There will turther contest in the courte Mr. Spalding’s letter of resignation was presented to the magnates at the second day’'s session of peace conference at the Fifth Avenue hotel. The letter was presented by James Hart, president of the Chicago club The letier was fddressed to the National League and Assoclation or Professional Base Ball clubs and reads @entlcmen: In acce of the Natonal le: Jus i 1 las sting the o whic ecember 1 1 promuigated “the fo ;mm m aff the’ po m To presidency f d been owing administra- ymote, foster, elevate e tus game of base bal Beld sport of America.

Conditions have arisen which, in my opin- fon, make It impossible at thig time fo carry out all the principles embodied in the above platform, and as no compromise or sdification of these principles will be #adefactory to me 1 have decided to dis- continue further efforts in this direction and hereby tender my resignation as presi- dent of the National league and respect- {ully insist that it be accepted without de- {"wish. to emphaticaily declare that 1 am piompted in this action solely the be. f that proloning a factional political warfare into the playing season would be steful to the public, injurious to the onal league in particular and to pro- b3 fessional base ball In general. Respect- tully, A. G. SPALDING, integ high standard of Thus ends one of the bitterest Internal | struggles that has ever shaken the Na tional league and which threatened to wreck the premier base ball organization. While Mr. Temple has not been formaily elected to the chief executive office of the league it was decided unanimously to offer him the place. Temple & Man of Means. Mr. Temple was at one time owner of the Pitteburg club, and is a man of large means. It was he who donated the Temple ups to be played for by the clubs finishing first and eecond at the end of the league season. He is known as a lover of the eport, but it was felt here tonight that he might possibly decline the honor tendered Bim because the league had decided to es- Hablish its permanent headquarters in New Work, and he, being a business man, may mot find it possible to epend all his time Bere. It has also been ded to make the offices of president and secretary-treasurer separate. The latter office will, according to the best information, be tendered to N. E. Young. Mr. Young said tonight that he would accept the office, though it necessi- tated his coming to New York and estab- lshing his officc here. Freedman and his followers contended that Spalding had never been elected presi- dent of the league and therefore could mot resign. The matter was solved by a mo. tion to simply consider the incident closed Talbott's Name Presented. As concerning the work of selecting a president for the league the name of Bd- ward B. Talbot, former owner of the New York franchise, was first proposed, but ft was said that he could not accept the office and he would not be able to come to New York to ilve. Freedman and Brush them made a proposition to do away with the office of presidcnt and for the appolntment of & committee of three members, in whose bands the governing power of the league should be placed. There was instant oppo- sition to this and a long drawn-out discus- sion. Freedman and Brush finally gave way &od the matter of the presidency was aghin taken up. Soden of Boston was mentioned, but de- clined. Hart proposed Harry Pulliam's name, but Pulliam in turn proposed William G. Temple of Pittaburg. Freedman was op- posed to the selection of any man wotil such man had come before the meeting and snpounced his attitude and the nature of hie policy in case of election. He said he did not want to vote for any man until he bad talked with him and knew what he pro- posed to do to better the base ball situa- tion. It was pointed out that Temple was & broad-mioded man and one with a repu- tation for fairness and loyaity. Freedman Demands to Know. ““There has been a lot of talk,” sald Freedman, “about taking my club away from me. 1 want 16 know what you propose doing about that. Does anybody want to take my club away from me?" One of the Spalding followers disavowed any and ‘all intentfon of @ desire to take Freedman's club away from him The question of Mr. Temple was agaln taken up and a unsolmous vote taken 1o tender him the presidency A telegram was sent to Mr. Temple, whe is now in Florida, advising him of the aes tion of the league and asking him if he would accept the presidency 1t was nearly miduight when the league meeting adjourned until tomorro: Boon. Most of the night session was taken up in discussiog the playing rules ana schedule. Tt was decided to play under the same rules as last year. The foul-strike rule was incorporated in the book of rules. This rule was in force last sesson, but was not in the “book of rules.” It was decided that the pitcher should not have more tham one minute in which 1o warm up prior to any one lnning before delivering the ball, hé nof belag allowed to déliver more than five balls before piay.
