Special Digpatch to The Tribune. LOGISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 30.—The Bostons won the filth game from the Louisvilles to-day, man- aging by four base hits and eighteen errors of . the home nine to secure a victory. The Louis- +illes batted Bradley so that Manning was sub- stituted. Their fourtcen base hits earned four runs only, and gave them a total of five. The tons grot really four clean hits, but, with the DO s ovrors of the Louisvilles, stored six unearned runs. THE SCORE. Touistille.

St. Louis, Mo., St sU.—rive nundred spec- tators shivered through the nine innings, which were tolerably well Drnved on both sides. Sg¢v- eral of the Harifords played without an error, while Mills con:mitted two and Allison three. St. Lonis also committed but five errors, which were distributed between McGeury, Clapp, Brad- Iy, and Dehlman. Battin, however, gained the day for the dark blues, Firguson and Allison doing yeoman service in that respect, each of thew making a base hit every time he came to the bat, one of Ferguson’s being a double-bag- ger. Clapp, McGeary, and Mack got in singles for St, Louis, while Cuthibert had four beauties laced to his credit, with a total of five. Not one of the five tallies made during the game was carped, McGuary getting his run on an overthrow by _Allison to catch him on second, and Remsen, Ferguson, York, and Allison get- ting theirs on bad errors by McGeary, Dehlman, Bradley, and Clapp. The’ outfielding on both sides was superb, York, Remsen, Cuthbert, and Cassidy especially distinguishing themselves by brilliant running_catches, one from Burdock’s bet, sccured by Cuthbert after a long run and Tigh jump, wlen two wen were on bascs, being chocred to the echo. Batiin, Burdock, and Mack distinzuished themselves by some beau- tiful stops and throws. Appended is THE SCORE.

Wednesday’s contest having finished the championship games to be played by the Chi- cago Club, it is proper to present the batting record of the players who have taken part in tbe sixty-six games which the club has played for the championship peunant of 1876. The beads over the following table snflicjcufl&‘ show its meaning, and it {s only necessary to add that the names are arranged in the order of merit indicated by the percentage of base-hits to times at bat. The tigures have been saken from scares published in THE TRIBUNE as the games were played. and, since many of them were sent. by telesraph, ther may be found to be omne- what different from the official publication when that is made. The table is as follows: WIHITE STOCKING BATTING AVERAGES.

