HOW YESTERDAY'S GAME WAS LOST—OTHER GAMES —EW TORE AND BOSTON STILL, STRUGGLING POR THE LEAD—NOTES OF THE BROTHERIOOD'S PLANS, ‘The wild and woolly west achieved a decisive Victory in base ball yesterday over the effete east, ench one of the teams from the latter sec- tion of the world falling victims to the superior Prowessof their brethren from the land of the Setting sun The Senatorial combination formed one of the ingredients in the general Consomme of the day. Pittsburg was the con- querer, as usual, and the score was 8 to 5. The Gefeat was the result of an inability on the Part of the visitors to hit the curves of a young Pittsburg amateur pitcher named Zones, who proved unusually effective for a debutant and struck out ten men. Keefe, on the other hand, was hit freely when occasion @emanded, besides giving nine bases on balls and being supported in a rather loose manner. Clarke played at short and accepted five out of six Riddle appeared once more in right and made one of everything, including a two- base hitjandan error. Brother John led the bat- ting of the day, making a double and s triple. The Pitteburgs took an early lead and were never headed. made one in the second and two in the thir: Both sides scored one in the fifth and Washington came within one of tying by making two more in the sixth. But im the seventh Pittsburg won the game by scoring four times, while the Statesmen could get only two runs over the rubber. There were nine hundred ;people present. Washing- ton made 7 hits and 4errors and Pittsburg 9 hite and 3 errors, all by White. Jones gave Only one base on balls. The New Yorks feil victims to the Hoosiers, Tto2 Getzein, Russie and Daily and Keefe, Crane and Ewing were the batteries. Getzein hart his arm in the first and retired, and Keefe was pounded ont of the box in the second. The Hoosiers made 11 hits and 1 error and the Giants 6 hits and 5 errors. Boston missed a chance to regain the lead, losing to ——— by the score of 7 to4. Tener and Darling and Clarkson and Bennett were the batteries. The Chic: team made all their runs in the second and third innings, and after that Boston Leyes ® strong up-hill game. Chicago made 9 hits and 8 errors, and Boston 4 hits and 4 errors. The Infants shut the Phillies ont, 2 to 0. The batteries were Bakeley and Zimmer and San- ders and Schriver. Cleveland made 7 hits and lL error and Philadelphia 5 hita and 2 errors, There were no association games played. THE LEAGUE RECORD up to date is as follows: To Per Clubs, = Won. Lost. lay. cent. New York 3 4 1 2b 65: Boston... 2 OAT Philadelphia - Chicago. . Cleveland. Pittsburg .. Indianapolis Washington .. We play the Infants today. The pennant chase is very exciting. Will not somebody please put a pinch of salt into the soup to preserve us? It is said that Boston will protest the te med game played by New York at Phila Seiphia on Friday. That claim would hardly go. Arthur Irwin rather gave the co-operative fdea s black eye yesterday. Clarkson is ie Dapeng an offer of 21,000 from Conant if he will get the championship. He will get 2300 anyway for pitching all the games he can. Money is what turns the wheel. “Here, you Indians, if you don’t go in and beat those Giants today you won't get any more favors from Boston. It's time some one took the conceit out of the ‘blooming York- ers.’ "—Boston Globe. There is nothing like being obliging, and the Hoosiers are probably the most o! uiging folks, when it suits them, on the diamond fiel today. The Globe forgot the blonde young man named Anson, who hails from Chicago. Here is another phase of the co-operative business that is really one of the most im- portant elements in the business: Zach. Phelps, ex-president of the Louisville club, does not believe that the ¢ brother- hood of base ball players will ie & success of the rative scheme. “It will be impos- sible.” said he, ‘‘to make the people believe that the clubs will not be hippodroming when they are all under one management, To keep the public interest it is absolutely necessary that each club should be run independently of the others. Then there is a guarantee that they are trying to do their best. But when the players go to dividing themselves out to suit a common interest and w “my together all the time it will kill the game. ‘hala, Inquirer, That is the key note of the situation. Half the interest in base ball is that felt in the race. Take the excitement of a genuine struggle for honors away from the sport and it would at- tract people merely as the circys does, as an amusement. In order tomake the game pay it must have something more than a mere finan- cial basis, and it can be safely asserted that the success of the league today is due to the terest that has