A LEAGUEJEETIIIG Two Local Baseball Men at Cincinnati, Sunday. Frank Crump and James Braxton, president and team manager, respectively, of the Richmond baseball association attended the meeting of the K. I. O. league held yesterday at Cincinnati, at which a set of new rules and regulations were perfected and a number of important matters decided upon. Fourteen of the old by-laws of the league were revamped and several new ones added. The most important addition made was the rule regulating the signing of players, in former years many of the teams played without having signed players and as this led to many disputes and entanglements it was decided to force every club in the organization to sign every player. The season will open the first Sunday in May and close the last Sunday in September. Two open dates will be set aside, which will give the clubs an opportunity to play off postponed games or to play independent teams. Three umpires will be appointed by President Cliff Martin. Just as soon as the list of excursion dates is announced by the railroads the schedule committee will get down to outlining the season's battles. At the next meeting which will be held near the end of the month the schedule will be adopted.
