BASE BALL.

BROOKLYN, n. Y, Oct. 25.-The weather was
cold, and the grounds wet and muddy. The
game was the fifth of the series for the cham
pionship of the world between the respective
winners of the National League and the Ameri-
can Association. The Bridegrooms won their
third victory easily. The Kentuckians have won
one game of the series and one was a tie. The
Brdegrooms played a remarkable game, their
fielding work being perfect. Donovan's base
running was brilliant, while the batting of the
home team was timely. Score:

No matter how the fight terminates between
League and Brotherhood, there will be team
here next season. Mr.. Michael Scanlon has
given it out that he and a syndicate of gentle
men have concluded all the arrangements. 1t
will be an American Association club, and 1t is
the purpose of the committee in whose charge
the affairs are to secure as strong a team as
possible in the field Among some of the talent
they are desirous of securing are Conny Mack
and Haddock. Of the Buffalos; Whistler, of the
New Yorks; Esterbrook, Bader, McGeachy and
several Others One of the greatest troubles
that will arise will be the location Of grounds,
and this will be stumbling block In the march
of the club. A situation in the central portion of
the city, in close proximity to all the street-cars,
is now under advisement, probably Van Ness
Park and when it is selected it will meet with
favor on all sides.
THE HERALD was the only paper to announce
last Sunday that in the conference between the
League and Brotherhood clubs the former
would treat only with the stockholders and di-
rectors of the latter organization, and under no
circumstances would they hold any meetings
with the players who deserted them last season.
| The authority for the statement was the highest
official in the League. The statement was veri-
| fed on Monday at the meeting of the Brother
| hood, for when they appointed a committee of
| players to act in conjunction with the one ap-
| pointed from their directors they were politely
| Informed that the League did not want to
meet them under any circumstances. The play
ers became wrathy and refused point blank to
continue negotiations any further, and without
making any provisions for their directors to
carry on the deal adjourned sine die. The next
move will be watched with interest.
Whew what are we coming to? Just think
of the Boston management of the National
| League club Offering A. Q. Anson, of Chicago,
$25,O00if he would play in that city next season.
Anson was thunderstruck at the offer, and
would have accepted had he not been on the
reserve list of the Chicagos He is worth every
cent of it if Kelly Of the Bostons, is worth $40,
600. With such big offers for players it looks
odd to hear the clubs talking about bad business
in 1890.
Mr.. Allen H. Thurman, of Columbus Ohio
a magnate in the League, says that the Broth
erhood will have hard time to pull out in Gin.
cinnati, Notwithstanding the treachery of Messrs
Stern ct al The League will place team
there and maintain it at all hazards. This
looks like war again for 1891
There will be no Brotherhood team in Buf
falo next year, as the Players League had tc
pay all their salaries this year The club was
rank failure and as 1t was bad tai-ender nc
enthusiasm was aroused in the city. They vii
be jumped into some other cline next year.
Old reliable Paul Hines, of the Boston League
club, is here for the winter. He will play agaiI
in Boston next season.
Charley Snyder, the ball player and Brother
hood umpire, has returned to the city for tn,
winter.
Kinslow, of the Brooklyn Players team, il
back at his home in this city.
