Il am not sure Mr.. Mack said,
that some of the National League
clubs represented at the meeting do
not need a housekeeping. No one
in or out of base ball can point a
finger at the five American League
clubs that were not represented. They
are all clean; not one of them has
ever caused any trouble. The club
that came nearest doing it was our
own in the Perry case. When we
knew we were right and threatened
to take the decision of the national
commission into court, We were urged
not to do it. 1 stood up in our meet
ing and said if it were the judgment
of the members of the league not
to press the matter, so as not to
hurt the game, I bowed to their will
and did nothing. And yet six months

Could Have Averted Scandal.
'If all the American League clubs
had supported Mr.. Johnson as they
should the present base ball scandal
would never have occurred. Years ago
he wanted to take measures to stop
gambling. but never received proper
support.
"The American League has no objec-
ton to the National League trying to do
something to uplift the game. We Will
join them in anything that will raise
the standard of base ball. The National
League seems to send out the impress
sion that everything is harmonious
within its organization. | don't know
whether it is true, but l do know there
is harmony in the majority of the
American League clubs and we are not
going to meet until we know what's
