That historic stamping ground.of the Rational Ieapue officials, the Fifth Avenue Hotel, was this afternoon full of. buzzing conversation, bursts of laughter, mysterious conferences, earnest expostulation and heated argu mentation. It was the annual meeting of the oldest and greatest baseball organiza tion in America, and no meeting of recent years has had a more (important bearing on the national sport. Shortly before noon Nick Young, who was'Standing in the lobby near Jim Hart, said be must get the Board of Directors together, as there was a great deal oi work to do. At this Mr. Hart took from his pocket three bulfey rolls of manu script, and said: "Mr. Young, this is a matter I desire to have brought to the attention of your board." One of the three bundles of paper con sisted of 20 pages of foolscap, covered with type-writing. The subject deat with was the May in which the Xational"T.eague race ended, and the document was aminute res ume of the charges against the iXew York club and the circumstances on which the charges were founded. Mr. Har; also ex plained hi reasons for making the charges, and the board was asked to consider the matter and render a decision. Tlie Directors in Session. The Board of Directors went into session at once and began to wrestle with Hart's statement. For hours the directors re mained in conference, and when they did finally emerge John B. Day remarked that "the championship was awarded toBoston." Immediately on the adjournment of the board the Xationa! League as a body went into session. Secretary Young called the reporter in after the meeting and read his minuter This is his official report: The Secretary presented the protest of the Chi cago club against counting the games j laved or and between the Xew York and Boston clubs on the grounds of the latter September 2S 20, 30, and asked the Board of Directors to investigate as follows: "First "Why President Day wanted, as he is quoted as saying, the Bostons to win the championship? 'Second "Why the playing of the two citra games was arranged after Mr. Dav ar rived in Boston, Monday, September 28? "Third Why the Xew York club played two extra games if they were in such a hclplclv weak condition? "Fourth Why the Xew York club further weakened it team by laying off such irood players as ISusie, Buckley, Con nor and Biehardson from such emphatically incipient games as thdse in question? "Fifth Why the Chicago club was not invited to give its consent to the playing of these extra games?" lloston Awarded the Fennant. The Board of Directors thus condensed Vrcsidcnt Hart's voluminous charges into a serie of fnc leading questions. Then the report goes on: Alter a carctul considera tion of all the statements and evidence pre sented, the board finds as follows: First That the statement credited to Mr. Dav is whollv untrue. Second That the arrangements for the plaving of double eames could nothavebeen made except with the management of the Xew York club cither before or after their armal in Boston on Monday, September 2. In this case the usual custom was ob served. Boston having obtained the neces siry consent of six clubs. The double uames were arranged according to the rules governing postponed games, and were en tirely legal and ia accordance with the Leagr Initiation. Third That it appears from the evidence presented throush the representatives of the Investigating Committee of the Xew York club, that at the time the double came were arrangedthe club wascomplcted with the exception of Husie and John Fw lng and the subsequent weakened condition of the club was not anticipated bv the man agement. The evidence riions that John Kwm: on September 21, was injured in the New York-Philadelphia game of that date, and was not in condition to take part in anv game uptil October 1. The evidence lnrther showed that Mr. Day gave B-isie permission to remain at home previous to the arrange ment ol the double games, and that he was not considered an important factor in the Boston series, because of the f.ict that out of the eight games pitched against thai chit), the record shows that it had won but one. linger ConnorV Case. In the case of Connor, the evidence shos that he was excused from participating in Mondav's game September 29, and received permission to go to Watcrbury, Conn., on important private business, w ith the full expectation that he would lie present to take part in the games scheduled for Tues day and Wednesday, September 20 and 30; that he left Waterbury Tuesday and was delayed by a railroad wreck which rendered it impossible for him to reach Boston for the games of September 20. He played in Wednesday's games. In the cist; of" Ilich ardson, lie took part in the games of Sep tember 2S and 20 and presented himself in uniform on the 30th, but was obliged to retire on account of illness, and was unable to take part in any subsequent championship game. In the case of Buckley, the records and evi dence show that his thumb was injured by a foul tip in a game played September 28, and that he was compelled to retire and did not participate on account of such injury in ai.v of the subsequent championship games played by the Xew York club. In relation to the complaint that the Chi cago eluf was not invited to give its con sent to the playing of double games, the board finds that the necessary consent had been obtained Irom six clubs and the con sent of Chicago was unnecessary. There port was unanimously