SGKKEEAL BASEBALL KEWB OP THE DAI
V. .
There was more baseball enthusiasm in
the city yesterday, than there has been lor
a lone time. There were two games.played
"between the New York champions and the
ocai- representatives, anu mo xiukiu
cbempionsVere very lucky, indeed, to get
one of them. The first contest was a grand
victory for the local men, and that caused
. an interest in the entire day's proceedings,
,'4 that otherwise it would not have exerted.
Therirew Yorkers are favorites here, but
:' there is not so much generous feeling in
their favor among Pittsbnrgers, even on the
Fourth of Jul v, to wish them not to be beaten.
' They are a very dangerous lot of fellows
from a baseball standpoint, ana aepena
upon it, it is an honor to beat them. How
ever, as intimated above, the visitors really
should not'have won aame at all, because
thVgime that-fell to their share was a mis
erable exhibition as far as the home players
were concerned. Still everybody in the
vast crowds seemed to be out to have some
fun, and they had it despite who was los-
r ing or h Tas winning. In the first game
tbe actual attendance was o,zo, ana id ids
second the attendance reached the pleasing
Scares of 7,75a Altogether there were more
than 13,000 people at the two games, and that
WAS XXTBEMELT GBATIJTttNG
to the officials of the teams. Each club won a
came, and that kept kept honors easy on that
ffjs score, so tbat there was nothing to mar the
jotixi xeeiing oi everyooay concerned, aue
weather was excellent until near the close of
the second rrame. when rale becran to f alL It
p- did not stop the contest, however.
. In the morning game Morris and Fields were
rj the home battery and Crane and Swing looked
alter mo interests oi ue uianu. xuo cuubfc
was exceedingly interesting to look at from
the Plttsburgs point of view, because the home
clnb always had considerably the best of it.
- O .. m f t 11 ru.flrl anfl hqil It tin kaun
for the good work of Ewing behind the bat the
home players might bave been scoring yet.
Carroll faced Crane five times and got to first
on called balls each time. Altogether Crane
gave ten men bases on balls and made a wild
F iiltrh. He as usnal dlsnlared remarkable
speed.
Morris pitch ed admirably for the home play
ers, and the visitors conlan't touch him. Ho
showed bis old-time form, and was well sup
ported by Fields. The fielding of both nines
was excellent, and many corking hits that
seemed safe beyond a doubt were gobbled' up.
Big Roger Connor banged the ball clear against
tbe left fleldfei.ee. The ball struck within an
inch of the, top of the fence, and bounded back
Into the field. Almost everybody thought tbat
it had gone over, but what might have been a
great home rnn was only a two-bagger.
SOON GOT DOWN TO TVORK.
The home team commenced run-getting as
soon as they opened tbe game. Hanlon led off
"" with a good bit, Sunday got first on balls, and
so did Carroll. Miller's single brongbt Hanlon
home, and Sunday scored on Danlap's sacri
fice hit, In the second inning Fields' single and
Morris' two-bagger, together with tbe outs,
netted another run, and no more were scored
until the eighth Inning. Knebne got home
with a run, which was made on an out, a wild
pitch and extremely good base running.
Tbe visitors also made a run in the t first
inning. Gore got to first on balls and aided by
two outs and a bad f nmble by Knehne. reached
home. In the ninth Connor made bis long
two-bagger, and O'Rourke's single brought
him home.
The second game was, to some extent, weari
some; it seemed to be slow, and the general
play was far behind that of tbe morning for
quality. A large portion of the crowd were
compelled to find seats on tbe grass, and a
"limit" was roped on". A ball that reached the
crowd was deemed a tbree-bagger, and New
York cot two of them. Keefe and Ewing
were the visitors' battery, and Galvin and Mil
ler were at the points for tbe borne players.
There was any amount of confidence in the
air that anotber roast was in store for tbe big
fellows. Old Ualvin went capering across the
diamond like a two-year colt when the game
started, but before it was over, he showed the
crowd that it
WASN'T ENTIBELY JEEMS DAT.
He pitched a 7ery tame game compared to
what he has been doing lately. He was wild
and ineffective. The Giants also had a
borrowed mascot in tbe shape of a small boy,
whose dress was more grotesque than usual.
Bnt this mascot and tbe moderate pitching of
Galvin were probably not so disastrous as two
errors that tbe home fielders made in tbe first
- two innings. These two errors cost four runs,
and tbat really settled the game. They were
very stupid errors, and It was bard to under
stand how such mistakes could be made.
Keefe pitched very well, indeed, except in
the third inning, wben be was touched up very
lively. At critical stages the great Sir Timothy
was on hand, and did business to the Queen's
taste. The visitors, generally speaking, fielded
v ell, and taking every thing Into considera
tion, played a good game. It may be noted
that Dunlap and Sunday made two. brilliant
catches of file", and effected double plays.
Hanlon also in deep center, that is near wnere
the crowd was lined, made a brilliant one
handed catch.
Tbe visitors were first to score, and they
made two runs in the firstmning. Gore reached
first on being bit by a pitched ball, and Tier
nan made a scratch hit into tbe middle of the
diamond. Both n- ?ere advanced a base by
Swing's sacrifice to Carroll.and Connor got first
on balls. Wbile Richardson was at bat Miller
made a wild throw to third to nab Gore, and
Tiernan scored.
O'BOUBKE CAUGHT NAPPING.
In tbe next inning O'Ronrke led off with a
. lilt to left, but was splendidly caught napping
", at first by Galvin. Hatfield was retired at first,
but Whitney made a single to left.
Then Keefe reached first on Smith's
bad fumble. Gore got his base
on balls. Tiernan's crack to middle for a sin-
gle brought In two more runs, and things
looked blue for Pittsburg. Connor commenced
the third inning, and thumped the ball Into
tbe crowd in right field for three bases and
Richardson's single brought him bo me. After
Connor was out in the fifth Inning Ricbardson
whacked tbe ball into tbe left-field crowd for
three bases, and got home on O'Rourke's sac
rifice bit. That ended tbe Giants' run-getting.
The home players tied tbe wore in tbe third
Inning, and there was tremendous excitement.
They banged Keefe all over tbe lot, making
four runs, three of which were earned. Han-
v Ion led oil with a single to middle and Sunday
went to first on balls. Carroll knocked a long
fir to O'Ronrke. and Miller's sacrifice ad
vanced Hanlon and Sunday to third and sec
ond. Dunlap brought tbem both In by a bit
to right, and Kuehne's double brought Dunlap
, home. Then old Pop Smith loomed up with a
double and Kuebne scored, bnt Fields retired
rha aide bv a fly to Gore. After the third in
ning the borne players bad no show at all with
Keefe. They never got another hit. McQuaid
did not give satisfaction. Score:

