the demand Of the various ma
jor leagues" and that such demand
must be supplied from minor league
ranks. Under the national agreement
the plaintiff asserts, players in the
minor leagues are dominated by the
national commission by alleged illegal
contracts which prevent the Federal
league from having access to this
supply OF young players.