adopted." The Sec retarv's annual report was then read, after which a resolution awarding the pennant to Boston was adopted. X. E. Young was then re-elected Secretary for the twenty second consecutive year, and the meeting adjourned. SETTLED THE KATTEB. Pitcher Charley King- Terms Arc Definite ly Accepted by Manager Fonrers. Pitcher Charley King and Mauager Powers came to a definite agreement yester day and as a result the manager wired President Young that the Xew York club had accepted King's terras to play next sea sou. Manager Powers was in Cincinnati yester day and early in the morning Kingwircd him to the effect that he, K'ng, would agree to the terms mentioned on the day previous. Yesterday afternoon King re ceived the following dispatch from Manager Powers: "Have accepted vour terms ana have notified President Young that you belong to I Xew York. I will bring contract for yon to Pittsburg as I return." - It is, therefore, settled that King is to be a Giant next year at a salary of $4,000 and a good slice of advance money. He expects that Manager Powers while in Cincinnati will sign Jack Boyle to catch for him. Last evening Director Kerr, of the local club, met King and was surprised to lcam that he .had agreed to go to Xew York. Mr. Kerr was under the impression that Mr. O'Xeil had made King an offer, but King denied that an offer ot any kind had been made to him by the local club after he was released. ABEL1 QUITS IT. Be Decides to Withdraw From the Brook lyn Clnb Owing to Quarrels. Xew Yokk, Xov. 11. Special. The bomb which has been sizzling in the camp of the Brooklyn League club for the past month exploded yesterday with such a loud report that there will probably be a most uncomfortable feeling in the meeting of the League this morning at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Director F. A Abell has decided to step down and out, and has offered his stock in the club for sale. His action is directly due to a misunderstanding with Director Jfoscph J. Dovle. To understand the effect of Mr. Abell's latest step it is necessary to state that the stock he has placed on sale is one-half the capital tock in the old Brooklyn Baseball Club, limited, which has not yet succeeded in consolidating with the Brooklvn Plavers' League Club. The latter organization has not paid over the last 510,000 of the 530,000 cash payment necessary to bind the two clubs together, consequently, baseball in Brooklvn has been and is now entirely de penden?upon the. club controlled by Abell, Doyle and Byrne. Th Players' "League capitalists do riot figure in the matter at all. Mr. Abell's withdrawal means a serious blow to the Brooklyn Club. He is its heaviest financial backer and has been called upon more than once to put his hand deep down. in his pocket to help the club along. This he has done willingly at all times. Xow, however, his trouble with Mr. Doyle has widened into such a breach that recon ciliation becomes an impossibility. Mr. Abell positively refuses to have any further business connections with Mr. Doyle and has decided to get out of baseball as far as the Brooklvn Club is concerned. LOTS OF BUH0ES. The Baseball Magnates are Cansinj; Any Amount of Conflicting Stories. Xew- York, Xov. 11. 5xi-;7. All kinds of rumors are current to-night in baseball circles here relative to a settle ment of the trouble between the League and Association. It is stated that a secret con ference is going on between representatives of the two parties with the objecting of formulating a plan of settlement. Every body is advocating peace and threatening what they will do if it is not reached. One rumor is that Baltimore and St. Louis are likely to come into the League and that Brooklyn will join the Association and that an Association club will be in Chicago. Another rumor is that the Bos ton A A club is to be bought ont by the the League. It is certain, however, that efforts are being made to reach a settlement and to-morrow may bring forth something sensational. The Bnckeyes Are Doomed, Cincinnati. Xov. 11. Columbus is doomed. Xo doubt of this now exists. The Association will at its next meeting buy its franchise outright. Xow that it is settled that the clnb will not be in the field next season a wild scramble is taking place on the part of the Association managers, who are anxious to secure several of the valuable players of the team, such as Crooks, Knell, Duffee, Twitchell and Catchers Donohne and Dowsi The Athletics, Milwaukee, Baltimore, and it is suspected President VondcrAhe, all want Second Baseman Crooks, who is considered an Al infielder. All of these clubs and Boston and the new Chicago Association team are hot after Pitcher Knell, who is considered the big gest catch of the lot. Von der Abe wants him badly. Tiie highest bidder will secure the pri7c Manager Billie Barnie, of the Athletics, is on the trail now. a he Boston champions will try Jenane on first base. Duffee will be tried by the Athletics. Washington will secure Twitchell, Dono hue. Dowse and Pitcher Easton. And this is the wav the St. Louis Post-Dispatch dis tributes the remains! Signed Woodcock. Yesterday afternoon, WoodcocS, a Xew England League pitcher, was signed by the Pittsburg Club. Another young blood, named Murphy, of the same league, was signed to catch for the local club. The players are young but promising. THE TDBF CONGRESS An Important Bute Adopted Relating to 3-Year-Old Banners. Chicago, Xov. 11.