Chicago, July 4. The forenoon game be
tween Chicago and Washington was the most
miserable exhibition of ball playing witnesscdat
tbe White Stocking Park this season. Chicago
fell onto Ferson in the third, and with all sorts
of errors by tbe Senators,' rolled up nine runs.
Healy was set in to pitch in tbe fifth and held
tbe Cbicagos down to two hits. With the ex
ception of Ryan's magnificent running catch of
Healy's long bit in the ninth, the game was
wholly without features of interest. Attend

Chicago won the afternoon game by bunching
their bits in tbe fifth Inning. O'Day pitched a
very effective game, but his bases on balls in
many instances were prodnctire of runs. Gum
bert was touched np for ten bits, but managed
to keep them well scattered. The batting of

features of note. Attendance 8.900. Score:

THE AFTEBNOON.
St. Louis, July 4. The Brooklyns can thank
Latham for winning this afternoon's game
from the Browns, After the latter had the
game well In hand Latham's contribution of
errors did the business for them. He played
the worst game he ever did here. After
chances were given to retire the side. King was
hit bard. He did remarkably well considering
his poor support, Lorett was hit hard and
gave way to Carutbers in the sixth. Bushong
was taken sick and Vlsner took his place.

ABOUT THE COLONELS.
A Thorough Reorganization to Take Place
nt LonlavlIIr.
rSFXCTAX. TXXEOBAU TO TBE DISPATCH
Louisville, July 4. "We need a new bat
tery worse than anything else," said Mr.
George Rieger, In whose name the Louisville
club was purchased. "Ramsey Is the only
pitcher who is at all in fix, Ewing being sick
and Stratton havitag a sore shoulder. Hecker,
of course, will be kept on first base except In
emergencies. We will have a new pitcher and
catcher In a few days, and another fielder."
Mr. Whittaker. of the Athletic clttb, said
this afternoon: "I think the LouisvilleswiU
finish fifth in the race. Tbey are stronger
than either the Kansas City or Colnmbns
teams, ar.d all they need Is a little reorganiza
tion and judicious management. There is no
club in the country that I bad ratber see pull
up than tbe Louisvilles."
The new management Is likely to gst Duffee,
of St. Louis, for their new fielder: though the
Athletics would like to sell Mattimore, for
whom they bave no particular use' just now.
Hoover, tbe Kansas City catcher, will probably
be signed for tbe receiving end of the new bat
tery. The absence of Pete Browning from left
field weakens the team, as ijtratton's shoulder
is too sore to throw welL Pete has notreported
since the club got home and It is pretty certain
tbat he will be released. Ehret is also likely to
go. It turns out that Davidson did not sur
render the franchise of the club to the Asso
ciation, though he so informed several repor
ters. Mr. Whittaker stated this afternoon
tbat the-Athletics had official information that
he had given up the club. Consequently he
had a perfect right to dispose of it.
THE COUNTY LEAGUE.
Enct Endera Capture Two Good Games
From the Braddock Team.
The East End Athletics went to Braddock
yesterday afternoon, and defeated the home
team in two Interesting games before a large
audience. The feature of tbe second game waj
the wonderful work of Will Gumbert, who
made his first essay in the pitcher's box. abd
held the hard-hittine Blues down to three little
bits, and struck out 16 men.
Gumbert was wild in tbe first inning, but
after that be settled down and tbe Braddock
boys could hardly touch the leather, let alone
make a bit. Scboyer supported him in great
style, saving several wild pitches by good atop.
Gumbert's best ball is a terrific In-sboot, and
his speed is something wonderful. If he can
only get control of his drop ball, he will un
doubtedly make a pitcher of the first-class
order. Score:

