FEDS SUIT AGAINST
0. B. UP TOMORROW
D. C. Supreme Court to Hear
Case Alleging Violation
of Antitrust Laws.

The suit of the Baltimore Federal
league Club against the base bali clubs
of the National and American Leagues
land former officials of the defunct Fed
eral League to recover $900,0 damages
for alleged conspiracy under the anti
{. ,st laws will be heard tomorrow In
Circuit Division of the Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia. A jury will
hear the. case. Justice Stafford will
preside.
Base Ball Officials Present.
Garry HERMANN, chairman of the ma
tional commission; Ban Johnson. presi-
dent of the American League. and John
A. Heydler, president of the National
Lea que, were in court today with a
number of the presidents Of the various
clubs composing organized base ball, ex-
pecting the trial to begin. Justice star
ford was engaged in the trial of another
case and the base ball suit had to be
deferred until tomorrow.
The suit is similar to one which came
up two years ago before the United
States district court at Philadeiph1a
The counsel for the plaintif withdrew
that suit in the midst of the trial and
it is reported the whole question will be
thrashed out here.
One of the most important legal ques-
tionS to be argued will be whether OF
not professional base ball is subject
of interstate commerce. Unless IT IL
held to be matter of commerce. 1t
is expected the leagues lawyers will
contend that there can be no monopoly
in restraint of trade and that no con-
Spiracy could have existed which would
make them amenable to the penalty OF
three times the actual damage sustain
ed by the Baltimore club by reason OF
the demise of the Federal League.
Claims of Baltimore Club.
The Baltimore club claims that
when the defendants "conspired''
against it and caused the Federal
League to blow up" Baltimore had q
fine park, which it had purchased, and
had contracts with a number of high
priced players. The damage actually
sustained, they allege, amounts to
100000, and under the triple damage
clause of the antitrust law they ask
judgment of 100000 against the
league clubs and the other defend
ants.
Attorneys Charles A. Douglas of the
local bar, William r. Marbury. w. L.
Rawles and l.. Edwin Goldman OF the
Baltimore bar appear for the plain
tiffs. The national commission is
