Dreyfuss Keeps Clarke.
NEW TORE, Dec. 10. The National
league of Professional Baseball Clubs
closed its annual meeting here this
afternoon after having been in session
Intermittently since Tuesday. Con
siderable time was devoted to a fur
ther discussion of the proposed rule
which would prevent the withdrawal
of waivers once requested. The weaker
clubs of the senior league were eager
for its adoption, but the resolution was
tabled for final action at the next
meeting in February.
President Barney Dreyfuss. of the
Pittsburg club, and Secretary John
Ileydler, of the league, were appointed
a committee to draft the 1915 playing
schedule. It also was decided to con
tinue the pension paid to the sisfcer of
the late Harry Pulliam. former president
of the league. No action was taken on
the proposition to increase the world's
series games from seven to nine or 11.
end there was no menticn made of
Charles W." Murphy and his connection
with the Chicago club.
Baa Johnson Busy,
President Ban Johnson was not in
evidence at the gathering of the
National League magnates, and it was
understood that the American League
executive was devoting his time to an
effort to complete the sale of the New
Tork Tankees to Colonel Jacob Ruppet.
It was reported that' Johnson would
confer with the Washington American
League club officials later in the week
relative to beginning a legal fight In
an effort to retain the services of
Pitcher Walter Johnson, who recently
Jumped to the Federal League.
The managers of the National
League clubs were still endeavoring
late at night to strengthen their teams
by sales, purchases or trades. Several
deals appeared to be partly consumated
and conferences were being held which
Involved the-playing future of several
stars.
Charles Dooin, of the Philadelphia
club, was closeted with John J. Mc
Graw and Pat Moran, managers, re
spectively, of the New Tork Giants and
Philadelphia Nationals. It was gen
erally believed that Dooin would join
the Giants next Spring, while .the
Phillies would obtain the services of
several Giants in the trade.
Hrrxog Hangs Onto His Job.
Charles Herzog, after several confer
ences with Herrmann, signed a con
tract to manage the Cincinnati club
for two years more. The salary clause
was left blank, leaving It to the judg
ment of the chairman of the National
Commission to fill in the right figures.
Fred Clarke, manager of the Pirates,
said that he and Barney Dreyfuss had
reached a satisfactory agreement.
The International League club own
ers, after a short session In the after
noon, adjourned until tomorrow morn
ing. It was reported that no further
progress In the reconstruction of the
circuit could be made until the reports
from the various leagues Involved were
received. It appeared to be concensus
of opinion, however, that Syracuse,
New York, and Richmond, Va.. would
replace Jersey City and Baltimore in
the 1915 playing circles.

FEDS SURE TO SEEK SOME
Star Pitcher of Giants Says Lean
Year Is Ahead for Baseball Club
Owners and They Must Keep
All Good Men.
BY CHRISTY ItATHEWSOS.
(Star Pitcher New York Giants.)
NEW YORK, Dec. 10. (Special.)
McGraw has more recruits going South
with him next Spring than he ever took
to a training camp before because he is
preparing to rebuild his team as much
as he can. More than 60 men will re
port in Marlin. The proposed 20-player
limit rule would have meant that he
would prune out 30 of these players,
and. in the 30 turned back, there would
be bound to be some promising talent.
This would be only throwing players
in the way of the Federals, for the out
law league will surely have scouts hov
ering around the Spring camps of the
big league teams waiting to see what
recruits are dropped. Once a youngster
has been with a big league club, even
if it is only briefly in a Spring camp,
he always hates to go back to the mi
nors. The Feds know this, and the re
cruits turned away from organized
baseball, are bound to rate the Federal
League berth as more desirable than
one in the "bushes."
Therefore, I think It would be, wise
for all the big league clubs to earrv
Just as many men. even on the bench.
as tneir finances will stand, in order
to keep the best of the recruits out of
tho Federal League. It looks like an
other hungry year for the owners any
way you take It.
A newspaper recently printed a story
that ball clubs in all the leagues would
stop at cheaper hotels than they have
been accustomed to, and that players
would be allotted upper berths well
as lower ones next season. Also, that
it any Jumps are made in the daytime,
the teams would ride in day coaches.
In other words, the clubs Intend tr out
down traveling expenses all along the
line.
"How about it. "Mac"?" I asknl Mc
Graw.
"Not for me," he answered. "No team
can play good ball if the men err, on
the field tired out from a tough ride
in a day coach or if they have not had
good food. I'm for spending the money
on food and lodging, and it will come
DacK in the kind of ball Dlaved bv vour
club." '
"Mac" was the first bi league
manager to begin to patronize the bet
ter hotels around the circuit. He got
his team into lorae of the best hotels
in the country which had always re
fused to take ball teams before, be
cause he insisted on the good behavior
oi nis players. He was also the first
manager to force each man on his club
to eat at the hotel where the 4eam was
stopping.
Several years ago there used t ho a
practice in the league of allowinsr the
players so much a day for eating, and
many iinanciers would eat in cheap
restaurants where the food wn hart
and make money on the allowance. Mc
Graw found some of his players doing
mis auuui. iour years ago, and they
were also playing bad ball because the
poor food put their stomachs out of
shape. He soon stopped them doing
that. It's nice to be a Giant. We are
sure that there won't be anv cut in
traveling expenses while McGraw is
alive.

