April 10th, until May 1st, after which the number would have to be cut down to fourteen men, and the salary limit from then on lived up to; The resolu- tion passed today gives the clubs from the 10th of April until the 10th of May to experiment with the unknowns.
 The playing season next year will be about like it was during the season just closed. There will be 140 games again, and the eastern clubs will open in the west again and close the season in the east, meaning that Montgomery will open away from home and finish with another series of games at home.
 Lowry Arnold was elected Vice-Pres- ident of the League in the place of James Palmer. who has resigned ana motion was adopted making the Vice President an exoflcio meraber of the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trus- tees elected is E. P. Amerine of Mont Leonard L. Stern of New Orleans. and R. H. Baugh of Birmingham, President Baugh of the Birmingham club being elected to succeed MT. Palmer on the Board.
 Before the meeting was called today, Billie smith manager of the Atlanta team brought up the matter of Walker, the big southpaw traded from Jack sonVille for Mullaney. smith IS not foot for the pitcher, who bs said to be a conner, and put in claim for him after Montgomery had completed the deal President Kavanaugh told smith plainly that he had not the ghost of show to get hold of the man, and that there would be no use or sense in agi- tating 1t further. So the matter was not even mentioned during the meet ing of the League, but was forever buried, together with the rubber ball trrtevanca the Castro matter and other "causus celibre."
 Burnum, the pitcher that Smith turn ed loose and Montgomery picked up last summer, is here. and looks to be in splendid health. He has been working at one of the local hotels, but quit this morning to return to his home In Gull man, where he says that he will put in, from now until Spring, getting into condition on his fathers farm--a real one. not the baseball kind.

Pres- ident Amerine tried to get Shreveport to give him the player Instead of the railroad fare, but Mir.

 Malarky Will Manage.
 President Amerine said today that 1t was virtually settled that Malarky would be the manager of thet local team next season.

They had attempted to spread the story broad cast that the Arkansas jurist would be defeated for recollection to the pres- idency and that Lewry Arnold, one of the officials of the Atlanta club. would be elected to succeed him. Of course nobody paid any attention to the threats and charges except the Atlanta and Birmingham people.

 When the election of officers. was reached at the meeting this afternoon, the tall figure of Lowry Arnold ar arose and In glowing tributes put in nomination for president of the League Judge William H. Kayanaugh, the man who has made baseball pos sfble in the South. In his talk MT. Arnold said that while he and his asos- ciates had at times been very angry with Judge Kavanaugh and had said some things that he now regretted that he bore not the slightest malice now and that he thought that tho Southern League owed far more tJ Judge Kavanaugh than it could ever pay.

Birmingham, Dec. 29.--(Special. )-- The greatest surprise party that has been sprung on baseball in the South In many years was the veris@hla love- feast Into which this seventh annual meeting of the Southern League was turned today.

 Rumors of the impending resignation of the third deputy police commls- sioner have been in circulation since shortly after the sensational police court hearing in the case of Enrico Caruso.
