The Calamity Howler

A dog sat out in the midnight
chill and howled at the beamlng
moon; his knowledge Of music was
strictly nil and his voice was out of
tune.
And he howled and howled as the
hours went by, while lodging the
bricks we threw, till the moon was
low in the western sky, and his
voice was split in two.
And there wasn't thing at which
to howl, over which pup should
weep, and the course Of the dog was
wrong and foul, for the people were
wild to sleep.
There are plenty of men like that
blamed fool hound, who yell when
there's nothing wrong, disturbing
the country with senseless sound

HERMANN is
READY TO QUIT
Puts It Up to Heydler and johnson
to Say Whether He Should
Resign as National
Chairman.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
CINCINNATI. o., Jan. S.-Garry
Hermann today put 1T up to John
Heydler, president of the National
league, and Ban Johnson, president
Of the American league, to say wheth-
er he should Immediately resign as
national chairman.
Hermann asked them to make
the decision when he rendered his
annual report as chairman at the
annual meeting of the commission
here.
Herrmann's report recommended
that the commission should not elect
officers at this time, and then said:
I'm the meantime, IL my colleagues
are OF the opinion that the commits
sion should operate temporarily
without chairman, I will be glad to
tender my resignation Immediately.
In his report Hermann said in
part:
II quote from my last annual re-
port as follows:
"Inasmuch as there is a diverg-
ence of views between the two par
ties of the first part to the national
agreement as to the continuation Of
the commission as constituted and
the qualifications of its chairman, or
the substitution therefor of one-man
tribunal, | strongly recommend that
the election OF officers be deferred
until an agreement has been reached
on these points
Having recommended year ago
that the election of officers be de-
ferred for the reasons above stated.
I<r 90 trp &hot I4P, r,ff
conclusions with respect to this mat
ter have been reached either by the
two leagues or the committees rep
resenting them, it must be apparent
that there should not be any election
of officers at this time. In making
this statement T want 1t understood
that it Is not done with view on
my part to hold onto the office which
/ now occupy as your chairman, but,
on the contrary, believe that the
question in controversy should be
taken up By the committees already
appointed for this purpose by the
two leagues, as well as yourselves,
for adjustment at the earliest pos
sible period; and having In mind thai
there will probably be joint con
ference between the members OF the
TWO InaJOG leagues Willill d very lew
weeks, that the matter should be
definitely determined either previous
thereto or at that time.
During the past year the national
agreement, insofar as It pertains to
the national association, has been
abrogated. It seems to me the first
thing to be determined Is the ques.
ton whether new agreement should
be entered into at this time with the
minors. Personally. I am not Keen
for new agreement until the Balti-
more Federal league case that was
tried in Washington, and has now
beer taken up on appeal, has been
finally disposed Of. because as mat.
tiers now stand, II j am correct in
nay contention, the national agree.
