The Killifer case was cited as an instance where "unclean hands" had been found on the part of the plaintiff and in support of 10-day clause, as contained In the organized ball contracts, decisions in the old Lajoie case, a suit Involving Lillian Russell, and the Marsans case were cited, Attorney Miller went over the peace negotiations of last fall to show that the Federal League tried to form an alliance with Its present opponents.

Orgauizatious to Jump, Says Local Federal Magnate. REFUSES TO PREDICT Four well known minor leagues have ofrerrt In oftiliato with the onerea to aimiate tnemsenes wnn ine Federal League at any time. The truth of the above statement waa verified yesterday afternoon by President Kd. W. Gwinner of the local Federal League club.

Mr. Gwinner returned home yesterday morning from Chicago where he attended the opening of the Federal League's anti-trust suit against organized baseball. The matter was discussed by the independent moguls assembled in- Chicago and all seem to be in favor of the plan. Mr. Gwinner said his league "would have a farm for surplus players.

Karh club on the circuit has several men they can- not possibly take care of and a branch league will have to be obtained. "Much depends on the outcome of the suit before Judge Landis at the present time," declared Gwinner. "Each of the four leagues have through a representative offered to come under the Independent flag and at least two of them were willing to come in before thd suit was even settled." May Return to Chicayo. According to Gwinner the minor fe'asue olhcials made their offers voluntan.y and without any solicitation from the eds whatever. Kadi gave the assurance that his colleagues could be in Huenced to make the change and many of them were already decided.

Gwinner said he was not at liberty to name the leagues that have offered to become farms for the Feds, but he declared that they are well established circuits in prominent sections of the country. When asked regarding the suit before Jude Landis the local magnate said, "it looks aS if we have a very good caae, but I wouldn't attempt to make a prediction as to the probable outcome. have only heard one eide and that was ours, Mr. Pepper, the attorney for organized ball having Just opened his cam as I was leaving." When asked whether r.t thought the case would be thrown out before being finished. President Gwinner said it was hardly possible.

He also expects the case to continue through next week, and in this event Gwinner stated that he would return to Chicago for the final blow-off. President Gwinner expressed his utmost confidence in the decision that will be rendered by Judge Landis. The noted i iurist according to the local Club owner i accoramg to tne local cmo nas keen knowledge of baseball and at gS tow of the Fed attorney repeating statements of the previous day and he was promptly reminded of it by Judge Landis.

Jlie came might be likened unto a horse race.

Gettysburg, a light team. traveled ahead a surinter, until the i three -quarter pole was reached, when it blew up. while Pitt, like a big stronger trotter, took its second wind at the pole, just when strength and stamina is demanded, and won in a canter. Gettysburg looked like a sure winner the first half, while Pitt performed tar below its form and for a while peared to be in for its first defeat of the i year. The half ended 18 to 15.

in favor this'vear that' Pitt has been in the rear'- of 22 trials.

Charges of "inland hypocrisy were made Federal League today, by George V. Miller. ho presented what is believed will be the concluding argument on the side of organized ball in the anti-trust suit brought by the Ked-era. He declared a temporary injunction asked by the Federals would destroy an institution it had taken organized ball years to build. In supftort of his charges.

Miller cited Instances in which he the Federal Leaguers had signed players under con tract with clubs in organized ball; the sections of the Federal League con-' tracts, he alleged, corresponded to the criticised 10-day and reserve rules; and the alleged justification of raids by the plaintiff on the ground that 10-day i clauses invalidated American and a-j Uonal League contracts. End of Hearing in Sight. Quoting at length front P.oger Bresnahan, Miller emph portion where Bresnahan said he had Ik en told by Federal League emissaries tt ey wculd have a street cut through the grounds of the Su Louis Nationals. This, the lawyer contended, strengthened hia charge of "unclean hands." rTe. end of the hearing was in Bight tonight.

It was said that when the statement by E. E. Gates, of counsel for Federals had been concluded, probably tomorrow. Judge Landis would take the case. Xone of the attorneys interested would hazzard a guess as to when a decision would be announced.

Miller analyzed a number of alleged raids made last year on the National and American League teams by the Federals. Incidentally he read a list of what purported to be the salaries, year by year, paid by organized ball clubs to players who since had left its ranks for the Federals. He said that Lee Magee in 1911 had drawn $1,500. $2,300 in 1912, $3,400 in 1913. and $7,200 in 1914.

Joe Tinker's salary, he asserted, reached $5,600 In his last year with the Cubs 1912,. and $10,000 as manager and shortstop for Cincinnati in 1913. Mordecai Brown, acordlng to Miller's figures, drew $3,500 in IMS. $4,100 in 14. $4,600 in 1910.

$5,500 in 1811. and $7.0110 in 1.012. Even with an injured leg, that partially incapacitated him. Brown drew a salary of $4,000 from the Cincinnati club, which he joined the next year, with a promise of. a bonus conditional upon hia work.

Teds Reserve Clauae. According to Miller, the Federal League's reserve clause, as shown in the affidavit of Umpire Steve Cusack, holds a player for 10 seasons, granting him a per cent increase in salary each year, and pro-Tiding that he must be notified of the Bennett's TODAY, SIR, FOR BENNETT CLOTHES A THESE Big Reductions $1 n.50 For Winter Suits formerly $25.00, $23.00, $30.00 $26 50 For Winter Suits formerly $35, 38, $45 20 .00 For Winter Overcoats and were $35.00. $28.00, $: 0.00 30 .00 For Winter Overcoats and Ulter were $35, $40, $45 and $50 "Mnnmtt Mmanm Bmst' J.G.
