THE WASHINGTON CONFERENCE.
WASHINGTON, August 26.-The Ameri-
can association this morning sent com
munication to the League, saying: "Un-
less the League can guarantee the return
of the players who jumped the American
contract particularly Kelly and good
faith in the negotiations and dealings, we
may be compelled to withdraw from the
conference"
To this the League, after reciting the
propositions which led up to the confer
ence, says: This last demand occupies
the same status as other demands and is
proper subject for discussion in the joint
conference. We are prepared to proceed
to adjust the difference in compliance
with our understanding at the time of the
adjournment last night. and will remain
here to meet you until o'clock this after
noon"
To this communication, the association
men replied: We stated to you positively
last night at the adjournment that we
would not meet you today unless you
would have your club members correct
the wrong which was done in direct viola
OlOu vi GHO SDltIO vi ldlL IL bAio
you must agree. We could under circum-
stances do nothing less In the statement
and enumeration of propositions and de
mands you have (perhaps uuintentionally)
somewhat confused your propositions with
ours and have omitted several made by u.s."
The American association then gives the
propositions and concludes as follows:
1--WE, in candor confess that we had most
earnestly hoped that the differences would
be settled; but so long rs your league re-
cogniZes and encourages the conduct re-
ferred to iu the former note, we think it is
hardly disposed to meet US half way. We
shall at all times hold ourselves in readi-
ness to meet aud treat with you fairly and
meet you half way in any settlement"
The representatives in Washington of
the American Base Ball association held
meeting today. Louis Kramer rendered
his resignation of the office of president OF
the association, to take effect September l.
The resignation was accepted. Zack
Phelps of the Louisville club, was elected
president
Boston, August 26.-The directors of the
Boston base ball club american associa-
tom say that nothing will be done about !
the jump of Kelly. Today they sent a
telegram to President Kramer asking that
the Kelly matter be not considered in the
conference at Washington. They do not
need him, and would have no use for him |
even If he was returned.
