I V TRIG W COLTS, The Old Club Youngsters Show Up in Great Style. MB. HECKER IS DELIGHTED. Al Johnson's Incident About Palmer O'Keill and Beckiey. THE SPOETI&'G SEWS OF THE DAY Manager Hecfcer began testing the young players of the old League club. Their work was in some respects remarkable. The old club directors won't trouble Beckiey about his last jump. Arrangements have been completed for Saturday's big shooting contests at Exposition Park. There was a big horse sale at Chicago. J. Palmer O'JJeill, Manager Hecker, Al Pratt aud others, good judges of baseball playing, are now certain that the old League club of this city will be a good one this sea son. The "colts" were given a good try yesterday at Eecreation Park, and without doubt they acquitted themselves well. The per formance of a few of them went clearly to show the truth of that old adage to the effect that there are just as rood fish m the sea as has been canent. About 12 of the youne men were put through a reasonable amount of exercise, and Mr. O'Neill was specially on hand to see bow they would perform. After watching tbem for near ly two hours be said: HOPES ABE HIGH. "I am convinced that my theory is right. I am now certain that w e will soon have as good a team in Pittsburg as there ever was. I am also more than ever satisfied that the star players of the old League have by their de sertion opened the way for young men who will in a very short lime make jnst as good ball teams as we have seen in the history of the game." Manager Hecker was delighted and did not hesitate to say that be will have a team of players that will surprise somebody by good playing. During the afternoon it was inti mated that the old club directors arc negotia ting for Dunlap to play second base. Nothing authentic, that is officially, coal J be learnea about the matter, but the report seemed to be correct. Dunlap, of course, will not be paid as big a salary as he received last year, but a good offer has been, or at least will be made to him. THEY 'WAUT DUNLAP. Mr. O'Neill, it is understood, is desirous of having Dunlap back again and President Nimick is not opposed to it providing Dunlap's demands are not too steep. "Danny," is un doubtedly a good player when he is in a play ing mood and it is thonght that should he. re join the old team circumstances will keep him in a mood that will prompt him to do the very best he can. True, be is somewhat out of puKlc favor here, bnt if he was to play in his old time form be will so"n be as popular as ever. Yesterday afternoon pitchers Schmitt, Baker and Jones were tried. The first named dis played remarkable speed and also showed that he could pitch a very puzzling slow curved ball. Altogether he made a god impression. Baker and Jones each pleased the critics with a peculiar drop ball and Sir Gny was so de lighted over it that he said: "Well there's as fine a drop as I have ever seen, and don't you forget it."" Catchers Berger. Wilson and Bradenburg gave good satisfaction, particularly the last named in throwing to second base. There have been reports enrrent to the effect that Braden burg could not throw to second base. His efforts yesterday, however, shows the contrary to be the fact. The indications are that he will be a good catcher. Berger and Wilson also did M ell. THE TOUXG IXFIELDERS. Among the inficldcrs Youngman, Roat and Laroque aid extremely well. If Dunlap does not play at second. Manager Hecker remarked, Youngman will be there and if Dunlap plajs Youngman will be at short. Laroque is a good man. But probably the most pleasing feature of the afternoon was the fielding of Routcliffe and Hemp. The latter is another Sunday for speed and seems to be able to lay his bands on almost anything. One thing is certain, viz that, judging from his work of yesterday, there have been few. if any, better outfielders in Pitts burg. He is as lively as a cat. Beyond all, the youngsters are full of enthusiasm, and they will certainly impart sufficient life into a came to make it exceedingly interesting. The old League will have a cood local club. It. Mays, an all-round player from Warren, Pa., arrived yesterday, and -will be given a trial to-dar. JOHXSOX'S REMINDER. He Xlecnlls an Incident Between Himself nnd Palmer O'Xrill. rsrECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISr-ATCH.I CLEVELAND, O., March IS. "I knew that Beckiey was comg to flop to tho Brotherhood last week," said Al Johnson to-night. "During the Players' meeting I went with Hanlon to the telegraph office when he sent tho message to Beckiey." Talking about Beckiey." continued Johnson, "reminds me of a funny incident occurring be tween J. Palmer O'Neill and myself. We were talking baseball in the Wcddell House, when O'Neill made the remark that there were two men in Pittsburg who couldn't bo touched by either side." " 'Who are they?' said V M 'Beckiey and Carroll,' was tho reply. Honest Jake will not go back on his contract in spite of all the! talking you fellows can do, and we wouldn't think of such a thing as going to Fred Carroll.' "Twenty-four hours after," said Johnson. "O'Neill read that Beckiey had flopped. I haven't seen him since." WON'T TROUBLE HIM. The Old Lengue Club Will Take Heckle;' Advance Money Back. Manager Hanlon visited Secretary Scandrett yesterday and tendered him the $500 which the old clun bad advanced Beckiey. Mr. Scandrett refused the money, claiming that Beckiey had been advanced JKO. The MO in dispute is that for which Beckiey claims lie has never re ceived a check. Manager Hanlon wired Beck ley on the matter 3 esterday afternoon and it is expected that the affair will be settled to-day. That the old club is pursuing the wisest course in allowing Beckiey to go without trouble seems to be the general opinion. It is useless to try and deny that he has acted fairly in the matter. The fact that ho has lived all winter on the old club's money and at the last moment turn his back on them is not relished by either friend or foe. This is looked upon as a very grave fault, indeed, and probably the old club will gain much sympathy by acting in the affair as above stated. Baseball at Denver. rSPZCIAI.

