Nobody saw any worms or chinch bugs on the game between Chicago and Pittsburg to-day. It was one of the prettiest contests at the Congress street grounds this season, and it had a tail so large that it almost flung Anson out of the yard with one swash. Hutchinson and Scaley pitched remarkable ball, but the latter did not receive good support, the l&rge, fat gentleman in the left field for the visitors being responsible for one ot Chicago's rnns. This same gentleman made another seemingly disastrous error, but the rest of his colleagues managed to retrieve what had been" lost, and thereby held the score down to small figures. The fatnocs stonewall infield of the home team played with the precision and dash of former days. For the visilois MTTX.E JACK FIELDS -WOW much applause by his excellent work behind the bat. Big Fred Carroll made three out rageous errors in the first inning. If any more errors or worse errors were ever made in a single inning by one player, the books fail to record the performance. Can oil muffed Van Haltren's easy fly, fell over Anson's short single and then came pretty nearly banting the ball into the grand stand in an effort to catch Van Haltren at the plate. In the second, thitd and fourth innings Chi cagos went ont in the order in which they went to bat. In the fifth, Williamson and Farrell pounded out singles, bat stupid base running and somo clever work by the Fennsylvanlans' inflold kept tbem from scoring. Senator Ran opened the sixth with a long high drive over the Congress street wall for a home run after 'Williamson bad struck ont in the sixth. Far rell hit safely, hat was doubled up with Barns a. moment later on the latter's sharp grounder to Howe. HUTCH INSOJT I!f FOBM. In the eighth the Cliicagos did not get a man past first base. Hutchinson's command over the ball was too much tor the visitors. They sawed away with great desperation but rarely succeeded in placing a hit. Rowe hit safely in the first Inning and Carroll in the third, but neither got farther than first bass. After Beckley had been retired In the fourth. Fields cracked a liner to left, and on an error by ViIliamson, who let Hanlon's hot grounder gallop between hi legs, the backstop then went to third, then Hutchinson made a wild pitch aud Fields started for home. He was caught at the plate on a close decision. The visitors went out in order in the fifth. Carroll opened the sixth on a safe hit, but the remark able work of Pfeffer, Williamson and Burns prevented any runs, although the hitting at the infield by Rowe, Beckley aud Fields was ter rific. Not one of the Fennsylvanlans reached first base in the seventh and eichth Innings. Everybody now thought that the visitors would be shut ont,and many spectators started to leave the grounds as the Pittsbnrgs came in to take their last crack of the balL Beckley galloped over the sward, and in a voice which seemed to come out of his boots and roll in great billows into the stands, announced that he was going to get some runs. Rowe was first at the bat. He MADE A BASE HIT. Then Beckley, true to his word, smashed a furious grounder to right, which Pfeffer beat down in a most miraculous way with one band. There were now two men on bases and nobody out. Fields hit sharnly to Barns, who ;atii;ht Beckley at second. In the meantime Row e bad reached third. Hanlon drove a blistering grounder to Williamson, fumbled it for an in stant ami then shot it to Pfeffer in time to nip Fields. Rnwe clattered over the plate on the play. Hanlon was on first when Sunday hoisted the hall away out into the infield for two bases. Then began a desperate run for the tying score. Both runners ran desperately but Hanlor. made a fatal error when he stopped on third. Had he kept right on he conld have scored easily. When Emperor William Kuehne came to bat be found Hanlon on third, Sunday on second and the crowd in a. cold sweat. Hutchinson got two strikes on the German hen the latter gave the ball a hideous swipe in the face. A groan arose from the stands. It looked as though the ball was going to the carriages. Van Haltren started after the ball on a keen run and by a short leap into the air squeezed it to his breast. The crowd cave a wild yell of exultation and then passed out into the street.

