| Text | According to J. Palmer O'Neil the League has collected enough money to make good for those notes given to Brush, of Indianapolis, for League franchises and players, of which Boston is to pay about $8000, Chicago $7000, Brooklyn, Cincinnati, Philadelphia and New York about $6000, Pittsburg $3200 and Cleveland $3000. The Pittsburg Club has transferred five games to Chicago, seven games to Cincinnati, ten games to Philadelphia and six games to Brooklyn. The 10 per cent. on these games has been remitted to President Young by the various home club, abut the Pittsburg Club has received no credit whatever for the remittances. While the amount remitted on account of all these transferred games has been more than enough to pay these notes, President Young claims he has no right to apply the money mentioned to the Pittsburg notes. If Mr. Nimick pays these notes he will certainly get a drawback at the end of the season. It is understood Mr. Nimick will not settle the notes until Sept. 1. Sept. 1 has come and gone and the question is did Nimick settle? |
