WON IN THE NINTH. The Senators Again Defeat the Hoo- siers—Other Games. The Senators indulged in some hard slug- ig yesterday at the expense of the Hoosiers and pulled out of a decidedly small aperture by scoring four runs in the ninth. The score was 8to7. Every man on the Washingtons hit safely, and all but one of their opponents followed suit.

LLY wi gr falls Genter gave the visitors a lead of two runs, which they held until the fourth, when the other side pulled ahead a point by scoring three after two men were out on hits by Bassett, Denny and Boyle, errors by Irvin and Wise and Seery's base on balls, They kept it up for the next two innings, scoringone ineach. In the fifth MeGeachy’s two-bagger and Bassett’s single gave an earned run, and in the sixth Glass- cock hit safelyand went home on Denny's sacrifice and Daily's hit. This ended the run getting for the Hoosiers and the ensuing three innings they were retired with blanks. WINNING THE GAME. The Senators, after failing to tally from the third to the eighth, inclusive, made connection with the ball in the ninth and earned the vic- tory. John Irwin began with asingle, went abead on Denny’s error on Daly's drive, and scored on Hi k’s fine hit along the left foul line. Carney had flied out, and Wise struck out. Hoy succeeded in bunting safely and filled the bases. Then Wilmot came up after having been retired without a hit previously. ‘Two runs we eeded to tie and three to win, with one out. Walter was equal to the occasion, and the bail he hit flew out into the left center for a single, bringing in two runs and tieing the score. ‘Then Mack drove one through Glass- cock and filled the bases once more. Clarke was the next man to save the day and his ball went smashing over to Denny at a terrific rate, Jeremiah could not handle it. It was prac- tically a safe hit and Denny could not be scored an error on his juggle. At any rate Hoy was cutting for home, Wilmot sliding for third. and Clarke was diving for first. All of them reached their goals, and Hoy’s run ended the game in favor of the tail-enders, Washington made 18 hits and 6 errors and Indianapolis 13 hits and 4 errors. OTHER GAMzs. Boston lost the lead by dropping a game to Pittsburg—9 to0. Galvin and Miller and Da- ley, Radbourne, Ganzel and Kelly were the batteries. Galvin’s work was magnificent and his support was perfect. After seven runs had been scored off Daley in four innings Rad- bourne took his place, but the game was lost. Boston made 5 hits and 4 errors and Pittsburg 9 hits and no errors. York changed places with Boston by de- ing Cleveland again—13 to4. The batte- were Beatin and Sutcliffe and Crane and Ewing. The Giants made 17 hits and 2 errors and the Infants 9 hits and 3 errors, The Phillies made three runs in the ninth and thereby won from Chicago by the store of 6 to 3, Sanders and Schriver and Dwyer and Farrell weve in the points, Philadelphia made 11 hits and 2 errors and Chicago 7 hits and 3 errors, Baieutwoop Races ‘Thursday, ‘August 15, 3 p.m. ALL azz Isvitep to inspect their improved methods of doing work.

Haddock gave 5 bases on balls and struck out 4 men, as against 1 base on balls and 1 strike- out by Boyle. Haddock hit 1 man and made a wild pitch. The Hoosiers by losing to the Senators changed places with Pittsburg. Hanlon has been appointed manager and captain of the Pittsburg team, Dunlap having resigned. Dunlap is after his release with a sharp stick. et hold of the reins was a brief epi- sode. The Washington Light Infantry team de- feated the Columbia Athletic Club’ niue yester- day by the score of 15 to 3. Ten of the soldiers’ runs were made in the first inning. ‘The bat- teries were Wise and White for the Infantry and Sprigman and Wells for the Columbias. Messrs. Robert Larner of the Sporting Life and Chas, Loeffler of the Infantry acted as um- pires. A long wait was enforced on the teams and the audienge early in the game by the losa of both of the balls over the grand stand. ‘There were ouly two, anda search expedition had to be sent out to penetrate into the heart of Swampoodle and rescue the spheres from the clutches of the hoodiums who fad come to the conclusion that a $1.50 ball was worth more than a seat at an amateur game. But one ball was recovered. The same teums will play again on the 22d and on Friday of this week fantry team will play the Marion Rifles, Pitcher Keefe was at Mr. Hewett’s office this morning, looking much better. His head, he says, is feeling all right. and he intends to do some practicing Thursday, Friday and Satur- day this week. If he is in shape by Monday, as he eo sae to be, he will join the team that day in Philadelphis. Thornton, who hit him with the ball, is now with the team for use in an emergency. — THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Cattle rket. At the Union stock yards 76 cattle were on the market yesterday.

