Federal League ce lif!s baseball organizatibn t1!4etclle Ward estate, controlling ahe Brooklyn Fed erals was to be indemnifed to the ex- tent of $400,000, twenty annuities of $20,0OO to be assumed by the major leagues.
 Harry Sinclair. owner of the New ark franchise. was to receive $2O0,o 900 after a similar fashion, and Edward Gwinner and his brother directors of the Pittsburgh Federal League club were to get $50.000.
 Payment Deferred.
 Because of the Baltimore suit, which is awaiting adjudication by the Su- preme Court, the major leagues de- ferred payment of the promised an nuities Since this agreem ent of two years ago the Pittsburgh club has been declared bankrupt The major leagues consequently will turn over $5000O to it's trustees.
 The major leagues agreed yesterday to outline a settlement program which would incorporate the payment of the annuities that have been held back fer two years Inasmuch as the Balt1- more suit against the majOrs-whlch is to be tried on several counts-ls on next years calendar, the announce ment yesterday that the major leagues were to discharge their indebtedness according to their original agreement is taken to mean that the directors or the Baltimore club have agreed to private settlement of their differences with organized baseball.
 A link supporting this belief is the appearance of Ned Hanlon, the illus trious leader of the old Superbas, who it is believed is acting in the role CT collateral holdings and good will rep resented S3O0.OO0 which was rendere1 valueless by the cessation of Federal League activities. If there is now a sub rosa agreement with Baltimore on which will depend the nullifyinG of the suit before the Supreme Court it is probable that a payment in annu;ties similar to that proffered other Fed eraI League clubs will be decided up on.
 The National League has appOinte1 a. committee consisting of Club Presi dents EbbetS, Hampstead and Baker to devise ways and means to dispose of the Federal League parks which were beQueathed to them in the orig lnaI terms of the peace agreement | was further agreed that the two major leagues would take over the expense, that have accrued upon these proper ties during the two years that the an nuity payment was held in aboyance.

'KEYPORT'S RED
CROSS APPEAL
Urgent Plea Issued by Chapter
in Christmas Roll Call Men,
bership Drive

BY hpectoI Correep0ndeHt
KEYPORT, Dec. z0-The woman's
committee Is meeting with splendid
success In the house to house canvass
for Red Cross memberships. Almost
everyone seems to be alive to the
needs and In responding accordingly.
The needs of the men In camps at
home nda abroad are still urgent and
will be until every last ms of them is
back In his own home where his "
mother or wife can care for him.
Furthermore. the Red Cross Is priv
ileEed TO be able to bring comfort and
relief to the stricken families In Bel
Rfum, France. Italy. Serbia, Palestine
and other countries. Then, too. every
one should know that the Red Cross
does relief work at home In any emer-
gency that may arise. We In this sec
ton have q concrete example of that
In the Morgan explosion. Here Is the
answer to make to those who refuse
TO become q member now because
they think the work Is ut an end.
There will % work for the Red Cross
just as long as there IL suffering and
hardship In the world.
There is one other objection raised
to enrolling low In the Red Cross.
Some people say II am q member, I
Joined last March," or maybe in May
or July. cry likely those who Joined
In March. May or July or some other
month have membership cards dated
to the corresponding month In 1919
The question Is should they enroll now
In this Christmas campaign. The an
swer yes. by all means." For II your
membership expired las March, May
or some other month in the course of
the past eight or ten months that in
dictates that you were one of the far
sighted patriots who realized before
the majority of US did. just what a
wonderful organization the Red Cross
was. You are a citizen with a heart
ando ne who is deserving OF many
dollars. You can be counted on n
dorse the plan of National Headduar-
ters and have all memberships begin
on the same date. January 1.
On the other hand your member
ship taken out last March or July or
some other month in the course of the
past rear may ave been a new mem
bership. In that case you neglected
TO respond to the urgent heart rend-
ing appeals that were made in every
quarter of a suffering world a year
ago. Here Is a way to redeem yourself
Look up a member of the roll call
committee and tell them you have de-
cided to cancel your last years men,
bership even II II does have three or
four months or six months to run.
Then enroll now for the full yea of
1919. get your 1919 pin and window
flag for 1919 and prove you have both
a heart and a dollar"
Keyport has a large quota and il
we are to go over the top 1t will mean
that every man. woman and child who
is capable of producing the necessary
dollar has helped put this town where
It belonogs on the Red Cross may.
