H. W. Canrznten, Secretary. H Bt. Saxpensos, Proaldoat, ——— BASE-BALL, ‘THE WITTE BTOOKING-PHILADELPIIA GAME, Much comment was provokod by tho reault of Thursday's bave-ball game, and especially by the errors which lost the game for the White Stock- ings, a3 well as thoze which ought to have lost it for the Philadelphias, S80 strong was the im- pression of good judgea of the game that some- thing was out of tune, that an investigation was had yosterday by those interosted, to ascertain whothor thera were any grounds for suspicion of foul play. That investigation baa developed somo peculiar thoories which may be briefly nar- rated as follows: Aftor the first game betweon the Whites and tho Philadelphina, it is assorted that a parcel uf bunko meu, low gatblers, and gencral dis- reputables road up a nool to secure the reault of Thursday's game. Thoy raiaed, it is anid, a aur variously estimated at from €300 to £500, and oponed egotistions with a player occupving & responsible position in tho Pbiladelphias’ field. The gang, it is claimed, woro successful in buying their man, and woot at once to work to make the mos of their purchase, Thoy bonght all the pools they could on the Chi- cagos, at any and every rate, and were free with offers of all sorts of odds that the Whites would win, putting up freely and confidently. When tho pines made their appear- ancaon the ground, the members of the pool wero aul! auxioun to bot, aud wagered considora- ble sums after tie game began. Their purchaso looked promising, aud tho wan whom they lad bought performed his abaro of the work to tho best of his ability, making all the wild throws pamsbles and mulllog overything that came to im, Bus there was a hitch in the proceedings. One of the Chicagos learuod of the transaction, and, it te sald, demanded to be latin. Ilo was 10- fuxed admittance to the ring, aud he at onco held acousultation with bis frienda and with other players of the Chicago nine, and they «de- termined'to lose the gama for Chicago,—and they did it in leas than two minutos. How much they made is uot known—porliaps thoy mado nothing, but were aniinated soluly by a spirit of revenge. 1t makes no difference sbout that either way, ‘There 1s a morsl to this story, and it Is not very long olther, It is in tho form of advice to tho pnbhio like this : If you attend the game to-day, watch it caro- fully, aud if you sce any player make five errors on onay throws, demand that bo bo removed, and If that is not permitted, watic poole. on the fletd and stop the game ‘There has been just enongh of this suspicions business in base ball in Chicago, aud it would be bottor for the game if the crowd would tear down the fonce and standa rather than over suffor another player to be boaght or aold on Chicago ground.

WILLIAM WRAY, Trial of That Eminent Citizen for Burglary. Singular Tostimony in Bohalf of the De« fense, How Some Men Shoved Off Those Things on William. The care of the notorious burglar, William Wray, was called in tho Criminal Court yeatere day morning.

The panol was about oqualls di- vided between thono summoned on tho “reg. ular" and “apecial venire, and thelr oxaminas tion as to thelr competency was full of in. terest. Among tho “ regulars” were somo who were reputable aud intelligent, but such: waa not tho averave charactor. Among tho “specials ” who, aa ‘Tne Tarpuxz intimated sovera! dave ago, bod been welectod to try the care in quer- tion were a sorry lot. eral waid that they wero upon the jury at thei pereonal solicitation, while tho others, wis une or two exceptions, wera of tho lowest posable type, Soveral wero rocugnized ag the trends and abettors of thisvea by all posted in crovinal watters, while the most of tho otuers woro notably without cccupation or visi- blo moaus of support. Out of tba miscellaneous masy, however, twelve men wero finally found acceptable to the counsel on either eido, and tho caue was opencd. Ry CARR.

From the nature of the evi- dence and the dual-character of the case uo one expected that a verdict would be reached upoodily, The expectation proved correct, At 8 o'clock no eonelusion been reach ed, aud the Judge, who was presont, decided that unless vordict was given by 16 o'’clouk the jury would remain ty its room all night. At 10 o'clock no conclusion had been ar rived at, aud the probabilities were that nono would be. The division was undoratood to be, notupon the crinunality of the prisoner, but upon the natnro of his crime aud the extent of the punishment, Some were iu favor of convic- tion on the indictment, while others thought the charge of larceny would excuse him. .
