Tony Mullane has sued the Cincinnati Times-Star for $20,000 damages for libel. The article hints that he threw the 10 to 9 game in Brooklyn and refers to him contemptuously. Tony will probably claim $100,000 damages when he sues the Cincinnati Enquirer. The Philadelphia Times June 20, 1886

Tony Mullane has not yet filed his libel suit against the Enquirer. It is said that Tony has concluded to let the matter drop, but when accosted on the subject he maintains a provoking reticence. The Philadelphia Times August 15, 1886
