INTERSTATE LEAGUE

Held Special Meeting in Cleveland.

Special to the Register.
CLEVELAND, o., July 1S.-A special
meeting of the Interstate League of
base ball clubs was held in this city
to-day For some time there has been
several matters that needed a thorough
investigation as well as the remedy
ing of certain evils. G. j. Strobel, own
er of the Toledo club, was the first to
demand that special meeting be held,
as he had grievance which the league
would have to settle. Two games were
forfeited to the Toledos, one each by
Mansfield and Wheeling.
Manager Stroebel wanted each club
to pay their indemnity for SO doing.
When the call was issued for the meet
ing, Stroebel promised to be present,
but he was the only absentee to-day.
When Stroebel failed to appear the To-
Iedo matter was dropped but stringent
rules were adopted and it is not like
ly that the Toledo magnate will find
grievance again. With the Toledo mat
ter out OF the way, the most important
subject discussed was the changing of
the schedule. Owing to Sunday games
being barred at Wheeling and Youngs-
town since the former schedule was
made, it was found necessary to change
the Sunday games so that there would
be an equal division
Following is the Sunday Schedule,
adopted as regarding the Wheeling
team:
Wheeling at Toledo on July %, and
20; at Columbus August 9Th; at Day.
ton August 10; at Columbus September
2; at Fort Wayne September 8; at Co.
lumbus September Is.
RESOLUTIONS were adopted and sign
ed by every member present agreeing
to prevent roWdyism on the field.
