NEW HAVEN ADMITTED.
The Eastern League Votes TO Admit
Both This City and Providence-A
Meeting OF the League 10 be Held In
Syracuse Thursday.
New Haven and Providence will both be
members of the Eastern league this season.
This fact has at last been definitely de-
cided upon. The result has been brought
about by the indomitabls push and energy
of Manager Burnham. The admission of
both cities is the effect of Manager Burn
hams master stroke last Friday, when he
visited President G. d. White in New
York city at the lstter's invitation, and
while there filed formal application with
him for the admission of both cities. Presi-
dent White Immediately wrote to each
club and asked them to write or telegraph
him their votes in reference to the ques-
ton. 1t required two-thirds vote to en-
able the clubs to be admitted, Yesterday
President White received the votes of all
the clubs, and they were found to stand
six in favor of the admission of the two
cities and two opposed.
The result of the vote was at once COM
municated to Manager Burnhsm with the
official announcement from President
White that by the vote both cities had
been admitted to the league on the basis of
ten-club circuit. A meeting of the
league will be held at the Globe hotel, Syr-
acuse, Thursday noon for the express pur-
pose of ratifying the action and formally
admitting New Haven and Providence to
the circuit. Manager Burnham and George
T. White will attend this meeting, the lat
Ter to look out for the interests of the local
team. At this meeting Mr.. White will pay
the annual dues of $125 and also deposit
the 81 900 guarantee to remain in the asso-
citation throughout the entire season.
There is also a movement on foot in the
Eastern association to allow each of the
clubs to sign four players irrespective of
the apportionmcnt scheme. This matter
will also probably be definitely decided
upon at the meeting Thursday and If it is
adopted there is strong probability that
in addition to playing Manager Shannon,
Jimmy" Donnelly and Henry Gruber
will be members of the local team.
Manager Shannon will probably be here to-
day to look after the interests of the local
club. 1t lie safe to predict that "Dan"
will secure a team to represent this city
second to none in the league.
