Text	The Union association, at its recent meeting, decided to no longer regard any contract made by players with other associations, and of course it can have no cause to complain if the latter retaliate. A well-founded rumor is afloat that several players in the St. Louis, Baltimore and Chicago Union clubs will soon jump their contracts, and they have been encouraged to do so by this late action of their association.–[Post-Dispatch. I sounds rather queer to hear of the other associations “retaliating” on the Union association. When the Union association started they passed a resolution binding all the clubs in it to respect all contracts (including those of the League and American associations) and every one of the clubs lived up to this resolution. Yet notwithstanding their honorable action, the National League, Northwestern league and American association, particularly the latter, have been engaged in the disreputable work of enticing contracted players away from Union clubs.
