NEW YORK, Dec. s.-The last OF
the baseball legislators from the Ma
tional and International league cir
cults arrived here this morning for
the annual meetings which began to-
day. The National League directors
met in the league offices in the Metro
politan Tower. The first business
conference there was the controversy
between the st. Louis club and Roger
Bresnahan, its former manager.
Another question that the board OF
directors had to settle was the rule
adopted a year ago that the club
playing in the words series should
give 25 percent of the receipts to the
other seven clubs of the league. The
New York club officials maintain
that the league had no right to adopt
such ruling The late John T.
Brush objected to the payment of the
Is percent.
The regular meeting of the Nation
al League magnates will be held to-
morrow at the Waldorf-Astoria. Base
ball men look forward to the re-elec-
ton of President Lynch and the
meeting is expected TO be harmonious.
The international League club own
ers will decide at today's meeting
about a salary limit for next season.
Many are in favor of limiting the to
tai salaries 6 one club to $4,000 a
moneia, exclusive of the managers
salary. whine others want to keen
the players limit down to $4,000 a
month
