Having Hard Time to Agree on Han
to Head National League
Many Names Are
Suggested.
NEW YORK, Dec. J3. The dispo
sition of tho controversy which has
arisen over the selection of a presi
dent for the national league is af
fording much discussion here today
pending the meeting of the baseball
magnates who will met to choose the
man to Till the position held for so
many years by the lato Harry Pul-linm.
Barney Drefus, president of the
champion Pittsburg club, and Garry
Herrmann of Cincinnati, today de
nied the truth of the rumors that they
would forsake tho national league and
cast their lots with the rival Amer
ican organization in teh event of tho
leection of John M. Ward to the
presidency. Herrman is known to
favor the candidacy of acting presi
dent, neydler, who was placed in
temporary charge of the affair's of
the league following Pullinn's death.
The meeting is scheduled for to
morrow. It is rumored that if Hey
dler is not chosen upon the first bal
lot, Herrmann and others of his sup
porters will proopse the name of a
man who has not yet been mentioned
in connection with the position.
