The lmpcRil chiilrinnn of the ltepubll-
can ntsite cemnitltcu recently umlcrloek
te explain Ills hopefulness ly pelntlnR
Willi tirlfle te the condition of the party
In sevcrnl nlntcs which nre supposed te
have sumo Inlluence upon political con
ditions In Pennsylvania. Since then
SDrnc events have transpired which in
dicate that the assumed hopefulness of
, Sir. Cooper was premature. In Ohie it
appears that while- the Doinecratic dis
tractions ever the contending factions
interested in leglslntlve candidates have
net been allayed, there is a reasonable
confidence that this very condition of
things will bring out such an increasid
Domecrittlc vote for governor that
Headtey'a chances of election arc mate
rially strengthened. Tlie Republican
candidate Iras net niade any impression
upon the canvass In I foadley's absence;
bis party displays a notable lack of en.
thuslasm, the German vote 13 very solid
for lloadley and the Democrats are
hopeful that the coming two weeks of
the canvass will witness romarkable
developments of strength for their
slde. In Massachusetts the Republicans
had unexpected difficulty in flndin : a
man te stand up against Butler ; and
new that be is found he stands mere
than an even chance of being beaten. In
New Jersey Mr. Abbett, the Democratic
candidate for governor, te day begins
what Is te be an uninterrupted agressi ve
canvass of Ids state ; he is a hard lighter
and a strong man ; there is every indi
catien that he will win. In Maryland
the nomination of Mr. Mclaue by the
Democrats has relieved every apprehen
sien that w.is felt of Democratic divisi n
and corresponding weakness : white in
Virginia the contest against Mahone is
being waged with a strength and a cmll
deuce that have net heretofore ch iac
terized the management of the Deme
cratic campaigns there. Meat remarka
bio of all recent political developments
is the apathetic and hopeless condition et
the Republican party in New Yerk ; it
has given up the contest in advance
There is everything in this condition of
affairs te encourage the Democracy of
Pennsylvania. Of that great group et
states or central and controlling power power
Ohie, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania'
Xew Jersey, .New Yerk and Massaclm
setts tiie Republicans are net certain el
a single ene ; and one that is lest this
year cannot be reclaimed. Mr. Coepci
hopefulness will have te be revised.
Ceunrlluiuulc .Smartness.
Our cotemperary, the Aeto Eta, lias
been repersuaded, by the success which
has largely attended the laying of under
ground electric wires, that " the pelis
must go." We would that our council
men had the like intelligence witli which
te read the signs of the limes. The fact J
of their contracting for the i-lectnr
lighting of tlie city and six hundred and
fifty ugly wooden poles at this period,
when the Heedlessness of the poles is fully
demonstrated, shows in a lamentable
way hew serious an undertaking it is te
hammer a proper knowledge into a
councilman's head. Ne doubt the inten
tlen was a laudable one which inspired
thU contract. We de net suppose lli.a
any of the ceuneiltnin who favored it
had auy ether inethe than thegm.def
the city. Rut lhe did net knew enough
te bundle the subject wisely. They did
net knew. i geed electric light fiein a
bid one, and probably very few knew
heiv the light was pi educed anyhow.
The lamp committee te which the par
ticular management of the bushiest w-.i-.
intrusted happened te be particul.u l
igneraut in the matter. Tiiey knew a
geed deal perhaps about semethings, but
about electricity nothing. Se they bai
gained with some Philadelphia specula
tors thai they should light the cit bv
electricity and left it enliiely te them te
say hew. Tlie question el overgreund or
underground wins win net consuleied.
The lamp committee probably had m-u r
heard of uudei ground wires. It is a pity
that they did net understand theii bul.
ness better, and the next time a commit
tee is instructed by councils te de work
which requires scietttillu Information te
be well done, it might be proper te have
a college professor te give them a few
lessens In physics. Rut peilmpsit 11 or
no use ; ceuncilmeu who lead the news
papers dally and then ate net sensible
enough te refuse wooden poles room in
tlie streets could hardly be taught any
thing by anybody.

The day of the sheeting of I'rcsideut
'Sarilcld by Cmitcau, District Attorney
Corkhill ei:gat;ed a young lawyer ntnl
ntcngraphir te go te tlntteau's cell and
reiHiit an interview between tlie district
attorney and the assassin. Kdmuud A.
Ilailey was the name of the icperter, aud
by representing himself te Ouiteau -as an
attaehe of the N'ew Yerk UtraUl the
assassin talked very freely, and the inter
view was turned ever te Colonel Corkhill
ami became part of the receid iu that
celebrated case. Afterwaids Riiley made
freque.it trips te the jail and Ouiteau told
him the story of his life. Bailey was well
paid for his services and subsequently he
sold copies of his interviews te the Jleralil
exclusively, receiving therefer $1,500 The
possession of se much mouey seemed te
have upset the y )ung stenographer and he
launched out very extravagantly upon a
life of dissipmen. lie cime in contact
with a number of distinguished people
(hiring the (luitcau trial and courted their
heciety. L.vmg at the best hotel ami
spending money lavishly, the impression
was made that he had uuliniitc 1 means and
it was net long befere he obtained entrance
into upper circles. He mniitalned his extra
agaut e jurse oriife up te six weeks age,
when he quietly left Washington, leaving
numerous creditors. A discovery has been
made which in a great me.nure accounts for
Railey's having no much money. Coleuel
Kuecli Tettcu, a leading member of the
district bar and oue of the ceunsj! for tlie
Star Rjute defendants, gave R.nley desk
room 111 his el!lc. iu return for which the
latter acted as Ins secretary. It new ap.
pears that Railey took advantage of the

upon three differeut banks and it is
thought that at leas: 3111,000 have been
procured in this way. A number of bills