Tcemer Ignores I.onlsYltle People and Will Row Here. rsrXCIAL TU.EOBAM TO TUX DISFATCn.l McKeesport, Angust;23. John Teemer to day received a very excellent offer from Louisville, Ky for the proposed race between himself and Gaudaur. and also big money offers from several other places, and refused all of tbem. "Simply because the race is going to be rowed at McKeesport," said Teemer. He would not row it elsewhere, and no matter what offers are made will not take the race away from Pittsbnrg. Teemer has completed all arrangements that he can look after for the race and is training like a Trojan with great satisfaction, thanks to Evan Hughes, bis trainer, who has the joke on Teemer. who, when speaking of him to your correspondent, called him Evan Davis. Tbe Louisville offer was a very reasonable one for the great race, and knowing as well as he does what a terrible crowd tbe raco would draw there, Teemer prefer to row the race near Pittsburg, and knows that if he rows Gaudaur again that it will be compulsory to row in water more public than tbe beautiful Monongahela, which is almost hidden on one side by bills and on the other by manufactures plants. The oarsmifh is rowing well, and shows up very satisfactory in his trials, much more so than ever before, and. will give Gaudaur a terrible tussle Sep. tember 13. W. A. Nicker, chief salesman ot A. Sbnman t Co tbe largest wholesale mer chants of Boston, a warm friend of Teenier, will arrive here September 1 and will remain until after tbe race. He will look after Teemer' interests and attend to all prelimi nary arrangements about the course, etc., so as to allow Teemer to do nothing bnt train for tbe race. Gaudaur will arrive with Hamm and the boat September 1 also. A Boat Race for Blood. rSrXClAI, TXLXGBAHTOTHZDlirATCB.l Br aver Faixs, August 23.

Admirers of the trotting horse who went to "Washington Park enjoyed a great day's sport to-day, the fifth of the Northwestern Breeders' Associa tion meeting. The phenomenal 3-year-old stallion, Axtell, (trotted a mile in 2:14, and another 3-year-old, the bay stallion Aller ton, in the third heat of a bruising race, made the circuit of the traok in 2:1 Besides these events the race for the 221 class was very prettily contested, and required six heats to finish it. Axtell's mfie In 2:14 clips three-quarters of a second from his former record of 2:14, not withstandirg the fact that even that record was betterthan the best previous performance of either a, 3-year-old or a 4-year-old. It is also within three-quarters of a second ot Patron's 2:13i, which stand as the best record for a stallion of any age. Tbe circumstances under which this record was made are likely to give rise to endless dis cussion as to whether it was a record in a race or against time. Axtell and Earl McGregor were on the card of the day as starters in the stallion stake and the card also announced that Axtell would go to beat his own record. The first beat was trotted under the usual con ditions ot a race, and served merely as a warmer, being done in 2:19. Id the next heat, that in which the record was made, distance was waived, and Axtell I . HiHnlit- liAreai a Aniwinnw nt-isl AV-.Mi-.n-r. age him from the upper tarn to the finish. Earl McGregor being far behind and cutting no figure in it. It should be said -that the beat was trotted squarely and wlthont a skip to within about 7o feet of tbe wire, when, owing to bad judgment in the handling of the runner, the little stallion was started into a run and galloped under the wire. Whether or not he gained by the break Is an open question. Both Axtell and Allerton are owned by a lucky youna man, C. W. Williams, ot Independence, la. Before Axtell went his fast mile, Colonel John W. Uonley approached Mr. Williams and askedihim to put a price on the animal. Mr. Williams replied that be was not prepared to name k price. "Will you take $100,000 for him r" said Con lev. I "If Ilwere offered $100,000 for him a positive offer,"replied Mr. Williams, "I would consider it." j 'Think the matter over," were Colonel Con ley's parting words, "and if you decide to take that amount let me know." Colot el Uonley declines to give tbe name of the pri icipalwhom he represents in these nego tiation . r Folio wing are the summaries: 2:10 cl iss: Fraok Middleton .1 4 3 2 111 Almon A t 13 4 2 2 Sally I Msack.
