The fourth championship game between these clubs [Mutual and Philadelphia] took place at Brooklyn, N.Y., July 7, in the presence of about a thousand spectators, quite a falling-off from the Fourth of July game, in which the receipts exceeded $3,200, each player earning $107 [implying the gross receipts were split three ways].
