FEDS TO DISSOLVE LEAGUE NEXT
WEEK, SAYS CHICAGO REPORT

giving Gilmore prominent place in
the revamped baseball organization.
The Wards, according to the same
source of news, are to drop out of
baseball entirely. Their magnificent
plant, Washington park, will be leased
to some team to be decided on, while
the huge sum spent by the Brooklyn
bankers will be charged up to lad
vertising and publicity"
Sought Publicity.
"You know" expressed a we'll
versed baseball man yesterday, 1.-THE
value of the Federal league
was the greatest factor in interesting
the Wards in Gilmore's project. II
we can get as much publicity as
Weeghman has, we will join you in q
jiffy, was the way they put it to
Gilmore shortly before they accepted
the Brooklyn franchise.
LOT course they have spent immense
sums in putting up their plant, pay
ing players and in other ways since
joining the league, but even this great
amount is hardly drop in the bucket
compared to the annual outlay fol
their national advertising campaign
Deals Near Completion.
Tuesday has been fixed for the
date of the formal dissolution of the
circuit, because by that time all deals
for the purchase of the various Ma
tional league teams are expected te
be completed and the Federal mag.
mates will gather in indianapolis fol
the last time and formally quit"
One significant thing that wise peo'
pie believe that the Feds were plan.
ming to quit entirely is that no at:
tempt has been made to obtain bal
players for next season. The lone ex'
ception, apparently, has been Joe Tink
er, manager Of the champion Whales
who left short time ago for Shreve'
port, La, Ito look over the Whales
training camp. Joe didn't have thu
slightest intention of doing this. HI
is president Of an oil company thai
has leases near Shreveport, and is il
the south to inspect his company''
holdings, and to attend a meeting o:
the directors tomorrow to consider
plans for the erection of refinery.

be senior, as will Quarterback Har-
old Cusson. Joseph Rooney, who is
playing his first season as a high
school player, will be back and it is
thought he will be shifted from half
back to the >fullback position. An
thony Klink, who is a tackle, may be
shifted to the backfield next year.
Carl Jyhla and D. Forti, guards, will
return, as will Tackle Laird.
Several substitutes will bid for first
team positions next year. Kenneth
Hayes, who has been ineligible, owing
to scholastic difficulties, is expected to
try for the team in 1916. Eaton, Cow
an, Dahl and Curtiss are among the
substitutes who are expected to make
the first team players hustle for
positions next season.
If strong team is developed next
year, few games will be booked with
the minor high schools of the Range,
as many of them cancelled their games
with the local high school team this
season.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-Today the Fed
eral league exists in name only, and
unless all signs fail next Tuesday
will see the formal dissolution of one
of the most remarkable organizations
in the history Of promoting, says the
Examiner today.
Until every little detail Of the vari-
Gus deals which have to be put through
before the so-called "outlaw league
is officially dissolved, has been settled,
however, fans can expect nothing but
denials, quibbling and evasions. But
not wheel is being turned in the
Federal league today and the present
expectation is that nothing remains
but the completion Of the innumerable
transactions that will effectually wind
up James A. Gilmore's organization

Why Not Say
Goodbye, ::Sir?"

THE telephone 'Hello' has fallen into:
disfavor because it is not only useless

The telephone "Good-bye, however, is well
worth preserving, even in these days Of econ

The CHEEKY "Good-bye'' over the telephone

sometimes has of being cut off abruptly.

very few sheep or lambs were sold
at This reduction, statesmen either
forwarding the stuff or holding
over. Receipts today we're held
down TO 24OO head, and nothing
very good was included. Lambs
from Ft. Collins and from Monte
Vista brought $S.15 today, but
strictly choice lambs would reach
SS.35. Ewes sold at S5.35, only
medium quality. Sales today were
10 to % higher than Thursday or
Friday. Declines this year are
not taken seriously, because the
market can be nurSed back to

MARKET REPORT.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan.
1S.-The feature in the cattle
market here last week was the
fact that 10000 cattle, 60 per cent
of the supply, went into the hands
of Stocker and feeder buyers. The
bulk of these cattle went out at
prices - to % cents below Mon
day. The comparatively small
number of killing cattle remaining
sold at 10 to ID lower first part
of The week, but after Wednes.
day there were signs of returning
strength. Receipts today at all
points are light, and the market
is strong to - higher here on
killing cattle, run here 1900 head
StockerS and feeders again make
up a large proportion of the run,
and sales are steady on The best,
others unevenly lower. II requir-
ed powerful influence TO keep cat.
tie back today in Chicago terri
tory, where many feeders are al
most forced TO sell. Much of the
beef produced in the last few
weeks has come from low priced
cattle, a class that finds the best
outlet. Choice steers sold here
last week at 50, but high class
steers are selling at 1926 to 1915,
good short fed steers $3.50 to IS,
and plain steers $7.25 to $3.50.
Butcher cattle are strong 10 10
higher today, following weakness
since the first of the year. Cows
sell at $3.50 to $3.50, a few prime
cows up TO $7.25, bulls $5.75 to
$3.50, veal calves $3.50 to $10.50,
quarantine cattle in small supply,
mostly medium steers at $6.25 to
$500. StOckerS sell at S6.25 to
$40, feeders $7.25 TO S7.75.
Hog receipts were lighter last
week, but The market closed 10
to 10 cents below Monday. As a
general rule each days market
closed strong, for the day, indi-
eating that killers have a place
for hogs at the present range. Re-
ceipis today were 5000 head, mar

sales S6.75 to S6.95. Order buyers
paid the top. and some hogs were
locked up because statesmen de-
clined 10 sell to packers under 81.
Light weights brought within a
nickle of the top. The supply
here today is less than one half
as heavy as on either of the Two
preceding Mondays, and other
markets also have moderate re-
ceipts today, so that higher prices
later in the week may result.
Sheep buyers had bearish or
ders late last week, and their besi
bids on lambs Friday were around

the week. Ewes and wethers were
