Tbe ootpire nueu* tloQ wui probablv receive ibe gieater attenUon. and it may reeolt In tbe eitablUbment of tbe doable nmpln aratem. On tbat subject Tre^deut Young aald: "Tbere la onlf one way to put an end to kloUDg agalnit nmplrea, and tbat li for tbe om- clataot tbe various major league cluba loanataln tbe men wbo are paid to preside over tbe gamea, laaob dob payi lis ibare to support tbe aUiT of unplrea, and mucb of tbe uueenuj wisngllng ikat ovcuneil during tbe paat season migbt bave been avoided If tbe omcere o( tbe severaT clnba had been more frlendlf disposed toward the nmplrea, and dla* couiagod disorderly conduct on the parinr certain plajera." Preeldent Young mlgbt have added ibai It isqulte likely that a Domoer of lisporuni deals In regard to the tnnsfer of phiyen la likely to play a promlneDipartatthe meeting. All tbeclnbs may not think so, and the scheme may not be favombly regarded by (he press in aume of tbe dtJes In tbo malor league circuit, but It would be a m<M ex- cellent plan for the olllclals to have a geoermi abake up among tbelr veteran or aUr players. A tmnafer here sod (hero would result In Onanolal gain all around. Some playeregnwcareless and IndlObrent afier belonging to a club for sons yeare, and a obange would do them good, as tbey would /«el tbat tbey must exert themselves to their utmost to be- come popuUr In their new bone. Tbere appean to i>e a divided opinion among the major leune magnates on tbo umpire subject. President Freedman, of the New York Club, ex- nreasea blmselt onthatmatier as follows: "lama firm believer In the double umpire system as the only way out ot the dimcully. I also bellore tbat tbe present etaif should be tboroogbly reorganized. Poaalbly Mr. Young has too much on bis bands al- ready (o tie botbered with tbe umpires another Jear, twc I wUl not say whether the mauer should e placed In the baods of a committee or iioL'* Jamea A. Hart, president of the Cblcago Club, ukes an eatlrelr dlderent view of the i-ase. lie aays: "Save US from the double nmplre system 1 Wbyr Well, tbe major lesgoe basa*i yet succeeded In se- curlngslxcapablemeo.andbow is Itgolutogei double that namt>ert We are a long wayfrom re* qulrlog two men to Judge ibe play wnen, u we can seonre one good man, he can give absolute satUfao Uon atall.tiinea.

Uoe neat trouble with tke nmplrea la thatthey do not Inflict Ones from the elart, but genemlly wait nntll tbey lose their lemner. Tbere la only one way for any umplra lo retain tbe respect of the playeni which la the most Impoitant attribute to hli aucceaB,aud tbat la to Munirees any kick right at tbe start. All (lie boot- ing and blaslDg of a decision emanates from tbe onwd« because a wild rusb of itoyera la made for tbe umpire dlrocUy It Is rendered. If sn umpire Is respected by Uie opposing teams all prolonged kick- ing Isdone away with, because tbe captahis know tbu If they or their men become belligerent they will be heavily lined, and will receive no ben- edt so far aa dedalons are conceraed. I cer- tainly think the dolDg powere of an nmplre are, If handled dUicreetly, a iremendoua fac- tor In givlog US clean, leglUmate baseball, de- void of all the dlsguatlog elements of continual kicklog and oblecUng. Tne size of a fine outs no figure at all, and I would not advocate a reduction In the minimum amount. If nmpltes start outprop- orlr ihey need bave no fear ibal tbelr flolsg powere wlU bave to be brought Into play very often. The tnable Is tbat tbey do not start out tight. Tbere Is no necessity for further legislation in the subject br the major league. One reading of the rules will coovlnce any one that tbe league lawmakers have gone Into tbe matter folly, and that the nies, If ad- hered to stilcUy, are quite sortlclent to meet all exigencies. Tbe trenble with tbe umpires la tbat tbey do not ol>serve the roles laid down for tbelr guidance." It would be InteresUog to bear wbat some of the other malor league men nave to aay on tbesnbleot.