During the season just over, the Chicago [ Club has _played, as noted, 66 games for the | championship,” In these it has scored 618 runs, or, as near as may be to 9% to a &um&, ‘while the opposing clubs have, in the 60 games re- ferred to, made 259 runs, or a fraction less than 4 to a game, a trifle over a third as many as the champicns. It is curious to mote in this connection that Barnes, the famous run-getter, has scored nearly one run for every two made by the nine men Dln sed to him. In other ‘words, if Barnes could anywhere find a partuer as good as himself, they two_could make ruus enouch to beat any other club jn America. In the matter of runs earned, the Chicagos show 230 1n their gawmes, or un average of 44, as opposed to 110 runs earned by their oppo- nents, an_ave! of lesg than 2. The record shows 928 clean "hits mad¢ by the Chicagos, an average of 14 to a game, which has never been equaled in this country, as far as records zo. The other nines have made §35 hits off Chicazu’s itchers, an average of 9, which will be found arger than that against several other pitchers, but of no account to win games, because of the batting ability which has backed the Chicago pitching. Itisin the item of errors that the combined clubs win from' Chicago, they having made 647 while Chicago was mak- ing 840, or almost two to one in their favor. Itis mot particularly wonderful that batting and flelding like this should win the chiampionship—it would have been more wonder- {ful if it had not. It rematos to add that the Chicagos averaged most runs per game (18) from the Athletivs and Jeast (.'&fmm &t. Louis: most carned runs () from the Athletic and least (2.8) from the Mutual; most base hits to a_game (18) from the Athletics and least (9) from the St. Louis; least grrors to 8 game (4.6) with the Mutuals and most (6.2) with the St. Lonis. - The only club to win a majerity of the ten %amcs in the sories was St. Louis, and even they failed to score a8 many runs or earn as many. The same St. Louis Club was the only one 10 outplay the Chicagos in any point of recorl. They made 97 hits to the Chicagos’ %4, and that, as noted, is the onl)' point of play where there i8 the least chance for cavil. "In” all other re- spects the Chicagos have won casily; and in batting, fielding, discipline, and general effi- ciency have shown themsclves an organization never equaled in this country. It should be added that the play of the nine ‘has never been broken bya word of dissension or dispute, in which particular it has been in glaring contrast with some gangs of uarrelsome bummers which it has met. 'hat this has been the case is due in large measure to Capt. Spalding, who has been this year man- ager as woll s player and captain, and who has signalized bie_cntry into the new branch of the ‘business by winning the pennant with a8 team as- sembled for tac first time in its present condition. It is understood that the Chicago Club have leased the Twenty-third strect grounds for an- other year. The move was 8 wise one in many particulars. For convenience of access and other merits the present location of the club has no cqual in the city, The chief sugzestion that should be otfered to the manugement—and it might a8 well be thouzht of now as later—is that they arrange with the Lake Shore Road to run a train from the Van Buren-~trect depot on as anick time as the ordinances will permit, and timed to leave at the last moment that will allow the pas- sengers to sce the game hegin. 1t would be a great ‘henefit to thase buriness-men who can harniy spare the time to be trandled ouy in the slow strest-cars, 1t is fair to belleve that it would add to the audi- ences. Think it over, Messrs. Manegers, and re- member that we need t6 have immense audicnces at Dexter Park, where it was all steam tranelt. . THE CHOAMPIONSHIP, The past weck has heen fruitful of resnits in the champlonship race, and hae settled more than has any other weok since the season opened. 1t has ‘been coplmla]g anlfully cnough noted in these columns that the first_game between the Chicagos and Hartfords scttied first place, and the second wme gave St. Louis an excellent chance forsecond place. The following table shows how the matier ktands up to lust evening: Qs SRsFEe s FINISSIERIE awuss.

The present week will probably see all but three of these settled. Ae it now stands, 1lartford has a strong lead for sccond piace, pro- vided it finishes all its games. If St. Louis can win its three rematning games it must even then de- pend on, Boston and Lomaville 1o win two from artford to bring abont a tle, or three to ive second luce tothe West, The past does not warcant the licf that this will be done. Tho last three places are settled beyond cavil, and this weei will end the suspense. o ‘WHITE STOCKING ANNOUNCEMEXNTS, The Chicazo Club arrived home yesterday morn- i from two gumex in Wisconsin. ~_The new man who waz ziven a chence behind the bt veems to be an admirable amateur, but hardly up to pro- Zesvional standard, tiough that may be a too hasty Judgment, irasmuch us be had hardly any show to Uentonstrate hie ability. _The feam will leave this ovening for Clinton, Jowa, wlere they play to- morrow, _Thence they go to Marehalitown, the home of a family of Ansons who are, all bail-play- ers, thonga, perhaps, not all s good ones s the glant who wins a game every now snd agin for Chicago. Tue TRIBUNE don't take inuch interest in the Marshalltown Fam ‘but it demands of the 11ine to hand 1t 1o the Clinton Club in memory of the time when the Ac- tives of taat place came down to Chicago and won a game from Capt. Wood's White Stockings by 8 to 5. From Marsbalitown the nine will go to St. Lonis, and will play two games there at dates not absolately fixed, though probably Thursday and Friday. After the two gumes both nines will como to pla .up fo Chicago, stopping a game in Bloomington between = themscives. Two games will - be ployed in this city be tween these clubs some days mext-week, and games will also be plzyed in Milwaukee and In- Five games in all'will fihnngous. one or but prabably be plared of this . The only otticr games this week will be those of the Bostons and Hurtfords in Lousville, Cincinnati, and §t. Lonis. WHAT ABOUT A WESTERN LEAGUE? The most important idea to be canvasscd by the well-wishers of the game during the coming pre- aratory seasun is the old one of the propricty of a {’Vestem Leazue. The four Western clubs have suf- fored so much, for the laet few years, from the atter refusul of the Atlantl New Havens, Athletics, and Mutuals to keep their enzage- ments that it becomes a grave question whetner they should not take some measures to protect themeoives by & union strong_enough to live with- out uny Eastern games ut all If necessary—thougl, of courtc, that does not scein advisuble, except in case of apsolute compulsion. 1t ia mot yet the time to discuss this matter thoroughly, and the suggestion is accordingly made only for ‘the pur- pos¢_of getling a {horough discussion of it by all the best men in the busincss. Itia sulficient o sy that Chicago, St. Louls, Louisville, Cincinnati, Indisnaipolis, Columbus, hio, and Pittsburg, Pa, are all to have ‘ery strong nines next year, and there arc cnerget- fc movements on foot to organize good teams in Cleveiand, V., and Detroit, Mich. Let the matter bo carefully thought'over, keeping in view the idea that we have had encugh Athletic and Mutual de- falcations. At present Tre TRIBUNE is not in favor of any acheme for taking in small citics or weak clubs. THE ATHLETICS' OBITUARY. The Philadeiphia Sunday lercury thus gives up the ghost in as easy 0 manuer as the writer (who is manager of the Club ag well) can find \vm.-d! for: ‘n: members of the Athletlo's ainc during zh’{l}fsfih Ysou LT+ requested to mcet st thiy office 10+ w {Monday) atterzoon, at haif-past3 o'clock pre- aat ssasun the Al winniig fourteen, losinz forty- same ive, Faz a dzowor @ e gume.

