MINOR MAGNATE is OUT
Howard Griffith, Baseball Disturber
Put Under the Ban.

Cincinnati. Ohio, Aug. 16.-After the
national baseball commission had been
called TO order yesterday afternoon a
resolution reciting recent action of the
National association in regard to How
ard Grittiths was read. in which it was
announced that Griffiths had been
summary removed" from all connec-
ton with the National association from
the national board of arbitration In
view of this fact the base ball commits
sion decided that as the individual
against whom charges had been made
was no longer connected with base ball
the case was no longer before the com
mission and it was therefore finally
stricken from the records.
The commission had met to hear the
charge of Judge Kavanaugh. president
of the Southern league and member of
The national board of arbitration,
against Howard Grifiths, also a mem
Der of the National Association of Pro
fessional Base Ball clubs. charging
him with conspiring to break the ma
tiOnal agreement by seeking TO array
all the minor leagues against the Ma
tional and American leagues unless GER
tain concessions were granted TO minor
leagues.
Some weeks ago the commission pre-
pared TO try Mr.. Griffiths, but he Sc
cured an injunction TO prevent such
action. This was in Cleveland. II was
feared that another injunction would
be served at the meeting today TO pre-
vent the hearing of the charges of
