No one expected the Senators to win twice in succession from Chicago, but they came quite close to it yesterday. losing by the-score of 9 to 7. The batteries were Krock and Daly and Hutchinson and Darling. Anson's men won by a fortunate bunching of hits, earning 7 runs. Washington made 2 in the first, Chicago 1 in the second and 2 in the third, the score being tied by Washington in the latter half. It re- mained thus, 4 to 4, until the sixth, when Chi- eago made land another in the seventh. In the eighth Chicago made 8 and Washington 2, the Senators spurting to the extent of 1 in the uinth, which was not enough. The game was well played, but Krock was wild, giving seven men bases on balls,many of which yielded runs. Burns and Wise led the batting for their re- spective sides, the former making two singles anda triple and the latter two singles and a double. Hoy and Wilmot made two hits each and Arthur Irwin a three-bagger. Washington made 9 hits and 1 error (Mack) and Chicago 12 hits and $3 errors. OTHER GAMES. New York won from Pittsburg, 6to 5. The game was remarkable in being perfect as far as fielding went, not an error being charged to either team. Crane and Ewing and Sowders and Carroll were the batteries. New York won by means o! perior batting, making 10 hits to 8 by Pittsburg. Boston lost the leed again by losing to Cleve- land, 7to1. This game, oddly enough, was also perfect in fielding. The batteries wei Olarkson and Bennett and Beatin and Sutcliffe. Clarkson was ineffective, the Infants earning 5 runs, while Beatin was s complete = 5 Cleveland made 8 hits and Boston an many. Philadelphia won from Indianapolis with three four two gers, 2 bo: x ends netted eightruns. Boyle, Rusi: and Daily and Buffinton and Cements the batteries.

More shifting in the league race yesterday, Roston and New York and Pittsburg and Cleve- ssud changing places again. The seesawing going on between the leadgrs and the plac seekers is making the outcome of the race complete puzzle. The records are as follo Clubs. ow York. boston .... Indianapolis. Washington .

There were only eleven errors made in the eight es played yesterday, a rather re- markable record. Wouldn't it be comical if Boston and St. Louis played the world’s series after all/—New York “Herald yesterday. They have changed their tune today and are now yelling, “We are the people” in the good old style. Fogarty stole six bases last week and leads the league with a total of 77; Kelly stole seven, making his total 66. Tom Brown has 64 to his eredit. Ward 56, Hanlon 50, Glasscock 49 and t .nday 47. President Reach of the Philadelphia club is of the same opinion as John Morrill in regard to the change im the rules. He thinks that the cher should be set back 5 feet and that the. number of balls should be increased to five. He also favors the substitution of rubber bases, set flush in the ground, for the crippling arti- cies now in use. Manager Mutrie says: “If New York needs the games to win the pennaut five games will be played with Cleveland, Boston’ tue contrary. Two games in one ¥ are as egal now as they were earlier in the season, aud the constitution makes it allowable to play Lg re be not time to play them on the grounds from which they were Postpor x President Young says that he cannot pass upon the legality of such games until they are payed, but that they will have to be referred to the board of directors. Mike Kelly has disgraced himself again, He was so thoroughly disabled by tanglefoot yes- terday that he could not play, so he sat on the bench wrapped in an overcoat and made maud- lin comments on the game. The Philadelphia Press special from Cleveland says: “Barring Kelly's removal from the grounds tue game was uninteresting. Kelly’s conduct was aceful in the extreme and the crowd appreciated Umpire McQuaid’s action in hav- ing him ejected. In the sixth Clarkson, who had been given his base on balls, scored on Richardson's double. Ganzel went to first on balls and Nasb hit safe to right. Richardson started home from second, but Radford re- turned the ball quickly and the runner was called out at the plate. Kelly was sitting on the bench and objected to the decision, sayin; McQuaid was robbing them. He then starte t ward McQuaid and yelled: “You came west just to rob us out of the championship so you could umpire in the world’s series.” The um- e called upon a policeman to eject Kelly and the officer caught hold of the player, who jerked away and rau toward McQuaid in a threatening manner. Several of the Boston players held him and two more policemen came and pushed Kelly out of the grounds. He stood at the gate for awhile and then got into a carriage and drove to the hotel.” Hart claims that some Cleveland players made Kelly drunk, but the other side deny this indignantly and say that Kelly “‘went it alone.” Philadelphia has offered 915,000 for Capt. Comiskey of the St Louis club. It is the largest offer ever made for a base bali player. Pittsburg made an offer of $15,000 for Auson, but it proved to be only abluff. Von der Abe shook bis bead and said that as long as he had @ ball team Comiskey would be with it, ——+— ahourr Niacana asp Romawtic Warxrs.— Miagers!

