GROWING FESTIVE
American Leaguers Reported
Dissatisfied With Situation.
MAY HAMMER COMMISSION
Next Bomb" Thrown by Johnson

moral Effect"

PHILADELPHIA, December 1S.-The
fine little tempest in a teapot. in place of
a war, which was raised at the major
league meetings in New York last week,
may lead to bigger results than has yet
been suspected. A change in the person.
mel of the national commission may ulti-
mately result from the threatened breach
in interieague relations made by the
Johnsonites.
There is no Disgusting the fact that
the American Leaguers are dissatisfied
with the failure Of the National League
to take positive action in the ticket scan
dal during the last worlds series. This
is not the first time that the national
commission has acted leniently with al
legged offenders and failed to turn over
the evidence to the public.
The commission. it is understood. had
positive evidence a few years ago against
the employees of certain western club,
but powerful influences were brought to
bear to prevent the guilty parties from
being named.
This year the public was led to believe
that something important would come OF
the Investigation, but no official action
has been taken and the investigation Is
still dragging its weary way. Chairman
Hermann Of the commission publicly an

Receives Much Favorable Comment
at Yacht Club Dinner.

NEW YORK. December 1s-Sir Thomas
Upton was one Of the guests at the an
nual dinner OF the Temple Yacht Club
recently. at which there were also about
10 of the leading British yachtsInen.
John H. Clutton, the secretary, in his
speech. said that he was certain that
all present were glad to welcome SIR
Thomas Upton. who was with them again
that evening after an absence of several
years. They were also glad to hear that
Shamrock would be out again racing In
the 2s-meter class next season. and he
trusted that there would be another adj
dttion to the class In the mar future.
With regard to the contest for the Amer.
lea cup he had heard that there was .
possibility that the New York Yacht
Club would accept Sir Thomas Lipton's
conditions for another contest, and should
such prove to be the case he was certain
that Sir Thomas would have the best
wishes Of the members of the club and all
British yachtsmen for his success.

nounced that $500 had been spent upon
this years investigation and that the
inquiry was not yet at an end.
Up to date the commission has not
given any hint as to the evidence that
it has secured. and the cry has gone up
that the usual whitewash will result
This condition of affairs and the inter-
view which President Murphy of the Chi
cago Nationals gave out concerning Pres
ident Johnson Of the American League
brought about the warlike resolution
passed by the American League last
Tuesday
The national commission is made up
of two National I.eaguers and one Ameri-
can Lacquer. The peace agreement
adopted in 1903 calls for the national
commission to be composed OF the presl-
dents Of the two major leagues and one
person to be named by these two execu-
tives. The third member originally agreed
upon was Garry Hermann, president or
the Cincinnati National League club. Mr..
Hermann has held the position ever
since, he being reelected annually.
While there has been no official state
ment of any dissatisfaction with MI
Herrmann's course from American League
sources, nevertheless there has been a
feeling among the JOhnsOnites that 1t Is
about time that there was some kind OF
a change During the meetings at New
York one of the most conservative mag
mates in the American League remarked
to the writer. following Murphy's fling
at Ban Johnson:
did this ever occur to you: How long
would the National League stand Tor
the American League having two repre-
sentatives upon the national commits
sion? For nearly nine years now the
commission has been made up of two Ma
tional Leaguers and one American
Lacquer. Understand. 1 am not finding
fault with Mr.. Hermann, for he has
performed grand work in the ONCE
have often thought. though, that the Ma,
tional League would not have consented
to the balance of power being on our side
all these years"
These remarks may be only little
feather pointing to the direction in which
the wind is blowing. The American
League appears to be getting dissatis-
fed with conditions as they now exist
in base ball. The tempest has been lulled
by the refusal Of the National League
to take the threat Of the American League
to break off relations with it seriously.
but the bomb which the Johnsonites
threw "for moral effect" the next time
may be loaded with something more
deadly than compressed air.

