THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER 29, 1878—SIXTEE N PAGES, . 7 ~ SPORTING: . BASE-BALL. i MUCI MUFFIN Yesterdsy Tne TRIBUNE coneratulated the Chicagos on having the day before played a hew aod remarkable kind of game for them,—one where they won by flelding, thoush outbatted. This morning it points out a relapse, ana calls gttontion 10 the fact that the, White Stockings sesterday outbatted their opponents, and then Jost the mamg by their wonderful mufling. The attendance was better than at either of the preceding, Star games, though not very large even then. The home team lost the toss, gnd led off with 2 run made on an error of Csrpenter whea two hauds were out. The jtors respunced in - their half of the inmung with & ruu made on two hits and an error by Peters. u the third ipning singles by Hankin- fon and Anson and Ferguson’s long two-baser gave Chicago tho only two earned runs which hey made in the game. JIn the last half the Stars came back at tbe Whites with tbree runs,—one given by Remsen’s eror and the other two by Peters’ muil. Io the the next inning the Chicagos 1usde a0 awiul exhibition of themselves, letting jnfive runson three single base-hits, supple- mented by no less than eight errors, four of which wave men first base. Just as a matter of cariosity, subpose, instead of describing that juniog, the reporter should tabulate it; for in- gtance, there were five ruus made, and of course jour bases for eachone, or twentv bases in all; then two men put out at eecond who had made first vase; add one for each of them, and that would be twenty-two bases; then a man left on shira: be bad iwnade three bases, and those added in show thst the Stars made twenty-five pases somebow in that inning. Now let us see how they got them; here it is in tabular form: Buses. Ty clean hits they got. S cloan sicals . I B On Anson’s wide Lhirow, On Ferzason's passtd groundes On Petens” muiled crounder.

It resulted from an error by Larki In the sixth inving, with the score at 1010 3 against them, the Chicagas tried_to pull out, and made 2 rood strugrrle for it. Remsen Jed off with a hit, and scored ou two more und 2 passed vall. In the seventh the Stars Gid ali tle mufling and let in three uncarned rune. The_costly errors were by Heifer, Farrell, and McClellan, and bits by Ansou and Remsen ‘brougit in the runs. In the last inving Carpen- ter gave Powers his base, and thrce more errors worked im around home with the eighth run for his side. Following is . THE SeonE: caicaco. Cassidy, T foooe e Ftart, 1'b.

The times at bat are equal; the Chicagos led decide i batting, both sinzie and total base-hit reached first base more times than their oppo- uents; they earned more runs; they were left on bases oaly puce morc, and Lhe errors which affected the score were cqual in number.

