Three different Buckeye twirlers eseayed to do the act of mystifying the Senatorial bats- men in the game in Columbus yesterday, but their efforts in this direction were not success- ful. Washington won ina canter by the score of 11 toY. The closeness of the score is «ome- what misleading, for the game, it is reported from the Columbus end. was very much of a procession. Columbus made a great spurt in the eighth inning and came within a few points of winning, but thers dag still a mncgin left and the record of the defeats that hav: been the portion of the Statesmen so far on this trip was broken. Washington played another perfect game, while every one of the errors made by Colum- bus proved costly. The batteries were Foreman and MeGnire, and Knell. Clark, Twitchell and Dowse. Of ‘the trio of Colambux wizards Twitchell was the most effective, but his aid did not reach the score in time, and the game was lost before he took hold. THE RUNS. Columbus started with a temporary lead of one run secured in the first inning. Crooks made a tripleand Sneed a single, and it was due to the good work of McGuire that more runs were not scored. In the sccond inning it was Washington's chance and the travelers im- proved it by scoring three times. Twitchell fir+t muffed « long fly from the bat of Sutelitle and then McGuire saerifiecd by hitting a grounder to Wheelock at short. Knell was in the box for Columbus at this time and he gave MeCauley and Alvord their bases on bails, fill- g the cirenit. He did not think that Foreman should be put out, so he presented hjm with a base, too, and there was. sadness in Colimbus, for Sutcliffe was forced in with the first run for Washington. Next Wheelock dropped a high fly from the bat of Murphy and two more runs were scored. ‘The home club tied the score in their half of the third by making a couple of runs. Don- nelly went to first on balls, and after he had stolen Clark was given a base and the bares were filled by means of a safe hit by Crooks. Daffee hit to the infield and Donnelly scored while Crocks was being put out at second. Clark crossed the rubber when Sneed lined out asafe one, but Duffee was too ambitious and came to grief while trying to make third on the hit. Twitchell then kindly struck out. Washington pulled away from the tie in good shape in the latter half of the inning, two runs being made. Sutcliffe went to first on balis and stole second, and in another moment both he and MeGuire scored when the latter sent a ball whizzing down to Dnffee in center. ‘The fielder galloped up to it gallantly, but it went through him somehow and rolled to the fence. ‘THE STATESMEN TOOK A NEAT LEAD in the fourth, three runs resulting from a nica combination of batting. Foremaz went to first on balls and scored when Murphy hit out fora triple. A wild pitch allowed Lawrence Patrick to tally and the: Hattield hit for a and stole second and third, the iatter time in connection with Suteliffe, who had gone to first on balls. Hattield was en: when McGuire sacrificed to rigl, The fifth inning was unproductive, but in the sixth Washington made two more runs. Shannon scratched out a hit, Hatfield sacrificed, Dolan muffed a tly from Sutcliffe, and both Dan and Elmer scored when McGuire banged ihe ball for a single. ‘The Nationals made their last raz in the seventh, when Alvord and Foreman took a turn at team batting, the former making a double and the latter a gingie in succession. A ROUSING EIGHTH. The eighth was a rowser from a Colum point of view. Five runs put the buckeyes within calling distance of the game and en- thused the crowd to the boiling point. Crooks and Duffee were out when Sneed bit for a base d both he and Twitchell trotted along when the latter was hit by a pitched ball, aud then further along on a wild pitch, secring