fSPXCIALELXOEAK TO TBS DISPATCH.
Wheelino. W. Va., July 4. There came
very near being a riot on the ball ground at the
afternoon game. Umpire Charles Barrett
started the row by his extremely bad work,
calling two Canton men safe who were palpa
bly ont. During the remainder of the game
the 2.000 people present badly roasted the um
pire by cat-calls and hisses, and at the end of
the game a wild rush for him was made by
about 00 or 600 men. Cushions were hurled at
blm. clubs and chunks of stones thrown, and
several persons. Including two police who were
attempting to protect blm, were hit.
Finally Barrett was rushed out of a side gate
by the police, but not until he had drawn a bil
ly in bis own defense. For this be was put un
der arrest, and a break was made up Broadway-
About ISO men still followed, hooting
and howling, and a back bad to be called into
service, into which Barrett was placed. He
was driven to police headquarters and locked
up. About 11 o'clock he was released on bail.

- THE 8ELMONT8 BEATEN.
Pittshnrg Cricketers Trim Up tbe Yonng
Men From Philadelphia.
The Belmont-Pittsburg match at Brushton
yesterday ended In a decisive victory for the
local men by flte wickets. Belmont won the
toss, and elected to bat, but the bowling and
fielding of the home team were so good that
they were all dismissed for 63 runs. Pitts
burg's opening was most disastrous, as four
good man were retired for eight runs. Wben
Pyatt and Horn became associated; however,
the game seemed assured, but after their dis
missal the outlook was again rather dubious.
FrankUcbwartz proved himself equal to tbe oc
casion, and the first inning ended amid some
little excitement, with Plttsbnrg fire runs in
tbe lead. In the second inning Belmont again
scored 63. After this tbe game was never in
doubt, as tbe local men batted much better
than they did in tbe previous inning.
Tbe features of tbe match were the fine
bowling of Burrows and tbe brilliant fielding
of both teams. Pyatt, Horn and J. E. Schwartz
making excellent catches for Pittsburg, and
Hollowell and Coates for Belmont. Scores:

ISRCIAI, TXXXOBAK TO TBI DISPATCH. 1
LonDOir, July 4. (Copyriglit). The Has-
sachusetts rifle men shot their fourth match,
to-day, their opponents being 12 of the best
marksmen County Essex could get together.
The range was situated on South Downs,'
near Brighton. It is the proud boast of the
folks thereabouts that the Downsare always'
breezy, and the Americans quickly arrived
at the conclusion that the natives must be
right. To-day a normal breeze developed
into a fair imitation of a hurricane, but the
local sportsmen would not bare It that the wind
was more than fresh. Tbe fact remains, however
that the"wlnd was very strong and blew right
across tbe range in an erratic fashion, very be
wildering to the strangers. Major Frost seemed
anxious, almost unhappy, wben, for tbe first
time since their arrival in England, his men
were beaten In their favorite standing range.
200 yards, in which they were actually 12 points
behind the Sussex men; but they pulled them
selves together at the longer ranges and finally
won tbe best contested match they have been
engaged in this side of tbe Atlantic by 883
against 910 points. Tbe best American score,
02, was made by Lieutenant Hussey. which was
7 ahead of the top score on the other side. To
morrow the Americans will revisit Kunbead
range, where they will meet some crack shots
of tbe South London Clnb. All the Massachu
setts boys started out to-day with a firm inten
tion to enjoy the national holiday with discre
tion. Bat flesh Is weak and American patriot
ism and conviviality strong. 2 erertheless, the
South Londoners, although they have been
practicing assiduously to-day, are not likely to
lower the stars and stripes.
The Philadelphia cricketers commenced a
match at Dublin to-day against the gentlemen
of Irelrnd, in delightful weather and in the
Eresence of a big crowd, among whom were a
cart-stealing array of Erin's daughters, clad In
the most bewitching summer costumes. The
manner In which the Philadelpblans played
cricket to-day against the Dublin University
crack teams has made them respected, and the
gentlemen to day played with a steadiness and
caution almost ludicrous, considering tbe slight
estimation in wbich tbe.visitors were held until
they bad proved their prowess. Ihe gentlemen
made 20G tbe first inning, and at7 o'clock, when
the stumps were drawn for tbe day, tbe Phila
delphia's score stood 189 for a loss of seven wick
ets: Brown, 28: Thompson, 14; ;ciark, 52; Pat
terson, 20: Morgan, Si, not out; Brewster, 16;
Brown, 8, not out.
Sculler O'Connor arrived at Queenstown to
night in excellent health and fall of confi
dence. Mr. Dietson is !here trying to arrange for
some of the best British lawn tennis players to
visit the United States and take part in tbo
world's championship tournament. Up to tbe
present he has done more sight-seeing than
business.
