Killing BEFORE THE
NATIONAL COMMISSION
Popular Catcher Makes AppIi-
cation for Reinstatement
as Player in Good
Standing.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, February 5.-John
Killing, catcher of the Chicago National
League club, who quit the team about q
year ago, has applied to the national
base ball commission for reinstatement.
His written application was received by
Chairman Hermann today. .4
At the time Killing left the Chicago
team he announced that he would never
play ball again. He said he wanted more
time to care for his private business.
king for many months has been a puzzle
to the base ball enthusiasts throughout
the country. Many interviews have been
given out in which it was declared that
he wanted to go back into base ball, and
then a few days later it would be re-
ball. 1t is probable that the national
commission will now reinstate him on
condition that he pay fine.
Tiff Over Terms.
CHICAGO, February 5.-Kling did not
play with the Chicago Nationals last
season because of an alleged disagree
ment with President Charles W. Murphy
over terms. Murphy has sent Killing a
letter, in which he gave him indefinite
IeAfe OI dDSeuCe IN Oruef tNaI ne might
attend to his business in Kansas City
Killing has said that the only reason he
did not play here was that he had no
one he could leave in charge of his bill
lard hall.
1t is not known what action will be
taken by the national commission, as
the rules provide penalty of suspension
for three or five years for similar Of
lenses. The case evidently hinges on the
point as to whether the commission will
accept the leave Of absence granted by
Murphy as bona f1de. -...-
