Cleveland-and that the matter would be
decided within forty-eght hours.
President Edward Hanlon of the Balti-
more Base Ball Club went to New York
yesterday morning, presumably to consult
with the other owners of the Brooklyn
club upon the present base ball crisis. The
facts they will have to consider are some
thing like this:
Freedman's determination to hold out for
an eiSht-club league at any cost.
The unwillingness of the other owners to
pay the price demanded for the franchise
of the four cities which it is desired to
drop from the league.
The movement that is on foot to form
an American Association which will fight
the league in its own grounds
The facts that capitalists in Washington,
Baltimore, Louisville and other cities have
announced their willingness to back teams
in their bailiwicks to fight the National
League.
With these and numerous minor phases
of the situation to consider Mr.. Eanlon can
spend some very busy days in New York.
His principal weapon is the national agree
ment, but his opponents threaten to
drop both Baltimore and Brooklyn from the
league at the expiration of the agreement
which would shut Mr.. Hanlon out of league
ball altogether. He would be able to meet
the defense by saying that he will throw
the weight of his money. influence and ex-
perience with the American Association and
fight the league to a standstill.

GENERAL SPORTING NEWS

Harry D. Quinn of Milwaukee. president
and promoter-in-chief of the new American
Base Ball Associa ton, stopped in New York
yesterday on his way from Boston TO Phila-
delphia. Mr.. Quinn has been to Boston and
Providence during the past week, accom-
panied by Frank Richter of Philadelphia,
to look over the field in the hub and to size
up the possibilities of the Rhode Island
metropolis becoming a member of his new
league
Mr.. Quinns tarry in New York is to en-
deavor to get Jim Corbett to influence his
brother Joe to pitch for Mr.. Quinns Mil
waukee team the coming season.
Mr.. Quinn was seen last night. and in
reply to the question as to the prospects of
the new American Association. said:
Il am very much encouraged with the
outlook in Boston and my reception there.
Preparations for establishing the club there
are much further advanced than had sup
posed. being due, l suppose, to the policy of
secrecy which the American association
has adopted recently at my suggestion.
Charles River Park just across the Charles
river from Boston, has been leased by Bcs-
ton parties, who have plenty of money. 1
am not at liberty just now to mention their
names, but Tommy Mccarthy, the old Bos-
ton player, and lore recently with the
Park has seating capacity of 10000. and
is as accessible as the South End grounds
of the Boston National League Club.
LAS to New York" Mr.. Quinn continued.
1.-The outlook is not bright for our locating
a club here This is entirely owing to the
difficulty in securing suitably located
grounds. New York is a city 1 should like
to have in our circuit. 1t would round us
up in the east exactly right And we might
land here yet. We still have hopes. But
even if We do not that will not head off the
American Association, That organization
is on deck to go into the business this year
and to stay. We do not desire a fight with
the older league, but suppose we will have
to give them one"
1t is expected that the much mooted and
important question of a reduction of the
one way or another this week.

DICK GRANT ENTERS.
Will Run in Two Races in the Con-
-vSnfion Hall Meeting.


The management of the indoor athletic
meet to be held at Convention Hall Feb
ruary II, under the auspices of Georgetown
University, are very much gratified by the
number of entries which have already
reached them. Among those which have
arrived during the last two days is that
of Dick Grant, the Harvard flyer, who will
start in the $50 intercollegiate and one-miIe
handicap, and Frank Kerran, the Pennsyl-
Nania state champion, at the middle dis
tance. Grant has done 1.55 for the half
and 40 for the mile. while his brother
Aleck, the Pennsylvania crack, has gone
one-fifth of a second faster at each dis
lance. The meeting of the brothers is al
ways an occasion of a fierce fight for first
place, and, although the Harvard man is
the older the red and blue wearer has one
more victory to his credit.
Herman will prove a hard man to beat
on an indoor track He runs corners as
well as he does in the open, and his short
stride is particularly suitable for a track
such as the Convention Hall course
