CHICAGO, Feb. 13.-The Western base
balliStS were late in getting to work
this morning. This was due to the fact
that the schedule committee had not
completed it's labors. The committee is
evidently having trouble. President
krauthotf said that no report would be
presented until this afternoon, and tnat
the indications now were that the West
ern association meeting would not end
until tomorrow night. Milwaukee's
claim to Grim, and which is con-
tested by the Rochester club, is
being heard by subcommittee of
the national board, which is in session
in the smoking room of the Auditorium
with Krautbotf presiding, After the
papers had been presented recess was
taken on account of the meeting of the
national board, which assembled at 80.
At the afternoon session the schedule
committee reported, as ordered, and
stirred up endless confusion. Objec-
tons to dates were found by nearly
every club. 1t was finally decided to
appoint new committee. Rowe, Lin
coin. Watkins, st. Paul; and Brandt,
Omaha, we're named and instructed to
report at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning
with new schedule.

He Will Not Take the Presidency
OF the Board of Control.
CHICAGO, Feb. Is. The board of co n
troll, the supreme power in base bail
matters, met this morning with closed
doors at the Auditorium. There were
present Col. John |. Rogers, of Phia-
delphia, the league representative; Allen
w. Thurman, of the American asso-
citation; L.. c. Krauthoff, of the West
ern association, and n. G. Young, the
secretary of the board. The first thing
to come before the board was the cleo
ton Of president, for which place A.
q. Spalding was most prominently men
toned. The constitutions of the three
associations and the rivals claims of
clubs to the services of various players
were considered. This afternoon the
board took recess, and in evidence of
its conclusion in the matter of selecting
president rendered that position TO A.
q. Spalding. In reply he thanked the
board for the honor of the tender, but
said that, for personal reasons, he must
decline it, and that this decision was
final.
The board was unprepared for Mr..
Spalding'S refusal to accept the office,
anu III OCCoLIC CNlQCllb OllCC llldG IL
would be compelled to select one Of its
own members, but not one Of the trio
was willing to undertake the task Of
autocratic rule for the allotted term of
five years. After a lengthy discus
sion it was finally decided that
the craftsmanship should be made
movable position. Under the
arrangement adopted A. e. Thurman is
to hold Office for one year, when he will
be succeeded by l.. G. Krauthoff, who,
after year Of service. will be relieved
by Col. Rogers. For secretary of the
board there was no suggestion of any
name but that OF Nick Young, and the
veteran base ball official was formally
elected for a term of five
years. This important matter hay
ing been disposed of, the
the board took recess, with the under
standing that the disputed claims of
players be taken up afterward. The
board was still in session at a. m. con-
sidering the disputed, claims OF players.
No decision has yet been reached in a
single case, and the board may hold an
all-night session. liza decision is reached
on any of the cases, it will not be made
public until tomorrow.

fought fourteen battles, nine with
women and FIVE with men. In three of
the latter. two of which we're fought in
Pennsylvania and one five miles from
Freeport, H., she succeeded in putting
her opponents to sleep in less than six
rounds. She states that since the age of
fourteen she has been a pupil of the
most proficient teachers of sparring in
the country. This extraordinary speci-
men of physical womanhood is described
in an accompanying circular as of hercu-
lean build, with an enormous reach and
terrific hitting power. Her nimbIeness
of foot makes it extremely difficult to
reach her, and she is said to be like
lightning on counter. 1t is to be pre-
sumed that after perusal of this sweep
