THE LOUISVILLE CLUD AND PLAYERS. Special Correspondence of The Tribune. LouisviLLE, Nov. 3.—As a rumor is now cir- colating to the effiect that Louisville will not be .zepresented in the professional base-ball .arena .during the season of 1877, 1 havetaken the pains - to inquire into its trath on behalf of Tae TRIB- usE. Before proceeding to relate anything of next year's nine it may be well to look retrospective- ly upon that of 1876. Louisville subscribea - §20,000in stock toher Club. Of this onty one-half was collected, a hundred persons paying ap .their stock in full; the others, not doing so of .their own free will, werc not compelled to pay by the Direstors, the latter deeming 210,000 suficient with gate receipts to operate the Club.. Grounds were leased and laid off by engineers, sod being _placed upoo the Jot selocted to olay upon. The Tecessary seating arrangements had to- be pro- ~vided, and when these things and the salaries from Nov. 15, 1675, to April 15, 1576, had been -paid, the amount in the treasury was, as a play- -er remarked, “dem little, I assure you.” Thus having decidedly a lean purse before play began, the .Louisvides hailed the coming of the Chicagos with a great display of delight. The attendance at the opening contests was 1arze and paid well. The Louisville nine then consisted of Snyder, Devlin, Carbine, Somer- ville, Fulmer, Gerbardt, Chapman,:Hastings, =nd Bechtel. The tirst game was-won by Chi- cago 4 1o+ 0, the sccond also by 10 to 0. Lent being over, 'the Kentucky folks could relish the eggs presented them, and began to «all their Club afailure. Then matters changed, -and Carbine alone -was -the failure. He was ousted, Gerhardt going tofirst from - third, Hague taking bis place there. Victories over St. Louis and Cincinrati elevated the spirits of the peopie regarding their nine, and,.had the Club worked Lrom tuis time on as it should haye Goze, zli would Lave been well. -As it was, the 11:! yers seemed not to work well together, and t Laif-a-<dozen games fairdy theirs bt for ex- Ule aunilingia. the nioth inping. -An idea emed 1o session of the people here layers, certain of their money because ULy vackers of the Club,. were not do- iug their best to win.

So lar - as concerns the lat- ter, the Dircctors bave alwavs had the -fullust contidence in Chapman, .and . the success oL the Club was not attributed . by them Lulum. Bechtel was dismissed, and Allison put i right ficid. This had u good effect for awhile, but pour playing torzetber of all the men again demonsirated 1hai- something was radicatly wroug. * Disdpline it is this time,” _thought tac Directors, and Devlin succeeded Fulmer as Capiain.

All of these things operated so much againgt the Club that the at- tendunce after August on the home- pgrounds -was mever first class. -More than «xpenses were paid until the Club went East. the second. time. Boston. alone.gave decent receipts, Hartfords' amount, as usual, being very ictle, the Mutuals’ tolerable, and Athletics’ comparatively nothing. But for amateur re- ceipts this tripwould have been most disastrous. ‘The Mutuals Look away $1.000 from four games hiere;. Louisville got abont from games tiere. The Athletics %«n little here, and lie- wise.the Louisvilles in Philadelphia. - It was-an cven thing with Boston, and Hartford, of course, recvived three or four times as much-as given. For the causes related above Loulsvilie at the, cluge of the season found o deficit.of $3,000 in lier treasury.” Bankruptey was not to beresorted t0, and as tothe best manner of. getting. free: {from trouble no one could determine satisfacto- rily. = A mecting of stockholders tuok place sev- ezal days ago. . After.a long discussion they resolved to contribute among themselves-sufti- cient money to pay off the Club’s indebtedness,, also to orce delinquent stockholders to pay up: The first policy resulted in raising $1,200. The second has not been pushed to any extent. 1f the present stockholders choose to suc those who fail to make good the.amounts- subscribed by them, $10,000 can be raised, and good legal atthoritles say those. who failed to pay up stock subscribed can be made so todo. The players are all here now. Devlin, Fulmer. and. Sonjerville, it is said, are very much dissatisfied and disposed 10 kick, though the good .this “will do amounts to nothing. 'Fulmer was given his re- lease in midsummer to go Wwith.the Athletics. ‘Their tailure gave him a desire to stay licre, but the Dircctors would not definitely promise to again receive him. From- then until -the close of the year Fulmer played . brilliantly, better by far than ever before, and now that-he sees, or thinks, that all his Jabor has becn in vain, the Inct that he is dissatisfied occasions no “surprise in Louisville. Somerville has less reason tobe a kicker than any one elsc. Had the Directors doue right they would have kicked him into right field ormade him punch tickets at: the gate wmonths ago. Devlin did - his duty.. He played well the year through. His chief faults are his temper aud his undue pride. The Jatter has come of too much Pralse mn the papers and among the “admirers* of the game. 1 saw Derlin Jast nizht on his way to Cincin- nati, and jn our conversation we_spoke of the present trouble. Iasked him: ¢ it doyou men bave to say of the present tronble?” “We have not: received our money for two months,” said Devlin; ¢ the :Directors -are all out of the city, and 50 far as next year's Club is concerned, 1 can’t say what they intend to do.” Do you e to remain hérel” “ No, not if I can get away. I want no more of this; I have had enough.