An important meeting of the Allegheny County Baseball League was held last night, and as a result the unpleasantries that have been causing trouble recently were smoothed. over. All the clubs were represented, and the meeting was extremely animated from start to finish. The most important business nas the rumored resignation of Secretary W. J. Barr. Fortu nately for the League, that gentleman was pre vailed upon by friends at the meeting to not present his resignation. He, however, claimed that he had just grounds for complaint. For some time past several players have been alleging that he has been tampering with the averages to favor his own record. The absurdity of this was shown when it was stated that he does not take any scores at all. Each clnb has an official scorer. However, the meeting unanimously passed a resolntion heartily approving of the untiring and able efforts of Mr. Barr as Secretary of the league. A riEASAKT EESULT. Thus the matter was ended, and it is to he hoped that the last of these ungenerous and ridiculous stories have been circulated. No friend of the league will start them. Another Important question was protests against Paul O'Brien, of the East End Ath letics, and Klllon, of the Braddock clnb. It was claimed that O'Brien had reported and played with the Hamilton club this season, and that Eiilon had reported and played with Day ton, O. Section 2 of article II. provides that any player who is or has been under contract with any major or minor league clnb after March 8, of this year. Is not eligible to play In the County League. After considerable dis cussion It was shown that SXTXHEB PLAYEB HAS SIGNED with the clubs named and the protests were not sustained. A committee was then appointed to make the rule regarding the eligibility of players more definite. Another difficulty was encountered on the umpire question. There was a strong kick against TV. C. Wilson by McKeesport, who claimed he had no idea of balls and strikes. The Riverside Grevs and the Homesteads also protested against his lmpenousness. The bal ance of the clubs, however, had not seen him tested and he was retained by a vote of 6 to 4. Three umpires resigned, viz: W. Q. Taylor, L. C Hacker and W. 8. Barr. They were re placed by Samuel Rose, or Braddock; Thomas Zacbarias, Homestead, and 8. Grcnet, of Alle gheny. A committee was appointed to fill all future vacancies caused by the retirement of umpires. The committee is: M. P. Schooly, C. G. Eeenan and F. W. Torreyson. The various reports showed that the league is getting along very well. IT RAINED AS USUAL. Almost All Games Stopped A Worthy Baseball Example. Rain again almost completely demoralized baseball yesterday. Out of eight games ar ranged by the League and Association clubs only three were played. Of course, among the victims of the rain were the Pittsburgs. If a bucketful of rain falls in a day these unfor tunates are almost sure to be under it. The other games stopped were: Chicago-Indlanapo-lis, and Association games at Columbus, Balti more ana Brooklyn. It may be remarked that the Athletics and LouisTUles set a worthy example yesterday. Probably no club It poorer than the Louis- -i of the Johnstown sufferers. They will, lose nothing by it, for there is always a public de sire to patronize any body of men who are gen erous enough to befriend the unfortunate when seed requires it SOME BAGGED ERRORS.

The Athletic and Louisville clubs played a championship game to-day for the benefit of the Johnstown suffer ers, the former winning after 11 hard-fought innings. The game was characterized by hard hitting and brilliant fielding, which elicited applause from the spectators. The hitting of Browning was tremendous, his home run drive in the fifth inning being made when two men were on bases. Score: Athletics. 1 02200020029 Lnnlsvllles. 0 11131000007 Base hits Athletics.

The disastrous flood at Johnstown has left Henry Hawes, of that place, minus three well known race horses. His young trotter Com motion, for which, be recently paid 11,400 at Cleveland: Henry H, the pacer, and Mohawk, Jr., the young trotting stallion, were all carried away in tbe flood. Altogether Mr. Hawes is reported aslosing 18 horses, but the three above named are the only ones of prominence. Charley Zimmerman, another well-known sportingman of Johnstown, is almost left pen niless. He told George Campbell, the Smith field street tailor, that the only thing he had left in the world was his young trotter' at Homewood. He wanted Mr. Campbell to go out there and take the horse out of training; have him fatten up and sell him. so as to realize a few dollars. "I haven't a cent to pay for his training now." said Mr. Zimmerman. "Keep the horse on the track, and Pit looc after his training, Charley," said Mr. Campbell.

