day night, but Clark and Hehir were
moving so well, it was a toss-up be-

Goullet is unquestionably the best

Bad Day for Jackie.
1t was bad day for Clark yester-
day. He not only lost his partner,
but a lap as well, and he was very
sick boy. He was indisposed and did
not feel in the humor to go after the
lap they were penalized, after he and
Grenda formed q new team. They
had fine chance early this morning
when many of the teams were in

EBBETS, R., MAKES GOOD IMPRESSION
AS INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE MAGNATE

Charles II. Ebbets, jr., made de-
cidedly good impression on his debut
as magnate and president Of the
Newark International League club
among the magnates at the Hotel
Victoria Monday and yesterday. Some
of the veterans" who pride them
selves on their knowledge Of the bust
ness end of baseball, such as Sam
Lichtenhein, of Montreal, were sur
prised at the manner in which Ebbets
handled himself. Charlie. jr., had been
tutored for twelve years by his
"pater," and the elder Ebbets has
been one Of the most honored solons
whenever the National Leagues SEN
ate meets.
They are telling story on young
Ebbets about how he was at first re-
fused admittance to the star chamber

had to furnished credentials to the

darby, who held the position as SEN
tinel at the door of the private cham
der. And even then the dusky guard
was suspicious. 1t got so that some
of the magnates suggested a pass
word in order that those who fire.
quently left the meeting might be
admitted again. President Edward G..
Barrow ordered lunch served during
the meeting, and the moguls were
kept locked in because some of them
showed a tendency to make frequent
excursions downstairs to the cafe
while important business matters
were under discussion. Young Ebbets
insisted on having a custard pie and
McCaffery, of Toronto, could not pass
up mince pie as relish.
With Ebbets at yesterdays session
was Henry w. Medicus, treasurer of
the Newark club. With Ebbets and
Medicus on hand the Newark club
interests were well cared for.

MOGULS ABANDON
|NTERLEAGUE PLAN
Jack Dunn's Arguments Con-
vince Owners Series Would
Be ImpractiCable.
OPENING DATE SET BACK

After voting down the proposed In
terieague series, moving the opening
date back from April 10 to April Fl
and discussing other minor matters,
the International League magnates
adjourned yesterday, and everything
will now be quiet In the Barrow
league until the spring schedule meet
ing in February causes another Juror
in the metropolis
President Thomas Chiyington, of
the American Association, addressed
the International leaguers yesterday
for half an hour, during which he ex-
planned the details of the jumps be-
tween the towns in his league and
other questions which the Barrow
leaguers put to him. Chivington
seemed to think that his league was
offering the best OF the bargain, as
there are eight Sunday towns In the
association, and when the Barrow
leaguers asked that the series be
opened in the East he asked that q
coin be tossed up to decide on the
arrangement Of the schedule. This
the International leaguers refused to
do, and 1t was the opening wedge
which Jack Dunn showed through
with all his might. Chivington ar
gued that, inasmuch as his league
had not challenged the International
League and that It was merely q pro-
posal. he saw no reason why 1t would
not be fair to toss up coin to decide
which league should first get the
benefit of the innovation.
When the vote was taken the count
was to / against the series. Presi-
dent James ]. McCaffery. of Toronto,
voted for it more as Joke than In
earnest.
The magnates decided to delay the
opening of the season, moving the
opening day from April is to April 81.
The main objection to the early OPEN
ing was the fact that it would be
necessary to have the teams idle on
four open dates in order to allow the
Montreal and Toronto teams to play
at home on Victoria Day, May "a, a
big Canadian holiday.
Another reason was that the Newark
club, and probably the Jersey City
club, will play double-headers Sum-
days. 1t is planned to leave the Fri
days open on Newark's schedule.
During the meeting it was agreed
that any magnate caught giving out
information would be fined 5000 If the

row will handle the press, as usual.
Baltimore scribes are claiming that
the meeting was decisive victory for
Jack Dunn. The Oriole leader was
strongly opposed to the series from
the start, and his objections were pre-
scented In such a convincing manner
that one by one his opponents way
cred and fell.

Harrisburg for the purpose of tender
ing the position to the governor. At
that time Mr.. Tener said he would
accept the position II elected unani-
mously. The National League car
ried out it's agreement with Mr..
Tener by electing him unanimously
for a four-year term.
The annual meeting of the National
League was inaugurated by yester-
days session. Governor Tener's cleo
tion was by far the most important
business transacted. William +. Bak-
er, who was sponsor for Mr.. Tener
placed the latter In nomination. Mr.
Bakers remarks were right to the
point and comparatively brief. He
pointed out to the magnates that the
position of president of the league
demanded big man to fill the place
satisfactorily, and that such q man
had been found to accept the position
in the person of Governor Tener, who
not only was q former ball player,
we'll yersed in the rules and customs
OF organized ball, but would bring to
the Office q personality and reputation
that 1t had perhaps never enjoyed.
Mr.. Bakers nominating speech was
seconded by President Dreyfuss, Of
the Pittsburgh club, an intimate and
by President Ebbets, of the Brook
lyn club. Then on motion OF Presi-
dent Gaffney, of the Boston club,
nominations were closed. No other
names being before the league, the
secretary was instructed to cast a
unanimous ballot. No mention of
salary was made. but 1t was report
ed Mr.. Tener will receive $4,000 O
year.
Dodgers Offer $4,000 for Joe Tinker.

and the McKeever brothers regard
ing the possible trading of Joe Think
er to the Dodgers Hermann received
a shock when the Brooklyn magnates
made a fiat offer of $4,000 for Think
er's release. Hermann said that he
didn't care about selling Tinker out
right, but that he wanted players in
exchange for him. whereupon Mana
ger Wilbert Robinson, who was pres
emit, was instructed to make out q list
of players who could be offered to
the Cincinnati magnate.

as individuals had deserted the fra
ternity. Fultz said. Contrary to
the report circulated today that the

ger of contradiction that there have
