The team bas not disappointed a single expectation formed -regarding It at the beginning of the season. It “Has proved itself so far to be the strongest League nine in every essential particular,— patting, base-running, flelding, and earnest, ‘united, harmonious play. Wiseacres shake their heads, Jook scornful, andsay: “Yes; they did the ‘same last year—beat everybody for a while, and “then went all to pieces.” True, they did, and may do again, but it is not likely.

CLEVELAND. ‘The finest day. the largest attendance, and the dest game of the season in Chicagu were the features of yesterday's meeting for the third time of the Chicago and Cleveland teams. There - Were over 3,000 people present, and the manager of the visiting nine was frank enough to say that it was not only the largest crowd he had seen this year at a ball game, but the largest he hadeverscen. Both teams seemed to rise to the spirit of the occasion, and they played a Strong, active, exciting game from first to last. AS a display of heavy batting nothing equal has -been seen here this year, and the spectators were treated to the first really clean home run ever made on these grounds. Gore was the “ striker, and it is fair to say that but for his re- mark able speed as a runner the hit would have been scored as a three-baser only. Probably no other player in the League could have reached home on'the hit. The gam began with Chicago at bat, and Dal- rymple at once hit clean for a base. Then fol- "lowed the unusual circumstance of three men - being forced out at second base in consecutive order, Gore, Williamson, and Anson all batting so that theirpreaecessora were sacrificed. The second inning was a blank, but the third saw an astonishing illustration of the science of heavy hitting. After the firsttwo strikers had been retired Dalrymple made first on an error by _Glasscock’s muff of his grounder. Then came Gore's terrific four-buser, the ball being bit with such force that itrolled far down centre field and up over and beyond the little hillock of dirt ‘at the north fence. Gore made the entire cir- -euit by the fastest running ever seen in Chicago, bringing Dalrymple in ahead of him, Williamson -now hit to centre field for three bases, and Anson put one in the same place, on which he reached second easily,—making a total of nine bases and three runs batted for by three strikers, though none of the runs were earned, as Dalrymple should “have been third out. In the fourth a clean hit and a clean steal to second by Corcoran, togeth- er with sacrifice hits by Fiintand Burns, pro- iduced an earted run; in the fifth two were made and earned on a two-baggerby Dalrymple, one just like it by Anson, and a single by Kelly; and in the seventh double-basers by both Flint and Kelly, and singles by Williamson and Burns, earned two more, leaving Chicago's total score até The Clevelands proved to be a hard party to beat at any stage,and the way ‘they were playi made a lead of three or four runs no “sure thing for a victory. Corcoran pitched the “best he has dune this ycar, though a wild throw by bim and the giving of three men bases on “balls resulted in cuabling the Clevelands to make two runs, a pair of passed bulls by .Fitnt donating the other. McCormick: in the rd inning went to tirst on bnila; and was batted home by little Gilligan's corking three- baser to left fleld, and Gilligan came in with au earned run while Glasscock was being put out atfirst. Iv the next inning two men struck out, a third was Fives his base on bulls, another got alife by Williamson's tumbleof a grounder, but no tally resuited. Inthe sixth a base nit by Shafter, two passed balls, and the put-outs -brought an.unearned run in. In the seventh Phillips went to firat on bulls, wus advanced to second on McCormick's safe hit; both went on a ang fortes on Corcoran’s wild throw to catch ‘McCormick napping at first; and Phillips tallied on a ball hit safe by Gilligan, but which would have been a sure out had not Quest been playing clear inside the diamond for a man on third, In this inni Gilligan, _baving stolen id, Was goed there by one of Flint’s ‘quick throws to Quest. In the eighth inning Dunlap made what was prob- ably the longest hit.of the game, as it went high and fiar over the left-field fence. He at once ‘stole third by sharp basc-running, and was batted home by. Hotaling. The ninth inning was also unique. as all three Cleveland strikers went ‘out fron. Quest to Anson. ‘Thus ended a very brilliant batting and felding me, and the ‘visitors left the field convinced, ns the specta- tors likewise were, that they hud-struck the bardest nine in the ie, and that the club will be lucky that scores three straight victories against them this year, They have won she respect and admiration of Chicago ball pat-- tons by their tine play and manly deportinent, and next to the home team ‘will have Chicago's best wishes for success.