Beaver and Mayor Grant Agree. BUT NOT SO OUR MAYOR. Mr. McCnllln Thinks Food Immediately Is Far More Needful Tuna Tools Sometime In tbe Fatare Beaver on Criminal Con servatismHe Holds Back Funds for a Reason. New York, June 7. Contributions for the relief of the flood sufferers continued to pour in during the day. Among the contributions received by the Chamber of Commerce was 1,000 from the London and Brazilian Bank of London. The Chamber of Commerce collec tions amount to $32 68. At the. Mayor's office to-day a number of men ont of employment offered their services to go to Johnstown. They were told they were not needed. Some difference of opinion appear in the following dispatches received by the Mayor from Governor Beaver and from Mayor Mc callln, of Pittsburg. The Governor says: Mindful of your snggestlon of first communica tion In regard to holding my funds for later ex clgcncles, I have been exceedingly cautious, and, In tbe estimation of many whose feelings are much Involved, criminally conservative. My thought Exceedingly Cautions. had been to have funds contributed by our people first exhausted, then to have all funds coming lrom outside the State expended under authority of a general committee, which 1 propose to have organized at a conference between the Mayor of Philadelphia, representatives of the Johnstown committee and myself in Philadelphia to-morrow, the 6th. 1 am, perhaps, too sensitive about spending other people's money: but, so long as our own lasts, I did not wish to spend a dollar of tbe trust funds given me for such a sacred purpose, with out tbe authority of the tribunal whose dignity and Integrity should be recognized bv tbe world. In this I think I am In harmony with your com mittee and people elsewhere. If It Is possible, send me an estimate of the funds you control berore I go to Philadelphia to-morrow. James A. Beateh. 'A dispatch from Mayor McCallin, of Pitts burg, to Mayor Grant reads: WeexpecttobeattheendofourrnndsbvBatur day night. I will keep you posted of our wants. William McOallw. Governor Beaver during tho day telegraphed that disinfectants were badly heeded. A telegram was sent Uovernor Beaver by Mayor Grant commending the position taken by tbe former as given above. "It shonld be the aim and work of us all," the dispatch con tinues, "to concentrate tbe use of the money to a substantial committee, such as yon propose. Shall It be Food or Tools? "We will help you to do this. Tbe time will come when money can be wisely used in ad vancing small sums to mechanics and workmen wbo have lost their tools. This was done in Chicago after their great fire with great suc cess. Please aavise the Mayor of Pittsburg, as I have done, that our committee ate working through you." A second dispatch was received from Pitts burg. It was addressed to Treasurer Simmons, and signed Thomas Hackett and J. C. Morris, Committee of the Relief Board. After statintr that tbe committee had wired the exchanges here asking for funds, the dispatch goes on: Pittsburg Is the onlr point of access to the scene or disaster from which contributions and supplies can be forwarded, therefore they order and depend almost entirely npon us for all sup plies. We have been at enormous expenses are now about out of funds. We must have some at once. ew York has contributed most generous ly, but as yet not a cent has reached here. Mr. Simmons replied by referring tbe com mittee to the Governor.

