Hartford, Feb 2S.-The tudlclary committee reported today in favor ol the bill relating to the obstruction or hiphwavs bv trains.

was postponed until tomorrow to
await the action Of the National asso-

Redistribution of minor league terri
tory. Harry w. Stahlhefer, president
of the league, was unwilling to make
any predictions in regard to the 1918
season. Some of the club owners, he
said, had expressed willingness to
suspend. "If we decide to start,
shall recommend the adoption Of a
81 game schedule instead of 120
games" Stahlhefer said. Then If the
war seriously threatens our opera
tons, we will be in position to end
out season without serious loss.
Attendance figures for last eason

cent over normal conditions. Some OF
the clubs drew less than $4,000 per-