Y., May 22.—Worcester got revenge aay to-day, winning the game by a score of | ws THE TROY-PROVIDENCE CASE. Considerable discussion has arisen regarding the failure of the Troy Club to remain over in Providence and play on the Ith of May the game postponed on account of rain from May 13, the regular schedule date. The truth of the matter undoubtedly is that Ferguson, having an engagement to play the Albanys on the Iith, and believing there was ‘more money in that than in the Providence game, concluded to let the latier go by default and take his chances of gotting out of trouble later on. President Hul- bert was asked yesterday by a TRIBUNE inter- viewer: “What is proposed to be done about the Troy- Providence matter?" The League Chief Executive seemed unwill- ing to tulk on that subject, but when the !nter- viewer came squarely at him with the question, “Haven't you called a special meeting of the League to consider it?” hesuw that reticence would not win, and replied: “Well, since you know all about italready, I may as well say that a special meating has been called. Here is the call, addressed tothe Presidents of the different yrue clubs: “CucaGo, DL, May 20.~A4 complication has arisen between Providence and Troy which ern- uot be properly adjusted. I therefore hereby calla speciat meeting at the Cataract House, Niagara Falls, Tuesday, 25th inst., at noon. “W. A. HULBERT, President League.” The reporter asked: “Is this meeting cailed with a view to the possible expulsion of the Troy Club for failure to meet its engzazements?” “Certainly not,” was the emphutic response. “The League constitution provides’ for for- feiture of membership only for voluntary with- rawal or disbandment, for failing or refusing to comply with any irwful requirement of the Board, or for willfully violating any provisions of the constitution or playing rules; but in cases where the constitution docs not specifically in- flict immediate forfelture—nnd this is evidently onc of those cases—the matter can only be con- sidered at the regular annual meeting, and the forfeiture enforced by a two-thirds’ vote.” eaten mn why has the special meeting been “ Because it is essential to have some action taken which will prevent other clubs from fall- ing to meet engagements, and to remove all cloud or uncertainty regarding the legality of Rane: Played and to played by the Troy ub. “Then the whole matter may be settled at this special meeting?” “rely on the good feeling, amity, and cor Tect principles that have always obtained in the League to square up this difficulty peacefully and effectually. ‘The power tomake and change laws resides in the members of the League, as does the power to suspend the operation of o law if tho League thinks proper. A case in puint was the Ha‘ benefit game at Cincinnati. Such & game was expressly forbidden by League law, and yet by unanimous consent it was allowed to bé played. Ihave no doubt whe League will do the best thing and the right thing in this Providence-Troy complication.” “Why can't the postponed game be played hereafter?" “I don't think it will be possible, Providence has a right to that gnme at home. Troy visits Providence again Sept. 24, 25, 27, und Providence gves to Worcester Sept. 28, 29,30: so you see there isno opening, and I don't think the game can possibly be played?” “ Will it stand as furfelted?” “That is something I can’t answer. The League must determine that. Troy has an ex- cuse for refusing to stay and play on the 17th, which was that they were due to play at home with Worcester on the 16th, and that they did not dare to risk the delay which is Hable to urise in the arrival of the Sound steamers at New York, and which would bave rendered it impos- sible for them to have reached home in time to play Worcester on the 18th. Troy claims they needed the lith to travel on in order to make sure of prunes home, and perhups they did. Seohow, it is not upon its face a case of * willful violation of the constitution or playing rules,’ and hence not a case for immediate forfeiture of membership, A question of fact remains to be determined—viz.: whether Troy could have Stayed over the 17th and reached home at noon of the 18th. If they could, their excuse is in- valid: if not, it is otherwise. This is for the League to determine:” . THAT CURIOUS DOUBLE PLAY. Tb the Editor of The Chicago Tribune, CHICAGO, May 19.