They Are Being; Drawn Between a Governor Who Sees and Meets a Necessity and Oae Who Hesitates HovrForaker and His Lady Sympathize. rrBOM A BTATF COBEXBPONEINT.l JomtSTOWif, June 7. Comparisons between Governor Beaver, of Pennsylvania, and Govr. nor Foraker, of Ohio, are being made on every hand. It is hardly necessary to state that the aforesaid com parisons areas odious to the former as.they are complimentary to the latter. The fiery, but big-hearted, Chief Executive of the Back eye State grasped the Importance of the situa tion in the distance, while the "soldier states man" from Bellefont has, apparently, just dis covered that the flood of the Conemaugh was something more than a cross roads washout. At noon to-day General Daniel F. Mmaban. of Springfield, 0., arrived here with the fol lowing self-explanatory letter to General D. H. Hastings: Executive depaetment, COLUMBUS, O. i General D. H. Hastings: This will be handed to yon by General D. F. Mlnahan. or Springfield. O. He Is a contractor and a reliable and worthy m in, who can take to Johnstown trained and organized laborers, irtbev are needed. Confer with him and let blm help, IT his servlcesjire of use to you. Hastily, but truly, J. B. Fobaexr. General Mlnahan says that when he left the Executive Department Detective J. T. Norris, who had just returned from this fated district, was relating the harrowing scenes that had come under his own personal knowledge to the Governor and Mrs. Foraker. "The tales were too much for Mrs. Foraker." said General Mlnahan, "and she had to leave the room. As for tbe Governor, he told me to state to General Hastings that Ohio stood ready to do any and everything in her power to allevi ate the suffering and rebuild the destroyed city. When General Minahan presented Ata letter from Governor Foraker to General Hastings this evening tbe latter referred him to Mr. Flinn, who in turn informed the General that, although be would greatly like to have the as sistance of his men, he had no authority to send lor them. 'He said, however, that fully 5,000 or them could he used to the best of advantage. With this intelligence General Minahan tele graphed the entire situation to tbe Governor of Ohio. Later in the night a reply to the effect that the Governor would send the men on his own responsibility, and that Ohio would stand good for the payment of their wages, was received. This sent Foraker stock up with a boom, and the man for the emergency became tbe lion of the town. General Minahan was very sore at the treatment be had received, and he in timated in no weak terms that the entire dis trict up here is sadly In need of a head. " COXMEIAT. COMPLAINTS IN CAMBpiA. Peoplo Think Morrellvllle Gets More Than Her Share Unsoldlerlike Murmurs. IFBOM a STAFF COBRESPOXDEHT.3 JoHifSTOWif, June 7. The Council, in behalf of the destitute people of Cambria City, wbo were fortunate enongh to be saved, have en tered a protest against the contemplated re moval of the relief station from that place to Morrellvllle, They hold that their citizens are placed to a vast inconvenience by having to walk a mile for provisions, and even then the best of the goods Is given to tbe Morrellvllle people. A building is now being erected by them for a storehouse, and they claim if the station is removed it will Jcavo them in desti tute circumstances. Reports of dissatisfaction have been drifting about the different military quarters to tbe effect that rations were short and the pangs ot hunger had struck some of the soldiers. Especially in Company E was this kick most apparent. General Hastings heard of the matter, and personally made a tour of tbe encampment, and afterward said to jour correspondent: "I beard that some of our men were com- Slaining, but I find it is entirely without cause, bey are abundantly supplied; much more so, Indeed, than tbe day laborers, who ate sub jected to great physical labor. .These trifling reports ate started "oy tbe younger members of xne companies, woo are not accustomed to tno necessary privations of tbe military duty.""

The flood could give Judge White several points and 'then beat him on tbe game of how to knock out tbe saloons. The Judge succeeded in killing a great many of the Pittsburg saloons, but the flood knocked out more In proportion than His Honor ever .dreamed of. There is only one saloon now in Johnstown and Conemaugh boroughs oat of very nearly 100 before the flood. In Portage and Conemaugh boroufhs there were Ave sa loons on Railroad street. The bar sign was numerous, and on Washington street, Johns town, every other house was a saloon. There were three wholesale liquor stores In the town, and theywere all wiped out. The localities spoken of belonged to the drinking portion or Johnstown. It was right in tbe path of tbe flood, and the buildings were floated off, together with their contents. The only one left is the Fourth Ward House, on Bedford avenue, which has been closed by the Sheriff on account of the disaster. There are no saloons left in Conemaugh now, where there were about 25 before. In a great many cases the keepers of the places were taken out with their houses and drowned. The thirsty citizens of the boroughs are now doing -without their beer, as it is impossible to get it anywhere. The "speak-easles" are mors numerous here than they are In Pittsburg. Many persons coming from Pittsburg appoint themselves private whisky commissioners, and'one cannot turn after the arrival of a train without having a number of bottles thrust under his nose. Strange to say there is no drunkenness. It may be said, however, that the most of the