 There vas no opposition to the cleo. tion of MT. Sexton as president. When Mir. Sexton took the office upon the resignation of Pat F. Powers, presi- dent of the Eastern League, he insist ed another election be held at this time. Mir Farrell holds over in the position of secretary and treasurer.
 The Northwest League, represent ed by President w H. Lucas and D. E. Dugdale, president of the Seattle club, made hard fight for some spe- ] cial legislation in it's favor and the request was referred to the commit. tee on revision. The Northwest League men contended that they were in a peculiar position geographically and they were in reality a class A league, yet only ins the classifiea- tion. President Lucas said there are 100000 people in the six cities of their ciiouit--tfie population require ment of class A leagu-s-and that they were paying class salaries.
 MT. Lucas then asked that the as- sociation allow the class A leagues to draft only one player from the Northwest League and limit the ma. lcr leagues to two. This was laid before the committee pn revision. The reclassification based on the census of 1910 will give the Northwest League position in class A about July of next year.
 The Northwest League also stated. that it was willing to purchase the rights of the Pacific Coast League to Portland, Ore, which had teams in both leagues during the past season.
 F. R. Carson, president of the Cen tral League, was strong advocate of the establishment of a single draft ing price by which the major leaguers might take. players from the four | classes of the minors. Now there is sliding scale, but MT. Carson said that if player in class. c was con ! stidered worth of draft by a major league club then he was worth as much to that club as class A play. CT and should be paid for accordingly.
 Nh. Carson also asked that a player be given a certain time in which to return his signed contract or incur a | penalty. Mir Ewing of the Pacific Ncdob League suggested lldl tne con tracts be sent out January and the rlayer be given thirty days in which to return it. Both Mir. Carson's sug- gestions were referred to the commit tee on revision. | The class c and D leagues asked th-t minor leagues be given the privi- lege of delivering the drafted players at the end of the seasons Now these players are required to be delivered August 23. [ 1 4 committee to consider the advis- ability of redistricting the territory Yf four leagues was appointed by President Sexton.
