FEDS SURRENDER
TO Be COMPLETE
Stories That Organized Base
Ball Quit Not Borne
Out by Facts.
ELIMINATION OF OUTLAWS .
PROOF OF THEIR DEFEAT
Clark Griffith Angered at Misin-
formation Being Printed
Without Foundation.
BY j. ED GRILLO.

SO many misleading stories about the
peace conference coming out of New
York, which make it appear that the
National League and organized base
ball have been defeated, call for an ex-
pianation, Those familiar with the
present peace movement know that it
was the Federal League which started
it If it were possible to quote the
terms OF the original proposal of peace
as submitted by the Federal League
to both the National and American
leagues there would remain no doubt
that II was the Federal League which
grew tired of the war and which quit.
The very fact that the Gilmore cir
cult is going out of business is con-
elusive evidence that the venture was
beaten. Organized base ball jumped at
the offer made by the Feds because it
gave them more than they had ex-
pected. The Feds absolutely gave I'D
the struggle. They made complete
surrender and are gcing to assume
much of the losses suffered by organ
lied base ball by reason of the exist :
ence of the Federals
W hen the smoke clears away after
the present negotiations and the Feds
are put out of existence it will be at
their own request, for in their proposal
for peace they frankly admitted to the
two major leagues that they were
beaten and willing to surrender
Manager Griffith, who is most familiar
with all the facts concerning the ef-
forts of the Feds in the peace move
ment. has been aroused by the stories
which have been printed about organ
i"ed base ball laying down.
writers of these articles are not
familiar with the real facts" said Man
aScr Griffith this morning. How can
any one figure a victory for the Feds,
who are going out of business. The
game has been cleared of this harm
full factor. Organized base ball has
won its contention that there is not
room for three major leagues, and, in
cidentally, has convinced it's rivals that
there is no chance for base ball to sue
ceed without the necessary evil Of the
ten day release clause.
'Orga nized base balls victory Is COM
plete. 1t has gained every point and
without having to shoulder any further
losses; ii will be strengthened by the
acquisition of the financial hackers of
the Feds, who are coming into the fold
and it is assured of peace for practical
ly all time TO come"

this game c. Parker was the star of
the Stevens-Lincoln game.
But little enthusiasm marked the
opening games, for some of the teams
were clearly outclassed and it was
just a case of how many points would
be scored in the 12-minute halves
played in each game. The Stevens
heavy team scored almost at will, and
unless something unusual happens will

team at the close. These players have
plenty of speed and are accurate pass
