J. C. Morse, of the Boston Herald, telegraphs as follows from Charlottesville, Va. “The University of Virginia has dared to show its contempt for the clubs under the protection of the National agreement by refusing to obey its mandate not to play Brotherhood clubs, and to-day it met the Boston ball club. One of the officers of the College Club said that he did not recognize any right except that of the faculty to dictate what clubs hsould be met on the diamond, and this opinion was shared by his college. Certain clubs had written to the University threatening to cancel dates if they played with the Brotherhood nine, and they laughed at such threats, informing the senders that they could do as they pleased about the matter.