The fll Sccess of the Atilecics this season may aiso, ina oss- are, be attributed to the fact of Eggler and Sutton's fil- ness, and the vonseguent changing of positions. THE MUTUAL CLUB ECLIPSE. The St. Louis Jepublican looks at the burst-up of the Mutnals in this wise: . both, this is nukind; Mr. The latest sennation in ball news s that thie Mutuals will ot coine West again. Last weck Manseer Cam- Ty er, of the Mutuals, wrote to Presidcas Hulbert, of the Chicaos, that, on ‘account of straiteiied fuauces. thie prospect of sinall gate re eipts, etc., his club could not come Weet azaln. ° A con 1d Louls, resnitingin €uch clty offering 3100 to e Mutes to make tho trip.

Louls leaten out of second place. The last clause appears entirely uncalled for. There 18 no good reason why Chicaro should object to the West having buth first and eecond place, and in point of fact she has done all she could to bring itabout. GENERAL NOTES. 1tis pmbnble that Clapp will manage the St. Louis Clab. McGeary hasbeen re-engaged by the St. Louls management. ‘The Philudelphia Mercury, organ of the defanct Athletics, takes up its baee-ball space In abusing the Lonlsvilles, and calling their President, Alr.

The Chicago +the lust inning. A nnrrnl‘:unde_nt desires to kmow if the Chicagos ‘were not champions in 1870. The question W answered by the Clipper this week as follows: “*The Chicago Club have never held the champion- ehip. There was no official champlonship pennant to win until 1871, and then the Athletics won it. .Since then the Bostons have beld it.™ To which it is fair to add that Harry Wright's Cincinnatis were, virtually champions of"1870. ym P.

The most extraordinary claim of the geason is that made to the championship of the West by the St. Louis Club's friends. The Clipper, which may be said to be a tolerably disinterested authority in a case of that kind (slnce it utterly detests every- thing not of New York), thua decides the qnes- tion: **The question ix mot one of club ys. club, Dbut as between the four Western clubsin their League-pennant contests together; snd the record of these gumes shows that the Chicazo Club has won the champlonship by winning the most games and having the fewest defents. ~ Botu' should bo governed by this view of the question, un'esa they Were made on the success of one club agsinst the other 1n their games together.” w The crop of Jim White items 1s protty Zair this week: witness the following: And now it ia definitely stated by a St. Louis paper thit White, of the Chicagos, will play in Boston ngxt yesr. ned hardly be added tbat the statemedt i3 neither new nor trite.—Bos‘on Gloke.

Now it I« onr turn, and we are going to propose some- thing so atrocious that you will_have to keep your eyes well geeled to catchit.

