not later than Tuesday night, in order
! that the conference can release it's
members from their pledges not to sign
contracts until so notified by the or
ganization. This cannot be done, how
ever, until formal contract has been
entered into with the proper baseball
authorities, and l have notified all
members of the federation not to con-
slider themselves released from their
pledges until personally and formally
notified by the organization to that
effect
I'VE are confident that all our re-
quests will be granted when they are
laid before the national commission
and fully explained, for the players do
not believe that there was at any time
objection TO our rSquests on their mer-
its. The objection which once existed
because these requests We're presented
by the federation can no longer be
said to be a detrimental fator, since
the prejudice against the organization
is fast dying out.
1T means much to both the players
and the clubs to have these contract
differences removed, and the members
of the federation are deeply gratified
that what might have developed into
a controversy attended with many
serious consequences is apparently SO
near a happy solution"

NATIONAL COMMISSION CONvENES
Officials of Baseball Court Gather Cincinnati Today-De-

laws be Discussed-Yale Wins Chess Championship.

Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 4.-The arrival
here today of President Ban johnson
of the American league, Secretary John
Heyler of the National leagpes and
Barney Dre,yfus, president of the Pitts
burg club off the National league, is but
forerunn er of a meeting of the ma
tfonaI baseball commission here to-
morrow th at bids fair to make baseball
history, for before the week is over the
supreme court of baseball will have
wrestled with some weighty questions
propoTnred by the new Baseball Play
ers Federation
Nor will the national commission be
alone in the discussion of the Players
Federation's requests. The national
board Of minor leagues has appointed
committee that is expected to arrive
here tomorrow to hear the requests of
the federation.
The national commission will meet
tomorrow morning and hear the annual
report of its chairman, August Herr
mann, and its secretary, John q. Bruce.
Following these reports the officers for
the ensuing year will be chosen, and
from all Indications both Mr.. Herr
mann and Mr.. Bruce will succeed
themselves
The requests of the Players Fedora
ton deal exclusively with the subject
of contracts, the wording thereof. the
reserve clause, and various other
angles that the federation believes
should be done away with or at least
modified, even though it requires a re-
vision or amendment to the peace
agreement.
It is probable that the commission

league of Joe Tinker and Mordecai
Brown is concerned. 1t is hardly prob
able, however that any official action
on these cases will be taken until the
