ISPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TBI DISPATCH. I
Chicago. May 7. Such baseball as lires
in the memory of spectators was played at
tbe Brotherhood Park to-day. It lasted
only a few minutes, but during that brief
time conceded defeat for
the borne team became
glorious victory, and a
pyrotechnic succession of
base hits was fired for the
noisy approval of a well
pleased, bowling crowd.
It occurred during tbe
Chicago's half of the final
inning in the third game
with the Pittsburgs. The
Chicagos had rushed the
game from the beginning,
obtaining a lead of three
points in the second. In
the next the visitors crept
to within a single rnn of
their opponents. Mark Baldwin, for the
"White Stockings, let down as the red-stocking
batsmen peppered his curves, and gain
ing this advantage, the athletes from Pitts
burg drew away toward victoiy.
LOOKED LIKE WINNERS.
At the end of the fifth inning they were
one run ahead and when the Chicagos
opened the ninth the score was: Pittsburgh,
10; Chicagos, 7. The batting was to open
with the weaker end of the team, and defeat
being almost sure, hundreds of spectators
had jumped into the field and were cutting
across toward town. O'Xeil stood on tbe
right coaching line in perfunctory attitude,
thinking perhaps of what might have been.
Latham straddled the opposite line, but his
clownish chirp was silenced and his usual
song-and-dance gyrations gave place to un
doubted sadness. "Long John" Tener was
pitching for the Pittshurgs and for five in
nings had held the Chicago batsmen in his
vise of puzzling curves and shoots. Comis
key,with bat across his shoulder, stood at the
plate to begin the end of the supposed
thrashing his men were receiving. He al
lowed two tails to pass over the plate with
out a move.
THE ruir STAETED.
Id the next the great first baseman de
tected a weak spot as it neared him, and
aiming true he lunged at it with sufficient
force to send tbe leather over second.
O'Neil looked tip and Latham tried to
smile. Darling waved his club in tbe air,
caught Tener's very first attempt and placed
tbe ball safely into right, reaching first,
while the captain held down third. A wave
of noise in the stand and pavilions showed
that something might yet happen. O'Neil
found his voice and began coaching vocifer
ouslv, while Latham unbuttoned his blazer
and begged ot Farrell "to lor heaven's sake
hit tbe ball." Farrell hit tbe ball, and
when be did tbe home goers rushed back to
their seats. O'Neil fell in a heap from joy
and Latham turned a handspring. It was a
long time between the hit and the descent of
tbe ball, which landed within 20 leel of the
center fence and struck the wheel of an om
nibus. With a clear path Farrell would
have made a borne run, but to avoid disaster
he stopped at third.
AIT AWFUL DISASTER.
By this time, Comiskey and Darling hav
ing scored, the spectators were in a whirl of
excitement. No one was out when Bastian
shook his bat mockingly at Tener. The tall
pitcher shot the ball but once at the little
bbortstop. The latter punched it in the
most tender spot and raced from bag to bag
as the ball sped on and on over right field.
Farrell scored the tying run amid h noise
that drowned even Latham's best effort to
howl. B.istiHn rested on third base and still
no one was out. Then Murk Baldwin, who
had not yet touched the bull with a bat,
rushed a screecber into left, and was so sur
prised that he got only as lar as second,
while Babtsan crossed the plate with tbe
winning run. Latham wept as Beckley
caught his cruel oul fly. Baldwin was still
on second when Daffy's attempt to sacrifice
failed, but he came home, welcomed like a
hero, when Ityan hit safely over Robinson's
bead. Five runs had now been scored aud
earned, but O'Neil continued the bombard
ment by squirting tbe globe into right and
sending Byan to third. Comiskey was tenth
man at bat, but was fielded out, and a re
markable game had been won and lost. In
one inning Tener had been touched up for
seven hits, with a total of 12 bases. Tbe

Philadelphia. May 7. -'Yon can say most
positively that Pickett will not play ball any
more this season," said Lawyer John M. Van
dershce this morning.
"Then you will not contest that matter any
further?"
"No, sir. We could take it to the Supreme
Court, but it would be of no avaiL The playing
season would be over before we could get a
decision. Pickett will go into private busi
ness." "How abont tbe proposed snits against
Myers, Thompson, Clements, Qleason and
Sbriver?"
"Tbe papers are all drawn up and are in the
hands of tbe printer. It is hardly probable
that tbey will be ready to-day. As soon as we
get them from the printer, probably to-morrow,
thpy will bo filed In the Court of Common
Pleas No. 4. In tbe cases of Myers, Thompson
and Clements bills in equity will be filed, based
upon tbetr contracts signed with the Players'
League, while suits for damages for breach ot
contract will probably be institnted againsr
Gleason and Sbriver on the strength of tbe
Brotherhood agreement suned by them but
summer."
"Was this action only determined upon since
the decision in tbe Pickett case?"
"No. air. Two weeks ago the directors of the
Philadelphia Players' League club at a meet
ing resolved to bring these suits and left tbe
matter In my hands. I advised against it, be
cause I did not think preliminary injunctions
would be granted and believed that it uouldbe
only thne and money lost. A similar pre
liminary injunction has never before been
granted in Pennsylvania. 1 do not lee, in tbe
light of the. Pickett decision, bow there can be
any trouble with our suits against Thompson,
Myers and Clements. It seems to me that tbe
papers will simply be filed and the injunctions
prayed for granted."

