MEETING POSTPONED
Eastern Lo-gue viii Wait for the
National to- Settle Its Troubles

The meeting Of the Eastern league
which was to have been held in New
York this week, has been postponed I'M
til after the holidays. The purpose of
causing a postponement was to delay
action until the National league settles
its troubles once for all. AS the main
proposition before the National league,
the number of cities in the circuit, will
probably affect the makeup of the
Eastern league for next season, the
postponement could hardly be avoided.
