baseball peace pact has been signed.
The representatives Of the Federal
league and of the national commits
sion representing organized base
ball affixed their signatures 20 the
historical document Wednesday
night at the Sinton hotel. But few
of the provisions contained in the
pact were made public. The follow
ing are those which the peace COM
missioners decided 10 give TO the
fans:
The Federal league ceases TO exist.
Charles H. Weeghman has pun
chased the Chicago Cubs.
Philip Ball. former owner Of the
St. Louis Federal league team, has
purchased the Browns. Fielder Jones
Will be his manager.
The players of the whales will

The players Of the St. Louis Federals
will be merged with the players now
with the American league team Of
the Mound City The players Of the
Kansas City and the Buffalo clubs of
the Federal league became the prop
erty of the organization.
To Assume Contracts.
Their contracts will be assumed
and their salaries guaranteed by the
league as a league All other play
ers will remain the property OF the
individual clubs, their salaries will
be guaranteed by the club owners
and whatever price they bring in the
open market will be pocketed by the
erstwhile magnates No disposition

that they were soundly trOunced.
Prest Gwynner of the Federal
league club at Pittsburgh came to
secure something from the ruins. He
was willing to purchase the Cleve~
land club Of the American league
and eager to purchase into the
Pirates. Barney Dreyfuss came here
and told the peace commissioners
that there was no chance, that he
wanted no partner that he needed
no cash. The American leaguers
displayed scant courtesy to the Fed

Dunn i'm NIiNup.

Jack. Dunn once owned the Balti-
more club of the international
league, but was unable to withstand
the fire of the Federals and removed
his club. Carroll Raisen was the
Federal league magnate who chased
the minor to the tall timbers. The
park of the International league club
was RACED, homes now stand upon
its site. and when the peace con-
versation arose Dunn and his In
ternational club were invited TO once
more occupy the territory and give
Baltimore baseball. Jack was will
ing. but there was but one place for
him to play and that was at the
Federal league grounds Raisen and
his associates requested much money
for their holdings; far more than
Dunn thought right. The Inter
national Lacquer baked; Raisen
wouldn't reduce his price; the Fed
eral league magnates backed him
and the men in organized baseball
said they would stand with Dunn. A
serious break doomed up as "a posi-
bility until a compromise committee

Losses Are Great.

Although the war has ceased and
peace again reigns in the national
game. the losses Of the Federal
leaguers cannot be computed, for
they will continue 10 contribute
money throughout the 1916 season,
with never the chance of a return
Here is one case to illustrate the
point.
Hal Chase jumped from the White
SOx 10 the Buffalo club and signed a
contract calling for a salary Of
5000 a year. Chase is on the
market. but there are no bidders
The once peerless first sacker is
wanted by none. That means that
the Federal league must find some
one who will assume that heavy
financial burden. and failing in this.
the league must pay the salary
Should Chase catch on" in either
the majors or the minors his new
club will not pay that large salary.
and for one year must the Federal
league pay the difference.
There are - players who have
contracts with the Federal league
and many Of those binding agree
ments will have TO be made good by
the men no longer possessing ball
clubs. And that means there won't
be a chance for those former mag
mates % get back a penny Of the
money they must pay out.

The last section of South Ia
coma boulevard, extending be-
tween South nj st. near the N. p.
right of way, to the end of the
present boulevard at Cedar st. at
3Sth. will be paved this summer.
The pavement will cost $780,

will pay $17,500, and adjacent
property owners $1S,500..
The city had hoped to build
the boulevard from the general
fund, but found last fall when
the 1915 budget was drawn up
that it had no money for the
purpose. The new section will
give a continuous-paved road via
