YOUNG'S CIRCULAR Opinions About Corbetl's Contest With Dominick McCaffrey. O'COKNOR-STANSBURX BOAT BACE Veil, the actual baseball straggle of 1890 fens started. "We all know now what the commencement was like, but goodness knows what the end will be. Before that Tery de sirable event will come there will hare been more angry feeling and unpleasantness im ported into the surroundings of the national game than years will obliterate. This will be one of the features of this Tery unfortun ate contest that all of us, I think, will most regret However, such is the circumstance of conflict. VTe cannot have a life and death contest minus enemies and friends. Yester day's opening ot the contest for public pat ronage couldn't well have been a surprise to those ho haTe kept pace with the controversy that has been coins on between the contending parties during; the winter. That the pnblic should be inclined to bestow its uatronace, or at least the preponderance of its patronage on the new organization in the opening ot the season is something that every one of us ought to have expected. There is novelty in new things to the public jnst as there is novelty In a new toy to a child, and novelty always causes more or less curiosity. This novelty, however, wears off, and to sustain that lining or affinity for that which was once new there must be somethlnc more substantial than novelty. To be brief, good and victorious kail playing will assuredly be the magnet after two or three weeks are over. I am aware that there is a very strong sentiment abroad among the masses in favor of the new Zjcagne. Yesterday's events proved this If any proof were needed. To a great extent this sentimont is founded on a similar to what we find in the lines of Burns: "Wba wad be a coward slavi? Wha wad be a traitor knave?" The popular notion is. undoubtedly, to the 3ect that the new departure is to escape from the unjust treatment of certain capitalists. It is not opportune to argue the rignt or wrong of that opinion just now. It is sufficient to say that It exists and very strongly. This senti ment, then, may be deep-rooted enough to impel those who bold it to continue their patronage to the new League irrespective of good, bad or Indifferent ball playing. Yesterday's Lensont. I see no reason for the friends of the Na tional League to have feelings of despondency because the crowds were against them yester day. If the circumstance would mean anything particularly it would mean that the National League goes on the even tenor of its way with more determination than ever. Permanent success is not like Jonah's gourd; it does not spring up in a night or a day. We often find the popularity of yesterday transferred into censure to-day: we make a hero one day and bestrew his path with palms, and the next day butcher him in cold blood. And so it may be in baseball. None of us can absolutely say that it won't. But what I claim is, judging from pres ent conditions, the National League has the better prospects in one respect. It is snre to de velop some sterling players during the season, and that is the most encouraging feature of the entire business. At present the local Players' team is one of the best in the country. I don't refer to the work of the players yesterday, be cause one game proves very little, but by a caref nl analysis of the entire team I come to that conclusion. They will get better. The local National League team is the most prom ising In the country, and I anticipate that be fore the season is ended Pittsburg will be proud of it Prmldcnl Young's Circular. Two or three days ago President N. E. Young, of the National League, issued a circu lar to the managers of each club in the League that is worthy of notice. Its object is certainly a worthy one, and doubtless every fair-minded patron of the national game ho has read it will deem it a very worthy and opportune effusion. The entire burden of the circular is one of admonition to managers and through them to the players. As a rule, advice is about one of the cheapest things in the world. We can get bushels of it every day for nothing and, generally speaking, I venture to say that we get about SHlper cent more than we are inclined to accept. The great difficulty with all of us lies not in the scarcity of advice or admonitions but rather in determining u hat is good and what is bad. When we are able to make this destination and have the courage to refuse that which is bad then we have accomplished a very noble deed. Well, 1 don't think there will be much difficulty in qualifying the admonitions of Mr. Young in this instance. I have looked overthem very caref ully, indeed, and I have come to the conclusion that if they are lived up to we will have an organization of very respectable ball players ot excell ent de portment. The advice of the presides! regard ing the conduct and appearance of ball players In public is of special value to the young play ers who have just been imported into the Na tional League, and they would do well to "read, mark, learn and inwardly digest" it. But tne great utility of Mr. Young's circular is not confined to the young players who have only recently joined the National Leagne. It points nut one fact at least that every baseball plajer. that is profe.