There was i tiomeudeus eiewd pieaent
te witness the game of baseball Sunday
Imtwreu the St. l.eius club mid the Ath
letics, of I'hilalelphia, who are contesting
each ethor for the pennant.
Fashlouable circles were well represent
ed, hundreds of carriages, diags and pari:
wagons Intermingling with the commoner
vehicles, and making the thoreugfares
leading te the park leek busy indeed. An
Euglishmau who watched the crowd com
lug, said : " It reminds me or Derby day ;
upon my soul It does." Hepo beat high
among the local baseball advocates. The
St. Leuis viotery or Saturday made their
admirers reel confident that Sunday they
would easily dispose or the visitors and
secure a geed chance, at le.nt with future
geed fortune, of warning tlie envied pen
uatit.
'Fer three bouts a uteady stream of men,
women ami children iMiired through the
ontrauce gates of the paik. The ticket
sellers were uuable te supply tire envied
pasteboards with suilieient rapidity, and
the management placed tickets in the
hands of ethers, who sold them en the
street outside, and thus reheved the pres
sure. Leng befere o'clock all tlie re
served seats were occupied, aud the space
iu the Held devoted te the twentytlve cent
crowd was covered ten deep outside of the
rope. When the tickets were counted after
the agony was ever it was found that ti,500
people had paid their way iu te see
the game, winch, it is claimed, is
the largest crowd ever assembled for
the purpose en a ball ground. The
net receipts amounted te between
$0,000 and $7,000. The coin was lumped
together lu a strong box, which two of the
stoutest members of the St. Luns nine
failed te budge from 'he ground. The
paper curieucy filled a clothes basket.
The crowd, though immense, was orderly,
owing largely te the hopeless nature el
the task which the St. Leuis biys seen
found thomselvcs saddled with. Had the
game been a clese one, and had the umpire
happened te fall under the displeasure of
the crowd, the scenes of last Friday's
game would have heeu repeated in a much
mere emphatic shape. Amp'e prevision
had been made by the nnnagemetit te
keep order. In addition te the regular
park police force twenty specials ha 1 becti
procured and detachments of mounted
aud ordmarvmetrepditan policemen were
en hand. The fermet were very useful in
the field, riding up and down along the
line of the crowd n the open seats, and
en the grounds surn-uudMi the lleld aud
keeping them back.
The Athletics were tirst ea the ground,
and they were ery heartily groeted, the
vast assemblage shouted up velley after
velley of welcoming cheers as they dis
persed abjut the ticKl and begau their
preliminary ball t.ws ug. Tnis lasted fully
a quaiter of au hour b-'fore the local team
put in au appearance, and the clever aud
confident way iu win -h they hatrllcd the
ball, showed that they were in line trial
aud liable te give .n excellent exhibition
of skill. When the St. Letus club march
ed into the lield, they, tee, were warmly
greeted and each of the n- te w.-i appealed
te by friends in the crew led stands, he,
iu serious or jocular vein, stated very
plainly what was desired uf them, with
here and there an ungentle intimation that
if they failed te ceme up te the requisite
standard they m;gh. as well give up bill
plvying .13 a livelihood in the future.
Raring the gime the most noticeable
characteristic of the audience w.is depres
sien l hey had a vast supply el confi
dence befere the playing began, but the
opening inning seemed te u.st.blish thu
belief that the fated were against the lej il
team, and only h lpe was left arter the
visiti-is opened the ball in meu tattling
style. Hepe, however, was short lived,
and each succeeding inning brought dis
aster te the Sc Leuis boys. The crowd
gave way te very ovident dejection. They
did n it even hate the heart te qu irrt-1 with
the urn pint ever a lIose dec. sien. The
Athletici pre.scnted e' linen a-ul Rr.vlley
as their bittery. Refore the game thu St.
Liuls team were jubilant at the idea uf
facing Bradley, mid they premised t
knock the life out ur him, but Rradley
proved iuvuloerabK and the three hits
made off bun were hard ground hits, which
just get out of the fUlder.-t' tuach.
The game progressed without especial
note up te thu ninth inning, ami then thu
crowd beheved that St Leuis had lest the
game, and thore was a scattering of forces
and of pushing and surging hundreds
wanting te get out of the grounds as
quick, as possible The mounted police
rede around the ei closure uwingiug their
batons ftnil etdering the crowd te keep oil'
the lield. Tlie Athletics refused te play
until the Held was cleai, ami thore was a
little wait in e.iussq'iancj. A. last order
was restored and Lawis was sent te the
bat for St. Leuis, Hu hit het te Strieker
and was fielded out te first, Nicel hit te
Rrady aud was retired. Quest dreve the
ball safe te centre Held, and went te
second en a pansed ball Here came a
strange scene. Latham corked the hall
with all his might at Corey, and the latter
made a magnificent step. Theu, standing
erect aud taking go id aim, he threw dead
oil the line te Stevey. Toe play was such
a doliheratu oue that tin- crowd Imagined
that the game was ended, aud, at the m
merit Corey straightened his arm tothtew,
the masses surged ever the Held, truest,
instead of making the run from bcoeud te
third and then home, tan half way te
third, ami then aa the ball left Ceny's
hands he darted across the Held intending
te go te the beuch and get his jacket. Te
his surprise, howevor, Stovey made a clean
muff, ami (Jueit ran te the plate ami
touched it. fhe Athletics came iu horn
the Held and asked Daniels te declare
Quest out for net touching third, hut
Daniels had been se busy watching thu
play at first and tin crowd, that he had
