QUAKER CITY SCHEME.
Special Correspondence o| The Tribune.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Aug. A.-It is getting
clearer every day that the Ath1eti. Club IS wad-
ding along on it's last legs, and will not staggger
much longer either. The only interest that at
taches to this in the West is that Of
the future. In writing some weeks ago,
1 suggested that the baseball people
here intended to throw over the name and Or
ganization OF the Athletic Club and take some
other. They would do this without shake Of
the head were it not TINT they want to keep
the men with whom they have contracted for
next year, and on whom they would have no
this strait an attempt WILL am told, be made
to assign the contracts to the new Association,
nnd thus force the men to play here whether or
10. 1t is claimed that these contracts
are valuable documents, and that If
the old concern goes into bankruptcy
it should have the right to
dispose OF those papers as OF any other assets:
don't know the law OF the case, and don't
care what it is; but anyway the Spering crowd
lately appointed as Committee on the Affairs
of the C1ubsare going to try it. n. B. G..