It will be scen, therefore, that the official- gives every man except two a far better record ioan the newspaper. One of Lwo things Istrue: either the paper has systematically defracted or tie official has svstematically “sweetened ” the scores. Wiy Jones’ official score is_not larzer is casily guessed, but why McVer’s las dwindled is harder to say. While Tne Tris- TUXE reporter does not in the least admire the Enguirer’s style of puttine ball news before the public, he is free to say that, so far as his ob- servation zoes, much more justice has been done by the Enguirer than by the otticfal. This “observation” refers to the six Chicago zames, in Cinciunati which were scored by a Chicago Teporter. s i BOSTON PROSPECTS. The Boston programme for 1579 is thus laid down oy the Hera.d, whichis supposed toslways know ali about it: Considerable interest is already bemg manifested relative to the personnel of the Loston Club for nest year, especially since the announcement from the Western clubs tiat they had, at thisearly date, engazed their players for the next campaigu. Bond, Burdock, Moreill, end Satton hold over with the Bostons on unexpired contracts. The only new contract thus far made bas been with Jones, Jeft-ficlder of this year's Cincinnatis. Sny- der has promised to play n Boston next vear, but no agrcement hasas vet been sizmed. this’ will leave three places to be filed, : Short-stop, made vacant by the retiremant of George Wright, centre and rizht-fleld. For the first position Rich- mond, of the Uticas, has been thought of, but be- fore any decision ix made the field will be carefully canvassed, and the best available material ootainen. Purcell. micner. and ltichardson, centre-fleider, of the sume Club, have aleo beeu thought of. A etrong effort will - be made to retain O'Rourke, und, -unless bis terms are entirely un- reasonable. may prove wsuccessful. Some of the Lioston Association would like to see O'Rourke and lns brother, the latter ‘now playing with the Mauchesters, members of the Club next year. This wonld ke a strong outfield, both battinz und fielding. Foley and Mawes, of the Lowells, have been communicated with, and their terms received, a definite answer to be returned to them withina specified date. Trwo thinga may be €ain to have teen virtually settled upon regarding the Boston Club of nest vear, viz. : that there will be a chiange pitcher, and no enormous salary_list, as appears to be the practice in some of the West- ern organizations. In regard to the first, either Foley or Purcell would @il the bill. With one ex- ception, Bond has pitched in _every champignshin wame played by the Bostons this vear,una no small DProportion of their kucc-ss has been due to the - cessant, indefatizable efforts of this popular king of pitchers. The Club next year will b econom- icaily munazed, the jeeling prevailing that high salarivs do not make tue best players, and that szood material can be found smong those who have not such a uational reputation as the hizh-salarted ones. 1t cun be depended upon that Boston will have s clud in 1879 in every way worthy of it According to this the “left-outs” will be Leonard, O’ Rourke, Manning, and Schafer. The Question of salary hias unquestionably to do with some of those names. THE BOSTER. All the Leazue clubs except Milwaukee have now announced at least a part of their teams for 187Y. and, desgite the fact that it is not yet kuown how many additioml clubswill be admit- ted, it is proper to present the list as far as it is known. Amendments cun be made later. Fol- lowing is the roster: Boston. Cincinnati. Snyder, c. . White, c. Bond. p. W. White, p. Morrill, 1 Anson. 1b. il 1b.

It was oo the ball-ground. He was a young man, and bad a memorandum-book in his havd. He was working anay with a pencil, and pres- entlv a man leaned over and said: ** What's the ecore? 1 don’t know,” was the reply. Then there was a few moments of silence, durine which time the young mai until another man aporoacited sus *What inning is t| g * Don’t krtow,” was the sullen reply. 40, you don’t.” said the querist, sireastical- I, “well, you needn’t be puiting on_airs over it, as if I were asking you the secrets of Free- masoury.” He had no wore than recovered from t*e shocis than another man wallked over to aim and inquired: *Was that last a two or three-base hit?*? This made the young man mad, and he re- ‘plicd not. ‘I'he inguirer passed, and he enjoved five min- utes’ peace, when a rageed littlé samin stepped up to him and yelled: *Say, mister, how many runs ahead are'the Jerseys Then a rzan asked him which paper he repre- seuted, and while he was simmering with raze auotaer fellow walked up to him to make some inquiry, but beforc hie could open his mouth to do §0 the man with the memorandum-book cut Bim short by jumping upand - sereaming, I don’t kunow “the score: Tdon’t know what in- ning it is; 1 don’s kuow a curve-pitcher from a history of Parazuay; Lam not connected with any paper; now don’t ask me any more qiles- tions. 1t’sa pity if a man can’t sit down to compose a few verses for a lady’s autograph album without being bored to death about a frame of ball 17 Then he resumed his seat, red in the face, and was allowed to continue his verses in peace.— Hackensack Republican. GENERAL NOTES Troy Times: ‘‘Just about five members of the [Haymaker nine, as pow constituted, should follow Horace Greeley’s advive.” The Stars expected to play to-morrow in Cin- cinpati, but the smune has been canceled, and toey will play in Cleveland iustead. 1t is aunounced that the Cincinnati and In- diauapolis Clubs will play in the jatter city Tuesday aud Wednesday of this week. The games for this week will be three,—all with Milwankee. ~ They will be played on Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

Referring to the Julicn umpiring in Chicago the other day, the Enquirer says: ‘“After one or two umpires get hung some of these days, the remainger will be- careful how they make double playsall by themselves.” The Syracuse Herad says of Utiea: ~“Itis <gid-that a proposition has been made to Me- him hire 2 mue, no member of waich shall be paid more than $300 forthe year's work, MeGuinuess to be Capsain and Mavager.™ The Providence manazement_aunounce the following as their team for 1879: Ward, p.; Brown, ¢.; Start, 1b.; Farrelt, 20.; Haeuc, 3b.5 Wright, York, 1. £.3 tiues, . £.: Higham, r. 1.

