Text	“To-night Captain Glasscock called at the Bates House and informed Anson that the Indianapolis Club would insist upon Williamson running his own bases or remaining out of the game. “It's a mean trick,” said Williamson to-night. “They are simply forcing me to sit on the bench or risk straining my leg, which is not strong enough to do hard base-running.” It certainly does look to be a small piece of business.” – Chicago Tribune. Glassock's act was undoubtedly not due to any desire to injure genial Ned, but to concede nothing to the man who never concedes anything to anybody else—Captain Anson. The latter has more than once declined to allow badly injured men substitutes, and his treatment of catcher McGuire some years ago is still fresh in mind.
