WRANGLE OF MAGNATES.
National Base Ball League Tangled la a
Bitter QuarrelLouisville Repre
sentatives Demaod Recognition.
Chicago, Nov. II. The National
league at 2 o'clock had become split
inf two factions over the arbitration
board matter and they held meetings
far apart in the hotel, and behind lock
ed doors. The one under the leader
ship of Dr. Stuckey. of Louisville,
went to a room on the top Hour and
the big live remained in the regular
meeting place on the parlor lloor. At
that time the situation was chaotic,
with Louisville holding the coveted bal
ance of power and Stuckey making
all kinds of demands for crack players
in return for his vote against the
major combine. The fixed demand of
Louisville was for Hallman of Philadel
phia, Catcher Clements and Right
Fielder Sam Thomson In exchange for
"Chick" Frazer and McCreary. The
deal for this trade was started yester
day but the arbitration board wrangle
complicated matters.
At 4 o'clock the factions came togeth
er, nnd the report which obtained most
credence was that Stuckey had been
won over to support his old colleagues
by liberal transfer of players. Dr.
Stuckey said before the meeting of
each fuetion at 2 o'clock: "I want
something, the Louisville club wants
something and fortunately the despised
Louisville club Is in a position to dic
tate. I want concessions from both
sides no matter how I act. If I remain
with the smaller faction the tie vote
will not be changed and Iiuisville will
be in line for representation on the na
tional board of arbitration. For years
we have been mulcted and I llrmly be
lieve we have been squeezed with the
intention of getting rid of us. We will
demand the strengthening of our team.
I am for Mr. Byrne, of Brooklyn, for
the board of arbitration. He has stood
by Louisville when we so badly needed
help and I never go back on a man
who stands by me. I don't care any
thing about the Brush feature of the
case. Personally I think no man con
nected with a minor league or interest
ed in a minor league franchise should
be a member of the national board."
Tho report was circulated through
the animated base ball lobby In the
hotel rotunda that Andrew Freedman,
of New York, had offered certain mem
bers of his New York team as a peace
offering to Pr. Stuckey for the vot? of
Louisville. Bill Clutke, Connnughton
and Stafford were players mentioned.
