10 You Can Ask the Man Next Door if This Isn't True By "Bud" Fisher (§> I9t+ ay tVATj. G>. JENNINGS MAY PACE SERIOUS CHARGES Managers Claim Detroit Leader Violated Confidence Rule; Will Come Up Today Philadelphia. Nov. 6.—According to the general belief in railroad circles here, Manager Hughey Jennings, of the Detroit Americans, is in bad. Silence is golden sometimes, even in organized baseball. At least Jennings, the speckled lighting manager of the Detroit Tigers, may learn as much during the annual meeting of the American League scheduled for to-day and to-morrow. Before the magnates finish their session Hughie may be court-martialed and ordered shot at eunrise for betraying the secrets of waiver system, or he may be given a plain reprimand and a stiff fine as his penalty for telling the world at large that Connie Mack had entered upon negotiations with the view of fitting tinware to his three curving wizards. Chief Bender, Jack Coombs and Eddie Plank. Disposition of Jennings' case is one of the problems to confront the mo guls and may come up to-day, accord ing to President Ban Johnson, viola tion of the rule, which requires abso lute secrecy in the asking of waivers in the American League is an offense punishable by the imposition of a fine, and in addition the league executive has the right to discontinue the service of further bulletins dwelling on waiv ors to the individual who committed the breach of confidence.

"Several matters of vital interest to the American League will come before our meeting." declared President Johnson to-night. "Jennings' case merits severe action. After disposing of this proposition we probably will take up other details which will have a direct bearing on the conduct of the 1915 race."