Cleveland, May 7. Afterone 11-inning
tie game and two postponed by rain, the
weather permitted the Cleveland and
Pittsburg clnbs to play to-day. Over 600
people shivered and shook and tbe players
suffered with the cold.
Zimmer bore off the all
around honors of the day
and young Baker, of
Pittsburg, goes on record
as the first man to pitch
a club out with only four
bits and lose his game.
Beatjn was hit hard
throughout the game
and yet tbe Pittsburgers
could not connect safely,
with the ball when
they stood most in need
of adding some runs to
their score. Baker has
a drop ball that finds its
way over the plate just as
though it had been shot
out of a gun, and to this
he adds a speedy straight
ball that has a tendency
to shoot up when least expected and bam
boozle the batter into striking about four
inches under it.
NABBED BILLY SUNDAY.
Zimmer caught the agilo and exuberant
Mr. Sunday in his first attempt to commit
larceny on second and after tbat the Pitts
burg sprinter waB very careful how he at
tempted to make a steal. The order of bat
ting was changed and tbe Pittsburgs sent
in to take their turn with the stick first.
The Smoky City colts could do nothing un
til tbe third inning. With one man out
"Foghorn" Miller got his base on balls.
Hecker marched up to the plate and caught
one of Beatin's slow drops in a painfnl way
and rapped it safely toward the outfield,
sending Miller jogging to second. Kelty,
the big youth who prances about in left
field, cleared the bases with a triple and
everybody was happv that he wore a Pitts
burg uniform. La Eoque's foul to Smalley
and Dunlap's slow hit to Beatin ended the
run-getting 'or Pittsburg in that inning.
In the filth Smoky City drew another"score.
"Wilson died at first, Baker knocked a nice
littlesiDgletoleft ,
A FORTUNATE ERROR.
Sunday could do no better for his conntry
than force Baker out at second, but Smalley
saved Pittsburg's chances by fumbling
Hemp's grounder and then Miller's single
sent the run in. The Pittsburgs tied the
score in the eighth on Miller's base on balls,
Ardner's fumble of Hecker's bit and his
pass of Zimmer's assist Cleveland began
scoring in the fourtb, when Daly was given
his base on balls, Baker followed with a
similar dose for Zimmer and Davis hit to
left center, sending Daly home. With two
men on bases Teach lilted the ball for a
double and sent both runners home. In the
sixth Davis got another run on Kelty's mufi
and a single by Ardner. Zimmer won the
game for Cleveland in the eighth by daring
base running. He got bis base on balls and
went to second on a sacrifice, a wild pitch
and a daring slide home brought in the
winning run and settled the game. Heck
er's colts tried hard to tie the score in the
ninth inning, but "Wilson went to sleep on
third and was caught by a quick throw of
Zimmer. The score:

worthy of especial mention. Tbe Cincinnatis

delivery was too puzzling. Cooney and Carroll

Paul Hines was released by tbelocal National
League club yesterday. His release is uncon
ditional, so tbat he Is at liberty to sign with any
other club at once. Speaking about tbe mat
ter vesterday afternoon President Nimlck said:
"We conldn't well do other than release
Hines, because it was a question ot releasing
Hines or Hecker, and we certainly conldn't
dispense with the latter. He Is a first base
player, and to bavo kept Hines would have
kept Hecker on the bench, and we could not
afford that. Hines is a good outfielder, bnt we
are satisfied with the outfield we have. I think
Hecker will pitch now ana again as soon as be
gets into condition. Youngman has not been
released."
It Is thought that Youngman will be dis
pensed with before many days.
Philadelphia, 6-Boston,4."

wild throw by Allen. Attendance 1,285. Score:

HttESlTJENT YOUNG'S VIEWS.
He Talks Abont the Alinatlon and Censures
the Wnalilngton Club.
rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCILl
WASHfN gton. May 7. President Young has
several additional umpires in mind and be is
prepared to inaugurate tho double umpire sys
tem whenever a majority of the League clnbs
demand. In conversation with yonr corre
spondent to-dav, be said:
"The League has no definite plant looking to
a change in tbe situation. We are still deter
mined to keep up tbe fight on the same lines.
uui mere is plenty oi money Deing tost. At
least six of our cities are solid even if tbey do
not make money, and tbey mean to stay in tbe
business. Here in Washington there are not
as good crowds as they should be. The
games that club has pnt up ought to draw an
arerage of 1,500 people a game. An average of
L200 is necess try to pay expenses. But I think
wasnington was lortnnaie in getting out wnen
It did." Continuing, he said: "It looks very
much as though tbe Washington club has been
gnilty of a direct violation of the national
agreement by playing that game on
Sunday with the Philadelphia profes
sionals. Colonel Rogers first called my
attention to this game and 1 immediately
telephoned Walter Hewitt to find out what he
had to say about tbe matter. He replied tbat
be did not know that the professionals were in
eligible; did not know that they had plaved
with Brotherhood clubs. Further inquiry
brought out the statement from Mr. Sullivan
that even he did not know he was violating
the agreement. He does not seem to have
read tbe newspapers. I do not well see bow the
board of arbitration, to which the matter will
be referred, can refuse to accept Mr. Sullivan's
statement tbat he did not know what he was
doing.althougb there has been a clear violation.
Tbere Ul probably be some snch verdict as "not
guilty, but don't do It again.' rendered in the
case. The Washington team ongbt to abstain
from Sunday games anyhow. This is not a Sun
day town, and tbere is no sympathy here for a
club tbat will play ball on Snnday."

