NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-The annual

and by o'clock had completed the
greater part of its work. The first prop
OSlClOQ WHICH CdIIl6 DclOlC VIC COlhHlG~
tee was to move the pitchers box to
fifty-five feet from the home plate.
This was voted down on the ground
that. although it might assist the batter
in hitting the ball, the pitchers would
be back so far that it would be easier
for him to keep the bases in view and
would thus retard base running. An
other suggestion was to return to the
old high and low-ball system. This
caused good deal of discussion, and it
was finally decided to reject it,. as q
compromise, however, it was decided to
cut down the number of bad balls al
lowed to the pitcher from five to four.
The idea of the retOrmerS was further
carried out by abolishing "Outs" on
foul tips. The foul fly caught is out the
same as before. The committee also de-
cided that if batted ball hits the um.
pire while he is doing his duty inside
the diamond, the batter is entitled to
his base the same as if he had bit fairly.
At the evening session of the Joint
rules committee it was decided to allow
each club the privilege of having OIL the
grounds, in full uniform, a tenth player
who may take the place of any player
at the end of any even inning. This
man will be in addition to the substitute
now allowed to take the place OF an in
jursd player. A proposition to permis
the Overrunning of second base was
voted down.
