Our Own Tailenders Break Even With Louisville Yesterday. Bad Weather Makes the Attendance Slim—Still at the Bottom ry of the List. Although two games were offered yester- day for one admission ticket, the threaten- ing weather kept the attendance down to about 600. The Colonels won the first and lost the second to the Senators, Stocks- dale was in the box for the Senators in the first game, and really pitched an ex- cellent game, but his support was of the filigree order—full of holes. Wittrock pitched for the Louisvilles, and kept the Senators down to seven hits, his support being very fine. Wise and Hoy were the chief offenders for the Senators, both hav- ing two errors. The former can be excused for his poor work, as he was playing out of his regular position, but the latter's in-and- out work the last month or so is a mys- tery. Louisville scored 2 in the second, 1 in the third and 2 in the fourth, @ total of 5, which was sufficient to win. The Sena- tors tallied all their runs in the fourth in- ning—2. O'Rourke started the ball rolling with @ sharp single. Sullivan tried to sac- rifice, but Wittrock made a mess of it, and two were on bases, with none out. Abbey hit toward second and was out at first, O'Rourke scoring on the play. Stricker made a hit and Sullivan scored. Stocksdale Went to first on balls, Hoy ‘singled, but Stricker was run down between third and home, retiring the side. First Game. WASHINGTON. ‘LOUISVILLE. eae: ak Hoy, cf. 10 27.

The Second Game. In the second game Meakin went in the box for Washington, and, as usual, the team played with great confidence, win- ning by the score of 3 to 0. Stratton pitched for the Louisvilles, and pitched well, but for once the home team were determined to win, and win they did. The entire nine put up a snappy game, and, although se- curing but six hits, were never headed. The visitors secured but four hits off Mea. kin, two of these being made by Twitchell, a Washington cast-off. The flefding of the iaitors was brilliant, but their two errors ere costly, being responsible for two of Washington's runs. They worked two of their men around as far as third on two ifferent occasions, but this was as far as they could get. Sullivan and McGuire did the heaviest hitting in this game, the former getting a single and a triple and the latter two nice singles. Umpire Emslte umpired impartially, and little kicking was indulged in.” The same clubs play again to- lay. WASHINGTON.

A large and disorderly crowd of women and children assembled in front of the St. Francis Catholic Church at Nanticoke, Pa, Tuesday evening to witness the marriage of two prominent people of the town, Miss Katle McGuire and Dominick McHale. When the church doors were opened the crowd surged up to them, but were inform- ed by the janitor that the marriage was to be private. The women hissed the an- nouncement and said they would aot be kept out of the church, and began to heap such abuse on the janitor’s head that he shut and locked the doors to protect tim- self. The crowd took possession of the steps in front of the church, and not only blockaded the passage, but also ridiculed and insulted the occupants of the carriage when it was driven up to the entrance. Father McGuicken tried by every quiet means to get the mob to open a passage, but they fought the priest, cursed him and called him vile names, until finally, out of tience, he took the carriage whip and Inia about him with might and main. ‘He lashed the women with ail his streasth and called upon them to stand aside. Many of the women, some of whom ‘vere drunk, turned upon the priest and fought hack stubbornly, tearing pickets off the fence to assault him with, and one, whose reputa- tion ts not the best, stoned him. He finally got the wedding party Into the church, locked the doors and after the worst of the tumult was over performed the marriage ceremony. The crowd then blockaded the exit and held the party in the church for an hour, when a squad of constables ar- rived on'the scene and dispersed them. —S MALTREATED BY BURGLARS, A Man and-Wife in Altoona Suffer at the Hands of Brutal Me: One of the most dastardly crimes ever committed in Altoona, Pa., was perpetrated on Mrs. and Mr. Anton Greiner at their home early yesterday = morning. Mrs, Greiner, who had gone into an adjoining room to investigate a suspictous notse, re- turned to the apartment in which her hus- band was sleeping and found ‘iim uncon- scious. She was about to call on a nelgh- bor for assistance, when she was seized by three masked men. into her face and a cloth saturated with the drug was held to her nostrils until sne lost consciousness. The thieves bound Mrs. Greiner and treated her to many indigni- ties. They tled a rope about her neck and dragged her about the room. The burglars Went through the house and secured #0 and several articles of value. Yesterday morning neither Mr. nor Mrs. Greiner be- ing seen about the house the neighbor forced open the door and found both vic- tims still unconscious. A physician soon brought Mr. Greiner to, but Mrs. Greiner did not recover consciousness until 10 o'clock last night, and is’ still in a precari- ous condition, +02 President Ding Interfere, A conflict occurred last evening near Abasolo between 25) cardinistas and a party of Galen men, resulting in the rout of the latter party and the killing of four of their number.