™ * How much js due you?” ¢ They owe'me up to Nov. 1 just $200; on the 15th §250 more will be due ' for .next year, and where or when I am to get it I don’t know.” “ How much is due all the players, Jim!" *Threetbousand about. Yes,'T guess it will take this much to meet us players. I wanted 1o get home to see the show, (Centennial), but 1 can’t walk fast enough to get there now, and see no other way to go.” “ How do you and the others feel about their money; it is good, SWt it§? “Idon’t know. Ishould like to have it, and tken 1 would know as kow it was safe. Some of the boys thinks it good, but I'know they all would like to have it, as they need funds.”” * Cwyougetarelesets ~ »X 0 nim it 1 dont know. I telegraphed faying 1 csn't get wy money, and asked - Lain't entitled taa release. -Scon as:I :hear from him will let yon dmow. .1 like THE' UNE, and want my friends up ‘in Chicago to know of how. I get along." +*How about §t. Louis next year, Jim?” “Tuey want me; will give §3,000—one-third down,—but I can't.get away frowm bere.” :- What do vou purpose doing, then?” * Well, they’re going to run a clieap nine here next year. Iwant to get.away, and must go up 10 scc Mr. Keck at Cincinnati to-night. I'm go- dog with him, incase 1 get away. That's all ve got to gay. :Good-pight:? * B Chapman and1 conversed over-the Club’s af- - |~4sirs ~forhalt-an=hour. = “He ssserts. positively. that every cent-will be paid the men, having the word of " the:"Directors_to -that effect. The Board consists of A. V. Du Pont, Thomas H. Sherley, ‘and ~C. E. Chase, -all substantisl citizens, who will not permit themen 1o-lose-their ‘money. Chapman attributes the deficiency, tobad, luck on the Eastern trip last made, and also to the poor attendance dur_mE the last games played. He does mot think the men . played up to their-lovel best at:oll - times;*but, considering all things—by which the initial scason; difficulty -of .cctiing e‘ogd men to come to Louisville, tie strength of Chicago and St. Louis to contend with in the first games,and . the bad lnck -whieh-hung .over:the ninc.from “first, to Jast, dre included—the team has dune tolerably well. :The “dissatisfied men arc only a small part of the nine, and two of them are not particalarly .desired next season. :The other has offers from elsewhere larger than' Louisville will give him, and_having .been reiused a release s disposed to kick. Chapman says next year's minc will be better in cvery respect. Al but . twomen’. have -becn engaged; these are a first-baseman and \flddcr-Exwmr. It s very likely that voung Nichols, who played with the Mutuals, will succeed Fulmer as short-stop. The ninc of 1877, 50 far as is now made up, will be:as follows: Snyder, c. ichols, . . i . an, ). 1. =g Dy u:‘l‘;). Uglbcrt. C 1. Gerhardt, 2b Cliuton, r. f. Hagae, 3b. , toand e pe Chapman ' constders the preceding - players,: with the two in prospect, . of. greater strength than the ninc of 776, In regard to Devlin, he affirms his intention to hold bim herc. James has signed, he says, and shall not now bg re- leased under any circumstances whatever, even zhou%hin should .be necessary to play him on first base, or In the field, or.mot at.all.” In- say- ing this, Chapman states that he does 5o nI‘mn the oft-repeated assertion to that eifect of Mr. - Sheriey and others of the Dircctory. Concern- ingthedeficit, Chapman attributed it to-the causes , previously .mentioned, and also in‘a measure to the licavy-loss- sustained in early spring by the blowing away of the sheds. on the grounds. The money due players will probahl{ be paid before ' Nov. 10. “The ‘Directors’ will then set .about looking after next year's nine. ‘They are fully resolved upon having 2 tub in the Leaguc, and'are of the Gpiniou thal it can be - operated cheaper than in the past season. Within the next ten days their plans will have no doubt - been 50 matured as to give 'a -définite under- standing of their intentions for *77. Until then, nothing more than has been related can be-said. EJF.M. THE OLD STYLE OF AVERAGES. A correspondent -writes to sny that he has looked- over - the list -of battinT averages published in 'Tne TrisuxEe, and, while he has no doubt that it is accarate, it fails to give bim the basis of a comparison between the same players for two- successive yea! “For in- stanee,” says he, “I wouldlike to know whether several of -the men have improyed since last year, or whether they - have fullen off, and the only record I have of last year is in the shape of Tne ‘TRIBUNE’s list, which guve only the average of base-hits toa game. cannot com- -pare that with the table you published last Sun- day, and ‘I therefore n:spcx:tlull{‘ ask you' to give un-old-fashioned Hist-where the average of -base-hits to 2 game shows. ‘I am sure it would oblige many persons, who, like mysclf, can hardly-keep up'with the improvements of scor- ing tlie game.” “The writer of the above:has glimmerings of sonsein his roqnes& and the rable asked for has been made up and 18 submitted below: = & :5' 21528 FAREES o 3lz|st 2 Xame and Clud.

