The game yesterday between tors and the Chicago Orphans resulted in a victory for the visitors after about as miserably played contest as has ever been Witnessed here. The game was in har- mony with the weather, which was as dis- agreeable as could well have been man ufactured. Each team was guilty of many errors, those of the Washington men being in the majority. Their hits, however, were not, but five being made off Mattie Kilroy, who made his first appearance here since a member of the local team in 1892, and pitched such ball as will win from about any team in the league. Mercer occupied the rubber for the home people, and was connected with for nine hits, several of which would have been outs had the men back of him exercised to any great extent their mental and physical powers. It was a game, too, in which plays of the most brilliant character came side. by side with plays of the yellowest kind, and during the latter part of the contest it. was an open question which side could make the more of the latter variety. A stiif wind, almost a gale at times, swept across the field, chilling the small number of persons present and apparently enumbing the players, and-many of the hits which seemed when they left the bat destined for long safeties were stepped by he wind and fell in the hands of the play+ There was some luck ix this feature appeared to be all on tors. Dahlen, althouga ed with two errors, played a remark- able game, 5 stops and thro robbing seemingly sate hits. Wrigley al yed an in and out game, having twelve chances, but slipp! up times.

A special to the Philadelphia Inquirer from Boston, Mass., says: President N. E. Young of the National League arrived in town this morning from Belgrade Mills, Me. where hé spent last week in company with President Soden of { the Boston ‘lub, fishing for bass.

He is a linotype compositor on The Washington Evening Star, and has never been in my employ. When he left the ser- vice of the league he returned to Washing- ton and went to work at once at his trade. I consider him as a man as I ever met. He is a perfect gentleman, and in all the games I have seen him umpire, both this year and in former years, his work has been uniformly good.” Mr. Young will spend a couple of days here before he returns to Washington, Base Buil Notes. Get out of the rut. And we were going so nicely last week. The Senators will have bricks thrown at them instead of flowers if they don’t brace up. Manager Burns might put some one on the slab whom the Senators can hit. Er- rors didn't lose yesterday's game. Dahlen played a great game at short yes- terday for the Chicagos, yet his record was only eight accepted chances out of ten. Wrigley played poorly, but he accepted nine chances out of twelve. There is no kick coming on a player who goes aftef everything. Playing for a record is what makes the average “fan” wroth. About the only weak spot in the Chicagos’ makeup is Isbel, in right field; yet that player isn’t doing so badly. The same thing applies to Wagner in center. Considering these thitigs, the Orphans have no license to defeat the Senators three out of four games on our own grounds. Manager Burns is getting his reward tor having confidence in Mattie Kilroy. In the spring, when Kilroy was signed, an almost universal ery of derision went from the base ball writers o7 the country, and now Mattie is making them look like ten-cent touts, while Manager Burns simply looks pleased. The Senaiors have been ranked as a hard-hitting agx-egation, yet they se- cured but five safe ones off of Kilroy vés- terday. ( Jack Deyle is being used as a utility man by Manager Joyce. ‘ihe Giants have struck a_winning spot an‘ until this gives out “Scrappy” is safe. “wo or three defeats bunched will land J»:,xe on the bench ahd perhaps out of the ‘w York fold, and it is not a hard guess t‘: socate the play2r who will take his place. .~ Third Baseman E? »rfeld was given his ten days’ notice of :,y2ase by the Philadel- phia club yesterday 9 Detroit doesn't want him, and as a con*#kquence he is turned loose.

The principal business was the adoption of the report of the commit- tee on system of play. The committee— George W. Koehn, chairman; E. A. Buf- fington and H. S. Stevens—recommended the long-suit system as the most scientific, stating that it is prodactive of the highest intellectual pleasure and is the most suc- cessful in respect to trick-making. The committee also recommended that this system be initiated and carried for- ward by the use of the number-showing leads, the second, third and fourth hana plays, the conventional discar nels, all of which together co: is commonly known as the sy ican leagues.

