PR Whe Foreign Experts Prove Easy : Victors Over the Chi- L cAgoans. ‘The Bifliard Tonrnament st Kingabury Musio Hall was well attonded yestorday aftornoon and evening. Tho manngemont swas rathier baokward in making tho necossary proparations for the @gamos, the staging ond tablo not being put up 1n time, and the hall being as- cold a8 & barn in tho aftornoon. The heating arrangoments should bo proporly looked after in the future, a¥ tho players fool the cold more than the spec- tatore, having to stand around for hours ata timo barehosded and in thoir sbirt: slooves. The display of vkill was not up to tho standard by auy menns, but there is every reason to bo- Yiovo that thoso who attend to-day will bo amply sompongated for the timo spont. Two of tho big playors, tho follows who aro struggling for tho largo yrlzop, will como tm‘:’thflr. and from tuis timo forward thore will one or more g:uuou betweon thom overy day. Annexed is & olailod necount of the nmusement yostorday : THE BRVENTIT GAME ©f tho tournsmont was bogun some time aftor tho appointed hour, owing to & misunderatand- ing with rogard to tho arrangemonta of tho liall. o players woro Joseph Dion, of New York, end Goorge Slosson, of this city. Mr, John W. Blaisdell ncted as refores, In pools sold provious to tho game, botting was oven, it being Eonerally considored that, the young Clioago ©xport was fully o match for his moro ronowned Eastorn oppoucnt. Tho gamo was & vory ordi- ®ary ono up to the fifth inning, when Slosson ot tho balls togothot, and mado a run of 30 by ursiug, A Irceze, whon tho throo balls could bo rovored by & man's hand, put on end to tho dis- Play, tho spot sbot boing missod. It'was not until the éighth inning thot Diou did anything worthy of ~notice, his pll{ in the provious Innings being very poor. In thab funing ho mado ¥0, & palpablo scratch on tho fourtosnth whot liolping Lim along, In the' twelfth iuning Blosgon, nftor making 8, misscd an essy draw, Rnd loft tho balls close togother noar & cornat For Dion, who played them well for 26, missiug only on a difficult cushion shot. In the follow- Ing inning Joo, who had regained his accustomod ¥poed, and was playing o romarkably stroug gamo, medo o protly run of 81, to which ho added ouo of 28 in tho succeodin, loning, The latter turned him on his nomn%l hundrod, ‘tho scoro standing: Diot, 108; Blos- mon, 63.

In the twenty-second Inning ho had made an even 100, and was then B0 pointa bebind. In the Twonty-sixth inning ho mado o run of 13, and from this point to the Torty-first innlog tho game was tho droariest public exhibition of billiards by profossional playors that hns boen witnoseed in _Chicago for many & day. The inning mentioned was notice- ablo morely bocause Dion turncd on his third hundred, whioh was somo raliof to the goneral Mmonotony. It took the Eastorn player twonty- soven innings to mako a littloloss than 100 points, and from this the reader can judgo the charactor of tho gamo. Blogson Was gl‘?fi.nfi infinitely worse than his opponont, tho showing that he was only 124 to his opponout’s 205. In tho lorii‘-thkd inning Dion -astonished overy bo- holdor by running 18, and Slosson inoreasod tho E::l“d Wwonder by & run of 10 in the succeodini ing. Arun of 88 by Dion iu the forcy-fitth Inning was tho firet piece of good play that tho sudionco had witnesged for an hour, aud they applauded it foebly. It was absolutely distress- ing to watch Slosson’s game, which was s series of freezes and bad misses, and,when ho failed to cont, o was certain to leave them in good position for bis oppouont. Jeo could not help mnking o little Tun oconslonolly. An average player sround any of our billinrd hnlls could avo dono 8s well, In tho fifty-ninth inniu Dion, by & run of 26, turnod on his Just hundred, the game stending 826 to 188 in his favor. Bloeson turned Lis sccond hundred in thoe sixty- ninth inning, the score standing 208 to 847, and in tho following inning he mado 27, after -Dion loft tho bulls in o heap for Lim. ‘The Chicago player picked up somewhat toward the closo, 58 shown by runs of 30 and 18, but Dion put' n sud tothe woarisomo gamein tho eighty-second Inning by & run of 18, atter two hours and a Lnlf spent shivoring around_tho table, The playors was_ playing a - Bmith oficiatod aa referce.

Thoe Court would only deal with tho graver objoctions raised to 'the nssossmont, ns it was impossible to doal with all tho objos- tiona brought forward, most of which aro based upon putely tochnical grounds and wre un- worthy of note. The Court decided that the objection that tho aet of 1869, and nmended st 1, | of 1671, failod to q‘:pl{ to Lincoln Park wag not valid, because 1t the Iawa did not apply to that 9, | porkc’ thoy could not bo mado to spply % | fo nny othora within ‘the jurisdiction of the Siato of Iilinois, ~Tho amondatory act of 1871 provided for tho Fnymaul of condomned_linds by the issue of munic- ipal bonds, Lincoln Park moots all the ro- quiremonts ' of that nck tho objeotion of the amendatory natura of the act boing of no svail beeause tgn lsw was conatitutional, although amendatory. ‘Lho objection thot tho partics making tho assesement woro not ce;gnuto nuthorities on the ground thet the Loglalature, having cstablished, by tho union of the corpora- tions, a district, aud placed it, fori’mrpoflul dog- ignated 1n the act, uuder tho Park Co B sloners’ control, is oqually untenablo.