In the tenth, eleventh and twelfth rounds Curtis tried to rush Smith and the lit ter's hurricane work won him the fight In the fifteenth round Curtis came up looking tired. He was hammered all over the ring and was knocked over the ropes three times. In the sixteenth round Smith again adopted hurricane fighting. Curtis could not cet away from him but was knocked down six times. He tried to hold his own but was done for. He led out two or three times viciously but failed to land, meantime getting a hammnrinsr that would have put many a man to sleep. When about half the round had passed Smith sud denly shot out his right and swung a smasher on Curtis' neck. Itsent him to the ropes, where Smith followed him and rained blow after blow on him. Finally, with a desperate rally, Curtis got out in the center of the ring, threw all his strength into a right-band blow, directed at Smith's jugular, and failed to land. Quick as a flash Smith landed on Curtis, knocking him through the ropes. As Curtis drew up he got a smashing upper cut under the chin that put him to sleep aud ended the mill. CHICAGO H0KSE SALE.

Each county has a central organization, receives in structions from the State headquarters, which are subordinate again to the National Alliance. This thorough organization has made the order exceptionally strong. LOCAL ITEMS, LIMITED. Incidents of a Day in Tvro Cities Condensed for Rendr Rendlnir.

Interest in Pennsylvania is now centered upon the granting of saloon licenses. In Bntler county oil operators object to saloon and in Huntingdon a judge insists that prohibition is responsible for the great num ber of illegal drinking places. The news of three States is concise and interesting. rBrJCCIAL TBLIOBAM TO TOI DISPATCH.l Butler, Pa., March 18. Court will meet here to-morrow to hear the petitions for and asrainst the granting of licenses to sell intoxicating liquors. There are nine applications for wholesale and 20 for tavern licenses. Remonstrances have been filed in but one case, that of Phillip Nicholas, who wants to sell ardent spirits at Petersville, a qniet little village in. tbe midst of the Hundred-Foot oil field. Not only the old settlers, but a number of the oil operators have petitioned the court to refuse tbe license, for the reason that the sale of liquor at that place "will greatly interfere with the business of those engaged in the drilling and operating of oil wells in said township, and in the community in which the house is located." The W. C. T. TJ., which has annually protested against all licenses, will not appear in court at all. At Huntingdon For the first time in three years, petitions were presented to the court to-day for license to sell liquor. Under three years of nominal prohibition speak easies and private drinking clubs have sprung up all ever this town nnd county, with a membership numbering into the hun dreds. This coming to the attention of Judge Furst to-day, became the text for a very vigor ous and pointed stricture on prohibition ad vocates whom he accused of being responsible for its existence. PROHIBITION AND SPEAK-EASIES. "It seems." said he, "that prohibition in this county encourages the creation and maintenance of spcak-easies and private drinking establishments and the increase in the drinking of liquor. Judsre Furst Is favorable to the granting of licenses to responsible applicants, but as tbe same associate judges who over-ruled him three years ago are still on tho bench, a favorable decision on the present applications is simply conjectural. license court in .Lawrence county Degins to-morrow morning. There are 31 applicants all but 8 being in New Castle. There are H for hotels, 10 for restaurauts, 3 for whole sale, 3 for breweries, aud 1 for bottlers. Should all be granted it will increase the present number by eight. The temperance neoplo are inactive over the matter, except in a re monstrance against Wm. Simpson, at Eden burg. Judge Wickham granted the following li censes for Rochester borough to-day: Hotels, Doncaster House,St. James; wholesale, Benj. F. Pfeiffer and Harry Streit. Tho usual re monstrances were filed. LAW AND ORDER OBJECTIONS. The campaign of the Law and OrderLeague at Reading has been opened by tho filing of CI remonstrances against hotel and saloonkeep ers who applied for licenses. Of these 53 are against saloons in the city, and 11 in the coun try. The grounds for remonstrances are viola tions of tbe law in selling on Sunday or to mi nors, keeping gambling or disorderly houses, harboring dissolute women and that tbe places are not necessary for public accommodation. Some 400 witnesses have been subpoenaed to give testimony for the remonstrants. Tho bearing will begin on Monday next. Seventeen applications for license have been made to the Washington county court. The temperance people are making great efforts to keep these licenses from beiug granted. Judge Wickham, of Beaver county, states that he will depart from bis custom of refusing wholesale licenses, because he finds that it merely leads to agents from abroad doing busi ness in Beaver.

