GILMORE DENIES
FEDS ARE AFTER
BASEBALL PEACE
Stories of Officials Confer
ence in Philadelphia Are
StrenuousIy Denied.
BY j. p. N.

BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 11.-James A.
Gilmore, president of the Federal
League, denied most strenuously here
truth in the stories being published
that the Federal League magnates
were in official conference with the
members of the National Commits
sion at Philadelphia during the
worlds series games and made over
lures for peace. Mr.. Gilmore said
that the Feds were not suing for
peace, but that they naturally are, to
serve the best interests of the game
in receptive mood for peace. He
declared that there had not been any
conference in Philadelphia, but he
admitted that he and other Federal
League magnates had had an inforA
NAL discussion with organized base
ball men.
1.-THE Federal League has taken a
stand and we will stick together, >"
said President Gilmore. I'VE will ac-
cept peace, but we will not seek. We
are all set and ready to go into New
York next season and to continue our
fight for big league recognition. But
we are not running around looking
for any favors from the o. BIS, you
can bet your bottom dollar on that,
and he added forcefully, you can
make my statement in that respect
as strong as you wish
@
In the stories published regarding
peace overtures, it was stated Ban
johnson, president of the American
League and member of the Ma
tional Commission, had said that he
would never confer with the Feds
while Mr.. Gilmore was present. In
fact, Mr.. johnson went further, the
stories had it, and declared that he
talked peace matters over with the
Federals after, upon Bans request,
Mr.. Gilmore had been asked to leave
the room. To this President Gilmore
said:
'"rhere wasn't any conference in the
first. place. and | was not asked to
leave any meeting room. That is a
silly statement on Johnson's part. and
leads me to believe that Mr. Johnsons
goat is rampant.
O.
''If peace comes" Mr.. Gilmore con-
tinued, "amicable relations will be
arranged while ] am present. Every
owner of the Federal League is with
me. and we will all stand pat to-
gether.''
That there is a peace move in the
air is apparent. Everybody is talk
ing about it. The National Commis-
sion held a session at the Copley
Plaza this morning, and there were
rumors that the commission was dis.
cussing plans whereby peace with the
Feds would be brought to an issue
All are business men, and it seems as
If some practical solution of the mat
ter will come about before the winter
months are over. What these plans
will be 1t is difficult to conjecture
but, according to President Gilmore
the only terms the Feds will listen tC
will call for the complete recognition
of the third big league.
