As soon as the Athletics received the news that the Atlantics had ceased to be champions, they sent on word that they would not play the new series of games so lately arranged for, as they would have no chance of becoming champions, and nothing to gain. The Atlantics did not view the matter in the same light, and, having their nine in readiness on Thursday, at the Union grounds, claim a ball on the failure of the Philadelphians to put in an appearance.