When he left he was slightly pot-bellied, and his base-ball escapade is evident{y for exercise. When Tng Tr1oose firet announced the removal of the Hartford nine to Brooklyn for 1877, the busiest people in_the world were the Hartford re- porters in denying the assertion. ‘The Mutmal Club's failare was fairly to be altributed to 2 bar- rain made by Bulkley to lease the Union Grounds for the new club, and_mnow, to add proof, comes the Clipper, alwiys the organ of the movement, with the following announcement, which may fair- 1y be said to be ofictal: We have good news for Brogklyn at last, and ft 18 to the effect that the New York Mutuals are'to be repinced by the Braoklyn Atlanties in 1877, and under a mannge- ment yiat should insure its being a tharoughly ralial organization, and with & nine that will render i formidable rlval for champlonship honors for any col petitor it may find in the Loagas_arena.

THE TURF. PROSPECT OF A RACE OR TWO. Ever since the rcturn of the Count Boyle from the East he has ‘been trying to arrange some trotting for some time in October at Dex- ter Park, and Mr. Mansur has been willing to doall hecould to encourage the project. A vast amount of telegraphing has been done, and at last a gratifying result rcached. As now proposed, the ruces will take place the third week in October, and, if we can be favored with good weather, a couple of days’ excellent sport will result. The first contest will be between Gov. Sprague, now so celebrated, Blackwood, Jr., and the notable fiyer Rarus, who has been so successful this year. A mestago was also received by Mr. Boyle yos- terday to the effect that Budd Doble, on his way to California with Goldsmith Maid, would be hero about the same time s proposcd for the other horees. 1f arrancements can be made, as there 18 very little doubt that they can, a race will be made Detween the Maid and Bodine. Elther one of_these events would-be something to be thankful for,—both would bea credit to Messra. Mansuz & Boyle. THE GREAT FOUR-MILE RACE. The most prominent event of the week, and, in- decd, of the entire racing season. has' been the great achievement of Mr. Harper's Ten Broeck in Funning four mwiles in 7:15%.

It is announced that the fleet of the Chicago Yacht Club will take a cruise to South Chicago- to-day, and return as the wind will allow, or the seamenship dictate. In mentioning z‘ne cruise, the Post takes & new chute on the ques- tion of Sunday sports, which is not altozether out of place. It looks at the matter as follows: Why Sundr_{ should be chosen for such a con- vivial gathering is a question which has arisen with force in the minds of the club's many friends and admirers. It surely cannot be because the members cannot afford to give a_week-day to such amusement, /for, if £0, they sureiy are too poverty- stricken to warrant their indulgence in yachting to any extent. Although the members themselves may_have no particular_ religious convictions on his breaking of the Sabbath, yet they should re- spect the feelings of their many friends and su| orters, who are: tinctured with some relizions ecling. This flageant violation of the best society customs, laying aside all religious reasons, tends to degrade not merely the sport itself, but those who indnlge in' it, and so ‘ long as the Chicazo Yacht Clab, or any other club, so spits in the face of public sentiment and ‘so over- rides the moral conyictions of tho Letter classes-of the community, 5o long will it needs look for sup- port and encouragement only among those who ractice riotons ll\'in)iund breaking down of moral aw. Whatever may be the personal vicws of the individual members of this club, they ehould show some respect for others interested in this harmless Agm't, and for the public which protects them in thelr rights and encourages them in their enter: rise. 1,'S\lch violations of public sentiment will mrel{ cause the public to taboo the club cruises from ail respect, and instead of occapying the position of influence and homor which its members have so iong held, they will quickly fallto the low rank characterized as Sunday bnmmers.

