Yiux Submits His Terms. That fine dinner, so. enjoyable to Mensor, Viox and Cooper, but so costly and disappointing to the giib Fielder Jones, was all that came of the rash attempt to break up the Pirate team. Viox, it is understood, told Jones that he would sign with him under only one condition. "Name it," commanded Jones.

I'll sign if you give me a five-year contract calling for $4,000 a year and give me the in advance." That broke up the dinner party and a few days later Jones was saying nasty things about anything and every hody from Pittsburgh. Since the Feds have plainly put players ruder the same bondage which they loudly condemned in the beginning, it now appears certain that they cut off their noses to spite their faces it; filing the suit to dissolve the National Commission. That organized ball will threw a few bombshells to offset the spitfire of the Giimore forces is certain.

By JAMES Barney Oreyfusis packed a bunch of af- tiUavits, a soit of pajamas itnd a short story magazine in his mysterious black griii last night and left hurriedly for Chicago, the center of disturbance in the present bastbaU war. The Pirate owner will arrive at the seat of war this morning and before noon he will lUe fits affidavits with attorneys lor presentation to the Federal Court, fccm time during' the day President Lreyf uss will hook up with Manager l-'red Clarke who has pocketed and gone to "Ch! to join his employer in some real sleuthing. Clarke also has affidavits of a sensational nature and both Pirate officials may prepare supplements following their arrival in Chicago. Organized ball ha3 not been sleeping over this Federal League business. Agents of the invaders have been under espionage and it is remarkable how their movements have been covered.

Correspondence of a damaging nature, not intended for the prying eyes of organized ball, has fallen into the hands of the enemy and detectives played no small part in gathering up vide we. Clarke Offered Managerial Berth. Some ball players have gone so far as to aid organized ball in preparing its defense. Some Federal 3League players. ho were pioneers with the invaders and are now out of jobs, have supplied the Rational Commission with data tending to prove thai the Feds in their brief career have proved quite as tyrannical as they ever tried to make organized bail appear.

Detective agencies have handled the situation for organized ball and if claims of major league magnates count for anything the suit against the commission will be turned into one grand boomerang. To make a long story short some ball players have shown that they know how to turn state's evidence. President jDreyfuss only laughed yesterday afternoon as he held up a packet of documents and said: "These will give them something to think about." The Pirate owner would not divulge the nature of the affidavits and evidence. He did recite in detail some of the efforts and pressure brought locally to have his nen jump. From his conversation it developed that on the arrival of the Pirates in St.

Louis for their final series on September 1, almost every man on the dub, including Manager Clarke, was fipproached by Fielder Jones and other Federal League agents. Gibson and Adams bluntly told the Federal missionaries that they had signed 1H15 Pirate contracts and did care to be both Amateurs Will Box for Titles at A. A.
