Gilmore of Feds Thinks the Star itcher Has Been Wrongfully Per- suaded by Attorneys. Chicago, Dec. 20.—Waiter Johnson, star of the pitching staff of the Wash- ington Americans, who jumped to the ‘Federal League and who vesterduy announced he had jumped back to his old club, has mot yet communicated with James A. Gilmore, president of After the game the cup was pre- sented to the winners by President Reid Mclntyre of the league who con- gratulated the winning team and ex- prossed that he was sure that the best team won. Captain Walker the Plainfield club accepted the cup in a few well chosen words. ~Several other officials of the league made short addresses. The executive committee ~ of the league held a special meeting ag which Taftville filed a protest which was withdrawn. . Next season it is hoped to add several teams to the cir- cuit and the following have been sug- gested: ~ Jewett, City, Willimantic and 14-Karat Ladies' Salid Gold Case, Waitham Ladies’ and Gents' Filled Watches, a good Waitham Movement, $10. up.

PUTTING IT UP TO mony in It EDDIE COLLINS Connie Mack Wants to Restore Har- Team, is an open secret that Connie Mack felt compelled to rid the Ath- letics of Eddie Collins to restore some measure of harmony to the team. And it is generally understood that the discord which Connie seeks to alleviate was caused by Eddie Collins' ill-ad- vised newspaper articles in which he disclosed team secrets, and thus, in the opinion of his fellow-players, put them under n handicap, Sporting News, says the It is mot the first time that a ball of the American league recognized the evil and evidently Mr. Collins sought to suppress held - himself it, but above authority and proceeded with his labors as an author. the Federals, nor returned the $6,000 adanveed salary paid him, it was said here today by Gilmore. Gilmore reiterated his belief that Johnson had been wrongfully persuad- ed by attornevs for the American League that the reserve clause of the American League contract would hold him. Gilmore today sent Johnson a long telegram urging the pitcher to come to Chicago at the expense of the Federals and to submit the conmtracts to three lawyers, to be chosen by disinterested persons. “If it is the opinion of these lawvers that your action was justified” contin- ued the telegram, “it will place you in the proper light before sport-loving people. “If on the contrar that your action wus it is their opinion not honarable yesterday, you will forever carry on your shoulders a burden of dishonor. “If you come to Chicago as I re- quest, 1 will then know it was the un- fairlyfairly employed influence of old- claims ‘any attempt by Harvard to seize the championship each year, al- though for the past three football sea- sons Harvard has been given the first honors. The winning of the champion- ship by Haughton's team is always a welcome climax to the season, but no consideration is given to the desire to gain the championship. ~ On . these grounds the Harvard chairman ex- cuses the Crimson echedule makers for omitting other big teams from the list —Dartmouth,” for instance—for if there is no_championship being sought it is not_incumbent on Harvard to engage in games-with other possible contend- ers for the title in order to make the winning of the championship definite.
