Charleston Franchise Likely Change of Hands Next Year
Charleston, Aug 2. Attendance at baseball games has dwindled amid management dissension. The local team has faced player cuts and poor performance, with Morris sent to Savannah for a small fee. Rumors say the franchise may be offered to New Orleans partners or Charleston street railway interests, and a change of ownership is anticipated after this season ends. Turner’s sale was rejected by Vender, who plans to acquire Darlington’s Wenty and Foster after August 18.