It will be found, on comparing the above table with the onc "based on ‘ times at bat,” that the order of merit.is nearly the samein both, -Hall being about the only person who drops very much, and he only goes down from second to fifth. On'comparing this table with one of the same kind made at the close of last season, it appears that Anson, Hincs, and Peters. bave improved their batting wonderfully, while many players then away.up have fallen down below the half. Craver,’ ior instance,” has . gone from cighth down to thirty-seveath; Force, from ninth to twenty-cighth; Sutton; from sixth to eight- ecnth; Leonard, Irom fifth to sixteenth; and others in the same way. MERITS OF PITCHERS. The question .as to who has been . the best pitcher .for the past year depends, of course, upon the runs earned off the pitching, as well as upon the fic{dmgfilnnd'bculll:(ng nli;!ifiues of the men- occupying ¢ position. Primarily, the best pitcher:is the man who .allows the sn{anesz gropomun of runs to be carned off his delivery. ‘0 .ascertain this point in the record THE TrIBUNE has caused the scores of the vear to be gone over, aud the result to be tabuiated. It is sorry to sav that the result varies from ab- solute correctuess: in an indnitesimal degreo as to several of the. men, for the reason that tele- graphic corres) 0ts huve sometimes failedto Tuclude earned ruus in their dispatches. .The table :given below. :will, however, -very. approximate the -exact {igures, will” . .at no time be :far.

Backed as he will be next year, he ought to allow only a very small number of ruus tobe e:u?cd his delivery. Of the players nanicd,i McVey has tho best batting and ~ficlding record, "with ‘Devlin nest in batting, ana Spaldine in fielding. The Clz;:{m, in closing an article on straight and curved pitchers, has the following: Spalding—a straight pitcher—was enabled to achicve a success for his_club which Bradley—who seems to combine the abilities of both classes of | itchers to a certain _cxtent—was unable to do for 'EI! clnb: and certainly “McBride would' have taken the Athlctics through the season more suceessfally than any of their curved-line experimental pitchers: .were enabled to do. Tho Bostonsfound the curved- line experiment a pretty costly:one, and it is ques- .tionable wheihicr another. season's trial of. it will Dbe of advantage to them to the point expectad. - St. Louis may pgain rely.upon it in1877. In fact, the' |- faror for carved-line pitchers appears to be just at - its height, the semi-professional ‘clubs having the fever badly. Club managers wonld do well to re- member that s curved-line pitcher who has not. thorough command of t (m’f will Jose more gamea in the Jong run than ‘V 11l win, . Also that such.a pitcher requires 4 more than ordinarily skillfut and active catehier, if not two. or three of -them, for Tew can tand the pressure of even holf a season’s support of a curved-line. pacer who has little if any command of the ball. "Of course, experience: at the batwillin time - offset the - advantages the |- «field side derive from the curved-line delivery, and then they will have to fall back on the strategic -skill of the straight. pitcher. - Given equal support in the ficld, and equal training skill and harmoni- ana work, ive woald sgone rely upon Spaldinzand pitcliers of his ability than upon. the best curved- line pitchers in the fraternity. The former tells the better in the long run. CINCINNATI PERSONALS. ‘The Cincinuati Enquirer disposes of the sea- son fu its city in a column, from which the fol- lowing extracts are taken: The Red Stockings of 1876 are no more, - Mr. Keck called the boys around him last Monday morning in the'oflice of higpork-bouse, gave them come: faiherly advice, O_Fp;% ther with' his blessing, ‘paid them every:cent of thicir salaries that was still owing, and disbanded - the' club. * The' boys nnite in an carnest testimonial of -respect- for Nir. Keck und his treatment of them. Everything that was honorable and mice he did for- them, and treated | them more Jike hig {:rfl’z{lfl_ than his ** ired men,™ Their salaries have bean paid regularly, promptly, and fally. All these things coming from Mr. Keck auring a scason of discouragement will be stances. > Instead. of secking players, :some of the best players in the League are .sceking- engagements with the Cincinnati Club. Denny Mack onlya weels or w0 -ago sought an engagement- as first baecman at a salary of 31,700, Itis hardly neces- sary to say that he didn't get it. Nolan also.gave the manaZement to understand that he could be had us change pitcher’ and_right-fielder, but for eome- reaxon the -management do - not think he is the man for_the place. 