In Omaha the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues cut the Southern League salary limit to 3200 a month and the player cap to fifteen. President W M Kavanaugh says this will improve finances and quality, curb Federal League threats, and allow clubs to invest in parks and patron comforts.
