of having the two schedules drawn up

the trouble that the National League

IF the National League wishes to

If the schedule accepted by the commit

have no jurisdiction in the matter. Well

yesterday to have the matter arbitrated

would not agree. Murray wants at least

NATIONAL LEAGUE
ADOPTS SCHEDULE
MagnatesA Agree on 154 Games
and Extend Season to
October IS.

NEW YORK, February 13.-When the
magnates of the National League con-
tined their extended meeting IN the
Waldorf Astoria yesterday President
Charley Ebbets Of the Brooklyn club,
leader of the ne-hundred-and-sixty-e
game schedule faction, announced to his
fellow-magnates that he was through
with the fight, and would agree to adopt
a one-hundred-and-fifty game sched-
ule provided the playing season was ex-
tended to October 10. Every one was sat
isfied, and the one-hundred-and-fifty -four-
game schedule was adopted unanimously.
The extension Of the season caused nu-
merous changes to be made in the orig
inal draft as prepared by the schedule
committee at the Pittsburg meeting. Phil
adelphia will play the Giants at the Polo
Grounds Columbus day, October II, and
Boston will play the Brooklyns on the
holiday. Charley Murphy gets the ST.
Louis club Chicago day, October 10.
The horrible prospect of the clubs hav-
ing to play four Sunday games with the
st. Louis club while the White Sox are
playing the Detroit Tigers was removed
from Charley Murphy's gaze. The sched-
play there instead of the Cardinals
Changes Remove Friction.
1t is not thought that the changes made
will cause any jar with the American
League, as they remove several conflict
ing dates. Ban Johnson has frequently
said that the schedules drawn up in Pitts
burg were binding on both leagues to be
adopted without any changes.
After the meeting yesterday President
Garry Hermann of Cincinnati said that
today he will offer a resolution at the
league meeting to the effect that hereafter
the drawing up of schedules shall be left
to the presidents of the two leagues
Herrmann's idea is to have permanent
schedules drawn up, and that they be
used alternately without any changes.
