Cllned today To review eight decisions
OF the lower courts In which the
right OF the government to collect the
Spanish American war inheritance tax

CHICAGO, Nov. 1i.-Baseball man.
ayers protests occupied the attention
today Of the arbitration board of the
National Association Of Professional
Baseball leagues, that Is, In the tine
when reports OF the Western and
Three-T leagues were not making ap-
peals that their classhcations remain
undiSturbed. This latter matter was
watched even more closely by most of
the other minor leagues than their
own protests. which were being rele-
gated to the odd moments of the
boards time thereby
Reclassification Every Ten Years.
Under n recent decision It was
agreed that every ten years a rcclnssi-
tication OF the leagues would be made

ers. Leagues populated by one mil
lion or more persons could be in class.
A, thouse OF four hundred thousand or
more In class B. etc. Now that the
census has shown some ol the clubs,
particularly those heard today, could
not combine and produce the required
numbers. they are relying on various
causes for holding their positions.
Western League TO Retain Class.
The Western leagues reminder to
the board that ten years ago II had
been promised a place in class A for
It's sacrifice to the American assocIa-
tion won favor. and II was unoficially
agreed that the Western should retain
It's class The Three-Ts claim was
based on the proposition that clubs
franchise covered radius of five
miles, and. accordingly. it could mus
ter more than its required 10000.
This. new point. induced the
board managers TO agree tentatively
that all matters OF classification
should be left TO the whole associa.
ton TO decide tomorrow.
Did Not Touch Upon Classification.
Judging from the expressed opin-
ions today there is little disposition
on the part OF the minor leagues to
touch upon tho classification matter
now. The chief arguments advanced
against such step are:
The leagues have enjoyed and are
enjoying uDoqualled prosperity. To
reduce classification among Its sup
porters and the brush league again"
objection would hurt the business end
OF the game.
When a league once has been given
a certain classification, It works q

their required population, and the
change merely would cut down tho
standards Of the game for an unueces-

to be applied IN the cases OF those
leagues desiring TO go higher. how

ulatlon limit arc meeting considerable
objection To the advance.
