In every’ National League base ball game but one played yesterday the west suc- eumbed to the east, and the local contest was no exception. Washington and Pitts- burg had it hot and heavy for two hours and a half, for it was almost dark when the last man was declared out, the ninth inning being played while enthusiastic bleacherites burned newspapers in an at- tempt to dispel the gathering shadows and at the same time ridicule the umpire for ruling that play should continue. It is perhaps needless to say that at that stage of the game the home club was in the lead, but it had not been so for any length of time. Matters, ta fact, were somewhat vacillating. After the second inning and un the eighth it seemed a certainty that Victory would fall to Pittsburg, locals near the wind-up indulged in one of those nerve-shattering, Garrisonian per- formances, and not only tied the score, but added a comfortable margin to the gocd. Pittsburg was sent first to bat, and Silver King made his appearance as twirler, for the first time in several weeks. It was evident that he had not fully recovered | xladsome from the injury that necessitated bis ab- sence from the game, for during the two innings he pitched the Pirates just had lots of fun—so much se that the fans felt very sad and haliooed “Take ‘im out.” Seven hits and four runs were what the other fellows did te King in those two Innings, and then Marager Schmelz cried “Hold, enough!” Young Norton was sent in in the third, and for the five succeed- sng innings Pittsburg made but one hit, and but a total of four during the remain- der of the game. Washington did not do anything to be proud of until the fourth. Then two hits and a base on balls permitted one tally and two more were added in the fifth, on a sin- gle, a two-bagger and some very clever base-running. For the next two innings It looked as though the score would be a rep- ion of the record of Wednesday, 4 to 3, th the leaning toward Pennsylvania, but proceedings occurred in’ the eighth. Selbach, the first batter, struck out, but McGuire followed with a cracking two-bagger to the left. Smith promptly did likewise, and tne score was tied. Mr. P. Hawley of Pittsburg was appar- ently succumbifig to rattles, and the coach- ers and the speciators vigorously endeav- ored to add to the affiiction, and with un- expected success. O'Brien hit safely to the short stop, and Tom Brown drove the ball to the far right for three bases. Nor- ton also hit safely, and when accounts were balanced it was found that the seance consisted of tiv is, including a triple, twe doubles and two singles, for a total of four runs. This was very refreshing to the sena- torial contingent, but Connie Mack gritted his teeth and said things under his breath that were capable of exterminating in- sects. In the ninth Pittsburg worked in another run, but it did the visitors no good. The game ‘was replete with wrangles and jangles, friction among the Pittsburg players being noticeable. Had Norton pitched the entire game the men from Smokeville would not nave been in the game for a moment. But mayhap it was as well. Washington overcame a big lead, and right handily, too, so no ground exists for complaint or indulgence in “ifs.” The score: RG.

Harry Weldon in the Cincinnati Enquirer indulges in the following interesting, if not entirely accurate, gossip: Amos Rusie, the celebrated thunderbolt pitcher, will next season be a member of the Washington (D. C.) club. At least that is the story that is floating arcund the eastern base ball circuit. Ever since “Scrappy Bill” Joyce joined the New Yorks he has been doing his utmost to patch up an amnesty between his president and the hoosier pitcher. Failing in this he has decided to do the best he can in the way of a trade. It will be remembered that I stated In my special from Washington yes- terday that Earl Wagner, president of the Weshingtons, had filed charges with Presi- dent Young against the captain of the New Ycrks. As I understand it, the players that Joyce offered bigger money to play with the New Yorks, if they could get away from the Washingtons, were Selbach and De Montreville. “Scrappy” played alongside of both of these players and is thoroughly conversant with their worth. New the talk is that the charges filed by Wegner against Joyce will not be pressed, but that a deal is on whereby Rusie is to be exchanged for the two players men- tiored. De Montreville is recognized es one of the greatest youngsters that ever played ball. Selbach is also one of the greatest outfielders in the profession. He is a Columbus (Ohio) boy. In making this trade Freedman would be “killing two birds with one stone,” fig- uratively speaking. To start with it is hardly possible after what has occurred thi eason that Rusie would give the New Yerk club his best services next season. No matter how much he might try, the soreness would still _rankle in his bosom, In trading him to Washington Freedman would figure on revenge by piacing him with a team away down in the race. Pos- sibly the success that attended another deal made by the New York club with the Washington club may have some in- fluence on the present deal. In the fall of 1893 the New York club paid the Wash- ington club $ for the release of Meekin and Farrell. The money was well ex- pended with Meekin and Farrell, the Giants finished second in the race in 1894 and played for the Temple cup. The Joyce trade is also to the liking of the Giants. Is it any wonder that Freedman should have a “hankering” for senatorial talent. Possibly the deal has not yet bean consum- mated, and the publication of the story will likely bring forth denials. From a reliable source, a man very close to the throne of the Washington club, a hint of this deal was given late last night. There are a number of other deals on the carpet. There is going to be a “rattling of old bones,” and several league teams will be shaken from center to circumfer- ence between now and next spring. At ieee that is talk that is “going along the jine.”” ROAD RACE TO RIVER VIEW. Wheelmen Invited to Enter and Will Be Charged No Fee. Prizes for a road race from Washington to River View have been offered tu the local wheelmen by Capt. E. S. Randall, proprietor of that resort. This ts done to ascertain in what time the distance, about seventeen miles, can be made.

