BASE BALL MACyATES BUSY
National Commission Postpones
Action on Boilers Demands.
AMERICAN LEAGUE BEGINS WORK
Limit of Drafting Period TO Fifteen
Days f. Approved and Rule f.
Now ERectIve-Limit
to Passes.

NEW YORK, Dec. 10-with meetings OF
the National commission and Of the Ma
tional and American Base Ball leagues in
session, yesterday was one Of hard work for
the men active in the management in the
game. With one exception. however, the
days developments were Of little material
Importance. This was the postponement of
a decision on what is undoubtedly the
weightlest matter before the base ball legis-
lators for settlement.
At the adjourned session of the National
commission the demands OF the Eastern
league and American association for higher
classification and greater privileges we're
laid over for consideration at its annual
meeting at Cincinnati on January /. This
was decided on in order to allow the minor
leagues ample time to present their argu-
ments. That the dual plea is not to be
allowed to fall by the wayside for want of
aggressive pushing. however. was indicated
by the continuation OF the efforts Of its
proponents to bring the men high in base
ball councils to their way Of thinking. At
both the second days sessions of the Ma
tional league and the initial meeting Of the
American league. the Eastern league
American association committee, Messrs.
Powers and O'Brien, and their attorney,
Henry ]. Killilea of Milwaukee, formally
presented their requests, as outlined Mon
day before the National commission.
Neither meeting took any action, 1t being
stated by the authorities Of both leagues
that the decision Of the National commits
sion would be awaited.
American League Meeting.
The American league magnates opened
their session by formally awarding the pen
- HnAn 4. 49, a
interesting of the resolutions adopted was
that which decreed that no passes for ad-
mission to grounds would be given to visit
ing clubs. The meeting approved the report
of the board of directors and the secretary
treasurer's report, and accepted the draft
ing clause favorably received by the Ma
tional league, which limits the drafting
period for major leagues to September /
to September Is. The rule will be in force
from now on.
At the National league meeting action
was taken upon some of the recommend.
tons made in President Pulliam's annual
report. All the clubs were represented ex-
cept New York. A resolution of regret or
the death of Avery Chadwick, 1.-THE father
Of American base ball" was passed. The
time limit for return of players to clubs
on waiver was reduced to five days during
the playing season.
The indiscriminate ISSUANCE OF passes by
league clubs was discussed at length and
clubs were urged In view of the anti-race
track betting legislation to take extra pre-
cautions enforcing the leagues law against
betting in the stands.
PuIlinm's Suggestions Go over.
Mr.. Pulliam's suggestion as to postponed
games was referred to the committee on
constitution and his suggestion tina the
