Brooklyn (P.L.).. 3 The movement in favor of establishing 25 cent ball in this city is becoming exceeding ly interesting. The opinions of the officials of the local National League club are very conflicting on the matter but the majority favor a reduction of price. Director J. P. OVXeil is about the only local official who is definitely opposed to a change and in sup port of his news lie has some Terr interesting suggestions and opinions to offer. During a conversation with the writer yesterday he saiJ: "I pay the greatest deference to the opinions of President Nimick and others on this mat ter, .but I am inclined to think that we can do better than reducing our price. THE MAJORITY WILL KCLE. "Of course I will at all times take off my hat to the majority and if I am outvoted why I will turn in and do all I can to help the policy of the majority. But here is what I would do. If we can not pnt up a SO cent came we mnst make it worth that amount. That's all there is in it. My policy is to commence at once and Improve the grounds and se cure better means of transportation to and from the cronnds. We should put an entrance gate at the center field corner, and that would be convenient for the railroad and cable cars. We should cushion the 'bleachers' and pnt a cover above them, and also put 1,008 opera chairs into the grand stand, making a ladies' section. Along with all this I wonld have musical concerts connected with the games and also athletic entertainments. We could have, for instance, bicycle contests between the best riders in the country a short time be fore the game. These features wonld certainly be attractive, and most assuredly would make the game worth more than SO cents. MUST HATE GOOD MEN1. "Again, if we haren't a 50-cent team we mnst get one. We cannot estimate onr team yet, but I am confident that our players will win more games this year than onr last year's club did. They cannot do any worse than did our ex pensive stars. The fact is, however, that when a young team loses a game the general opinion seems to be that it is because they cannot do any betier. There is no allowance made for tbem; but when an aggregation of expensive men, such as we bad last year, loses about IS straight games all kinds of ex cuses are made for them. Why. the team that left us has been continually battling for sixth or seventh place. If that was worth 50 cents, most certainly onr present team shouldn't be estimated at any lower figure. Our clnb has made more money at 50 cents than it did at 25 cents, but unfortunately we paid all that we made away to players, who, in some instances, turned out to be worthless, and in other in stances treated us dishonestly after getting our money." President Nimick, along with Secretary Ecandrett and Director Brown, is a staunch supporter of the 25-cent policy. The President said yesterday: "I would like to have the price reduced. We have already mentioned the mat ter to the National Leagne. and I think we will mention it again We cannot change our price except by the unanimous consent of the Na tional League. I cannot say how the League will deal with it, but I believe tbat it would be a benefit to onr club to have the price re duced." TVHAT MANAGER 10FTUS SATS. Manager Loftus, of the Cincinnati team, ex pressed bis, opinion on the matter to the effect that to reduce the price would not be a wise policy. He did not know what the National League would do in the matter. There is, undoubtedly, a strong public feeling in Pittsburg in favor a I5-cent ball. Some of the best patrons of the game are convinced tbat a reduction of price would not be a wise policy, but that it ought to be done in fairness to the workinc pnblic of the city. President "imlck was also asked his opinion regarding any chance of having Me schedules chanced to avoid as many conflicting dates as possible He said: "The Players' Leagne offi cials are entirely responsible for the connection of dates. We made up onr schedule to suit ourselves, and they changed theirs to our dates. Why. we had an open date to-day, and what did the local Players' Leagne club aoT Why, without any justifiable reason or cause, they coaxed the Chicagos to stay here and play, so as to conflict with us. Is tbat helping the dignity or prestige of the game? WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? "They have said that their object wasn't to rnin or drive anybody out of the business who had money in it. but their actions show that tbey will do anything to rnin those who have spent thusands of dollars in building up the game. They are responsible for the conflicting dates and not us. One thing I already ob-erve, viz: that this conflict is injuring the prestige of the game in Pittsburg. The two audiences at the two games do not make an averaee crowd by far, and that means that many people are becoming disgusted with the way matters are being conducted." On this point Manager Loftus said: "This conflict is killing almost all local pride in the came at cities where there are two teams. Public sentiment is divided and in the contro versy one side is trvinc to rnin the other. This tends to kill all pride in the local teams and sours the minds of the libera! supporters of the came. Where there is a contest things nerer go smooth and then hnndreds of people wah their hands of the whole business. It is a great blow to the came and this conflicting of nates is the chief source of all trouble" Boaton, 7 Brooklyn, 3. Boston, April II. Murphy pitched a great game to-day on the Brotherhood grounds, and held tne Bostons down for seven lnnlnrs. In the eighth Boston batted lilm for four singles, and aided by damaging errors by liaker and Murnhy rolled up five runs. Boston played a great field ing same, and did not have a fielding error up to the last lnnlur. Kadbourn pitched great ball. Attendance, 1.548. bcore: BOSTON. E B P 11 I BBOOKLTN.

