the National league has caused a
devling into the ancient records OF the

can draw with one point OF the league
record OF ten pennants held by Chi

with Boston since but one pennant
separates the record of the two cities.
These three cities lead by comfort
able margin all the other cities which
from time to time have been repre-
sented in the National league. The
order in point OF pennants won is as
follows:
