THERE ARE BIG DOINGS'
IN BASEBALL WORLD
New York, Dec. 7. With the air
Oill of vague rumors and war talk.
the leading spirits of toe world of
(Sjirganlzed baseball held an aoimated
Tcouncil at the Waldorf-Astoria to
day, with side skirmishes at the Vic
toria and several other hostelrlea
where the magnates oi the big and
little leagues are wont to congregate.
It Is a good safe bet that baseball
history will be made as a result of
the several meetings on this week,
beglnninr today with the meeting of
the NatiOil Commission. The Amer
ican and National lQies hold their
annual meetings here tomorrow, but
ih':Qromte to If exceedingly lame
affair in comparison with the ses
sion of the .NQonal Commission, at
which a delegation from the minor
leagues will present a firm demand
for ivitiie desired changes In the na-
tlonal agreement. q

prising the American Association and
the Eastern League were on hand
early at the Waldorf-Astoria today In
readiness to confer with the National
Commission In regard to the plan for
mulated at the recent Buffalo confer
ence through which the club owners
of these two leagues hope to be plac
ed in a class by themselves, where
they will be unhampered by the re
strictions Imposed upon tile smaller
organizations and. In effect, will
place them on a level with the two
big leagues.
Leaders In the Amerlcnn Asocla
tlon and Eastern League uffect a
confidence in the result of the con
ference with the governing body.
Others who are usually pretty well
informed as to the situation do not
believe that the two "rebel" organi
zations are likely to have such an
easy time In gaining their demands.
They point out that the changes de
manded would destroy the very foun
dation of the national agreement and
consequently are not likely to be giv
en any serious consideration by the
National Commission. Some are In-1
cllned to believe that the two big nil
nors may kick over the traces If their
demands are refused, but the major
ity opinion Inclines to the belief that
there will be no baseball war for the
reason that the heads of the Ameri
can Association and Eastern League
are among the best experienced men
In baseball today and none know bet
ter the fate that has Invariably pur
sued the outlaw baseball organiza
tions. WOOi BAWINO,
