Chicago; Mas Klelsihmann anl August Herrmsnn, Cincinnati. F. Dellaas Roblson of St. Louis was not at the meeting. Th- new develop ments In the American lerifue situation were taken up at once. At the conclusion of the session, which lasted until a late hour of the afternoon John T. Brush said: "We spent the entire session In a gen eral discussion of the situation and not a single action was taken that would Interest the public. As a matter of fact, our hands are tied In certain respects and we can do nothing In the line of what the public ex pects.' Mr. Brush admitted that the magnates had discussed the situation regarding New York, but also admitted that his followers were completely bathed o far as taking any action was concerned. According to James A. Hart of Chicago there is absolutely no chance of peace be tween the two big leagues next summer. "Pence:'" repented Air. Hirt, In answer to a question. "There is no chance of It. There certainly have been no advances made by the otbei side and none by us. The American league, to my mind, does not want peace Just at present. It will never be satisfied until It has placed teams In both New York and Pittsburg. Then it thinks It will be able to talk terms to the major league." Mr. Hart declared that the situation as to players had been gone over carefully and that the public would be surprised when it learned how few players would Jump their contracts this year on either side. Manager McOraw arrived In the city from his wertern trip. He declared he had en gaged two American league stars for his team next year. He refused to give the players' names. James C. Kennedy ' Is quoted as saying that he will be manager of an American league team In this city next vear. adding that the American league had options on two pieces of ground In this city.

Mr. Collins refers to the difference In the game as played In the I'nlted States and In Kngland and suggests that the I'nlted Stales and Kngland adopt a uni form pattern of nets, center cords and post supporters. He considers the American courts to "be above the average tourna ment courts In the I'nlted Kingdom" and acknowledges the egcellence of American balls, but says they are deader than the Kngllah balls and thinks the elasticity of balls should be standardised as well as their slxe and weight. Mr. Collins also crit icises Ihe laxity of American officials tn penalising "font faults" and recommenda that future tournaments should Include one day's rest, "so that this country might play the same men in singles and doubles."
