There is a scheme on foot just now that may result in the organization of another association that will be allied to the Unions. All three of the Western clubs in the last named organization will run reserve teams. There are several good cities in this vicinity not as yet represented in any of the associations under the win and governed by the “freeze-out” rules of the Tripartite Slave Monopoly. Clubs have been organized in several of these cities, and these with the three reserve teams will constitute enough clubs to form a separate association. A schedule of championship games will be arranged between them, and their contests will prove quite a counter-attraction to the games of the older association teams, the outside members of the new association will also be able to compete with the regular teams in the Union Association, a privilege that some of the teams so anxious to sign the national agreement will not enjoy, as the clubs in the older associations will have all they can do to play out their own championship schedule of games.
