raws $m 6 THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, MONDAY, MAY 26, 1890 " fW-" tl m I ? IP .-PLEAF0R PEACE, Prominent Baseball Authorities Plainly Urge a Change of the Schedule, REASONS FOR THE CHANGE Strongly Pointed Out by a Players' League Supporter. McBRIDE'S HAKD BADLY IKJUEED. 'lke-We'r Tells Whj He Did Not Defeat Australian Murphy. THB SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAT The question of abolishinc the conflicting dates of the National and Players' .Leagues is - Gaily becoming the most important one in base ball affairs. All the leading baseball authori ties are more or less discussing it and the ma jority are of the opinion that conflicting dates are the greatest source of the present bitter and partisan feeling and are also the chief cause of turning the pnblic mind against the national game. The Dispatch from the time when tbe schedules were first talked of has held the opinion that conflicting dates should be avoided by all means. Since ther have been adopted this paper has urged abolition and others are now ably supplementing The Dispatch's efforts. In Its current Issue, the Sporting Lift, a staunch supporter of the Players' League, has tbe following to say on the question: SOME GOOD ADVICE. Sow then let the leaders of the l'layers' League sdmltfdH more progressive than the old mag nates put their heads together and consider the situation. If they find thit they can afford to fight the League on the lines laid down hy the latter, well and good. If on the other hand It would ap pear best for the future of the new League, for the good of the game and for the financial Interests of the capitalists and players to change the schedule, then let the change he made without the slightest regard for the Jibes of time-serving newspapers, thejeersof the unthlnUug multitude or the ex ultant shouts or the League camp-followers. All that will 'be rorgotten In a week; eTcn more quickly tban were the Issues Involved In the present war. The public will certainly welcome the change and the Flayers' League suffer not a whit In pnblic estimation because It chose to con sider Its own Interest first In ending a battle which was not of ltschoo6lng, and which, while It may not be doing It great harm. Is certalnlv not doing It any good, a fact for which the damare tbe League Is sustaining Is hot small consolation. Keason and argument are so much in favor of the change suggested that nothing but orejurilce and bigotry prevent those directly Interested in the two organizations from making the change. A GOOD PBOOF. The past week affords sufficient proof of the public Indifference regarding tbe game compared to tbe enthusiasm that has heretofore prevailed. As the authority already quoted intimates, tbe new League has not anything to lose hy changing Its schedule, but everything to gain. However certain Its success mar aDnear now. the abolition of conflicting dates would make its success surer stiu. ana, aoovc all. tne cnauge wonia allay much of the bitter ana hostile reeling that exists among tbe public W 1th one club In a city at a time, the Jiublic would soon get Into its normal state regard ng baseball, and It then would not require much time to prove exactly which club the public wanted. The parly who nrst makes an effort to abolish conflicting dates will certainly give proof that It has the prestige of the same more at heart than the fear oi the clamoring of a few lrrespon- aioie people. SUFFICIENT OPrOBTUNITT. There Is now ample opportunity to have the matter settled All the clubs are In the East, and a. meeting could be arranged without much trouble and at very little expense. The bold cry or "War to the death" isverywcil In Its place, but there is no sound reason at all why It should be used In this Instance All the charges and counter charges now being made bv the parties In the conflict w 111 only lead to the utter demoraliza tion of the game of which America lias been so proud and that has been supported so generonslr. If the present unpleasantness Is allowed to con tinue muchlongcr baseball wlllprobably berOund almost entirely discarded bv the public press, and In that event all the money now Invested In It will be rery worthless Indeed. The best friends of the game and of the players earnestly urge a change of schedule. bo far the National League has not hesitated to make changes that good business principles firomptcd, and if all accounts are true, th-xtorcan-ration may make more shortly. If the better Judgment of the new League leaders Is allowed to prevail a change will be made at onte as a popular more. If for nothing else. THE WATEB CUBES BEATEN.

MATCHED AT LAST. A Forfeit Fnt Up for n Battle Between John L. Sullivan nnd Joe BIcAoIlffe The Fight to Tnke Place In Aagnsi. tTTCIAl. TELEGRAM TO THB DISFATCn.l New York, May 2& A match has at last been arranged in which Champion John L. Sullivan will figure as one of the principals. His adversary will be Joe JlcAuliffe, the heavy-weight from the Pacific dope, who was never defeated until he met Peter Jackson. Late on Saturday night a crowd of prominent sporting men, which included Billy Madden, Jimmy Wakeleyand Phil Lynch, met at an up town resort and arranged the meeting between tbe giants. The match bad been talked about for some time past, and both parties were equally eager to sign articles, but it was not nntll Saturday that matters reached a definite conclusion. It was agreed that tbe fight should be fought to a finish, for 55,000 a side, with light gloves. Marouls of O.ueensbury rules to trovern. Phil Lvnch deposited $500 in Jim Wakeley's hands as a forfeit for Sullivan. Billy Madden did the tame for McAulifle. Wakeley was then selected as stakeholder. The fight will take place some time in Aucust Texas or Virginia will be the battle ground. If the Virginia Athletic Club has such an accommodating spot for the battle, safe from police interference, it is very likely that It will take place, as It will be "most too warm in Texas to have any sort of a contest as this during August. Sullivan will no donbt be tbe favorite, but McAulifle's chances are re garded as first rate by his friends. ENDED IN BIOT. The Stadentt of Ann Arbor Hnve Lively bcenes nt Their Games. rSPXClAI. TXLIOBAJI TO THK DISPATCR.t ANN Abbob, May 25. The annual field day games of the. University of Michigan yesterday developed Into a smill but enthusiastic riot. Everything passeu off harmoniously until the sparring was introduced, and then brutality ran wild, andbe scene enacted was simply dis graceful. The lightweight boxing contests were veritable slugging matches and aroused the spectators to a point of frenzy. It was tbs middle-weight contests that the sensation- of the day occurred. Vhay, a De troit amateur, in the first contest pounded Glidden, a University man, on, tbe rope?, but failed to knock him out, while the spectators veiled like demons and both men were sprinkled with blood. Vhay got the battle, and Glidden was so grogsy that he had to be helped from tho grounds. Vhay then bad to defend his honors against a University man named Arthur Frantzen. In the second round of this contest both men were covered with blood, and tbe crowd was wild. Frantzen had tbe best of the third round, but Referee John Collins, a D. A. C man, gave it to Vhay. Tbe crowd yelled 'Tush him" and started to do him. A deputy sheriff attempted to protect Col lins, and was roughly handled, lie drew his revolver and threatened to shoot, but this did not prevent the students from pounding him, and it took three officers to get Collins and the depntv sheriff from the infuriated students. Tho Sheriff wa badly pounded, and lud one scalp wound where a stone had struck him. The entire list of srjarring events was most brutal, and would have been a disgrace to tbe lowest ring contests.