—In the game yesterday be- tween the Cleveland and Chicago ball clubs, when Flint and Anson made the double play, putting out Hankinson, who was on first baso, and Glasscock, who had struck the third time, but was forced to run by the ball being missed by Flint, would Hankinson have beev out had Anson caught the ball (throwa by Flint) while ho was standing on the base (Hankinson being at the same time also standing on the base), in- stead of Anson first leaving the base before catching the ball; or, in other words, would Hankinson have been forced torun had Glasscock been put out by Anson’s catching of the ball while on his base? Wonld the result have been the same had the ball been struck to Quest, and he threw it to first? Then would the basé-runner have becn obliged to run to second if the striker was put out by Anson hold- ing the ball ou first? We have had quite adis- pate about the matter, many claiming that Han- Inson was obliged to run whether Glasscock ‘was put ut first or not. Please give us an answer in your Sunday column of ball news, and oblige yours respectfully. CLEVELAND. ANSWER.—Directly the third strike was missed, both Glasscock and Hankinson became runners, the latter belne forced off first base. Had Anson receiyed the ball with his foot touching the ‘base, that would have relieved Hankinson of the necessity of running, and he could have held the base; but Anson took especial pxins to ste away from the base when receiving the ball. then first touched Hankinson with the ball, and then touched the bag with his foot, putting out the striker. The triple py. in*Thursday’s game was similarly accomplished as to the sccond and third put-outa. The question as to Quest’s hand- ling of the bull may be answered by saying that the play would have been the sanio (in the case of Tuesday's double play), no matter who flelded the ball to Anson. BALL GOSSIP. ‘The attendance at the three Cleveland games in Chicago was 5,20. Bradley's decisions stirred up some bile in Cincinnati. In Chicago wo called it ignorance; down there they scored it as cussedness. ; Crane. the Buffalo second-baseman and Cap- tain, has been laid off on account of poor play- ing. Galvin will probably succeed to the Cap- taincy. Richmond, the pitcher of the Worcesters, will graduate from Brown University about the lat- ter part of this month, and preparatory thereto spends his evenings in diligent study. ‘The 5-5 Providence-Boston game of the 19th is @ nullity so far as the record of players is con- cerned. Under the League rules it is no more 8 game than as though it were never played. The Worcesters will make their six weeks’ ‘Western frip. beinning June 18, in the excur ity of Worcester,” taking their own rter with them, and making the car thelr hotel during thelr-absence. The cost of the trip will not ‘be increased by this plan, but * fort of the players’ will’ be joted.

REAL ESTATE. Effect ‘of High Cost of Building on Real Estate. ° Necessity for a Further Reduction in Materials and Labor. Prospects of a Summer Revival of Building. Principal Sales of Beal Estate nat o. Week. Building Permits—City Improvements— Miscellancous. One reason for the present quiet of real estate isthe subsidence of building, and with it the disappearance of a demand for real estate to be improved with houses and stores. There are a great many persons, the architects say, who are ready to build as soon a8 they can make ad- vantageous contracts. Perhaps a majority of them had their minds made up to build last fall, but the “ booms" frightened them. Iron, brick, lumber, stone, plumbing, all the mate- rials and labor, went up so high that they came to the conclusion they could make more by KEEPING THEIR MONEY than by spending it. . The downward movement in prices proves that they were right, When the reaction has gone a little further capitalists will be willing to disburse their funds again in put- ting up houses and business blocks, and the activity of building will give 2 new impetus ‘to the demand fur reul estate. The most stubborn price is now the price of labor. , The laborers ull demanded their share in the. wonderful rise in prices that began last yeur,and the bigher wages they asked for were gencrally accorded to them. ‘They are still striking for more, or holding out against a reduction. Their attitude is at pres- ent the most scrious obstacle in the WAY OF CHEAP BULLDING. The cut-stone mechanics inthis city are not now at work. They arc holding out for a large ad- vance. About April1 they demanded $3 a day, which the contractors thought the prospects of building warranted them in paying. The ad- vance was. therefore conceded. But it was found that at these wages contracts could not be made. Builders would not pay the pricos that had tobe asked for cut-stone work. The Tus building that had bean expected dia not comé® It was killed by-the too quick rise in -Wages and materials. Hence, there is no work for the cut-stone men at $3 a day, and there will be none till thoy abate their demands. Bricklayers’ wages now average about 33 a day. But only a few are employed. Those who have Jobs of patching and fixing up, of which thore are always an abundance