It may not be known, but it is a fact, nevertheless, that at the time the Providence Club were threatening to withdraw from the League, if Gross was not restored to the white list, the Pittsburg Club, had Al. Pratt quartered in Providence, watching results. If the threat had been fulfilled, and the Providence Club withdrawn, Pratt would have signed Ward, Hines, Farrell, Start and York within an hour after the news arrived.
