OF course the railroads do not want
competition. A great many members
of the senate besides Miles Poindex-
ter are confident that the fight for the
repeal of the tolls measure springs dl-
rectly from the railroads. They
want to handicap the boats passing
throush the canal with as heavy a
weight as possible.

been a very big affair. Three or four
hundred were in attendance and a
great deal of interest was manifested
in the proceedings. Rev. j. G. Glass

was on the program, and made very
fine impression.

FRANK SHERMAN Wins
FROM alfredo De ORC
Local Pocket Billiard Expert Captures
First Game of Series from Cuban
by Count of $50 to l30.

Frank Sherman won the first OF the
series n pocket billiards from Alfredo
De Oro. $50 points to 100. at the Royal
Billiard Parlors last night. It was a
game of bad breaks for both players, and
while Sherman was in fine form, his play
was affected by having to get out of bad
holes and make hair-raising shots in or
der to score. De ORC took things easy
and philosophically and lost like a true
sport. The general raggedness of the
game is apparent from the fact that it
ran to thirty-tWo innings. and the aver
age of eaA player was less than five
balls. T
When the leaves were too bad TO shoot
both players resorted to safety play and
in these efforts for advantage both play
ers showed great skill.
Henry Wilkins introduced the players.
and Charles Bartelmas acted as referee.
Following is the score:

$50 600 for Eddie Collins Big League Doings In Gotham
Rule Adopted to Lower
Limit Number Of Players
Between Dates Of May to September Teams Cannot
Carry More Than Twenty-One Men-Barn-
storming Trips Bad.

New York, Dec. Sat a late hour to-
night the National Commission of Or
ganized Baseball is in secret session at
the Waldorf. devising ways and means
of successfully combating the opposition
of the Federal League.
There Is q possibility that on adjourn
ment the commission will announce some
of its war plans. but there is a greater
probability that 1t will adhere to a pol
icy Of utter silence.
All day today, with the corridors, bars,
cafes, and sun parlors at the Waldorf
literally swarming with baseball mag
mates, submagnates, near-magnates. and
mere players, the bare mention OF the
Federals has been sufficient to cast a
funeral hush over the councils and con-
fabs, and It is assumed that the COM
mission will be just as mysterious offi-
cially tonight as it has been unofhcially
all day.
The same reticence with regard to the
subject uppermost in everybody's mind
marked the sessions in the afternoon OF
the board Of directors and club owners
of the National League. The former body
held a perfunctory meeting. at which II
adopted the treasuret's report and for
maIly awarded the 1914 penant to the Bos'
ton Braves. Then it adjourned and the
National League club owners got into
action.
Stockholders Present.
At this meeting the clubs were repre-
sented by the following stockholders
Boston Braves. J. Z. Gaffney, Herman
Nickerson, r. II. Davis. John c. ToOle
Brooklyn, Charles II. Ebbetts, Edward J
McKeever, s. W. McKeever; Chicago
Charles II. Thomas. Harry Ackerland

ems. John Cogan: New York, II. NJ
Hampstead, John b. Foster. ASHLEY
Lloyd, c. ]. Sullivan: Philadelphia. w
III Baker, c. L. Ruck; Pittsburgh. Bar
ney Dreyfus; St. Louis. Schuyler P
Britton. Mrs. Helen Britton.
By the time the owners got through
a tHo-hour session they had reached
several decisions. and one Of more, i'm
portance than all the rest put to
gether.
Player Limit Lowered.
This was the adoption OF a rule low
ering the limit on the number OF play
ers each team may carry on Its pay
roll, and lengtheninG the time durin'
which the limit is effective. Until las
season, when the rule limiting player
was suspended. the rule had been tina
from May Is to August % no Nauona
League team might carry more thai
twenty-five players on its pay roll.

T6e rush was held on the football field
,,,bicb was a sea Of mud. Clothing was
torn off the fellows in the melee and
every one got up covered with mud Both
sides were evenly matched but the first
year men were a trifle faster than the
sophs and took advantage OF every open

The cane, which is the prize. goes to
the class Of 1918 and will remain during
their freshman year and also during their
sophomore year If they can keep 1t from

ENGINEERS To WORK
Behind CLOSED GATES
Bridge Builders Will Prepare for
Wgilant Game in Secret
Practice.

