[reporting on the joint conference committee meeting of 10/16 – 10/17] Caylor proposed to the meeting that a grade be made, and that pitchers and catchers be paid $1800, out-fielders $1700 and in-fielders $1600. The delegates from Louisville and Baltimore favored this mode of fixing salaries, while the Athletic delegates favored the plan of letting the players get as much as they could. The League men, however, favored a limit of $2000, and they will make an effort to have their point carried.
