Text | We are daily in the receipt of letters inquiring whether the Cincinnati Club is in the League, notwithstanding the assurances in the affirmative which appeared in these columns a week or ten days ago. To end all doubt we wish to state here that the Club is as much in the League as the Chicagos, and is governed by all the League rules. A paper was drawn up some three weeks ago, and signed since by all the other League Clubs, declaring the new Cincinnati Club to be readmitted to the League, and that its old games prior to June 1st and those subsequent to July 2d should be counted in the League race, throwing out only those between those dates, which is three with the St. Louis Club, two with the Chicagos and two with the Louisvilles, all lost games. After the Louisvilles lost their Fourth of July game they were inclined to back out of the proposition, and signed the agreement under protest but all have signed, the Hartfords being the last, and the paper is now of full force. |
