MAGEE Is NOT IN BASE BALL.
PTTTsBURG, PA, December S.-The
story that G. L. Magee, w. A. Nimick,
Henry Brown and A. K. Scandrett are re-
viving the American Association in this

nor that secret meeting of the Associa-
tiou magnates was held in this city last
night also appears TO be without founda-
tion. G. L. Magee was seen to-day, and
when asked il he had any interest in the
new association, said: IL am not in the
base ball business and do not intend to get
inn He considered the rumor joke. A.
X. Scandrett said there was no truth in
the report.

tween Billy Mahan and Paddy Purtell,
