his scheduled fight between Fred Fm“!

in the stag..:g of this fight, Mulvihlll
has encountered all kinds of obstacles,
the final and greatest one being the
refusal of Daubury people 1:) allow him
the use of the Danbury Fair grounds.
But with his famous bulldog tenacity
he still hung on and immediately got
in touch with the owners of the ball
grounds and secured a lease of the?
place. This togther with the signa-
ture of both Fulton and Dempsey 8.8-

Will Request Hearing Before
Railroad Commission -—I
Order of General Crowder.
Discussed—lelle Covering.
Players in Service on Fur-é
lough ‘

NEW YORK, June (Sr—A decision to'
co-operate with all other organized
baseball interests, in a request for a
hearing before the railroad commla.
sion in regard to theproposed increase .
in mileage rates, was the outstanding:
feature of the special meeting of the‘
National League magnates held here“
yesterday. it was decided to take up
the matter with the commission, in
view of the traveling commitments
made months ago when the season’s
schedule was adopted.

The advance in mileage and Pullman
rates will add considerably to the al-
ready heavy expense under which the
clubs are operating, and the magmnes
are hopeful that a special ruling can
be made. in view of the fact that all
arrangements for the various circuit
trips were made at the very beginningr

Tile question of the effect of Gen}
eral Crowdcr's order relative to all
men of draft age doing essential war
work. or serving with tile army or.
navy. also came up for discussion. It
was decided to await a formal interpre
tation of the order and a concrete case
involving a National League player.

A ruling was adopted to cover the
case of a player who. after joining the‘
army or navy. secures a furlough and
returns to his club for the purpose of
playing one or more games. It was do
cided that no such player should he eli-
giblc to play unless lie carried the
written permission of his commanding
officer. and unless his club was under
the twenty-three player limit. After
