RUPERT TALK PLEASES

Federal League, announced prior to his
departure for Chicago yesterday after
noon that he would return East in the
course OF couple of weeks to aid the
detail of organization in the new minor
league OF New England cities which
proposes to operate as a farm for the
aspiring independents.
Gilmore declared that saturday
meeting in New Haven convinced MN
that such circui, would be paying
investment for it, promoters lie de-
ciares these men are willing to PROVIDE
both capital and cooperation on the as
smrance that Federal club presidents
turn over surplus talent and guarantee
salaries In excess OF the usual minor
league rates.
Il am sure" said the president OF the
Federals that "a ilOurisniug iudepth-
dent minor league will result for
the men, representing dozen cities,
talked most conv.ucingly'
From all accounts OF the New Haven
meeting there is little doubt that the
committee which waited on Gilmore d'd
talk convinciugly The great majority
of them have had % lot Oh rNl. enc
in promoting They We're the supposedly
strong financial pillars OF the late ld-
mented United States League and sew
eral other outlaw ventures that usually
broke up before midsuIson.
1t was learned yesterday, however.
that Gilmore did not come East with
the sole purpose of investigating condi-
tions In the New England cities. Tie
WAS prepared to accept Newark as
substitute, for Kansas city IN his big
circuit but would not guarantee per
manent franchise to the speculltlng
business men who We're ready TO tusts-
q rival to the Indians. The informant
further says that Gilmore has designs
upon New York and that ultimately the
indianapolis club will be switched to
the environs OF the Greater city.
Cen, Mccain. the former New York,
American scout who now manages Nor
ton r. Plants New London club. de-
clares that his sponsor is not making
an idle threat about parallelng any IN
dependent minor league which may in
wade New England territory. Mr. Plant
has officially notified Ban johnson Of his
determination to resent intrusion by the
Independents.
81 do not think an independent minor
league in our territory will get any fur
Their than the conversational stage,
says Mccain. but If il does some one
