SAYS COL. HUSTON
Yankee Magnate Thinks Bar
Johnson's Power Will Be
Curbed by Directors.

NEW YORK. August 13.-The arbi-
trary authority which has always been
used by President Ban Johnson will
be curbed at the meeting of the board
of directors of the American League
here tomorrow. if such action Is
within its power. According to Col
T. L. Huston of the New York club,
the body has this power. President
Jacob Rupert of the Yankees is q
member of the board.
Col. Huston said yesterday that it
was the hope of the board that car
ism be eliminated from American
League base ball.
Hereafter in the league" said
Col. Huston, I'VE want to see anybody
who is accused of anything get fair
deal. We want to see an end to
snapjudgment rule such as has been
practiced in the past. If any player
or official is accused of violation Of
the league code we want to see him
get hearing and a fair trial and be
heard before decision is made in his
case. Such arbitrary rule as has been
practiced in the American League is
un-American and it is going to be
thing of the past il it is in our power
to bring about such a change"
From this statement of the objects
of the meeting of the board of direc-
tors. it is believed that President
Johnson will be stripped of much Of
his power when he appears before
the board tomorrow. It is certain
that the board will lift the suspension
of Mays, and base ball men were OF
the opinion last night that the mat
ter would be adjusted before it was
necessary to ask for a permanent in
junction in the case on Friday.

REDS AND GIANTS CLASH
First Of Three Double Headers on

Polo Grounds.

NEW YORK. August 13.-The most
important series Of the National
League pennant race thus far this
season began here today, when Gin
cinnati. leading New York by four
and one-half games. met the Giants
in the first Of three successive double
headers. The two teams have alter
mated in the lead almost from the
start of the season, when Brooklyn
set the pace for a short time.
Moran's men. who have not en-
countered q losing streak, have been
more successful than their eastern
rivals during the past few weeks,
gradually widening the gap between
first and second places. To wipe out
the Reds lead McGraw's men must
win FIVE of the six contests, while a
severe setback would be difficult to
overcome in the remaining thirty-six
games of the season.
The Reds and Giants have broken
even in twelve games. in which the
latter outscored their opponents, a
runs to SO. Ruether and Sallee each
have won two out Of three with New
York: Eller, one in three. while
Luque had victory and Fisher a
defeat. Barnes of the Giants. who
