"Gargano and I always have been good
friends and still are" Herman is quoted in
tbe report from New Orleans today

NEW YORK. June 10

NEW YORK, June 10.
It is rumorcd here today that John J.
McGraw plans to resign as manager Of the
Giants and link his interests in baseball
with Charley Comiskey, Of the White Sox,
If he is suspended for the remainder Of the
season by the directors OF the National
League, He lost the first round of the
battle yesterday when President Tener was
upheld.
McGraw will supply the final chapter to-
day in the National Leagues probe Of Pres
ident Tcncr's action in fining him, and Nc
Graw's own action in denouncIng Tener in
interviews It is understood the New York
club has ordered the Giant boss to appear.
Having vindiCated Tener for every step
he took in the controversy the board of
directors Of the league reached the decision
that McGraw. to maintain his standing,
must either repudiate the charges he is
alleged to have made or suhstantiato them.
Whether further punishment will be given
him II he refuses to substantiate them has
not been stated.
A stormy session is almost certain If
MCGraw has been quoted correctly. The
fiery director Of the Giants never has been
known to back down an inch from posi-
tion. He is known to have gathered state
mcnts from number Of persons who saw
the melee between himself and Umpire
Byron at Cincinnati, declaring Byron the
aggressor. lie Is expected to back up his
charges Of favoritism by Tcncr with the
demand that Byron be given punishment in
keeping with the fine and suspension plaS-
tered on himself Personal charges flung at
Tener will form another part Of the hearing.
