THE NATIONAL GAME.
The Actives .and Hlotuaends Have a
Clese and Interacting Contest,
The Active club.ef the Inter-State League,
played thelr second game yesterday after
noon, and their opponents were the Rich
mond (Va.) team. The weather was cold
and dlsagreable, yet notwithstanding that
fact the crowd was almost as large as en
the opening day. Yeung Sterling, who
pitched for a tlme with the Philadelphia
Giants and has been In Masen's Profes
sionals this season, pitched bis first game
for the Actives and did well, as but live
singles were made off his dollvery. The
Heme club had six singles and two
deubles off Duff, but the fielding of
neither of the teams was of the best.
The visitors should net have had
the three runs they made in the fifth
Inning, as they were brought In after two
men were out and the Aetlves had lest nn
opportunity te retire the side. A ball was
knocked Inte right field which T. Good Goed Geed
hart should have taken but failed. The
fielding or this player as well a Kline was
net what it should be. They were tee slew
for the kind or a team that the Actives
should be. Glelm played a geed game at
first base and Fex, a new man, gave satis
faction, Cress had a bad errer, muffing
an easy ball, and G. Goedhart threw wildly.

A Brief Description Of the Vehicle
Which Will Convey Injured Peepla
te the Hospital or Their Hemes.
The new city ambulance has just been
finished by Alllcks Sens, the well-known
carriage building Arm of this city. Fer
many year the Intklueknckr advocated
the purchase or an ambulance or some
ether suitable wagon te be used la hauling
Injured people, who for a long time have
been pulled through the streets te the
hospitals and thelr homes In the roughest
kind of vehicles. There Is no doubt that
the deaths of many of the peer unfortunates
were caused, or at least hastened,- by the
terrlble rides they wero given.
This paper urged upon councils the nec
essity or procuring an ambulance, but that
body refused te take any action. The rail-
read companies, which have considerable
use for a wagon or this kindi did net make
any liberal offer that would indicate en
largement or the heart, and for a time
nothing was dene. There were many
complaints te the Intelligencer or the
horrlble treatment that wounded people
received, and this paper resolved te se
cure an ambulance. A fend was started
at this ofllce and subscriptions were re
ceived for any amount, from ene cent te
5. The people were fairly liberal In thelr
response, although a sufficient sum has
net yet been received te pay for the
ambulance People who dcslre te contri
bute can de se yet, and the Intelmoen Intelmeen
cun will pay the balance
Having undertaken te ralse the fend by
popular subscription no personal appeals
were made te corporations, business men.
or wealthy people, but it was thought best
te make It a popular charity se that the
poorest might show their sympathy with
Buffering humanity. All contributions te
the fend have been and will be acknowl
edged In the columns of this paper.

TWO RAILROAD WRECKS.
Sixteen Cars On" nt Rosoment A Caboose
And Stock Car Burned.
This seems te be the year for railroad
wrecks,and the Pennsylvania railroad have
been particularly unfortunate. Thelr losses
from this seurce have been tremendously
heavy, especially in the last six months.
About quarter past 8 o'clock last night six
teen leaded cars of a freight train drawn by
engine Ne. 1,317 were thrown from the
track at Rosemout, twolve miles west of
Philadelphia. At this point there are four
tracks and overy one offhein was blocked.
The cars were piled upbu each ether and
very badly broken. One track was cleared
by 12:50 this tnernjng and trains wero then
able te get around after they hud been
blocked up badly for se vorel hours. This
forenoon the tracks had net yet been
entlrely cleared, although trains wero able
te run past the place. The accident was
caused by the spreading of the tracks.
Benjamin Richards, a fireman ou the train,
bad bis leg broken in the accident, but no
one else was hurt.
Among the passengers en Western Ex
press, which Is due here at 11:10, but was
held at Bryn Mawr en account of the
wreck, was Herbert Johnsten, or this city.
He went te a tolegrnpli tower te send a
mossage te Lancaster, and en his return
made a narrow oscape from being run
evor by a wrecking engine, which bore
down upon him without u heed-light, Iu
getting out of the way he stumbled down
an embankment, falling six feet aud laud
ing upon a pile of rocks. He was stunned
by the fall and did net regain consciousness
for a tlme. When recovered he found
himself in a sort of pit, and it was half an
hour uofero he could get out and make his
wayte his train. He was very badly bruised
by the fall, and very angry at a brakemnn
who rofused te aid him in getting out or
the place.
