Columbus, Base Ball Sale.

From tie Columbus Ga.l Enquirer sun.
Tuesday morning a report gained cirou-
laton on the street that the franchise of
the Columbus Base Ball Club had been
sold to Memphis. A reporter heard the
report, and called upon Mr.. James e.
DeatOn to know if it W as true.
Yes" said Mr.. Deaton, 1--WE have sold
the franchise to Memphis for $1,000. The
franchise was owned by Mr.. &. Nj. Viii
liams, Mr.. 7. h. Blanchard, Mr. w. w.
Bussey and myself, as We paid the 800
that had to be paid to retain 1t. Mr.. Bus
sey was opposed to selling, but we
thought it the best thing we could do
under the circumstances. 1t would
take at least $4,000 to run good
club through the season aud we had been
able to get only $1,000 subscribed. The
receipts at the games would scarcely
more than pay the guarantee TO visiting
clubs, and nothing could be hoped for
from that source. The outlook was SO
gloomy that we thought ii useless to try
to 90 through the season. Those who
have paid anything on their subscription
for this year will be refunded their
money. OF course it remains 10 be seen
yet whether the league will approve Of
the transfer Of the franchise, bat ! think
there will be no trouble about that"
The sale OF the franchise was generally
discussed by the lovers OF base ball yes
terday, and they were almost unanimous
in regretting that it had been made.
Some even questioned the right OF the
gentlemen to sell the franchise without
the consent of the stockholders. One of
the stockholders said:
"Of course, no one viii make any fuss
about the sale, but don't think it ought
to have been made without first being laid
before a meeting Of the stockholders. 1t
ygg Understood that the gentlemen had
advanced 500 to pay the clubs dues to
the league, and ! don't think this gave
them the right TO say that the franchise
belonged to them ind yidually TO be dis
posed OF as they saw 1T. The Columbus
Base Ball and Driving Association is
chartered concern with quite numbe OF
stockholders, and | believe, technically
speaking, that they should have been con-
suited about this thing"
1t must not be understood that the gen.
tlemen who sold the franchise did it as a
matter Of private speculation, for they
will not make dollar IN the transaction,
except that they Will get back some OF the
money which they have paid out. Column
bus owed Memphis something, and really
gets only $500 in the transac ton. When
the gentlemen take from this the 500
they paid to retain the franchise and the
first assessment OF p per cent. on this
years subscriptions is refunded, nothing
will be left. The Columbus Base Ball
Association hasn't been mOney-maklng
enterprise, hit, nevertheless, it mas been
the means of much pleasure, and the peo-
pie dislike very much to see the city with
out professional club this season. Anna
teur base ballists will now come to the
front and I'll the public demand for some
