Nacks Men Bolt the Players FraternyTo Elect Tener Tod
NATIONAL LEAGUE NIAGNATES
TO ELECT TENER PRESIDENT
Suggestion Made That Lynch Be Appointed Chief of
the Organization Umpire
Staff.

NEW YORK. December Gov. John
X. Tener Of Pennsylvania Will be elected
president of the National League by
unanimous vote Of the club owners at
the Waldorf-Astoria late this afternoon.
Every club president, when asked about
the election yesterday, said he would
cast his ballot for the former pitcher OF
the Chicagos.
Gov. Tener arrived here this morning
from Harrisburg and will be invited to
| take the chair at the leagues annual
| meeting as soon as the counting OF the
votes can be concluded. He also Will
be chosen unanimously to serve on the
national commission and will assume
the duties Of both offices at once.
Gov. Tener's candidacy was suggested
first by former Police Commissioners
Fl now pr netnber
Baker began the campaign for the gov
! ernor by enlisting the support OF James
E. Gaffney OF the Boston Braves, Schuy-
| Ter Britton of the st. Louis Cardinals,
Barney Dreyfuss of the Pittsburghs and
| c.. II. Ebbets of the Brooklyns. Drey-
fuss and Ebbets had pledged their votes,
together with that of Garry Hermann
of Cincinnati, to r. w. Brown of Louis
vile. but when they found that Brown
had no chance to be elected they lined
| up with Baker. Then c. w. Murphy of
the Chicago Cubs. who is in Europe,
| agreed to vote for Tener. and SO did HI.
E. Hampstead, owner of the Giants.
| Two weeks ago Mr.. Baker headed q
committee of National League club own
ers that visited the governor in Harris
burg and asked him to accept the nomina.

agreed to elect him for a term of five
years. The governor declined to accept
any salary for the coming year because
his term Of office in Pennsylvania will not
tstt fIar IA Al
he will receive from the league a salary
| Of $4,000 a year.
Chief of Umpires.
1t was hinted yesterday that Thomas j.
| Lynch the retiring president Of the
league, might be retained as chief OF
the umpire staff, inasmuch as he has had
wide experience in that line. But there
was no definite plan to appoint him to
that position. The matter simply was
discussed unofficially by several club own
ers who recognized that Lynch, as pres
IL nt has tried his level best to treat
all clubs with equal fairness. Secretary
John A. Heydler will remain in charge

politan Tower and will look after the
official records of the office.
The directors met prior to the league
meeting to award the 1918 pennant to the
Giants and to hear. besides other reports
that of a committee appointed last year
to consider the New York clubs protest
against paying more than % per cent OF

ceipts.
League Meeting Program.
At the league meeting proper the pro-
gram included consideration Of the de-
mands of the players fraternity; c. H
Ebbets' new plan for drafting players,
which will give the second division clubs
first call; the attitude of the Federal
League and the appointments of the
schedule committee, to be made up OF

Barney Dreyfuss OF Pittsburgh and John
A. Heydler.
The rules committee appointed at to-
days session will meet a similar commit
of Ban Johnson, CIV. somers and Connie
Mack. These committees will confer with
three members OF the Base Ball Writer'S
Association. which also held its annual
meeting at the Waldorf-Astoria today.
The clubs were represented as follows:
New York, H. N. Hampstead, Ashley
Lloyd and John B. Foster; Brooklyn, C..
H. Ebbets and Edward J. Mckeever; Bos-
ton, James +. Gaffney; Philadelphia, Will
liam F. Baker; Chicago. Harry Acker-
land: Pittsburgh, Barney Dreyfuss: st.
Louis, Schuyler Britton; Cincinnati, Au-
gust Hermann.
The managers OF all the National
League teams also were on hand ready
to make trades If possible.
Hermann Stands Pat.
August Hermann stood pat >all day
yesterday In spite of the efforts of five
National League clubs to obtain the serv-
Ices of Shortstop Joe Tinker There
were many rumors, but no facts to con-
firm them. President Ebbets of the
Brooklyn club had a long talk with Herr
mann, but nothing came Of it. Herr
mann insisted that he must receive in
exchange for Tinker a shortstop of equal
provide.
But Ebbets, it was said, had evolved
a scheme by which a three-cornered deal
would land Tinker in Brooklyn if two
other clubs would agree to carry out his
suggestions.
The gossips insisted that the Giants
were in a position to make the best of
fer to Hermann, inaSmuch they were
ready to trade Fletcher, Shafer or Her
zog, together with several other men,
Fred Clarke Of the Pittsburghs who was
at the Waldorf with Barney Dreyfuss.
also talked trade with Hermann. and
told him that Tinker was anxious to be-
come a Pirate.
But Hermann announced that he
would do nothing until after he had
learned from Manager Evers of the Cubs
what terms he would name to swing a
deal.
After Another Man.
Manager Robinson Of the Brooklyns. al
though anxious to get Tinker, has lines
out for another man. This player is
Shortstop Gerber of the Columbus Amer
lean Association team. Robinson said
yesterday that Jack Dunn of the Balti-
more club had refused to sell Shortstop
Derrick to Brooklyn, so that the latter
had been eliminated. 1t is probable that
IL Ebbets fails to land Tinker he will
make a nDeral OHer TO the columbus
club for Gerber. who is said to be by
far the best shortstop In the minor
leagues.
When Secretary John B. Foster of the
Giants meets Miller Higgins. manager OF
the St Louis Cardinals, there may be
some developments regarding First Base
man konetchy. for whom the Giants
have been negotiating for several months.
1t. could not be learned yesterday what
players Huggins had asked in exchange
for Konetchy, and Secretary Foster re-
fused to discuss the matter at all. But
the imp preston prevailed that before the
magnates finish their business this week
konetchy will be returned over to the
New York club.
