The League clubs are feeling sadly their
hlsty action In taking up and standing Ivy players
who have been expelled by American Association
clubs for failure to carry ont contracts Every ora
ganlsatuu composing the League clubs have united IN
petition TO the Athletics, Of Philadelphia, for there
instatement OF Troy, player who signed to play
with the Athletics, but deserted them to accept an
Offer from the Derots, the latter club agreeing 10
lease him II such action Is taken. II Is said the
Athletics will refuse positively to listen to such
proposition. In this they are right as the motive
thatpromps the League In this move Is simply OF
gain for themselves They extremely Jealous OF the
American teams, and, nowthat they are meeting with
such financial success and have taken bold grounds
against them, they ind that they must make terms or
lose The patronage Of such cities as New York,
Philadelphia, and Cincinnati. II the Athletics or
the Association finally make mp their minds TO listen
to such proposition, let them mako bold aght and
only acguiesce when tho League agrees that such
men rs Baker, Gerhardt, and Jones are placed upon
the same footing "a Troy, whose deception was ut
tcrly degrading when compared to others The

York. and the phadephias, for while the Eastern
clubs are In the West they cannot have any games

of Troy with tho Dotroits. Both of these clubs are
what is known as League Alliance teams, and no
semi-profess'onai team VIII play them while under
the present ban, rs a wish 10 remain IN the good
graces of the National Association. The question is
important one and 1t Is hoped that the Americans

Bureau willow wielders became sadly demoralzed at
the way the heavy hitters of the Interior made them
why the Interior nine does not play better hall against
tho bIg clubs they surely have the material for the

The game of the Printing Bureau against
the Interior nine on Monday last was perhaps the
last one that the team viii play under the manage

very miserable death. This is to he regretted as

all clubs would play their quota and tho season

two more win ere long go by the boards.

The record for the League for the past
week shows some important changes from their status
last Sunday The Bustons have advanced Into third
place. while the Chicago team 10y Ave successive VIC
tories, have gone into fourth place. Tho play OF the
ex champions during the week was splendid and re-
minded their friends of the vigor shown by this team
during the years OF 1880 and 1881. II seems now
more than likely that the fight for first place vii
eventually narrow down TO Providence and Chicago.
The Troys have dropped from third place to nth,
Budalos being sixth, Ceyelands seventh, and Wor-
cesters bad eighth This table does not include Sat