The new Giants, of the National League, lost to-day's game through rank Injustice on the part of Umpire McDcrmott. He roasted them from the start to the seventh Inning, and then when Captain Glasscock's patience could not longer stand the strain, he whipped out his watch, counted off GO seconds and iben called the game, which will go record as won by Boston 9 to 0. There has seldom been as much excitement as In the seventh Inning to-day. In Justice to the Boston players and patrons. It should be stated that tbey don't like to win games In this way. They do not uphold Captain Glasscock in his persistent kicking after being told to "play ball," but there is lots of sympathy for him In Boston to-meht. This Is what led to the dispute. Umpire McDcr mott had been singularly unfortunate in his de cisions on calling bails and strikes, and Welch was the greater sufferer. He kicked several times without affectlngthe umpire's Judgment. Mickey himself was the only one disturbed and It was no ticed that his smile had been supplanted by frowns. That meant that Mickey was mad. The seventh Inning began with the score 2 to 1 In favor of New Tort It had been a very exciting eon test and the nerves of the players as well as the spectators were highly strung. When the seventh inning was opened the New York plavers could not stand Umpire McDer mott's decisions any longer. Welch pitched a good ball and the umpire called strike.' Welch was In a combative mood and sarcastically asked If he was sure It was a strike. That'll cost you S3." replied McDermott. "Is that so," sneered Mickey, "I'd just as Uef lose another So." "five more." retorted the umpire. Captain Glasscock then took part inthe discussion. Mc Iiermott pulled out his watch, after ordering Glasscock to ulay ball: the latter thought he had five minutes' grace. But at the expiration of half a minute he beckoned to bharott to take Welch's place In the box. At the expiration of another halt minute, closed his watch wlih a snap and gave the game to Boston. The New Yorks will contest the game. Attendance 2,300. Score: B06TOX.

MrwYORK, April 21. Kaln prevented the New York-Philadelphia Players' League game at Brotherhood Park this afternoon. The Giants left for Boston at II o'clock to-night, and the Phillies open Eastern Park, Brooklyn, with Ward's team to-morrow, llaln spoiled the Na tional League club's opening at Washington Park this afternoon. The weather was a disaopolnt ment to the friends 01 the Bridegrooms, who were to have played Harry Wright's Phlladelphlans. Too Much Rnin. Bain prevented both the local games yesterday. Manager Uanlon expected a large crowd at Expo sition Park If the weather had been line, and the National League officials were just as confident of a large crowd to greet the Cincinnati Keds after tnclr long absence from the city. If the weather Is fine this morning, the grounds of each club will be in good condition. Ball Games To-Dny.