Six weeks ago, when it was decided the horse should retire for the winter, Dr. Shep herd, a veterinary surgeon, blistered him, but Tcnny's legs, then not in the best con dition, have become worse and are now nearly twice their normal size. Smith Denies the Charges. George Smith, the local sprinter, yester day made a vigorous reply to the charges preferred against him relative to last Satur day's foot nice. Smith frankly states that be lost the race because Farrell is a better runner than he is. Smith has taken much to heart the accusations made against him. A Shoot at Bnultlork. Braddock, Xov. 11.

Blue rocks and live birds will be shot at. PB0FESSI0HAL BOXING. The New Tork Athletic Clnb Passes a Very Significant Resolution. Xew York, Xov. 1L Special At the regular monthly meeting of the Board oi Governors of the Xew Yorlt Athletic Club, held at the club house last evening, the fol lowing was passed: "That inasmuch as the committee ap pointed by the club have been unable to find any amateur boxers who are willing to com pete for prizes of the value and character prescribed by the constitution of the Aran teur Athletic Union, the committee be re lieved lrom further duty, and the club will give a professional boxing entertainment as soon as the preliminaries can be arranged." The resolution is significant. The last boxing tournament of the Xew York A. C. was of a professional character, President A. G. Mills having decided to put a stop to the practice of paying "amateurs" the "long green" or goin nuggets. The affair was a success, but as there was some criti cism both inside and outside of the club on professionals competing for amateur organ izations the board decided to give "ama teurs" one more chance to be amateurs, and the Athletic Committee was empowered to arrange an amateur boxing tournament if it was possible. The committee put the mat ter in the hands of Benny Williams and Charley White. Williams had for years been arranging "amateur" fights for the X. Y. A C. and knew the fraternity, while White is hand and glove with them. But no personal influence "went," and failure was the result. Hence the resolution, and the only inference can be that there are no amateur boxers that are not in the ''duffer" class. The decision of the board will be favora ble to the sporting members of the club. The two liappitst men in the building were Mike Donovan and his assistant, Denny Butle-, who had been anxiously awaiting the result of the meeting. They sat down, and then ensued some queer figuring, as overheard bv a reporter. "Well, Mike," said Butler, "now let's get to work. Who'll we get?" Butler's list of men included Pete McCoy, Walter Campbell, Jim Glynn, Bill Davis, Jack Myers, Charlev McCarthy, Jimmy McHale, Paddy Smith, Mike dishing and Patsy Kerrigan. An attempt will be mada to get one of Paddy Slavin's brothers, now in the city, to fight one of the foregoing. The first professional entertainment will be held on Satnrdav evening, Xovember 28, and will doubtless be a corker. Mike Don ovan wants all "amateurs" to write to him in case they wish to come out in their true colors. PE0TESTED AGAIN. The Oranse Athletic Clnb Definitely Refuse to Give Up Donovan's Prizes. Xew York, Xov. 11. Special. The Orange Athletic Club annual games last June had among the competitors "Push" Donovan, the clever professional sprinter who won the 100 and 220 yard dashes from Victor Mapcs and a field of tarters in hol low style He entered from the Mohican Athletic Clnb, of Xewark, under the name of Frank Dolan. He was protested by Victor Mapes, who a short time ago was drowned oft Fire Island. Donovan's style of running was clearly that of a professional, but hit identity was not established until quite recently. The case, however, was dropped by the Protest Com mitter of the Metropolitan Association, as no one came forth in Mr. Mapes place to prove the charges, in compliance with the 90 days rule Yesterday Arthur Varian, of the Orange Athletic Club, Chairman of the Metropoli tan Association Protest Committee, said that he would not give up the medals to Donovan even if he had to take the case to court. He notified W. C. Anfcrman, of the Xew York Athletic Clubt who finished sec ond to Donovan in both races, that he would receive a second protes'. Anferman imme diately forwarded one. Mr. varian pro poses "to bring the case up