Representative Cummings Reminds Them of Occurrences at Chicago. Representative Amos J, Cummings of New York ran the steel deep into the Vitals of his southern colleagues in the House yesterday afternoon. He was speak- ing in reply to the speech of Mr. Stock- dale. in which that member criticised the New Work democracy because they were in favor of the repeal of the Sherman law. “More than two-thirds of the votes from the south at the democratic national con- vention,” he said, “were given for the nomination of Grover Cleveland for the presidency. These votes were cast in the face of letters from Grover Cleveland de- fining unqualifiedly his attitude upon propositions, before the House. I will not quote them: You will all recognize them. No man, friend or foe of Grover Cleveland, has ever accused him of going back on or abating one jot or tittle of his convictions. He is as firm here as the rock of Gibraltar. Yet, in the face of the protest of the sev- enty-two delegates from New York, over two-thirds of the southern delegates to this convention forced Mr. | Cleveiand’s Romination to the presidency. | Missouri and Arkansas voted solidly for him, and a com- mittee from the New York delegation tried in vain to obtain a hearing before the Ar- kansas delegation. On that committee were two delegates who had voted for free silver in the south to preserve the south from the horrors of the force bill. “Sir, the time to enter a protest on the part of the Missouri and other southern Gelegations was then, not today. The time for you men from Missouri to say that you woula desert the standard of the democracy unless free coinage was accepted w: then, not today. The New York democracy bowed humbly to the will of that conventioi ‘They loyally accepted its candidate and its plat- form, and ‘Tsay to you men of the south here today that it was her vote that gave you the plank for tariff for revenue only. They have never deserted the south tn her hours of trial. ign stood by her years ago up to the brink of the rebellion. They stood by you in crucial moments in the Fifty- first Congress. Common honor, let alone chivalry, requires that the south shall not desert them after placing them in the pos! tion that they occupy today. We are sup- ting your candidate and your Presi- Sent honestly, loyally and proudly. “[ will except one southern state, Mr. Speaker, and that is the plucky state of South Carolina. Her delegates, recognizing ‘apparently the situation in Chicago, cast ry vote but one against the nomination of Mr. Cleveland. They ought to bow to the wiil of the convention, as New York has rent excuse, if ;, but she has an appa SreSaesires to avail herself of it. South Carolina in this House today jes the same attitude. All but one of her Repre- tatives in this Congress refuse to accept ‘the recommendation the President's message, “The New York democracy obeyed the mandate of the Chicago convention. They went to the front in the line of battle. They pierced the enemy's center, and the democrats of the est and south closed in upon their flanks and routed them. Sir, the New York democracy today stands by the pledges that were required of her al Chicago. She <a not only the nom- inee, but the platform. ‘What is the platform? Did it declare in favor. of the repeal of the Sherman act, with free coinage at 16 to 1, or 17 to 1, or any other ratio? No, sir. Then, why is it that gentlemen who advocate this qualitic: tion of the President's recommendations are accusing shed York democrats of re- udiating the platform? payou, yourselves, are the repudiators. You, yourselves, ate responsible for the President of the United States, and you, yourselves, in view of his letters before the nomination, ought to have the manliness and common honesty to stand by the dele- rates from New York in carrying out his recommendations after you selected the candidate for us. “But you are unwilling to trust the President you selected, in the face of the protest of the New York democracy. We are. You are not. And you take us to task for it. Is this honorable? I thank the southern democricy, who, while teach- ing the New York democracy a lesson, are teaching themselves the lesson they are receiving today. It is a dishonest doc- tor who repudiates his own medicine. “Take it like men. Stand by your party. Don’t show a lack of ‘sand.” Don't get up here, as we have seen southern demo- crats day after day and night after night, coached by guerrillas from Colorado and pulist jayhawkers from Kansas, arraign- toy and condemning the President of the United States for standing by the people. Stand by the New York democracy as the New York democracy have stood