It is to be made up of eight clubs, as follows Boston, New York, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Cleveland, Buffalo, and Chicago. Of these two are new clubs, and not in the present National League. They are Brooklyn and Buffalo. The present Indianapolis team is to be dropped bod fly into Brooklyn, where Association ball and Sunday games are said to be unpopular.

 In each city local capitalists are to operate teams formed and placed there by the Brotherhood, giving a bond of s25, 0Oo for the performance of their part of the work. Albert l.. Johnson is tho Cleveland capitalist, and his active par ticipation in the deal as missionary caused him to be mistaken for it's nat ional head. It has no national heaa at this time outside of the officers of the Brotherhood. The Nssociation's officials are to be elected this fall.
 The players are guaranteed their sal aries at the 1889 rate for 1890, and a share of the profits. All expenses and receipts are to be pooled for the general benefit, and gate receipts divided equally between tho clubs. The first s1o,ooo profit is to go into prizes to be distributed among the clubs as playing prizes, s5, 900 to first, s2, 500 to second, s1, 800 to third, and s1,OOO to forth, Of tho first sso,ooo after this, s1o,ooo goes to the capitalists, S10,0OO to those of each club. The next ssO,ooo goes to the players, and all other profits are pooled half and half. Each player shares equally with the others.
 Each club is to be governed by a | board made up of eight men-four cap 1 itaNsts and four..players-and the main body by senate of sixteen, 0 ach club having two representatives. one aplayel and the other capitalist.

He has for this reason finished the preliminary work, completed the organization of the office and Is now prepared for the collection and compilation of statistics.
