The American Association Meets in Brook
Iyn-Business Transacted.
BROOKLYN, March 6.-The base ball mag
mates who form the American Association,
gathered in force at the Clarendon hotel here
to-day, the occasion being the annual spring
meeting of the Association. The principal
object of the meeting is TO adopt a schedule.
The schedule had been submitted to a COM
mittee consisting Of League and Association
members, but as the League sprung a sur
prise on the Association by adopting a
schedule of 140 games instead of l26, some
alterations will have to be made Aside
from the schedule there are a number of
other matters to be acted upon.
The first business attended to was the re-.
ception of the committees reports The COM
mittee on constitution and bylaws presented
a report which included several important
amendments to the Association constitution
The most difficult question the delegates had
to settle, however proved to be that involved
in the report of the schedule committee
which presented no less than twenty-three
conflicting dates governing games in Phila'
delphia It led to lengthy discussion.
Mr.. A. j. Reach, of the Philadelphia
League club, consulted with the delegates in
regard to the dates and the increase of ad
mission price paid upon his club by the
League, which also bore on the action to b,
taken by the Association in obliging the Ath
letics to charge fifty cents admission. 1t il
not likely that any discussion on the ques
tions, or in regard to the making out of the
American schedule, will be reached before
tomorrow.
Umpires Gaffrey, Doescher, McQuade ant
Ferguson, of the Association, are also hold
ing meeting at the hotel. A banquet will
be given to the delegates this evening 10y
