Another Victory Over the Wilmington Team—Real Bali Playing. ‘The Washington team wonthe twelfth suc- sessive game yesterday in a very lucky manner after it looked very much like a defeat. The Wilmington team put ups sharp game after the first inning. when they made several er- Fors and began to bat McCoy's delivery so hard that he had to be taken out of the box. They Gnailly tied the score in the seventh. But the Invisible Washington mascot got in its work Just then and the Senators did some very | timely batting that pulled the game out of a small apertuce. It was aclose, exciting con- test and was well worth a larger attendance. POINTS OF THE GAME. James Gallix-n pitched for the visitors and was very effective until the eighth inning. “Mc- Coy seemed to be just what the visitors had been looking for. asin the third inning they pounded him for four runs. three of them earned. and then Phillips took hold and did his regularly puzzling work. Washington's field- ing game was beautiful, Bader and Gleason making the only errors on hard bounders. The Visitors managed to pile up quite an error col- umn before the game was over, most of their bad playing being in the first inning, when the Senators made four undeserved tallies, The Wilmington’s tied the score in the seventh. Corcoran went to ficst on balls and to third i wh trying to field up John hen a sacrifice by Creegan scored the run. This was as near to “> avictory as the tail-eu came, for in the eighth, with the bases full, Riddle with two strikes landed the bail safely over the second baseman’s head. while Nicholas and Nicholas had made a two bag: a lite by Sullivan's fumble. and J been hit by a pitched ball. Phillips’ e scored Hill, the last run of the game. 10D PLAY There were several brilliant plays, Riddle making a wonderful catch of ahigh foul within six inches of the stand, and then throwing to second only ascratch too late to catch a run- ner. Gleason made a fine one hand catch. and Bader ended the game by stealing a two base hit from Galligan im the ninth when a man was on first. The catch wasa most difticult one, and was well ap; also con- d to the fea y stealing five bases. Washington made 11 hits and 2 errors, and Wilmington 9 hits and 6 errors, OTHER GAMES.

He Urges the Pardon of a British Sub- ject Convicted in Montana. If the Montana state board of pardons will only listen to Secretary Blaine they will assent to the release of a man who is now serving alife senténce, having been convicted of man- slaughter two yearg ago in the territory of Montana, Thisstory is an interesting one. The prisoner for whom the State Department pleads is named John Alexander Rowand, and he was born in Quebec. His parents are wealthy and the family is said to be highly regarded even in that home of old-time French-Canadian aristocracy. When Rowand committed the crime for which he was convicted his relatives used every pos- sible instrament to set him at liberty. A brother of the present governor of Montana was of his counsel. The jury brought in a | Verdict of murder in the second degree, which resulted in a life sentence. When Mr. Toole beeame governor of Mon- tana he at once showed a desire to pardon Rowand, and he would have done go long ago | had not the board of pardons refused to con- | cur. This temporarily fractured the hopes of | Rowand and his friends, but they soon re- covered and went to work again. Sir John A. MacDonald, the Canadian premier, was the man they were after and they reached him. He was very much interested and soon com- | municated with Sir Julian Pauncefote. her | British majesty’s representative in this country | and city. ‘Sir Julian talked the matter over with Seeretary Blaine and the result was the following letter to the objectors in Montana: DevartMent or State, WasuixeTox, May 1, 1890, To the Boardof Pardons of the State ¥ Montana: It has been represented to this department by officials from Canada and by the British minister accredited to this country that per- sonal justice would be done if John Alexander Rowand were released from prison, where he is contined upon the conviction of man- slaughter. It has been represented that there are circumstances connected with the affair ot a strongly ameliorating character. It has been represented that the jury that convicted Row- | and has petitioned for bis release and that the | governor of the state has issued a pardon, sub- | ject to the approval of your honorable board. cumstances, as a metter of in- | ternational courtesy, | have the honor to re- quest that the board of pardons, if their con- sclentious sense of duty approve, advise the release of the said Rowand. Under cireum- stances not dissimilar the British government has in several imstances paid attention to the respectful request of the United States, Such interchanges often bring relief to deserving persons and in the belief that this case is one properly appealing to official clemency I do not hesitate to interpose with whatever weight # request from the State Department may carry. With great respect, Your obedient servant, James G. Buarye, Secretary of State. Nothing can be done in the matter just now, fi t in th dicts however, because Gov.

