Kulx. president of the Tlase Ball Players' fra ternity, ha addressed a special com munication to the members of the or ganisation calling attention to the com plicated contractual relations that will exist between Federal league players and magnates under the proposed peace agree ment, Involving organized snd Inde pendent base ball Interest. Mr. Kults has outlined the situation In part as fol lows: "Although the ihc agreement between organised ball and the Federal league has not been maduillc authoritatively, It ram safely be said that organized ball will not assume the long-term Idei'ul league contract, except where It desires to doso. l.lkrly Hespert Then.. "It will probably respect thee con tracts, but will not necessarily assume them. In other words. It an organized hall club desires the services of a player who htis signed a long-term contract. It will make terms with his Federsl league owner and will then be obliged to assume the contract In its entirety. This the player ahould be careful to see to, as the club hsve no right to compel him to sign a le favorable contract' than the one he .already ha. Where, however, no organised eiub desti-es.to assume the con tract tif any" particular player, tnere win be, In my .opinion, no obligation on' the part of the. organised' club to do so. The player. In thl situation will "have only hi Federal league owner to look to. "In order to preserve their rights all Player ahould Bet ) ennasnt nf their J Federal league owners before elgnlng w:h sn organised ball club. If they oo not do this they may lose the advantage of their retleral league contract without gaining any corresponding advantate tinder their new agreements. "The situation I a very complicated one and players should be careful to get competent advice before entering Jnto anv new contractual relations." WAIVER RULE NOT FOR THE FEDERAL PLAYERS ST. IXll'IS. Jan. It.-Flnlder A. Jones, manager of the combined 8t. Louis American and Federal league teams, an nounced here tonight that hi summls slon of a list of former Federal player for waiver by various American and National league clubs was not an ac knowledgement that such waiver Is a pre-requtslta to the disposition of Fed ersl players. "On the contrary," Jones said, "I feel confident that the St. Ioula Federal league players are not subject to tha waiver rule, of Organised base ball. 1 requested tha American and National league clubs to waive on certain players, merely to avoid possible complications, inasmuch aa the application of the waiver rule to Federal league player haa not yet been definitely settled by the Na tional commission."

Drawn for The Bee by George McManus Exodus of "Bums" Follows the Police War on Outcasts "Out of town, bum!" This tart phrase, gentle readers of Ne braska's greatest family dnily. Is duly stamped with the approval of George Ade and other masters of the modern lan guages. So Thomas Paughman, Harry Buford. John Coffey, Sllns Brown and Joseph Uell, policemen, who escorted a half hun dred of well-dressed "vagrants" and their women to the Union station, where they were banished from Omaha, felt perfectly safe In uttering the exclamation. Early Monday morning Police Commis sioner Al Kugel got up on the "wrong side of the bed," and It appeared after ward that Chief Dunn did, too. Anyway, they got their heads together and a few minutes later the police were making the rounds of the cheaper hotels. women who have been "beating" the police court with straw bonds and by ether legal means were Bnaked out of their lairs and carted off to Jail. Their perfumed lovers were next carted to the cells nnd locked up. The police lectured thus: . ' Now, you girls know you've been keep ing these men, and you men know just wnat the harsh word Is that describes you. We know it, too. Judge Foster knows It. But somehow or other, In spite of all we do to put you on the bum, you're out of jail and doing the very things you should not. So we're going to send you out of town. ' Those of you who have enough money to buy a railroad ticket are released now. The rest of you can either scrape It tip .or do a double forty-five In the county Jail. Which?" .Somehow or other, nearly, all secured rsllroud tickets, mornly to Sioux City. The patrol wagon hauled them to tho depot under guard, and they were put on a train leaving at 10 p clock.