together when Dowse hit for two bugs. Then Wheelock placed a single and three runs were tallied when Lehane lifted the bali over left feuce for four bases. MeGuire thought that this sort of thing had gone far enough, so he nabbed a high fly put up by Jimmy Donnelly and the inning was over. ‘olumbus scored one"o! the three runs nec- essary to tie the score in the ninth, when Di after forcing out Crooks, who bad been given a base, tallied on a two-base hit by Sneed. Washington made 10 hits and no errors and Co- lumbus 10 hits and 4 errors. OTHER OAsEs. Louisville lost again. Boston was the winner and 8 to4 was the score. Boston scored four runs in the tenth inning. Bufiinton and Mur- Phy and Stratton and Cahill were in the pointe Colonels made 13 hits and 3 errors aud the Beaneaters 10 hits and 3 errors. Kelly won from Baltimore again in the pres- ence of a vast throng of 375 people. The score was7to4. Baltimore was very rank in the field and weak at the bat, making 8 hits and 7 errors, while Kelly's men made 14 hits and 4 errors. The points were occupied by Duryea and Kelly, and Madden and Robinson. The Brown were prostrated in the dust again yesterday by the Athletics, 7 to 5, the meu from Philadelphia hitting lard and play- ing perfectly. Weyhing and Milligan and Suvetts and Munyan were in the points. St Louis made 8 hite and 4 errors, and the Ath- lotics 14 hits and Oerrors. ‘The winners mace a good bunching of hite in the sixth and took she lead by scoring four times. ‘TYPOS ON THE BALL FIELD. cinnati Enquirer how to play the game yester- day ina struggle at Capitol Park that resulted ia a vietory for the local typos by the score 10 to 5. ‘The visitors played very poorly in the field, while the “Al Printers,” from the govern« ment office, as they styled themselves, were in splendid form and might easily have been mis- taken for professionals had it not been for the ‘anusual amount of interest they showed in the game. Havdler and Fulton officiated in the points for the local men and Strack and Lyuch Hid somewhat the same act for the visitors Washington's knights of the shooting stick made 10 hits and 4 errors while the Knyuirer's men secured 9 bite and 10 errors. The sane teams may be viewed in the same sort of a struggle at the same place and same hour again today. BALL NOTES. Bobinson is now change for Kelly.

Dowd has been put down to seventh, and yesterday he was the only man who did not hit safely. He must be sulking, as it is understood that he kicks on being made to play in the field. Sutcliffe led the team in batting yesterday again with a three-bagger and a single. He went to first twice on halls and twice more on muffs, but his hits did not count as factors in the run getting. McGuire made a couple of singles and two sacrifices, all of which helped the score along. Krell gave treo bases on balls, Clark three, Twitchell two and Foreman seven, fifteen’ in all. Knell struck out three men, Twitchell two and Foreman eight, or thirteen in all. Foreman hit one man and made one wild pitch. The “Indians” of this city descended upon the quict village of Hyattsville the other day and there annibilated the Hyattevillian “Sky Scrapers” to the tune of 11 to 7.

The only nour- ishment he is allowed is a little light gruel at regular intervals. He is still hopeful he will conquer hia old enemy,and his indomitable will power greatly aids in the enduranee of his physical suffering, which at times is most in- tense. Mr. Scott still retains his grasp of busi- ness affairs and receives his private secretary in his sick room every morning, to whom he gives chrections regarding the day's transse- tom, Le Se ee Army and Navy Union Officers. ‘The Regular Army and Navy Union held the second day's session of their third annual con- vention yesterday in Boston.