-sional plater, in the coun try ought not to forget, viz.: That be is a pub lic character, and that as such his public traits and actions are continually under public sur veillance. In tbe past some baseball players, prompted by au inflated notion of their na tional importance, have persistently over stepped the limits of even ordinary responsi bility. Nothing can be more ruinous to an or gauizatiou thau conduct of this kind on the part of its representatives. We may not at all times be able to get first-class ball players, but certainly we ouht always to be able to secure gentlemen. Ad Interesting; MiccentloB. A correspondent from Mansfield Valley, this State: "Mr. Pringle, I read with interest and generally with approval your very able and im partial review of sports in The Dispatch; but there is one phase of the baseball subject that I have not seen mentioned anywhere that I would like to see you handle. "If the various teams of the Players' League should prove to be evenly matcheu and conse quently arc almost even in numDer of games lost and won the public interest in the League will be maintained. But should these teams be unevenly matched and the games won in the earl) part of ) be season be one-rided, for in stance, just like those of the Natiunal League last season, win noi puuuc interest decline: particularly if the teams of the National Leagne be putting up good ball on an even con test? -Under these circumstances, provided the Players' League or Biotberhood is as much a unit in fact as they have endeavored to make tbe public believe, and tbe interest of one is to be tbe Interest of all as it is claimed, will they not be tempted and liable to yield lo the tempta tion of adjusting matters by prearrangement rather than lse the public interest? In other words, will they not be likely to put up a job on the public by professing to play an honest game while in fact it would be no contest at all? "If the thought seems to you to be worthy of consideration m The Dispatch I shall be much interested in reading it." The letter Is signed J. Ilillier. Mr. Hllllrr's QnclloD. I venture to say that tbe questions propounded by Mr. Hillier will be of interest to all who are interested In any way in the Players' League. I think, however, that 1 have dealt with tbe matter before, but not in such a plain way as Mr. Hililer puts it. The question is certainly of great importance when looked at from Mr. miller's standpoint, but I fail to see any strong reason for anticipating the fraud referred to. I have found many faults with the methods ot organisation in the Players' League, but I cannot withhold that confidence In the members now that I reposed in them when they were in the National League. If we reduce the matter to one of personal interest a baseball player Is under temptation In every game in which he takes part. If they bare not yielded to tempta tions in tbe past year, ana I don't think they have, I see no reason for suspicion now. Why the very question at issue has been tested du- Pittsburg and Chicago clubs at St. Louis, We all know that it would bave been to the interest of both the Chicago and Pitts burg clubs if the latter bad beaten the former simply because the two teams were booked to open tne season yesterday on PittsMirg's grounds. This circumstance would certainly prompt all concerned to think that the financial results at Pittsburg would be better if the club of that city was victorious. Self-interest snrely bad reason to operate among the players of the two teams at St. Louis, but it did not, and the games were only of an exhibition kind. But in my way of thinking there is a power of self-interest operating among players in a direction contrary to the one suggested by Mr. Hillier. Good ballplayinz is at a premium and self-interest will prompt each player to do his best on all occasions to as to get his standard as high as possible. I see no reason to think otberthan that there will be just as much inducement to be a cood player in the new League as in the old. Clubs that cannot hold their own in the new League will either bave to be strengthened or make room for somebody else, jnst as has been the case in the past. Business will, un doubtedly, be the motto of the new League jnst as It is of tho old League. Tbe players in both are playing lor salaries ana capitalists are in resting for profits. Let me say before leaving this subject that Mr. Hillier' communication is a very opportune one and his questions ex ceedingly interesting. Corbetl's Latest Feat. The pugilistic event of the week, or more correctly speaking, the boxing event, has been the short and harmless encountnr between Dominick McCaffrey and James J. Corbett. As a result of that "go" Corbott has jumped Into more fame in a day than many of tbe brave old champions of the ring did in a generation. Like Lord Byron, excuse the comparison, Mr. Corbett went to bed and woke up in the morn ing to find himself famous. Two brief en counters with large gloves haveput considerable money in Mr. Corbctt's pocket and given him fame enough to make a nice little fortune, it a shrewd manatrer had him in charge. Think