The fire department of this city was called upon for assistance, and the fire apparatus was put on a special train, but before tbey could start, word reached them that the tire was under control. Kain came down in torrents, which put the fire out, otherwise half of the town, would have been in ruins. The loss is estimated at$50, 000 to 30,000. FATAL BOAT BIDE. A Frail Craft Cnpslzed In n Storm nnd Eight Persona Drowned. Fall Eiveb, Mass., May 25. At "Wa tuppa Lake, about 12:15 o'clock this after noon, a party of 12 persons, comprising Samuel Wittles and wife, Samuel "Wittles, Jr., Henry Wittles, Frederick Buckley, Willie Wittles, Levina and Willie Buckley, Willie Turner, John Buckley, IMwiu Wit tles and George Hammor, hired a boat and went rowing. There was a strong wind blow ing and the water was ruffled. The boat into which the party embarked was a common 13-."oot, flat-bottomed one, and tbe seating capacity is eight, and was too small to ac commodate so many people. The party finally was observed trying to work their way toward shore just north of the pumping station. This was difficult work, as the water was rough, the wind strong and the rowers inexperienced. When the boat load of pleasure seekers was within 20 feet of the shore one of the children rocked the boat. The men cautioned the child to remain quiet, but the child was un mindful of this advice. Suddenly the boat capsized. Heartrending cries rent the air, which were heard by Fireman Bullock, of the pumping station, and James LatTerty, but they were unable toi render assistance. Mr. Turner was the only one in the party who could swim. Three or four on shore cried to them to cling to the boat, but their ailinir strength was unequal to the task. and women and children sank out of sight. Four of the party had struck out for shore on their own hook, and succeeded in reach ing it in an exhausted condition. The following were drowned, their bodies being recovered later in the day: Samuel Wittles, aged 50; Mrs. Wittles, aged 45; Henry Wittles, aged 10; Samuel Wittles, Jr., aged 12; Levina Buckley, aged 35; Fred Buckley, aged 3; Willie Buckley, aged 8; Willie Turner, aged 9. THE, OHIO 017 A EAMPAGE. High Wnter Creoles Havoc Wllh a Bridge Under Coarse of Construction. tSrELlALTILEORAMTO TUB DISPATCn.l Wheeling, May 25. At 3:30 o'clock this afternoon the flood in the Ohio river carried out the channel span of the new Union railroad bridge at the north end of the city. The contractors, Baird Brothers, of Pittsburg, had completed the approaches and the four end spans, and were bending all their energies to complete tho big chan nel span, which is 525 feet loug. The false work containing a tremendous amount of timber was completed two weeks ago, closing the channel, and 400 tons of steel had been hoisted to the top and was in place. Another week would have completed Ihe structure. The rising river piled about two acres of drift above the false work, nnd at noon the contractors saw it was useless to proceed, and tbe bolts connecting the channel span with the spans on either side were cut loose, and all machinery, engines and other material moved off the big span. At 3 o'clock, the work of removing the drift was suspended on account of the great danger, and 30 minutes later the great mass of timber with its immense weight of steel went down with a crash. The channel is Mocked with the mass of steel and timbers. Navigation is extremely dangerous at this point, and some weeks' delay in the progress ol the work on the bridge will result. The loss will be 530,000, beside the delay in anchoring the bridge, as nothing can be done while tbe river is bo high, and the steel is laboriously fished out of the water. SHAEEK BY AN EABTHQTAKE. Town and Clltri In New York Receive a Perceptible fhock. TJTICA, N. Y., May 25. Shortly after 7 A. M., to-day the Mohawk valley was dis turbed by a slight shock of earthquake, ac companied by lightning and heavy winds. The shock in this vicinity was very light, but increased in intenitty lo Montgomery county, where, at t Fort Hunter, it was quite severe. At Little Falls dishes were rattled and a rumbling of distant thunder was heard. At Fort Hunter buildings v, ere shaken and beds moved so that the occu pants were awakened. In TJtica dishes were rattled and some people report a slight vibration, but the shocks were hardly per ceptible. No damage is thus far reported in any quarter. This is tho first seismic phenomenon of note since 1881. STILL AN0THEE ONE. Gloversvlllo Visited by Two Earthquake hho'ckn nnd n Fire. New York, May 25. A special from Gioversville, N. Y., May 25, says that at 7 o'clock this morning the city was visited with a severe shock of earthquake. Large buildings were shaken, people thrown out of chairs nnd out of bed, and glass was shat tered. Tbe earthquake was preceded by a-loud, rumbling sound. At the same moment the fire alarm bells rang out and the whole city turned ont, the excitement being intense. A small 'dwelling was burned. Later in the morning, when the excitement had hardly subsided, the fire bells again gave the alarm, and a large brick building in tbe rear of the Opera House was discovered to be in flames. It was occupied by Julius Cole as a laundry and was entirely destroyed. Another slight shock of earthquake was felt about noon. The shock was the most severe ever felt in this vicinity. STREETS AHD CELLAES FLOODED. Grent Damage lo Knllroada and Other Property nt Johnstown. rSFICTAL TELEGRAM TO THB DISPATCH. Johnstown, May 25. A terrific rain storm, accompanied by heavy thunder and lightning, occurred here this afternoon. The rain fell in sheets for about half an hour, flooding streets, filling cellars and doing a great deal of damage. Railroad street in Cambria City was underwater, the water being up to the first floor in about 50 houses in that street The eaatbound track of the Pennsylvania Eailroad was covered to the depth of two to three feet by dirt washed down from the hills at several places between the stone bridge and Morrellsville, dclayinrr trains for two or three hours. The westbouud track was similarly obstructed between Cone niangh and Johnstown. The rivers arerisjng rapidly, but it is not thought they will do much damage.

