Economy Plan of
lower Salaries and Player
Limit Among Proposals
Continued War Tax Favored and a Fine of $500
for All Teams Which Bcgin Training Trips Be?
fore 3Iarch 23 ?
By Charles A. Taylor
Economy and retrenchment were the passwords at thc meeting of thc
Xational League, which dawdled along for the better part of the after?
noon yesterday at the Waldorf. While these passworda were being ex
change I in the inner sanctum, the scribes of baseball clogged the corridors
e| the tamous hostelry, trying to find one of those old-fashioned leather
backed armchairs to repose in while the "Hooveritea" confabbed.
But, just about thc time thc afore-'
uidscribes wero settling back for their
fifth nap of the waning afternoon, they
Werc- suddenly snatched from their
dreamlar.d by the announcement that
nnally tho big moguls were ready to
g8y something which might be worth
the printing.
' And this, put briefly, is just what the
National League Soviet proclaimed as
its platform, to be presented to the
joint meeting of the two majors at the
Biltmorc this afternoon:
The maximum monthly salary for
all National League teatna shall hc
Sl 1,000, exclnsivc of managcr's sal?
ary.
Any club which cmbarks on a
spring training trip before March 23
shall be penalized to the amount#of
?300.
The limit a* to number of players
on any one club shall not be more
than twenty-one.
The continuance of the war taxes
which have been collected since the
Kaiser started the world rumpus is
recomnsended.
The share of the winning clubs of
the two leagues which take part in
thc world series shall be turned into
thc league treasury on a 50 per cent
basis, instead of the customary 25.
The players' pool in the world se
ries shall be divided on a percentage
basis.
No recall of a player in the minors
shall be permitted after the first
garne of the season has been played.
An "outside", man should head the
National t ommission.
The reduction of the amount that
each club may spend monthly in the
way of salaries means that the stars
of the frame the Ty Cobbs, the Speak?
ers, the Alexanders and all their ilk --
will have to suffer material subtrac
tions on their old pay checks. The
fabulous contracts of the past will go
a-glirnmerir.g if the two leagues in
joint session to-day indorse this radi
cai innovation. The question naturally
looms up, what will be done with such
men as Herzog, who is working, or
rather playing, on r; contract that has
a year to run, Again, it is all up to
thc big show-down of to-day.
According to John A. Heydler, some
of the magnatts were in favor of a
lower limit than the $11,000 monthly.
Among those who opposed the $11,000
hr-vt wer? Charles E. Stoneham, the
ticw president of the Giants, and Mag
istrate Francis X. McQuade, the new
treasurer of the New York club. 'Will?
iam Veeck, vice-president of thc Chi?
cago Cubs, joined the Xew Yorkers
in their opiios ion to the plan, but i
their words fell on those proverbial I
deal car-.
Book* May T> Producrd
Mr. hV. Her added in this connection
that in accordance tand taken
by the league he was einpowered to
nudi: th of any of the clubs at
all times to ascertain whether the rule .
was bem? violated. "If any clu'j breaks
thu law," -aid Mr. Heydler. "it is liable
to n fine of $5,00 I "
The matter of the coming schedule
will bv finally decided to-day. but judg?
ing from the vote on this matter yes-1
tcrday thc N oni will acquiesce in '
the sc!; ? - playing season
to 140 games. On this question also i

Hal Vollmer
Has Old Speed
As Swimmer
Former College Star De
feats Giebel, Jeliffe and
Buck at New York A. C.
By A. C. Cavagnaro
Hul Vollmer, winner of nzany college
and amateur championships in the
colors of the New York Athletic Club
j and Columbia University, ia the invin
I cible swimmer of old. He decisively
! proved this in easily capturing the
| lOO'-yard special scratch swim in the
I aquatic carnival held bv the New lxirk
I Athletic Club last night.
I It was Vollmer's first appearance in
: open -competition for almost one year,
| as he is at the Pelham Bay Naval
! Training Station. His great display
j of speed carried ? him home in the
I smnshing time of 5G 1-5 seconds.
