1.-THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE of last Sunday con-
tanned four columns and half Of baseball mat
ter. Isn't that croWding the death columnt ~
Cincinnati Enquirer. If the Chicago people had
dead club, perhaps there wouldn't be SO much
need of baseball news, and they could afford to
get along as the people Of Cincinnati have to-
A dispatch from Louisville to THE TRIBUNE
yesterday states that the ninth game OF the
series between the Chicagos and Louisvi1les,
which was attempted Thursday, will be played
tomorrow. There is little doubt that the League
Board u would have sustained the umpire in
his decision giving the game to Chicago, hut the
Whites we're willing to give their opponents q
show to win, and agreed to call the Thursdays
contest " no game"
The lawyers and brokers have selected mines

A most extraordinary and disgraceful mani
festation Of spite is shown BY the Louisville
Thursdays game to other papers 10 the
G1obe- Dcmoerat they communicated the fact that
1.-The Chicagos attempted some dirty work here
to-day, IAN assertion entirely unfou1ded by
even the most biased reports Of the facts; Chi
cago people justly take great pride in the con
duct Of Manager Spalding's team, and don't
like to have them unjustly accused Of conduct
other than gentlemanly.
The New York Sportsman, one OF the higher
grade of sporting papers, has the following par
agraph: 1.-THE Chicagos are now considered to
have the championship within their grasp, and
many people will be glad Of it. spalding' IS
fine management, and the able co operation OF
| such men as Barnes, White, and McVey, Ger
tainly deserve the reward In reserve for all hon
est and capable mines, and it is gratifying to the
| friends of Mr.. Hubert, the President OF the
| Chicago Club, that bis endeaVors and intcfati-
gability will be recognized and appreciated"
The New Haven Palladium says: Z" It is in
! the power OF the Managers and Directors OF the
New Haven Baseball Company to get together
good nine for next season. The present nine
has made good record this season, and If as
good nine IS provided next year, admission to
the League will be easy. To insure successful
action, il is necessary that those interested in
baseball in this city should come forward and
show their interest by buying the Company's
stock. We hope that the Manager and Direct
ors will be encouraged at once by such action on
the part OF many"
Cincinnati newspapers are amusing them
selves with abuse OF their Club, the last one to
indulge in it being the Commercial, from which
are taken the following extracts: "1f death
the home nine would now be ornamenting Pot
ter's Field. It would be proclamation
of the pages OF daily newspaper published in
Cincinnati to describe the game in detail: We
therefore append the simple score, with the
hone that st. Louis and other rival cities will
treat our nine Tor our no'se} with as much len
icncy as they can possibly scrape together"
