They nex: play at Providence and Boston, and’ :then return home to resume play on the 10th of. August. Cleveland and ‘Providence still stand & ‘tle for second place in gameg won, though Cleveland, having lost two less, is fairly en- titled to rank next to the head. Boston's vic- tories over Buffalo and Cincinnati have helped “her squarely into fourth place, the best she has held since the geason began; and Worcester has. + «dropped back to fifth, being two games abead of Troy, which inturn is two beyond Buffalo; so that the result as ‘to the rear positions is by no ‘means settled yet.

The Clipper bas this to say concerning the work done by the different League pitchers up to the date named: - The League pitchers’ averages up to July 17 inelusive—the first half of the League season— that the most. effective Pitching of the senson thus far has been that of Bradley, of the Providence Club, Goldsmith being second, Cor- coran third, and Ward fourth; the Providence and Chicago Clubs, therefore, having the best pitchers. in the League. McCormick, of the Slevelands, stands fifth; Richmond, of the Wor- ‘sixth: White, of the ‘Cincinnatis, seventh; and Bond, of the Bostons, eighth; ‘Welch, of the Troy team, stands ninth; Galvin, of the Buffalo, tenth; Foley, of the Bostons, eleventh: and Purcell, of the Cincinnatis, last. ‘The pitchers who have been released are not 1n- cluded in the record. The table giving the figures isas follows: at ‘erage of earned runs scored off his itching was no less than6.60 in the four games e pitched in, In the average of fewest base- hits off the pitching, Corcoran leads, with Gold- smith second, and Bradley third, thus showing better tield support by the Chicago team than by that of Providence. CHICAGO VS. WORCESTER. Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. ‘Worcester, Mass., July 24.—Worcoster, after eignt defeats by Chicago, picked up to-duy’s game by the right end. Bushong,' after a Jong Yaéation, started as the Worcester catcher, but split htshand in the third inning, and Bennett was put in, Anson's protest to the contrary not- withstanding. : The Worvestors, 28 usual, failed to hit Corcoran frequently, but, when good at - . the bat, were “ very, Very good,” and extra bags, especialy by Irwin, were tellingly numerous, while two poor throws by Burns, Williamson's passed ball, and « ‘gift of a base on balls, Chi- cages only lapses from a perfect game, all vaelped in swelling th8 Worcester score, A bunch of bits by Dalrymple, Kelly, and Avson earned two rans for the visitors, and Cream- -er’s faulty throwing and a passed ball made “the other a gift.