1n this:most of the base- bull. fraternity will take issue. George Hull has been talked .of, butas Chase, of the Louisvilles, Das gone: East after him, the Cincinnatians have probably lost him, r The St. Louis Club noyw see their folly in letting Plke, their hcsLFInrcr. go, and they offer him big money if he will gethis release from the Cincin- natis. To eatlsfy the St. Louis management, he came over week Defore last and -put in his applica- tion, which, ‘of conrse, ‘was' refused by-Mr. Keck, Mr. Pike is-not anxious to get it, and will play in Cincinnati next year. T N There issome talk by.the Cincinnati manage- ‘ment of remaining ‘out of every combination next Year, and fighting -ivont -on_jndependent prizcl- les, justas theold Red Stocking nine of 1880 did. l‘s 1s' thought by some - tngt” there would be more moncy in such a course, and just as muchglory to e wonby it. i : RELICS. i Certain ball-players in'Boston Hartford, having contrived rulesto shut.out fair fouls.and bound catches on fouls, tried them. ina game one ‘day last week, but “didn’t'see much differ- ence from the old way. - \ ‘The Bostons managed to'defeat the Hartfords in four games out of -five for the New England championship, being . greatly aided:and sbetted therein by Nichols, Tormerly of the New Havens, but later of the Fall Rivers, etc., and engage by St. Louis' for 1877. . "The St. Louis Republican has the +following paragraph: A “The Browns will not disband at present. 'There ‘has been 5o much crookedncees in “Eastern base ball that there is no telling what the. Athletics might not dv if the Jrowns scattered. They. could still come here and claim their unplayed games. “The White Stockings bave disbanded, but a small wager is open that they can’ scratch ? a ninein twenty-four-hours to beat the’Athletics. “There is no end of talk in some of the papers | south of here concerning professional umpires for the League next year; and it is well cnough to state that there 15 not a ghost of a-show that : the League will pass fayoratly upon-the mat~ ter. The managers profess to believe that they 00 | can get their work done cheaper under - the old system,.and they are doubtless rightin the as- sertion. At any rate, not more than two mem- - bers of . the League will.be prepared - to vote for + the idea. - The fact that-the Chicago Club- players ‘led Dbatting: averages so decidedly: this year carries : anguish into many hearts, and-the St. Louis /e~ pullican extracts-un explanation from ' its inner | consciousuess and publishes it as follows: In considering the high batting averages made this year.by.the Chicagos it-must uot be Torgotten that Lheg«nnifnrmly' used a lively nall, - St. Louis played about ten gamnes with a lively ball, and Chi- cauo about forty games. In games pluyed witha lively ball, base hits n\'aragu anywhere from -25 to 100 per cent more than.in games played with a \dead ball. Insix ont of the Eeven games played etween St. Lonis ‘and’ Chicago, in which-a live o211 was used. St. Louis did the heaviest batting, showiag that it could handle alively ball better even than the Chicazos. . A lively ball increascs batting scores and ticlding errors. ‘If St.-Louis ha¢ baited a lively ball forty.games,. and Chicago only ten games, . their : present average would be Teversed. i THE TURF. .TROT AT DEXTER PARK TO-MORROW. -Some-weeks ago four fine roadsters of this aty had a tilt on’ Dexter Park for a stake and purse, .and’ McAsay’s Kitty cerried them . off. ‘The others were by no means satisfled with the result, .and have been bantering for arother race until they have been ' successful, and the contest will take . place over the Dexter Park track to-morrow.

