CII0AGO Y8, MUTUAL. Tor the first timo in tho bislory of hase ball in Ghienga tha national game has boen dingracod by palpable and unblushing fraud. Hitherto thoro lave been rumors and musploions that nnies were swayed and governed by tho monay thnt was wagared on the rasult, but until yostor- dny wo bollovo this charge could nover bo justly made rospeoting any tameo of base ball pluyed in Chiengo. And it is nomo comfort, t0o, to know that the homo oluo was uot the porpotrator of the feaud, This ditty pieco' of bunincsa was loft to & club which hns, for tho past six orseyen yenrs, onjoyed a doubtful ropute for unvarying honestv. As long aga as 1808 it usod to Lo said and belioved of tho Mtutuats of Now York that thioy were govorned by a 1log of gamblors, aud 5ames wore won or lost necording s tho gam- Dlots had placed theie monoy. That roputation Gina clung to the Mutual Club upto the present thne, and voatorday's oxinbition will go far tow- nrd demeroylng what * little confidonco there remninod in the mtegrity of the wmine. It s sald that one of the pluyers (Allion), disgusted with tho sinto of things which provailed, rocently de- clared thiat Lo would no lonyer bs idontifiod with such an ovgrinzation, and shonld leavo the nma a8 woon ns their gamos were concluoed - G- engo, This 1 & sexfous chargo to profor against n baso-buil oiab, aud it 18 not dono without neomiugly conclurive ovidrneo of its correctness, Firgt, 1t may be notcd as o significant fact Lhat a prowmont mumber of tho uine, holdlog & rosponsibla portion, was on s ‘*spreo™ Tios iy Aiht it company with bliko McDonald. leDonald yesterday foronoon investo) hoavily in pools on the gamo, buying lergo numbers ot na averago rato of throo and four to ouo, making tno While Stockings (he favorites, A Philadelphia onsc- Dall i alwo purchnsed many tickois on toe wamo condivons, Taose oxtiavrdinary odds agnivst & club which had wrcady ‘beaten thio White Stockings in evory gamo this son- son occasioned much surprie among bothing men, &ud an attempt was mado to oxplam the iuconnirtency by tho siatoment that Mathews, <ho Mulual pitchor, was aick, and could vot play his position, By mauy ths washeliaved; byolhors it was dicreditod, expeciully attor having sesn Aathows on taa flold, whoro hio appeared "to ba in partoct hcalth, and so far a3 ho played (fiva innings) bis pitching was as effective and difli- culs to bat aa it hnd ever boon found. Possibly iLwas too diflioult to sttt the schemes of gamn- blor, for Mathews retirod from tho nine at the clora of tho AIth inning, and Hattield finishod thio eame as pitebor, . Tho game apoucd with a whitewash on both sides,tho Chicazua poing first to thobat. Errorsby Allison and wides called on Mathows gave them w1 unoarncd rus in the secovd inning, while the Mutuals mado four unearpcd ruva througi otrors of Force and Zebtleln, — Thewo woro tho only runs _seorod by the Mutuals in the entire gnme. In the third inning, ines was changed from contro to short field, Colline taking right, and ‘W'rency conbro fiold, Hines' piay In the new pusition wus vory fino, and the same sliould bo said of Force i third. In the fourtn inning nn extraordinary piny wos mada by Mathows, who, though ho knew Neleon a8 nowbhero near the base, thtow to second, the ball going away out to oentre field, nud Msyorie gottlug to tird, In addition to tuss, Mathews gave Hines bis baso on wiley, o wafo hiv by Gloun beinging Meyorlo home, when the side ghould have boou out for a blank. Tho fifth inomg was short and sharp, viold- ing notbing for eithor mide. ‘Iho Wiites went out as fast ns they came to the bat, aud yet, at tho close of the iuning, it was announced that Mathows was to0 siok to piteh, nud he lefe tho nine, 'W'his nction, toga'hier with his provi- ous play, led tho spectaiors to bo'iove that a fraud was being porpatrated, snd the his s weve loud aud long as Mathows Jeft the fold. Iat- flold woni fu to pitch in tho sixth inning. Ilis delivery of tho ball is peifectly fair aud easy, and can be batted with porfect ense. Proof of this is fonnd in the Iact thnt oven base hits svero made off Hatfleld's pitching in the lust four inuings, againet a totsl of “two safo bits off Mathows' in the first five iunings. Wild throws by Carey,—whish had becomo so froquont as to be naticeablo,—togothor with a fiold-ball noglocted by Higham, who furthor holped the thing along by » torriflo ovorthrow, allowed the Whito Btockings to score two uu- oarnod rune in tho sixth innigg. ‘Tho last half of the inning was beautifuily flelded by the Whitzs, Force, Meyorle, aud Glenn distinguisbiug thomuolves, ‘The game waa noy a iie, and no rung wore acored until the niuth ining, the Mutuals batting listleasly and weakly. In the niuth invig Moyerlo and Hincs lod off with anfo hits, and an carnod run was brought in by & base-hit by Glevn. On the Mutusl side Romson lod off with a two-basar, and Cavoy was put out. Ilighsm reachiod first and ltemsou thitd on a slow throw by Meverle. Higham started off on & slow stoul from first, so slow az to seom doliborats, and was put out cneily by Mulone to Meyorle, withont giviog Tomson any chance to run in_from third,” Allis son bit up & high fly to Deyerlo, and the game wasendod. It wasa well-plsyed game by the White Stockings, but it seemod na though tho Mutusls bad no thought of winning at any stage. Phoro is ample rerson to bolieva that at least four of thbo players were hired to lose tho pgame; the rost naturally woro discouraged and dizhoartened by tho fact. 1t is said that two of the dutualmen wers aware of and denounced the contomplated fraud beforo tho gume bogan, bilk they wwere powerlens to pro- veut its connrutimation. ~ It was @ rich harvest for thy gamblers, who got oven betsas long as tnoy conld, nad then oifered fabulous odds that the Mutuels would bo beaten. To know that thoy had no chanca to win is o melancholy satia- faction to the victims, whose only consolation wil be o securo evidence to comviet the abottots of tho fraud, and canso their oxputsion by the Natiounl Association. I anybody fools & suficlent iuterest in it, this miy possibly e douo, though 1t in one thing to foul Bure that a gamo of base ball was * thrown," and anothor aud very dilfercut thing to bring absolute proof of the fact. B0 far as known, thoro is nothing to show that oithor the maunzemont or the membera of the Chicago Club ware aware of, ar paaunlarily {n- toroatod in, tho frand. The White Stockings played woll, though short of ono of their bosw players. ‘I'hey aid thoir best 1o avail thomuolvea of thie opportunity of winning » game whioh thoy could huva soarcely lowt if thoy had played theiv vory worst.

