of the Quarrel


of the Quarrel
WASHINGTON, May 7-COncerning the
trouble between the California aud Pacific
Northwest Baseball leagues, President
Nick Young says it arose in this way;
The Northwest league paid the right Of
reservation under the National agreement,
but for some reason Secretary Phelps, Of
the arbitration board, failed to notify
him. Consequently, when the California
club made inquiry, u was intormed by
Young that the Northwest league had a
right to reserve, but subsequently upon
receiving word from Phelps this state
ment was corrected by Young, who sent a
list OF all the players reserved by the
Northwest league. For some reason this
list failed TO reach its destination About
three days ago President Young mailed
another list.
Last night Young received the following
telegram from President None at San
! Francisco:
The California league viii go under