At the session of the national league of the civil service reform association in Philadel- phia yesterday, after the discussion of the res- olutions presented by Sherman Rogers, which were published in Taz Star, Mr. Everett P. Wheeler presented a series of resolutions ad- vocating the appointment of s special agent at Washington and of missionaries to go about the country with the object of establishing as- sociations and thereby disseminating the prin- ciples of civil service reform. The proposition gave rise to quite a long discussion, many of the members expressing doubt as to its practi- cability. Mr. Dorman B. Eaton offered a substitute simply a the executive committee to use all proper and judicious measures ‘within the resources of the baa, ll to advance the cause of reform, but Mr. Wayne McVeagh in- duced him to withdraw it, and Mr. Wheeler's resolutions were adopted. THE SECOND TERM QUESTION. President Curtis called for the reading of Dorman B. Eaton’s paper on the question “Should one who has held the office of Presi- dent be eligible for re-election?” Mr. Eaton demurred, addi that the question was of such itude that he was unable to have his paper, which he had pre, with great care, considered in the limited period which the meeting seemed to have at its disposal. He proposed to withdraw his paper altogether, ut it was finally referred to the executive committee to be printed, with the understand- ing that it be discussed at the next annual meeting of the league. HOW TO RUN THE POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT. A paper on ‘The post office to be taken out of politics,” by Richard A. Dana, was read by the secretary in that gentleman’s absence, It began as follows: “The reform of the civil service has now reached a point of dignity and importance. It has withstood two changes of administration, and though the number of po- sitions covered by the law is only 27,597, out of ® total of about 142,000. yet the aggregate an- nual salaries of these 27,000 places is between 1,000,000 and $40,000,000, or nearly one-half of the annual aggregute salaries of all the ap- pointive places in the United States civil serv- ice, as it is usually estimated. To have taken nearly $40,000,000 a year from the huge sums heretofore devoted to partisan purposes is no little work to have been accomplished. The tmasters, whose aggregate salaries are $12,500,000, are so situated that they can easily be made into the most useful political machine; and it is @ fact that they are coustantly being made into electioneering agents, with the ad- vantage of having their ies paid by the government.” Referring to President Harrison's remark in his inaugural address—that, in making up the civil list, the President had necessarily to rely upon the representations of others—Mr. Dana said: “The ‘others’ upon whom the largest degree of reliance might be placed in selecting bs gg for the Post Office department are postal inspectors themselves, who are selected under civil service regulations, and oes tear @ very intimate knowledge of the needs of the service. Promotions should be made upon the representations of these officials and always with a due regard to efficiency shown in the lower branches of the service. The division of the country into postal districts would be one of the best means of placing the service on a business basis, and ase means of preventing abuse of any sort it would be well to = a bill expressly forbid- ding removals from places in the post oftice for political reasons, and no removals should be made except after a hearing before the inspector in whose district it was proposed to make the change.” In order to eliminate the objection of per- sonal preference among the inspectors Mr. Dana urged competitive examinations which might, without serious difficulty, be applied to fourth-class postmasters. THE REFORM AS A MORAL QUESTION. Mr. Chas. Bonaparte of Baltimore, in his paper on “‘civil service reform as a moral ques- tion,” said that a man who promoted or excused any form of cheating at electi simply scoundrel. He further said: -‘A President who deprives the country of an upright and compe- tent postmaster or naval officer to meet the views or advance the views of selfish and un- scrupulous intriguers is no less blameworthy than one who should give them the public moneys; he may be less keeuly conscious of his guilt, if he bas lived long years in a moral atmosphere poisoned by the malaria of ‘spoils’ politics, but while he bas any conscience or — left he will feel ashamed of what he 8. “The growing evil of bribery in connection with elections is the logical outcome of the spoils system in politica and cannot be consist- ently condemned by any one who approves of using appointments to influence political ac- tion or reward partisan service. Whether a ‘worker’ is paid by # check or a sinecure, whether a man’s vote is bought for $5 or for the chance to dawdle a fortnight at street sweep- ing, can make no difference as to the right or = of the matter. While the man bribed is equally guilty, whatever the form of his reward, it is surely more odious and more noxious to bribe with what is the people's than with what is one’s