SENAT ‘The Local Team Shows That It Doesn’ Need Any Strengthe: —Gooa Work by All the Players. An ideal afternoon for base ball found about 1,000 people at National Park yester- day to witness the game between the Cin- cinnati and Washington clubs, and to add to the enjoyment the home club won by the score of 8 to 1, Mr, Charles Esper was very much in evidence, the game he pitched yesterday being one of the best of the season, the visitors getting but five hits, one of them a double® Chamberlain, some- times called the “Icycle” by his Cincinnati admirers, started to pitch for the visitors, but as usual he was found very easy by the local players and he melted away in three innings. “Silver” King replaced him in the fourth and did very well up to the ninth inning, when three runs were scored through good hard hitting. The game throughout was interesting, notwithstand- ing the one-sidedness of the score. This was owing to the hard hitting of the locals and the fine fielding of both clubs. Mr. Arlie Latham was in the game as usual and livened up things considerably by his really bright sayings and amusing antics. He was very successful in reaching first on balls and in stealing second, but the men back of him couldn't bat him in and this acted as a sort of blanket on his spirits at different times in the game. Capt. Comisky confined himself to coaching, Motz playing first in his place and did well. McGuire, Radford, Farrell and O'Rourke did the best | batting for the Washingtons, the former | securing three singles and a double, while “Little Paul” caught two singles and a double. The same strong nine was on the field as in the game the day before with the exception that O'Rourke and McGuire changed places, and again we won, strong evidence that this move is the right one. Manager Schmeltz witnessed the game from the grand stand, but like a wise gen- eral refused to criticise the playing of the locals. Today the same clubs play and with Meakin in the box should again win even if Frank Dwyer does the twirling for the visitors, Frank has got his second wind and is pitching about as well as any man in the league.

DOMINO WON. ‘The Favorite Captured the Rich Fa- turity Stake. Domino proved himself to be the worthy son of a noble sire yesterday at Sheeps- head by winning the great futurity stakes from a field of nineteen competitors, He carried the top weight, too, and was de- layed at the post nearly half an hour. Resides this the track was heavy and sticky. In short, it was just the day for a light weight, but he vanquished all of them, though one of them, Galilee, gave him a hard fight for over furlong and was only # head behind at the finish. It was the sixth of the futurity series of races and the best of any of them. It was the richest, too, for the gross Value of the stake was $65,665. It was divided as follows: $49,715 to Domi- no and $4,000 to his breeder; 35,383.53 to Gall- lee, $2,500 to his breeder; ‘$2,686.67 to Dob- bins and $1,060 to his breeder. ‘The field was the largest that ever started in a futurity race. It was composed of Galliee, Joe Ripley, Key El Santa Anita, Rubicon, Wernberg, Will Fonso, Fondo- line, Fatality, Ameer, Prig, Domino, Hy- derabad, Princess Aimyar, Appomattox, Sam Lucas, Dobbins, Ilusion, Jack of Spades, Figaro and Fotentate. Those scratched were Aurelian, Lucky Dog, St. Julian and St. Maxim. Domino was the public favorite, and though nearly every horse in the race was well backed he carried the bulk of the pub- le money, and as much as 7 to 5 wa: laid against his chances. Rey El Santa Anita and Dobbips were the next best liked and supported in the books. After a delay of nearly half an hour at the post Rowe caught them all in motion like @ cavalry line and down went the flag and they were “off.” The ends of the line closed in and the lot bunched up in a sort of funnel shape. Then Dobbins collided with Hyderabad and knocked Overton, his jockey, to the ground, but he was not hurt seriously. Taral took Domino to the front at once, hotly pressed by Guljlee, who was running Uke a ghost. The others were clattering at their heels like a drove of wild horses. The race was particularly between this pair. At the head of the home stretch Gaillee took the lead, and Dobbins had his head on a line with Domino's saddle girth. It look- ed desperate for the favorite for a moment, but the greatest jockey in America was on his back, and he began riding him with all his power and skill. Heel, hand and whip were used to such advantage that in another moment Domino began wearing his leader dowa, regaining his lost ground. The instant he poked his nose in front of Gali- lee a great shout went up. In the last furlong Griffin used every en- deavor to keep Galilee in the van, but it was a lilliputian against a giant, and Taral outrode both him and MeDermott and drove the gallant Domino home under such a, hail of punishment that he won by a nose on the very post. Griffin, by one last despairing effort, land- ed Galliee a head before Dobbins.” None but the judges could tell who had won, and