There never was a question as to
; the ultimate victor, for Vollmer hcld
the van from the start. He was op
; posed by three sterling rivals in Leo
' Giebel and Leeming Jelliffe, clubmates,
! nnd Norman Buck, of the Illinois Ath?
letic Club. Vollmer "flew" along with
; his inimitable crawl stroke, gradually
' increasing his advantage, to win by al
i most four yards. Buck, who showed
I great speed for seventy five yards,
; weakened thereafter. to fail back to
! last place, while Giebel and Jelliffe
, fought it out for second place, the
i first named winning by inches.
Unexpectedly good performances
i were witnesse'd fc all the competitions.
Arthur McAleenan, former national
and intercollegiate champion, was at
his best in the fancy dive, which he
won by a comfortable margin. Cyril
Carroll also overcame the handicap in
the plzznge for distance, while J. B.
Kane, New York Athletic Club, capt?
ured the fifty-yard novice event by
inches.
The summary follows:

Al^-nan, New Vorlt A. ('. (scratch), wltb UK./M

Erasmus Hall Boys
Enter Swim Meel
With Confidence
The swimming team of Erasmus Hall I
High School of Brooklyn (which is cap
(ained by Clarencc Ross, fcels confident
of winning the point honors in the an?
nual individual championship competi
tion of the Public Schools Athletic
League, which will be held in the City
College tank this evening. Judging by
the performance of the various teams
in this city for the past season. it ap
pears as if the Brooklyn team will win
by a big margin.
Entries for the title events have been
received from De Witt Clinton, Com- |
merce, Stuyvesant, Boys' High, Manual |
Training r.nd Curtis, in addition to
Lrasmus Hall. In all, more than forty
cntrante are scheduled to start in the ,
six events on the programme.
It is almost a foregone conclusion
that a number of present records will .
bc smashed. It has been.an unusual ?
iriciden* in the dual interborough series I
just ended to see the present standards I
for one or more events broken by the
contesting swimmers. ln this tourney,
Krasmus Hall captured the team chazzi- '
pionship by winning all of its seven
meets.
The Erasmus Hall boys bank heavily
on winning the !i00-yard relay race,
which carries with it an award of cight
points. Ross appears unbeatable in the
220-yard swim, as in the qualifying
rounds on last Tuesday he covered this
distance iti 2:'M, which is more than
six seconds better than the record.
Joe Burrill is expected to prove n
stubborn opponent to beat in the 100
yard swim, while McMullcn and Ros
| setti should also add to the Erasmus
total.

Bull Terrier Provea He I?
Ueal White Man's l)og
From the way entries are pouring
| in for the Bull Terrier Club's show in
I Madison Square Garden, February 18,
j it is evident that New York und Can
' adian fanciers know the bull terrier is
"a white dog and a white rnan's dog."
! Major Clair Fostcr, who will eome
: from Wahhington to judge, will evi
dently be faced by the greatest CQllcc
\ tion of bull tcrrieiH ever Keen in Amer
? ica. The latest flyers to be entered is
! Fieldatone Liberty Boy, a puppy owned
i by the Rev. F. J. Heaney, of Pocantico
| Bills.

\ Faultbtso, which last year was placed
best oi aU breedi in the Garden show,
1,700 dog* being benohed, and his

iin LEONARD, who recently figured in the trade be
J^/ tween the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees
wrnch transferred him from the Hub to the metropolis,
called at the Yankee offices yeaterday afternoon and announced
thac he was ready to do business. This sets at rest the report that
Dutch" was holding out for a portion of the cash which Manager
Huggins threw in Harry Frazee's lap to cinch the deal. There is no
need to dwell on the prowess of Leonard as a boxman. He will be
a welcome boost to the pitching staff of the two colonels, Ruppert
and Huston.
