The American Association is to be congratulated on one result of Day’s Metropolitan “deal,” and that is that they have thereby got rid of the Metropolitan Exhibition Company’s baneful influence, which has been antagonistic to the interests of the association ever since that company was admitted to league membership. The whole difficulty which culminated in the now celebrated injunction case was, that in the determination of the majority of the members of the American Association to no longer submit to the trickery and deception they had been subjected to at the hands of the Metropolitan Club, they lost sight of the fact that there was a possibility that the sale of the franchise of the club was a bona fide disposal of “all right, title and interest” in the Metropolitan Club by the Metropolitan Exhibition Company, and in their haste to throw out the club they forgot to examine fully into the matter.
