Text | [reporting on the Philadelphia Club meeting of 2/10/1876] A communication from the manager of the St. Louis Club [probably Mase Graffen] was read, stating that, in his opinion, there would be no objection to the Philadelphia’s admission to the League, provided, however, that two of their officers–who are obnoxious on account of their alleged connection with the gambling ring–might be induced to resign. This communication, however, was not official, and no further action was taken upon it, especially in view of the fact that the League had adopted a rule that there should be but one club in each city. |
