The Union Base Ball Association of Chicago, is the name of an organization backed by a combination of Baltimore and Chicago capitalists, who have taken a long lease on the vacant block on 38 the street, between Wabash and Michigan avenues, which they intend to convert into a fashionable base ball ground. A grand stand will be erected for 3,000 people, and instead of ordinary hard benches will be furnished with comfortable chairs. The association intends to be ready for business by June 18, and with the best nine that money can procure at this season of the year. They will play games in the American Alliance series.