The Chicago Ufannger Well Pleased With IIU Tlsit to Pittsburg. Captain Comlskey, of the Chicago Players' League team, was In excellent spirits when found at the Anderson yesterday: 'Just got a telegram from Secretary BrunelL" he remarked, 'saying that the proposed game to-day was contrary to no rule. However, I'm not very sorry It rained. We have played to over 12,000 people here and I suppose that is enough. Williamson, the regular short stop of our team, will be able to resume his place In Buffalo. You will remember that be went around the world with Spalding's players. While they were play ing In Paris. In making a run to second, he fell, his knee striking upon some loose stones which injuredhlm quite seriously. His doctor says that he has sufficiently recovered to resume work. Bran, the regular right fielder, who as left sick In Chicago, will ai.H be able to join us lu Buffalo. By the time the team reaches home again It will have Its full playing strength." Manager Comlsker, In speaking of the money received from the four games, said: "I don't know how President Nlralck or Director O'Nell feel about their share, but the dollars have been coming fast enoagh forme." ABOUT THAT BALK. Galvln Says a Few Words About Umpire Gunning's Decision. Jimmy Gslvln's mind was still more than ruf fled yesterday about Umpire Gunning calling a balk on him Wednesday. Said Jimmy last evening: Gunning told me tht he had orders from headquarters to call a balk on me. My movement has net er been called a balk t)r any umpire except such broken-down ball players as Jim Clinton, Phil Powers and Tom Gunning. The leading um pires don't consider It a balk. Every pitcher Is trying to Imitate me and cannot, and therefore they all want It called a bilk. Why 1 told young Dwycr this evening to 6lt on the bench and watch me and he would learn something to help him In his business. They must all be f-pottlngme, but you can bet that dalvin will continue his trick and they can call it a balk eery time. These young ducks know It all, or course, but they'll learn where they are wrong." Doesn't Lack Discipline. Jo Murphy, of the Chicago 7ri6une, who accom panied Comlskey's aggregation to this city, has unlimited confidence lu the flayers' League': "It was predicted," he said, "that the Players' League would lack discipline. Well, so far as Chicago's team Is concerned nothing could be more perfect than the discipline and harmony that prevails." Mr. Murphy was very much amused at the situation in St. Louts, where he cas Al Spink and George Munson have formed a combination, leased a ball park and are paralyz ing Von derAhe's Sunday patronage with exhi bition games and athletic shows. Mr. Murphy thinks It probable that St. Louis will bave a Play ers' League team next year if not this season. To-Dim'm Ilnm Gnmes. If the weather permits the Cincinnati Keds will play against the local National League team to day at Itecrcatlon Park. Foreman and h,eenan will be the Cincinnati battery. Manager Hecker hadn't made up his mind last eveulug as to what battery be will try. At Exposition Park the Cleveland P. L. team will tackle the home aggregation. Al Johnson's lot have had a discouraging time of It at Buffalo and they mav do better bere. Staley and Carroll will be the home battery, and either Gruber or Bakcly will pitch for Cleveland. Plrnsed With the Opening Games. Manager Hanlon Is well pleased with the four games played at Exposition Park since the open ing of the championship season. He thinks his club will come out all right financially at the end or the season and questions very much whether or not the local National League club will hold out to the end of the season.

Presi dent lew resigned, and James Llndsey, of Brad ford, was elected to fill the vacancy. Perry Mc Cully, manager of the Erie clnb: Dr. Sage, of Ulean. and Mr. Hnlbert, of Dunkirk, were elected a board of auditors. Baseball Notes. THE Cleveland P.

Kain prevented the Association games at Louis ville and Philadelphia yesterday. Gexiai. Jack Cwafman is so far doing well with the Louisville team. Jack has many well wishers. Manaoeb Hanlon remarked lit evening that Glasscock and Denny are Invariably In a tall-end team. Pbesident Nimick intimated yesterday that several or the "colts" will be dispensed with shortly. The officials of the Cincinnati club give rain checks lr fire Innings are not played. This Is a fair arrangement. Manager Ewtitg, or the New York P. L. Club, will llkelv sign James Galllgan, who plaved left field for the Louisville club last year. The Chicago team left ror Bnfialo last evening on the 8:30 train. Deacon White's sluggers will not slug so much against Comlskey's pirates. TTIE Trl-State League championship season opens next Wednesday. Frank Torrevson says McKecsport has a good team ror Its first season in the League. In releasing the extra colt from tne local N. L. team there will be some difficulty In determining who to keep between Koutcllfle and Kclty. They are both good player. Manager MrrrniE has signed Tommv Ester brook, better known