0. B. BLUFFED,
SAYS ILMORE
We're Afraid Not to Make
Peace With Feds.

WASHINGTON, April 4.--Organized
baseball was "bluffed" into making
peace with the Federal league, accord
ing to testimony given yesterday by
James A, Gilmore, former president of
the latter organization in the Balti-
more Federal clubs 5000, 900 damage
suit against the National and American
leagues and officers of the Federal
league.
Mr.. Gilmore, who was the first wit
ness called for the defense, told the
jury that he originated the plan for
what he termed Gigantic bluff" to
force peace in baseball by inducing the
American and National leagues to COM
promise with the Federal league when
it no longer was able TO continue. His
plan, he said, was to scare organized
baseball into suing for peace by threat
ening to Invade New York.
In pursuance Of his plan, Mr.. Gil
more, who is one of the individual de-
PENDANTS in the suit, said the Federal
officials secured a two years lease on
elaborate offices in New York, took
options on playing grounds at 144th
street and Lenox avenue, secured au-
thority from the board Of aldermen to
close adjacent streets and had plans
drawn for a large stadium.
The major league officials, Mr.. Gil
more testified, "fell' for the bluff and
made overtures which resulted finally
in peace and dissolution of the Federal
league.
