A leading member of the Brooklyn Basel-Ball Club said tonight [11/13] that there was no probability that that organization would go into the National League. The same opinion was expressed about the Cincinnati club. The Brooklyn club has not been asked to go into the league, and the chances are that such an invitation, if made, would be declined, for the reason that such a change would stop their Sunday games, from which all the profit is derived. It can therefore be put down as a certainty that the Brooklyn club will remain in the association.