for action. Before Donovan sailed for Enrope, Harry Darrin, the English runner, told Victor Mapes that Donovan had offered to sell out his claim on the prizes for $5. H'AULIFFE AND MYEB. Tlie Champion Says lie Can't Understand What the Cyclone Wants. Chicago, Xov. 11. Spfda'. Jack MeAuliffe, the light weight champion of America, while in Bloomington was asked whether he ever expected to meet Billy Myer again. "I can't tell about that," he answered. "He doesn't seem to be anxious to fight for even money. In fact, I could never succeed in making any satisfactory arrangements with him. But, if things could be fixed up to suit, I am ready for a battle at any time." McAuliffe's memory is very dull in refer ence to Myer. If he had said that Meyer could not make any satisfactory arrange ments with him he would have come nearer the truth, as he knows that the Streator "Cyclone" had a forfeit up in Boston, Xew York, and in this city for months to fight him or any other lightweight in America. After "the Fitzsimmous-Dcmpsey fight MeAuliffe and Myer were matched to fiht in Xew Orleans", and a 51,000 forfeit had been posted as a guarantee to meet in the ring. MeAuliffe flunked ont of that fight, and forfeited the $1,000, which Alf Ken nedy, Mycr's backer, never received. Me Auliffe is a clever fighter, and won his title by defeating Jimmy Carroll, a trick he failed to accomplish against Myer at Xorth Judson, Ind. Iialsingcrand Beatty. A gentleman interested in foot racing called at this office yesterday and said: "There is talk of a 200-yard race between Balsinger, of TJniontown, and Beatty, of Shire Oaks. If the latter would .concede Balsinger a little start, they would make a good race. I would suggest that they try and arrange a race of the kind." General Sporting Notes.

DISPATCH, THURSDAY,- MADE YALE HUSTLE. The Amherst Football Team Put Up Quite a Strong Game. ' TWO GOOD PLAYERS KNOCKED OCT. The Contest Causes the Friends of the Win ners to Think A boat the Future, GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OP THE DAT Xew Haven-, Xov. 11. Yale played her last match game of football on the Yale field this afternoon with Amherst, The battle was won by Yale, but the final score showed only 27 points. The weather was very bad for football and Yale started in with a team crippled by the absence of McClung, Heffelfinger and Hinckey. The latter was hurt in practice yesterday and McClung and Heffelfinger were in Spring field watching the Harvard-Trinity game. Hillman played at center during the first half? but found Lewis, his opponent, so much of a man that he gave Paine a chance to try his skill in the second half. Amherst's wedge was brokea at the start off and Yale got the ball on four downs, sending Bliss through the line for 30 yards and a touchdown. Jackson was following Bliss closely and tackled him behind the line, both men fell together, but Bliss did not get up. He was taken from the field stunned and Dyer substituted. Morrison failed to kick a goal and McCormick fell a victim to Jackson's tackling a moment later. He, too, was carried off the field and Itichards put in his. place. After this the game was played in the center of the field for 20 minutes, neither side making much headway, although Am liprst bucked Y'ale's center strongly and oftentimes successfully. The half "closed with touchdowns by CD. Bliss and "Wallis and a goal from the field by Bi"'iards. The second half was a repitition of the first, with perhaps the exception of Jack son's run to Yale's ten-yard line, which he followed by a kick through Yale's center, carrying the ball within two feet of Yale's line. Then Yale held the ball and got it on four downs. It was a haTd-earned victory for Yale and one which her sup porters are doing some thinking over. WHY THEY DISBANDED. Secretary Hnghes, or Manhattan, Talks About the Iate Football Team. Xew YrOKK, Xov. 1L Special Kegard ing the disbandment of the football eleven of the Manhattan Athletic Club, Secretary Hughes said last night: "We do not wish to go on record as withdrawing from the American Football "Union and disbanding our team because we thought the unjust 100-mile rule would affect the strength of the team. It would certainly take three good men, AmesDonnelly and Lilly, but we had excellent players to take their places, and, us a whole, I do not believe the playing strength