by you.’ dod ges FOOLED OUT OF HIS MONEY. How « Ruxton Farmer Was Fleeced Out of 83,000. Another case of the so-called “flim-flam” game has just been played, the victim in this instance being Mr. Edward Rider, a farmer living about a quarter of a mile from Ruxton, on the Northern Central rail- road. Mr. Rider, according to the Baltimore American, was visited by a strange man, ho, wished, he sald, to buy land. and while driving to inspect the property they met a third man, who afterward proved to be the accomplice of the first, No. 2 stopping Mr. Rider, and No. 1 got’ into a conversation and finally offered to show them a game he had learned in Havre-de-Grace. It con- sisted in betting his accomplice that he could not tell which of four pieces of paper had @ spot on the under side. After No. 1 winning first $10 and then $5,000 in this way No. 2 bet Mr. Rider that he could not do the same, whereupon he fell into the trap, and Mkewise won, first $10 and then $3.00), of what appeared to be nbacks, which No. 2 jed in a box. No. 2 ‘said he did not care to bet with people who had so lttle money. Mr. Rider then drove to Towson, where he drew from the bank $3,000, and, returning, placed it and the joint winnings of No. 1 and himself in a box, which was furnished by No. 1. No. 1 then said he would drive No. 2 to the city, as he did not think it safe for him to go about the country with so much money, and would return at 6 o'clock and divide the winnings with Mr. Rider, in whose care he left the box, taking the key with himself. When Mr. Rider forced open the box at the expiration of two weeks, Ni 1 not having yet returned, he found a piece of wood wrapped in paper. Mr. Rider thinks the two men took his money from the box when he got out of the buggy. Mr. Rider is between seventy-five and eighty years of age. a HIS CAREER CHECKED. What the Easy Life of a Bookkeeper Cont a New York Hotel. The doubt surrounding the cause of the disappearance of William P. Wentworth, the bookkeeper of the Victoria Hotel, New York, was cleared yesterday by his arrest on a charge of stealing $8,750 of funds be- longing to the hotel. Wentworth has been missing since Au- gust 5. Manager Vansant at that time said that he thought there was nothing wrong about his confidential bookkeeper’ that he belonged to a good family and had the reputation of being a man of exemplary habits. A large interest in the Victoria Hall is controlied by Mrs. Floren- tine Stanfield as guardian of her sor Douglas M. Stanfield, to whom it was w ed by his grandfather, Mark M. Stanfield, of the big Boston dry goods house of Sta field, Wentworth & Co. The Wentworth in the firm js the father of William P. Went- Worth. Mark Stanfield directed a clause in his will that the Stanfield interest in the Victoria Hotel should be represented by a bookkeeper there. Young Wentworth was chosen for the position. It was Mrs, Stan- field who first requested the police to look for Wentworth. She did it reluctanuy, and only after the experts had shown hr be- yond the shadow of a doubt that Went- worth had appropriated $8,750 of the ho- tel’s money. The police found that two Women Were connected with the cas2, One is Miss May Dilkes of 133 West 56th street, and the other is Miss Bessie Livinssto1, Miss Dilkes lived in a flat of her own. Miss Livingston was installed in a fashionable | 5th avenue boarding house. The detectives traced Wentworth to Pittsfield, Mass. from there to Hamilton, Ont., then ‘back t Pat- chogue, L. I. They next heard of him in Canada again, this time in Clayton, Ont. From there ‘he went to Saratoga, and he left there Tuesday, and was arrested yesterday in a Jersey City railroad station. During all his wanderings Wentworth lad gone under the alias of J. B. Williams. _ —— The French Canadian Convention. ‘The many delegates to the French Can- adian convention, headed by a brass band, marched to the Church of Notre Dame in Chicago yesterday, where solemn high mass was celebrated. “The procession carried an. immense American flag. which mingled with the gold-fringed folds of a great tri- color of France. The band played the in- spiring strains of “Vive la Canadienne.” ‘The convention held a special session Tuesday night on the question of seating Honore Mercier of Montreal as a delegate from the Association of John the Baptiete of Boston. His eredentials consisted of a letter signed by the president and secretary of the association. A Boston member clial- lenged the credentials. Mr. Mercier was at one time the premier of the Dominion ge ernment, and the challenge of his creden- tials elicited a warm and lengthy debate, He was seated after three hours’ discussion.
