Members Of The national commits
sion first offered to give the strik-
ing players a reply tonight after
The game, but the players would
not agree TO that. They demanded
a definite response before yester-
days game and refused to don their
uniforms until the matter was set
tied. The commissioners and club
owners stood pat. After an hour
Of wranglng the players gave in,
announcing that they did so only
Tor the good of baseball, on account
of the disappointment that would
be inflicted on the crowd, which had
gathered in the park while they
were scrapping with the club own
eTs and commissioners
Meanwhile the fans, wondering at
the delay, had given a demOnstra-
ton of their attitude toward base
ball when pair Of wounded sol
Giers were borne into box seats on
the shoulders Of their invaded
comrades in arms. This was dur

TO the seats reserved Tor them the
big crowd jumped 10 its feet, barred
heads, and under the leadership Of
a fan down il front, gave three
cheers for the boys who have been
in the only game that counts.
Those cheers nearly raised the roof
of The Fenway plant. They were
echoed back from the payiIions ana

out there learned the cause of them.
And still the PLAYERS Of the two
teams imagined themselves heroes.
