Both officials agreed that some plan

At this blaze no tre-lines were

story of a Pennsylvania miner who
late one autumn was imprisoned while

This, though, proved TO be a task OF
enormous difficulty. On account OF the

Time the O.-P. League Was
Failing and That Richmond
Would Be Considered.
THIS CITY MUCH DESIRED,
MANAGERS IN THE OLD CIRCUIT
LOOK FAvoRAsLY TOWARD THE
QUAKER CITY AS A MONEY!
MAKER.

AS was predicted in the Palladium
yesterday. the Ohio-Pennsylvania
league has disrupted and the four
western towns, Mansfield Marion.
Newark, and Lancaster, will organize
a circuit to include eight cities. The
eastern cities, under the terms of the
agreement to disband the O.-P. league
will contribute $1,000 to the western
selves into a new league. Richmond
is certain to be a member of the new
circuit. Several weeks ago Manager
Jessup Of the local club was ap-
preached in regard to having this city
included in the new league. He gave
no definite reply to the proposition,
preferring to wait for the rumored
disruption of the o. P league. The
managers of the clubs in the western
section of this league are still anx-
ious for Richmond to accept a fran
chise in the new league and it is al
most an assured fact that this city
will be included. The baby" league
will be one Of the best minor circuits
in the country and fast article of
baseball will be offered. The follow
ing dispatch will be of interest:
