Notwithstanding the fact that it began raining early in the afternoon, and the chances for a game gradually waned, nearly 2,000 enthusiastic people gathered in the park in hopes that the clouds would break away. Manager Gaffney stood at the main entrance, and as each Person passed through the turnstile, handed him a rain check, giving admission to-day, in case it should be necessary to e the e. Just before the hour for calling play arrived the rain came down in torrents, Mooding the field and spectators, and at (etre 4 it was announced that there would be no game.

The game between Chicago and Pittsburg was Postponed. The New Yorks won their victory by a chance misplay on the part of their competitors, who lost with credit, The Philadelphias scored in the first, sixth and seventh innings, The Giants bad made but one run up to the seventh inning, Richardson the first man at the bat struck Fogarty at third, whicn was as good as a three bagger, for Fogarty threw it into the grand stand instead of the baseman’s hands, This unfortun- ately was the death-knell of the Philadelphias, for had Richardson ‘been retired no runs would then have been scored, for the next two men were Put gue before reaching frst base; McCarthy, cap- ured Keefe’s fly, but it let In Richardson.

Kdmond Mallett, presided over the meeting, with Francis J. Byrne as secretary. Mr. Milton E. Smith made the open- ing address, He said that the tie which unites all humanity in an universal brotherhood inspires all men to sympathize with their suffering brother, {it matters not what their race, creed or condition. ‘The coercion bill strikes such a fatal blow at the very essence of those principles of civil liberty which we, in our government, 80 earnestly em- phasize, that all of us shrink in horror from it. If there is one form of our government which com- mends itself to men of hearts and noble and unprejudiced minds it that which permits a man who is arrested for a criminal offense to be tried by a jury of bis fellow-countrymen, It Was a8 mich {n support of this right as of any other that our forefathers fought against the rule of England over one ht years as Mr. Smith was frequently interrupted y loud bursts of applause from his audience. Continuing, he arraigned in bitter terms the pres- ent administration in Engiand for the unjust and oppressive measures it hag endeavored to force upon the Irish. “The night of [reland’s woe,” he sald, “has been $0 long, and so dark, that the world marvels at her patience.” The next speaker was Dr. A. J. Faust, of the Treasury Department. He spoke in quiet and measured termsof the condition of Ireland. He sald that Englishmen never can and never will under- stand and apprectate the Irish, and the reason is that the leading characteristicof the English mind isinsularity or philistinism, as defined by Matthew Arnold. Simply, the man’ who 1s inaccessible to ideas. “He 1s so conditioned,” sala the speaker, in conclusion, “that he can see nothing in the future except that which is formed by the past.” Addresses were also made by the Rev.
