The champlons of tha Leaguo 1nade thelr firat Western appearance yesterday, and carrfed ay a game which was as curious In Its play as any scen In this city this year. It Harry Wright can have the same percentago of Juck to skillall through that he had yesterday, he need never loss the pennant. As Isusual when the [fostons como liere, the attendance was good, and, moreover, the weathee was pleasant. and enjoyable. Fer- gueon won the toss, and disposed of the red fegs without & run. Harhidge led off for the hoine team, and sent & good onc_ sgainst right- fleld fence, taking sccoud on the play. Start it to Wright, and was out, though Harbidee reached third, Ansou hit safely into right field, bringing n Harbldge's tally, which proved tolbrthe only esroed run of the game. Fer- guson hit safely to right centre, bul was caught napping at first by dnyder to Morrill, ‘Chis run stood alone on the scora-bouk until jn the third inning Leonard bit safely toright, He then started to steal sccond and lisrbidae over- threw, shich tempted him to start for thitd. Hemsen picked up the ball, but did not make a elean job of his lfm)lv to Hankinaon, und Andy was gafe on third. Larkin let in the run by a wild pitch. Intho Afthinoing Casaldy led off with & bounder to George Wright, which the Iatter sent whirling over Morrill's hend into the acats, letting Casakdy tako third, Larkin thun hit a_high ono over second and Cassidy scored; but, for some unexplained reason, Larkin forzot to run, and was putout at first. In the sixth innlug O'Rourke tled the: score, He led oft with o nafe one tolelt, und Msnning followed with o bounder which Cassidy fielded to Start in time. 1t ot away from Joe, how- over, and O'Rourke roached third on tho nay. Burdock brought biin in on a stuw ane to Btart which was an out for hlmsclf. Juat hera tho Chicagos ceased acor- for and the Bostons bewan. In the seventh Tond it a safo single-bascr, which came to Auson apparently easy, butit went through Him, or under him, cleat to the sents, ao that Bond tallied beforo the ball was returned. Sny- der followed with a high short-fly which Fergu- son ran out for, but could not quite reach. This, too, got away almost to the seats, whilo Snvder ran around to third,whence he was broughtin by Georre Wright's safo ono past third. in the lasy {nning Sutton led off with a hit, and then, wlien two hauds were out, Bnyder followed with auother, and Wright was sént to buse on balls. Leonapd hit te McClelian, and he threw low to Start, after which O'Rourke hit safely and threo ru: ero scored before Leonard was run out by Cassidy near second. Followlug is THE Arous. CHICAGO.

It had uot been generally known heretofore that the Canada Bouthern Ratlroad had been virtually presented to Vanderbilt by the Gould crowd, but the facts set forth made It clear why such friendly reta- tlons hve fately oxisted hetween (Gouid and Vanderbit, It was' a zame of ** You help me to conttol the roads east of Chicago, and ') heln vou to control the roada west ot Chicagu.” The inforination that the Canadian Parliament bad alded Vaniderbilt, and thus tirtually destroyed the other ronds of the Dominion, caused no [ess of aaurprise. It had herctofore been helleved that the Canadlan teglslutors were not guite up yettothe tricks of Amecrican ones, but this showed that tucy arc even more oxpert Io this busincss thso Awseri- cans, A _member of the Parllament which passed the bi)l stlowing the stockholders of the Canada Southern to raze the debt of the rond 80 ns to get Vanderbilt to guarantee | showed T TRIBUNE corresnondent papers nult'l documents which show up the traneaction 1 oll its nakeduess.

Tho Chicago & Lake Huron, which the Graud Trunk was trying to et os s Weatern outlet, has 8180 been gobbled up hefors ita very oyes by Vanderbilt, and so has every other ave- nug of Western escape except the Detrolr, Hills- dale & Bouthwestern, which, by an addition ot about 100 tiles, could be made to connect with the Baltimore & Ollo, and thus afford an out- let, The owners of this road are anxious o sell, and it 18 clatmed that Br. Hickson, General Manager of the Grand Trunk, has gone to Europe to get authority and the meaus to purchase this property. A dispatch was re- colved, howerer, a day or two ago from Mr. Hicksun, in which he states that the bond- holdera of the Grand Trunk refuse to make any more sacrifices, and that he cannut ratse the money. Vanderbilt was in Europe a short time o¢o, snd wlilo there he undoubtedly satisfied Limsell of this lzm‘ and therefors ho s not very auxious to buy the Hillsdale Road untess he can get it for a soug. This, of course, dise poses of the urand Trunk, and, as long os Vau- derblit biolas the sway, It caunot aspire to auy- thing higher than o [ocal road, with na through conuections whatever, If it wants ta do busi- ness, {L must accept such terma 08 Vanderbiit mgy sce fit to dictate. 8 regards the Erie, Vanderbilt's policy scems to be th same as that toward the Grand Trunk.
