Date	Sunday, March 7, 1875
Text	This committee had no legal right to hear any case whatever, and their action is, therefore not final or binding in the slightest degree, as in none of the cases had any of the charges been presented in writing on or before November 15 of the championship season in which such disputes had arisen. The championship code is very explicit on this point, and cannot be ignored. ... That the above-quoted se3ction of the championship code cannot be ignored, is proved by the action of the Judiciary Committee of 1873, they refusing to hear charges brought by the Philadelphias against the Bostons because they were not proffered in writing before November 15 of that year, and we would like to have N. E. Young, who was on the committees of 1873 and 1874, explain how it is that this rule, which was operative when used in the interest of the Boston Club, should be deliberately ignored and set aside when the Athletic Club was an interested party.
