Chris Won der Ahe's parting sheyt before
he-left for home. He evidently feels sore over
having been turned down.
He Isn't tho only man who feels that the
trouble is not over. by any means.
The clubs supporting Won dor Ahe were
Baltimore and Brooklyn. Abell and Won
der Horst wanted him to s,ny In st. Louis 30
that the twclvc-club circuit could remain q
fixture. They saw that IL Muckenfuss was the
choice he would turn over tho franchise to
Cleveland ana eventually Brooklyn and Bali-
more would DO asked 10 withdraw IRON the
circuit. One OF the delegates said that Won
der Ahc was prepared TO immediately enjoin
the league u Muckenfuss got the franchise.
aud n motion was made that the o to 2 vute
DO rescindcd. so that Chris could have no
tangible evidence to work upon. The motion
was carried, and n committee OF two--Abell
OF Br0oiiyn and Won der Horst OF Baltimore
was appointed TO try and bring Won der Abe
and MucReniuss to terms There's no doubt
they'll work hard.
The miagnatcs did n funny thing to-day

was called upon to express its views on the
success or failure OF the Brush resolution,
and with tho exception of two clubs--the
names OF which were not made public---who
were OF the belief that thn old methods were
lilly equal to the necessities, all were OF the
opinion that either this law or something
AKIN to II was desirable and ought to be main