whisky is of a very poor quality. "Good stuff" is hard to get, and thoso who have it do not an nounce the fact with a brass born. The citizens of the town are now getting into shape for tke resumption of work on their houses. About one out of every four has turned his place into an eating saloon. where he poses as chef and makes a bluff at selling meals. lhey have laid in a supply or provisions, ana are ready to take one's order on short notice. The menu is variegated and peculiar, bat the viands fill a long felt want. FaPcy prices are being charged by the hotel keepers, and in the language of tbe American youth, "everything goes" except the butter. This was indeed true of one great hotel in the Fourth ward to-day, where the eating is of different hues. The batter went in this case. It was so strong that it could not help going. The bread was also damp and heavy. One modest diner asked for dessert and the landlord paralyzed his guest by inquiring what was meant. . To-day your correspondent put up$l for a breakfast composed of salt bacon, coffee, bread and apple butter. McSwioan. BAILROAD, BUSINESS BETIYING. j Tbe Freight Shipping Public to be Relieved by To-Nlght. rrnou a etait cobkesfohdsxt.i Johnstowjt, J une 7. The Eastern iron Arms which have been worrying over their supply of, coke and coal by way of the Pennsylvania, and tbe freight shipping public in general, will be relieved to learn that by to-morrow night through freight trains will be able to run from Pittsburg tc5 tbe 'East. Superintendent A. P. Klrtland, of the West Penn Railroad, was on this morning's train on his road which met the Pennsylvania train at Bolivar. In re gard to tbe condition of the Pennsylvania lines be said: "The bridge swept away at Tunneltonhas been replaced by a substantial trestle-work affair, giving us a true road to and from Alle gheny City. The remaining trestle works on tbe Philadelphia and Erie, replacing the destroyed bridges, will positively be finished by Saturday at 6 o'cl ck. Connellsville coke or other freight will then be started eastward on the main line to Bolivar, thence over the West Penn to Allegheny Junction, from there to Red Bank and Dnftwood over tbe Allegheny Val ley, and thence eastward over the Philadelphia and Erie. This will be the nearest freight line the Pennsylvania has been able to secure since the flood." Mr. Pettit, General Superintendent of the Pennsylvania between Philadelphia and Pitts burg, has reached Philadelphia afteca tour of tbe entire flooded district, commencing atAl toona and swinging around the circle, with the first definite ana authentic information as to losses which the road has sustained. He styles it tbe greatest series of disasters ever-falling to the lot of any single railroad to bear, and was himself astounded at the devastation wrought by tbe floods both east and west of the mount ains. Mr. Pettit said to me that any other rail road in the country would be seriously embar rassed by such an enormous loss. Ono thing that Mr. Pettit emphasized struck me forcibly. "It takes such an accident as this," said he, "to bring out the wisdom of having alternate lines in all directions. There have been tbose'wbo couldn't see the force of this policy, but it has been demonstrated as wise.

A SKETCH OF VIRGIL, Major Brace Tells tho History of the Famous Thoroughbred. Major B. G. Bruce, of Lexington, Ky the well-known turfman and writer on tbe thor oughbred, gives the following' sketch of the famous thoroughbred horse Virgil: "1 owned Virgil, probably the greatest sire after Lexington in America's history. He was given to me and I tried to sell him for 300, but was laughed at. As a runner he was not a brilliant success, and he was sold to Bob Sim mons, who turned him into asteeplechaser. He did not prove very good at that, and he was driven around In a buggy, and finally became the property of M. H. Sanf ord. He was a gen eral utility animal on the' tatter's .farm. Hay wood, Mr. Sanford's stallion, having been taken sick, Virgil covered a few of the marcs until the former became well. Then Mr. Sanford gave tbe black horse to me. and I -m. sure you I thought I had a white elephant, sim- viy uecause x uau no use lor sucn an animal 1 tried to sell him to Colonel W. H. Jackson for $300, and ne declined with, thanks. 1 then gave half of him to Williams & Owens for the care of him. He made a season in Franklin countv, but covered no mares. The next year one of his colts. Vagrant, came out as a 2-year-old. This attracted attention to him. and General Jackson offered $500 for him. I, however, told him that I would give Mr. Sanford the first chance at him, and so I did. Vagrant, as a 3- year-oio, won iub ijouisvuie AerDy, tne second one run for, ana I sold bis sire to Mr. Sanford for S2.0U0. General Jackson continued to want him bad, and Mr. Sanford priced him at $10,000. His colts continued to prove wonders, and Pierre Lorillard asked General Jackson to see Mr. Sanford and buy him. Tbe latter replied that he had put a figure of $10,000 on him, but he wanted $60,000. Mr. Swigert, his original owner, got blm when be purchased tho Sanford property. Among his great sons are Vigil, Hindoo and a couple of score of others." Wants the Cash Pat Up. In reply to tbe challenge ot John Robinson, of Butler, which appeared In yesterday's Dis patch, J. J. Engledrum says that If Robinson Is not a "ringer" he will run him a 12-hour race for 8100 a side. Engiedrum, however, de sired Robinson to pnt up a forfeit to show that he means business. It a forfeit Is put up En giedrum states he will cover it. Ono Hound Settled Him. TBOY',N.Y.,Jnne7.