when Domino's number was hoisted on high the most extravagant kind of a demonstration ensued. ‘Taral was present- ed with $5,000 by the Messrs, Keene. As Mr. Keene wandered across ‘the grounds after the race shaking hands with his friends he came across Mr. Croker and Mr. Dwyer. Their greeting was most friendly and cordial and their congratulations of the warmest. Preparing for the Regat ‘The joint committee on the Potorn: regatta met last night at the Columbia Athletic club house. ‘The general and sub- committees report]. The committee ap- pointed for the purpose will take steps at once to have the cours? surveyed. ‘The subcommittee on securing su>serip- tions to raise the funds necessary to pay expenses of the regatta is at work and will meet tomorrow evening to report. ‘The joint committee will hol] another meeting on Saturday evening, when the order of races wilt be presented by a sub- committee, All subcommittees will be ex- pected to attend the meeting. a English Opinion of the Repeal. The Westminster Gazette, liberal, of London says concerning the passage of the Wilson repeal bill through the House of Representatives: ‘The judicious action of Mr. Cleveland has assisted largely to change public sentiment toward the Sher- man act. His waiting politics allowed the country to pass through such a bitter ex- perience that it is not surprising to find a strong opinion in favor of a reversal of the policy which has landed the country in difficulties. The effect. upon business will be felt instantly.” The Pall Mall Gazette, William Waldorf Astor's daily, says: “When confidence and credit are restored by the repeal of the per- nicious Sherman act the task of fiscal re- form in the United States will become easier.” river oe ‘The French government has agreed to call a conference of the members of the Latin Union in Paris to decide the question of the nationalization of fractional silver currency. STRIPED CLOTHES Are Now Worn by John Shea, the Ex- Liquor Dealer. ‘This morning John Shea, the South Wash- ington “speak-easy” keeper, is an inmate of the work house and is clad in the distine- tive garb of that institution. After a long and tedious trial for selling liquor without a license, Shea being found guilty, a motion for a new trial and arrest of judgment was entered, and yesterday the motion was argued at considerable Jength by Messrs. O'Neill and Cook for the de- fendant. Prosecuting Attorney Mason N Richardson responded very briefly to the contentions of the defendant's counsel, and Judge Mills cut matters still shorter by remarking that he could see no real ground for granting the motions. “I therefore sen- tence the defendant to six months in the work house and a fine of $500. In default of fine six months additional in the work house. ‘The severity of the sentence was due to the fact that it was Shea’s second convic- tion under the new liquor law. Mr. Rich- ardson was warmly congratulated upon his Successful prosecution of the case. It is Supposed that Shea’s counsel will endeavor to secure his release upon a writ of habeas corpus. —_-—> LAST DAY IN CAMP, Harper's Ferry Will Mixs the Soldierly Sixth Battalion, Correspondence of The Evening Star. CAMP CECIL CLAY, HARPER'S FERRY.W.VA., Aug. 29, 189. ‘This morning the hot sun supersedes the flood and storm of last night. A high wind from the south, soutawest is still blowing occasional gusts, and it with the beaming win and splendid drainage of the camp grounds conspire to dry everything speed- ily. The terrible avalanche wag a sudden ap- parition. Trees were uprooted and carried to a distance, houses were unroofad, win- dows and doors smashed and the occupants fled to their cellars for refuge and protec- tion. Prof. Fava discharged his camera on the occupants and contents of the chapel, and then the boys rose to see their demolished homes in the. broad daylight. They were soon at work raising tents and spreading their clothing to dry, and now the camp is again in something ‘like order. Tomorrow morning early the tents will be pulled down, not by the storm, we hope, but by willing hands, having gained by ‘instruction and experience. Camp Cecil Glay will be but a recollection by tomot evening, and Monday night, the 28th of August, 1893, will be a memorable one to all those who were at the camps. In my last night's letter to The Star the |to be on the lookout. WARNED TIME. How the Hurricane Was Anticipated— A Telegram to the President. One of the most remarkable features in connection with the great storm of Monday night was the precision with which it was foretold by the weather bureau all along the line. From the time it was first ob- | Served last Friday it was carefully watched and the towns along its course were warned This very fact is thought to have largely diminished the loss of life and property in the path of the storm. Unusual efforts were made to have the Storm carefully observed. As soon as it Was seen that the hurricane would be a serious affair Maj. Dunwoody insisted up- on the necessity of receiving noon reports from all the observers