The League Alliance Clubs will not have, and do not deserve, any particular respect in their efforts to enforce the ban against Walker, an expelled member of the St. Paul Red Cap Club, so long as the Athletic Club, a member of the League Alliance, presents in its nine an expelled player named Say. It was no credit to the League when the Boston Club failed to respect this expulsion and played against the Athletics with Say among them. If the League, which was formed for the purpose of putting down dishonesty, doesn’t refuse to play against expelled players, how can it hope to induce any more honesty than it shows? This Say has now gone to Buffalo, and the Auburns, Crickets, and Stars should see that they don’t get into trouble over his case.
