The gamblers behind the scheme had planned to bet every dol- lar they could get on the Louisville team, The odds were big-something like 5 to 1 that Chicago would win t series.

And that is just what happened. \Assuming that the - game was fixed, the gamblers went abead and bet every dollar they could muster on Louisville to win-and Louisville was beaten! \Not being absolutely gure that my players hadn't been tampered with in person, I called them together before the game began. I told them that there was a scheme afoot to have Chicago throw the game and the series to Louisville. And then I told my boys that the first imperfect play on the | part of anyone of them would meanl not only his removal from the game , but his expulsion from baseball. | \And to this day, I regard the play- l ing of my Chicago team that after-; noon, as the most perfect I have ever . seen any club perform.

'We won-essilv-and the terrific financial loss which the gamblers suf. fered that day cured many of them forever of the plunging fever, \Immediately after our series was over, I went to William H. Hulbert, president of our club, and laid all the facts before him. \'This is the climax,' said Hulbert. 'Bageball is a sport and should be kept a clean sport. Gambling should not enter into It. Unless we take some drastle steps now the game will be wrecked on the rocks of crooked- ness.\ \And Hulbert, one of the | finest sportsmen the game ever has produc- ed, then went to the other club own- ers, made a formal complaint against Craver, Devlin and Hall and brought about their expulsion. The story of the framéeup was given wide publicity at the time and it served as a lesson to all other ball players. i \Untill that time, baseball had been controlled by an organization known as the National Association of Profes- sional Baseball players. \'It is not powerful enough and its scops is too limited,\ said Hulbert. 'A new ruling body is needed-one with absolute authority: one which can stamp out dishonesty arid gambling in baseball. _ \And so Hulbert, working unceas- ingly during the winter of 1875 and itr.
