JUDGE LANDS DIsMlsSEs
FEDS SUIT AGAINST o. g.
Its Withdrawal One of the stipuIations
in Baseball Treaty.

Chicago, Feb. 1.-THE suit Of the
Federal league against organized base
bal, based on alleged violation or the
antitrust laws, was dismissed TO-DAY
in the United States circuit court here
by Judge Kenesaw M. Lands, on mo-
ton of counsel for the Federal league.
For more than a year the suit, with It's
possible outcome, had hung over the
baseball world. Its withdrawal was
one of the stipulations in the recent
peace agreement between the Federal
league, newcomers in baseball, and the
older leagues.
No objection to the order of dismissal
was advanced by counsel for the Bal
timore Federal League club, though
that organization had declared its dis
satisfaction with the terms OF the
peace agreement.
The dismissal order was without
prejudice to further appeal to the court
by any of the interested parties.
After the order was entered Attor-
ney Stuart S. Janney, representing the
Baltimore Federals. said that If sat
fsfactory settlement was not made with
the club, it had ample opportunity to
seek redress in the courts either in
a suit for damages or under the pro-
visions of the Clayton act prohibiting
restraint of trade.
In announcing his decision to allow
the motion for withdrawal Judge Ian
dis said that the closest examination
of the evidence and arguments had
failed to bring forth anything reflect
ing on the honor of the game or on any
individual player.
None of the officials Of the Federal
or of the other leagues was in court
when the order was issued. both sides
being represented by counsel who as
sllred the court that all parties to the
suit had consented to the withdrawal
The intervening petition Of the Balti-
more club was presented by Attorney
Jenney, who entered his appearance in
the suit before the DISMISSAL order was
announced.

MORAN MORE FORMIDABLE
OPPONENT THAN DILLON
From Physical Standpoint - Pitts
burah Fighter Confident of Victory.

While Frank Moran, from a physi-
cal standpoint, is much more for
midable opponent than Jack Dillon
would be for Jess Willard. the fact re-
mains that the big western champion
will possess great advantages in
height, weight and reach over the
Pittsburgh pugilist, when the pair
meet in their 10-round bout here
equal age, Moran having been born
on March Is, 1887. and Willard on
December 20 of the same year. In
height Willard will tower fully five
ures 6 feet 1 inch and as to weight
Moran will have to concede at least
40 pounds. He generally enters the
ring weighing a couple of pounds over
the 200 mark while Willard in all like
lfhood, will not be very much under
$50 pounds, after training for five
weeks or less.
WIZARDS enormous reach of 80 1-2
inches as compared with Moran's rs
is handicap which the Pittsburgher
will have to overcome in order 10 have
chance of outpointing his big ad-
versary. That Moran is the possessor
| of courage, stamina and a punch Suffi-
GENTLY effective for a knockout has
been demonstrated in several of his
ring battles. He has been anxious to
the championship from Jack Johnson,
nearly a year ago, and basing his
chances on the showing he made
against Johnson at Paris in 1914. Mo-
ran believes he has the ability and
force to wear down Willard even in a
| limited bout Of ten rounds.
| If confidence is a potent factor in a
battle of this kind, Moran will not be
| found lacking in this essential Thai
he can absorb punishment Of the
heaviest kind, no one will deny, but
Moran may be over-confdent of his
prowess when pitted against such 6
giant as Willard. Moran makes nc
secret Of his intention to make this
the greatest effort of his career and
will try hard to land a championship
winning wallop with the chance o.
taking one for the count himself.
Wizards absence from the ring FOL
| nearly a year, except in exhibition
bouts, may have untitled him for a su.
preme effort but as the coming bou
only calls for ten rounds the cham
pion undoubtedly will acquit himsel
with all the skill of a titleholder. Hi
evenly balanced offensive and defen
sive tactics in addition to his endur
ance and cool-headedness combines
with a wonderful physique make VIII
lard seem almost invulnerable in tn
coming battle. 1t promises to be al

Current for lighting the lamps or
starting the engine of the gasoline
pleasure car must be generated by q
dynamo or a combination machine
that is known as a motor-generator
The motor-generator may be one of
several types-the one in which 1t will
serve as a motor until a definite speed
is attained, when it will begin to gen.
crate energy and will continue this
duty as the revolutions are increased
and decreased to a point when it will
again take energy from the battery as
motor; or it may be so constructed
that it will begin generation of cur
rent at specific number of turns and
will increase this to a given output
and will then decrease production I'M
til it will cease, or it may be motor
and a generator, each independent of
the other, that are contained in the
same housing, and which are so de-
signed that they serve each a pur-
pose through a single coupling.
The generator differs from the mo-
tor in that it is operated whenever the
engine is turned. The purpose of the
generator is to supply current to the
battery, which is drawn upon by the
lighting system, the ignition system
and by the starting motor. The gen.

Cincinnati, Ohio. Feb. THE Ma
tional Baseball commission today de-
MED the petition Of Pitcher Eddie Plank

based his request on a paragraph in
the Players Fraternity agreement
which relates to an unconditional re-
lease after a player has served ten
years in one team and because the
Federal league no longer has a claim
to his services.
The commission ruled that the first

by that club, which was contrary to
the Players Fraternity agreement:
In answer to the second contention