of the team would have been greatly weakened. Tlie talk about Cash being from Chicago is absurd. Cash is a born Xew Yorker. "Xo," said Mr. Hughes, "the reason we withdrew from the union was owing to the circumstance of the Xew Yorks getting "Woodruff from Philadelphia, just 00 miles avjayj and then having a 100-mile prohib itive rule passed. That's what caught us. Vv'hy not nave made it 25, 50 or 75 miles? But just far enough to clear Philadelphia! "Well, it's all over, and there's no use talk ing about it. But it was certainly a funnv rule." Ames and Lilly started yesterday for Chicago. IT WILL BE INTEBESTINO. Great Contest Expected Between Yale and the University of Pennsylvania. Xew Yokk, Xov. 11. Special The inter-collegiate football championship game, Yale vs University of Pennsylvania, at Manhattan Field, 2 p. si., next Saturday, will be a very exciting one. There will be considerable interest taken in the result, as the University of Pennsylvania's eleven met Princeton last Saturday and their meet ing with Yale's eleven next Saturday will permit of a line being drawn as to the relative merits of the Yale and Princeton elevens. The teams will probably line up as follows: Vale. Poiitioiut. Pennsylvania. Hinckey Lett Knd Hcisman Winter Lert Tackle Mackey Sanford Left Guard Thornton Stillman Center Adams Jlorrison Kiclit Gunrd Fowler Wallis Right Tackle Sypher Cochran Ittjrht End MacFadden Barbour Quarter-Back Chnrch C. Bliss Left Half-Back Camp I Bliss Kight Hair-Baek Martin McCormick Full-Back Thayer FLAYED A STEONG GAME. Lehigh D sfeats Lafayette In a Very Close and Exciting Contest. Easton, Xov. 11. Sjyec'ial. Lafayette and Lehigh put up a strong game- of foot ball to-day. Lehigh won, more because of an error of judgment by Lafayette than by superior playing. It was at the close of the first half. Lafayette had the ball and had not gained on twp downs. Lehigh had been shoving the ball and it was within twenty yards of Lafayette's territory. Lafayette should have punted the ball up the field but, instead, tried to rush it. Lehigh downed her.got the ball, made twelve yards, and then Blunt made a tbuch down, from which McClung kicked a goal. That was the only scoring Lehigh did and it was just half a minute before time was called. Had tlie ball been punted Lehigh would not have scored. THEY MAY WITHDBAW, An Important Meeting of the Local Associa tion Football Club Called. It may be that the Pittsburg club will withdraw from the "Western Pennsylvania Football League on account of the action of the majority at Tuesday night's meeting. Secretary Pickard, of the club, has called a meeting for Monday evening to be held at George Tann's Hotel, Tenth street. At the meeting a vote will be taken regarding whether or not it will be advisable for the club to remain in the League. Every member of the club is requested to be present. The general opinion is the Tuesday night's majority violated all rules of fair play and were not in any way guided by common sense and intelligence. WILL HAVE PBIVATE FBACTICE. I'ale's Football Team to Bo Kept From the Pnbllc. Xew Haven, Nov. 11. Special All newspaper correspondents and visitors at the Y'ale field were informed this afternoon that for tlie balance of the season the grounds would be closed to everybody ex cept men engaged in football practice. This is the first time that students have been barred from the use of the field. Sig nals will be tried and some of Stagg's tricks practiced. Billv Khoades arrived in town to-day, and will, with the assistance of Corbin and othets, direct Yale's practice until after the Princeton game. Williams Will Play Them. "Williamstown, Xov. 11. The students of Williams College have held a meeting and raised 300 for the support of the foot ball team. Manager White recently re ceived a letter from the manager of the Berkeley Athletic Club grounds, Xew York, requesting that Williams arrange for a game NOVEMBER 12, 1891 there on the morning of Thanksgiving Day with the University of Pennsylvania, pro vided that Williams wins the Eastern championship. The game will probably be played if AVilliams secure the champion ship. CHEERFUL AT HARVARD. Confidence Has Been Bestored In the Foot Ball Team, and There Are Now Great Hopes of Victory Because Corhett, Waters and Mackle Will Flay. Cambridge, Xov. 11. Special There was no sign to-day of the " cloud of gloom which has been settling over Harvard's campus of late. Confidence has been res tored, and now Harvard's football team has settled down to solid work, backed by an enthusiastic constituency. The general feeling seems to be. that tho playing of Co-- bett, Waters and Mackie will raise seeming defeat to victory at Springfield on Xovem ber 21. They were needed badly. Capt. Trafford had been holding off in the hope of securing them as members of the team, and that is why the team had not been selected. Xow there will be a revival of interest in Harvard's team, and there will be seen no more of the careless playing which has characterized the work of the eleven in the games thus far played. The make-up of the 'Varsity eleven will be materially changed from this time. Mackie, who has been playing on the second eleven regularly, has completely outplayed the other candidates for that position, and is undoubtedly the only man in college who can stand up aeainst tlie mighty Heffelfinger. He weighs about 195 pounds and is a very hard man to block, as he playsa strons, aggressive game. He will play regularly on the team at right guard after this. The football men are elated at the possibility of his playing, as ne will strengthen the center materially. t The make-up of the two other center posi tions is the most puzzling question at pres ent. Dexter at guard seems to be a disap pointment Vail and Highlands, the other candidates for the left guard, are very evenlv matched, with the chances slightly favoring Vail. His advantage over High lands lies in his watching the play more closely and devoting more energy to tack ling than to worrying his opponent. Bangs, who is playing center at present regularly, is not verv satisfactpry. Shea is improving very rapidly, and in the practice yesterday afternoon, wben he played center on the second eleven, simply played with Bangs. He broke through him at almost every scrimmage, and once went through so cleanly that he stopped Trafford's punt, a very unusual feat for a center rusher. Al though the center is so completely unsettled, and probably will be up to within a short time of tlie Yale game, it would not be sur prising to see it made up of Vail, Shea and Mackie. This would make a very heavy center, Vail weighing about 185 pounds, Shea 215 and Mackie about 195. Corbett's work at half-back last year is too well known to need comment. He is probably feared more by opposing rushers than anv half-back in the country, and with Lake will make the team wondertullystrong back of the line. Waters will undoubtedly play left tackle. He is as strong a man for his weight as any on the field and plays a hard game throughout. His great weak ness is in being easily blocked off. But if he can overcome that he will be invaluable to the team, "as he is a splendid tackier. His strongest point is ground gaining. He goes through the ruih line in much the same manner at Lake. It is highly probable that the 'varsity eleven that will face Yale will be made up as follows, center being the doubtful posi tion: Left end, Emmons; left tackle, Waters: left , guard, Vail; center, Dexter; right guard, Mackie; right tackle, Xewell; right end, Hallowell; quarter back, Gage; half backs, Lake and Corbett; full back, Traf ford. Lake will not play for a few days. He has been trained down too fine and will be laid oil. Trafford will also do a little more punting than usual in order to give the team more training under the kicking eanie. Unless things greatly change be will in the Yale same, puntwery frequently. McCor mick, the Yale back, is certainly no match for him at that point. Trafford's individual rushing has fallen off very much of late in its effectiveness. To be sure, the rushers make no holes for him near the center, but that weakness does not acconnt for the visi ble slowing up which he shows in entering the line. Selected Their Jafhres. Boston, Xov. 11. Special Capt. Trafford, of the Harvard elevenand Cap tain McClung, of Yale, have just decided upon the men who shall judge the playing in the great game on Xovember 21. Alexander Moffatt, formerly of Princeton, will be referee, and S. V. Coffin, formerly of Wcsleyan, will be umpire. Moffatt is an old Princeton player of much repute. Coffin was umpire in the Yale-Princeton game last Thanksgiving. Dickinson Wants a Trainer. Carlisle, Xov. 11.
