Gary brings up a good point that likely needs clarification.
The Veteran's Committee vote that year was intended to select 5 more candidates for induction but none of the players received the requisite amount.
(Only the Baseball Writers group candidates made up the eventual First Class)
This separate category was primarily intended for 19th century players although a few players (Cy Young & Honus Wagner for example) received votes in both categories.
The leading vote getter was Cap Anson, but he wasn't even close to the minimum vote total.
As Gary mentions, several players did receive votes in that special nomination category who have yet to make it in the Hall, and likely never will
Herman Long was the top non-HoF vote getter that year.
An interesting sub-set collection might be in the makes for me, featuring any player who garnered more than say, a dozen HoF votes in his career but never made it..