Last night during a heavy thunder storm a strong gust of wind struck the power house of the Elec tric Motor Street Car line, causing the brick walls of the building, which was 150 feet long by 50 feet wide, to collapse and the whole building fell with a crash. There were four men in the building at the time, three of whom, two white men and one negro, were killed. ODE OLDEST CITIZEN DEAD. Cnptnln Michael Drnvo Expiree Wear Lonls vllle of Heart Failure The Oldest Nn-tlve-Born Resident of Plttsbnrc End of n Lone nnd Eventfnl Career. A telegram received by The Dispatch last evening from Louisville says: "Cap tain Michael Dravo, the oldest native-born citizen of Pittsburg, died at the residence of his son, Captain Frank Dravo, eight miles from Lqnisviile, at 3 o'clock this morning. The venerable gen tleman v arrived from Pittsburg Fri day, accompanied by his daughter, Mrs. Yankirk, to pay his son a visit.

The, remains will be taken to Pittsbnrg to morrow by his son Frank and Mrs. William Vankirk, his daughter." The Dravo family, of Scotch-Irish ex traction, is one of the oldest in Pittsburg, Anthony Dravo, the father of Michael, having settled here early in the history of the place. Michael was for many years en gaged ' in the coal business in this vicinity, nnd is known to all the older citizens. His oldest son, John F. Dravo, the founder of Dravosburg, was for years one of the prominent business men of the city and is at present Collector of the Port of Pittsburg. Captain Michael Dravo had for some time resided on Forbes avenue with his daughter, Mrs. Vankirk, wife of William Vankirk, of the stove manufacturing firm of A, Bradley &Co. 2TJENED BY ELECTRICITY.

SCORES OP BUILDING COSTBACTS EeToked by Impatient Owners and As sumed Ivy Strjke Managers. TBE COMING CONTEST IN PITTSBDEG rSPICIAL TELEatAM TO THK PISrAICIt.1 Chicago, May 25. Although the car penters' strike is practically over, the fight ing is going on actively as ever between the workmen's organization and the one hun dred and sixty odd contractors who have not yet agreed to pay their worr-men 35 cents per hour and ZT)4 cents per hour after August 1, and adopt the eight-hour day, according to the terms of the settlement. It is estimated that there are 8,000 carpen ters in Chicago, of whom not more thifti 500 are now out of work, taking the figures given at the strike headquarters. Of the 8,000 all but about 1,000 nre claimed to be on the rolls of some one of the four organiza tions by which the strike has been fought and won. The United Brotherhood of Car penters and Joiners, of which P. J. McGuire is Secretary, claims 5,000 members in Chicago. The Amalga mated Association of Carpenters aqd Joiners, an international organization with head quarters in London, is credited with about 600, nearly all English or Scotchmen; the iinignis 01 AaDor wltn about 1,U0U, and an independent local union with about 400. AH of these are represented in the Carpenters' Council, the central organization by which the strike is managed. comparatively few idlers. Mr. Powderly's recent effort for financial assistance in the East wonld thus seem to apply only to a small fraction ot the men who were engaged in the strike and the number of Knights of Labor now out of em ployment to be benefited by it is not very large. An assessment of 20 cents per day has been levied on the men who are now at work for carrying on the strike, but it seems that this bas not yet been collected, for the reason that most of the men have not been at work long enough to have reached their first bi-weekly pav day. The actual expenses ot the strike now are about $300 in cash per day, a part of which goes to keep up a committee of six men at each railway station whose business is to intercept new men who come to the city and induce them not to go to work for the "old bosses," by which the contractors who have not signed the new scale of wages are known. In addition to these there are abont 250 men scattered all over Chicago and Cook countv, under a systematic arrangement, whose business it is to go to