Dame Trot and Dick Bwiveller the Winners. BABE-BALL, CRICAGO—INDIANATOLIS. The White Btockings won their ninth consecu- tlve victory yesterday, defeating the Indlanapo- 18 team very neatly, and making the best fcld- ing display, all things consldered, which they havo shomn on the home grounds this scason. They have made n less number of errors In two previous gumes, but have never handled really diflicult batting so well as they did vesterday. ‘The attendancs was about what it has been of late, Increascd somesvhat by the fact tbat tho interest fn the team I8 on the increase. Fergue #on lost the toss, and Quest opened tha gainc with a hit to contre. Clapp followed with a bounder to left, and Shaffer advanced thema peg by an out, which was beantifully handled and thrown by Haokinson. Flint sent o fly out to Remsen, and it was captured, of course. Quest staried for the plate, and Remsen threw in 1o head bim off, but Ferguson thought best o Intercept tho ball and send it to Haukinson to cut off Clapp. The play was success- ful, though Quest scored. In the sce ond Inning Nolan hit to left for two bases, and sttompted to score on Warner's bounder to centre. It didu’t work, however, for Remsen sont the Lall fn swiftly and accu- rately, and Harbidge put out *The Only * casily snough. In the fourth Queat and Clapp sccured bases with one haud out, but Shaffer and Flint were unablo to bring {n any runs. In the seventh Clapp worked around to third on o hit, o steal, and su out, but Flint’s sharp tip was nalled by Harbidge, and Nolan struck out, lcaving the runper_on third. In making the oiay off Flint, Harbldge hurt his hand counsider- ably, but made no complaint, and, indecd, seemed to catch rather better for it Iu the elghth fonlog Willlamson was scnt to base on balls, and McKelvey followed with a boundor to Hallinan, which the Istter secured, and, step- ping on aecond, forced ont Willlamson. In throwiog to first to get a double play he was {n- terfered with by Willlamson, and the bali went over Btart to tho staud, letting McKelvey around to third, whenco lio came in on a wild pitch, makiog the score of the visitors for the game just two, ‘The White Stockings began their run-gotting in the sccoud fnuing. Hallinan was sent to baso on valls, and Casgjdy had n Mo given by Shaffer, Larkin came to tho rescuc with o beauty to right fleld, which let inarun. No butting to any effect was done until tho seventh {npfog, when' Caasidy led off with o bounder which Quest could not quite roach., He stole second by a clover alide, and scored on Hankin- son's sharp hit to teft. Romnscn followed with o cracker to right field for two bascs, bringiug in Hankinson, Harbidge followed with o sharp oune which bounded off Quest’s shius, and Rem- sen seored. Auson ciosed the inning by driving a hinerat Nolan, which the Iatter did well to stop. 1t was a plucky plecs of work for *'fhoe Ounly.” In the Jast inning, after Hankinson had mude an out, Kemsun hit a safu bouuder over second, and stole second prettily, larbldge followed with a liner to left, aud Start, who lad becn saviug himeelf up for a hit, got the well sldo of his bat on the ball, and sent it away over Clapp's head, bringlog in both runs, [t would have becn three hasca for Btart wlth most fielders, but Clapp handled it sharply, and, by a fine throw, taught Joo before lo reached third.

The north half, of course, had vo use for the bridge, and pro- posed to sclt it to the other balf, which was compelled to crose the river by the necessities of trade. No agrecwent could bo bad, #od the south half built s new frum bridge, leaving the old clephant on the hauds of the owners with no use for it. ‘The next step was for the routh half, or Keukuk & Des Molnes, to zet depot sc- commodativns. The Des Motnes & Fort Dodee had nope to spare. The Keokuk & Les Motnes bezan to buy lota for o depot, and tho Des Moloes & Fort D also bought ad- Jolning Jots. Then -trouble began. Law- suitsa aud injubctions mccumulated thick sod fast, The Keokuk & Des Mofucs finally secured ground and erected depats. The Des Molnes & Fort Dodge did not think it oxactly cunsistent to beylvlnfi money In business con- nections to tho Keokuk & Des Moiucs to be used In lawsults to crush them, 8o they cntered futo an aerrangement with the Chicago & Rock Island by which ail thelr East-bound frelght and passenger business was transferred to that road, ood business connection was scvercd with the Keokuk & Des Moines. ‘The latter road at ouce voucluded to test the virtues of tho new Rail- road Commissioners’ systent, and so it has hap- pened that o !&swm Inaugurated to protect the people, and Grangers especially, agaiust en- croachments of raliroad companies, is frut called into requaition by two belligerent rafle road corporations. ‘The tnatter was argucd by able counsel be- fore the full Hoard, and Judge McDill, of the Board, In a very exliauative review of the case, held that the Board had competent jurisdiction, aud that tho complaint waslegally presented hy the Keakuk & Des Moines.