Boxing News and Notes
_Bv EKED HAWTHORNE_
Benny Leonard and Johnny Dundee,'
who threaten lo punch each other's
noses in the ring of the Newark
Spcrtsmen's Club next Monday night,
are going to hold a dress rehearsal at
their training quarters this afternoon '
for the benefit of a distinguished
gathering, including us and a few other
persons of world-wide prominence,
Aunt Eleanor Ann.
Among other messages cxpressing
rcgret at their inability to be present
on this notable occasion. were the fol?
lowing, received late last niglTt via
mentai telepathy:
President Wilson May I not e\
press my sorrow at being unable to \
attend your receptions to-morrow? i
If it were possible to sneak out of !
the side door of thc Peace Palace at
Versailles 1 would gladly avail my
self of the opportunity, .but I am go?
ing to rcferee the main bout over
here, and it looks like a hard baltic.
Although it is against the ethics,
perhaps I may tip you off that Bat
tling Hoche is going to bc knocked
out before thc third round.
Sinceroly,
WOODROW WILSON.
Lloyd George ? "Impossible to
watch you boys work out to-morrow
for your bout. I've been watching
fights for four years now, but I
surely would like to be at the ring
side in Newark when you two start
swinging them from the floor. Kid
Hun was flattened in the fourth
round here by Young Allies, but ia
making an awful howi for a recount.
"Very truly,
"LLOYD GEORGE."
Premier Clemenceau?"If you fol?
lows would only postpone your bout
until some time next summer I
should be yiad indeed to occupy a
ringside seat. The German heavy
weight champion slipped a horseshoe
in his glove in thc bout with Ihe

Demands of Association for Reforms
Ultimatum To Be Present
cd to Joint Conference
of Big Leagues To-day
By W. J. Macbeth
A split is threatened in the happy
family of organized baseball. The
minor leagues are prepared to go out
on strike against the National- and
American circuits if certain suggestcd
reforms are not forthcoming im?
mediately. Indeed, thc National Asso?
ciation, which is the governing body
of the minor leagues, has issued an
ultimatum to this effect which w.ll bc
presented to the join; conference of
the two major organizations to be hgld
this afternoon at 2 o'clock at the Hotel
Biltmore.
This note of impending war was
sounde'd after a somewhat lengthy de
liberation on the part of the "bushers"
at the Hotel Biltmore yesterdav after?
noon. at which ten minor circuits had
represontation. The ultlmatu.n, which
calls for the alternative of an open
break, gives the major league club
owners until 6 o'clock Friday night to
accept the conditions demanded. These
conditions are four in number and will
be presented in the following official
phraseology:
Claims of the Minors
1. Major league clubs may arbi
tranly purchase one plaver from
each club of the Class A A leagues
for S7,500' between November 1 atid
-Novemoer 10 of each year. In the
event of the player not being re
tained by the major league purchas
ing club for the ensuing baseball
year outnght title is to be resold to
the minor league club from which
purchased for the sum of $2,500 In
event this (minor) club waives
priority player is to be offered to all
clubs in the same classification ex?
cept of course to the club that sold
him. and in the event that.no club
in that organization or class of or?
ganization want3 him he is to be of
ferec respectively to the clubs of
Class A Class B, Class C and Class D
rnting for the respective prices 0f
$500, $300, $150- and $75 In the
event no minor club desires services
of player major league club may dis
?es?r ?d services in any manncr
"2. A new governing board to be
formed to administer rules and laws
tor bcth major and minor leagues
alike, suceeeding present form of
iVitionnl Commission. Major and
minor leagues to have enua! reprc?
sentation on this body. All disputes
involving major and minor leagues
only to bc decided by said governing
board, which shall be comprised of
one major league representative one
, minor league representative and a
third party, as chairman. to be se?
lected by the mutual consent of the
respective major and minor league
representatives. The National As?
sociation board to have original ex
clusive and final rights to settle all
disputes between minor club mem?
bers or such players, and to handle
; all players, contracts and to dccide
; on penalties and all other association
, attairs.
