The Soulaslder a Little Wild. Bat He Can Pitch. ISTZCIAL TXLXQBAX TO THE DISPATCH.! New York, Slay 17. Hustling Horace Phillips and his ball team from the city of gas came to "town to-day. The team is in a bad tray. The New Yorks are badlv off for pitchers, but they are far better fixed than the Pittsburgh The friends of the club need not be surprised at the poor show ing which it has made, for it is remarkable that they hare not done worse. The six pitchers which the club started out with are simply useless to them on account of lame arms and other injuries. So badly pushed was Manager Phillips for a pitcher for to-day's game that lie had a Pittsburg amateur signed and sent on so that he could have someone that could at . least be called a pitcher. This young pitcher did not do so bad outside of his wildness. Kis base on balls, however, came with base hits by the New Yorks. The backing which he received was very fine, and at times it was sharp and not uninter esting. Three double plays in the earlier part of the game by the -visitors showed that the New Yorks had to step lively when an at tempt was made to sacrifice in order to move a runner up a base. The visitors hit the ball well, but with the exception of the latter part of the game, they could not get their hits together. THE GEOTJND "WAS EOTJGK. The roughness of the ground gave the New Yorks two more hits than they otherwise would hare got. as both balls bounded over Dunlap's head just as he was in position to get the ball. Richardson nearly lost a finger in the eighth inning in trying to stop a hot grounder. Keefe and Ewing were down nn the cards as the New York's battery, bnt it was fonnd that Swing's effort in pitching on Thursday bad given him a lame back, so that Brown was forced to go in and do the work behind the bat. Keefe tried to pitch, but be could hold for bnt one inning. The first Dall that he pitched showed that his "arm was not In -condition, and with every succeeding effort he showed that his arm pained him. Hatfield re lieved him after the inning was over, and al though he was bit for nine hits there was never any donbt about the New Yorks winning. Lit tle Miller was as lively as a cricket, and he needed to be to stop some of the pitched balls byKrnmm. Some or his stops were very fine, and called forth applause. Umpire LYNCH "WAS SOMEWHAT OFF in his decisions, but as both sides caught it alike it did not make so much difference. A new pitcher is always a terrorto the New York club, and they were a little uneasy to-day until they sawthe "idd" from the Smoky City. Gore appeared at the head of the batting list again; his arm is very bad and It was fortunate that he did not have much to do in the way of throwing. The first ball pitched by the visiting pitcher must have made him think that he had got himself into trouble, for Gore slammed the ball into center field for a base. Tiernan hit a sharp grounder toward Dunlap which was turned into a base hit, a stone causing the ball to bound over the second baseman's head. The hair on Krumm's bead fairly stood on end when Connor's big form loomed up at the plate. The first ball that came near the plate Connor sent over the right field fence about 20 feet Xoul. Then our first baseman amused himself by trving to see bow near he could come to the top of the right field fence and not go over. The f nn ended, however, by his getting to first on oaus. crown also got nrst on tolls ana Gore walked home. Ward made a successful sacrifice and Tieman scored. Ahitrjy O'Rourke to left field scored both Connor and Brown. Then the New Yorks stopped scoring for a time, so as to let the visitors have a chance. TIM KEEFE WAS CHEEKED. "When Keefe stepped into the box there was a round of applause. He sent the first ball in a graceful manner toward Sunday and there was a collision like the rap of a bedslat against a sugar barrel and the ball dropped safe into right field. Hanlon got to first on balls, and after a double steal both men scoied on a hit bvMaul. Goose eggs were then presented On either side until the fourth Inning when the visitors jumped their score up a couple of runs, one or two hits, as many misplays and a sacrifice hit. Beckley opened the inning with a bit, and Maul hit likewise; a wild pitch moved them both up a base, and a fumble bv Whitney and a sacrifice by Miller brought them borne. The visiting pitcher con tinued wild, bnt his wildness did not prove cof tlv on account of the sharp work by Miller and the good steady play by the fielders. In the seventh inning, however, his wildness was more disastrous; two bases on balls, three steals, three hits and an error by Smith rolled up fire runs. A two-bagger down the left foul line bv Smith and a single by Sunday In this same inning gave the visitors a run. Both sides wound up with runs. Abase on balls by Hatfield, a steal assisted by a wild throw of Miller, a wild pitch and a hit by Rich ardson gave the New Yorks their last run. For the visitors, hits by Kuebne and Smith, a steal by the latter and a bit by Sunday netted two runs. There were about LGOO spectators pres ent. Score: NXWTOKE.

Alexander Beam, the youngLatrobe pitcher, has not been signed by the local club yet, but it is expected that be will sign to-day or Mon day. He is willing to sign with the Plttsburgs if he can get his father's consent. Mr. Beam, Sr., is away from home at present, but may return to-day. President Nimick and Secretary Scandrett were at Latrobe yesterday, but made no suc cess other than stated ab-.ve. Tbey feel cer tain, however, that Beam -ill play here. The patrons of the Latrobe club object strongly to his leaving there, as they think with Beam they can win the pennant of the Western Pennsyl vania League, andthev also think that, if he leaves, the club wilf become demoralized. Beam is only 19 years old, and a well-built joungman. During a conversation yesterday President Nimick said that every possible effort will be made to secure good new pitchers. He has been told of Kennedy, of Wbeeline, and an effort may be made to secure him. Ken nedy was recommended in this paper a few days ago. There may be a desire to try a few. local pitchers, now that Krumm did so well yesterday. He was beaten, of coarse, but con sidering it was his maiden effort in tne League and against the champions, he did very well. He was working in a Southside mill on Thurs day. Another story regarding White andRowe has been given to the world. It is stated that they intend to come here and each demand one month's salary, and if it is refused they will re turn to Buffalo and play there. Probably these two players are capable of doing some very foolish things, but it is hardly likely tbey are so stupid as to do what the above report in timates. IT TOOK. TEN INNINGS. The Phillies Defeat the Hoosiers In a Great Game. Philadelphia, May 17. It took ten innings to decide to-day's Philadelphia-Indianapolis game. Both teams played sharply in the field, Fogarty particularly doing brilliant work, hav ing seven put-outs and three assists to his credit. The visitors' stupid base running prac tically lost them the game. Score: FUILAD'A. B B P A EIINDIAN'P'S B B P A S Wood, 1 0 lelaha'y,2.. 2 tfojtarty, m.

