(special from United Press.)

New Haven, Jan. 6.-New Haveners awoke today to find an incessant rain falling, the heavy snow of the past few days running through the streets inches deep and the sidewalks cov- cred with slippery covering of sleet. The covering was made exceedingly dangerous and many reports were made during the morning at the hos pitals of persons injured by falling. The temperature moderated many de- grees during the night, giving those who had donned heavier clothing as protection against the chilly blasts of yesterday and the day before, a splendid opportunity to catch the cold of their lives.

This Understood to be the
Desire Of Lynch, New
Owner Of Trenton

LANCASTER. Pa, Jan. 5.-'or the first
time In the history of the organization the
Tri-state League is holding its schedule
meeting in this city to-day.
1t is understood that President Carpen-
ter. Of the league, has prepared two
schedules. each containing ia games. one
starting ON April and the other on May
4. Il is believed the latter will be favored,
on account of weather conditions. The
schedule would end in the autumn. at
time when the weather is unusually pleas
ant. Lancaster will favor the later sched-
uIe. should any attempt be made TO drop
Williamsport from the league Lancaster
will stand by the lumbermen In resisting
any such movement. The management OF
the local club does not look for any such
movement. The word received here is that
owner Lynch. of Trenton, favors the
transfer Of his team TO wilmington, but
no definite steps to that end are known
to have been taken.
After the business session the baseball
magnates and a number of newspaper cor
respondents will be entertained at tho
Hotel Wheatland by the Lancaster Club.
Director Harry +. Ryder will act as toast

NEW RULE WILL
BENEFIT MINORS
Big Leagues Will Have to Send
Surplus Material Back to
Smaller Leagues

The Tri-State and other minor
leagues scored a big victory when the
two major leagues voted In favor OF
limiting the number of players to be
carried at any time during the season
10 thirty-flve. In addition TO that. they
are not TO carry over twenty-five be-
tween May 10 and August TO- That
means that the big league managers
win have to do some heavy shaking
Of the bush along in April. and the
job OF the professional bench warmer
will be n thing of the past.
The players who have heretofore
drawn fat salaries 10 take part in any
game will have 10 go back TO the
minor leagues and again work them
selves TO the front.
1t has been customary I'm the past
for the big league managers to pick
up lot OF promising talent through
both the purchase system and the draft
and hold on 10 them regardless Of how
badly they are needed in the minor
leagues This wholesale grabbing OF
young players has worked havoc in
the ranks of the minors. and they feel
that it Is nothing but right that these
idle players should be distributed so
as 20 improve tho game throughout
the country. They also argue that il
is better for the player. He can much
better improve himself by working
regularly ON a fast minor league team
than by sitting on the major league
bench and doing nothing
Last year several clubs carried more
than thirty players all season. Al the
start some Of them had something like
