The Nationals bunched hits when they neededed them yesterday and won as they liked. Foreman, who was in the box, was bat- ted bard, but hits were kept scattered. ‘The Athictics played a er poe and, with the exception of Cross and Haliman, seemed to play without life or head. The visitors are cer- tainly playing the most indifferent sort of bail ef aay sib that bes beon here thie cossen. Of course they are crippled, yet the team they wut in the field is an excellent one.

Corkhill’s grounder was fumbled by Dowd and Chamberlain's single to right brought in Milligan. In the fifth Foreman led off with a home-run hit to right center. Murphy’ Je, Dowd and Hines being hit, with Daily’ hit over second and Milligan’s wild throw, brought the home team’s total up to seven. The Athletics scored two in their half on singles by Wood, Larkin and Milligan and Al- vord's miss of Beecher's throw. The visitors added another brace of runs in the seventh on asingle by Wood and triple-baggers by Lar- kin and Milligan. The Nationals made i1 hits and 2 errors: Athletics, 10 hits and 1 error. TOMORROW'S GAME AT FOU® o'cLocE. It has been decided to have tomorrow an e: tra ladies’ day, and the last game before the ture of the home team on # short tri be witnessed by a large number of the fair sex. In order to accommodate government Washington Oarsmen at the Regatta of the Patapsco Navy. THE DAY WAS BEAUTIFUL AND THE ELEMENTS WERE ALL FAVORABLE—BAD POLICING OF THE COURSE—NONE OF THE RACES FURNIRRED 4x¥ EXCITING FINISH. Washington was not much of a factor in the regatta in Baltimore yesterday, although con- tributing several of the component elements. One Ione Washington man, favored by the Withdrawal of his most active competitor for place, rowed over the course unchallenged, in the wake of another man, and took second prize in the senior single shell race. Beyond thir, however, no trophy of any sort comes to Washington to remind any one tbat there was & regatta on the Spring Garden course under the auspices of the Patapsco Navy on the 25th clerks it has been arranged to call tomorrow's game between the Nationals and Athletics at 4 ‘clock, which will be the regular hour here- after on Saturday. SHARE PLAYING AT, BOSTON. Boston gave Baltimore and McMahon a warm reception. Brown and Joyce started off with home runs, and Brouthers followed with a double and McGeachy with a single. At the end of the fifth inning McMshon retired and Bakely went in, Boston only getting two hits im the last four innings. Boston's infield gered remarkably fast game, making four ble plays Welch, MeGeachy and Van Hal- tren also did brilliant ‘delding. In the eighth at Boston yesterday the Balti- mores made a good attempt to rally. Bay made # bit and scored on Werden’s triple. Johnson Belped mattee, along with # hit and Werden scored, when Brien gave bases on balls to Wise and Gil'ert. Matters began to get excit- me Towns -ed bit to Joyce, who threw home, the ball went from Farrell to Brouthers like @ stresk, ands double play had resulted, when the prospect for runs looked very bright indeed.

