Text	A great sensation will be caused in base ball circles by the fact here announced the first time—that Fred. Dunlap, late of the Cleveland Club, who is, take hi all round, in batting, fielding and base running, the best second baseman in the country, has jumped the reserve rule and signed with the new St. Louis Club. Fred. went from Philadelphia to New York, November 19th, and there met Mr. Lucas. After some negotiation Dunlap appended his signature to a contract, binding him to play in St. Louis next season for $3,400, one thousand of which was paid him in advance before he returned to Philadelphia. Dunlap's desertion will be a heavy loss to the Cleveland Club. Fred. says he has fulfilled all his obligations toward Cleveland to the end of his contract, which left him free to dispose of his services as he saw fit, reserve or no reserve.