Duffield of Michigan being chosen by acclamation. T. §. Clarkson of Nebraska, Petar B. Ayrcs of Delaware and Albert E. Sholes of Georgia werenominated for Junior vice commander-in-chief. Clarkson won on tho first ballot. For chaplain there were three candidates—8. B. Payne of Florida, D. C. Milnor of Kansas and A. B. Kendrich of Iowa. ‘Mr. Payne was elected. Surg. Gen. Benk T. Stevenson of Connecticut was re-elected by ac- clamation. Past Commander Wm. W. Warner, chairman of the committee on the address of the com- mander-in-chief, reported resolutions, which were adopted, petitioning Congress for legisla- tion providing for the custody and care of Mount McGregor cottage and for amendments to the Hovised Rtatutes providing more ex- plicitly that pretercnce be given tho old soldier government appointments and employment. THE RACE PROBLEM. Tho vexed “race problem” came up in the encampment in the afternoon and was effect- ually settled for all time. The special cham- pion of the negro race was ox-Congressman Warner of Missouri, past commander-in-chief. The matter came before the convention when Mr. Warner, as chuirmai of the committce on the commander-in-chief's recommendations, Presented the following report: “Your committee has carefully conmdered the clear and frank statements of the com- mander-in-chief regarding difficulties existing between posts in the department of Louisiana and Mississippi. ‘The committee has also con- sidered all the documents submitted to and arguments made before it as to the causes lead- ing to the existing trouble in those depart ments. The old posts, from one to eight in- clusive, in the departments of Louisiana and Mistissippt are composed of white comrades, The new posts, from nine to seventeen in- clusive, are composed of colored comrades. The contention is that the latter posts are tainted with {raud in their orgunization.” After rehearsing both sides of the dispute the report concludes as follows: “The remedy suggested of a separate dopart- ment of concurrent jurisdiction for colored Veterans involves an amendment to our rules and regulations, The committee ie informed that the requisite notice of the presentation of this notice fias been given, and therefore it is properly before the encampment for its action. This organization, the Grand Army of the Re- public, from ite birth at Decatur, Ill. in 1866, to this, its silver encampment, hns never turned fromits post doorsany deserving comrade, how- ever humble, on seconat of his nationality, ereed or color. ‘The only qualitication for membership i¢ on honorabie diagharge from the United States army, navy or marine vorps of 1861 to 1865 as the evidenow that he aided in maintaining the honor, integrity avd supremacy of the national government during the late rebellion, providing always that the applicant has done nothing in civi! life to cast s stain on his honorable record in liberty's cause. “During that fierce struggie for the life of the nation we stood shoulder to shonider as comrades tried. It is too late to divide now on the color line. A mar who isgood enough to afand between the flag and those who would destroy it when the fate of the pation was trembiing in the balance is good enough to be acomrade in any department of the Grand Army of the Republic. No different rule has been or ever shali be recognized by the sur- vivors of the Union army and navy. No de- partment should be established for any color or nationality. Last year, in national encamp- ment assembled, under the shades of Bunker monument, the accredited delegates of the G. A. K. unanimously indorsed the following words of a distingnished comrade: ‘It has been my determination to recognize as a com- rade the equal rigits of every man, no matter it his color or nationality, provided he has two qualificutions—service and an honorable discharge. In this struggle of life the strong the weak; it ennobles the former and helps to elevate the latter.’ ‘Lhe platform of principles of the G. A. R. is v0 broad that all honorably discharged sol- diers and sailors can stand upon it. In the opinion of your committee the tact that the de- partment of Louisiana and Mississippi consist of posts a part of which are composed of white others of colored comrades, is no sufticient reason for making this radical change in our rules and regulations. Our fraternity, charity and loyalty should be wit- nessed by our deeds as well as cur words. ‘The recommendation of the commander-in-chiel is bused upon the fact that seven of the colored posts of the department of Louisiana und Mis- tissippi petitioned for a separate department. Comrades representing a part of their post ap peared before the committee and claimed in argument that there was no understanding, aud that they were ouly petitioning for a depact- ment to be created in the state of Louisiana, the same as in other states, in which depart- ment all comrader. white and. black, shouid be equally entitled to membership, and, further, that they and those represented by them are opposceu te the creation of a separate depart- ment. ’ “In view of the facts submitted to your com- mittee it is of the opinion tuat it would be ex- pedient tu place the authority with the com- munder-in-chief to orguuize new or provisional departments in states in which there are orgun- ized departments, “William Warner, John P. Rea, Lucius Fair- child, Henry Painter.” 1'he following minority report was presented on the subject: “‘L concur in the recommendation contained im the address of the commander-in-chiet in reference to difficulties existing in the depart- ment of Louisiana and Mississippi, and, there- e, recommend the adoption of the following intion “Resolved, That the rules and regulations be s0 changed as to authorize the commander-in- chief to organize departments of the Grand Army of the Republic in departments now ex- isting whenever sutixfled upon proper repre- sentations that they may be organized without detriment to the Grand Army of the Republic, or avy department orgunizution existing in states embracea therein. == W. 8, Dick.” A HEATED DrscUssION. ‘Mr. Decker of Colorado, author of the minor- ity report, argued that it was not a question of drawing the color line. The colored men had separate schools and churches. Why not posts? ‘This brought out such a storm of hisses from floor und gallery that the president threatened to clear the upstairs portion, and Decker con- tinued by energetically insisting that they were not trying to draw the detestable color line. “Comrades,” said Maj. Warner, “when these black men, or white men, or whatever color or nationality they may lmve been, shouldered the muskets in defeuse of the Union it was nota question of etiquette or sociability, but a que tion of patriotism and loyalty. '[Applause. ‘The black man fought for a tlag that never, up to that time, bnd protected him in anything but boudage. better bury the old flag, comrades had better tear the buttor from the breast, than, now as our heads are silvering o'er with the frosts of years, to go buck on the principles for.which we bled.” (Applause.] He pictured the situa- tion when in the midst of the enemy even a black face may be the face of a friend. “Don't desert your principles at this hour!” he shouted, and the convention yelled for a full minute. 7 Comrade Johnson of Washington, a colored delegata, wanted to know why they were to be shcved off at this lateday and strongly attacked the minority. Another colored delegate, from Kentucky, mace a hot speech and when interrupted by Decker retorted: “Youare one of the ducks that hide their badges down our way while you are flirting with the democrots.” ‘this brought down the house and the uproar was terrific. : Gen. Lucius Fairchild made the speech of the day. He took the position that if ‘the colored men wanted to withdraw, av had been claim they ought to be at liberty to do it. It was evi- dent, however, that they did not want to. Past Commander Graham of Louisiana pro- sented the ease of the south in an imprssioned address. He suid that the idea that there was 4&4 disposition to drive ont colored men was erro- nevus. ‘Ihe speaker made a lengthy explina- tion of the Irregularities by which the first colored fained admission, and continued that while he find no objection to colored sol- diers, it was necessary to insist that the social aspect of affairs in the south demanded a change. There were colored men present who knew the status of affairs and knew that the present conditions could not continue.

On board were = number of Passengers that had been transferred from the ill-fated train wrecked near Port Byron in the fog of the Montezuma marshes yesterday morn- ing. The young man’s story was that of mar- velous escape from the very jaws of death. “I was tho only man that got out of the car unhurt,” he said, “for I don't count the little bumps.” He showed that he had been bumped all over the head, raising little mounds of bruised flesh. In one or two places there were cuts on the scaly from which the blood had flowed and dried up. He also bad a slight cut over the right eye. “My name is Arthur Hutchinson,” he went on. *¥ came from Portland, Me., and I am going to the Clifton House at Niagara Falls, where I am going to work.

You sce the rear baggage car tel- secoped the smoker and the front baggage car went right back alongside of us. Every man in that ‘smoker was hurt, except myself, and some in the day coach next to us were ‘hurt. ‘The sides of our car fell out, the roof fell in and that was just how things looked after it was allover. “Chen came screams, moans and groans aud we set to work to get | the poor fellows out. They were pinned down by timbers in all sorts of shapes. We cut them out with axes. Then the car took fire and burned up, and I am sure some bodies were burned. There were twelve dead men and about twenty-five injured. 1 saw one man eutirely scalped, but he was alive. Some of the bodies were all twisted and broken and bat- tered all out of shape. A man who was sitting Just acrowe from me was killed. ‘The groanin, | Was awful. I said that I saw twelve men, but | am sure there was more than twelve killed, as | 1am certain that some burned up that we | could not get out in time. One man we took | cut was sitting ona box all right outside, but | he begged me to lift him away. _I told him be | wasall right where he was. Then he said: | ‘Well. if there's any disturbance going on re- ember where Lam.’ Some of the rear coach were burned because we could not get them uncoupled and away from the burning smoker and baggage car. Everything in the baggage car was burned up. Our engine was knocked all to pieces. We ran into the rear of the freight train. They said it was the fault of the freigbt Hagman, but 1 don't know. They said the treight was going on to a switch and would have ven ali right in another minute.” Charles E. Langdon of Tecumseh, Kan., a suburb of Topcku, war a fellow traveler of Hutchinson and corroborated the latter's story. “I have been visiting my brother in New ¥ the president of the Central National Bank,” he said, “and am returning home. I was not hurt I wae in the day coach just in the rear of the smoker. IJ left the smoker about ten minutes before the wreck occurred and was dozing off to sleep. When I awoke the women in my car were screaming, and I found that a few pas- sengers in my car, were burt, but not seriously. screams from the forward car were terri- ble. We ail pitcbed in and helped as weli_ as we could to get the poor fel- lows out, but they were badly pinned in. I helped to cut out twe withaxes One died ina few minutes after we got him out. He cried for a priest, and somebody there—I don't know whether it was.a priest or not—gave the poor fellow extreme unction. T counted twelve dead, as well as I can re- member, but I could not say whether any were burned up. It was a very exciting time and I shall never forget it. I shall always remember the sereams and groans of the injured people, and especially of those that were pinued in by the timbers.” . ‘fhe man with whom Langdon sat in the smoker was killed. ae Bae READY FOR CHINESE RIOTERS. Foreigners at Hankow Are Armed With Breech-Loaders. A letter from an American gentleman at Hankow, dated June 23, recites the recent out- rages in that part of China against foreigners, as bas heretofore been published, and says, further: “At present we have two gun boats here, an English and «German, and rather enjoy that part. ‘There are at all points below here from two to three gun boats of different nations, so that for the present the matter is quelled in the Yangtse river valley. With the withdrawal of the gun boats,I think, unless there is a radi- cal change, there will be trouble all up and down the river. We have organized a de- fense committee here, put arms in the hands of all the male members of the com- munity, and are pretty well prepared for any trouble that ‘may arise. We can muster over a hundred breech-loading guns and wont of the men are experts in ending them. We have » commander-in- chief (our collector of customs), who is an old soldier, and twe division commanders—a Rus- nd myself. We have signals arranged to the community in ease of a rising against us and have two rendezvous on the river front, to which sll the women end children will be | taken in case of necessity, and where they will be guarded or placed on steamers, should there be any in port. Once the women and children are safely disposed of the men will do what they can ‘te defend the settlement. We will make it hot for any mob that comes our way, and don’t niake any mistake about it.” ‘Break.” ‘The steamer Alameda fron. Australia brings news of another escapade of John Sullivan's. One day while the steamer Mariposa was be- twoen Honolula and Samoa Sullivan arose at 11 o'clock in the morning and began to imbibe freely. By supper time he had disposed of thirty-eight glasses of porter and was uproari- ously drunk, Capt. Haywards ordered the bar shut down while the eighty or more passengere were at supper. Sullivan made his appearance and strongly protested against paing depeives of liquor. He made a scene and squared off to strike the captain, when there was a roll of the ship and John L. went down in a heap. He war seized, bound and taken to his state room an up. He obtainedyno more liquor during the remainder of the passage. Convention of Letter Carriers.

