better sport both in this city and state
and New York. as the managers of the

and by the jumping of contracts Both
leagues signed an agreement yesterday

oided to play a worlds series between
the winners of both leagues, provided
the managers and players feel so In
clined. The schedule will be arranged
by the two presidents, namely, William
Jacob Scheffer, of the Eastern League.
and A Stack. of the New York State
League. Another agreement was that
any club of either league violating any
part of the agreement would be fined
500, which will go to the league not
at fault.
There was some little discussion over
the players who have been signed by

who formerly played a forward posi-
ton on the Glovervile five. Frankei,
who had been released by a club from
New York and signed by Trenton, was
allowed to remain with the Bengals.

Henschel to the New York League.
Roy steele, who jumped to the Cam
den team, was allowed to remain in the
Eastern organization. Sedran. who had
signed with Greystock and who was on
the reserve list of the Utica five, will
be allowed until September 26 by the
commission to decide with which team
he will play. Grmstead, of Utica. and
signed by Reading, will also be allowed
to decide by letter on September 26

stock, was the cause of a wordy tilt