Probably the best exhibition of sparring ever seen in this city was given by Jack Farrell of Wiimington and Arthur Jones of this city in their bout at Steubner’s road house last night. Farrell was the winner, but it cok him twenty-eight rounds to give the game District boy his quietus. The beys agreed to meet at 122 pounds, but Farrell forfeited $25 Jor being overweight. His weight was not stated, but he looked nearly twenty pounds heavier than Jones, who scaled within the limit. The bout was pretty even up to the close of the twenty- Seventh round, when Jones received a blow on the jaw that kno: ‘xed him senseless, The call of time enabled his seconds to re- vive him for the next round, but he was too weak to resist the savage attack of the Wilmington boy and was knocked down again and again until at last, being unable to rise, he was counted out. In a preliminary bout of six rounds be- tween Mtke Sullivan and Jack Hogan the former received the decision. Professor George of the Columbia Athletic Club was the referee in both events. CYCLING, Z Race Meet at the Park Track Friday Evening—Notes. The second race meet under the auspices of the Cross Country Cycle Club will be held Friday evening at the park track. The Cross Country Club is the leading colored bicycle organization in the city, and its mcet last year brought out all of the local colored fast riders. One of the races which will be most hotly contested will be the one-mile colored District championship. The honor is now held by William A. Lee, the son of a Georgetown feed mereha2y who succeeded in beating Dewey, the for- mer champion, by several lengths. He will have to work hard to uphold his reputa- tien, as West Dent, perhaps better known as the “black Schade; William Dewey, Watson Coleman, H. W. Freeman, all fast riders, are entered. Thomas McCorkle of Charlotte, N. C., is another entrant in the meet, and he, with the above, will fight for the race designated as the five-mile United States championship. Dewey claims to hold this honor at present. The entries will close tomorrow after- ncon. A mile novice for the youngsters will be held, and followed by a mile open. As the club does not recognize neither am- ateurs nor professionals, the races will follow each other without class designa. tien. The two championship events, and several ee bai also be run, and also a two-thirds of a mile open race, making atout seven or eight events in all. “Ladies’ nig” will be introduced at the next race meet of the Park Bicycle Club, which will be Saturday evening at the park track, commencing at 8 o'clock. This is the first of {@ seiies of ‘‘nights” that the management will have during the present season. Tickets of admission for the race have been peated, and these will be dis- tributed free of chatge among the members of the fair_sgx, om they can be obtained from the office of the president, Mr. J. D. Lasley, corner pf 14th and H streetspor Mr. William Jose, the manager, at 2125 Penn- sylvania avenue. These tickets entitle the ladies to any seat in the grand stand. The introduction of, these ladies’ nights, and the fact that the, prices of admission to the weekly meets have been reduced, are ex- pected to bring out’ large crowds. Next Tuesday ‘evening a race meet will be held at Atlanta, Ga., and it is quite likely that several riders of the Eclipse team will be sent down. Manager Jose ex- pects to send Walthour, whose home ts at that place; H. R. Steenson and Fred Sims. Possibly several more of the riders will be sent along. Another meet will be held Sat- urday, July 30, at Richmond, at which the full team of fourteen or fifteen men will most likely be sent. As race meets are held in other cities in the south, {t is likely that they will be taken in, provided the pro- grams _call for professional events. Jay Eaton of New York easily defeated Henry Cissac of France, in a ten-mile paced bicycle race at the Coliseum in Balt!- mcre last night. The American was just three-quariers ‘of ‘a mile to the good when he passed under the wire. Time, 20.37%. The one-mile professional handicap was won by J. L. Ives, Baltimore (13 yards); A. J. Murphy, Baltimore (18 yards), second, and Edward Wedekind, Baltimore (14 yards), third. Time, 2.00 3-5. Charlie Miller Going to France.

