[byline Caylor] [reporting on the AA special meeting 11/22 – 11/231886] ...There were three sessions, lasting nearly two days. The result has been the selection of Cleveland to fill the vacancy made by Pittsburg's secession.

There were three candidates, viz., Detroit, Cleveland and Kansas City—the former having applied only provisionally. It was the opinion of the cool-headed reasoning peole, that the Detroits were at no time in real earnest; that they were a League club hear and soul, and saw an opportunity to use the special meeting of the Association to attain their own ends, and the results show this to have been pretty conclusively the case.
