Appraisal.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1o,-Asserting
that sit is quite apparent that these
several securities have been grossly
undervalued. possibly to the extent
of many millions of dollars" Surro-
gate Cohalan yesterday rejected the
report of the appraiser on the estate
of the late Joseph Pulitzer, proprietor
of the New York World and of the
st. Louis t-Dispatch. The report
is sent to the appraiser, Joseph J..
Berry, with instructions to take fur
ther evidence in reference to the
value Of the holdings of the estate
in these publications.
The surrogate bases his decision
upon the fact that the figures show
that the Press Publishing Company,
owner of the New York World,
earned during the last five years 10
per cent. on the appraised value,
while the st. Louis Post-D Dispatch,
during a similar period, earned 81
per cent. On a 5 per cent. basis of
the earning power, says the surro-
gate, the value of the holdings of
the Pulitzer estate in the Press Pub
fishing Company should be appraised
at upward of 81, 900, 900 instead of

BRESNAHAN CASE
TO A~RBITRATORS

The claim of Roger Bresnahan
against the st. Louis club for alleged
breach of contract probably will be
settled by an arbitration commission
In st. Louis. This was the tentative
decision OF the board of directors OF
the National League at its meeting
yesterday.
: Bresnahan and his attorneys,
George 4. Priest and Arthur w.
Sager, of st. Louis, appeared before
the board and presented the claim.
The st. Louis club was represented
by President James c. Jones, who
also is an attorney.
After listening to the arguments
for and against Bresnahan's claim
for four years salary the board sug-
gested some sort of peaceful settle
ment, and the attorneys retired for
an hour to discuss terms. On their
return the tentative arbitration plan
was preached and received the sane
lion Of the directors.
At the meeting of the board today
a more definite plan will be adopted,
but it was said that in all probability
the case would be settled by an ar
bitration commission in st. Louis,
which under the Missouri laws would
have power to subpoena witnesses
and render a decision binding on all
parties.
Previous to hearing the Bresnahan
claim the directors decided that they
had Jurisdiction over such cases aris-
ing between club and players,
and when the arbitration plan is
finally adopted tomorrow it viii have
the approval of the board and its
hearings will be held under its sane
