Text	[reporting on the meeting of 10/27-28/1883 of the Arbitration Committee] The agreement of the three Associations to strictly refrain from encroaching upon each others' territory is a concession all aorund which shows plainly how earnest the three Associations are in bringing about mutual good. This puts an end to all the idle gossip about League clubs locating in Baltimore, St. Louis or Cincinnati, or of Association clubs locating in Chicago or Boston. A further provision is made that, if desired at any time by any club, it can transfer itself from one association to another, and still maintain its right of territory. For instance, if a vacancy should occur in the League and the Cincinnati Club should deem it advisable to take the vacancy, the American Association could not put another club in Cincinnati.