The conditions of both air and water were perfect, and no natural element lacked in the qualifications to make the regatta a complete success. That the races were not exciting or close at the finishes, or that the course was badly protected from the encroachments of all | sorts of craft, or that the stake boats were scarcely within sight of either the judges or the contestants, did not seem to dampen the ardor of the Baltimore enthusiasts, and the Up) branch, as the water is called whereon the regatta was held, was ascene of wild excito- ment for the three hours during which the races were being rowed. There were certain local conditions that tended to make the races interesting to the majority of the folks on the mater, and: good, bed or indifferent, the thing was all the same to them, and they enjored s¢ as much as if it had been @ matter of the most intense importance. ‘THE COURSE. ‘The course is not a straight one, having s slight turn in it at about half way from the start, at an angle perhaps of ten degrees, This did not interfere with the quality of the races, except that it prevented the crews from getting single bearings and keeping them throughout the regatta. Tad veering. was, therefore the order of the day, and the good racing was all done on the first half of the course. There seemed to be absolutely no police protection to the course whatever, and small boats and sail- ing craft, as wellas ‘tugs and yachts, roamed over the waters at will and played havoc with the caiculations of the coxawains and the bow oarsmen. Two swamping accidents and three fouls were the result out of the seven events that comprised the regatta. The races were rowed very promptly, and in this the management scored a success. Program announced the gig race to start at 3 o'clock and the others at intervals of half an hour thereafter, and the actual times were not very far from those stated. The gigs got off about 3:03, and had it not been for the mistake of one of the senior scullers in getting his race placed wrong and thus arriving on the course ten minutes late, there would have been no delays whatever. THE OFFICIALS IN CHARGE. The events were in charge of the following officials: J. H. C. Watts, referee; James Mon- tell of the Neptune, H. C. Protzman of the Ariel and W. P. Ryan of the Columbia, judges. Edward R. Reynolds of the Potomacs and J. P. B. Sadler of the Neptune were timers. There was quite a large contingent of Wash- ingtonians present on the waters, mostly men from the Columbia Club, who found little or no chance to exert theit lungs. Messrs. Kodrigue and Keynolds of the Analostan and Potomac Clubs, respectively, were guesta on the referee's boat, in company with a reporter of Tux Stax, who' made the journey over to the city of monuments to witness the doleful sight of the Washington oarsmen humiliated. The first event was perhaps the closest at the finish of any, and that was a good deal of a rocession. It was a gig race between the fol- lowing crews: FIRST RACE—FOUR-OARED GIGs. Pennsylvania Boat Club of Philadelphia—A. J. Ingraham, 1; Walter Nagle, 2; C. B. Dix, 8; Percey Wall, stroke, and W. R. Brice, coxswain. lciumbia Ahletic Club of Washington —8.J. jannus, stroke; Harban, |. We Brewster, 2; W. E. Crist, 1, and W. A. Smith, coxswain. The Pennsylvanians caught the water first and went almost a iength ahead on the first jamp. rowing easily at thirty-six, but with lon Sweeps that told.. ‘There was some danger of & foul from the fact that Pennsylvania went somewhat into the water of Columbia, but Just before the boate came together they were sheered off and the race went on. Coxswain Smith of Columbia steered a beautiful course, aud had the boat been rowed in better form the race might have Leen won. At the turna great many small boats got in the way and the outlook was for an accident, yet the two cre@s went threw without stopping and finished off the course. The steamer Comfort, a pleasure yacht, was anchored directly in the course aud the stake was notto be seen. The boats went racing off down the river, ten lengths off the course, and did not stop pulling until a quarter of a mile beyond the finish. Pennsylvania won by five lengths. There was no time taken. The victors rowed at fifty-six at the finish. JUNIOR SINGLES. The men entered in the race for junior sin- gles, which came next, were Norton Bell, Iona Boat Club, Philadelphia: P. Roselle, Rowing Club, Harlem river; RB. E. Ariel Kewing Club, Baltimore, 5 den, Columbia Athletic Club, Washington. Sel- den fell bebind at the start ‘and gave up the race in about a quartet of a mile, when he was fouled by Roselle, whom the referee at once | disqualified. Kosselic, however, kept on to the finish and crowed the line second, while Yan- sant won by three lengths, in 10.57. Bell, who | saw that he was distanced, rested on his sculix about fifteen lengths from the line, but, at the shouts of his friends on the judges’ boat, he went on and pulled over the course, beinj awarded second place on account of Hessel n out for his foul. The foul & nature as to prevent Seld making a place for nimself in the race had it been in him todo ro, and be was visibly out- classed from the start. SENIOR SINGLES. The third event was between the following senior singles: Edwin Hedley, Vesper Boat Clad, Philwlelphia; Clinton C. Smithson, Po- tomac Athletic Club, Washington,- and Hagry Zwinger. Nonpariel Rowing Club, Harlein river. Zwinger was late at the start and the race was delaved x little in consequence. Hed- ley. who was looked upon as the winner, took the lead at once, with Zwinger second and Smithson third. The boats were well bunched, however, and it was anybody's race for the first arter. Then Smithson went behind and Hediey had a lead of three lengths. “Smithson, who soon recovered from a case of bad stecr- and he was rowing iu fine form when Zwi vutting his boat sharply to the north, pulled’ across Smitbson's water and went ‘out of the race. Hedley, taking it very easy, won by five lengths in ten minutes. SEx10R FouRS. ‘There were three contestants in the race for senior fours, as follows: Ariel Rowing Club of Baltimore—R. E. L. 8, and E. A. Siack, stroke. Columbia Athletic Ci « Baker, 1. Vevusyivania Boat Club of Philadelphia— A. J. Ingraham, bow; Walter Nagel, 2; C. B. Dix, 8 and Perey Wall, stroke.

