Lynch Starts School for Umpires

New York, Dec. 23.-President
Lynch of the National League yester-
day set about Strengthening out the
umpire situation, which was used as
the most formidable weapon by the
atni- Heydler faction against the re-
election of the former president. The
new executive yesterday mailed to all
the umpires of his staff a letter in
which he asked them to familiarize him
at once with the principal faulthnders
of the organization.
He treasured the officials of his
hearty cooperation, but requested, in
the interest of several radical changes
he contemplates. thorough line on
the chief troubles which confronted
the arbiters last year. Players. man
ayers and club owners are included in
the list.
While President Lynch would in no
manner indicate what reforms he IN
tends to inaugurate it is plainly evil
dent that he wishes first to tabulate
his constituents in their proper order
of worth. so far as law and order are
concerned. He dropped the hint that
while he remains at the helm the UNI
pire will continue to reign supreme.
A conference of acting umpires IN
all probability will be held during the