It is now thought that !P::ter Johnson, who has driven Bodine for several scasons, intends to enter the campafzn next season as a Western Charley Green..The gossips say that he will have Badger Girl in the 2322 class: the Joliet stall- ion; Gen. Grant, among the 20 fiyers, and sey- eral green fast ones ior the slower races. If Bodine could be added, this stavle would find Plenty of backers among Chicago sports. From New York - comes ‘the -announcement, that Great Eastern, ono of this-season’s celebri- ties in the trotting world, has been sold’ for ‘The aunouncement of the sale is probably correct, as it has been in contemplation for some time, but it is doubtful if $20,000 was realized for a horse with a 2:10 record and as bad a set of underpinning as the big son of Walkill Chief is afiiicted with. At the close of the frec-for-all race at Fleet- wood Park, Oct. 27, in which ' Smugeler, S, Great Eastern, Judge Fullerton, and Lucille Golddust partieipatcd, Charlic Greea made a few remarks from the il:ld"‘cs’ stand to the effect that hewould ‘match Lucille Golddust against any horse that had taken part in the race to trot six races, each event to be for 3500 or 31,000 a side, two to be trotted eachweekuntil the series was closed, two races to rarness, two to wagon, and two to saddle. "As nobody aceepted the biufl, a race to saddle for $1,000 a side, catch sed by Mr. Eumphrey, owner of Fullerton, and accepted by Green. Freauent inquiries having been made asto the present ownership and whereabouts of the cele- brated trotter, Flora Temple, it will be of gen- cral interest to know that the famous mare -is still living. She wnsflnruhnscd by Mr. Aristides Welch, of Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia, from the Iate William McDonald, of Baitimore County, her former owner, and is now in the possession of that gentleman. ~Since she was purchascd by Mr."Welch sho has foaled thtec colts: A“filly by Rysdyk, now owned by Mr.-A. D..Conger, of Neww York; a colt, Prince Imperial, by Wiltiam ‘Welch, now the property of Mr. Robert Bonner, of NewYork,and a filly by Leamington,owned by Mr. Robert: Steele, of Philadelpiia. ‘None of her Eroduce have ever distinguished themsclves on the turf. It is a remarkable fact that no old mare that has ever trotted a scries of races for a number of years has produced a fast colt, the explanation being given ‘that the vitality that produces fast stock becomes exhausted by such a strain as that to which they arc ‘subjected to on the turf. OTHER. SPORTS. BOGUS PEDESTRIANS. Bertha von Hillern and Mary Marshall, the petticoated frauds, were expected to -have fin- ished 'a walking-match. in New York last even- ing. "The World, of all the papers in the city, makes a sputter over the affair, and deals-ont admiring adjectives for the women, especially von Hillern. ' While perhaps not so fastas Budifigs, ] THE TRIGGER. Greene - Smith, President of the Natfonal Sportsmen’s Association, arrived in “the city Saturday. - His match with Mr. Turrill will take place as soon as the impaticnt voters have ascer- tained who is to hold the oflices -for -the mnext few years. 3 Mg * PIELD.” The Chicago Field, which has-advanced sever- 2] turf theories offensive to -Eastern magnates and maintained them vigorously, - finds, modern English too weak to express itself, -and mounts the following at the head of its’ editoria ool umns: NOTICE TO EASTERN COTEMPORARIES. ** Lay onMacduf, ies, *Hold, enough! 'The Field has certainly improved very greatly within the past year, and clearly leads-all the sporting-papers of the country in-its specialties. -THE RIPLE, - At the regular range meeting of the. Dearborn Ciub, yesterday, Mesars. . Willard:and Roberts made the following scores at * 500,.900,-and 1,000 yards, no s;imng shots: Williard, 60, 74, total, 197.

FOOT-BALL. The Chicago Foot-Ball Club-is still keeping up its practice. The Secretary has been en- deavoring by correspondence to secure the pres-~ ence of some-of the clubs of adjacent cities for a match or exhibition: game, but so far the at- tempt has been futile. ‘The Club will-also ar~ range for meetings of a social nature during the winter. ATHLETIC. - At the Athenmum gymuasium last Wednes- day-evening, under tie management of Prof. Charles Duplegsis, an athletic exhibition was iven, showing commendable agility ana phys- joal strength on the trapeze, parallel bars, and in dumb-bell lifting and in jumping. Some of -the best amateur gympasts of the city “partici- vated, and'a very good audience witnessed the feats with plcasure. e ——— Born at Thirty-five Miles an Hour. Baltimore dmerican. The Western train whichjarrived at Camden Sta- tion over the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad on Satur-- nay afternoon_brought a mother with two babies, ticketed from Indianapolis, Ind., to Crisficld, Md.

"Mr. Harris did o, and;throngh the medium of this third party was informed -of the probable increase 1o the passengers under nis chaige. The car was cleared, and hilf an hour afterward the assengers were informed that two bouncing boys End begun life at the rate of thirty-five milesan hour.
