Cricaco, Nov. 92.-The Ives-Schaeffer billiard contest was hard-fought and well- played tonight. Schaeffer was invincible. Anything scemed possible to him and he passed his own world's rocora of 230 for a single run. He made before he went out on a difcult cushion bank shot to the corner from long range. Never as there such excitement at a billiard ch; nover before such_remarkablo pla ing in one inning as Schaeffer did. When he reached Tvos' record of last night, 181, the audience cheered lustily, but that was nothing to the enthusiasm displayed when he passed his own mark. Manager Parker announced before play began that the game would continue this NOVEMBER 23, 1893, ovening until either man had 1,600 points up. Four thousand is the total number to be played in five nights. Schaeffer had then 800 and Ives 0663, and it was Schaeffer's inning, he not having finished his run when the game closed last nignt. He left the balls in nis favorite anchor position, and in this way he added 73 to his score on his first play to- night. Rolling Hard for Ives. Ives then took hold. He played slowly and studied hard for position, but the balls were left bad and strive ashe might he could mot get them a-rolling right. He made thirty-nine hara billiards and went out. It was in the fourth inning that Shaeffer's big run was made. The way he got* the balls together was amazng. Ives had left all three of the balls well on toward the center of the table. When_ Schaeffer had scored eight billiards he had them anchored and there he held them until he ran his hundred after hundred without getting them over the line. Twice toward the end he got them broken and in- side the balk, but he drove them outand nursed them back again to anchor. He was then past 800 and it scomed as if nothing stood in the way of 300 more. But they broke sooner this time, and after nursing them the length of the table, he failed to ;'q\ml on a shot that was five to one agaiiist him, ‘When Ives took hold again, he was 500 be- d. He missed. Then Schaeffer began sing again and soon had the balls strad- dling the balk. He got in a run of seventy- By this time Ives had rocovered heart and he went to work cheerfull, He gotin a run of fifty-three and Schaeffer followed with only two. Ives came back again and this time got them on the side 1 and soon hung up ninety-six. Young Napoleon Closing Up. On the thirteenth inning Ives bega Schaeffer's ~deliberate tactics with im- mediate favorable resuits, getting in a run of 122, Soon Ives went'atit ugain and tais time played marvelous bilhards. He got them at one end and pluved them in aud out for 188 points. T'wo score of times one ball made a circuit of the tatle, but when all stopped rolling they were in' a cluster like the sign over “uncle's” door. Tnorder to get out of the balk line duriug ‘that run Ives was forced to make & long * rango doudle cushion bank at the corner vocket. He made it and brought down.the hou Irom then on Tves played as if for life. He quickly dimin- ished the distance between himsolf and Jake.