At the meeting of tne school board last night Mr. Cornish, trustee of the 8th division colored schools, gave a notice of an amendment to the rules to limit the number of pupile in the col- ored normal school to twenty-five. Mr. Cor- nish said that the urgent reason for this change is shown by the fact that these divisions are now graduating nearly double the number needed for the public service. Under the old arrangement in force up to 1887, said Mr. Cor- nish, it was found that every graduate could be given employment in every instance save one. Under the new arraugement, which increased the number to forty, there were fifteen gradu- ates unemployed.

When questioned by a Sram reporter this morning the prisoner said that his name was James Ewers and that he was born in St. Louis, where his relatines now reside, but he wanted it distinctly understood that he was a “govern- ment man and lived at the North Pole.” Sanitary Officer Frank, to whom the case was referred, had an interview with the prisoner yesterday, He told that officer that he was “Capt. ‘ason Carter, fifth United States infan- try.” Officer Frank went to the War depart- ment and there learned that there was such an officer as Capt.

The action of Judge Mills yesterday in refus- ing to receive prisoners arrested after the meet- ing of the Police Court, as published in Tae Stan, is severely criticised by members of the Police force generally. In speaking of the matter this morning an officer said: “It's an outrage to lock some of these poor fellows up this weather and keep them in acell for twenty-four hours when their cases could be tried in fifteen minutes. They are certainly entitled to a ‘speedy trial,’ and that and noth- ing else is a speedy trial in such trifling cases as disorderly conduct. Then there is another side to the question. The persons arrested are not always guilty and their incarceration when it could so easily be avoided and cruel puni ent. The police business of the city has outgrown the Police Court and it is pretty near time that we had another court or some other means of relief.” ———___ OUR BLUE-COATED GUARDIANS. Police Force Changes—Notes from the Station Houses. J. 8, Kraemer qualified as a member of the Police force today and was assigned to duty in the fifth precinct. He was appointed to fill the position made vacant by the resignation of Policeman 8. B. Casey. Mr. Kraemer is a Washingtonian and has been employed as a conductor on the 14th street ine. The police officials are pleased to get a bona fide citizen of the District as a policeman once in a while instead of drawing on the army and navy, HE WAS TIRED. Policeman Casey told one of his brother offi- cers that he was tired of the business, but the latter was of the opinion that the business was tired of Casey because Night Inspector Pear- son caught him enjoying a rest in the Wallach school building when he should have been on duty. HAD A GOOD RECORD, BUT HE WOULD DRINK. Policeman Bryant went on duty today in the eighth precinct in place of Officer Rentch, who was dismissed for intoxication. Police- man Rentch was an excellent officer and was highly esteemed by his superior officers, but he had one bad fault, and that the frequent use of intoxicants. Once before he was tried on a similar charge, but on account of his good record he was not dismissed. COLD WATER MEN, Almost in front of the house of Capt. Austin, on 6th street, there is a pump of clear, cold water. The pump is used as much as any other pump in the city, and the captain has asked that two dippers be attached to it in or- der to accommodate those who desire a re- freshing drink of the pure beverage, Captain Austin was recently confined to his house on account of sickness, and during that time the policemen on that beat paid frequent visits to the pump. “We wanted to show the captain,” said one of the bluecoats, “that we drink water in preference to something stronger.” COMBINING BUSINESS AND PLEASURE. Lieut. Kelly goos off on his vacation tomor- row. When granted a leave he always, instead of visiting the seashore, goes to one of the larger cities and acquaints himself with the manner of policing elsewhere. Two years ago he went on an extended tour through the west. ca year he will visit Philadelphia and New ‘ork. A WORD TO RECKLESS DRIVERS. The police of the first precinct complain that drivers of vehicles are not careful enough in turning the street car transfer corners at Penn- ohare avenue and 7th street and at 9th and streets, They state that the number of reck- less drivers who turn the corners mentioned is large and they desire to call the attention of the drivers to that fact through the columns of ‘Tue Star. A policeman, speaking about the mat- ter, said that it was no use to take all the cases to court, as the court usually let the drivers go. *‘But,” he added,‘when a person is injured in that way the cry of ‘where are the police?’ is at once raised.” —— DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.
