baseball brotherhood and it. mien lions.
One evening last s:iaw « Edward Han¬
lon called on meytiul as ed if I did not
have a ball ground on my street cat-
line.. I told him theie were two. Then
he spoke of how the league had broken
faith with the players so often, and said
that he, Ward, Pfeffer and Fogarty on
their trip around the world had thought
of getting capital in each city to build
the grounds tor them, tor which they
would allow a fair percentage for their
risk, the players to receive a portion of
the profits of the thing.

The result was that after a long talk
and the assurance of the feelings of all
the players, I agreed to lend all the as¬
sistance within my aim. power to help them
accomplish their As meeting each visiting after

heard our views and had had been been and d gi given
chance to express himself suggest sug

best interests of such an organization.
Detail* of the Scheme.
Our board of directors will be com¬
posed of an equal number representatives of stockhold¬
ers and players, being
elected from the number may ng up the
ball club in each city. Whilst at first
sight one may be ini-led into thinking
that co-operation is against good discip¬
line, yet we think, our interests being
identical, that with strict rules there is
a sufficient guaranty that instead of
lessening we will increase Ithe chances
of better behavior on the part of the
men, and as wo intend that the first club
shall receive $7,000, the second $5,000,
the third $3,000, the fourth $2,000, the
fifth $1,500, the sixtli $1,000 and the sev¬
enth $500, offering no inducement to the,
last, there will lie even to the end of the
season something more than empty
honor, as at present, to play for.
Confident, of' soreess,
I know of but three league players to¬
day who have not pledged themselves