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec 10. (Spe

Coast Leaguer who discredits the cir
culated stories that he has hurdled to
the Federal League. In a letter re
ceived at local baseball headquarters
today the Seals crack shortstop says
that he has kept his promise to J. Cal
Ewing that he will not do business with
another club until he has first given
San Francisco word. His letter in
substance reads:
"Relative to your inquiry about my
intentions for next season I can say
positively that I have done nothing so
far. I have made no secret that I pre
fer to play ball on the Pacific Coast,
because my business relations have al
ways been plesant and also because
I enjoy the climate. I desire to have
an lntervew with Henry Berry, who,
I understand, now owns the San Fran

reach an agreement so that I can re
turn to the Seals."

having said that Corhan was under

First Game Is Near.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
Corvallis, Or., Dec. 10. (Special.)
Joy and gloom mingle among Oregon
Agricultural College basketball fans
after a week ot practice on the part
of the candidates for the team. The
Joy is occasioned by the fact that
there seems to be a wealth of husky
freshmen who are eligible and by the
obvious enthusiasm and "pep" which
is predominating. The gloom is
caused by the failure of two members
of last year's team to appear for prac
tice. f
"Ade" Seiberts, the ' forward who
made . his entry into college basket
ball in the middle of last season, and
who was a sensation with the Aggie
team, has not reported. Seiberts is
employed in the college business of
fice part of each day, and is unable
to devote any time to practice.
Blllle Also ot to Play.
Brewer Billie Is the second regular
to retrench this year. Billie also feels
that he cannot give any time to the
work. Be is carrying a heavy course,
and is behind with his work as a re
sult of the football season.
To select from the scores of candi
dates at hand a half dozen of first
team caliber and to make two of
these good enough for regular work
in the holes left vacant, is the task
that confronts Coach Stewart. He has
turned all of the freshmen over to As
sistant Coach May, and has arranged
a series of interclass games. No at
tempt will be made to select a college
squad until after the interclass series
is over.
A hundred men have turned out for
practice each night this week, and of
these 75 are freshmen. Naturally
Coach May has not yet arrived at any
definite conclusion regarding the best
men on his squad.
Tea Freshmen Show Ability.
In the fragmentary games which
have been played thus far, however,
the following ten freshmen have
loomed up as men of more than ordi
nary ability: Ray, Phillips, Henry,
Miller, Bissette, Butts, Allen, Hoer
llne. Stlnson, and Hogan.
The Aggie team which "Doc has
been working this week has been com
posed of Captain King and Dewey,
forwards; Blagg, center, and Mix and
"Lefty" Jordan, guards.

ball has reached a pitch unprecedented
In recent athletic annals. Several
days this week, it is estimated, be
tween 300 and 400 men took part in
games of basketball between the open
ing of the gym in the morning and
the closing of the doors in the even
ing. The first college game of the sea
son in all probability will be played
next Friday night, the Aggies having
accepted a challenge from a group of
players at the University of Oregon,
including Koch, Sims, Parsons and