The McKeespnrtu Defeat the Dayton In an
11-Innlng Came.
McKeespobt, May 7. Tbe MeKees
port and Dayton clnbs ' played another
wonderful game here to-day in the presence of
a small crowd, owing to tbe cold weather. Botn
clnbs did some of tbe most brilliant work ever
seen on tbo home grounds. Leamon made a
great jump in the air and caught a liner off tbe
baf of Niles that would have been good for
three bases, and Shoup in the eleventh got two
balls that are almost always base hits, falling
on tho ground and throwing the runner out
The Daytons scored three unearned runs in
the eighth innrng, tying the score, and in the
eleventh Provins got first on balls, stole sec
ond, went to third on Lancer's sacrifice and
scored the winning run on a passed ball. Day
ton could do nothing In their half of the
eleventh, and the game was tbe home club's.
Lancer and Niles did some great work with
tbe bat and Lyons played a great fielding gamo
at second for the visitors. Miller did some
brilliant plajing In tbe field. Milbee and Cote,
the home battery, had an off day. "Cuppy"
waa bit very bard, bnt the ball mostly went
straight into a fielder's bands almost every
time. Tbe same clnbs play their last game of
tbe series to-morrow, and if the weather is fair
a good crowd may be expected. Score:

Celebrated Trap Sham.
The local shooting tournament, promoted
by Messrs. E. E. Shaner, Crow, Rich
ardson. Davison and C M. Hostetter. was
brought to a highly successful conclusion
yesterday. The tournament has certainly been
tbe best ever held in this city, and probably a
'better has not been heldr In the country. The
entries have been extraordinary, considering
tbat the matches were open to the world. One
noteworthy feature of the two days' shooting
has been the prominent part tbe local shots
have taken. They have been good winners and
the famous competitors from'otber cities have
had none fie best of it.
The attendance yesterday was again large,
but the atmosphere, as on Tuesday, was not
favorable to the shooters. The management
was excellent, and in tbe two days more
than 17.000 clay birds have been used. This
shows tbat the affair has been conducted in
the most expeditious manner. Following were

Elizabeth", May 7. The May term of the
Union County Court opened yesterday with
Judge Van Syckle, of the Supreme Court, on
the bench. When the grand jury was sworn
the Judge delivered a scatchlng charge regard
ing the race tracks of Elizabeth. After ad
monishing the jury tbat they were clothed with
all power to indict offenders of the law and
could apply to the Cocrt for instructions be
siid the grand jury was responsible if offend
ers were no: punished after proper evidence
was submitted of violations of the law.
Then the Judge proceeded to call special at-,
tentlon to tbe New Jersey Jockey Club and tbe
Linden Park Blood Horse Association, where,
be stated, the Court bad been informed tbat
the criminal laws of the State were violated by
tbe making of books and pool-selling. He
added: "These are crimes against tbe law of
the land. Every box where betting is carried
on is a disorderly house. Tbe race track is a
disorderly house. These associations and their
officers having control of tbe manner in which
they are conducted are guilty of violating tbe
law. Horse racing is permitted by the law.
No complaint can be made against these asso
ciations for that, bnt if they have aoased tbe
privilege which the State has given them to
open a track for the racing of horses they
sbonld be held to the strictest accountability
for their misconduct."
"WTTATB DJ THE "WTHD!
The National "League magnates Are Moving;
Abont Very Mysteriously.
There is. undoubtedly, a mysterious move
ment going on among the National League
magnates. They are quietly hieing themselves
away to New York if all reports are true, J. P.
O'Neil is there, and President Nimlck either
left last night or will go to-aay. A. G. Spalding,
of Chicago, Is also on his way there or may be
there oow. President Nimlck remarked to
Constable Hesoer, of Alderman McMaster's
office, yesterday, that be, Nimlck. couldn't set
tie the rent difficulty until he saw Mr. O'Neil
in Mew York.
However, some people surmise tbat tbere
are Intentions of a change or policy among tbe
N, L magnates, and that a secret .meeting is
to be held in New York, probably to-day, to
change their schedule. The Dispatch has
strongly advocated a policy bf this kind as
being the best one. However, it is invariably
difficult for tbe publio to learn the intentions
of the National League magnates, particularly
that part of them residing in Pittsburg. As a
rule, some of these gentlemen yav soma verv
unreliable tbings. and although President
Nimlck was questioned yesterday, he declined
to say anything except that the rent difficulty
regarding Recreation Park would be settled at
once.
