HAMe(HT/ j- — , L / | _ 1 FEDS AGAIN BUBY ; SIGN CHARLEY DEAL Plan Big Meeting in the East With the Minor League Owners Special to The Telegraph New York, Jan. 30. —President J. A. Gilmore, of the Federal League yes terday held a long conference with R. B. Ward, president of the Brooklyn Federal League Club. Later on he met Charles Deal, third baseman of the Boston world's champions and announced that Deal had signed a two-year contract to play with the St. Louis Federals. Charlie Deal won fame in the world's series last fall by stepping into the breech at third base after Smith was injured and made the jump because of a disagreement over sal ary. Manager Stallings set the price j he thought Deal was worth, naming a slight advance over his salary of last season, and President Gaffney said ho would not. increase it. It is under stood Deal was told every club In the National league had waived claim to his services. The case of Leslie Mann, outfielder, is similar to that of Deal. He is dis satisfied with a proposed Increase in salary, and a few days ago told Presi dent Gaffney he would join the Fed erals. Gilmore stated that his trip East was principally for the purpose of at tending a meeting of club owners and other interested parties in New Eng land which will be held at New Haven to-morrow for the purpose of estab lishing a Federal minor league. FRATERNITY MAKES KICK Not in Favor of Making American Association .Major Body Special to The Telegraph New York, Jan. 30.—President David L. Fultss, of the Baseball Play ers' Fraternity, announced last night it was not likely that the organization of players would approve of the pro motion of the American Association Class AA to a major league standing by dropping the draft rule. Mr. Fultz pointed out that if the American Association cities could sus tain a major league standard and pay major league salaries there would be no question about the matter. But it they were not able to keep up a major league standard, which is hardly prob able, it would mean that the players would be bottled up in the league, with no chance of advancement to the major leagues. President Fultz said that if the draft rule is suspended the clubs would be at liberty to sell any of their players they saw fit, and this condi tion would not be popular with the baseball public in the different cities. RELEASE "JOSH" DEVORE Special to The Telegraph Boston, Mass., Jan. 30.—"Josh" De vore, termed the "luckiest man in baseball" because of his connection with the New York Giants and later with the Boston Braves when each team won the world's championships, was given an unconditional release by the Boston Nationals to-day. A de sire to allow him to sell bis services In the best market was given as the reason for the release of the little out fielder. Devore has played also with with Cincinnati and Philadelphia teams of the National League.

After Immense suc cesses with the Ziglieid's Follies, Jo seph Bart's great comedy novelty en titled "The Telephone Tangle," has taken to the vaudeville stage. The comedy of this attraction will appeal to all classes, for it deals with en tanglements ip telephone service and most everybody who lias ever used the | telephone will understand these mix ups. Owing to the fact that next week Is anniversary' week at the Orpheum, the management made an unusual ef fort to make the bill a pleasing one. Accordingly. Brlndamour, the Handcuff King, who, six years ago, plunged into the icy waves of the Susquehanna off Walnut street ridge, was secured to add his turn as the added attraction of a bill that inaugurates the Orpheum's eighth year. What Mr. Brlndamour will do next week is a secret. His of fering this year is far different from that In which ho appeared here before, but nevertheless. It may be described as a sensation. The three Leigh tons, who were favorites here before, will add smiles to the bill with their brand new comedy, while the Ray Dooley Trio will run them a close second as mirth winners.—Advertisement.
