The Senators Defeat the New York Giants—Other Games. BULLYING ON THE BALL FIELD — DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT OF CAPTAIN EWING—PHIL BAKER'S FIRMNESS — HOW THE WASHINGTONS EARNED THEIR VICTORY. The game of ball yesterday between the Senators and the Giants was a model in some ways, and far from that standard in others. So far as the fact that the home team won by the score of 5 to 1 is concerned it was all right, also so far as the fielding and general play is regarded it was absolutely perfect, but it was marred by one incident that was but the cul- mination of a series of disagreeable things. This was the disgracefal, outrageous conduct of catcher Ewing throughout the game, his dis- gusting climax of impudence and disregard of the rules of base ball and of decency in the eighth inning. Fortunately the prompt and praiseworthy manner in which umpire Baker handled the recreant was some satisfaction to respectable ple, The umpire had given a Recision neat Ewing was called out at first in an exciting pf telling moment, and the naturally sarcastic lines of the Giant bully’s face grew perfect in their contempt as he proceeded to argue. Baker waved him off and ordered the game to proceed. When the third man of the inning was put ont, and Ewing was resuming his mat- tress, he began again to air his opinions, inter- larding them with such langu: as would best befit a prize ring. Baker told him to stop or he should fine him, but this only stirred E i to @ more accomplished round of profanity, and wnen he had reached the point of calling Mr. Baker—who had umpired a really good game—“a —— —— ‘rotten robber.” he fined him $25. In most cases fining has the result of silencing loud-mouthed players, but unfortunately in Ewing's case all his ines are ae by his club, and so the process has but ittle effect on hi Yesterday the fine only moved him to worse impudence, and in another minute plucky Mr. Baker had ordered him to leave the e. The champion kicker sub- mitted to the inevitable with bad grace, and, after some miuutes of sullen slouching about, transferred his paraphernalia to Brown and sulked on the bench during the remainder of the game, while the crowd yelled in derision. A FINE PLAYER, BUT— There is no doubt that Ewing is almost the peer of ali baseball players, but he has a woe- ful case of “big-head,” and he is so thoroughly imbued with a conscionsness of his own import- ance, knowledge and ability, that he never fails to makes himself obnoxious to both umpires and audiences. He kicks at everything, and has not the grace to submit to decisions and tries to bully. He struck the wrong sort of material yesterday. Inasmuch as this incident is but a repetition of one that occupred here earlier in the season, the folks of Washington are beginning to wonder when this man, despite his un- doubted ability as a baseball player, will be so trained as to render him less of a nuisance. In the interests of the national game isn’t it about time that the New York management should check Ewing’s disgraceful conduct, in- stead of upholding him in it? THE GAME. But to resume. The opposing batteries were O'Day and Ewing and Ferson and Mack, and the ex-Senator was pretty well received by his old comrades, while the young man from Man- chester was invincible. There was not an error made, both men receiving perfect sup- port. The home team had the game won almost from the start, principally on account of O’Day’s wild pitching. He gave four bases on balls, three of which produced runs. When he was not wild he was batted, and in so scien- tific a manner that there was not a hit thrown away. The visitors would have been shut out but fora bit of wild work of Ferson’s in the fifth, but the grand pitching he did in other in- teresting