Fullerton Whether {t wins or loses, the Fed- eral league has made a big hit with the 8,000 baseball players of Amert. ‘oa by its sult to enjoin the forces of organized baseball from bribing the players under contract with the Feds to jump. The Federals presented evidence that at one ‘time Charles Ebbetts, owner of the Brooklyn club, had ‘more than 24 ball players blaek listed, under suspension and unable to get employment © case of Jack Harper ts one that the Feds told, Harper was pitching for the Reds at a salary of $4,500, Tn one game he hit Frank Chance three times with pitched balis, the last one render ing Chance unconscious Chance accused Harper of hitting him pur posely and {nformed the pitcher of his intention of “putting him out of the business.” That winter President Murphy made a_ trade with Cincinnat! Chance tnatsted | upon having Harper in the trade. Harper Is Euchered Cincinnati traded Harper to Cht- cago and the Cubs offered Harper a salary of $1,500.

Harper appealed to the com- mission which declined to hear his case—and he was out: of baseball and never has been back. Mike Griffin, Mike Kelly and Walter Thornton were all driven from baseball. So was Bob Spade. Jack Pfiester, pitcher of the Cubs for years, was “waived” out of the league and banished when he re fused to obey orders and sign for what Milwaukee wanted him to play for—about ONE-THIRD his salary under his Chicago contract. More than 200 players have thus been driven out of the game! Fate of the Trio As an illustration of the power Brown and Pfiester of the Cubs agreed to hold out for more salary. ‘They agreed to stick together. Fin- ally Murphy gave them a com- Promise increase—and they signed. The night they signed an officer of the club remarked that they ‘would pay dearly for it! Note what happened.
