the Eastern League will come to Gin
cinnati to talk with the base ball mag
mates when they meet here on January

upon the major leagues at this meeting
and according to the judgment of local
base ball men the matters in dispute be-
tween the two minor leagues and the
majors will in all probability be settled
up at that time. According to the men
who are on the inside Of this matter,
Chivington and Barrow are arranging a
schedule of their demands. According to
the reports from Chicago, Chivington has

Johnson apd has secured his promise to
have the matter brought up at this meet
ing. Johnson has wired President Herr
mann to this effect and says he will come
to Cincinnati for the January meeting to
have this question settled. The demands
will be the following:
1. The right TO withdraw from the Ma.
tional Association of Minor Leagues and
recognition as separate organization OF
their own.
D A higher classification, so that the
Eastern League and the American Asso-
citation can draft players from the South
ern, Pacific Coast, Western and all classes
and minor leagues on terms OF equality
with the majors.
3. Representation on the national com
mission in lieu Of withdrawal from the
national board Of arbitration.
4. They will agree not to protest against
the one-man draft rule now in force, II
return for protection as to equal draft
ing privileges with the majors.
3. They will guarantee not to violate
territorial rights of the American and
National Leagues and not to put clubs
in Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland ano
Pittsburg If their demands are granted
G. They will agree not to go to war over
a higher classification, but in case OF q
disagreement to submit the whole mat
ter to arbitration.
Z. They profess their.loyalty and friend
ship to organized base ball and laud tn
methods and achievements OF Presiden'
Ban johnson and President August Herr
mann.
All these matters are said to have equa
importance and the minor presidents WI
force the point and ask that every ont
of them be given. Whether they Will OF
not is another question. Suffice to say
