FEDERALS WILL BUILD
BIG PARK IN NEW YORK
FOR SEASON OF 1916
Finley J. Shepard and
Henry G. Frick Reported
Behind Plans for Rival
Ball Stadium to Be
Biggest in Country.

NEW YORK, June 19.-The Federal
League will have club in New York
city In 1916. The team will be transferred
from one of the other cities in the west
ern end of the Federal circuit.
The hacker of the New York Federal
League club, whose name will not be an
nounced for some time. Is reputed to be
millionaire several times over.
The playing field for the Federals al
ready has been procured. 1t is $50 feet
long and $40 feet wide, is in the heart
OF the city, 20 blocks nearer to the down
town section than Is the Polo Grounds,
and sizes up as the largest playing field
In the country.
Plans already have been drawn for the
stands. They will be of concrete and
steel and will seat 42.OOO-more than any
ball park in the country. new plan of
construction will be followed out in
building these stands. There will not be
any posts supporting the upper tier of
the grandstands.
The plans have been drawn by Archi-
tect Comstock, of New York, who de-
signed the Chicago and Brooklyn Federal
League stands.
The purpose of President Gllmore's
visit In New York has been to approve
the plants for the stands and to
straighten out most of the final details
relative to placing a club in New York
The field that the Federals will use In
Manhattan in 1916 Is the same field upon
which they obtained an option nearly a
year ago, and which was exercised Just
recently when the necessary backing for
the club was secured
Finley j. Shepard, who married Helen
Could and Henry C. Frick, multl-milIion-
aire, have been reported as the men be-
hind the New York Federals, but the
Federal League leaders will not make any
statement at this time.