Ober, 410 8th street southeast, and all cn- tries must be in by Thursday, September 3, at 7 p.m. WRENN CANNOT PLAY. The Tennis Champion is Laid Up With a Sore Foot. ‘The international tennis tournament at Niagara yesterday was interfered with by the rain. The day was cool. While the playing was excellent, still there was much disappointment that Bob Wrenn, who won the American championship at Newport the first of the week, was knocked out by a sore foot and will not be able to compete. There was a large crowd of spectators, who displayed an unusual amount of enthu- siasm. There was a hurrying and scurry- ing for shelter on the part of the ladies when the rain came up. The courts were made quite heavy, and the events were prolonged in consequence. The scores were as follows: Championship singles, preliminary round ¥F. H. Ward beat A. C. McMaster, 6-1, 6—1; J. F.

Young of the National League has mailed Captain Joyce of the New York base ball club a letter warn- ing him of the consequences of attempting to secure players from other clubs by an offer of an increase of salary. Jz is sald that Joyce approached a member of the Washington club with this intention some time since. Mr. Young said, in regard to the matter, that this would end the incl. dent. ‘The ‘case, he sail, was not an un. usual one. A warning to the offender hus always been sufficient, and punishmen never been inflicted.

The club will open six more twouyear-old stakes later and the money offered will make a ipso tetal of over $50,000. WHEELM AND ‘SILVER Views of a Bicycling Journal on the Inanes of the Day. From the Bleyeling World." >) When the average cyclist starts out to buy a new mount, he knows that its cost will look quite large on the debit side of his private ledger, bué he‘pays the price asked, knowing that his machine repre- sents “full value for ever§°dollar” plus a reasonable profit, without which there would be no incentive for capital or braing, to embark in the cycle trade. He pays $100 under our present! ¢mancti#l system goes away satisfied. If the gold basis, upon which American enterprise in the past has been founded, should be, in the maelstrom of political life, replaced by that of silver—an ever fluctuatirg commodity—what kind of a bi- cycle would $100 in the white currency buy? Surely not one from our old established and reliable factories, whose 1896 products are admired in every iand and clime. The modern bicycle is worth $100 in gold or its equivalent, and let no one think that it could ever be bought by $100 in a debased coin worth about 53 per cent of the same amount in gold—the standard of the com- mercial world. One hundred doliars in sil- ver currency, unsupported by an ample gold reserve, would buy a bicycle that re- tails now at about $# or $5, and those made of the best materials and werkman- ship would cost nearly $200 in silver. Rea- son any way you choose, this is the inevit- able conclusion. When a person goes in quest of a bicycle, he naturally aims to make his money ge as far as possible. He is no admirer of high prices, especially if he knows that they are put up artificially. No theories for the in- dividual who wants anything and is count- ing out the money with which to pay for it. The proposal of the advocates of free s!lver to put up prices to consumers by debasing our currency will not be likely to strike the fancy of the purchaser who comes to understand it. Bicycles are paid for by a draft upon in- come, and the latter is worth just what ft will purchase. Free coinage 1s, therefore, for the wage earner or the salaried man, a device to reduce his income by nearly one- half. Imagine the feclings of a would-be cyclist who had dollar by dollar saved up a hundred or so by the strictest economy and put it in the savings bank, drawing cut of the bank an amount which would, while the country was on a gold basis, have purchased the best bicycle made, and pay- ing it all for a medium or low-grade mount under the free silver regime! It can be taken for granted that the gy- clists of America are too shrewd to join in the senseless clamor for a financial system which would make the problem of obtain- ing a new wheel one of double the usual proportions—if not, indeed, endrely out of the question with the rank and file. The question is one that concerns the manu- facturer, dealer and rider alike. Each would suffer by such a radical change in our financial system. —— EMANCIPATION IN ICELAND. and The Icelandic Woman Has Long En- Joyed Distinct Individuality, From the San Francisco Wave.

Does Not Want His Name Presented at Indianapolis, Nebraska will send eighteen delegates to the gold standard democratic convention at Indianapolis. They have not been in- structed for any-particular candidate. A prominent administration democrat has re- ceived a letter from Secretary Morton, in which the latter positively refuses to allow his name to go before the convention, and requested his correspondent to see that it was not proposed by his Nebraska friends. Although Mr. Carlisle has some supporters in the Nebraska delegation, there is a strong sentiment among the local democrats in favor of Henry Watterson and Gen. Bragg as the best obtainable men.
