Mr. Spalding, of the Chicago Club, in speaking of the new departure of the League in allowing pitchers to adopt any delivery, said that he thought it would not materially affect the result of the game; that is has always been a difficult thing for an umpire to just tell exactly where a jerk left off and a throw began; that this pitching question caused any amount of difficulty heretofore, and promised to do so in the future, if something definite was not done by the League, and the only solution of the question seemed to lie in the direction pursued.