places compensated for this, THE RUNS. ‘Two bases on balls, Sam Wise’s great steal of third and Mack’s single drive through O’Day netted two runs in the seéond inning. Carney’s two bagger landed Mack on third, but Ferson could not bring him in. This won the game, for New York never touched the lead. In the fifth,after Arthur Irwin had made a remarkable stop of a seeming safe one from Ward, and brother John had caught a difficult fly two- thirds to the fence, O’Rourke and Whitney made single hits. O’Day should have been an easy out, but after getting two strikes on him Ferson hit him with the ball and filled the bases. Unfortunately enough he forced ina run in the next minute by hitting Gore, and most of the spectotors looked to see the game lost. But Richardson could not get the ball past Fearson, and went out at first. The home team immediately made up the difference in the sixth by scoring one on Wilmot’s base on balls and steal of second, Beecher’s sacrifice and Wise’s long flyout to Gore. The Giants went out in order in their next two innings. In the eighth the home team increased their lead by making a tally on Hoy’s hit, Wilmot’s sacrifice and Beecher’s clean hit.’ In this inning Wise flied straight to Whitney and Beecher was caught before he could get back to first. In their half the Giants made a struggle to score, but failed. O'Day flied to Hoy, and Gore hit saf A passed ball sent him to second and Richardson went to first on balls. It looked pretty biue for Washington when Ewing went to the plate, but his ball bounded to Arthur Irwin and he was called out at first. This was the decision on which he kicked and was fined and expelled. It was a very close decision, but did not justify such behavior. Connor made a great effort to seore the men on second and third, and lifted a jong one into right field that Beecher eaptured. Another run in the ninth gave Washington a nice lead and asure victory. Arthur Irwin found one of Hank’s curves with the end of the bat and reached third before the ball could be re- turned from left center. Brother John flied out, but Mack landed one in about the same place as his captain and the latter scored, Con- nie was thrown out in trying to make third. In the last half, with one out, Lyons hit into right field, the ball failing safely, because of a mis- understanding between Hoy and Beecher. The next two men, however, were easily retired. Washington made 6 hits and 0 errors and so did New York. OTHER GAMES. Indianapolis had the luck to beat Cleveland, 5 to 1, on account of very ineffective pitching. Graber and Zimmer and Getzein and Buckley were the batteries. The Infants made 4 hits and 2 errors and the Hoosiers 13 hits and 2 errors. 3 i Chicago took it easy with Pittsburg, and the score was 5 tol in favor of Anson, The bat- teries were Staley and Miller aud ‘Tener and Farrell. Chicago made 8 hits and 0 errors and Pittsburg 4 hits and 3 errors. Boston shut out the Phillies with scarcely an effort, 13 to 0. Radbourn and Bennett, and Gleason and Schriver were the batteries. Glea- son was frightfuliy wild and lost the game on that account, giving 10 bases on balls, hitting one man and making four wild pitches. Bos- ton made 11 hits and 2 errors, and Philadelphia 6 hits and 4 errors. ASSOCIATION GAMES, At Cincinnati—Columbus, 4; Cincinnati, 3. At Baltimore—Bualtimore, 5; Kansas City, 2 ON THE SHORT BOUND. O'Day is no terror. New York should refuse to pay any more of Ewing’s fines, and that might bring him to time. Oddly enough three of the four league games played yesterday resulted in the score of 5 to 1. Yesterday's game was replete with brilliant plays on both sides. Connor, Whitney, Ward, end Richardson for the visitors and Wilmot, the Irwins, and Mack for the home team won lots of applause.