of that, ye menof former days, who fought on the turf until yon were carried away; think of that, all yo heroes of the prize ring, who, after a score of great victories, had scarcely as much wealth as would buy a good silk hat. Surely Corbett is a prodigy in more ways than one. Now I don't intend to say one word against the fighting abilities of Corbett. I could not fairly do so, because he has not been tested as a fighter yet. He may be a fighter and he may not, but he has nroveu that he it a very auick and smart boxer. As I have often pointed out, however, a boxer is one thing and a fighter is another. Many of our modern boxers wonld probably bave easily played polka time on tbe faces of such men as Bayers and Heenan with gloves on a stage, but in a 24-foot ring matters would have been vastly different. Well, Corbett, doubtless, can touch an opponent as often with bis glove as any body else, and bis encounter with McCaffrey only strengthens the opinion that I expressed regarding htm when he met Kilrain, viz., that his style is more of tho professor than i fighter. Let us examine this latest feat of Orbett briefly. Corbett bad a benefit, he wanted somebody with something ot a name to box four rounds with him. McCaffrey was solicited to fill the bill, but he was in no condition whatever as everybody knows. A friendly bout was guaranteed and McCaffrey, who needs money at present as much as anvbody, consented to have a "go." Corbett was in tip top condition; full of ambition, and In the first round winded McCaffrey. Is any body surprised at that? Why, little Cal Mc Carthy could bave done that under the circum stances. What surprises me is that Corbett didn't knack McCaffrey off the stage. I know that "out of condition" is the plea of many fairly defeated men, but we all must know that at tbe present time McCaffrey is as much out of condition as a corpulent brewer is unfit to run a six-day foot race, and that fact would tell more against him on a boxing stage than in a 24-foot nns during three or four rounds. I am making no apology for McCaffrey. I have EDNESDAY morning is the beginning of our Seventeenth Year as Retail Dealers and Promoters of Popular Low Prices in the good- city of Pittsburg. We have endeavored to fill a place in the community honorably and faithfully. Your appreciation of our efforts has been attested by tne very liberal patronage given' us, and which has enabled us to build up our enormous trade.

JlfifPiiiik never deemed him a fighter, but I still claim that when in condition he is a very good boxer. w Some Folic Impressions. The fact that Corbett had all his own way in his set-to with McCaffrey has led very many people to believe that the professor of the Far West is the equal of almost anybody in the ring. Well now, if we look at tbe matter closely, we'll find that logic and facts lead us entirely In another direction. If Corbett is so much superior of Kilrain and McCaffrey as the former's misleading glove contests bave caased many people to think John L. Sullivan has no business with Corbett. This is the conclusion that all those ultra admirers of Corbett must logically come to. Sullivan couldn't settle Mc Caffrey in nearly seven rounds; and it required moro than 70 rounds for tbe champion to down Kilrain. If Corbett's encounter with Kilrain and McCaffrey were sound and correct then we must all admit that the young man from the West is the most wonderful man the fistic world has seen this century. But I decline to believe ttrey were correct as far as fighting Is concerned, and, therefore, I am not forced to the conclusion just pointed out. But there are two or three things ahout Corbett's actions that I would like to understand. He is seeking after dory as a pngilist, and yet he has so far declined to meet any promi nent man in a battle to a finish. Kilrain made him a very tempting offer at New Orleans, but Corbett had tognhome toseebis father. When arrived in Sin Francisco Corbett was imme diately challenged by Joe McAuliffe to a finish fight or one of ten rounds. Corbett has busi ness in New York and left bis home and friends in San Francisco. Shortly after Corbett's de parture for tbe Just Joe McAuliffe also left lor the same destination, and now Corbett has, re turned to Ban Francisco. These facts are exceed ingly interesting when connected with a young man whose ambition is to be famous as a pugi list. If Corbett cannot defeat Joe McAuliffe he is no uso at all as a pucilist, whatever he may be as a boxing instructor. However, time will tell more about Corbett. I am anxious to see him tested, and when that takes place and if he comes out all right nobody will more heartilv give him credit for bis ability than I will. One word more. If Corbett is to be praised for his besting of McCaffrey what credit is to be given Pat Farrell who knocked McCaffrey downT About tho Champions. There Is still a great uncertainty about a con test or battle between Jackson and Sullivan, although the latest advices fromJJan Francisco are little more favorable than tbey have been. The California Athletic Club Directors, so we are given to understand, have about decided to offer a $20,000 purse for a fight between the two big