It is scarcely probable that the reports are true that President Byrne, of Brooklyn, and Stern, of Cincinnati, advocate the dropping of Indianapolis and Washington from the League, for the reason that those gentlemen personally pledged themselves, at the ball meeting, to oppose any such move if Indianapolis and Washington withdrew their objection to the admission of the two Association clubs. Aside from this, it would certainly be in poor taste for clubs, whose League existence numbers but a few weeks, to talk about dropping cities which have been represented in the great organization for years.
