 IS BEING HELD UP
National Commission Rules That
 Courts Decide in Controversy

Cincinnati, O., Oct. 3O.-Relative to the protest filed by the Detroit American league club on the pay- ment of third place prize money of the worlds championship baseball se- ries to the New York Americans, the National baseball commission ruled yesterday to withhold the money
 The commission said by holding the money until the courts hand down a decision in the dispute, it would not be in conflict with the nu- merous restraining orders that have been issued either against President E. B. Johnson of the American league or the Detroit club.
 The situation arose from the con- troversy over the pitcher Carl Mays case. The finding of the commission was signed by Chairman August Herr mann and John A. Heydler.
 Owners Get Busy.
 The Hull in the baseball war that followed Judge Warmers decision in the Mays case ended yesterday when Cos. Ruppert and Huston, owners of the Yankees, issued a statement in which they give their view of the courts findings and declare they inn mediately will demand the National Commission pay the Yankees the share of the worlds series receipts due the club for finishing third in the American league race. In as much as the National commission in answer to Frank Navin's protest in behalf of Detroit has decided to within old the money until the matter is disposed of in the courts, any demands made upon the commission by the Yam kees will be of little avail until a legal decision is rendered.
 The National commissions decision to await the courts findings is in ac- cord with the legal actions brought by the Yankees against Ban Johnson and is directly in opposition to the views expressed by Johnson and his followers that league baseball is a closed corporation and it's affairs nev- CT should be aired in the courts as it's operations are outside the pale of civil law.
 In their statement Co.'s. Ituppert and Huston declare Judge Warmers decision in the Mays case confuteS the arguments of Johnson and his fol- lowers regarding the wide divergence of civil and baseball law.
