National League Opens Annual Meeting in New York
The National League clubs opened their annual meeting at the Victoria Hotel in New York with focus on electing a president. Rumors named Harry C. Pulliam and James T. Hart as potential candidates as Ritchey Flaherty and another Pittsburg player moved to Boston for Abbaticchio. Barney Dreyfuss announced Tred Clarke would return as Pittsburg manager. President Pulliam praised the year’s finances as the best yet, and a unanimous resolution commended his disciplinary work in 1906. A dinner was planned at the Waldorf-Astoria for retiring Boston officials A. H. Soden and W. W. Conant, with meetings to continue tomorrow.
