The object of this meeting was to discuss the reorganization of the National League at the expiration of the ten-year agreement, and consider such measures of reform as might be needful in building up the National League, correcting some of the evils that had weakened Its influence. There were no plans, but each member was invited to express his individual views as to what legislation was needed to benefit, improve and more perfectly safeguard the national game. Mr. Hart, for some reason, did not remain long at this meeting. The discussion was carried on by the remaining gentlemen for several hours, and I was requested to develop some of the suggestions that had been offered and render them presentable to other members of the league. My business engagements prevented me from preparing a report at the spring meeting, in 10Jl, as I -had expected. I made some progress during the spring months and laid the foundatio for a code along new lines with regard to the government and control of players, umpires, managers, clubs, club officials and leagues. FALLEN INTO DISREPUTE. "The National League had fallen into disrepute. Its executive officer was weak, and the authority given him under the law j was also Inadequate. Clubs were not held to strict accountability, and if a law or measure was deemed obnoxious, some way was found for avoiding its enforcement. Proper discipline over players on the field was not maintained; incompetent .umpires continued to exasperate those who witnessed the game, and there was a general failure in the enforcement of law and in the conduct of the sport. "In our conference in the fall of 1000 it was unanimously agreed that the law should be so plain and the authority so absolute that no club official, no management, no umpire, no player, should be able to violate it and escape penalty; and It was held that if a proper code governing all the details that are involved in baseball could be so framed as to place the power in the hands of an executive board, that there was ability enough in the League from which to select a board that would grapple with all the evils that had tended to bring it into disfavor with public and press. "A code was prepared which was designed to secure the same reform and control in baseball that was obtained by the Jockey Club when it rescued racing from the bad rtpute into which it had fallen, and placed It upon the plane of respectability. In racing it matters not how important a personage may be, nor what his reputation or standing may be, the jockey or the owner of a stable can be barred from the track for violation of rules and no influence can reinstate him. The spectacle of a jockey questioning the decision of a judge is almost unknown. "It was along these lines that we worked in our efforts to develop a code that would dignify and benefit baseball, and not un-' til long after Mr. Spalding's effort to form v. trust did we submit our ideas to attorneys in New York to ascertain whether a community of interests could be legally obtained which would at the same time preserve club individuality and give control to a governing board which should have full authority to administer the affairs of the League, regardless of any opposition that might arise from one or two clubs. ACTS OF ANARCHY. "There are several instances where measures of vital interest to the League have been defeated by the opposition of one club. I hold that if the League gives the authority to some executive board to act in such matters, then there is no necessity for using Mr. Spalding's redhandled ax of anarchy and banishment to protect the League and sport, and it was to this that we who first met in conference were committed. "We secured the opinion of a law firm in New York that such an organization could be perfected and this was but one of the features which we derired to submit to the League for its consideration, and would Pave done so, discussing it in all of its bearings, rejecting or adopting it in whole or in part, as might be determined, had not the presidential and other aspirations of Mr. Spalding interfered and obstructed further legislation. As it was, no measure or plan or code of laws for the reorganization of baseball or for the control and management of the game or the individuals connected with it was ever presented to the League or was ever discussed during a League session, and therefore all statements that have been published broadcast that I was responsible for trying to force a truat upon my fellow-members of the League are not true. My views, whatever they were, were never given to the League, but such rules as had been formulated had received the approval of Messrs. Soden and Conant, Mr. Robison and Mr. rreedman to this extent, that all thought well enough of them to have them discussed and considered by our associates in the League, content to allow the league as a body to pass judgment on them. "If what had been prepared had been utterly bad. destructive of baseball interests, pernicious as those who without any knowledge of the matter have written it to be, they would certainly not have had the support of the gentlemen named. The League, never having had any explanation or discussion of what was contemplated, is of course ignorant of just what was involved. There were four clubs in the League who had views, ideas and a pretty good understanding as to what was necessary In reorganizing it, and how it should be done, and were prepared to debate the propriety of It all. CLUNG TO SKIRTS OF MOSES. "There were four other clubs that had no vi ews, presented no ideas, offered no suggestions' simply clinging to the skirts of their Moses and relying upon him to protect them from all the evils and Imaginary dangers that surrounded them, and instead of allowing those who had views to express them, they preferred to block legislation and sit and ballot for Mr. Spalding. "Mr. Spalding's tru?t scheme stalked forth in disguise, veiled in mystery, wearing gum shoes and the methods to be employed in forming it were masked from those through whoso aid he sought to enmesh the others. "In opposition to this, the Boston, New York. St. Louis and Cincinnati clubs were anxious to have the searchlight of discussion thrown upon their conceptions arid views, and leave all to th wisdom and judgment of their associates, and there i no law in the National League that compels a club to vote for a measure which it does not approve." Spaldiiig'n Lust Word to Ilrush. NEW YORK. Jan. 13. A. G. Spalding to-n'ght gave out a letter, ditto to-day, which he sent to John T. Brush in answer to Brush's letter of Jan. 8. He says in part: "I positively refuse to have the parentage of this infamous so-called Freedman-Brus't trust scheme sworn on to me You iold me in Mr. "Hurt's office In Chicago and in hi presence that Mr. Andrew Freedman was its father. You amaze me bv staling that this trust scheme 'was never discussed In any league meeting.' Mr. Young told me it was discussed to the exclusion of nearly everything else for nearly three days at the recent league meeting, and for corroboration of Mr. Young's statement ycu are referred to the ortlcial stenographic verbatim report of Dial meeting. Mr. Soden s letters to me also ihow that this trust scheme was dUcussed at leng.n in the last league meeting, and also at conference at Red Bank, last August,

in the presence of Messrs. Freedman. Brush. Soden and Roblson." Spalding also tells Brush that this letter closes his correspondence with him.

