DECISION SHARPLY CRITI
- CIZINQ CHICAGO CLUB
CITY WILL ENFORCE A LAW
The Commission Announce That
Hereafter AH Tickets For All the
Games During Entire Series WUI bs
Handled by Them.
CINCINNATI, Dtc 19-The Na
tional Baseball Commission hi
landed down its decision in regarding
the sale of tickets and scalping dur
ing the world's championship series
in Chicago. In its report the com
mission says: ''-,'':'
"From the finding of facts as shown
we are of the opinion that the Chi
cago club is deserving of the severest
criticism and censure for the manner
in which they handled the sale of the
tickets during the last world's series,
and that they must be held responsi
ble for the great annoyance they
caused many patrons of the game ia
Chicago, and that the complaint)
tied with the commission by the
Chicago public were justified and
warranted. j
"As we have already -stated, there
was no direct charge made or proof
offered that anyone connected with
the Chicago club as an employe was
in collusion with the scalpers, yet, at
the same time we call Mr. Murphy's
particular attention to finding No. 10
regarding sales to scalpers and re
quest that he make a further ex
amination of this particular feature of
the case to ascertain, if possible, just
in what manner these tickets were se
cured by these persons.
"We believe it will be a very hard
matter to prevent tickets during these
aeries reaching the hands of scalpers,
even without collusion on the part of
anyone connected with the winning
clubs, unless the city authorities pass
proper laws and ordinances to prevent
scalping of tickets, and for that rea
son the commission recommends that
an effort be made by every major
league to secure the necessary legisla
tion in their respective cities for this
purpose.
The commission announces that
hereafter all the tickets for all the
games during the entire series will be
Bandied by them, and that an attempt
will be made to adopt rules with ref
erence to their sale to prevent not
only such tickets reaching the hands
ef scalpers, if possible, but to afford
the general public every opportunit,
to get them quickly at several points
and at prices not in excess of those
Sxed by the commission."
