Meanwhile Player's Application for Reinstatement Will Be Discussed by National Commission. Angered because of the action of the New York National League Baseball Club in regard to the Bennie Kauff incident, the Federal League owners are to meet in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel tomorrow morning and decide on action.

President Gilmore, from Chicago, has wired all of the owners to gather in New York tomorrow. It was announced from the Federal League headquarters that if the Nationals do not show the same spirit as was shown by Robert B. Ward in the Rube Marquard incident, there will be declared a war by Federals. The meeting tomorrow will await word from the National League as to its decision in the matter. In the meantime, President John K.

Tener of the National League has answered the protesting telegram from Robert B. Ward in a return message today to the following effect: "Answering your wire of yesterday, relative to the Kauff incident, you are advised that the player in question will not be permitted to play in the National League at this time." President R. B. Ward of the Brookfeds said that he felt confident that when President Hempstead of the New York Nationals was made conversant with the conditions and contract binding Kauff to the Brooklyn Federals, the Giants' executive would not attempt to hold Kauff to any contract he might have signed with the Nationals. He stated that the case was similar in many respects to those of Rube Marquard, Bill James and Milton Reed, all of whom were turned back by the Brooklyn Feds.

Regarding the playing status of Kauff, Secretary John B. Foster of the Giants said: "If it is proved that the Brooklyn Federals have a prior or binding contract with Kauff, then we will withdraw all claim to his services." According to Secretary Heydler, the first step toward fixing Kauff's status in organized baseball was made yesterday when the player personally wired to the headquarters of the National Commission requesting that he be restored to good standing by that body. The formal and written application for Kauff's reinstatement is being prepared at League quarters today and will be mailed to the National Commission probably tonight. National Commission Will Give Out Official Statement Tomorrow. Cincinnati, Ohio, April 30-Benny Kauff's official standing, in so far as organized baseball is concerned, will not be passed upon today, according to the statement of August Herrmann, Chairman of the National Baseball Commission.

"I have received an application for Kauff's reinstatement and have taken the matter up with President Tener of the National League and President Johnson of American League. No decision on the case is possible today, but it is probable that the commission will give out an announcement tomorrow. In the meantime I would rather not discuss the merits of the case."

Spectacular -Stupendous Startling Dr. Felter as Washington In Pageant of Brooklyn Girls High School Principal Is Chosen to Impersonate the Immortal George -Has Done So Before Miss Tanner, the Pageant Director, Arrives and Begins Active Work. Dr.

William L. Felter, principal of Girls High School, has accepted the invitation of Citizens Committee to assume the role of George Washington in the Brooklyn Historical Pageant, to be held at the Twentythird Regiment Armory, May 21 and 22. It is no new thing for Dr. Felter to be George Washington, for he had the part in the Hudson-Fulton celebration. He has no mustache or beard to sacrifice.

Dr. Felter's name as a candidate for the position was suggested by Miss A Alice L. Carson of 1481 Dean street, who is a graduate of Girls High School. She will receive two seats to the pageant as a prize for her winning selection. Another bit of interesting information that was given out at the headquarters of the Pageant committee today was the fact that the Pageant director, Miss Virginia Tanner, arrived here yesterday from Boston.

Soon after Miss Tanner's arrival she was busy on her new duties. She consulted Colonel Norton of the Twenty-third Regiment regarding the 300 men he has promised to supply for the scene representing the Battle of Long Island. This scene promises to be specially thrilling. The soldiers will be garbed in the Continental uniforms, and to give it the right effect no ammunition will be spared. About forty men on horseback will also take part in this episode.

Later in the afternoon Miss Tanner went up to the Chateau du Parc, Park place and Vanderbilt avenue, where she coached a rehearsal of the Calico Ball scene. All rehearsals from now on will be under the direction of Miss Tanner, and she will be in full charge of the pageant until it is over. During APPELLATE DIVISION DECISIONS TODAY Margarite A.

Is Shipping Shells. Washington, April 30-President Wilson today directed Attorney General Gregory to make an investigation SO that the Government may be informed, of the complaint yesterday in Milwaukee to determtne whether the Allis-Chalmers Company has entered a conspiracy with the Bethlehem Steel Company, or others, to ship shrapnel shells to Europe. The action, brought under the "discovery" statute of Wisconsin, is a State affair, but as it contends that certain Federal statutes are being violated, the Attorney General was directed to investigate that phase especially. Officials know of no law to prevent shipments of ammunition as articles of commerce and they, assume it is contended the neutrality laws are being violated in some other way.