men. This is Sullivan's price for a fight, and so far be has stuck to his demand. To morrow night, I think, is the time when the di rectors of the clab will determine whether or not the 520,000 will be offered. If they decide to offer that amount then we may rest assured that the white and colored champions will meet, but when they will meet is another ques tion. Certainly Sullivan will not be in any condition to fight for a long time, even though tbe reports about his increasing corpulency are not true. We may rest: as sured that bis backers will not allow him to face Jackson except in tbe very best of conuiliun, nnu u lie ja m kuuu xuiui ucfJeuu upon it that matters will not be very comfort able for Jackson. Efforts, and apparently earnest efforts, are being made by the Califor nia Athletic Club to get Jem Carney and Jack McAuliffe together. A battle between these two champions would be very interesting, almost as much so as a battle between Sullivan and Jackson. But it docs not seem that these efforts will be successful. McAuliffe has already stated that he will not be ready to fight again until next year. That may be too late for Carney. The latter is already a veteran, and another year added to the 40 or so that be now carries may make bis burdeu too much with which to face a yountr man. There is another offer to Jack McAullif e, viz., one from 1873.: F A PR 1 1 WEDNESDAY, JUBILEE BARGAIN NO. 3.

Tbat club offers a purse of $3,000 for a battle between Jack McAuliffe and Billy Myers. There was a time, and not very long ago, when a $3,000 purse would have been an irresistible magnet for the best pugilists in the world; bnt now it is very questionable whether or not Mr. McAuliffe can afford tho time to stop off and even ask about a purse of that kind. Howev er, I am Inclined to think that McAuliffe and Myers would scarcely give the club S3.000 worth of satisfaction if they were to meet. The same club offers 81,000 for a fight between Jitrmy Connors and Warren. or Connors and f ke Weir or Connors and Billy Murphy. This offer is interesting, because It means that the au thorities of the club deem Connors in the same class as the best feather-weights of the present feneration. Their judgment may be right, but donbt it. Of course Connors lately defeated Danfortb, but many little men have done that.v J. am, nowever, somewnat surprised at any ciud holding out any inducements to a man of War ren's standing. If ever tho lines were drawn against any pnblic boxer or pugilist they ought to be drawn in the case of Warren. His record in San Francisco ought certainly influence direc tors of all athletic clubs to make an example of bim. What he did there may be done at other places. It would seem much better if, instead of Warren, tbe offer bad been made to Joe Ridge, of Braddock. I am not prepared to say what kind of stand Ridge would make against Connors, but I feel confident that Ridge would be as good as and moro reliable than Warren. I am also Inclined to think that Ridge's backers wnuld.be disposed to accept tbe offer. Ridge has made many attempts to meet some of the leading little men and always failed, except in the case of Patsy O'Leary. The Braddock representative in that instance bested O'Leary, and that ought to warrant his ability. O'Connor nnd Stansbnry. Finally a match has been made between Will lam O'Connor, tbe Canadian, and Stansbury, tbe Australian, to row for tho world's cham pionship. Tbe race is to take place next June 23. Tho date is a reasonable one, and I don't think that any fair-minded man will object to the claim of the scullers to row for the highest sculling honors. O'Connor was the last man to row tbe lte champion, Searle, and Stans bury not only gave blm his hardest race, but had a challenge issued to row him at the time of his (Searle's) death. It is too soon yet to deal with tbe probable result of the race, ex cept to say that tbe winner will either have Kemp or Mcliean to row. I don't think that Kemp is in the same class as Stansbnry and O'Connor, but if he defeats McLean he will have to be tackled by either of tbe two just named. If McLean is the young wonder he is given out to be he will not only defeat Peter Kemp but will be a very dangerous rival to the other two leading scullers. Piunqle. CHARLIE FOLEY'S LETTER. He Give Rome Interesting; Baseball Gossip From Boston The Brotherhood Clab In Good Lack Tbo National Lensae Team All Rlfilit. Boston, April 18. The League team of this city has been galavanting around in the Sunny South, but it made tbe boys very weary after being trounced three out of four by Biliie Barnie's very slick aggregation of ball players. "Dimples" Tate, formerly of Boston, umpired one of the games, and he proved himself a thorough Virginia gentleman. Tate, like all true Southern gentlemen, believes in giving bis own team a shade the best of it, and he rubbed it into our cultured Leaguers without turning a hair. Long, the Kansas City wonder, lost tbe last game by making three costly errors. The Dutch shoemaker from Chicago will never set this town afire with his short stopping, unless he improves in his work. He covers lots of ground, but, like Sam Wise of old. he tries to do too much.

