with the Union Pacific team, of Omaha,
Neb., but as his playing was remarkably
good his services were much sought after
by managers of other clubs, and early in
June he joined the st. Paul club, North

In the following year he was with the
Clevelands, of the Western association,

July he was secured by the management
of the Memphis team, of the Southern

In 1856 Carroll was a member Of the Utica

championship that year. He was with the
same team in 1857 till July, when the club
dlsbanded and he transferred his services
to the Clevelands, of the American associa-
ton.
In 1855 and 1889 Carroll captained the st.
Paul team, Western association, with great
success. Last fall he was sold TO the Min
neapolis club of the same association,
where he has since remained as captain.
Carroll is surpassed by no man in the
Western association as IN all round player
and excellent captain, and the Minneapolis
club under his guidance is making a bold
bid for the pennant Of the Western associ-