At an early hour this morning anether
wieck occurred. The pluce that it hap hap
peued was en the Mt. Jey branch or the
Peunsylvania.at a trough where the engines
take water whlle running. The place Is
about a mile west of Dlllorville, and hoiiie
trains also step thore te take water from
the tank. It has been the custom of the
company te run seme of their fast freight
trains, leaded with cattle and ether perish
able goods, around by Mt. Jey. Shortly
after 2 o'clock this morning a train drawn
by onglne Ne. 1,370 stepped at the tank te
take water. It had been thore but a
short tlme when the rear of the train
was run Inte by engine Ne. 1,272, which
was drawing another stock train. A freight
car leaded with cattle, and thocabeoso were
thrown from the track. When the caboeso
was tumbled evor the stove was upset aud
the llve ce.tls were scattered about. Iu a
few minutes the cuboeso was in fiames and
as it could net be get away from the stock
car both were totally burned. Fortu
nately nene of the cattle were hurt In tbe
collision, as the deer of the car was epened
and they wero all gotten out in safety be be bo
fero the Haines reached them. None wero
burned or lujHired In the least, and they
wero all driveu te Lancaster, where they
wero placed in another cur and resbipped
te their destination somewhero Initie East.
The rear engine, which did the running In,
was badly damaged, as the front was
knocked in aud a great part of the weed
work burned. The engine was taken te
Hurrisburg this forenoon for repairs.
TJiore was considerable delay te early
morning trains en account of the wreck.
Tramp Raided.
Last evening Constables Yolsley and
Sam Shaub w ero summuued out te the new
city water works, whero u gang or
tramps wero gathered drinking whisky
and otherwise ucliiig very badly, The
officers went out and found the crowd most
tee large for them te take. They telo tele
gra plied te town for assistance, aud officers
Derwart, McUiunls and ilabel wero sent
out. Just as the olllcers nearud the place
a freight train came along, and the tramps,
whuseemed te Inn e an Idea of what was
going ou, made for it. All but ene suc
ceeded In getting ou the train and went
east. The onejhat "ivus left behlnd was tee
drunk te get en the cars; he fell into the
elliccrs1 hands. He gave his name at Gee.
Farrel, and said that lie resides at Wil

built vehicle of the following dimensiens:
It inches wide in front aud 43 behind, It
la 8 feet 6 Inches from the seat In front te
the dasher and 7 feet from the seat te the
rear. The body Is 5 feet In height. The
body and suspensions era arranged se as te
hang low and therefore be easy of access.
The body has a wheel house se that the
wheels turn under It. The back axis la
cranked downward, which allows the body
te hang low. The curtains en the side are
of rubber goods and there is another cur
tain of the same material between the
driver's seat and the place where the In
jured person will lie. On the curtains en
each side are the words : " Lancaster City
Ambulance." On the front of the top la a
small wooden strip with the word " Am
bulance" iu letters of geld. The lower
side panels of the smbulsuee are 181 Inches
wlde, and these, as well as the entire wood
work of the body, are painted a deep black.
The running gears are of carmine with
black stripes. In Uie rear of the wagon
are a pair of doers, which are very
well arranged. The wagon is provided
with a brake or the latest kind,
and en the driver's side, fastened
te the seat. Is a gong, which will be
sounded as the ambulance passes through
the streets. Twe fine large nlckel-plated
lamps will be placed upon the front of the
wagon. A large mattress, te fit the bottom
of the wagon, is being made, and In bad
cases a pillow will be placed under the
mattress, both forward hnd back. , By the
side of the mattress Is a seat, upon which
ene person can sit te leek after the wants
or the Injured,
It is the Intention or the Intelligencer
te turn the wagon evor te city councils and
allow that body te de what they please
with it? The councllmen will probably
be Invited te Altlck's shop te bee the am
bulance before It Is accepted by thorn.
It Is prebable that the ambulance will be
kept at ene et the engine houses of the city
flre department se that, when it is needed
the horses of the department can be used In
it. There Is ue doubt that it should be lo
cated somewhero near tbe centre of the
city and may be placed at the old Emplre
house after the city takes jmssesslen.

EIGHT.PAaES.--PRIOE
THE LADOlt SITUATION.
A Review by ." Brdstruet'K"-PreparA-tlens
for the First or May-Tha Move
ment Already Taklna; Shape,
Draifefrjrt'a en Friday Issued a special
en the eight-hour day, giving some statis
tics en the labor situation, together with a
letter rtem Samttel Getnpers, president of
the American Federation of Laber, giving
his views upon the subject nnd stating
authoritatively what the Federation wants
and what it proposes te de. Mr. Genipers
says:
'Sufficient notlce having been glven te
all contractors and ethor partles Interested
that en and after the 1st of May, 1890. the
wage-workers affiliated with the Amerlcan
Federation or Laber would adept the olght elght olght
heur day as a limit or the day's work, It Is
new the dlltV of the exmnitlvn nlUnAr in
secure the deslred result with the least out
lay or tlme and money. The history or the
Industrial development or this country
shows that the eight hour day cannot be
much longer doferrod.
"The campaign Is en, the hosts have been
marshaled, drilled, ammunition has been,
and Is being, provided and the public sym
pathy and sontlment has been aroused nnd
the grand army of labor is ready for the
battle. The Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners, who have been selected te lead,
are full or the enthuslaam or past victories.