about May 1, are at work, but THE REST ARE IDLE, with the exception of those busyon the now depots and new manufacturing establishments. in about two weeks the bricklayers will be short of work. Those who would build will not ‘do so if they have to pay $3 2 day ‘to brick- ayers. The situation of the carpenters is Just about the same. They are now getting 32.50 7 day, against $1.75 and {2a day lust year. Like the bricklayers, they are patching and repair- ing. and they, tao, will soon be out of work, and wil huive to choose between a pay in proportion tothe reaction in other prices ‘and no work. Prices of materials have HAD A TUMBLE, and have a further decline before them. South Side brick is about $7 a.thousand, and North Side brick can bo got ut $6.8 thousand. These figures do not interfere with building, and, if everything else was on the same level,-a vast number of new structures would at once be commenced. The stone combination have put down the price of rubble $1 x cord, to $7 a cord, and will probably.bave to make u further con- cession. Lumber is still too bigh for the Ce kinds. Low gradesare cheap enough. In hard- ware, nails and screws are nt a fair price. Lead must go lower, Thousands of tons are piled up waiting for buyers ut.their own price. Conocs- sions huve been made on plumbing materials. ancy hardware, which in some cases went up 100 per cent, is still 25 PER CENT TOO HIGH. Glass is falling, and-.concessions are inevitable, In sheet glass the situation is Just the reverse of what it was u few months ago. Then dealers were sending word to the manufacturers to “send nlong their goods for: Heaven's sake.” Now the munufacturers are importuning the dealers to send in thelr orders, But no orders come, Tiu and galvunized iron have gone down, like everything else. Mechanics are still stiff.

Instances could be multiplied of thezetfect upon capitalists of the rise in the cost of ‘building. One will be enough to represent all. A promi- nent firm of architects called two months ago for estimates for a residence that would Jast year have cost $50,000, The bids footed up about 70,000. THE OWNER WITHDREW. Recently the same plans were ngain figured on and it was found the work could be done for 000, The owner is becoming mollitied. but wants to wait tillhe can build for his original figure, $50,000, and his architect tells him that with the prevailing downward tendency of prices he will not have to wait long. With a renewal of building will come a new demand for real ‘estate, and the prospect that the summer will see lower prices of materials and labor is to-day the chief sign of hope for the real-estate deal- ers.

The jury in the SOUTH PARK CONDEMNATION case agreed on its verdict lust week. They found the vaiue of the E. % of the W. % of the N. E. fractional 14 of Sec. 24. 34, 14, to be the suin of $80,000, These procesdings were begun In 1873 for the condemnation of an elghty-acre tract, the W. ¥ of the N. E. fractional ¥ of Sec. }, 88, 14. After one trial was had, resulting ina verdict of, 5,760, the case was divided so us to have thaalues of the E. 4 and the W. % tried separately. The suit involving the W.% was then beard, resulting in a verdict of $3,750, ap- peuled to ‘the Supreme Court, where it was re- versed, and then retried last autumn by Judge Moran, when the value of the land had dwindled tw $1,900. The cuse involving the E.% of the tract was taken Lefore Judge Gary, and bas just been concluded.

Ex- Alderman Peter Shimp, who {s still remem- berad as one of our old-time reu!-estate dealers, and puolisher of a real-estate paper during the War, is again inthe field after eight years’ of disability from sickness. He has opened an office at No. 8210 State street (new number), and rumises that it will not be his fault if business not xgain as brisk with hin: a3 it used to be. Nutwithstanding the revival.of REAL ESTATE IN BOSTON 2 the Commercial Bulletin of that city complains that in many cases the assessed valuations are higher than the market value. It calls atten- tion to a sale ut auction of twenty-four lots of real estute beionging to the late Thomas Brew- er, located mainly on Washington, near Castle strect. The prices realized were below the As- sessors’ valuation of last year. The property sold may be considered a fair representative of the average reul estate as to value, taking the clty asa whole. The first lot sold, having a frontuge of forty-five fect on Washington street, from Indiana piece to Obio place, with a depth of about ocighty feet, brought but $33,500. It was assessed last yeur for over $10,000. Thig sale was characteristic of the whole, in regard to price compured with valuation. “BATURDAY’S TRANSFERS. ‘The followiog: instruments were filed for rec- ord Saturday, May city PROPERTY.