"3. All major league players who
i are waived out of the respective big
! leugues must be sold to Class AA
league clubs for $1,000 each. In the
event that more than one minor
league club of such classification pre
sents a claim to title, the matter
shall be decided by lot. In case no
Class AA club claims such player he
is to be offered to clubs of Class A
lor $500, to clubs of Class B for
Brief Bits Al
Everybody who is and ever was in
baseball clogged the corridors and cafe
of the Waldorf yesterday.
One of the interesting confabs that
were too numerous to mention took
place between Johnny Evers and old
Dr. Stahl, the pill plunger. Both
agreed that baseball needed a reinstal
lation of pep. And then Al Munroe
Elias, the strategic statistician, butted
into the "party' and?well, there was
the longed-for pep.
Dick Rudolph, a pitcher from The
Bronx, tried the new subway labyrinth
for the first time since New Year's
Eve and played host on one of the
Waldorf lounges to several Bronxioians
who were all excitcd over the project
to launch a ball nine above the Harlem.
Uncle Wilbert Robinson had a nice
little chat with his former outfieldcr,
Charles "Casey" Stengel, at. one of the
round tables just off the lobby. Uncle
Wilbert would make a deal with Hugo
Bezdek in a minute to get his old gar
dener back if Charles H. Ebbets, Esq.,
gave the proper nod.
George Wiltse sat practically un
noticed and alone in a big chair di
rectly in the path of the heaviest traf?
fic. And yet it is only a few yoar3
back that "Hooks" had all New York
fandom barking at hia heels. Fame
is tleeting, and George fied early.
Tyrus Raymond Cobb wired yester?
day that he was on his way from Au
gusta, Ga., for a conference with Pres?
ident Navin and Manager Jennings of
tlie Tijjers. Hughie Jennings last night
expressed confidence that he would be
able to interest the Georgian Peach af?
ter a short talk.
Certainly the Detroit club has no
idea of parting with the most sensa
tional baseball player of history. The
team is prepared to pay Cobb as liber
ally as could be expected. Ty has no
fault with his present berth, but the
contract under which he was working
has expired, and Ty is no boob of a
business man.
Miller Iluggins, on his way East,
stopped over at Trappe. Md., to have a
chat with J. Franklin Baker, the home
run swatter. The offic.als of tlie Yan
kees had not heard from the midget
manager at a late hour last night, but
were very hopeful that the famed slug
ger wouid be back at his old third-basc
stand.
Russell E. Gardner, a multi-million
cire of St. Louis, admitted yesterday
that he was prepared to bid for the St.
Louis Cardinals, which will be sold at
auction within a few days. It was re?
ported that James C. McGill, owner *f
the Indianapolis club of the American
Association, would bc a partner of Mr?
Gardner in the prospective purchase of
this major league property. Mr. McGill
declared last night that such was not
thc case. He is quite satisfied with
tho Indianapolis venturo. Gardner, if
he buys, will' go it alone.
Long Tom 'Hughes, who has been
pitching ball for the Boston Bruves
Big Baseball Deah
Expected Among
Managers To-day
AS YET during the big base?
ball conferenccs proceed
ing in this city none of the
many big trade* expected has de
veloped, but something startling
may happen beforo another sun
down.
Few of the American League
mganatcs had made their appear
ance before late last night, and
the American League market is
presurnably the more active of
the two majors. Miller Huggins,
manager of the Yankees, arrived
?:ate last night. He declared he
had his cap set for no less than
two high-class outfielders and one
infielder of proved ability. He
cxpects to land all three of these
needed veterans before he leaves
town. Huggins, of course, would
give no inklmg as to the names of
the players coveted, but it is be?
lieved they are now the property
of the Cleveland and Detroit
clubs.
$300 to clubs of Class C for $150 and
to clubs of Class D for $75, respec
tively, in turn.