HoliUon to SpaldinK. CLEVELAND, O.. Jan. 13. Frank de Haas Robison. president of the St. Louis National League club, to-day wrote an open letter to A. G. Spalding relative to an Interview with the latter published in Sunday's paiers. Mr. Robison's letter follows: Cleveland. O.. Jan. 13. "Mr. A. G. Spalding. Albemarle Hotel. New York: "Dear Sir Sunday's papers contain an interview given out by you in answer to my interview and letter to you. In your Utters of Jan. 2. i2, and Jan. 7, and made public by you, are the following paragraphs: "From letter Jan 2: I trust everybody will feel at liberty to express their views fully, for upon these various expressions to a certain extent will depend my actions in the future.' "From letter Jan. 7: A baseball revolution is in progress and timid ones who are afraid of shot and shell had better keep off the firing line and get to the rear.' "As you have retired so quick, comment is unnecessary." Denial from Hnrt. CHICAGO, Jan. 13. James Hart to-day denied that he made announcement to Messrs. Brush and Robison that -vir. Spalding held an option on the American League. Mr. Hart says: "I never told anybody that Spalding had an option on the American League. When I met Brush he asked me If there was an understanding between Johnson and Spalding, and I told him that 1 thought there was. He asked me if I knew what this understanding was and I informed him that I did not. That was all that was said concerning r. JohnsorC Hutch Jennings Barred. CHICAGO, Jan. 13. President Johnson to-day annonced that Hugh Jennings is barred from the American League, thus putting another obstacle in the plans of Manager McGraw to install the once famous "Big Four" of Jennings. Kelley, Keeler and McGraw, again at Baltimore. PICKING OUT A TEAM. Purdue Athletic Director Has a. Hard Proposition to Solve. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LAFAYETTE, Ind., Jan. 13. The work of buildin? up a baseball team at Purdue has been actively begun by C. I. Freeman, physical director. The new team must b constructed almost entirely of green material. Among the new men who will report for work are Ray Jamison, brother of Coach Jamison; Joe Hubler, a midget catcher, brother of George Hubler, of the old Indianapolis team; Clerer, a young pitcher of some promise from southern Indiana, and Guert G. Fry, an outfielder irom Cincinnati. About thirty other avallabhs also have made themselves known. Of the old men only Shortstop McKee, First Baseman Leslie, Second Baseman Cornell and Pitcher Ide remain. Unless some exceptional material develops Purdue's chances are slim for a winning team. The schedule has not as yet been announced. ACTION AGAINST F. S. B. L. I. II. L. FOIU1IDS ITS MF.X TO BOWL IX M1W ASSOCIATION. As n. Result Several of the Tenms Were Incomplete nt the Opening Gaines Last ieht. The opening of tho Fraternal Social Bowling Association's championship reason last night was anything but auspicious, as President Havelick, of the Indianapolis Bowling League, notified the members of that league, who intended bowling with teams in the Fraternal Association, that the league directors had taken a vote on the matter and decided to obey the bylaws, which provide that no member of the league can participate in games in another league. This action of the I. B. L. cast a gloom over the opening night of the Fraternal Association, and part of the teams were incomplete. , The Independent League had taken previous action on the matter and decided to permit bowlers to participate in the association games this season. President Keeler, of the F. S. B. L., notified the captains of the association to not insist on any bowler who is a member of the I. B. L. playing in last night's game. Mr. Keeler feels that the action of the I. B. L. was rather belated In view of the fact that the plans of the association had been known for some time. He said that if the Indianapolis League had wanted to prevent its bowlers from playing with any team in the association it should have taken action several days ago. The Royal Arcanum team failed to make its appearance at the Marion alleys, and a team composed of 'Patriarchs Militant was substituted. Several of the teams endeavored to give as many of its "brothers" as possible a chance to bowl, and tight and ten men were used by two or three of the teams. The scores follow: B. P. O. E. VS.
