New York, Feb. 12-Baseball mag mates of the National and American leagues will hold the center of the stage in this city during the week. Beginning tomorrow with q special session of the national committee there will be three meetings every day for the remainder of the week.
 It is likely that the case of Jimmy Sebring, now manager of the Will Transport club of the outlaw Tri-staie league, and under contract to the Chicago National league club for the seasons of 1906. 1907 and 1908. will be taken up. Sebring maintains that he has Chicago's permission to manage the WilliamspOrt team during 1906. President Ban Johnson of the Ameri- can league, will ask that summary ac- tion be taken against Sebring, it is said. The committee will meet to- morrow in the office of the National league here.
 On Wednesday the schedule meet ings of the two leagues will be held. Since President Harry Pulliam of the | National league, and Ban Johnson, first compared the drafts of their schedules in this city, two weeks ago, i they have worked hard to cut out some of the conflicting dates that ap- peared at that time.
 So well have they fulfilled theil tasks that there are now only twenty
 four conflicting dates as the schedules
 are framed. ready for adoption by tht l two leagues.

Plymouth is out of polo again. It was declared to have possible chance of coming back to the fold. The man who runs the place, however, doesn't care to run the polo game against the skating game. as the latter is running well and protitably in Plymouth. Yes ter1ay President Fitzgerald and Secre- tary Whalen of the New England league received their finaIirepf,e from the Plymouth rink man.
 They also got a reply regarding the Quincy rink. and last night Secretary Whalen. who is to run polo in Quincy, announced that all obstacles were re- moved and that Quincy would be in the game.

In the old days he Kept down to weight by sprinting away from maddening throngs and taking on the players in impromptu bouts. Nowadays the de- pertinent of the athletes and specta- tors Is much improved and the life ot an umpire is cast in more pleasant. though perhaps more monotonous. lines. Timothy Carroll was the cen tral figure of many a melee. and he can always tell an interesting story. During the National league meeting at New York recently an old ball player was reminded of an incident that oc- cured several years ago by the sight of Hurst and Hughey Jennings in con versation.
 When Hughey was playing short for Baltimore in the old twelve-club league" said the player. he and Tim got to be very good friends. One win ter Tim went up to a little town in Pennsylvania and visited Huhgey and his folks. He had the best of every thing and made friends with all ot the family. The following season. Jennings. ST.. who had never seen Hughey play big league ball, journeyed down to Baltimore just to see his boy in action. It happened that Tim was umpiring. In the very first in ming. before Baltimore went to the bat. and before Hughey had a chance to catch a pop fly or make an assist. there was . squabble over a decision. and Hugbey. of course. was conspicu- ous in the debate. He carried it 90 far that Tim ordered him to the bench and off the field. Up in the stand Hushey's father boiled with indigna- tion. He didn't enjoy the game. ana when Hughey joined him aftervsrd he exploded:
 And that's the kind of . man you bring into the family circle. is it, We'll. he'd better not come to see me any more: accepts my hospitality and then puts you out of the game before I have a chance to see you throw . bsII,'"
 And Tim never visited Hughey after that.