been created in the public mind in whether or not the local club was going to it there.” This is demonstrated by the woekal falling off in attendance after a club loses a few games. Of course the subsequent laying is probably as good and as entertain- Le as before, but the interest is gone. Grand- father Pheips is on the right tack now. A St. Louis special to the Philadelphia Press gays: While discussing the disastrous play of his ball team in the east two weeks ago Von der Ahe said; “Just wait ae home; I bet I'll make them remember the Dutchman.” He was eee. ‘The board of directors of the team, after an all-day session, submitted to the players a verdict that will make them re- Member “the Dutchman” for several days, The men were “investigated” on the charges of not playing ball to win. Chamberlain, who is of a sulky disposition, will not pitch winning ball if crossed or disci- lined. Latham and ng have been laid off lor months. After hearing all the evidence the directors took beroic measures, Latham was fined $200 and laid off for the rest of the sea- son. King was fined $100 and laid off for the rest of the season. Chamberlain was fined (00 and Robinson was reprimanded for trying to swallow ipo The fining caused great excitement am the players. An odor of sulphur rmented Bportsmen’s park and the jacent territory, Vou der Abe is all smiles tonight and says he is on top of the heap. He has succeeded in kuocking out Byrne and the recalcitrant ball tossers. Here is some rather interesting base ball talk ee Yesterday from Minneapolis to the Philadelphia Times: “Conant, the senior member of the grest Boston triumvirate of Conant, Billings and Soden, is expected in St. Paul tomorrow morning to confer with his trusted satellite, Frank Selee, who represents Boston's interest in the northw: Conant and Spalding are the powers that be in the National and the adveatof the former in the northwest is indicative of the policy which the e management will pursue with reference to the brotherhood. Speculation as to the object of the visit of the distinguished base ball manager has assumed 4 tangible form. It is nothing more nor less than a bodily transfer of every team in the western sssociation to the National league for next season, Through Frank Selee the scheme has been quietly hatching since the rumored strike of = brotherh: Parag The orig- aL inten! of the league magnates was to transfer Sf poms team from all the minor leagugs to association, but Selee and another trust OVER 4 MILLION WANTED.

The Chicago Journal has been revealing the newspaper methods of that burg ina very unkind manner. It says that when the first rumor came that the Carlson cottage contained gory evidence that Dr, Cronin had been mur- dered there, two reporters started out to make @ good story of it anyhow. They were cann; men and foresaw that they might need evi- dence not forthcoming in the detail of blood, 80 they bought a roll of cotton batting as they went along and soaked it in beef blood at one oftheir stately abattoirs, whose noble archi- tecture makes every good Chicrgoan’s heart swell with pride in “his city’s municipal build- ings. They carried the bloody cotton to the cottage and hid it in the basement. Then they came around and broke in the front door. There they are said to have found enough evidence that seemed to be genuine and when @ policeman came along and turned them out they forgot the reserve of manufactured horror in the cellar. The police found it and were properly shocked and promptly put it in evidence, Analysis by the Recomm showed it was beef blood that had beeen used to saturate the cotton, and the prosecution was to have the fact sprung upon them but for the publication of the story in the Journal, eee An Organist’s Dream. The Jefferson street Methodist church at Lonisville, Ky, which was dedicated by Bishop Keener last Sunday, would have been in cshes the day before but for ajsingular dream of Miss Belle Ferguson, the church organist. Miss Ferguson was much interested in the coming dedication and had worked assiduously to get the new organ in good condition, The matter weighed heavily on her mind, and on last Thursday nightshe dreamed several times that the organ was in bad condition. The next day she could not shake off the impression and on Friday evening she grew so uncasy that she took a friend and went to thechurch, As soon as they opened the door they found the altar beginning to blaze from a bundle of rags which had been used in oiling and varnishing the woodwork. The fire was easily extinguished, but a littie later the church would probably have been destroyed. It is supposed the rags were ignited by spontaneous combustion. ee —____ Another Chance for Mrs. Maybrick.