Such a large crowd has been present
at the two practices held by the Engi-
neer team in preparation for the game
Sunday with the Visilants that Coach
Carrouth, of the Bridge Builders" made
arrangements with the commanding
officer at the Washington Barracks to
hold the workouts in secret from now on.
The team will be given its workout
every morning at II o'clock, and no one
will be allowed inside of the gates until
a halt is called. The soldiers at the post
will not be allowed to witness the prac-
tice and the guard mount will see that
no outsider will enter the enclosure.
In the workout yesterday held by the
VigiIants signal dan and scrimmage was
in line. and Coach Brown drove the
team for one hour through the different
plays which they have been Tsing this
season. During the scrimmage the
scrubs were given the famous Ruby
Pass used by the Engineers and defen-
sive half back Of the first eleven showed
excellent work at breaking up this line
of attack.
Right Tackle Langon. who has been
doing the punting for the wearers OF
the Big V. showed remarkable form
Yesterday at getting the pisskin of and
the average for his drives were forty
five yards. In this line the Engineers
will not have the advantage. Johnny
Blair is one of the best kickers in this
vicinity. and during the past seasons
his boots have always gained quite an
amount of ground for the Bridge Build
ers but the followers of the Vigilants
are now confident that the big tackle
can equal the kicks of the fast little
Engineer.
The officials for this contest have been
selected. but the committee of soprting
editors are not yet ready to make the
names public.
The Washington herald., 1914-12-09

The change provides that the limit
season shall begin on May !, 1915, ana
extend until September !. and that be-
tween those dates no team shall carry
more than twenty-one players.
This rule will work a hardship on two
interested classes. the players them
selves and the rich teams which can
start TO the close Of every season In
this classification the New York Giants
easily lead. But the rule will be or
great benefit to the less prosperous clubs,
and II was only on their behalf that the
new rule was passed. These less pros
porous clubs always have trouble in car
rying more than twenty-One players. and
there is feeling that II the maximum
limit is brought down about to their
natural limit the result will be TO make
the field more even and equaltze the
chances Of the different clubs in tn"
pennant race.
Thomas on Board.
The new board Of directors is the same
as last years board. with the exception
Of Charles II. Thomas. president Of the
Cubs Mr. Thomas was voted OF the
board. and j. +. Gaffney. president OF
the all-conQuering braves, was given ms
seat.
There are those that aver that the
main reason for the shift was desire
to honor the man whose team hau
brought so much honor to the Natlonal
League, but even these do not contra
dict the impression that it was easier
to ask Mr. Thomas to step down ano
out, on account Of his supposedly sun
close connection with Charles w. huf
ply. than to oust any Of the othe- d.
rectors, who are. IL any one has forgot
ten, as follows. Barney Dreyfus. Charles
H. Ebbetts, Garry Herman. and IL y
Hampstead.
The club owners also decided that Darn
stormIng trips are bad: that is. barn
storming trips which follow the close
OF the regular playing season. This sub
Iect was referred to the committee OF
the constitution, with orders to attempt
to reach an agreement with the Ameri'
can League, by which such barnstorm
ing trips might he done away with.
The club owners also adopted a rue
providing that no team may report Il
training quarters before March l. Thl'
rule seems to be pretty much Of joke
even to the maGnatcs. and Secretar!
HeyIder explained that ii doubtless
would not interfere with the time-honor
ed practice of allowing hatterymen Z
little longer time TO get into training
than is required by the other member!

the Yosts.
The game was the scene Of Co.'S
tello's first appearance on the gridiron
since Thanksgiving a year ago, when
he led Georgetown to a victory over
the strong Holy Cross aggregation.
1t is a matter of record that Co.'S
tello never received an injury that re-
quired him to leave the game while
playing with the local collegians, and
IT is a peculiar freak that after COM
ing from all of his college battles un-
scathed, he should fall a victim in his
first temperance in football togs with
