The Cincinnati Club yesterday concluded to expel Samuel Wise, and the Secretary was authorized to notify Secretary Williams of the Club’s action. Mr. Williams was notified by last night’s mail of Wise’s expulsion, and he, in turn, will immediately notify all American Association and League Clubs. The Club’s attorney has been requested to dismiss the injunction suit against Wise on account of its dilatory nature. Wise is now the only barrier that stands between the two Associations. If the clubs of the League wish friendly relations with the American Association Clubs they must induce the Boston Club to let Wise go. Cincinnati Commercial August 5, 1882

The Cincinnati Club has at last taken proper action in the case of Wise, the renegade who deserted the local nine last spring. They have decided to dismiss the injunction suit began at Boston against him, and hve notified their lawyer in the Hub of that conclusion. They then expelled Wise, and due notification was last evening forwarded to Secretary Williams. The other Clubs will receive official notice in a few days. This will bar all American nines from playing with League teams, even if the Troy difficulty was amicably settled. It is just the treatment that Wise deserves, and next year, if the American Association and League have an amicable understanding, he will find himself in the cold.
