BUFFALO. N. ., Feb. 26. There will
toe a Federal League club In Newark)
H. J. In 1915, no tnnttor what Is the out
come of the legal battle bclnff waged by
the former stockholders, of the Kansas
City Federal Club to halt tho transfer of
the team to the Jersey town.
"If we can't do nnythlnff else wo'll
transfer some other club to Newark," snld
one of the leaders of tho Federal League,
which Is holding Hh session hero. It was
intimated that tho Indianapolis team
might be tho one shifted, In case of
necessity.
The Federal League magnates are wor
Tlcd by the Injunction proceedings of tho
Kansas City folks, despite their state
ments that tho matter wilt bo adjusted
amicably within a short time. The legal
action of tho Kansas City people today
hatted the. plans of tho magnates, who
planned to draft the schedule today.
The magnntes met In secret session
prior to the regular "get together" meet
ing and the Kansas City-Newark situa
tion was discussed from every angle.
The magnates after the session declared
'that If a battle In the courts was forced
JUpon them they could demonstrate very
tnjlckly that their notion In transferring
the franchise from Kansas City was Justi
fied becauso of the failure of the Kan-ns
City officials to live up to the league's
demands.
However, the magnates rfro doing every
thing possible to straighten out the tangle
without any delay, which -uoutd halt their
1915 plans.

The Golfer's Requiem
(By our own It. L. Stevenson.)
Under the wide and starry tky
Dig the grave and let me lie.
Otadly I've lived and gladly die,
Far from the world of strife.
These be the lines you arave tor m:
"Here he lies where he wants to be
Here he lies by the Nineteenth Tee
AYhere he's lied all through his life."
We see where the State Legislature of
Texas has passed a racing bill, reviving
that sport In the Lone Star Common
wealth. The racing game Is beginning to edge
back in other directions, which shows
at which queer angles the pendulum ot
sport often MWlngs, Some years ago rac
ing was popular and boxing was heavily
under the general ban. In Tennessee,
for example, no one ever thought that
racing would ever be chased out or that
boxing would ever be revived, Yet the
State Legislature attached the can to
the so-called Sport of Kings and shortly
afterward legalized boxing matches.
Public opinion often rolls up In waves
and then recedes In equal bulk. It is
hard to say Just what the esteemed pub.
lis wants, for the eoteemed public too
often doesn't know Itself.