History Of Game.

stood that Mike Donlin will get the job
If Doom Is allowed to go.
The two new leaders who will be watch
ed with more than ordinary interest will
be Harry Wolverton Of New York and
Hank O'Day of Cincinnati.
The players are all looking forward
with great interest to the work Of Hank
ODay. They say that 1t will now be pos
sible for them to tell Hank what they
think of him without being put out of the
game. O'Day laughed when told Of this
last night.
ooh. guess they'll hand me lot of
kidding at first said ODay. But
can stand for that. I think I'll be able to
do my share in coming back at them"

John NJ. Ward, the new president of the
Boston club. said last night that he and
Gafney would start for Boston within a
few days, and that the work Of readjust-
Ing the club would begin at once.
Il am very glad to get back in base
ball." said Mr.. Ward. And while we
may not have a pennant winner. I be-
lieve that with a few changes we ought
to have club up there that will hold its
own. We are going to make some
changes. but our first work will be to fix
up the old grounds"
The members Of the Athletic club are
anxiously awaiting the first move Of
Harry Davis, their old teammate. as
manager Of Cleveland. The Philadelphia
players are very fond OF Davis personal
ly and they are SO anxious to see him
succeed that they would be almost willing
for it to happen at their expense.

get himself into playing condition. His
legs won't stand the strain any longer,
he contends. and that this is the reason
for his retirement.
But the club owners insist that Clarke
will break back into harness just as soon
as he finds his services are needed, ana
1t Is limited that 1t will require but a Few
games to convince Clarke that he has no
player who can take his place.
One reason for the failure Of the Gin
cinnati team last season, and much OF
Grifath's troubles, was an indivlaua
named Larry Mclean, brilliant catcher.
whose habits. however, are such that he
is q detriment to the team.
Had Griffith remained in Clncinnau
Mclean would have been showed into
the minors, because he could not behave
himself. All the clubs have waived on
him, but Hank O'Day, the new manager,
says that he intends to take another
chance with the big catcher. whom he
make good in this he will indeed have
proven his ability as manager, Tor no
one else in base ball believes that the
handling of Mclean is possible.
John Ward seems to stand alone
against the foul strike rule. The an
nouncement that he will work for
change of this rule does not seem to
have struck popular chord, though only
a few years ago there was mucn oplu
sition. The fact that this rule has short
ened the games and prevented a lot of
waste of time has convinced those who
opposed It that it should be continued so
that Ward, who is coming bacA to base
ball after nearly a twenty-year absence,
is very apt to be forced to withdraw his
opposition.
The Boston National League club was
sold to the Ward-Gaffney-Carro syndi-
cate for $4,000 including $4,000 in
debts. For 345 shares $4,000 was paid.
$1,000 less than the estimated price. If
Ward and company had failed to exer-
else their option George Stallings, the
Buffalo manager, had three men in line
who were ready to pay 100000 for the
property. Ward, however. stole a march
on everybody when he signed a contract
December to take over the stock three
days later.

Speaking Of superstitious base ball play
ers, and there are many of them, Jimmy
Callahan, q star in his day, tells story
about Clark Grifiith, manager Of the
locals. Callahan says:
"One Of the queerest superstftions ever
encountered was that Of Clark Griffith
concerning shut-out games. The Little
Fox, who was one of the cleverest and
most versatile pitchers that the game has
ever known. was strongly against blank
ing the other side. Somehow or other,
during his minor league career. he had
imbibed the idea that it was extremely
uniucky to shut out a team-that ill-for-
tune would repay his unkindness, and
that he would lose the next game as
penalty. Hence Griff, while he sincerely
strove to win his game. would also fight
hard to give the enemy one little run as
a salve for their bruises in the ninth
inning. OF course. when 1t was d 1 to U
situation and handing out a run would
mean tying UP the score. Grin would go
right along and make it shut-out, but
even then he would sigh and moan. ano

the clubhouse with predictions OF defeat
