DON'T WANT
COAST TEAM.
Expense Of Visit
Would Be Too
Great.

The Honolulu Baseball League al
yesterdays meeting decided not to at.
| tempt winter season of baseball
with a professional California team as
| the center of attraction.
The sentiment against bringing thu
! profes SIGNALS to the city was unari-
| nous. not that it is not the desire
Of the baseball men to furnish amuse-
ment for the fans, but for the simple
reason that the finances of the league
and of the individual teams are not
| in such shape as to warrant an ex-
penditure of $500, with a possible loss
| attending.
Every team in the league was rep
resented at the meeting in the Elks'
Hall yesterday afternoon the captains
and managers of each of the five teams
being present. Secretary Andrews
opened the meeting by reading the fol-
lowing letter, which President Isen-
berg had received:
