J/8 After the Winners Quit Baseball Anti-Trust Case Is Progressing Former Officials of Old Baltimore Federal League Club Testify in Suit for $900,000 Damages Against Majors. Washington, March 26.—Testimony ap-1 j>arently designed to prove organized baseball a monopoly within the meaning of the Sherman anti-trust act, was intro-1 duced today in the trial in the District of Columbia supreme court of the dam-1 age suit of the Baltimore Federal league club against the National and American leagues and certain officials of the form-' er Federal league. The Baltimore club is seeking to re cover damages of $900,000. Counsel for the Baltimore club exam-] iued two witnesses today. F. Otto Knabe, assistant manager of the Chica go dub of the National league and for-; merly manager of the Baltimore Feder als. and L Edwin Goldman, former di rector of the complainant's club. The former said he had signed numer ous players who came to the Baltimore club and that the club was compelled to offer unusually large salaries. This was due he said, to realization by the players that they were going to a new organiz ation and fear tfuit if anything happened to the new venture they might find it extremely difficult to return to the ranks of organized baseball and might even be out of employment for the rest of their professional lives. Both witnesses were asked many ques tions regarding the reserve clause ill the contracts of professional baseball play ers. Goldman asserting that it was true by these clauses the organization main tained control of players from one season to another. In response to questions regarding the relative value of baseball players, Gold man gave it as his opinion that actually there were not enough real first class ball players in the country to form one team. 11«' explained the system thru which players are purchased and drafted, and agreed on cross examination that the Federal league on paying big salaries to National and American league stars who jumped to the Federals, did not have to take into consideration the original draft price of the individuals. "We would have been glad of the op portunity to draft men, however," lie added, "and of course pay fur them ac cordingly." George Wharton Pepper, counsel for organized baseball interests, asked the witness whether he considered that part of the salary paid professional baseball players was given them in consideration of the reservation the clubs held upon their services for the next reason. The examining attorney asked the witness whether he considered that the rules and regulations of organized base ball regarding relations between the va rious clubs did not in effect work to prevent rich clubs from buying out the 1 oor ones. In reply the witness said a rich club could get certain ad vantages by reason of its wealth, but that it would not be good business for one club to have playing for it all the really first class players.
