[from a Baltimore correspondent] Rumors concerning the organization of another professional base ball club in this city being prevalent, your correspondent has been to some trouble to run them to earth, with the following result: One of the street car companies is interested in the enterprise, and offer grounds and investment of capital if required. About $20,000 have already been pledged. Indeed, the question of capital may be eliminated from the problem, as I am informed more is offered than will be required, the stipulation being that first-class players be provided. It is intended that this team shall be either of the League or the proposed new association.
