Pulliam Was Next.

The e president of the league was
harry c. Pulliam, a young Louisville
attorney, who was chosen head of the
league in 1903, and died while serving
his seventh year, John A. Heydler fill
ing out Mr.. Pulliam's uneXpired term.
The seventh president of the league
was Thomas J. Lynch, of New Britain,
Conn, who for years had been an
umpire in the league. The election OF
Mr.. Lynch came as a surprise to the
public, as he was never mentioned in
connection with the honor. His cleo
ton was said to have been due largely
to the fact that he was the personal
choice of the late John T. Brush. of
the New York Giants, who at that time
was the dominant figure in the league.
Mr.. Lynch continued to serve at the
head OF the organization for four years.
When he retired he was succeeded by
John K. Tener, an old-time player, who
had risen to a seat in congress and
finally to the ~goVernorship of Penn
s%ylvania. Mr.. Tener was well equipped
by experience and abilities for the du-
ties Of the office, and it is generally
acknowledged that he made a success
of the job until differences arose with
his brother members of the national
commission.
Mr.. Tener was the only former ball
player to serve in the presidency Of
the National league. Mr.. Lynch, as be-
fore stated, had spent many years Of
his LIE as an umpire.

ninth
PRESIDENT OF
NATIONAL

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 23.-John A. Heyd.
Ter is the ninth president of the Ma
tlonal league, and, incidentally. its third
secretary-treasurer. Nick Young com
blned these two offices for 81 years.
IN addition to serving as president for
is years, Harry Pulliam was secretary
treasurer for four of his seven years
as president, until Heydler took those
duties off his hands in 1907. This is
the third time in AZ years Of National
league history that the three offices Of
president, secretary and treasurer have
been combined in one man.
When the league was formed in 1879
the first mar selected to preside over
its deStinies wah Morgan G. RulkeleV.
OF Hartford, who later became nation
ally prominent as a United States sena-
tor from Connecticut. Although a
warm friend OF the game, Buckley had
llttle tlme TO devote to the executive
end OF the league and after one year
retired from the office.
Inc following year William A, HUI
bert, a Chicago lawyer, was elected
president, a position he held for six
years, showing remarkable ability, and
doing perhaps more than any other one
man Of his day for the uplift of the
national paStime.
Following the death of President Hull
bert in 1882, the league selected as his
successor, A. G. Mills, of New York, a
man % Ile same sentiment and Caliber
as MS predecessor, Mr.. Mills was re-
sponsihle for the original National
agreement. When he retired from Of
flee at the end Of two years of service
he was succeeded by Nicholas L. Young,
OF Washington, one Of the best known
flgures in baseball. Mr.. Young had act
ed as secretary and treasurer Of the
league from the day of its organization
and was master of every business detail
OF the game. He was elected president
in 1885 and continued as the chief ex-
ecutive for Is years. After the advent
Of the American league and the war
that followed, to say nothing Of inter-
nal national strife, he found the work
too strenuous and retired from office.
