ANOTITER CINCINNATI PITCHER SMASNED, The Chteago Club are through with Mitchell for the year, and the players are ready to give hima testimontal to the effect that be is the easfest pitcher in the country to hit, In four games (one ouly »x Inuings fong) they have nade fifty-seven hits off him,—an average of over fourteen to a game, and much better than they have been able to dowithany other pitcher. ‘The truth appears to be that Mitehell fs effect- ive onlygwhen well supported, Tle was a good one when fu the Springfield, 0., Club, amt well backed up by the kind of players he had around him; but be is wradually dropping from that standard to the level of the Cinclnnatis, and in nshort time {a fikely to lie as useless as they are. [twasagreat mistake of the managers that they afd not hire the whole Springticld nine when they did Mitchell, Then they would "have had some men who micht have daveloped Into ball-playors. That s past hop- Ing for with their present lot, The falling-uft of Mitchell Is shown in fignres even plalner than in words., When he first camo out, and beforo the Cinelnnati languor stole over him, . hie played ngainat the Loutavilles in four games, and they mada anly twenty-four hite (six to o gane) off him. Then he met the 8t. Louls, and they got seven hits to a game. Then he fell up agalnst the Whites, ami ticy made four- teen hits to o gome. Now, if the Bostons get hold of him they are likely to make forty-four hits atralght away. The enervating fnlluence of Cineinnati eir {s really oxtraosdinary : atnong the pitchers who hove gone thero With good reputations, and left without any reputation at all,may be named Fisher, Willlams, Deun, Mathews, and Cummings. Even Mannimg hasn’t boen able to pitch since he struek Cincin- natl. But all this has no speclal connection with sesterday’s game, which was ono of tho best displays made by the' Whites this year, and n rreat {murm‘umum on tho stipshod panes with loston. In the first inning MeVey hit well to centre, was advaneed by Anson, and scored on Mauning’s bad: returnof Peters’ fly, In the second Inniug, after two bands were out, Booth nmfTed o short 1y which was really Mitchell'’s, und this led the way for basc-bits by Harncs and McVey, which Jot (it two runs. ‘Two more wero gained off a fumble by Pike, and the score stood at five Inatead of zero, as it should, In the third inoing, Bpalding led off with a three-baser; and Eggler et him in with o sfugle, The latter reached home an Barnes' two-baser, both runs belng eamed. Addy started the troublo fn tho fourth ning by mulling Aunson's high fly, und letting the striker get to second. After Peters had made o sacrifice hit, Hiovs and Spaldivg followed each ather with . three-basers, the Iatter tallylng on Eegter's out, This hroluihl the score to 10, and the tirst whitowash of the stde followed. In the sixth lnnln,z Spalding worked all the way around on s single boser, alded by Vanning's wild throw. In the lost Inning” Frgler wos badly muifed by Boothand Rels, and McVey followed with clean hits, two runs coming in and fetching the score up to 13 to end with, ‘There sn’t much listory or descrintion for the batting of tho other side. The only Item that counted was a tromendous sky-seraper by Pike, which scaled the west fencefand guve an easy hume-run, Therest of the hittlne was weak nm{ came in ot the wrong time. The gama was a eredit to younz Rels, who showed himeel an eccellent pitchier, Not a little credit ts due, hiowever, to tho Huesupport iven the pitching, Aside from a ball mufted by Barnes because it was 100 casy, there were no errors outside the pitehing and catching.

