How the Senators Were Beaten by the Philadelphia Team. EBRIGHT'S COSTLY NERVOUSNESS LOST THE GAME— A GOOD CATCHER NEVERTHELESS—KEEFE’S EF- FECTIVENESS—GOOD GENERAL PLAYING OF THE WASHINGTONS — OTHER @AMES YESTERDAY. There was a game of base ball yesterday af- ternoon at Capitol park in the presence of 3,360 persons, between the Washington and Philadelphia league clubs. To be brief and to the point, the visitors won, 8 to 4; to be explan- atory, they did it on account of Ebright’s nervousness; to be consolatory, the home team batted hardest, but was outlucked; but to be brutally frank, they were outplayed. Both teams faced the crowd—which was packed into every possible place and overflowed into the grounds—with a sprightliness form of confi- dence, but the men from Philadelphia seemed to have just a little more spring. and to be in the very pink of condition and spirits. There was a little disappointment expressed as the turnstile kept up its clicking and the in- comers, getting their score cards, saw that the battery of the day for Washington was Keefe and Ebright, pitted against Buffinton and Clements; this disappointment increased and gave place to a much stronger feeling when, in the second inning Keefe sent two men to bases, and Ebright losing his head and heart, muffed a couple of balls thrown at him to shut runners off at the plate. Inasmuch as it was his first league game. playing against one of the strongest teams in the country. there was considerable excuse for his getting rat- tled. The fault was not so much his as that of some one else in putting him there. Yet he would have to have a first game sometime and it might just as well be at the ond these two errors and a ‘trike he caughtas pretty a game it as conld be wished. Even with the sting of disappointment bitter within him he went to the bat in the latter half of the fatal inning and made a clean base hit. This showed that his fault was not due to poor quality, but to a species of fright that is not remarkable when one considers that a veteran leaguer was oe down the alley intent on touching the plate, CONSIDERING EVERYTHING Ebright certainly does not deserve the “roast- ing” that be has been given by many who saw the game, who groaned that Mack would have done better. Undoubtedly the veteran would, but it should be remembered that Buffington and Clements are the best battery that Phila- delphia possess, while O'Day and Mack are the best here. The playing of Ebright with Keefe yesterday was therefore a good piece of judg- ment on the part of Manager Morrill, who rec- zed that it is better to sacrifice a chance game in order to put the best battery against a poorer battery of the opponents, and thus have a good chance for a game, POINTS OF THE GAME. Buffinton was very effective at critical mo- ments, with eager Senators on third waiting for half a chance to score. Although he was hit hard he kept the hits pretty well scattered. and, as a result, five Statesmen were left on third, three on second and two on first. He also struck out six men and gave but three bases on balls, Keefe’s work was, in itself, about as good, except that the bares he gave in the second inning materially helped to lose the game. Delebanty batted the ball as though he in- tends to rival Anson, making a double anda three-bagger. Hoy made three singles, Wil- mot a triple and a single, Mulvey secured a couple of singles, while Fogarty and Keefe each a three-base hit. Ahit by Hoy, another by Wilmot, a passed ball, and ‘Clements’ error gave a run in the first inning and the crowd felt good, But five | scores for the visitors in the second changed th ir mood, two bases on balls, a hit, an error orrill, Ebright’s nervous muffs, and Dele- 's two-bagger doing the business, THE UMPIRE WAS BIGAT. The Philadelphians increased their lead in the fifth by one run. Fogarty found the ball for three bases and came in on Thompson's sacrifice to Hoy. The ball was quickly re- turned to the plate and Ebright almost touched the runner, but failed by a very few inches. Umpire Fessenden’s quick eve caught the dif- ference and declared Fo; rfto the tonishment of the crowd, h hissed and groaned. This was a mistake, as the decision was eminently fair and right. Inthe same in- ning Keefe also made a three-bagger and scored on Hoy’s sacritice. Inthe sixth Phila- delphia made two runs. With two out and a man on first, Delehanty hit for three bases, and then Morrill threw Fogarty’s ball badly to y. after making a beautiful stop, giving runner a base and thewide a score. The home team, playing a fine up-hill game, scored vice in the eighth, Wise hitting safely, Myers going to first on balls, Morrill and Shoch sac- rificing, with Delehanty’s error. - This was the game, and the defeat. Praise should be given to Myers for his work. H 5 put outs and 6 assists.

