PFEFFER MAY CHANGE. ew Base Ball Moves Predicted by Umpire Gaffney. Umpire John Gaffney, who came on from | Louisville to officiate in the Washington- | St. Louis series, said last night at St. Louis: “I have it from a reliable source that Fred. Pfeffer will wear a Chicago uni- form again within a month. My informant tells me that the only thing necessary to complete the deal is Pfeffer’s consent to the transfer. Chicago will exchange Lange jand Decker for Fritz. “With Pfeffer at second Anson’s infield | will be strengthened where it was weakest. I regard Lange and Decker as very val- uable players, and am confident that the Colonels will be benefited by their acquisi- tion. Pfeffer is not satisfied at Louisville, and, as every one knows, some of the Col- onels “ave shown a decidedly unfriend'y feeling .oward him. This interferes with’ » usefulness to the team. “I regard the deal as a good one for all Parties. Say, it often occurs to me that the clubs might be improved by a judicious e change of players who have become dis- tisfied or unpopular. A change frequent- ly works wonders. There ts that conscien- tlous player, Roger Connor, for instance. He is free from care and annoyance and is bound to play good ball. Let me tell you something that struck me forcibly yes- terday. Roger's eyes were never better. He did not strike at one bad ball. The big fellow will strike his batting gait soon.’ Yesterday’s Games. In a great slugging match the crippled Phillies defeated the Ansonites by a score of 17 to 15, although the home team earned nine runs, three more than the visitors. Stratton and McGill shot them over for | the White Stockings, while Carsey fired them for Irwin's men. Jve Sullivan, late of | the Washingtons, made his debut with the | Phillies and made a successful one. He accepted nine out of ten chances and | scored two hits, one of them for three bases.

As a member of the Virginia State League Richmond has drawn such large crowds of spectators that it is believed a club in the National League would earn money.

Regarding ar- ticles, I could only sign those the club giv- ing the biggest purse would offer.” eee CALLED ON MR. JONES. ew Or- And the Result Was the Two Men Became Tied. William Simms, a young colored man,who is also known as Brown, or any other rame that will assist him in preventing his being identified, was an early morning caller at the house of William Jones, colored, on [2th street, this morning. William,although only | twenty-seven years old, has figured in a great many assault cases, but in some manner he always managed to elude the| police and escape arrest. Four years ago he figured in a bad assault case, but he was | never captured. This morning was the first time the police have seen him in many | months, and then it was only after he had called, as he said, to have a private con- versation with Jones’ wife. But Jones was there when he called, and, according to the statement of Policeman Brown, the men got “tied.” Mrs. Jones went to assist her husband to eject the intruder, who had broken open the door to enter the bouse. But Simms had no idea of leaving without trouble, and he grabbed a table Knife,which he endeavored to use on the occupant of the house. Policeman Brown appeared on the scene in time to prevent bloodshed, and the belligerent negro attempted to use the| knife on him. In this he succeeded no bet-/| ter than when he and Jones were “tled.” Finally Simms was locked up at the ninth precinct station, and later he appear- ed in the Police Court. He will not have another opportunity to call on Mrs. Jones for four months. —_-_ Marringe Licenses.

The new police regulations are ready for publication. They will be published in a handy book form, and will contain all amendments passed since August 8, 1892. The attorney for the District has recently reviewed them and finds them in proper form. He suggests, however, that the maxi- mum fine for a violation of the regulations Be reduced to $20, as such a limit would not only be adequate to secure proper en- forcement, but would facilitate prosecu- tions for violations in the Police Court. His suggestion will be adopted. a eee Epworth League Board. At the meeting of the board of control of the District Epworth League, Y. M. C. A.

But he always at- tended religious services at the asylum, al- though on one occasion a long time ago he was seen to do something that was not just right. Only $1 was involved at that time. After the exercises were over yesterday William remained about the building and after his departure Sister Agnes discovered that $150 had been stolen.

An important conference in regard to the present labor troubles growing out of the strike at the Pullman car works was held at the White House last evening. It began at a little after ¥ and lasted after midnight, and was participated in by the President, Secretary Gresham, Attorney General Olney, Secretary Lamont, Maj. Gen. Schofield and Maj. Gen. Miles. The last named officer has been on leave for the past two weeks, bnt, on account of the troubles at Chicago, had been ordered to re- turn to his post immediately, stopping here on his way in order to receive personal instructions for his guidance in the em- ployment of troops against the strikers. The usual reticence was observed in re- gard to the conference, but it is understood that it was decided to use the entire power of the government to preven: the threaten- ed paralysis of internal commerce. Future action would be based on the omler issued by the United States court in Chicago yes- terday, enjoining any and all interference With interstate railway transportation. That injunction was svugat by instructions j of the Attorney General, after a ful! con- | sultation with the President and members jof the cabinet. in ‘ts petition for an in- Junction the government alleges violations of the anti-trust act of July 2, 1890, the interstate commerce act and also the laws against obstructing er attempting to vo- struct the United States mails.

