Cleveland, Jan. THE meeting
OF the minor leaguers at The Hol-
lenden today promises to be far
more interesting and more difficult
to settle than was anticipated at
first, for it seems that the men,
bers of the Ohio and PENNSYLVANIA
league are not the only ones who
are dissatisfied with existing condi-
tons.
According to the expressions gath
cred from the delegates already on
the ground, things in the Central
and p. o. M. leagues are not al
together as they might be. In fact
the representatives of the Dayton
club of the Central league are de.
sirous that the national board for
mulate n redistricting plan that will
a year from now, change the com
plexion of that Glass b organiza-
tion. According to Messrs. Wolf.
and Redelle, who represent the
Dayton club, their club thinks that
the mileage of the Central league
Is altogether too great for the sake
of financial success. They object
to the jump to Evansville, Ind
and think that the circuit would
be greatly improved by the drop
ping of Evansville, Terre Haute and
South Bend and the taking OF
Akron, Canton, Youngstown and
Erie.
The East Liverpool delegates also
came to the meeting each with a
chip on his shoulder. They want
to get into a league along with
Youngstown, Akron, Erie, Sharon
and Newcastle and will make siren
uous efforts to do SO. They have
a few cards up their sleeves which
they will spring at the last mo-
ment.
The o. and p. league towns,
whose delegates are early upon the
scene, are Marion, Lancaster and
Mansfield. They say that they are
sticking close together in their ef
fort TO keep the league from being
broken up. The Marion club will

MARION DELEGATES READY
FOR A LONG, HARD FIGHT

have eight directors present at the
meeting, each one loaded with a
bushel of arguments to the effect
that Marion is strong enough for the
circuit as it is comprised at pres
ent. Secretary e. G.. Staiger says
that he has the figures to show
that Marion paid out more money
to each OF the other clubs with the
exception of Youngstown than It
received from those towns. In fact
the exact amount Is $410.
"Why" says Staiger, Hshould
they say that they cannot afford
to come to Marion when we nav
them more money than they pay us
The national board cannot act in
this matter at all. This is ques-
tion for the o. and p. league to
decide and If we cannot come to
any agreement the national board
must keep its hands off In fact,
we are prepared to carry the mat
ter to the courts to defend our
rights
The Mansfield and Lansaster dele
gates view the situation in much
the same way. They are here to
fight against a partition of the O
and p. league and will stick at
out along that line all winter they
say.
None Of the National board had
arrived last night being kept in
Cincinnati by the meeting held
in that town. They are expected to-
day as the meeting is set for a
lp. m.
Those who had arrived up to mid
night were Messrs. Bippus, Travis

er, Itapp and LaMarche of Marion :
Sturges and Mcyey of Mansfield
Davidson, Feigley, and Nothacker
of Lancaster; Wolf and Reddle. of

deserve to be called tub. 1t
has required fifteen years to cen
tralize 100 townships and parts of
townships. The law permits a por-
ton Of a. township, usually the
