Cincinnati, Aug a. Joseph Kelley,
manager OF the local National league
team, is authority for the statement that
there will be an American league club
In New York next year.
Since he assumed the management of
the Cincinnati baseball club, Kelley has
had much 70 do with the players who
are now playing In the rival organizat tin,
and he has learned OF the move.
II have approached several players In
the American league" says Kelley. land
some OF them have told me that they
have signed to play In New York on an
American league team. i cannot give any
names. but on investigation l find that
such a club is almost sure TO exist In
New York next year and that the play
ing grounds will be at Croton park In the
Bronx.
According to my information, the
grounds have already been secured. but
work on the erection OF stands. etc. has
been put of until after or nearly the close
OF the present baseball season.
That the Baltimore club franchise Is
TO be transferred 20 New York seems the