The Peoria Reds have disbanded for the sea- son. They plaved a stron game and made a good record. It fs expected that Morzen, the Munager of the Club, wiil have charge of a team in Detroit next season. There used to be 8 #ood deal of interest in the game in Michizan, and plenty of State rivalry. Morgan ought to make a suceess of his move. The prospect is favorable for a basé-ball nine in Lowell next season, but no merber of a nine will be engaged until 2 suflicient guarantee has been pledzed to run the Club throush the sea- gon. The Lowelts’ programme for the coming week is as follows: Sept. 30, Utlea; Oct. 1, € wezo; Oct. 2 ana 3, Svracuse; Oct. 4, Tro; Oct. 5, Albany.—Boston. Hera'd. The Lorells have voted to expel Sam Crane, the seeond baseman of ti# late Rochesters. Ther claim that wien the Rochesters dishanded Crane wrote saving that_he would play yie sea- son out i that city. Instead of so doing, he joined the Springficlds. As the Lowells have o written contract with him, their attempts to expel him will amount to nothing.—Buffi'o £z- press. y ‘The New York Herald says: * Efforts are being put forth to orcunize strong ciubs in Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washinaton, with a view to their becoming counected twith the stronz ofd professfonal _orcunization the Leazue]. As several zoud elubs are needed in the East to fill up that body to elzht orten clubg, which are ahout all they will admit, and equalize the number of this and the Western section of the country, there is somé probability of #ood clubs in the vities named, or in thiscity and Brooklvn, if such were here, beiug ad- mitted. In noevent is there any likelihood of the Leazue increasina the size of its organiza- tion, however, beyond a dozen clubs. * The Mercury's correspondent at’ Worcester, Mass., states that the Worcester Base-Ball Asso- sciation held a meeting on the evening of Seot. 16, deelded to wind up its allairs, authorized the Directors to pay all claims azalnst the Associa- tion, made an nssessmeut of 370 per share, and voted unanimously to take immediate measure to have Brackect and the other players expelied from the International Associarion. It is the general opinion that Brackett is alone to blame for the desertian of the nine. Thetotal receipts of the Club on its Southern trip were $517. The plavers received $175 ot this, and the rest, Brackett claims, was soent for expenses. The property of the Association s at Baltimore. The Washington Capita’ savs: * Dary Force has siened to play with the Baffalos next year. Speaking of Davy reminds usof an inciden that oceurred in the National Rotel in '71. The White Stockings, of Chicago, played the Olym- pice here, and were badly beaten—something hike tnirteen to nothing. Davy was in high olee and skipped into the Natios where the first man be met was Ned O’Baldwin. the Irish miant, Ned stood nearly seven feet in his stockings, and- Davy about four feet. To the amusement of the bystanders the bantum struck an attitude and invited the O’B. to square Dimself. The incident ias so ludicrous that all—Ned included—except, the Chicazo players, Jjoined in the laugh. The White Stockings were then Captained by Jimmy Wood, the finest cecond baseman that ever douned a uniform, and included MeAtee, Zettlein, ete. How soon they pass from the stage.”” The statement made in this and varions other papers that Farrell, of the Stars, was to play in Providence next vear was pased on the asser- tion or the Proyidence manawers, but it now seems to be incorrect. There is no doubt that Farrell verbaily azreed to wo under certain con- ditions, and it is said that he sizned a telegram agrecing to terms, but it hardly scemsihat such a baremain is good in League law. The lat- ter provides that “The contract shall be in writing, be dated, specify the time, indicate the service, and be sigmed by the pluyer and some oflicer. or recognizea acent of the Club and otie witness.” "Also that no eontract shall be valid until after the receipt by the Secretary of the Leazue of a_notice sizned by the Club and player. No verbal agreement or telegam can fuliill these conditions. Farrell has sinc. with the Ster Club in_proper form. and the no doubt that he will play there. Georze Wright’s mistake. and it seems strangze that he should have made it, was in depending on any- thing except an attested sigbhature. The Cincinnati Enguirer announcesthat Burke Dhas enmaged with the Club of its city, and that his contract is in the President’ssafe.” To which the Cleveland Hera'd replies: **Burke has not fully determined to play here, althouwh it is hoped he will do so. lle has no engagement with the Cincinnati Club, althouszh the Euquirer states positively that his contract is iu the hands of Mr. Nefl, and he is at perfect liberty to play here if he wishes to. His delay in signing bere is caused by the fact that he wishes to see how stroug a nine is to be orzanized. Neither aas Kennedy been engazed, aithough it is also very much to be tioped that he will be. The nearest there is to an enmagement with him is his proinise to inform the nanagement here hefore siening in_any other place. The basemen and right and left ficlders of the present nine will witiiout doubt £ill the same positions next year. To fill the pitcher’s position neotiations are pending with Mitckell, of the ‘Cincinuatis, and Purcell, of the Uticas, but taere are hardly any Indications a3 to what the result will be.” . THE TURF. A GLORIOUS SUCCES3. r'be entries to the fnaugural meeting of the Chicago Trotting and Jockey Club closed last evening, and aré given below. They are fifty- two in number, and to say that they indicate that the coming meeting will be by far the most suceessful ever held in the West is putting the matter very mildlv indeed. The result has agreeably surprised even the most sanguine supporters of the Club, and is av indication of ‘what may be expected 0 long as there is a first- class track i1t Chicago, run by first-c men. It 18 tke history of every association in the country, that fully one-third of the entrics Lo each meeting are mailed from distant poiuts®on the day that the unominations close, ‘and conseguently do not redch their destination antil two or threc days afterward, Should this rule hold good in the case of the Chicazo Club, —and there is no reason to doubt that it will,— the total number of nominations to the Jiffer- ent cvents on the programme of the coming meeting will be upwards of seveunty. It will be scen by reading the list that every trotting and pacing - horse in the country is to be here, and every race, except the free-for-all, has been filled, and another participant in this will doubt- less turn up before many davs. A great many horsemen were deterrcd from entering their animals in this race because they feared the presence of Kdwin Forrest. It will be noticed, however, that Green concluded to start Lula in- steaaof thewounderful young son of Ned Forrest, probably reserving bim for a_special trial of . “In the slower classes, the names of con- nts arc numerous, and they come from all parts of the United States and Canada. 1t was not thought that any horses now in the East would - be here, but a npumber of them aré¢ entered. Chicago s repre- sented bv the stables of Budd Doble, who hiss the promising young mare, Callaban’s Maid, in_two cvents; Samuel J. Morgan, who in Star Duroc-and Pledmont has two ol the best sons of the famous trotting gires Messenger Duroc and Almont; D. W. Kendall, with Black Doc; and Georwe Lozan, with Sueprise. Peter V. Johnsop will also be op hand with the fast stallion, Envoy. The 2:20 race, ou the opening day, will bring together oue of the fioest fields of “horses ever £een in the countrs, and when the statement is made that it includes such notabie flversias Scott’s Thomas, Mazo-Manie, Wolford's Z, Tom Keeler, John H., and Dame Trot, nottine more is necessary to interest every man who takes an interest fo turf sports. How “tbe other purses bave filled may be secn by reference to the list helow. It s o great triumph for Chicazo that the As- sociation has secured for its ivaupgaral meeting the best horses of the country, and immense crowds will witness each day’s sport, there can be no doubt.