The defect in the law was so plain that even the logic of Gov. Whyte, who appeared for the state, was unable to place a different construc- tion upon it, and the court sustained the de- murrer. The state must nbw depend upon the charge of malfeasance in office, on which Mr. Archer will be tried at Annapolis, 400 SHARP TALK IN THE HOUSE. The Majority ot the Ways and “Means Committee Attacked and Defended. Inthe course of the tariff debate in the House after the Stan's report closed yesterday Mr. MeMillin of Tennessee alluded to a Mr. Camp- bell of Pittsburg, « glass manufacturer, asking for protection from foreign labor, while he was charged with importing foreign labor in viola- tion of the contract labor law. Mr. Bynum of Indiana denounced Campbell as aperjurer. Campbell had come before the ways and means committee, he said, and had held a consultation with the gentleman from West Virginia (Mr. Wilson) and himself, and then had gone away and made an affidavit which was false from beginning to end, Mr. Bayne (Pa.) said he would take Mr. Campbell's word as soon as he would take that of the gentleman from Indiana, and ke knew them both. Campbell was the chosen repre- workingmen and any insult or indignity offered to him was offered to them. He pledged hi word for Mr. Campbell that he would be here and place his affidavit in the light in which it was to be held by the people who judicially examined the case. Though this was the House of Representatives there was no authority, under the Constitution, for any member to assail the character and reputation of a citizen, THE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE, Mr. Bynum said that the committee on ways and means, in the formation of its bill, had closed the doors of the Capitol against the la- bor of the country, but admitted the manufac- turers. The majority of the committee raised the curtain and peeped out to see who was there. The very entrance to the Capitol was closed in order to keep anybody from coming in but those the majority would allow, It ad- mitted the manufacturers, but if honest labor came and knocked at the door it was not ad- mitted. Mr. Flower of New York bore testimony to the fact that the committee had heard all in- dustries that had requested a hearing. Mr. McKinley said that the imputation of the gentleman from Indiana that the ways and | means committee had closed up a passage to | the House in order that the majority might have a private consultation room was false, Every member of the committce had signed a request to the Speaker asking to have an ad- ditional room assigned to it, The selection of the room had been made by the Speaker, in company with Mr. Carlisle and himself (Mr. McKinley). ‘The minority had always had ac- cess to the room. He did not permit any man to impute to the committee any bad motives, or any lack of courtesy to the minority. ‘The minority of the committee knew that any im- putation of that kind was absolutely false, and if made was made by some one ignorant of the relations between gentlemen of the committee. coe ARCHER WILL GO FREE, Owing to an Ambiguous Statute He Cannot be Tried for Embezzlement. Washington Correspondent New York Sun. Washington is a perfect hotbed of base ball enthusiasts, and in the ranks are men who owe their positions in the government departments tothe fact that once uponatime they were identified with amateur and semi-professional base ball clubs. While some of these men en- joy good incomes from their places at Uncle Sam’s crib, the combined salaries of two of the best-paid government officials who formerly tossed bull will not aggregate as much as Kelly of the Bostons received last year for his services.

It is a well established fact, demonstrated to the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter- prising business men of Washington, who seck and know where to find THE LARGEST RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PAID OUT FOR ADVERTISING. This is proven by the growth of Tue Stan's advertising patronage. Nothing can more surely illustrate the esteem in which any article is held by the public than a constantly increasing demand for it—day by day, week by week, month by month, and year by year,—in the face of ad- verse claims and pretentious competition.