PARIS. THE SCARLET RAGE. Spectal Correspondence of The Tribune. PARIs, Sept. 16.—Although the art of dress is almost purely French, it is erroneous to believe that fashion here holdsindependent sway. Many vagaries that go forth 2s Parisian models loom up here accidentally or experimentally, and are discarded in a day. The furore for red which I informed you last spring had broken out like .an epidemic in France, in honor of the colors of the victor at the Grand Prix, has been trailing its flaming course ever since as a Parisian fashion. Aslight touch of eccentricity on certain occa- sions may be becoming, but becomes odious if continued. The rich car- dinal is truly approonmate at this season, when judiciously used, and forms hand- gome trimming on many el t toflettes, but its gaudy contrast with blue, which continues among a certan class, is repulsive to true Pari- sian taste. Belts, flowers, and bows of glaring red are inaiscriminately worn, and the latter are even tied in ear-rings by those who desire to produce effect, but who are unable to_ diserimi- nate between good and bad. This style has at- tacked the lower classes with singular ferocity, and in_a manner which will soon confine it ex- clusively to the company of common laces and ;awdry fincry. There 18 also a spasmodic desire or s RED OPERA-CLOAKS, on account of the aduiration excited by the beautiful Mlle. Prelly in her character of Meph- istopheles in ‘‘Le Petit Faust,” at the Folies Dramatique. Her costume of brilliant scarlet, with jts black velvet mantle, lined with red, was Gharming, but it will soon_be discovered that red opera-cloaks do not produce the same haJ)‘py effect, and will be discarded for the beautiful white, rose, blue, and creme, with their rich em- broidery and heavy tasseled fringe. Among noveltics worthy of notice are the EXQUISITELY ZMBROIDERED BANDS which are now extensively used for trimming the new fall dresses. These are bias, and can be arranged according to fancy. A toilette of dark blue cashmere i3 very beautiful trimmed with bands of white, embroidered with two shades of lighter blue. The bands are prettily disposed on the front of the siirt by crossing, and in passing around the back they easily form the ornaments for the pocket. - The same bands are on a straight paletot., also in the middle of the back and the length of the sleeves. An evening_toilette of Marie Lonise blue faille is trimmed with white satin bands, embrofdered in bouquets of pink roses and buds, which is one of the most charming dresses I have scen. In visiting the galleries of Petit-Saint-Thomas one is charmed by the fantasics that are pre- ured for fall, and pleased with the good taste isplayed on every hand, Dress materisls are of quict colors, but of such beautiful tints that we will not regret the pretty plaids and brilliant damasses of last year, and much less as these ain appear with new attractions in the novelty of their combinations of colors. An effort hus been made to imitate the magnificent gold lace of Travancore, which is as fine and light as the point de Venice, but the result is a tawdry trim ming which masufacturers are endeavoriog to impose upon the credulous. Visitors to the ex- hibftion of the PRESENTS OF THE PRINCE OF WALES, from the sovereigus who guvern the different States of India in'tbe name of Queen Victoria, can gce this marvelous “lace. They will also have their envy aroused by gold and stlver em- broidered muslins, all dazzling in the light, and so aerial that a breath would seem to “trunsfer them into vapor. Thearms in the gallery of the Prince are also m: cont, and fair ladies, who carry thefr dangling hardware by their sides, are amazed at the extraordinary delicacy and artistic conceptions which far excel any- thing thoy havo cver seen before. Many Parl jan ladics have visited this exhibition, and some have cast aside their clumsy leather belts which they say would not be tolerated in any portion of 8 horse's harness in Mysore. A rife of Ram- pore, ornamented with gold and sparkling -with'six large stars of diamonds, i3 also an ob- {‘ent of interest amidst the numerous jewel-stud- arm. The Duchess of Madrid has arrived {from Pau and will occupy the old hotel of Queen Christine at Passy. This is an elegant home, with its pavilions and vast vestibules, halls, and recep- tion-rooms, but nothing cxceeds the boudoir finished in moresque, with its marble baths and v hangings embroldered in fleur-de-lis. Don &]u will join his family there in a few days. M. VIZENTINI has published his_progamme of the Theatre- l Lyrique for 1876-77-18. The orchestra is com- { posed of seventy-five musicans, the ballet of fifty dancers, snd the chorus of elghty volces. Amon%‘:he artists are Mme. Marie Saase, Mlle, Cecile Ritter, and Capoul. Notwithstanding M. Vizentinl’s brilliant promises, the |overture to & Oberon " was played amidst noisc and con- fusion, and the rengpemncn of Michot on a French stage causcd bursts of applause. This displeased the orchestra, who protested against this ovation by hisses. ** A bas la Commune,” cried a voice from below.
