Charlotte to Remain in Present Clrcult- The dispatches from Chattanooga relative t0 Charlotte's entrance Into the South Atlantic League are not corroborated by the holders of the present franchise In the Carolina As sociation. It Is understood that Charlotte will make no bid for higher company the next year, but will re main in the present circuit. The management considers It unwise to attempt such a. move at present, When baseball Is practically an . e periment here. The Jong Jumps which the other company would necessitate won I.I not be profitable, It is believed, and for that reason it is deemed wisest to remain In the Carolina league.