The Ariels’ were behind, but gaining, when, at the turn, their boat came into a voluntary collision with a small sail boat anchored off the course, and the crew was in the water in the next minute. At this time the Philadelphia crew led by over a length and the Neptune boat was taking such a zig-zag course as to put it hi y in the rear. Midway up the last stretch it struck a small boat off the course and seemed to be willing to give up the race, when the friends of the crew on the barges that lined the shores yelled out encouragement and by a strenuous effurt the boat was righted and the race continued. The Pennsylvanians won by several lengths in a time that was re- Ported to be 2.01, but which was seriously joubted, in view of the bad work on the course. The Ariels did not finish. DOUBLE SCULLS, There were two boats entered in the race for double sculls, as follows: Nonpariel Rowing Club of New York—George H. Delany, bow. and Harry Zwinger, stroke. Veaper Boat Club. of Philadelphia Edward Hedley and Charles J. Saenger. There was a false start, and then a good one, with both boats well together. At the first buoy the Vespers led by a length and this lead they increased, making the race a procession without interest. ‘The Nonpariel boat was badly steered and on the last quarter the men ave up the race, pulling over the line on a feat to make soceut place. ‘The Vespers made the mile and a half in 10.42. SENIOR EIGHT-OARED SRELLS. ‘Then came what was expected to be the great ruce of the day between the crews of eight of the Columbia and Malta clubs, the latter of Philadelphia. It was a disappointment. The crews were composed as follows: Malta Boat Ciub of Philadelphia, Pa.—Walter Snyder, 1; Frank Rose, 2; George Hoskins, 3; 0. J. De Rausse, 4; Arthur Maitland, 5; Joseph Hiil, 6; James Terry, 7; Daniel L. Chesterman, 8, und Charles Clarke, coxswain. Columbia Athletic Club of Washington—8. J. Jannus, stroke; Charles Baker, 7; I. 8. Dyer, 6 ill Kyan, 4; 'L.'L. Harban, 8: R. J. W. Brewster, 2; W. E. Crist, 1,and W. A. Smith, coxswain. The boats were started falsely by some one in a pleasure boat near the starting boats and the crews had to be called back. ‘The second start was a good one, the Columbias catching the water first and taking a slight lead, rowing 42. Then the Maltas pushed ahead and at the first buoy had a lead of the length of an oar. Just beyond this buoy the Columbia boat was seen to approach the other shell and there was the least clash of oarsas the two boats came together. ‘This was not noticed at the time, except by the referee, who said nothing. how- ever, and the race went on in a way that prom- ised great things. ‘The boats were well to- gether and the Columbias, after going to the Tear hy half a length, went forward again, and, pulling in magnificent form, had almost put the noses of the boats in line when » most un- fortunate accident occurred.

Mamie, on which were a number of members of the executive committee of the A. A.U., and which had a good lead over the other tugs thas were following the race, steered deliberately out of her course into the racing water without heeding the whistles of the referee's tug. At first it looked as if those on the Mamie were merely desirous of getting closer to the race in order to see better, but in another second there was suspicion of foul play, as the tug bore straight down onthe Malta's shell, and then, just when there seemed to be a c: lision i nevitable, sheered off and missed the boat by less than a yurd, leaving a tremendous swell Dehind. ‘The Malta's boat went over the wave easily and rested in the quiet water beyond, but the cross sea slopped enough water into the shell of the Columbia crew to swamp her, and she was soon ont of sight, with the heads of her crew sticking above the surface. At the first sign of danger the bow oarsman, Eugene Crisy, who is known here as oue of the finest swimmers on the river, jumped over- board to save the boat and put his shoulder under her keel. A tug soon came out to the rescue and the men were taken aboard without any damage either to them or to the boat. ‘The referee waved his hand to the Malta crew to go on, and the boat was pulled over the course. ‘The decision was that the race should go to the Maltas on the first foul, and that the accident had nothing to do with the result. There was no time taken. ‘The visiting crews were royally entertained in the evening at the hoases of the and Ariel clubs, which are located on tl river just east of the Long bridge, that formed ‘the finish line of the course. ~_— Consul Jay E: Unpoputlarity.

