Major Leagues Decide to Hold Joint Conference in Chicago Next Week -» ____ ' Landis-Johnson Controversy to Feature Meet Commissioner Winner in^Firsf Bound of Battle Held at New York. By .%*rint,iat#<| PrpRti. NEW YORK. Deo. It.—Tlie last scene in tlie 19?4 drama centering about baseball's govern ing forces will be enacted at Chi cago next YVed nesdsy, w hen Com -* missloner K e n e saw Mountain I-midis will pre side over a joint major league meet ing which is ex lUiX/A pected to produce a final ''showdown” in his war with Han Johnson, prtsident of tlie Ameri can league. The decision to shift the meeting to Chicago was reached this afternoon by major league club owners who compromised on tlie date for their adjourned session after National league men had sought to arrange the gathering for this Saturday, w hile n majority of American league mag nates held out for a postponement until late in January. The meeting is slated for 11 a. m. at the Congress hotel. National league men, It was under stood, insisted upon an early date tor the meeting with I.andis, because of a desire to press the advantage con ceded to have been gained by the commissioner's supporters in obtain ing endorsement from both leagues at their annual meetings within tlie last few days. American leaguers, . on the other hand, in an effort to strengthen the hand of Johnson, were said to desire further time to solidlfy their rankq. Both sides finally con sented to next week's date after an agreement had been reached by tele phone with Landis at Rochester, Minn., where the commissioner has been kept by the illness of his wife. Credited with a signal victory over Johnson in the outcome of the three days of major league deliberations here, Commissioner Landis was con sidered to be solidly entrenched for the final aot next week, but there were strong indications that club owners, particularly in American league ranks, would seek a compro mise that would settle the feud be tween the two warring officials. The first move in this direction will he made by the special commit tee appointed by tlie Aineriran league yesterday to confer with I-andls In an attempt to bring about “full har mony.” Col. Jacob Kuppert, presi dent of (lie New York Yankees and spokesman for this committee, an nounced that Its members intended to meet l-andis early next Wednesday at Chicago in an effort to pave the way for peace at the joint general session. Johnson, who attended the meeting today, as did President Ileydler of the National league, refused to break the silence lie has maintained since Ills arrival. His friends, however, said he ha daceepted the rebuke of hia own club owners yesterday without out ward show of bitterness. They pre dicted he w'ould make no move to ob struct the attempts to restore tran quility to major league ranks. Landis, on the other hand, was rep l resented as desiHng a complete vlndl I cation of his policies and administra tion. The commissioner has charged that Johnson violated the agreement draw'n up when i,andis took office three years ago, that no criticism of him was to be made publicly by any league official or club owner. Today's meeting was presided over by Leslie O’Connor, secretary to Lan dis. It considered no matters outside the adjournment date, embodied In a resolution of sympathy to the com missioner.