At Captain Logan's headquarters at Horrellnllev is a busy scene. Messengers and clerks are coming and going at all hours; trains are unloaded, and wagons con vey the goods to warehouses, where packages are opened and goods sorted and classified. From these warehouses goods are sent in wagons to Kernville, which is not accessible by rail, and to Cambria City and other local points. Morrellrille Is the principal distrib uting station. Supplies are sent from here in all directions.' General Hastings applies to Cantain Logan for what is needed on his side of the bridge. The committee then ascertain the contents of a car, and whatever is needed is shipped up tbe road and over the bridge by rail. If a car cannot be secured containingthe proper supplies one is loaded from the ware houses and sent over. Owing to the fact that boxes are packed In- L discrimlnately and as a rule no schedules are sent along, it is necessary to unpack and sort everything. Clerks keep an acconnt of all goods received and all goods forwarded to other points, and as supplies are only given out on orders an accurate record is kept of all the work done. Young's livery stable, a large building, has been turned into a grocery warehouse. The .zed planing mill ana the white planing mill, both immense structures, were offered by their owners and accepted as warehouses for clothing, bedding and other supplies. Last night about 10 o'clock the Methodist church was secured and ten carpenters put to work. 'Boards were nailed over tbe pews, the church divided into sections and supplies of clothing placed in each. One section contains boys' clothing, another contains men's clothing, another women's, another misses', another boots and shoes, and so on. A bookkeeper sits in tho pulpit and ladles of Morrellvllle and vicinity act as clerks. The road to Cambria has been cleared. E. A. Carrol took ont a force of men and teams. Local men were put to work on tbe road. In some places it was covered by mud and mortar. It is a good road now, and goods can be put into Cambria City in quick time. The Supply of Provisions ran low there last night, and this morning a delegation of the leading people came over with a schedule of things needed. Tbeywere sent at once. Six teams loaded with all they could carry over the mountain road were sent to Kernville this morning, where there is great need of them. Last night the Pennsylvania Railroad put in a side track at the Morrellvllle headquarters, and relief cars are run fn there. The cars can now be unloaded into wagons. Before it was necessary to unload them on the ground to clear the main tracks, and transport them as it was possible to do it. Co'umbus and Cleveland have been most systematic in their contributions. Three heavily-laden freight cars came in from Cleveland yesterday. Ten men were required to handle some of the boxes. The cars were laden for tbe most part with clothing, and one gentleman said they were so closely packed it was almost Impossible to find room for a fly in one of them. The contents of each box was scheduled thereon, and the com mittee didn't have to unpack them to make this discovery. This is an example that ought to be followed generally. Columbus citizens sent 1C0 wooden pails, each packed with six cups and saucers, six plates, '-one vegetable disb, one teapot, six knives, six forks, six table sdoous. a dozen teaspoons, a r pound of tea, a pound of coffee, and to the handle of each pall was tied a coffee pot. The State of Ohio, besides sending a lot of tents, sent hospital supplies In the shape of canned fruits, jellies and other delicacies. The cloth ing that came from Cleveland was the contri bution of J. L. Hudson and Hull & Co , and was all new. "This," said one gentleman In charge of tbe supplies, "is more than can be said for lots of the clothing sent here. Much of it should never have Deen sent. It should have been burnt." There are 15 members of the Americas Clab at Morrellville. They have 100 men on their payrolls at $2 a day. Yesterday 70 men were engaged cleaning the street to Cambria City and burning the animals in the neighborhood. To-day the streets and gutters of Morrellville were placed in good sanitary condition. The Americas workers suffer greatly from lack of sleep. Some who have been hero have gone home to recuperate, and will return; others have come here to take ibelr places. H. D. W. English and A, T. Edwards were at work at headquarters until 2 -o'clock this morning. They were up and at It again at 5. This is a sample of how all are working, partly because of tbe smallness of the force, and partly be cause of the fact that trains are arriving at all hours of tbe day and night, and it is necessary to unload them at once. . Lack of sleep is, in a measure, compensated for by the fact that the commissary department is excellent. Quarters have been secured at the hotel here, and a range has been placed In the yard. A frame structure will be erected ilwvnmll llu Now laughs the sun ; the south-wind blows ; Three merry maids hang out the clothes ; Miranda, Maud, and Madaline; They hear the village clock ring nine.