each non-union job and persnade the workmen to leave it and join the union. The converts are immediately put on full pay at 35 cents per hour 52 80 per day at the expense of the Carpenters' Connoil, and as soon as possible are civen jobs under some contractor who pays union wanes, even if union men have to leave in order to make places for them. Tbe number of non-union workmen has thus been reduced to about 350, if the statement made at strike bead quarters to-day is correct, and it is probably not very far out of the way, and the non union bosses have been seriously crippled. strikers as contractors. Another scheme which the strike man agers have worked very snccess'ully is to go to the owner of a building in process of con struction and get him to revoke his con tract with the builder. The strike commit tee then fnrnishes workmen, puts them un der a competent foreman, the material is furnished by the owner, and the job is pnt through as rapidly as possible. For in stance, H. Disstou & Sons, the Philadelphia saw firm, were erecting a building on the west side when the strike came. Their con tractors refused to accede to the terms of settlement, and it became evident that the building would pot be completed within the time agreed upon. The Disstous theie upon revoked the contract at the suggestion ofthe Carpenters' Council. They were ini- Jndigestion IS not only a distressing complaint, ot itself, but, by causing tho blood to become depraved and tbe system en feebled, is the parent of innumerable maladies. That Ayer's Sarsaparllla is tbe best enre for Indigestion, even when complicated with Liver Complaint, is proved by the following testimony from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockwbj Centre, Mich.: "Liv6r complaint and indigestion made my life a burden and came near ending my existence. For more than four years I suffered untold agony, was reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly had strength to drag myself about. All kinds of food distressed me, and only the most delicate could bo digested at aii. "Within the time mentioned several physicians treated mo without giving re lief. Nothing that I took seemed to do any permanent good until I commenced the use of Ayer's Sarsaparllla, which has produced wonderful results. Soon after commencing to take the Sarsapa rllla I could see an improvement in my condition. My appetite began to return and with it came tho ability to diges. all the food taken, my strength im proved each day, and after a few months of faithful attention to your directions, I found myself a well woman, able to attend to all household duties.

A. J.

There is a rumor in the air that some of the non-union contractors whose work'has been interfered with are abont to begin proceedings in the criminal courts against the strikers, and it has been stated that warrants had been obtained for the arrest oi every member of the Carpenters Council, but these reports cannot be traced to any re liable source. the builders' losses. Many of the firms which are holding out against the terms of settlement are strong and wpII able to stand the strain. Others, who are not so, are placed in a very trying position. Their contracts were taken at very close figures, as contracts in Chicago almost always are. and were based on the old rate of wages, 30 cents per hour for a ten hour day, and in many instances doubtless an increase of 5 cents per hour in wages wonld swallow np tbe whole mar gin or profit. On the other hand, if their contracts are not fulfilled within the stipu lated time they are liable to be held answer able in damages. More than one of the "old bosses," alter Inlly considering the matter, will probably yield to the strikers' terms before the week is over. It is understood here that the carpenters of Pittsburg and vicinity are getting readv for a similar movement to secure an eight hour day and 40 cents an hour, and it is probably in anticipation of the coming strnggle that a central organization like the Chicago "Carpenters' Council" has recently been formed there.