"4. All clubs in all leagues must
observe respective player limits and
contorm to same on and after tha
opening day of each season."
fhat th.- minor league oporators in?
tend to <ro 'he extreme limit of resur
rect.on if necessary to gain the ends
of the new platform adopted, was evi
(lenced on eyrry harul jast night wh
the little tellows could be found. The
class AA leagues, it was pointed out
could not stand the atrain of draft
oy major league clubs. The loophoie
left for the purchase of one player
for a price uf $7,500 is of course the
old draft idea carried over though not
charactenzed by the name.
Dunn Says Demands Are Fair
Jack Dunn, president of the Balti
|more club of the new International
; League, who has ever been one of the
j chief sponsors of the elimination of
the draft i.rivileges of tho major
j leagues declared the demands of the
i minors absolutely fair and the only
i system possible to save the very grave
minor league situation.
m "The class AA clubs," said Dunn,
can no longer operate at profit at the
old scale of prices. This class of base?
ball has outlived the quarter admis
sion. To give half dollar baseball it is
imperative that these clubs be allowed
tu guard against customarv losses
through the draft, Unless we are al?
lowed to raise our admission prices,
because of the ever-increasing cost of
overhead, we might as well lock up
our parks."
A perusa] of the demands of the
minors would indicate at first sight a
; somewhat one-sided situation with the
httle fellows asking ai! and giving
j little or nothing in return. It will be
I noted that players claimed (or drafted)
; from the big minors would bring
| henceforth $7,500 instead of the former
draft price of $2 500. It will be noted
I also that the prices realized for the
I so long that his grandchildren get a
speeial dispensation to stay out of
school every time he ,is due to enter
the box, occupied two of the choicest
news. Long Tom heard that the
Braves were to be sold and figured he
ought to be on hand to see what be?
came of his old "friend."
Jimmy Sheckard was very much in
evidence flitting here and there just ;
the way he used to flit about years ago
to get under a smash that seemed
bound fenceward for a triple of may
hap a homer. Jt. might be noted for
the benefit of the younger contingent :
that Jimmy was some outficlder in his
day,
Al Schacht, who pitched for the
Giants in Marlin ar.d other Texas
I towns two years ago, was dividing his
| attenrton between the Waldorf and the
j Biltmore. Al thinks he is good enoug#
; for the big show, but is wiiling to take
j a good job with the International or
some other minor as soon as he can
doff his army uniform.
Charley Herzog, ex-Giant and-ex lots ?
of other things in baseballdom, flew
in from his canteloupc farm in Mary
land and denied that he was the "prom?
inent" second baseman mentioned in
the dispatches from thc West who was
being made eyes at by Fred Mitchell
of the Cubs.
Al Mamaux, the boy wonder of the
Dodgcrs, who was the pitching ace of
the Pirates a couple of seasons back,
startied tne inhaDitants of PeacocK
Alley with his customary sartorial
grace and the niftiest benny in sight.
iie called upon Manager \N ilbert Kob
msorf. Mamaux has been working in
an ammunition factory, juggling heavy
sneils, and seems to be ln wonderful
physical form. At present hc is some?
what in the bad graces of the Flatbush
Squire, he having taken French k-ave
of the club eany iast summer to fore
stall the draft.
It is rumored that tho Braves may
change hands before the end of the
meeting, Business Manager Hapgood
i having interested a prospective syn
i dicate of Hub talent for the purchase
j of this franchise, which has been
j somewhat of a white elephant ever
! since James E. Gaffney disposed of it.
j Several different parties were iinked
| up on the proposition in the usual
guessing contest, but without exception
p.euded "nirt guilty."
John J. McGraw, the hustling man?
ager of the Giants, finds himself n
nii-.gnate at last, after a long and brill
iant career. But Mac, like Fred
Mitchell, of the Cuba. is of the mag
nates, not with them. Because of the
fact that he is team manager, the
vice-president of the Giants is not al?
lowed to sit in the council chambers
of his circuit.
