base ball league, and this year ii went
through a full season with six clubs, and,
II Il may appear strange, made a little
money. That Is the first time, so far as
know, that base ball ever has prospered to
that extent outside Of the United states.
Most of the players who are now con-
nected with the English Base Ball league
are foot ball players in the fall and winter.
There is an interim in which they have lit
tie to do in an athletic way and they have
been only too eager to grasp an opportunity
to play the American game, especially when
they have such aid coaching by Amer
lean college boys who are now completing
their education on the other side Of the

foot ball elevens are quite as enthusi-
Sstic- over picking up base ball for sum-
mer game as are the players, since they
believe that their men are in better condi-
ton to play foot ball in the cold months
after they have had field exercise all the
summer. All those connected in profess
sional capacity with foot ball with whom
had opportunity to converse assured me
that they thought the introduction OF base
ball as a professional summer pastime in
England was one of the best moves which
had been made in their athletic world.
So far as 1 could see the English anna

ISOLATION foot ball In England is almost the
national game, as compared with what we

Chicago has been selected for the annual

has not been held in New York. The ex-
ecutlve committee had previously an
nounced the annual meeting for January
10 at Delmonico's. This is now rescinded
and the executive committee makes an
nouncement Of Friday evening, January 49,
as the time and Chicago the place. Secre-
tary Morgan states that the action is taken
in response to a petition signed by the
western golf clubs and by large number
Of prominent players in the west. The

share In conducting the national champion
ships, would seem entitled to the annual
