[from the Louisville correspondent] Mullane has left the city after a three weeks' visit. Tony is perfectly willing to sign in Cincinnati, but he argues that if he was worth $3,200 to sit on the bench last season, he is worth more than $2,000 to pitch two of each three games this sdason. Tony don't stop to think that he was paid too much last year. He also complains that the $2,000-limit rule is unfair, as it brings the salary of the pitcher down to prices of other players. Whey thye should receive more and only play one-half or one-third as many games he does not explain. Tony will be there in the spring, tra-la-la-la, no matter how he talks now.