Death of Lillian Conway. Reports from England announce the recent death there of Lillian Conway, the actress. ‘Miss Conway was born in Brooklyn about twenty-eight years ago, and in that city she made her first appearance. Her marriage to Banker Gambler and their separation after a few years of wedded life is of too recent occur- rence to have been forgotten by the public. After the separation Miss Conway started out at the head of Lillian Conway Opera Compan: but she was attacked with inflammatory rhou- matism and forced to leave the stage. sfhce that time she has lived in England with her inter Minnie, who is the wife of Osmond ‘eur! ‘The New Haven Directors Acquitted. At the beginning of the third day of the trial of Chauncey M. Depew and ten other di- rectors of the New York, New Haven and Hart- ford railroad Wednesday in New York only two facts bad been pronght out by the evidence, namely, that the New Haven road heated their cars by the use of stoves on and before Feb- ruary 20 last and that the directors knew that the cars were so heated. As stated Wednesday in Tax Stan, Judge Van Brant advised the jury to acquit all the defend- ants except President Clark. The jury imme- diately did so, and, on the motion of Mr. Bow- ers, Director Wilson G. Hunt, who is not on trial on account of illness, was allowed to go free also. In his charge to the jury Judge Van Brunt declared that the company came under the provisions of the statute of 1888 known as the car-heating statute; that the use of sucha system of car beating as the Beker system was in violation of such statute.

One of the most exciting races ever rowed on the Thames river took place at New London Yesterday afternoon over the three-mile course between the Cornell, University of Pennsyl- vania and Columbia University eight-oared crews. Cornell won, sfter s hard contest, im the fast time of 14 minutes 27}¢ seconds; University of Pennsylvania second by four lengths, time 14.45. Columbia was a bad third, being five lengths behind the Pennsylvania great | crew and eight lengths behind Cornell. ‘THE RECORD BROKEN. , Cornell’s time establishes # new record, the Previous best time being 14.43, over the same course by the same crew last year. The surprise of the day was the une: Re sd feature was the remarkably close race between Cornell and Pennsylvania, each of the two crews holding the lead at times before the first mile had been rowed, and for two miles it was impossible to name’ the winner.

At 8:80 the crews came in sight, Cornell and Pennsylvania on their tugs, while Columbia paddled down in their shell. With very little delay the crews backed up to the stake boats, and were at once given the word.” ‘The Pennsylvanians got the best of the start and their boat jumped a few feet ta, the front, with Cornell second, while Columbia, besides makin; start, seemed to lose at every stroke. In the first ten or twelve strokes Cor- nell's boat shot up even with the Pennsylvania, and for an eighth of a mile so close that a | could not be fairly credited to either crew. Nearing the half-mile flag the Pennsylvania doat nearly half a length ahead of Cor- nell, with Columbia two lengths behind and h ly out of the race. oming up to the navy yard, about three- quarters of a mile from the start, Pennsyl- vanin increased their lead to nearly a length. Cornell here made a grand spurt, and their boat gradually crept up alongside of the Penn- gylvania crow, and as the boats neared the mile g Cornell sent their boat up on even terms with Pennsylvania. For a few seconds the Pennsylvania boys held their position, the boats being bow and bow, while Columbia had lost another length. All of the crews were ug in splendid form, the two leading crews sending their shells through the water at a fast rate of speed, while the Columbia boat settled and seemed to hang after each stroke. EXCITING RACE FOR A MILE. From the one mile to the two-mile flag the Face between Cornell and Pennsylvania was most exciting. It was the decisive point of the race. The Cornells worked like beavers to obtain an advantage, which they did inch by inch, ‘while Pennsylvania worked equally ashard to save themselvef from defeat. At the two-mile flag Cornell showed clear of ‘s_ bow, with Columbia five Pennsylvania made another effort to regain the lead and succeeded in lapping Cornell's bow, but the effort was too much for them, and the Cornell men, responding to a final call, hit their stroke np to 4 and ran away from Péun- ing a strong winner, with Co- ee to be exhausted. alf mile was 2.20 and for ENVOYS COME FROM CHILI.