as the Dude." to play first base. He will play his first game In Boston. Scanlon was not strong enough at the bat. The local National League club and the Cincin nati team may play two games to-morrow after noon for one price of admission. Director O'Nell wants to have yesterday's postponed game played. TOM Tucker, of the Bostons, and Mickey Welch, of the New Yorks. are the competitors for a K00 diamond pin to be awarded to the ball player re ceiving the most votes at the fair of the Church of the Kosarv. In Holvoke, now going on. YOUNG umpires ought to be guided bv the judg ment or such authorities as Lvneh. Gaffnernnrf John Kelly as to whether or not Galvln's method of throwing to first Is a balk. Surely the three authorities named know a little more about It than umpires in their experimenting period. Hebe Is the way false statements get circulated. Some local enthusiastic newspaper correspondent informed a certain Philadelphia paper that2.G00 peoDle attended the P. L. game at Exposition Park Wednesday. The turnstile count was 474. Truth will do the club more good than lies. There is no one so loud In praise of the Phila delphia N. L. Club's team sb Manager Mntrle. He said, after the game Wednesday: "If any body thinks Harry Wright hasu't a clever team, let him present a set of men that can beat them." Jim flrmlv believes, however, that he will beat the Phlladelphlasoutln the end. The Plavers' League has selected the following hotels In the different cities as headquarters dur ing their trips: Boston, United States Hotel; Philadelphia, Continental Hotel: Chicago, Tre mont House: Cleveland. Hollenden House: Buf falo. Tift or Genessee House; Pittsburg, Ander son Hotel; Brooklyn, Plerrepont House. IT behooves Mr. Byrnes, or the Brooklyns, to stop such disgraceful scenes as that enacted at Boston. As president of the club one word from him will have more Influence with the men than all the fines Inflicted. Captain O'Brien would do well to read Mr. Young's recent circular and fol low Its advice. It Is plain and wise, and lfcar rled out. will go far to prevent disputes on the diamond. I'Mladtlphia Prist. The Sprinters Agnln. MASSILOV, O.. April 24. A "skin" footrase, dtstance 100 yards, was run here this evening between Hough, the noted Cleveland sprinter, and Tom Williams, a coal miner, for a purse of .TOO. Williams won In 91i seconds. Local sportl were dupes to a large amount, the game being worked as follows: Hough showed the victims 10 seconls In an exhibition race against time, and as Williams' record Is not better than 11 seconds, ther backed the stranger. But they probably don't yet know that the distance run In the race was little more than 80 yards, the measurement beinu manipulated by the smart ones who man aged the details. Linden Races, .

THE PURCHASE POLICI OPPOSED. lie Regards the Bill as Being Utterly Devoid of Principle. ME. GOSCHEN'S TBKT WEAK DEFENSE. He Claims tbe Members Let Political Opinions Warp Their Judgment. Mr. Gladstone, In the House of Commons last night, attacked Balfour's land purchase bill. "With all his old-time vigor he de nounced Balfour's bill as criminal and Par cell's as impracticable. Mr. Goschen thought the opposition was not on account of the poverty of the tenant, but the nation ality of the creditor, and defended the meas ure. London, April 24. Mr. Gladstone re sumed the debate on the land purchase bill in the House of Commons this evening. He said he was opposed to the bill under an overwhelming conviction that it was com plicated, without undertaking to solve the difficulty. He had been encouraged to hope for a solution bv Lord Salisbury's declaring tbat the measure would not impose a burden upon the British taxpayer. He was disap pointed, however, when Mr. Balfour in formed the House tbat the measure pledged the country to the extent of 33,000,000 without preventing the possibility of further amounts being asked. Regarding Mr. Par nell's plan, it was new in principle. Its general purpose was clear, but he was not certain that he comprehended the details. Conservative laughter. BALFOUK'S BILL DISSECTED. It was honorable, even chivalrous, in Mr. Parnell opposing the Government as he did, to deem it proper to propose an alternative. He strongly sympathized with one object of Mr. Parnell's plan, whereby the landlords would not be expatriated, but would be re tained. It would be a sorrowful conclusion of the life of the landlord class if when local gov ernment was established In Ireland, they did not take part In adjusting affairs. Mr. Ballour's bill presented a number of du bious points wnicn made it uimcuit to titscern fully the character of the measure. Borne of the proposals were so obviously objectionable as to justify tbeir rejection. A hill of this kind ought to be confined to landlords already in possession, it should not encourage landlords to become buyers of land in order to take ad vantage of tbeenormons boons offered. "Hear, hear." The provision respecting two years' arrears also required a justification which it would be