TRANSPORTATION PRONLEMS, The meeting of rallroad managers to b held in New York to-morrow will bea highly Imyportant one, as upon its result will depend. the further continuance of the New York nool. While this. pool Las hoen ndvantageous to the trunk lines as far as hicreased reculpta nre concerned, thera have been encountered, so far, numberless obstacles which will bave to be re. moved it the combination shall proie a per- mnnent suceess. The groutest difllenlty grows out of the scheme for apportioning the west- bound freight between the different lines con- necting with the trunk roads. The Weatern roads ure almost unanimously opposed to Mr. Fink's plun of dividing tha business proportion- ately, us there is o number of ‘shippers who pre- fer o ship over certain routes, and do not like to he compelled to send their gooda over roads designated by the puol comtmissioners. Noveral meetings between the .\lnnmtv‘crs and Geneml Freizht Acgenta of the trunk lines and their Western councetions have been held sinco the formation of the poal fn urder to bring about n ratlsfactory armugement, and, st a ineeting held In this city sowe weeks oo, committecs were appointed to work out o plan which would prove satlafuctory to all concerned, Nothing Lus yet been heard from theso comitiees, and it is'understood that they havo so fur been un- able to come to au understanding, nl that they are ahout to give up the job us hopeless. It 3 not yet known whether the question will bo taken 'fl' tor discusslou at the Now York meet- ing, and 1t {8 probable that o apecial meeting will bo catled to finally disnoss of this matter, ‘The live-stock businces is another ditlleult which necds adjustment, and this subject will probably take up all the timo of tho New York meeting, As 18 well known, this business Is pooled by the roads leading Bust from Chicagons wellag by the roads leading Enst from 8t. Louls. The Chicago pool was formed two or thrro yenrs ago, but tho St. Loula com- binatlon was not onzmnized untll shout siz months aro and only afterbeingcompelled to do s by the Chleago roads, which™ had been snffer. ing very much from the cutting of mtesand the When the Bt. Louis pool was orgranized it wus agresd that the rute from St, Lotla should be five conts mory thun from Chicaco, This was a concession to the St. Louis ronda, as the differcuce, bused on tho regular mileog., would bo about elgnt cents, Yet the 8t. Lowis roads are not sutisfied, and The track was howling beenuse thelr business has been falling off, claimiug that the Chicayo rosds were not ncting fu good falth. Thoy churizo that cortaln of the lance shippers of Chic “eveners? recelved rebate of $15 a car, which rcbate was nut given to the 8t. Loufs sbippers, They also charge that certaln roads leading Eust from Cnicago Bl been cutting the regular tarlff rates. As fur aa the former chargo I8 coieerncdd, it Is corrcet in g0 fur that the New York trunk llnes pay a rebate to the “evencra’ and then charge liack to the Western roads thelr propor- tlon.” But us far as can bo lencncd the samo rebate Is palil Ly the trunk lNnes on shipments from 8t Louls, and it {s therefore bard to see how St. Louls hos a dlsadvantage on this ace count. The Injustice of paying such a rehato to certaln cluss of favored shippers has often been pointed out. by Tue TRIBUNE, not Decnuso it is a discrimination nzatnst ather eltics, but heeause it diseriminatea sgufust the small shippers hoth at Chicago und 8t, Louis. It fs evident that such an arrangement caunot last any length of time, and it is thefintention to have this matter corrected ot the Now York ineeting, Tho charge that eome of the Chicago roads huve been cutting the rates la entirely unfounded. ~ The” Grand Trunk i Canada Southern Roads ure sala to have been’ detected In cutting tho rates. The Grand ‘Trunk has_for mauy years past been fighting the Nuw York trank Hnes,and it fs o hard watter to control ft ns regards the main- tenanco of rates. Yet it {a suld that this roug is williug to join an arrangement for so doing, and that it will send a representative to the New York mecting, As fur a8 the Canada Bouthern §s concerned, it can easlly be hrought to terms by Vauderbilt, who contfols it. Tho cutting of ratus by thess roads, however, does thot Justlty the 8. Louls roail In eharging shiat it grives Clienizo an advantag While "the cut- tngg by the Grand Trunk might benett the Cal- cago ronds somuwhat, the scallug of rates by the Cunada Bouthern offsets that odvantawd, us it ucts most of fta live stock busls noss frum the Bouthwestern lines, espoclally the Wubash Road, which has been tho worst grumbler of all, It is evident from the foreguiue that the Jive-atock pools os at present unizunxcu ars hot 8 success, abd that they neod a thorough overhauling, if they ahall not go to pieees befure long, ‘Llie New York lines, how- aver, are to Llame for most of the troubles that haye thus far prevented pools from becoming a success, As soon as theydeclde that no rebates should be pald anyhody, and that the rates tromn the various points must be based on the actual mileago, then things will work smoothly aud pleasantly, and one of the problems towands wmsking their own pool s sucvess will have been solved, As longas the Western roads aro ut variance as regards East-bound shipuients, there ;‘“l:l‘:l 1o barmony as regurds the west-bound relghte.