Recruits are Joining thelr ranks by hun
dreds Hnd thousands, and places that were
unorganlKed are rapidly cemlnK under the
shield or that organization, If the em
ployers In any large cllle of the country
refuse te adept the olght-heur day the car
penters will strlke and will reeel ve the sup
port or the Poderation te the fullest extent
of Its funds, nnd ethor trodes will open thelr
treasuries te sustain them. The union
men or ethor trades will net work en jobs
en which 'scabs' are ompleyod. The Amor Amer
lcan Federation of Laber will net scatter
Its forces, but will onter upon the lines
laid down, traile by trade, city by city,
town by town : It will tnove along ever the
whele industrial field. The non-union
men net lu sympathy will be held back,
net by physical force, but by the over
whelming lniluouce of 'union sontlment,"
Iiradstreet'ii, In It comments en the lot let lot
let, says that as the first of May approaches
the Industrial situation bocemoa mero and
mere troubled throughout thlsceuntryand
Europe, nnd that thore Isdlsoernlblo a gen
eral tendency te secure a readjustment of
lieura of labor and compensation.
"In this country," it oentlnues, "the
building trades undoubtedly inonepollzo
attention, owing te the movement for an
olght-heur day te be put lu force May 1.
Alroadytbe movemont has taken actual
shape nt Chicago, Indianapolis aud ethor
smaller centres. Chicago thus far Is ap
parently the contre or the greatest distur
bance. About six thousand carpenters
originally struck for the olght-heur day and
nearly 20,000 empleyes lu ethor lines have
sluce been thrown out or work owing te
the strlke. A strlke of 2,000 builders' cm-
Sloyes was te occur at Bosten this week,
trlkes of stone and granite cutters, house heuso heuse
smiths and brlckmakers for shorter hours
orhlgber wages have rolnfercod theso or
builders' empleyes at manypetnts. Strikes
or glass bettle makers at Pittsburg, ceke
makers In the Connellsvlllo region and
the clothing cutters at New Yerk have
swelled the total number of striking
empleyes. The situation In the soft coal
roglens Is mero premising. Pennsylvania
operators have agroed te the new scale
asked by their empleyes. Advices from
Pittsburg point te a strike of trainmen en
all the railroads entering that elty, In case
demands for advanced wages are net
granted.
Referring te the Increased number of
strikes, which are In part reforable te the
eight-hour agitation, and the projected
campaign near at hand. It Is stated that dur
ing the past 17 days thore have been re
ported 70 strlkes, Involving 21,452 strtkers,
as against 01 strlkes, Involving 12.10J
strikers, for the whele month of April, 18S0.
Charles II. Litehman, special agent of the
treasury department, told of tbe difficulty
he found in prosecuting violations of the
alien contract labor law because tbe law
was se loosely drawn.
The committee wero strong In thelr
opinion that If men come here lu rospenso
te theso foreign advortlsemonts, they will
ceme iu violation or the alien contract labor
law, and ought te be kept out. Charles A,
Colcord, emigrant commissioner, said he
should surely step a man coming te this
pert in answer te such advortlsemonts as
had been printed In tbe foreign papers.
The committee rolurned te New Yerk.
What Mr. Cleveland Really Said.
Frem the New Tork Evening 1'enl, April 18.
If the World wants any mere explana
tion of the unioadlnesH of Intelligent peo peo poe
plo te pay much attention te starling state
ments In its columns, It can find It In the
reKrt it printed yesterday of an Intervlew
of ene of Its reporters with Mr, Clevaland
about stories printed lu the New Yerk
Hun touching bis physical condition. The
reporter called his attoutlen te the AW
article, and this Is what Mr. Cleveland
said, aud all he said, lu answer :
" t have net seen the article you rofer te,
and If It appears uowhere elsa but In the
tiun thore Is net the least chance of my see
ing It. or course, the outire thing Is a lie,
without the least pretext te oxcuse it. 1
judge from what you say that the vonerable
editor of the A'tiii mipiieses that he has at
last hit upon u subject which can be used
te annoy me. Iu this he is mistaken. He
must be his own Judge of social decencies
and nroprletlos. I am net sure that he
should at his tlme or life and In his appar
ently peculiar mental condition be molested
In his amusement."
We quostleii the oxpedloncy of his say
ing anything at ull under the circum
stances. A busy lawyer ought net, in our
opinion, te allow himself te Ge Interrupted
In order te pass Judgment ou the Indecon Indecen Indecon
clesofa scurrilous no wiquper. Journalistic
silllness Is greatly promoted by peeple's
reedluess te talk ubeut it and aimlyze it.
But what we have quoted was ubeut the
right thing for Mr. Cloveland te say If he
said anything at ail. The reperter was net
sullstled with this, hnwover. He went en
te invent and put In Mr. Cleveland's
mouth nearly a column of ethor talk, seme
of It course abuse of Dana, the editor of the
iV'in, which It would have been undignified
and discreditable for Mr. Cleveland te
utter.
