ASKS DISCIPLINE
Governor Tener Will Demand
Good Conduct.
Give Players Chance to Present
Case Before Fixing Penalty.

New York, Dec. 23.-Strict disci-
pline on the baseball field is one of
the things President John K. Tener of
the National league will demand of
his umpires, according to his secre-
tary, David Leroy Reeves, with whom
he discussed the umpire problem. The
only person who can preserve order
on the baseball field is the umpire,
President Tener said, and he added by
way of emphasis that in matters of
discretion and judgment where the
umpire is not specifically guided by
rule he should be supreme.
President Tener's idea Of what the
ideal arbiter should be was expressed
as follows:
II do not wish to be understood as
meaning that an umpire should be q
law unto himself; that his manner
should be dictatorial, his attitude ar
rogant and his entire demeanor evince
a self satisfied air that would brook
no argument or intercession. Right
to the contrary, I think an umpire
should be conciliatory but firm; posi-
tive, but polite; quick, but undemon-
strative; strict, but reasonable"
Regarding the disciplining of play
ers. the new president said he was
opposed to the general practice en-
ployed in melting out punishment to
players for offenses committed on the
field. He said:
lone of the cardinal principles of
Justice is that every man should have
an opportunity to be heard to present
his side of the case. If player is
guilty of the charges submitted by the
umpire and has no equitable or rea-
sonable defense the ends of justice
and the morals Of discipline can be
served just as we'll by suspending the
player three or four days after the
violation has occurred and all the ev-
idence received and investigated as by
an immediate suspension following
the report of the arbitrator.
"To my mind the club owner is
really the one who suffers most by a
players suspension. The players alb
sence weakens the team and in the
end the club owner is the real sufferer.