HUNTING FOR CLUES—EVIDENCES THAT MORE THAN ONE PERSON WAS ENGAGED IN CON- CEALING THE BODY—THE WAGON TRACKS, THE FOOT-PRINTS, AND THE MENDED SHOES, Little more has been learned of the murder of the young colored woman whose body was found in the woods beyond Benning Monday afternoon than was published in yesterday's Stan. The investigations by the police seem 8o far to have only added to the mystery. As published in Tux Star the body was found on the farm of James Wright, on the Sheriff road, just beyond the District line. It was dicov- ered Monday afternoon by two children of Mrs. Windsor, who lives only a few hundred yards from the place. The children, a girl anda boy, aged respectively fourteen and ten years, were walking through the woods gathering wild flowers and enjoying their Easter holiday. THE STARTLED CHILDREN. The little boy was startled by seeing the dead woman's head. He called to his sister, and the two children had full view of the corpse, which was lying in a little depression or gully. Then the children, badly frightened, ran home and told their mother what they had seen. The news spread through the county rapidly, and it was not long before a large crowd had assembled in the thickets to get a look at the body. The colored people seemed particularly interested in the matter, and many of them came a long distance. WHERE THE BODY WAS FOUND. The spot where the body was found is about 100 yards from the Sheriff road. There isa narrow path leading from the road through the thickets to the washout, where the body was thrown. The bottom of this hole, or gully, in which the corpse lay is covered with grass and moss. and about the banks are wild flowers. There are small pools of water about the woods and there was two or three inches in this depression. The body lay face down- ward with the feet slightly elevated, At the bottom of the steep bank eG stone, but if there had been any blood on it the heavy rains Saturday night had washed it away, When several farmers in that locality heard of the story told by the children they visited the woods and found the body in the position described, They removed the body from the wet place where it lay and carried it to the bank above. THE CORONER'S INVESTIGATION. Word was sent to Sheriff Darnall at Bladens- burg, but that officer was in Baltimore, where he had gone with some prisoners to the peni- tentiary. The county coroner, Dr. D. T. Sher- iff, was notified, and went at once to where the Lody was found. Dr. Lewis, of Bladensburg, was also there and together they made a care- ful examination of the corpse.» They found that the skull had been crushed in with some heavy instrument, and that the face was also cut. From the condition of her clothes it was concluded that she had been carried, and not dragged, through the woods from the Sheriff road, and thrown headlong down the bauk. FOOT-PRINTS AND WAGON TRACKS. There were indistinct foot-prints leading along the narrow path, and on the road could be seen the tracks made by wagon wheels where the vehicle had been driven from towards Benning and turned around. From the place chosen for concealing the body it is thought that the spot was visited and selected in the daytime. as a better hiding place could not have been found in that locality. In that event the victim must have been murdered and kept in a house for some time before her body was disposed of. It is thought more than one person Was engaged in concealing the corpse, ecause it would have been adifticult task for one person to have carried the body through the thick undergrowth along the path that leads to the spot. As published yesterday there was no testi- mony given at the inquest that threw any further light upon the erime. When Sheriff Darnall returned the inquest had been held, and the body had been taken to Bladensburg. That officer took charge of the woman's clothing, and is holding them for identification. HUNTING FOR CLUES. The sheriff and ‘Detective Raff scoured that part of the country yesterday, but returned last night without having obtained a single clue either to the identity of the victim or of her murd 8. Mrs. Hess, of the Hotel de Benning, told the officers that she remembered having seen a woman answering the description of the mur- dered woman standing near the hotel Friday night. The woman she stated wore a black dress with a velvet front, such as was worn by the murdered woman, but she had on a felt hat instead of a straw hat, such as was found on the murdered woman's head. The officers soon abandoned this as a clue, and pursued their investigation further in the country, VISITING SHOEMAKER'S sHoPs, Every shoemaker’s shop was visited in the hope of getting some information that would lead to the identification of the murdered woman, As statedin Tar Star the woman's shoes bore evidences of having been recently mende The ‘3 thought at one time that they were on the tri of the woman, but when they huated the clue down they found the young woman, supposed to have been the victim, nd well ‘They found an old i colored shoemaker named Jobn Fraucis, who felt sure that he could identify the body. He was taken to Bladens- burg, and the body was taken from the grave about sundown, but he failed to identify it, r 4 but little from its con- dition when first found. One side of the face was badly distigured, which the doctors think was done by minks or coons while the body was in the woods, THE MURDERED WOMAN. The body found is that of a light mulatto her good looking, from twenty-one y-five years old, 5 fect 6 inches in height, with bushy thick hair. large white teeth and short and th ose, She weighed in the neighborhood ot 1: pean She was attired in a dress of black diagonal goods, the front k brocade velvet, basque plain, and black ik rsey with front trimmed with 1g inch worsted braid with beaded edge.
