Of Gov. Tener.

John Connery. one Of Chicago's solid
business men, popular alike socially and
politically. friend Of Old Roman Comiskey
and Ban johnson, is the probable new
owner Of tho Chicago National League
ball club. The deal was rot closed yes
terday because there appears to be
slight difference OF opinion between Con-
merry and the present owner. Charles y.
Taft. as to the exact amount the prop
erty Ia worth However. Mr.. Taft put an
upset figure on his holdings and turned
the entire matter over to Gov Tener,
president OF the league, for adjustment.
For over three hours the sale was
threshed out at a meeting Of the National
League at the Waldorf. That body con-
vened early in the afternoon for short
session only to adjourn until o'clock.
when Mr.. Taft promised 20 present. Mr..
Connsry, who came to New York with the
special uainload OF rooters to welcome
home the Lusitania, with its precious bur
den Of Giants and White Sox. was not
present at the conference. although Presi-
dent Ban Johnson spent short time in
the meeting room Johnson's presence was
believed to be connected with the sale.

Of his offer or admit that he had made

When the meeting closed Gov. Tener

Cubs holdings and had commissioned the
executive TO sell to whomever he and the
league saw NJ to accept within it's ranks
Harry Ackerland Of Pittsburg. owner OF
the ten shares OF Cub stock formerly pur-
chased from Frank Chance is to have the
option Of either retaining this stock or
selling IL to the buyer Of the Taft block

We wish to have the Chicago club. at
least the controlling interest in II. owned
by Chicago man or men,, concluded
Gov. Tener who would not admit that he
had any particular purchaser in view.
No action was taken In regard to fl!ing
the vacancy In the board OF directors o.
casioned by the retirement Of Charles
Webb Murphy from Chicago. II was
deemed best to wait until the new owner
ship had been decided II also was sug-
gested that each club president be made

ton also was loft to the discretion Of Gov.