Wec Willie Keeler, the Brooklyn real
estate king, made his annual p'ilgrim
age across the bridge to sit in with the
old "Oriole" boys?Uncle Wilbert Roh
inson, Joe Kelley, Hughie Jennings and
John McGraw.
Major Magnates Have Un-'
til 6 P. 31. Friday to Ac-,
cept Conditions Named
turn-bac.ks from the majors would bc
shaved down to the mir.imum. But
the minur league operators argue that
si(cli a system would rid the game of
its worst existing evil, the "farming"
oi players or putting them'out under
terzns of optional recall. Furthermore.
players claimed would not be taken
from minor league clubs during the
heat of the penant races.
Mos; of the major league magnets
refused to discuss this latest ultima
tum from the National Association, by
far the most serious threat that has
emanated from the little fedows since
orjraniKcd baseball's big family was
lirst incorporated under the peace
agreement. At the time the National ,
League meeting adjourr.ed, of course,
no official notifzeation had been pre
sented of the minor leagues' ultima
tum. A few of the big follows, when
given an outline of the demands, were
inclined to believe the matter more or
less a jokc. Most of them thought tho
minor leagues somewhat cheeky to de?
mand so much, while offering so little
:n return.
"Guess we'll have to stakc the mizzor
magnates to the minor leagues," bant- '
ered John J. McGraw. manager and ;
new vice-president of the Ciants.
Colonel Jacob Ruppert, president of
the New York Yankees. alone of the
Jchnson henchmen on hand offered an
opinion.
"I think now the minor leagues get '
more out of.the majors than the majors
could ever hope to get out of the
minora," said the Colonel.
"Personally, 1 am very much opposed
to the elimination of the draft or the .
refutation of tlie optional recall, Good
young ball players must be developed
and cannot bc developed to best ad
vantage by sitting on major league
benches. It is necessarv for major
leabue clubs to be permitted to farm
out certain of their chattels. Therefore,
if it is found imposible to carry on
business with the minor league as
heretofore, the major leagues will have
to start minor leagues of their own."
Imrortant Baseball Meeting
With the impending ultimatum on its I
hands to-day's joint confe-ence of the
National and American leagues, which
will be called at. the Hotel Biltmore at
2 p. m., appears the most important
baseball meeting of the past decade.
As yet it has not. been decided who
will preside. Possibly the honor may go
to Ban Johnson because of his seniority.
The minor league magnates so seri?
ously regard the situation that an effort
will be made to have the many dele?
gates here attend in a body. "As yet
definite arrangemems have not been
made. It is understood that the major '
leagues expect only a small delegation,
presumahly a committee of three, to
present the case of the minors. No one
would wnturc a guess as to what might
develop in case the little follows in
sisted upon attending in a body. It is
the opinion of the minors, of course,
that they can present a much stronger
appeal if permitted the privllege of the
"open house" poliey of procedure.
The American " e.zgue will hold a
meeting this morning at the Hotel Bilt?
more. President Ban Johnson was ex
pected in town yesterday afternoon.
lut up to a late hour had not been
seen.
The minor leagues represcnted at
yesterday's war council of the National
Association were: International, Amer?
ican Association. Pacific Coast. West?
ern, Southern Association, Texas, East?
ern, Northwestern, Central, Virginia
and Western Canadian.
Midshipman Five
Beats Mt. St. Marv
ANNAPOLIS, Md., Jan. 15.- In a
rather slow game of basketball, the
midshipmen defeated Mount St. Mary,
43 to 8, here this afternoon, their ninth
consecutive victory for the season.
The navy lads feel that Swarthmore,
which plays here Saurday, will be the
most difficult opponent of the season
and the most likely to interrupi its
string of victories.
The navy led off with a icam of sub
stitutes, but played its ree-nlars in the
second half. The goal of Hagertv, of
the visitors, in the second half," was
from two-thirds of the way down court.
and was one of the longest ever seen
here.