Public inter- est never fuils to be excited by tho kind of ball- playing the White Stockings are doing. The “indifference” of Jones about playing in Boston bas its causes which were not told. Itis no secret that the Bostou Club owes its players for a lurge ebare of their sulary for the seuson “as far as advanced. - Foley of the same Club has been raising a breeze about his ‘back pay.” ‘The fact that players have no protection against a Club holding back their saleries is a disgrace to the League. If thoy attempt to collect what is due them they are mange kicked out, It ig but fair to Joues that ‘bis friends here and in Cincinnati ought to know both sides of the story. if the Buston Club cannot pay him they ought to release bim honorably. The Troy Times tells this story as illustrative of the justice and fairness whicb characterize Anson’s management of the Chicago team: “Anson fined himself $5 during the recent visit of the Chicagos to this city. He was put out while running to one of the bases, and when. he returned to the players’ bench one of his asso- . lates remarked that he would bave been safo if he had run a little faster. ‘Yes,’ said another, ‘if ighad been one of us we would have been fined.’ ‘Well,’ said Anson. ‘I Sue myself $5,and Iwant some of you fellows to see that I pay it without kicking.’ The fine will be paid, for An- gon has ‘on several occasions imposed ‘a similar penalty upon -himself, and Presiderit Hulbert says it has seers been collected. That Anson is an excellent Captainand a strict disciplinarian is clearly demonstrated by the obedience ren- dered him by his, men and tho success his Club has achieved thus far this season.” Half the third month of the League season has ended. and we may: say half of the Leacue season, "and an analysis of the play hitherto shown by the eight tégms gives such 2 decidedly winning lead to Chicago that their ultimate suc- cess may be re; ied as a foregone conclusion, the only interest now remaining in the contest for the pilosa being that referring to the plac- ing of the second and third teams in the race. The three defeats sustained by the Chicago Club thus farin July may justly be ied as cx- ceptional affairs, peculiar to the customary un- certainties of the zame, and not as showing any weakening of the team or of a falling off in the play of one or more of the prominent pluyers, Such us the catchers and pitohers. In theseduys of better-trained professional stock-company teams it is almost impossible to get together a nine which would be invincible. In 1869, when the old Cincinnati team recyrded its un- equaled season of uninterrupted freedom from defeat—ouly x drawn match, prevented a suc- cession of Victories from the sturt to the finish— it encountered nines composed mostly of crude or unretiable material in the professionul class, and unpracticed nines in the amateur. Against these the Cincinnatis presented the best-trained rofessional team then known to the fraternity. Now we have half a dozen just as well mavayed as the Cincinnatis of 169 were, and hence the task ot going throuch a season now without a defeat is almost impossible. The Chicago term of 1690 has unquestonubly shown itself to be the: strongest team that hus ever competed for the League championship, and its success against such strong opponents aS those of Providence, Cleveland, Worcester, Troy, and Boston affords prety, proof of the. fact. “As we said be- fore, leaving Chicago as the coming champions, the question now is who will be secund in the race.—Clipper. 3 ‘To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune. CHICAGO, July 23.—Will you be so kind asto answer the following. and ‘settle a bet between Ajand B? A says to B: “How do you. want to bet on to-day’s gumes?” This was on Wedncs- day. July 21. B stys: “How dv. you want to bet?” “A said he would take Cleveland, Chicago, Boston, and Providence. ‘All right.” says “thet will give me Buffalo against Boston, as per the regular schedule games, Buffalo is the Bisce 1 expect to win, if at.all, or possibly ut Worcester.” These were the games to have been played Wednesday, July 21, but justend of Buffalo and Ciociunati playing, us per schedule, and the way that we bet, they played just the reverse. Now A claims he wius, as the two games played July 22 were the games which ought to have beon played on the previous day. Belaims that A docs not win, as the two clubs played right the reverse on the day the bet was made, and not according to.schedule. Please state your answer, yes or no, as you decide, and greatly oblige A Supscriver, ANSWER—The case is not stated very clear) a8 to the understanding which prevailed, but it would appear that the schedule cut no figure in the wager, and that A therefore wins. That neither party had the scbedule right is evident from the fact that the schedule provided for no game anywhere on the 22d of July, but provided that Buffalo and Cincinnati should play in Boston and Providence, respectively, July 21, 23, and 24. It appears. however, that the four clubs agreed | to play postponed games on the 2st, and to take the three following daysfor their regular games. Awins. KNIGHTS-TEMPLAR. A Grand Program for Their Enter- tainment—An Appeal, to the Gen- erosity of Our Citizens. ‘The preparations for the Knights-Templar Triennial Conclave, commencing Aug. 1%, are rapidly going forward, and the indica- tions are that it will bring more strangers to the city than were ever here before at any one time. The Committee having in charge the ar- rangements have so far raised about $40,000 toward the expenses of the gathering. and ealeulate that about $85,000 more will be needed. ‘They have also arranged the pro- gram of exercises, and. prepared an address to. the public embodying it, which is given below: Carcaco, July 25.—To the People of Chicago: The Triennial Committee of Knights-Templar lesire to say that you will be immediately called upon by the Finance Committee and asked to contribute money towards defraying tho ox. pense incident to the entertainment of Templar guests and strangers who will be present in the City of Chicago Aug. 16, 17, 18, and 19 next. We have faith in the generosity’ of the people of Chicago. We delieve in'thelr hospitality, and fecl confident that no oue will desire us to be nixgardly in our plans of entertainment. We can use advantageously $125,000. If expended, it will be in Chicago alone. Hence, while the money you give will be esteemed us a personal donation; it will in fact be ouly an exchange. While we depend wholly upon your generosity as citizens of Chicayo, and know that the mere roatier of dollars and cents’ will not influence you where your hospitality is concerned, yet for Your information we aunounce that one of tho most reliable statisticians in Chicago hus given it-as bis opinion that those who will visit us will expend directly and epee $4,800,000 in our city in four days. The amount which we say can be advantageously used is only 244 per cent of this total. “While it may be urged that these strangers reccive an immedinte personui benetit for the outlay or they. would not. disburse it, yet the fact is exhibited that they. will expend tho. amount here.’ Our_ entertain- ment of these guests should be commensurate with the magnitude of the number preseut and the rurity of such events. The Triennial Con- chive of the Grand Encampment was held in Chicago twenty-one years uo, and the_twenty- first ‘Friennial Conclave of the Grand Encamp- ment will occur in August, bringing to our city represeatative Templar citizens from every Stute in the Union, Canada, and abroad.

Se EEE GOLD DISCOVERIES, New Yors, July, 24.—The excitement. in the gold region of Fulton and Hamilton Counties, New York, is said to be becoming quite high. Several veins have been found that bromise well, and samples have assayed $15 per ton. A company-at Wellstown is said to be realizing $150 per ton, and “belief” is entertained that $1,000-ton takes are to be found. The Albany Argus says: “There isno doubt that gold abounds throughout that region in more than, paying quantities, and perhaps at no distant day it will beeazer- ly sought by miners, speculators, and ad- venturers, and. the wild scenes of Western mining life will be transported to the midst of civilization. Ais sa-1 hefore, claims are being made nearly every day, and many of the claimants do not trouble themselves with such a small’ inatter as waiting until they have madea discovery of anything, but go atit wholesale, and file all the claims they can, trusting to Inck in finding a vein ‘after- ward. Thus, ouf of numerous claims al- ready filed, there'are very few of any value, and these few really promise rich rewards for their owners.” MORMON CELEBRATION, Satur Lake Ciry, Utah, July. 24—The Mormons celebrated their first entrance into this valley thirty-three years ago to-day with tinusual elaborateness.