He says that the government is now in a position to act und that its whole strength will be used to prevent any interference with the railroads engaged in interstate traffic.

It will be recalled that the health officer called the attention of the Commissioners several days ago to the ruling of Jadge Kimbail relative to the alleged nuisance ox- isting at Buzzard’s point and stated tnat the office was practicully wthout any iaw to enforce the health regulations. ‘This state of affairs was communicated at once to the attorney for the District and he at once drafted a clause to be inserted in the pead- ing District appropriat bill, giving ihe regulations the force of law.

Koss Perry before the board. itis claim was that the Commissioners already had ample iaw on the subject and the pro- | poted legislation would be injurious to every business man. -Accordingly the p. sent back to Attorney “Thoma: amended his original draft and today sub- initted to the Commissioners the substitute. It adds a clause that the regulation shall | not be enforced against the carrying on of | any business mentioned therein which is not @ nuisance in fact. This, he says, wiil nave the effect of permitting a defendant, who may be prosecuted for a violation of cidinanese, to show, if he can, that nis bust- ness is not a nuisance injurious to health, > Sympathizing With France.

Further advices from Corea have been brought by the steamer Peru. Disaster af- ter disaster has been met by government troops, and when the Peru sailed the fall of the government was expected at any time. The garrison of the town of Zenshu fell into the rebels’ hands on May 31. The commanding general of the govern- ment troops, finding his army too small, is- sued notices for an enlistment of men, call- ing upon every village to send out thirty or forty. Soon afterward a company of 150 men offered themselves as volunteers. The general praised them for their loyalty and enlisted them. Encouraged by this, he re- solved to attack the rebels at Chojo. He marched toward that stronghold, but was met by the insurgents. Just as the two forces were going to en- gage in battle the 150 volunteers split into two companies with shouts and attacked the government troops. Hard pressed on three sides, at last the troops gave way. More than 400 of them were killed, and the rest took to their heels. The insurgents then marched to Zenshu, which they cap- tured in the afternoon. When the news of the defeat reached Seoul the government was bewildered, while the soldiers were filled with fear. The chief government of- cials feared the arrival of the rebels in the capital, and preparations were made for flight. At another time the government forces were encamped at Reiko, while the rebels took up their position in a mountain near Chojo. The former, divided into two com- panies, marched on the insurgent camp. The rebels appeared to number only about 100, and the government troops, when 300 or 400 yards from them, opened fire: but instantly thousands of rebels arose from ambush and routed the government troops, more than 100 of whom were killed or wounded. Later the king’s forces had a severe engagement with the insurgents near Chung Jul, a large town. The loyal troops were routed and the town fell into the hands of the victors. These successive defeats created the wild- est alarm in Seoul. All trade was suspend- ed and preparations were made to prevent the invasion of the insurgents. The troops were stationed at the gates of the capital in large numbers and forts were built around the place. Telegrams were sent by the government to China for assistance, and Viceroy Li consented to send a force of troops. Japan had taken alarm at the situation and had dispatched a large num- ber of soldiers to the scene. Their arrival frightened the Chinese minister, who at once telegraphed the viceroy for more troops, and the latest reports were to the effect that ten Chinese men-of-war had reached Jinsin, with about 10,000 troops. Six Japanese war vessels are also said to have reached the same point, with a large From the London Daily News. Since Canada and Australia are asking from the imperial government a subsidy of 75,000 for the proposed new steamer ser- vice between these countries, and also a guaranteed 4 per cent interest on a third of the cost of a new submarine cable, the opportunity has been seized by the impe- ria! federation defense committee to sug- gest to the government that these countries should in their turn take their share of the British naval expenditure. A memorial to the government has been drafted, and is being signed by members of both houses of parliament, setting forth that the royal navy, while it is employed and relied upon for the protection cf the whole empire, is provided and maintained entirely at the | cost of the people of the united kingdom. | It is urged that at the forthcoming Ottawa conference the representative of the united kingdom should be instructed to bring this fact before the conference at Ottawa, and to invite its members to declare the willing- ness of the countries they respectively rep- resent to take an equitable share with the united kingdom in the cost of the mainte- nance of the navy, provided that arrange- ments be made by which the various coun- { | tration of the funds so provided.
