Text | Mr. Phillips writes to the Enquirer from New York to say that he and Mr. Soule have come to an amicable and perfectly satisfactory settlement. Mr. Phillips confessed judgment at Philadelphia for $1,463 in favor of Soule, and gave him an order for the amount on his (Phillips') deceased uncle's estate. Mr. Phillips is now chief clerk at the Burdich Hotel, Chicago, where he is highly appreciated. Cincinnati Enquirer May 14, 1881 The League backs down with the Nationals A letter from the League head-quarters states: “When the Nationals of Washington, of 1881, either pay or demonstrate that they are not a reorganization of any previous National Club then all disqualifications will be removed. The League neither wishes to rule harshly nor be imposed upon.” -Chicago Tribune. That is a neat way for the League to back down once from its high horse. The Nationals were put under the League ban, and all the non-League Eastern Clubs solemnly warned under penalty of League displeasure and ostracism not to play the Washington outlaws. To this neither the Washington nor the other members of the Eastern organizations payed a particle of attention. Hence, the small hole through which the Boss and his crowd have crawled.
