Chicago, Nov. 12.-The warning factions of organ
lied baseball rerested to-day with victory perched
neither banner. Pat Powers. president OF the
Eastern League and Joe o O'Brien, president of the
American Association. who bolted the meeting of
the National Association OF Professional Baseball
Clubs yesterday, departed early trains.
The so-called regulars Of other and more numer-
Gus leagues belonging to the national association
had a brief session and adjourned without date to
hold their next meeting at Memphis probably early
IN the year. Garry Hermann. president Of
the national commission. unable TO respond

national commission to come to Chicago. and Mr.
Pulliam accordingly took train for Cincinnati
tonight.
A survey of the deserted field showed that while
disputed issues may still be adjusted the method
by which this may be brought about is obscure
Both sides have taken what they term an IN
alterable stand. and unless Of them weakens
students of baseball politics declare there is a
likelihood of another major near major league
combination consisting of the boiling leagues.
It is said the national commission viii go almost
any length to avoid this. the boiling leagues
constitute almost the only market for players
whom the American and National leagues wish to
dispose of. That the American Association and the
Eastern League are in deadly earnest, IS said to
indicated by the disposal by George Tebeau OF the
Denver club. Tebeau also owns the Kansas City
and the Louisville clubs of the American Associa-
ton and the sale OF the Denver property is said to
have been to avoid the embarrassment of owning
in the Western League while running two
teams in outlaw" organization. IN case of a
secession. # is regarded practically that
the "outIaws' would put teams in major league
territory probably Cincinnati 81. Louis, Pittsburg
and Chicago.
A ray Of hope was discovered in the statement
made by President Powers to the meeting OF the
National Association that he favored organized
baseball. But his leaning in that direction like
that OF President OBren. is not sufficiently strong
to keep him in the organization unless his demands
are met namely, control of the board of arbtra-
ton and the privilege OF drafting from the South
ern and Western leagues.
