I'm the Vosges three violent combats
were fought yesterday on the heights

Nationals Refuse to Revoke
Twenty One Player Limit.
ADOPT SCHEDULE TODAY
Rumors of Trades Plenty, But None
Completed as Yet, It
Is Said.

NEW YORK. February 1o.-Approval
OF the 1915 playing schedule. the adop-
tion of a new waiver rule and an Off
cial decision to withhold New York
territorial rights sought by the Inter-
national League in the Bronx consti-
tuted the program before the National
League today.
The league yesterday discussed the
recalling of waivers. This custom has
been abused during the past few sea-
sons and a rule against the recall OF
waivers after they are once made
probably will be approved today.
Instead of revoking the edict that NO
any club before March each year. this
was made a hard-and-fast rule and
read into the constitution. Similar ac-
tion was taken as to the revisionUf the
player limit from twenty-five to
twenty-one. adopted at the December
meeting. The New York club repre-
to twenty-five. but this was voted
down. In addition all player managers
who participate in one or more games
during the season are to be included In
will be the maximum from May 1 to
september l, each year.
marry N. Hampstead, president of the
Giants, has declared himself against
pc. mitting the International to put a
team In the Bronx, which is equiva-
.ent to decision against the minor
ieague, as Mr.. Hempetead's organized
case ball rights would be violated.
ihis question came up at the meeting
OF the National League yesterday, and
after some discussion was laid over
until today for final adjustment. Pres
ident Tener also is against allowing
the minor league to invade the Bronx,
and 1t is thought possible that the other
ueieeates will acceoe to the wishes Of
Mr. Hampstead without further argu-
ment.
1here are rumors of many trades.
The Philadelphia club is involved in
several proposed deals, but the only
one Manager Moran is sure of is the
trade of Adams, Stock and Demaree of
the Giants for Hans Lobert. The deal
with Boston will not be settled until
.ater in the year on account of the
illness of Manager George Stallings
of the Braves.
Managers Moran, HerZog and Bresna-
nan are said to be arranging a trade.
lnfielder Niehoff of the Reds is wanted
by both the Cubs and Phillies, and II
was said that the complication would
result In big three deal be-
tween the clubs.
