Five teams were entered in the Mercantile League and two In the Junior City League section at th: meeting, of the Mercantile and City Junior League on Thursday night and indications are that.a third team will be secured for the junior City League group to add interést to the battles in this section. Only two clubs have thus far entered, but it is surprising that at least one more téam has not already entered. In a city the size] of Kingston there should be the ma- terial, but the one to gather a team together and take command ¢anfot be found. Up to last night there were four aa doit teams in the Mercantile section, the |} Printers, Plumbers, Bankers and Wholesalers. Tanners eénteréd the race last night with a team and will round out a strong League for the summer months from which some good baseball should. result. Wholesalers brought out the plea at the meeting last night that only three players of last season were available for the team and Manager |} Dodd asked for permission to draw from the retail trades. There was strong opposition to th's, but it was finally decided that. Mr.Dodd be al- lo to submit a list of players to the League for consideration before |§ final permission is granted. As a result of the fact that only two entries were made in the fanior series, applications will be received from any club during the next two weeks. It is hoped by that time to have a third team in the League. It is rumored that a team from the vi- cinity of the Collegiate Instithite will be entered. This will be good news if such a team enters. N. Morrisey, of the Tanners' Club was elected third vice-president of the League last night at the nesting. || Messrs. W. I, Hammond and W.
