Joined President, Who Asks
an Early Reply.

NEW YORK, Jan. 4-James S. SulIi-
van of this city, representing A. G..
Spalding, who is in Aiken. S. c., today
made public a copy of letter written
by Mr.. Spalding at Aiken and dated Jan.
2, which Spalding has written to Messrs.
Dreyfuss, Soden, Reach, Knowles, Eb-
bets, Brush, Hart and Robson, of the
National league. He signs it as an indi-
Vidual, not as president, saying that he
knows of nothing which will prevent
him from carrying on personal cor
respondence as individuals. He writes.
among other things:
Il met in Washington, D. c., Edward
B. Ta:cott, formerly managing director
of the New York club, whom [ urged, for
the good of the game in New York city
and elsewhere, to again become interest
ed in the sport in that city, and if the
stockholders of the New York club are
disposed to sell their holdings at a rea-
sonable price [ think he and his friends
might be induced to join in uplifting our
national game, While I count myself as
one of his friends, yet under no eircum-
stances will l directly or indirectly make
any financial investment in the New
York or any other ball club; but the OPP
portunity is offered for the stockholders
of the New York club to negotiate the
sale of their holdings to Mr.. Talcott,
should they deem it for their interest t.
do So"
Mr.. Spalding thinks that the National
league leaders have had sufficient time
to study the present situation of affairs,
AMI 50 he asks each of those to whom
his letter is addressed to answer it, in
order that the letter may reach him at
the Albemarle hotel. tbs city, not later
than Jan. 6. He asks them to give their
individual impressions and views on the
situation with such information and sug-
gestions as may have a bearing on the
future conduct of the campaign.
