Communications were read from the

BASEBALL LEADERS
STILL DEADLOCKED
TELEGRAM From Ban Johnson
Taken TO N lean That He
VIII Keep Hands Or

NEW YORK. Dee. 17-After taking
three ballots. which showed a continue
ton of the deadlock. the third session
of the annual meeting of the National
baseball league adjourned tonight un-
til tomorrow morning.
The three ballots stood: For John
NJ Ward. 4; for W. r. Brown OF Louis
Vile. A.
The most Significant feature of the
meeting was the Introduction by Garry
Hermann. president of the Cincinnati
club, of telegram from Ban E. John
son. president of the American league
which was as follows;
The American league club owners
have left New York This should in
dicate forcibIy to You and your col
leagues that we do not wish TO inter
fere or embarrasS to the slightest de-
gree your organ ization in the election
of an officer.
After the four hour session Presi-
dent Ebbc of the Brooklyn club an
nOunced that 1t was the sense Of the
eight magnates that Ban Johnson re-
ceded from his avOWal not to sit on the
National commission if Ward We're
elected president of the National
league. a position he assumed as az
ardent advocate of the reelection os
John A. Heydler. Ebbetts announced
further that. II the eight magnates
could not break the deadlock. they
must either appoint a regency. such as
formerly existed. or appoint one Of
their number 70 act as president He
insisted that the meeting yesterday
did not by resolution amend the by
laws whereby. in the event OF a va
cancy in the presidency. the board Of
directors should elect an acting presi
dent
On the other hand Horace FogeL
new president of the Philadelphia club.
said this morning that the bylaws We're
so amended.
Such a resolution. II adopted would
give the Heydler forces control The
board of directors is composed OF Herr
mann of Cincinnati Dreyfus OF Pitts
burg. ROvey of Boston. Murphy OF Chi
cago and Ebbetts of BrOokiyn. The
first three are pledged TO Heydier. The
vote for Brown is not taken seriously
1t is considered almost certain that
if an agreement is not reached after
three hours tomorrow. the election viii
be postponed Indefinitely and that
either a regency of three will be ap-
pointed or that Heydler will continue
acting president.
1t is rumored that Stanley Robi-
son OF St Louis can obtain sufficient
players to make an almost pennant
winning club if he viii vote for either
Ward or Heydler- His manager. Roger
Bresnahan. has been very busy among
the players in the corridors.

COmiSkey FayOrs Spikes in
Baseball Shoes

NEW YORK. Dee 1T.-CharIes A.
COmiskey. owner of the Chicago Amer
lean League baseball club. is against
the proposed new rule doing away with
the use of spiked shoes
The moment YOU slow up the pres
ent style of play" he said. public
interest viii decrease. Take away the
sensational stealing of bases and base
ball would be tires0me. Base runners
and ielders can not get along without
spikes.
Quitting Barrett. for example. was

Ten Doctors
Said He Would Die

I'm 1903 we wrote you regard
ing my husband, who was suf-
fering from heart trouble. He
was superanuated by the North
Georgian Conference. Ten doc
tors at different times said he
would die. You advised DR..
Miles Heart Remedy and Re-
storative Nervine; we did as
advised, and Improvement was
apparent from the very first. He
recovered and the Conference in
1904 gave him a charge. He
never felt better, although he
has very heavy work and does
a great. deal of camp meeting
work. I am so glad we took
your advice and gave him the
medicine, and feel that / ought
to let you know of the wonder
full good results from its USE"
MRS. T. S. EDWARDS,

This proves what DR.. Miles
Heart Remedy will do. Get a
bottle from your druggist and
take it according to directions.
1t does not matter whether your
heart is merely weak, or you
have organic trouble, if it does
not benefit you take the empty
bottle to your druggist and get
your money back.