on Sunday. This Was not thought to be a feasible plan, but he insisted that it must be done and, in Tact, it was carried into effect, and the Value of the forecasts was thereby greatly enhanced. Every possible effort was made to ha’ the knowledge of the coming storm spread sections of the country where pected to do the most damage. The observers at the different stations were instructed to us? every means to dissemi- nate information about its approach and re- gardless of expense to telegraph the news of its coming to postmasters and ovhers all over the sections of the country through which the storm passed. It was simply another case of forewarned being fore- armed. As was done in the case of storms this summer the fled ahead of time at his summer home on Buzzard's Bay. On Sunday at noon a tele- gram was sent to him telling him to look out for a storm and advising him to stay on shore until after it had passed. Speaking of this telegram this morning Secretary, Morton said to a Star reporter: “There was some question raised as to the Necessity for warning the President. but L placed so much confidence in the reliability of Maj. Dunwoody’s forecast that on Sun- day I sent a full and explicit telegram to Gray Gables advisin: the other great President was noti- reached here. His forecast was fulfilled to the very letter, in fact you might say, {talics or small caps., not only as to ‘the time ft would reach Buzzards’ Bay, but the intensity of the storm and its results, It was really surprising. Yes, 1 think there is every reason to feel satisfied and pleased with the manner in which the whole matter was handled by the weather bureau. 1 am sure the loss throughout the south would have been considerably greater had it not been that they were warned so far ahead by names of Lieut. Russell and Private Wig- ginton were omitted from the list of those who did meritorious work in the storia among the tents. Lieut. Russell, Privates Costello, Halford, Wigginton, Meter, Goode, Graff, Quinn “and Claggett and Frazier, Blush, Blakeley and Hoffman of the Dram Corps spent the night ut Mayor Doll’s residence. Private Quinn crawled through the back end of his falling tent and yelled for help. The barber's zent was among the first to go, and the chair was found some distance away from its original place. Some of the bugles were badly smashed up gnd filled with mud. Cudmore, Gleason and Ryder of the Drum Corps were kindly cared for by Mrs. Phelan at the Summit House. ‘The boys who went to Antietam did not at all like the idea of having to pay toll at intervals of two or three miles.

L.E.3. — MERCY TO CHILEA) Amneaty to Fort Supporters of the Balmaceda Administratio: President Montt of Chile has promulgated an amnesty law under which many politi- cal “suspects” will be released from fur- ther annoyance on account of their support of the late Dictator Balmaceda, whose overthrow led to the establishment of the present government. Under this law all Chileans who served under Balmaceda, except the members of Claudio Vicuna’s cabinet and the persons responsible for the Los Canos massacre, re permitted to return to Chile and re- sume all the rights and privileges of cit- izens. Vicuna and the members of his cabinet are now under indictment for various. of- fenses. There are also indictments against those connected with the murder of forty students at Los Canos, that number of young enthusiasts—sons of those then in revolt against Balmaceda—having been murdered in the most cruel and heartless manner. The government has refused to grant amnesty to those who were engaged in the plots organized last December and April against the government. Claudio Vicuna and the members of his cabinet will be prosecuted with vigor. see The London Price of Silver.

Representative Barnes Compton of the fifth congressional district of Maryland had an interview today with Fourth Assistant Postmaster General Maxwell in refereace to the Anacostia post office. The term of the incumbent, George F. Pyles, having ex- pired, he recommended the appointment of Julius Tolson. Mr. Maxwell is said to have told Mr. Compton that he ought not to make a recommendation as to the Anacos- tia office, it not being in his district. Mr. Maxwell further said that this office had given him great trouble. ‘The citizens of the town had called upon him in delegations; leading District democrats had looked upon it as theirs; Mr. Lockwood of New York had brought some pressure to bear ‘n con- nection with the place, and some Harrity | influence had been felt. Mr. Compton said that under the first Cleveland administra- tion he had named the postmaster, and that, althofgh the office was in the Dis- trict of Columbia, it virtually belonged to his district, being patronized largely by his constituents. He had been induced to rec- ommend Tolson because he thought that he was “about the best of the eandi- dates, and then Mr. Thomas Gray had urged his appointment.” It is thought that Ana- costia will have a new postmaster within a day or so. -o- Arrest of a Delaware Mail Thief.