difficult to find. Cheers. STILL MOKE OBJECTION. Another objection cutting near the root of the bill was the method proposed for ascer taining the rent of the land. It was so bad that it would enable tbe landlord to obtain compensation upon a large mass of income that he had never received. Hear, hear. There was to be no change of management, the rent expenses of eviction nor for bad debts, with other charges, necessarily falling upon the landlords. The effect of this was that tbey might be giving, instead of 17 years pnrchase, 20 or 25 years. He also took tne strongest ob jection to placing an embargo upon the local funds of the connties. Hear, hear. Tbat proposal vitiated a principle which the Honse ought to hold sacred. Then there was nothing in tbe bill to prevent tbe occupier who be comes the owner from sub-letting. Mr. Madden, the Irish Attorney General, ex plained that a tenant could not sub-let without permission from the Lbnd Commission. A BILL TyiTHOUT PEINCIPLE. Mr. Gladstone, continuing, asked on what principle the Land Court would act in giving permission. There mnst be a clear understand ing on this point There was no principle indi cated in the bill, Tho only really available and valuable guarantees provided in the measure were grants from the Imperial exchequer on account of probable duties and other public charges. The Government has already riven England and Scotland grants, placing them wholly at tbe disposal of the local authorities. Was it possible the Government would tell the counties of Ireland tbat the grant to that coun try must be used for the benefit of persons con tracting under the bill? Cheers. It was a violation of equality in governing the three kingdoms, than which he never knew a more glaring instance. Cheers. THE CONSTITUTIONAL OBJECTION'S. doming to what ho called constitutional ob jections, one of which formed absolute reason against the second reading of tbe measure, he urged it was obvious tbat Ireland opposed the measure, in view of the fact that five-sixths of the Irish members deliberately and determined ly opposed it. Cheers. 1 As the Government was going to make Ireland its debtor, it was important to consider what was tbe attitude of tbe persons about to be subjected to debt. If they declined to recognize the obligation it was a now wrong inflicted. If Ireland's representa tives declined to recognize tbe binding charac ter of the obligation, protesting tbat tbe coun try did not get value for its money, was it prudent to force the measure upon the poople ? Was it possible to imagine the Government imposing a similar mcasnre npon Scotland in deflauce of tbe protest of 60 out of the 70 Scotch members? Cheers. He objected also to the use of British credit. He did not entertain an extreme view about tho use of British credit, but he thought tbat the Government was precluded from large applica tions of that credit for tbe purchase of land. The last general election settled tbe question. If the Conservatives were then pledged against the use of the pnblic credit, so was the Oppo sition. This Parliament certainly conld not, in conformity with its honorable obligations, pass a bill instituting a local fund having an inter minable operation. Cheers. A HOSE FORMIDABLE OBJECTION. Another objection was more formidable still. This related to State landlordism. Besides the large pecuniary risk, the bill involved evils threefold greater, threatening to produce con ditions which would shock humanity, imperil order and make worse the relations between the two countries. State landlordism implied tho use of soldiers against the tenants: the use of every weapon of the State to enforce an unpop ular law. Lastly, it was a sad disappointment to find under the name of a voluntary arrangement between landlord and tenant a device for bring ing an irresistible pressure upon tbe tenant with a view of extorting for the landlords' ben efit nearly the whole of the immense boon that Parliament mitrht confer. These objections covered only a part of the bill. He was not sure that he had as yet obtained a full comDrehen. sion of the measure. He had seen many com plicated measures, bnt he had probably never seen one so complicated as tbe Dill under dis cussion. It contained every form of ambiguity. This might have been successfully encoun tered and the ambiguities got rid of, but the objections, as stated, were lataL A VIGOROUS PBOTEST. In conclusion he said: "I feel it to be my ab solute duty to protest against principles of so flagrant a character and so tending to embar rass thecouotryin immense pecuniary risks, while making land purchase not an aim in the settlement of tbe general Irish problem, but a moans to fnrtber pluuge us Into the deepest po litical embarrassment," Cheers. I Mr. Goschen said that Mr. Gladstone's con tention that tbe tenants would bo deprived of the benefits intended for them destroyed Mr. Morlej's argument that non-purchasing ten ants would agitate to get tbeir rents lowered to the same scale as the purchasers' rents. He agreed with both Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Par nell in desiring to retain the landlords in Ire land, but the bill did not necessarily lead to expropriation. In regard to obtaining tbe con sent of lrisb members, it would be seen, if the bill passed, with whom the tenants were more satisfied the Unionists, who supported the nil), 'or the Parnellites, who opposed it. Cheers. If Scotch tenants were offered a re duction oX20 per cent in rents, he believed they would not lose it because tbeir members ob jected. Neither would tbe Irish tenants. No portion of the burden was ever likely to fall upon tbe British taxpayer. Therefore the Unionists would not violate their pledges. He admitted tbat it was not desirable for the State to become tbe creditors of the tenants, bnt he asked if the object could be attained otherwise. A DIFFERENT METHOD. Mr. Gladstone Yes. Mr. Goschen said it onght to he remembered that tbe main authority Mr. Gladstone pro posed as creditor was tbe State authority. Mr. Gladstone Tbe Irish authority. Mr. Goschen thought the same objection would apply. Cries of "No, no." Then the Irish Parliament might evict, but the English wonld not. It becomes a question not of the poverty of -tho tenant, hut of the nationality of the creditor. The objection tbat the landlords would be able to exact their own terms came with bad grace from Mr. Gladstone, whose own measure was compulsory on the tenants. Mr. Parnell's alternative failed to abolish dual ownership, but it was not necessarily futile, and mlent, therefore, be considered in Com mittee. He appealed to tbe Honse not to allow political opinion to warp tbeir judgment on the bill. OHIO LEGISLATION.

This has been another bad day for ripper legislation, al though the lobby was pressing and so in terfered with business that they had to be put out of the house. The bills to reorganize Cleveland and Toledo were aeain brought up in the House and defeated after a great amonnt of discus sion. Three; Democrats, who claim there has been enough of this kind of work, refused to vote fortbe measures. House bill .became a law requiring tbat boards of elections shall be appointed by the Mayors of cities instead of bv the Governor, as at present. The registration bill also be came a law, which reqnires registration only once in four years, except in tbe four largest cities of the State, which remain as at present. Tbe Australian election bill was postponed to next winter. Senate bill to reorganize the present railroad commissioner, Mr. Capeller, out of office, and providing for a commission of three to take his place, was amended in the Honse so as to simply reor ganize and continue with one commissioner, but the Senate refused to agree to the amendment, as they have candi dates who want the other place, A com mittee of conference was appointed, and as the Senate will not agree to one commis sioner it is thought no definite action can bn taken. The bill, however, will come op again In the Senate to-morrow, A joint committee is to be appointed to investigate tbe listing of the property for taxation and report at the next session. The Geyer scboolbook bill which has claimed a great deal of attention passed the Senate and will remain a law unless recon sidered. The Legislature is making an effort to get through by Monday.

A Very Tarns Battle. ' New York, April H. A party or about 50 New York sporting men 'left this city last night, and Journeyed to Woodbrldge, N.

The contestants were Frank White, the well-known pugilist of this city, and fete Daley, orst. Johns; N. B. The fight was scarcely worth the loss of a night's sleep. It lasted 12 rounds, and the New Brunswick boy was not In it at any stage of the game. Catarrh IS a blood disease. Until tne poison la expelled from the system, there can be no cure for this loathsome and dangerous malady. Therefore, the only effective treatment Is a thorough coursa of Averts Sarsaparllla the best of all blood purifiers. The sooner you begin the better ; delay Is dangerous. "I was troubled with catarrh for over two years. I tried various remedies, and was treated by a number of physi cians, but received no benefit until I began to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla. A few bottles of this medicine cured me of tnis troublesome complaint and com pletely restored my health." Jesse M. Boggs, Eolman's Mills, N. C. ""When Ayer's Sarsaparilla was rec ommended to me for catarrh, I was in clined to doubt Its efficacy. Having tried so many remedies, with little ben efit, I had no faith that anything would cure me. I became emaciated from loss of appetite and impaired digestion. I bad nearly lost the sense of smell, and my system was badly deranged. I wa3 abont discouraged, when a'friend urged me to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and re ferred me to persons whom it had cured of catarrh. After taking half a dozen bcttles of this medicine, I am convinced that the only sure way of treating this obstinate disease is through the blood." Charles H. Maloney, 113 Eiver st, Lowell, Mass.
