 Gus Schmeiz, manager of the Cincinnatis, while in this city with his team last Friday, said: ''New Haven is a great base ball city and no mistake," he said very enthusiastical- ly. "The audience here to-day was one of the finest we ever played before. am sur- prised at to.day's attendance, and more agreeably 80 on account of the fairness mani- Tested to visiting team. had thought that the reports of your attendance here were ex aggerated, but find they are not, if to-day's attendance is a criterion. Yes, I think New Haven could support a team in the American association, but hardly think you will be
 admitted next year, as there is not likely to
 be vacancy in the eastern section. If there should be an opening in the eastern division I don't think there is any doubt but that New Haven would be admitted. In order to
 become . member of the association you would have to put up bond of SIG, 900 as a guarantee to last the season through. Colum- Du6 huo hduSub Slby, Luo A0W CAeA06 AOo0AoAy admitted into this league, each put up bond for that amount.n
 The New Ravens did good work during the past week They played two phenomenal games against the Hartfords, and then went to Worcester and played about as poorly as they knew how. It was unjust to attribute the loss of this game to Gilliland's wildness. He pitched splendid game of ball, and it was errors and failure to hit Stafford that lost the game. There has been some funny scoring done in this league. Doran muffed fly ball in the first inning of this game, let ting in two runs, but the scorers gave it a hit. in order to fatten up the averages of the home team. On Friday the New Ravens played @ first-class game against Cincinnati: It showed that Horner and Doran are two good pitchers.
 "The Resolutes will not apply for admis- sion to the Atlantic league," said Manager Tom Reilly after Saturdays game in this city.
 The New Ravens are scheduled for five games this week, and will probably play six games. Newark plays here to-day, Worces- ter Tuesday and Wednesday, and Lowell on Friday and Saturday. The schedule places Lowell here on Thursday, but that game was changed to Friday. Worcester may play | here on Thursday.
 On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Sep | tember 16, 17 and IS, the first of the Hart ! ford-New Haven games will be played. On ! the 18th the New Ravens will play in Wor- cester, and on the 20 and 21 in Lowell. | Neither the Hartford or New Haven club has
 an Atlantic league game scheduled for Mon- day, September 23, so that the fourth game for the State championship will be played
 that day. Newark will play in New Haven
 on the 24, 25 and 26, and wind up the league
 season here. On the 27th the New Ravens
 and Newarks will meet in Newark and finish
 the season there. The State championship
 series will be finished there on either Sep.
 tember 30th or October 1st. Six games vii
 be played at any rate, and seven if necessary Three will be played in Hartford, three ir
 New Haven and one possibly on neutra
 grounds.