(a) That not only the French o 3, Lut the French crew as weil, evine ys: de- cided coolness and courage, and th§:., so far from hampering the passengers ig any way, they spared no effort to save thpse in spite of the latter's frantic madndps, a madness which, on the other hand§ now Proves to have been the real obstrnctfn to the sailors’ manéuvers for the salvat}on of all. j (b) That the ‘en‘who were guilty 4, the brutal acts so*4ustly condemned wer: not French, but Afstrian sailors, who, jwhon stoked in safely 6n the Cromartysnire’s deck, refused to letid aid to their French neighbors. n (c) That the ofly known case lof a French sailor laying: hands on a passbuger on that dreadfal night was that of a mein- ber of the crew, who, realizing that the final settling ofthe vessel was then a! mat- ter of seconds, forgot himself in his: con- cern for the ggfety,of others, and with all the noble imp: fee of and genuine inspired heroism _ seizi BYother Romaine, who stood rear by,“and ‘tossed him far out be- yond the reagh of the terrible suction which was to gngulf all within the radius of its power. It has been asked ‘why the truth wes not elicited before*the British coi why the Breneh se hurried u telligent inv<sligation, prevented?” Let me ask in turn why a British court should have sat onthe cadre when all the accused were French, whet the scene of the al- leged atrocities was a Frencii steamer, an when it was possible to reach a French admiralty court with so little delay? As to the second query, the thorough and searching investigation made by the above mentioned court.in New York is sufficient refutation of a taunt which is as unjusti- fied as ft is unworthy of a man of good faith. It ls sought to make material out of the steamer Delaware accident to prove the alleged infertority of the French race to other races. I he Uy join in all praise to the brave officers and crew who maaned, without loss of life. a vessel on fire. But to clatm that this is a case at all paral with the Bourgogne occurrence {s {ndee somewhat forced. The Bourgoxne sixty miles from the nearest land, was overrun with no less than 800 souls, and sank within’ half an hour.of the collision; the Delaware was two miles from land, had but sixty-one persons on board, in- cluding the crew, and burned so gradually that, though ‘the flames had been discover- ed at 10 o'clock at night, passengers were able to remain aboerd until rescued in the morning. That there two happenings -an in no way be compared seems as plain as the most rudimentary arithmetical axiom. I shall only add this: That if you wisn to know the difference between French and Frglish ideas of chivalry under such t ing “circumstances, compare the conduct of the Cromartysbire in immediately run- ning off from the scene of the disaster (the usual thing with Englishmen), and returning for a shert while, but half an heur later, when {t was all over, for the majority of the Bourgogne passengers, with the behavior of the same Bourgogne seme years since, when she co!lided with another vessel and laid by all nigat, never leaving the spot until the other had started safely again on its journey. JEAN F. P. DES GARENNES. July 12, 1898. — oo About, the President. Wash. Cor. Philadelphia Evening Star. President McKinley’s good health ts due primarily to a fine constitution inherited from his parents. He is also a man of ccr- rect habits—temperate in all things, with- out possessing the elements of the faaztic or crank; and, best of all, has not shown any signs of the “swell head.” Good nature assists him very much also in dealing with lke thousands of people of high and low degree who have sought favors since his inauguration. Worry kilis peon:e, not hard, honest work, is what the late George Ban croft, historian, statesman and philanthrop- ist, used to say. Our President doesn’t seem to fret. If he does few know’ any- thing about {t,-ind that is what enables hin to perform the heavy task imposed upon him by the nation. In many respeets President McKinley is more democratfe in bis dress in aot weather than any of our mpdern chief magistrates. No matter how, caloric the atmosphere, both Cleveland and ,Haryison thought it ineum- bent upon them in, public to wear the pro- verbia} frock goat and silk hat. Cleveland, ponderous and, flahby, with an ill-shaped head,running toa sharp point at the crown, always had on the bjgh hat. ‘4'o give a more decent appearance, and to detrae: from the enormous ,size_of his neck—a neck so great in circumference that it was said Cleveland did noi >have to unbutton the collar band tg,remove the shirt—his hat was provided .with an extra broad brim, which gave it gn old-fashioned look. Har- rison usually jyore here a nattier style of silk chapeau. ,Projably he had constant visions of “grahdfather’s” hat, so generally drawn in the caricatures during ‘he exm- paign, and wanted to get as far away from that style of nat as possible. President McKinley takes many drives, and goes ont oftener with Secretary Alger ‘than any other member of his cabinet. This is doubtless due to the fact that Secretary Day isn’t so fond uf dviving. These warm summer afteraoons the President can be seen comfortably clad in a thin black sack coat, white or checked waistcoat and light as well as the adult.

From the New York Times. In his cable letter from London, published in yesterday's paper, Harold Frederic spoke with brief but pithy phrase of the appar- ently near doom of the Latin races. He said that it was generally conceded among the northern races that the Latins were un- able to keep pace with the rate at which the others pushed forward.