Clarkson was batted very hard in the last Baltimore game, and the Baltimore victory would have been more complete if Barnie's men had been more careful lu running bases. Lowe, the young man from New Castle, is playing ball like a four-time winner and leads the team in bat ting. NOT A GOOD TEST. The batting during tho preliminary season doesn't amount to much: tbe real test will come when young Lowe is stacked up against the strone pitchers of the League. He bids fair to do well, however, and there is" no doubt but what he will be a fixture on the regular team. Martin Sullivan has signed a castlron League contract, and. as be is away from his old com rades, I think be will dowelL Bennett is tak ing no chances with his arm, and if the weather is not favorable, he will do very littlo catching before May. Hardie and Nichols have shown nn well in one came at Wilralnirton. Del. The Wilmington club is very weak, so that one contest is no guide to go by. Hardie is rather slow bebiud the bat, but Clarkson, who saw him at his best in California, says he is a good man and a fine batter. Hardie led the California League in batting last season. The Boston League Club must be strengthened up at third base for Charlie Ganzel is not showing up well; they must also bat much better if they expect to win a good position in tbe race. The Brooklvns, who were an easy marker for Anson's gang of frivolous colts in the South, arc now playing better ball than any team in tbo League. It was rather laughable to hear Jim Mutrie blow about his "world beaters," only to he taken into camp by the Rochesters two games in succession. The Brooklyn Lcanuers dressed tbe Rochesters in great shape 13 to I. It was rather a surprise to near tnat Syracuse cad trampiea on iieclt er's men, but there is nothing very astonishing about the feat, as Toledo anil Columbus easily walked away with tho strong Cincinnati team. I notice that the Pittsburg ladies are gushing over "Ducky" Hemp, and from all asconnts, he's a smart little bit of a man." If "Ducky" Is going to play right field in this city be bad better bring bis goggles along, for the sun bothers a man awfully. THE BOSTON BEOTHEEHOOD. The Boston Brotherhood team Is in luck. They made a pile of money on Fast Day and since then they have done well In Providence, Fitchburg, Lowell and other cities. With good weather the club will have earned SSO.OOOor more by tbe first of May. The boys are having some bard luck, however. On Tuesday at Lowell Joe Qulnn bad his nose broken wniie practicing before tbe game. Morgan Murphy had been throwing to Quinn on second, when the latter stooped to pick up a ball; then, after picking up the ball, Quinn wheeled around, only to receivo tho ball full in the nose. Young Murphy was deeply affected, but he was in no way to blame for the sad accident. Quinn's physician says be will not bd able to play for two weeks. Gumbert bas not been feeling well, but he is now rounding about all right and expects to be in the best of condition hereafter. Kilroy, Stovey and others have suffered from stiff joints, while Dick Johnston sprained an ankle in a recent game. The Brotherhood Park is beginning to look better every day, and if the weather is cood during the rest of the month the ground will be like a billiard table by tbe 1st of May. Just before Fast Day there was a little consternation in tbe Brotherhood camp when it was reported that Dick Johnston was about to sign a contract with the Triumvirs. Dick had been around enjoying himself, and he acknowledges that 'he was approached by an agent of the League team, but he doesn't say how near he came to signing or the induce ments that were held out to him. Ganzel was accused of apprcachlng Johnston, bnt the modest Ganzel says he is not guilty and every body believes his statement. Even King Kelly who is trying his best to get in body blows' on tne League people, is fair enouch to sav tbat Ganzel is an innocent man. The Boston Broth erhood team will make the fur fly when they strike a batting streak, but I think Rad- 23, JUBILEE BARGAIN NO. 2.