Mr. Davidson, of the Louisville Baseball Club, said this afternoon that no sale bad yet been made and he thinks negotiations are off for the present at least. Said he: T found several parties who were raider dis posed to take hold, bnt they wanted the club for nothing and I have reached the conclusion that I might as well lose money one way as another so I will hold on for a while at least. I will make a change or two that I think will put the club in pretty good shape. Some people are of the opinion we need a new battery, but I don't think so. Under the existing rules the mam feature ot pitching is control of the ball and for this plenty of practice Is required. Ew Ing's work of yesterday shows that pitchers can have too much rest. Ewing had not been in the box since Saturday, yet he pitched yester day about his worst game of the season. He was particularly off in his command of the ball. With two good alternating batteries and a re serve one, such as is the equipment of tbeLouis viUe club, I think the battery question "is solved. "I have about made np my mind to let Kerins go and Ramsey may also be disposed of, buthls case is not so near a decision as Kerins. Ram sey's arm, I think, is just as good as it ever was. His main fault is his inability to control the ball. If he can overcome this wildness ho will NewYorts ' S S S f S be as good as ever, otherwise-he is worthless as a pitcher and a ball player." , Cntcber at Home. Braddock, May 17. Tommy Quinn, the popular young catcher of the Baltimore team, arrived home to-day. He will remain here un til his hand gets better. He has now the lead ing record in the Association, having caught in seven games this season and never Host one of them. A GOOD GAME PROMISED. The East End Athletics and Braddocks Meet To-Dny. There promises to bo an interesting game of ball at East Liberty Park this afternoon, and the lovers of the national pastime who cannot satisfy their appetite for that great game, while the Plttsburgs are away from home, should take advantage of the opportunity and go out and see bow the amateurs do the thing up. It is a well-known fact in baseball circles that the stronger clubs in the Allegheny County League put up nearly as good a game as the average professional club, and the players go at the game with so much dash and vim that thev Tally cover any little shortcom ings in regard to th eir ability to cope with their professional brethren. There alwavs ha been the greatest rivalry between the East End and Braddock In regard to their ball clubs, ana this year the manage ment of both clubs have made considerable ef fort to strengthen their respective teams. The Athletics have not lost a game this season, while the Braddocks have only lost one, and that was to McKeesport when they were in a crippled condition and did not hare a regular battery. Since then, howevor, Manager Bair has secured an excellent battery in Gordon and Killen, and he promises to make it interesting for Manager Edwards' pets this afternoon. The Atblctjcs, however, are on the alert, and are aware of the streneth of their rivals for championship honors, and will no doubt put forth their best efforts before, they will permit their unbroken record ot this season to be marred by one defeat.

It maybe interesting, in view of the present crusade against the docking of horses' talis, to know what th e process Is. Its features are thus described in an exchange: "A rope is thrown over the neck of the horse, the end brought be tween his fore legs and under his hind pasterns. A sudden jerk draws up his legs, he falls help less to the floor, and his legs are tied. He is then secured with twitches, which is twisting a small rope around the nose, which is very sen sitive, so as to divert his attention from the tall. Behind is a furnace, knives, a large pair of shears and a searing iron. The operator folds back the hair from the joint to be divided: the knife rapidly severs the skin, the huge shears are applied, the horse struggles and the tall Is off. Then the iron at a white heat is ap plied, and the bleeding is arrested. The cheers of the audience and the subduing Influence of the twitch drown the cry of pain, that is never brought from the horse except when in great agony; for this noble animal is one of the few who endure ordinary pain without a whimper.''

The Fifteenth ward schoolhouse was well filled with enterprising citizens of that dis trict last night. The object was to consider te gratuitous offer 'irotn Major McKce of a spring of water in the Fifteenth ward, on the United States Arsenal property. The only thing necessary is the Building of a fountain and the laying of pipe to carry the refreshing liquid to Thirty-ninth and But ler streets, in front of the arsenal. At the meeting Dr. T. E. Evans presided and James W. Patton was Secretary. The project, from the interest shown last night, is bound to go through, and the Fifteenth warders are suspiciously afraid that the Seventeenth warders are aiming to secure the right of the water; therefore the move ment is quite spirited on the part of the former. Two committees were appointed, one of five to consult with Major McKee and the contractors in regard to the matter, and the other to look after the $1,000 subscription proposed to be raised among the citizens to defray expenses. On the first committee are Barney Weldon, Irvin ITeckerman Jr., J. F. Shaffer, John L. Mills and Thomas May bury. The Subscription Committee has 15 members, with the privilege of increasing the number. It follows: A. H. Leslie. Esq., Samuel F. Patterson, James Ford, George Garrison. James Vogle, Jr., J. W. Hubbard. WUliam Barton, E. liar tin, John Hare. W. F. Shak, H. Frecker, James W. Patton, L Neckerman, Sr., V7. H. Porter and Thomas Maybury. There were motions and motions made; but no final action was taken further than the committees being appointed, and an other general rdeetine was set. to be held next Tuesday evening in the same school building at 8 o'clock, with the hope of a full attendance.
