Minor Leagues Say They Will
Never Accept Buffalo
Agreement.
AT WORK ON ANOTHER DOCUMENT
Which They Will Submit to the
Major Organization
Rulers.

The minor league baseball men met
again at New York yesterday and
discussed the new national agreement
drawn up at Buffalo. The National
Association of Professional Baseball
cIubs-as the minors are known Off
cially-is firm in its determination
not to accept the agreement as it now
stands, the feeling on that point be-
ing unanimous.
Today the minors expect to finish
drawing up an agreement which they
will submit to the major leagues. 1t
is not probable the latter will agree
to a modification of the instrument.
but before accepting the original one
the minors declare they will go it
alone.
Il had rather my hand would with
er before signing the agreement franz
ed at Buffalo," said President Powers.
and everybody else in the association
feels the same way. The major
leagues do not realize our strength,
but some day they'll wake up. We
have promulgated over $500 contracts
and already represent i49 cities. We
have as many players making good as
they have, and as many cities making
money, and if need be we can pay the
players as much money. The agree
ment they submitted To us is most un-
fair and one-sided.

Qualities of a Batter.


Confidence and Il good eve are the
principal things Il baseball player
must possess if he wishes to become
good batter, together with the ability
to Judge from the location of the OPP
posing fielders where they expect the
man at the bat to hit the ball. The
man who stands close to the plate
while at bat and bears in mind that
every pitcher, no matter who he is
or what his reputation may be, must
put the ball over the rubber, can,
with patience, become 4 good and, l
may say, a dangerous hitter, even if
he has not got the natural ability
of some of the great batters of the
past and present.
One bad fault many young players
have in the habit of pulling away
from the plate, as it is called, when
ball looks as though it might possibly
hit the batter. How many times have
you seen a man step back from the
curved ball. which a second after, cut
the plate and was called a strike.
much to his discontinue. The remedy
for this, l think, is simple one, which
can be mastered by any young man
possessing the necessary confidence.
1t is simply to step forward and meet
the ball before il crosses the plate.
In this way the ball is always in front
of the batter and he is, so to speak,
on top of it before it breaks.
Many pitchers have puzzlng drop
ball which looks easy and fades away
from the bat when you strike at it,.
On the other hand, many of the best
box men are now using a rise ball
pitched with n side arm motion. a
batter has a much better chance to
kill either of these balls by stepping
into them to the limit of the batter's
box as they approach the plate. The
same thing applies to balls either on
the inside or the outside of the plate.
1t is much easier to hit the ball by
running in on it. BY meeting the ball
early it can be sent in the direction
of left field. The old theory that if
you wish to hit ball toward right
field YOU must strike at it after it has
crossed the plate. is pretty well eX-
ploded. by stepping in and meeting
ing the ball in front of you it is just
as easy. if not easier, to drive it to-
ward right field than it is to pull it
into left field-Roger Bresnahan,

Want MORE MONEY.
Legislature Asked for Funds for
Charitable Institutions.

A number of charitable institutions
are asking for increased appropriations
this year. The state generally gives
these institutions a small appropriation,
because they are largely maintained by
private charity, and if they were not in
existence the burden upon the state
charities would be much heavier.
There are some members of the legis-
lature who will undoubtedly oppose any
increase in this class of appropriations
on the ground of economy. They will
approve spending $4,000 for doorkeepers
for the house without blinking an eve,
and they will vote $50, 600 for legislative
purposes without a murmur, but when
1t comes to helping out deserving charit-
able institutions they Immediately be-
come economical
These appropriations are generally in

ton bill prepared by the ways and

asks for $1,000 this year. It received
money for a hospital building.