One hun- dred and twent; THE CERNEAU CONTROVERSY. ‘What Grand Commander Gorgas Says— Members of the Grand Lodge Here. body, has been interviewed bya representa tive of the Baltimore American. He denies that his organization has any fraternal rela~ tions whatever with the Grand orient of France, as-is alleged by Harrison Dingman, grand master of the Grand lodge of the District of Columbia, in a recent edict prohibiting any relations with the members of the Gorgas Cerneau body. Gorgas states that when in Paris in April, 1888, he had an interview with the “council of deliberation” of the Grand orient of France at an informal meeting, not official, called at his request, on matters relating solely to the history of Scot- tish Rite Masonry and the connection of Joseph Cerneau, its founder in this country, with the parent body in'France during the period be- poste be and 1820, and also during a later Tio Pe. Gorgas says that since his return from Europe in May, 1888, no communication or correspondence of any kind has beeng held by his body with the Grand orient of France, as all his relations with the Grand orient ended with his visitin 1888, Prof. Alpha O. Munroe,a native of Edinburgh, Scotland, and resident of Paris, was commissioned by Dr. Gorgas when in Paris to continue the investigations into the history of Scottish Rite Masonry, and this is the only duty that gentleman is required to form as the representative of the *‘Cerneau Boay" of this country. Without such a com- mission Prof. Munroe could not have access to the archives of the Grand orient of France. DE, GORGAS ON GRAND MASTER DINGMAN. Dr. Georgas is further credited with saying that “Harrison Dingman, the grand master of the Grand lodge of the District of Columbia, was for many years and until quite recently a member of the ‘Cerneau body’ and commander- in-chief of one of its consistories in Washington city. When Mr. Dingman became a candidate for the office of grand master of the Grand lodge of the District he withdrew from the “Cerneau body,’ his alleged reason for so doing being that his chances tor election would be improved, owing to the opposition of the mem- bers of a rival Scottish Rite body, of which he is now a member. Mr. Dingman’s recent edict against the ‘Cerneau body’ is based upon state- ments made in a printed letter by an ex- pelled member of that body and who is an inti- mate friend of Mr. Dingman.” THE DISTRICT SIDE OF THE DISPUTE. It is stated by members of the Grand lodge of the District that there is documentary proof showing that Dr. Gorgas did establish fraternal relations with the Grand orient of France, as charged in the edict of the grand master. That for this reasoa many members of the Cerneau body in this city withdrew from the organiza- tion, and that among this number was Mr. Dingman. As stated in the edict issued by the grand master of the District the grand orient of France does not acknowledge the ex- istence of God, and on this ground all the Ma- sonic bodies in this country, as well as in all English-speaking countries, have refused to hold relations with the Grand orient of France. This action on the part of the Masonic bodies of this country was taken years ago and the edict of the Grand lodge of the District was issued in accordance therewith. pamela 2 WASHINGTON COUNTY. What is Going On in Hagerstown and Vicinity. Correspondence of Tr EVENING STAR. Hacerstown, July 30, 1889. The readers of Tue Star doubtless will re- member the mysterious case of the “baby in the basket” which caused so much talk here as well as newspaper comment, This all grew out of a party—unknown at the time—boarding atrain at the Baltimore and Qhio depot in Washington with a baby in a basket, which he brought to Hagerstown, and, under the cover of darkness, some six months ago, deposited the baby and basket on the steps of the orphans’ home in this city. Some days after Charles Seibert, a married man of good family connection, was arrested for the offense and later on was convicted in court here under an old Maryland law upon a charge of an assault upon the baby. Seibert was sentenced to five months in jail and to pay a fine of $100, He never revealed the parentage of the child or made any explanation of his action, Yeuter- day he finished his term of sentence, paid the fine and was released from jail. David C. Herbert, who was yesterday flogged for wife-beating, is a well-known cattle dealer, aman of family and means and is connected with some of the best Maryland families. The fifteen lashes were given in the jail building. A single strap, 114 inches wide’ at one end, tapering to an eighth of an inch at the other, was used. It was fastened to a handle of wood 1 foot long. The strokes were heavilg laid on and Herbe-t was badly punished, each stroke causing the lash to cut and lacerato the pris- oner’s body, He suffered great agony during the administration of the whipping, - and, although he is a strong, large and robust man, he cried aloud as each succeeding stroke fell upon his bleeding body. The affair has occa- sioned considerable comment and there is a great diversity of opinion as to the justness of the law providing such punishment, Among the numerous fruits cultivated and porn this county to a large extent for mar- ‘et and wine purposes is the grape. The out- look just now for a good crop this season is rather unfavorable. Reports show that the crop has been seriously affected with mildew caused by the continued wet weather, and, when rain has not fallen, the intense humidity of the atmosphere, The American base ball elub of Washington IN will play two games with the home club in this city on Wednesday and Thursday.