President George Holllday, of tbe Pittsburg Select Council, has ceneral supervision of as signment of men to different places, and while ne is Testing helps to unload trains, relieve clerks and does anything else that comes bis way. The commissary, where the members of the club the officers and workers breakfast,dlne and sup, is in charge of J. D. Little. C. A. Car rol has charge of tbe transportation, cleaning and unloading. At Young's Hall, where tbe KiuvciicsMp Biuxeu, win xieeae jitro ijmjku Robert Knox has csatge of the stores at the planing mills and J. O. Petty has charge of the M. E. uhurcb, where supplies are stored. J. M. Gillespie has charge of the teams, and has been very much worried to find oats for them. To-day a car load arrived and were as welcome as any con tribution that has been received. It is tbe first tbe horses have had. All the teams are secured from the people of the vicinity. Two car loads of dishes of all kinds were received here yes terday. One was retained and one sent to tbe other side. What is most needed now is a sap ply of cooking utensils, knives and forks, tin ware and mattresses. It is estimated that 5,000 persons are dependent on Morrellville for re lief. Mrs. Forsyth has arrived from Pittsburg to aid the Morrellvllle committee to look up cases of persons who are In need, bat who do not ap ply for aid. One case was beard ot at Sheridan to-day, and Mrs. Forsyth was sent to ascertain what is necessary for relief. James McConahy was f onnd there at the point of death from in juries received in the flood. Two daughters, who had been saved from tbe flood with blm, were there, wretchedly clothed. They bad possessed much property in Johnstown and asked no aid from a feeling of false pride. Tney said people would not believe they were in such want if they did ask. Thoso who have charge of the distribution of goods by wagon say few suspect the wretched condition of Kernville. In one bouso that was visited the woman who came to the door Was Asked How Many there were in her family? "There are about 0," she replied. Tbe men with tbe wagon were incredulous; but investigattd and discov ered it to be true. They were victims of the flood. The house was a small one, and tbe people slept on the floor in the clothing th3y had saved, without blankets or other protection from tbe chill that descends on the valley in tbe night. This case Is only an extreme one as regards the number ot persons in the house. Tbe poor people where the members of the Relief Committee go want to pour out long tales of their sorrows, but tbe men are too busy to stay to listen. They find out the physical needs of the people, supply them and go on, while the poor souls wonder at their seeming lack of sympathy. But It is not lack of sympathy, but knowledge of the needs of all that prompts them to aeny to survivors the poor privilege of airing their griefs. The sufferers are many and the relievers few. The work must be done quickly. Mrs. F.S. Jerome, of New York, arrived here to-day. She is" president of the Yellow Cross Nurses' Association, and came to find oat what is needed by the people here. She with And an abundance of work for herself and other mem bers of the society. Mrs. Jerome served at Jacksonville daring tbe yellow fever epidemic, and before that through the Canadian small pox epidemic. She was a nurse in the lata Civil War. Simpson. TATTF.
