Text	A letter was received by Mr. Lucas yesterday from Wm. Warren White, secretary of the Union association. In it Mr. White states that the association is booming, and that applications for memberships have already been received from more clubs than they can accommodate. The writer complains that the older associations are howling that the new association is injuring base ball by disregarding the reserve rule. He says they themselves are doing far more to injure the case of base ball than the new association. As an instance he cites the case of Gunning of the Boston club. Mr. White says Gunning was signed by Mr. Henderson of the Baltimore and Chicago Union association clubs, and two weeks later he signed with the Bostons, and the fact was announced through the secretary of the league. The epistle concludes with a prediction of a very well attended meeting of the Union association at Philadelphia on the 18th instant. (St. Louis)