Primarily what an advertiser seeks is PUBLICITY for such announcements as he wishes to make. And the wider the Publicity the better, other things being equal. He might just as weil put the money | be pays for advertising into an old etock- ing and bury it in the back yard as to Print his inducements where they will not be seen by the particular people whose attention he aims to attract. What be Should use, therefore, is THE NEWSPA- PERTHAT IS READ BY THE LARGEST NUMBER OF PERSONS LIKELY TO WANT WHAT BE HAS TO OFFER. Mere EXTENT of circulation does not always insure the kind of publicity required by the advertiser, It is the QUALITY of cir+ culation that telis,as well as ite extent That, indeed, is the vital factor in the Problem the advertiser has to solve. Sen= sational and scandalous cess-pool jour- nals, that are chiefly circulaved in the slums of a city, and read by the riff-raff of the town, may and often do have a very considerable circulation, as the number of copies printed and handied indicate, but they are merely glanced at to see whether the new scandal is worse than the old one, ‘Qnd then tossed into the gutters, where they belong. They are consequently worth nothing to the man or woman whose aim 4s to reach reputable and responsible peo- ple who will probably become customers if sufficient inducements are held out. What is needed in such @ case is an en« terprising, bright, alert, clean-cut, cares fully edited FAMILY newspaper,one that can safely be put in any hands, whose Contents tell the whole world’s news story of today, (not of last week or yesterday) and which is eagerly and profitably read. from beginning to end every day by every member of the household, from its dual head down to the help in the basement, and especially by the ladies and children of the family, Such a journal is THE EVENING STAR. It has both EXTENT and QUALITY of - circulation within the field it occupies in @ greater degree than any other paper in the world. In these respects it is ebso- lutely without @ rival, anywhere, and’ there is no paper in Washington worth | talking about in comperison with it, Im verification of this claim, LOOK AT THE FIGURES: For the six months ending with the 30tiy; of June last THE STAR'S average daily circulation was 34,064, For ® popula- tion of 250,000 this aggrogate ts somer, thing phenomenal, even where the city of publication ts surrounded by prosperoug and populous villages and thickly settled agricultural districts, ee most places of that size are. In this respect, however, Washington differs from other cities, She 4s practically isolated, having few outlys ing towns subordinate to her or identified, with her interests, The circulation of THE STAR is, consequently, almost en- tirely @ HOME CIRCULATION, with @ larger percentage of the whole output regularly delivered by carriers at the res- idence of permanent subscribers within the city where printed than any other paper that can be named, no matter in What city or country the same may be printed. This is demonstrated by the fol- lowing daily average UNPARALLELED SHOWING: Served by carriers in thecity, - + 23,377 Miscellaneous sales, over coun- ter, by news stands, news-boys, Ms + es os OD By mail to outlying points, === 1,415 Total = = © = = ~ 34,064 There is no mistake or misstatement about these figures, They are substan- tiated under the solemn obligations of an, oath, and they may be further verified by an examination of the books of the ofice and inspection of its press and delivery rooms on the part of any person having interest in the correctness of the exhibit. Few newspapers are willing to submit to 60 trying an ordeal, But THE STAR does it cheerfully, It has nothing to cone ceal, and no motive for exaggeration. The truth is good enough for it, FAIR DEALING is ite business motto, As THE STAR in- sista on its right to know bow many pounds of ink it gets when it buys. barre} of that article,an@ how many pounds of paper it pays for in one of the immense Tolls delivered at its press rooms, 9 it 16 ‘Willing thet its advertising patrons shail know exactly HOW MUCH end WEAF KIND of publicity they are getting when they put an announcement in its columns, It claims to be THE one Washington pee per that is taken by the family, for the family, and read by the family, and es- Pecially by all the people in the city who ‘want things and are abie to pay for them, ‘and it is willing to have its claims sub- Jected to the most exhaustive and conciu- sive tests that can be devised. In other ‘words, and in short, THE STAR COVERS THE WHOLE FIELD. ITS FAMILY CIR- CULATION IN WASHINGTON IS THRER TIMES AS LARGE AS THAT OF ANY OTHER PAPER, AND THE NUMBER OF ITS READERS IN THE CITY 18 FIVE ‘TIMES GREATER THAN THAT OF ANY