Sentwnel, July 25 ¢ Our gummututy "has beon visited by a great oalamity ; a calnwity in presence of which wan siands belpless snd _appalled, overawed by the mighty forcas of Nacve, For wome duys past our ordiuatily arid region has witneseou n raine full which would, even in tbe beight of tuo rauny sonson in Orogon, be rogarded ns phe- nmomanal, Yeaterduy morning & shurp shower, brokeu by gluupses of sunshino, grootod the eatly 1imers in our town. About 8:0 a. m. it assumod proportions throstening a soverostuim ; *ud vvan &t thut hour cunuider- ablo damage was dono by the llood ou Rupy Hitl. Aftor occasional lulle, at about 10 a, m. tho shower increasod in violouce ; the lightning grew moro vivid aud more frouont, and atill moro clusoly followed by the ominuvus thunder. The storm apparently pussed away, sud blna rifts of sky, baroingera of an unfounded hope, wola visiblo in the uorthorn heavens, Laton the bills to the south and west the boxds ot the @ieat and rrcclpunuu canons waick dobouci in o our valloy, stili hung gloomy and threat- omng vast masses of black clouda. Shortly uliter 11 o'clock the eoffccts of the preceding storm were made wauifest 1o the vast incronso of water flowing down the chanuol coustructed along the live of Buel and Spring strecty, By tme flood, though great excitement was created, but little damare was done. Some houses in the more exponed lncalities had their first floors floodoed aud much faruiture injured ; sud somo .of tho smaller budges and o few out-houses ware cairiod away. This was bat the precursor of tho terriblo visitation of & fow bowss lawor. Again the falling wind, the balmy air, the growing ghopsoes of blue sky bold up to us the dolusivo phantom of hopo; and still gloomy sud threatening, as a pramouitory fato, bovored the hoavy clouds over tho soutnwestern pealis. About 1 o'clock the rain commenced, and this timo with redoublsd foreo. Hard aud fast tho rain poured down, minglod with hail, Tho black clouds closed down aion us, tho lightning graw, veaver and fiorcor, and ealeulations closcly mndo proved a poriod of abont one and a half soconds boeweon Lho floeh and the followipg thunder- bole, (Lhis established an olovationof less than 1,600 face, and our surrounding mountaiu-peaks are at loost 3,000 feot above our lavel.) A few minuten before 2 P m, two horsealen camo gal- loping down Main, Spring, aud Bucl streels, warning the stactlod pooplo of tbe APPROACH OF THE MIGHTY FLOOD. Moat thought only of their lives, and saved themselves rogardless of tholr effocts, Othors stood stupofied at the throat of an approachiag, undotined daoger. oo many clung too lute to their houdes in & vmn ondeavor o save tholr property by removal to highor ground, Closo upon the heels of tho warning horse- men followed the torrent. Aud such a torrent! Over tho entire ridge extouding from Pinto to Iuby Hill the masstve clonds hud broken. To- ward the rammit there wus uoram, but a deluge, down Railroad, Eurcka, New York and Guodwin Canons flowed tho water at an almost incon- ooivable rate of speed, gailovug Btrongth and florconues in the descent, From tho Richwond to tho Jackwon furnace, where theso canyons unite, and where our vailoy approaches a quarter of a mils in width, the entire ground was covor- od by & totriblo soothiug muss of wators at leass 8 foet in height, bearing heavy timbors, the wrocks of cabiuy, and evon masges of rock, in its angry, beadlong carcor upon our devoted town, As tho valloy narrows toward the centre of the town tho curront increased in florconess aud power. The entiro town was aroused. Great and certain dostruction of proporty was evident, and wanfuly did most of our cltizens struggls to save what could bo saved. Dut oven up to thia moment none imagined the fearful loss of prop erty and of bhuman lifo which followed. For over Lalf an hour the water rolled on. Oune house after another toppled sud foll, and tho anpry billows beat upon the wreck aud dashed it to picces. Many housed (some of thiem dwelling houses and with families insiac) wore lifted bodily up and ourried down the unghty stream, The sight was NAGNIFICENT IN IT8 TEWROR. ° Tha Buroks iall, & building 100 by 25 feot, was enrly carzfed uway, and added to the horror of the sceno as it camo crashing down along Spring street and through to Buel strect, in rear of the Intornational Ilotel, carrying away with its massive weight many buildings already tottor- ing.
