NEW YORK. Dec. 11--Major and mi nor league committees drawing up new national baseball agreement to- night delegated to Judge Landis, high commissioner of baseball George Wharton of Philadelphia, and John Conway Toole of New York, the task of deciding the form of the document. The trio met tonight and discussed provision of the two tentitive agree ments presented today and will submit their report to the joint committees to- morrow.
 Later Judge La,ndis announced def initely that the American league meet ing would be held in Chicago next Friday and that the joint ratification meeting would probaly be held there Saturday or, if delayed, either in Chi cago or New York after New Years.
 The general conference of the com uittees, which lasted all day, was at tended by representatives of all the major league clubs except St. Louis and Chicago of the American league. | Absence of President Ban Johnson of ! the American league occasioned some surprise until Judge Landis said the mixup regarding the proposed joint meeting of the two major leagues and ! tn absence of President Johnson were due to him. He explained that in his opinion it would be impossible to get through with the preliminary discussion and work on the new agreement before next week and for that reason he no- 1 tified Presidents Johnson and Heyd- Ter that the joint session would be held in Chicago Saturday Before leaving Chicago, Judge Landis said Mir. John
 son declared anything the judge de- cided on would suit him.
 When Judge Iandis arrived ht learned there was much dissatisfaction over the change of the meeting from New York to Chicago. After the judge
 was informed that the business of l drafting the new agreement could b' disposed of by Monday he was pre-
 vailed upon to call the joint session if
 New York and 1t had been agreed t
 hold the meetings there Thursday, pro
 vided other business was out of tn way. but later this was changed.
