as follows:

To THE MEMBERS OF THE N. B. B. A.-You

]. A. WILLIAMS.
Since the issue OF this notice Clinton has
been released and Mufnan taken by the
Albany Club. Critchley, too, has been re-
leased by the Albanys,
The Albany Express gives the following
account of a curious incident in The Alba
ny-National game on May 3D.: There was
one man ont Farrell was at first and Nor
rissey at third. Pike at the bat tpeppered
hard one to left field. Dignan and Warner
both went for it Everybody saw it drop
to the ground, but in a twinkling ball
was thrown in, and Warner claims to have
caught it. The umpire thereupon declared
Pike out, and Morrissey also for leaving his
base, amid much confusion. Where did
the ball go to? Were there two balls?
What has become of the ball seen on the
ground? everybody asked, but nobody an
sSered. 1t was very curious" Another
account says that Dignan and Mcclellan
ran for the ball, which was seen to strike
the latter's hands and fall to the ground
and that without either of the fielders
STOPPING the ball was fielded in and the
striker declared out.
Manager R. Z. J. Miles, of the Grand
Opera House. is one trick ahead Of Haver1y.
The following from the ST. Louis Globe
Democrat explains itself: admirers of
the National game hereabonts will be en-
a5led to witness grand game of bah with
foreign club for the first time in nearly
two years at the CoMpton Avenue Base
ball Park next Sunday afternoon. Captain
Cuthbert, of the Brown Stockings, yester-
day received telegram from Mr. r. e. J.
Miles of Cincinnati, to the effect that the
Blue Stockings of that city would meet the
Browns on the day designated. The Blues
have a standing in the Queen City similar
to that enjoyed by the Browns here. They
play irst-class game in every respect, and
the contest is sure to be close and exciting
Should the patronage at this game warrant
it the Browns will spare no expense in Sc
curing the attendance of strong visiting
clubs throughout the entire season."
ANOTHER PLAYER SUSPENDED. Mon
days game at Baltimore the Herald says:
The game of ball yesterday afternoon at
Neaington Park between the Baltimores
and AIbanys resulted in favor OF the lat
ter BY score of II to f6. The game was
remarkable for the heavy hitting and
large number of errors made. When The
Baltimores had finished their nine in
nngs at the bat they were five runs ahead
of their opponents, but allowed the visitors
to score six runs and win the game before
play was called. Several very bad and in
excnsable errors were made the most dis.
astrous being those made by Daily
1t was rumored through the
large crowd present that there was
something crooked going on. and con-
rected with the rumOr was Dahl Is name.
In fact, it was stated by several parties that
he had sold the game, and that BY his doing
so several hundred dollars were won by O
personal friend of his. While some allege
this to be the cause OF his bad playing 9TH
ers say that he was intoxicated. At any
rate. something was certainly wrong and it
should be investigated. Being so much
smoke, there undoubtedly is some fire.
Since writing the above it was learned that
meeting of the directors was held last eye-
ming, and that Daily had been suspended
for thirty days, pending the investigate
of certain charges which have been made
against him. The exact charges have not
been made known, but what they are can
be readily surmised from tire above article"