own, to purchase suffrages or influence ‘at the taxpayer's cost than to pay for these out of the corrupter’s pocket. The spoilsmen will never love us, do what we may, but they will and do shrink from hearing us tell them what in truth they are. “No spoilaman, however hardened, is really indifferent when he hears that he is faithless to his trust and false to his oath of office; that his motives are unworthy, his excuses mere soph- istry, and, however much he ~ ay stupify his conscience or deceive his ne sors, he knows eae eat Me ante 4ontst man.” . Bonaparte’s paperw warily ay uded end in a resolution of thanks which was adopted it was declared to be a true exposition of civil service reform. After naming Buffalo, of meeting, the leagu N.Y., a8 the next place ijourned. tee Tore the Letter and Shot Himself. Just after dinner Tuesday afternoon Dr. D. L. French of Kempsville,« prominent physi- cian of Princess Anne county, Va., received a letter conveying unpleasant intelligence. Im- mediately upon reading the contents he ex- ressed himself angrily and tore the letter into ents. He at once procureda pistol and shot himself through the stomach, dying within twenty minutes. oo—____ Newnham College Graduates.

He Handles Senator Daniel Without Gloves. Gen. Mahone spoke to « large crowd at Roanoke, Va., yesterday for two hours, during which he handled Senator Daniel without gloves and challenged proof of the latter's as- sertion that he (Mahone) had bought at any Price, directly or indirectly, a dollar's worth of the labor or supply claims of the Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio railroad, had swindled the state out of a cent’s interest in itor had wrecked it by mismanagement. The state had never held 8 three million mortgage on the line, and he desired the Senator to produce the one he as- serted was in existence. Every dollar of the labor and supply claims had been paid by the Norfolk and Western, and that eompany, at his instance, had paid the state half a million of dol- lars, which the court had declared to be an in- valid claim. The condition of the road bed, depots, shops and rolling stock of the road when he assumed control of it was well known, as well as the condition he left it in, which was arefutation of the Senator's reckless asser- tions, He was surprised to see such a charge coming from a man of his prominence in state and national affairs, and he ventilated it, not that Mahone needed a vindication, but because Virginia's junior Senator needed a correction. Gen. one, Col. Craig and others also ateort there at night to a large and enthusiastic crow The day meeting was largely attended by farmers from Roanoke and the keepin country, and at night by mechanics ani laborers from the shops and furnaces, The general spoke with much freedom and force, and peals of laughter followed his sharp thrusts at his adversaries, ———eee_______ SHE TELLS HER STORY. Grace Whitaker Testifies Against Ex- Priest John J. Boyle. The trial of ex-Priest John J. Boyle, at Raleigh, N.C., for assaulting his organist, a seventeen-year-old girl named Geneva Whitaker, in May last, commenced yesterday. There was agreat crowd in the court room, for the case has excited intense interest in the com- munity. A jury was secured in two hours, composed entirely of white farmers of the in- telligent class. There are some twenty-five witnesses, the principal ones being the alleged victim of the assault, her father and two girls who were companions, and a colored boy, who was Mr. Boyle's servant at the church. Mr. Boyle will be an important witness in his own defense. Miss Whitaker was the first witness. Her examination and cross-examination lasted three hours. She gives her age as seventeen years. though she is apparently not over fifteen years old, undeveloped and very delicate. She said that the priest sent her a message by his col- ored boy while she was in church, requesting that she re to his sitting room. She went. When he first took liberties with her she re- buked him, and he told her it was no one's business if a priest chose to love and to marry. She struggled to get away and scroamed as loudly as she could for help, whereupon he threatened her with death, taking her by the throat and saying he would shoot her in the heart. He then urged her to marry him, prom- ising her all the money she desired if she would run away with him. She refused, and there- upon he assaulted her with great brutality. On @ former occasion the priest had taken her in his lap and when she left had kissed her on the forehead, but that she thought it an honor to be thus noticed by her priest, of whom she thought only as her spiritual adviser. Miss Whitaker's evidence was completed at hour this evening. The trial will continue all week. The line of defense is kept well con- cealed, Boyle had been leading a very irregular life for several weeks, to the great scandal of his congregation. He drank quite freely and his behavior in other ways was not that of a priest. He had been reported to Bishop Maid and, upon learning this, made threats that he would kill certain members of his congregation who he believed had reported him. ————+ee—______ STRUCK BY A WATER SPOUT.