It caunot be said that the lirst trotting meet- ne, given last week by the St. Louis dockey and “Trottinz Club, was a marked su Great anticipations had beenraised in the mind of the puvlic by the wiit-spread prelimin: advertising which the mestinx recetved, and when such anticipations are not realized there is alw: s a feeiing of disappowitiaent, not un- with disgust. - The policy oi tie St. s Clubin regard to thi wisest. In tue first o difference of opinton am fzard to holding such a m s it the track should nted exclusively to ruaners, whiie others held that an - entire dévo- tion to thorouzbbred interests was neither w! nor sensible. Another fact that opera against a successful trotling meeting was, thay chanze in the date when the entries closed was made afier circulars been sent gil over the country sunouncinz the day on which all nowminati to the various cvents wust ve seut in. This confusion of dates mis- led many horsemen, and in Chicazo alone there was at léast one driver who was deceived by it to such an exteny that he was unable to enter his orses at the meetivg, as he had intended doing. - This chaneinz ot dates was done at the request of several drivers wiio went through the tireat Western Cirenit with their stables, and did not wish records made duringr that time to be a b: St. Louis. Of vourse this caterivg to of these men was very convenient 2 to tuem, but toe result was disas- trous to the Si. Louis Tolks, who, in their anx- ivty ta Keep on the right side of such Moguls as Dan Maee, Dan De Noyelles, and others, entire- 1y lost sight of the imgortant fact that there are other horses in the country besides Darby and Ad- claide. The prozrammeof themeeriniz wasalso altered because some alleged wiseacres of the sulkey told Mr. Carr tuat the eterual salvation of the St. Louis Club depended upon it, and he wis simple enouyin to aceept thelr talk as he would have that of uninterested parti These things are fully understood ‘in St. Louis now that it is too late to remedy them, zud the papers of that vity have been makiog a desperate eifort to wloss over the maiter as much 43 possible, ana divert attention from the failure by persistently and vigorously abusine the Aszoviation at Quiney, in tiis State. which had the temerity to give 2 meeting during the week of the one at St. Loufs. The trouble with tee St. Louis Club is that its members have been_influenced altowether too wuch by the runuing horsemen of the Soutn and such papers as the Keatucky Live-Stock Teecord, a 6x) sheer, . which . Is edited by a gentleman who - belleves in L'en Broeck, d the Louisville Ass tiou. Lf he; v attention to men whose talkis all in tne interest of tieir own pocketbooks, und manage the aflairs of the Club as their own wood sense dictates, their suceess can be no less, avd their failure would ceriainly be no greater. The races for. to- ¢ postpoued to Monday onr account of the rain. TRACK TALK.