Northfield, this county, is stirred up over tbe mutilation of the remains of John Campbell, aged 50, who died a month aco. Campbell's brother and nephew were the only relatives present at his funeral, and they had the remains put in a vault. A day or tiro ago. when they went backfor the burial, they found that the coffin had been tampered with, the head and face of tbe corpse had been shaved, the work of dissection had been begun on part of the body and that it was spat tered with mud and clad in other garments than those worn at the funeral. The theory ii that the body had been taken from the coffin, sent to a Cleveland medical college, and the body snatchers. fearing detec tion, snipped it back and replaced it in the vault. Great indignation exists here, and a thorough investigation is being made. Two weeks ago a young physician at Northfield brought an order for the body to the sexton of tbe cemeterv, claiming that Campbell bad no relations.

Verdict of the Coroner's Jury on the Bay View Railroad Disaster. Buffalo, March 18. Inquest on the Bay View disaster of March 6 was ended to day. The jury charges the Lake Shore management with gross negligence of rules. The verdict in part runs thus: Trains of such length (11 cars) should not be run upon this or any other railroad with only two trainmen. And this jury has reason to be lieve that Division Superintendent Charles B. Couch has knowledge that passonger trains hstve been run on said road in an unsafe and crfopled condition; and that it he hadexacted a rigid enforcement of their rules and regula tions this accident could not have happened. The jury holds Conductor J. W. Hough taling directly and culpably responsible for the lives lost in the wreck. OFFICERS NOT INFALLIBLE. Chief Brown Says IDs Men Make Mistakes Like Other People.

Eeally Nothing of the South Perm Koad That Conld be Sold. THE SHERIFF HIMSELF PUZZLED To Know Why He Went Thron-h the Mo tions of Disposing of It. COSTLY PIERS IN THE SUSQUEHANNA nave Eeen Quietly Gobbled by the Fenusyliania EiiUoad Company. Now that George F. Baer has bought the South Penn there is a great question as to just what he secured. It is said that neither the right of way, road bed, tunnels nor charter can be sold. The Pennsylvania Company has obtained the costly piers in the Susquehanna at Harrisburg. rSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO THB DISPATCH. I New York, March 18. Sheriff Pittmau, of Fulton county, Pennsylvania, who sold the South Penn Bailroad at a judgment sale the other day, is at a loss to know just what he sold, and George F. Baer, who purchased the road at the sale for 52,500, in the interest of the Philadelphia and Beading Bailroad, is trying to find out what he bought. When work on the South Penn Bailroad was in progress, before the affairs of the company were thrown into court and the whole scheme of rivaling the Pennsylvania virtually destroyed, the com pany bad its main office in McConnellsburg, and got into debt for room rent and other expenses which it failed to pay. The credi tors obtained a judgment against the com pany in Fulton county, and it was on this judgment that the road was sold. A LITTLE DIFFICULTY. But there is no road. The road bed, tun nels, masonry, etc., which were partially completed before work was stopped, cost a million or two of dollars, but none of these can be sold, for they are not real estate in the eye ot the law. The charter cannot be sold, because it is in the enstody of the county and not amenable to any liabilities, either personal or corporate. The right of way is not an asset of the company for it was granted conditionally and is void when five years pass without the road being com pleted. The five-year limit is nearly up. The Beading Bailroad Company is ex tending its system from Harrisburg up the Cumberland Vallev by constructing a road known a3 'the Harrisburg Terminal. One of tbe most important and costly pieces of work done by the South Pennsylvania Com pany was the building of the 24 massive cut stone piers in the Susquehanna river at Harrisburg, which were to carry the 5500,000 railroad bridge across that stream. The possession of these piers was something the Beading Company had m view in the build ing of the Harrisburg Terminal, not only on account of the time they would save in throwing a bridge over the Susquehanna, but because of the greater saving in money which would be insured. SOMETHING OF A SUBPBISE. The supposed owners of the piers were, of course, opposed to the Pennsylvania Bail road's interests, and the Beading naturally expected to have no trouble in getting this important line of masonry. When Presi dent Corbin went to Harrisburg for that purpose he was much surprised to learn, therefore, that tbe Ownership of the piers had been the transferred to the Pennsylva nia Bailroad. No one seemed able to give any information as to how the astounding cuauge in vine naa oeen niaae, out mat it had been made there was no doubt. So the Beading had to contract for the building ot an entirely new set of piers, and, of course, the Sheriff's sale inFuItou county cannot cover the old South Pennsylvania piers. The sale, therefore, is a puzzle to both sheriff and purchaser of the property vaguely sold as "The South Pennsylvania Bailroad," and another complication is added to the numberless complications that already envelop and confound the affairs of that luckless project. TPJED TWICE TO SHUFFLE. John Mnlloy Makes Two Desperate At' tempts at Salclde. John Malloy, a young man who lives on the hillside above Steuben street, near No. 1 engine house, in the West End, made two attempts at suicide yesterday, and was in the Thirty-second ward station house last night handcuffed to the iron tars of the cell.
