Philadelphia Report Says Dissolution of Organization Will Follow
 Signing of Peace Pact.

Philadelphia, Jan. 10.--The resig- nation of Garry Hermann of Cincin- natl, chairman of the national com mission, and the dissolution of the commission which has been the court of last resort for baseball affairs since 1904, will come with the final disposition of all matters relating to the peace agreement between organ ized baseball and the Federal league, according to information received here from an authoritative source. Both the American and National leagues are said to favor the plan to do away with the commission and it had become known yesterday that the peace terms have been finally settled at the time, the recent meeting In Cincinnati would have been the final one
 The fact that the members of the commission, which is composed o1 Ban Johnson, president of the Ameri- can league. John K. Tener, president of the National league, and Garry Hermann, had the dissolution of the body in view became known at the | meeting in Cincinnati, and it was this that caused the delay in the reor- ganization of the commission to act for another year.
 In view of the many difficult prob lems which might develop, however with the demise of the Federal league it was thought best to go on, and the old officers were reelected for another term.
 An amicable agreement has beer reached, and the dissolution of the commission will occur before the close of another championship season, i is stated on the highest authority.

RYAN TO STAGE COMEBACK Local Fayorite May Meet Rocco in
 This City, January 21.

Joe Ryan the Pride of New Bri- tain,'' will in all probability stage a comeback at the next boxing exhibi- tion here January 21, when he will meet Joe Rocco of Hartford in the curtain raiser of six rounds. Ryan is training hard, and is in the best shape of his career, and his friends are confident that he will be able to give the sturdy little Italian battler from the Capitol city stiff argument. Rocco is also in fine shape, and is scehduled to meet Joe Tierney of New York, at Riverview, next Thurs day evening.

Willard and 1916.

On the theory that it takes at least two to establish an argument, Jess Willard can hardly look to 1916 with any great cheer.
 Jess may be collecting some easy kale for bowling over a set-up or two, and this would probably cheer him up as greatly as if he could meet a regu- lar opponent-boxers in the main being built that way. But so far as adding to his fame is concerned, Jess might as well go back to the circus disguised as a giraffe or a dinosaru- rus and stay there. Unless prospects change quickly the spotlight will sI end no great part of it's time sur rounding the mastodonic Kansan. Which so far as the gayety of nations and the uplft of the ages are con- cerned, may be just as well.

NEW BOSTON OWNER
 PLEASES STALLINGS
Manager of Braves Did Not Know Haughton Was After Club
 No Changes Expected

Boston, Jan. 1o.-The sale of the Boston Braves to Percy D. Haughton coach of the Harvard football team and Arthur c. Wise a banker of this city, was a complete surprise to Geo. T. Sta1lings, manager of the club, ac- cording to word received from him to- day. ,g
 Stallings, from his plantation at Haddock, Ga, sent a. telegram to Haughton thanking him for the conh- dence Haughton had expressed in Stallings ability as manager, and ex- tending his good wishes for the new venture. Stallings admitted the news was entirely unexpected.
 Much interest is manifested as to the effect Haughton's new interests will have upon the Harvard football coaching problem. His contract as head coach with the Crimson author ities has expired and he has made no announcement as to whether he would undertake the direction of the eleven again, although his statement that he would devote his time In, the future to the interests of the Braves is con- sidered significant sn- .m
 Haughton announced last night that there will be no immediate changes in the Braves, and it is doubtful if any will be de until Manager Stall lings is conferred with .a
 It Is felt by MT. Haughton and his associates that the baseball public hereabouts desired local control, and for this reason they believe that the team can be made financial success. While the team will be run along business-like lines, it will be the am bition of the new owners to regain the worlds championship, and to do this they will spend money. in an effort ! to build up a pennant-winning team.

 There also is the case of Connie Mack and 1916. Connie is now the only manager in baseball who has won six pennants. McGraw is next with five flags, but Connie heads the list. Connie, like McGraw, must start the year from the cellar, but whether he can break from the rut is doubtful. He may work his way up as high as seventh place, but he will hardly beat this mark.
 Connie seems to be discouraged. He had two pennant winners to break up under him, and then he went forth again and reconstructed the third the McInnis, Barry Collins, Baker combination. With this array, one of the greatest that ever played, he won

 Breckenridge, right forward for the home boys was in fine fettle and as result he rung up three pretty field goals and also annexed nine points from the foul line. The team displayed the best team work of the season and the followers of the ag gregation are confident that they will make their opponents in the league hustle if they are to be beaten out of the championship.
