Landis base
 ball commissioner of baseball with su- preme powers. President Johnson ana other major league representatives also
 signifed their' willingness to concede
 points demanded by the minor leagues, so that the smaller organizations could join in the reorganization.
 NATIONAL APPROVES The National league which was instru- mental in furthering the reorganization movement, already had signified Its ap- proyal of the New York agreement and President Johnson's statement thus as sured its acceptance.
 The chief demand of the minor leagues, which will meet tomorrow. concerned rep-
 resentation in the government Of the game. with assurance that pasepaii commissioner who would meet their ap-
 proNal would be selected to succeeded Judge Landis when his term expires seven years hence.
 President Johnson tonight said all or the baseball club owners he had talked to were willing to give the minors a voice III the selection of any future baseball com missioners and that National league ciup owners had expressed the same opinion George Maines, NJ. H. Sexton and other minor league representatives who nave been leaders in the movement not to slsl any agreement unless it gave the minors what they considered fair deal. to- night said that the statements which nad been made by President Johnson ana

Logan, w. Va, January 9-Captain Anderson C'Devil Anse'D Hatfield, one time Confederate army officer and for many years thereafter one of the most famous and picturesque feudists in the mountains of western West Virginia, who died Friday, was today buried be- side his two sons, Troy and Elias, in the family plot, 300 feet beneath the mountain range which sheds it's water in the Big Sandy on the one side, and the Guayandotte on the other. The obse- quies were attended by Il survivors, chll- dren, almost all of them, 40 grandchil- dren, several great grandchildren and about 75 direct descendants.
 The funeral throughout was character ized by a series of dramatic occurrences which those present considered fitting for the burial of Devil Anse." Before the march to the cemetery began, the hands of two of the dead mans sons, long estranged brothers. were clasped over the coffin. These were Gap" Hat field, the fathers namesake, and feud lieutenant, and Dr. E. R. Hatfield of Charleston. The reconciliation was fol lowed by a general demonstration of ap- proval and sympathy among them at the funeral.
 READY FOR BAPTISM
 As the procession moved, the restor. ation of good will between the brothers formed the chief subject of discussion and at the grave, before the body was lowered, Cap" Hatfield addressed Uncle Dyke Garrett. an old preacher and friend of the family, and told him that he had made his peace with Cod and was ready to be baptized whenever the minister would say the word
 q will baptze you, boy" responded the old clergyman. "in the very hole where baptized your pappy.'
 To this "Cap" Hatfield dramatically raised his hands above his head in the attitude of solemnly vowing and declared that he was done with fighting. that ir his heart there no longer ranked malice and that if any man sought his iifeblooo he would not resist.
