It's possible that Young was not in the initial class is because there were two separate ballots meant to cover pre- and post-1900 players. The ballots did not have names on them...my understanding is that there were essentially 10 blank lines and you were meant to write in the names yourself.
So it's possible that the people voting in the separate elections assumed Young would be covered by the voters in the other election and left him off (or just weren't sure if he was considered pre- or post-1900). Just conjecture on my part...