Co-education has just received the almost unanimous approval of the college faculty of the University of Pennsylvania. This important action, the most advanced that has yet been taken in the liberalizing of the institution, was the result of a faculty meeting on Friday, when this resolution was adopted, with but two dissenting votes: “That students be admitted without distinction of sex to all the courses of the college faculty.” The resolution will go before the trustees, and if they shall approve it all the classes, from freshman to senior, will be open to students of both sexes. Already there are a number of young women anxious to enter the university, who are only waiting until the resolution is passed finally by the trustees. Sent to an Insaue Asylum. James W.

It prints ALL THE NEWS, Local, Domestic and Foreign, LONG IN ADVANCE OF THE MORN- ING PAPERS. This is conspicuously true of all classes of news, but especially so in regard to Local News and District Affairs. THE STAR bas a very much LARGER jand BETTER force of LOCAL RE- PORTERS and SPECIAL WRITERS | than any other paper in Washington lever thought of employing, and ITS MECHANICAL EQUIPM T AND | PRINTING FACILITIES ARE MORB THAN THREE TIMES AS POWER- FUL AND RAPID AS THOSE OF ANY | OTHER WASHINGTON PAPER, Itis , | therefore able to print each day a full report of every transaction of pubiie ine terest occurring in the District up te aces the very hour of going to press. 303 | By the free use of the OCEAN CABLES for REGULAR AND SPECIAL DIS- PATCHES, and with the difference of time in its favor, it is also able to give its readers every afternoon the news of the WHOLE EASTERN HEMISPHERE for the entire day, and up to 12 o’clock midnight, thus leaving literally nothing in the way of news from Europe, Asia, and Africa for the morning papers. | ——:0: | Equally does THE STAR lead all its | contemporaries in the publication of the iva | NEWS OF OUR OWN COUNTRY. Receiving the regular dispatches of both News Associations; with alert and enterprising special telegraphic core respondents at all important points; and with wires leading directly from its own office to the general network of telegraph system touching every city, town and hamlet in the United States and Terri- | tories, it is enabled to receive and print ‘atonce a full report of every event of consequence occurring during the day anywhere between the Atlantic and Pas , eltic Oceans. 20 @ NOTE THE RESULT: 3 203 THE STAR HAS MORE THAN THREE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR SUBSCRIGERS and MORE THAN FIVE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR READERS AS ANY OTHER DAILY PAPER IN WASHINGTON. It is de- livered regularly by careful carriers at the HOMES OF THE PEOPLE, AFTER THE BUSTLE AND WORRY OF THR TAY ARE OVER, and it is thus read | leisurely and thoroughly by EVERY MEMBER OF THE FAMILY, They know that it prints all the news, and has only the interests of the people of the District in view, with no partisan measures to advocate, and no private schemes to forward. They know it,in short, tobe THE PEOPLE’S PAPER, and nothingelse. Asan ADVERTISING MEDIUM it is, therefore, ABSO- LUTELY WITHOUT A RIVAL. It is in fact worth more as a means of reach- | ing the public THAN ALL THB OTHER DAILY PAPERS IN THE | CITY TOGETHER. | Furthermore, in proportion to the re- | turns it gives its patrons, ITS ADVER- | TISING RATES ARE THE CHEAPESE | IN THE CITY. —-0:— In conclusion, the public should bear in mind this one significant fact: THE STAK does not rely upon empty boasts to impress the public. ITS CIRCULA. TION IS SWORN TO; its PRESS- ROOM IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC; and its BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED by any one having an interest in their examination. These are CRUCIAL TESTS, which tew papers invite, and which those that boast most are least able to stand. @ The esteem in which THE STAR is held by the reading and advertising Public is conclusively shown by the fig- ures given below.
