[reporting on the NL meeting of 9/22/1882] The secretary then read applications for membership from several of the American Association clubs. These were all rejected, however, on the ground that the policy of the League has always been to limit the number of clubs to eight, the present number, and the delegat5es present could see no reason for departing from this policy. Philadelphia Times September 23, 1882 [see also Cincinnati Enquirer of the same date, which notes the meeting was closed, and avers that the claim of AA clubs applying for membership is a lie]