Nettie, record 2:18, hus won but $300 this season. Rather a poor showing for a free-for- all trotter. John H. Wallace, Esq., editor of fFaace’s Aontl'y, has recurned from u three-months? trip to Europe. George Lorillard netted $20,000 from bhis T stable last year, aud gave the entire amount in charity. Lida Bassctt, the Cineinnati mare that was so well thoueht of last seasom, is at St. Louis, and dofug well fn her work. Rassian Spy, a somewhat- celebrated Canucle trotter, has been purchased by Kecves aud Flan- agan, of Toronto, for $4,000. Matt Colvin, oue of the oldest and best- known drivers in the West, has reiurned to Chicago from St. Louts, woere he bas spent the pust yedr. English race-horses arc fed on the best up- land bay, ot which six or eight pounds are given 10 cach daily, and froudilteen 1o Lventy pounds of the best oats. Budd Doble attended the rac last veek in the 1nterest of th&Chn ¥ anil iz Club, $hd succeeded in seeuring sever- al entries for Lhe meeting. Georze Nelsou, driver of Lady McFatridge, record has reached Chicago with the mare, and is at the new track. Lady McFatridge will trot at the coming meetin; Bristow, u converted pacer that could trot close to 220, and owned by the Messrs. Melen- Ay, of Rosersvlile, Teun., was killed recently in 4 raliroad accident in that State. A Brure of Justive, with the traditional sword aud scales, stands guard over the entrance to the new track. Its suguestiveness will be ap- preetated by both horsemen and the public. Witliam . Doble, Jr., bas gone to Philadel- phia with- the trotting welding Scotland, that was entered throuzh the Great Western Cir- cuit, but found to be too slow for his class. J. Frani Work, Esq., of New York, who_re- cently purchased Edward, record 2319, tainks he can drive that horse and Bill Thunder to the pole in 2:20. Perhaps he can, and then again—.

This is a lon:x price for a 2-vear-old in these hard times, and indieazes that {nmbletonian blood is well thought of. Budd Doble, while in Kentucky last iinter, was wrzed to buy Proteine for 53,000, but held off, wisning to rrive but $2,500. In July he went to Buffulo intent wpon securing her it almost any cost, but could not_get the owners of the mare to name a price.
