CriCIAI. TEI roKAM TO THE DI1PATCH.1
Brookltjc, May '.ft The day was very dis
agreeable for ball playing, and tbe drizzliDC
rain tbat fell made it vcrv unpleasant. Those
nbo journeyed out to Eastern Park to -see
"Ward's mud hones play the Pittsburj; (P. L.)
team were not rewarded, for the contest was
devoid of interest. The ball must hare been
wet and slippery, for Connie Murphy, the
Brooklyn pitcher, could not pet control of the
sphere, and the result was that he sent ten men
to first on balls. Tbe Pittsburgs made 11 safe
hits, besides making a total of 21 bases, and all
they got from this, not Including the errors the
home team made, was seven runs. It seemed a
case of bad luck for them
Kuehne at third bate tumbled half of his chances
and Corcoran made two errors that were of the
damaging kind. Tlie Hrooklyns seized every op
portunity offered them in run-getting. They
batted Galvin hard in the second and again in the
ninth innings and through good Judgment in base
running scored runs fast. Catcher Carroll, of the
Smoky City team, was struck with a foul ball in
the second inning and retired, yulnn taking his
place. The batting or ard, Kluslow and Cor
coran was the feature of the came. Hanlon made
a good running catch in center Seld and Koblnson
did good work at second base. ilie score:

ECAHBEETTS STATEMENT.
Flo Once More Denies Storlca About tho
l.ocnl N. I- Club.
During a conversation yesterday Secretary
Bcandrctt, of the local National League club, thus
replied to tbe latest rumors:
There is no truth whatever in the statements
that we have received any offer from Indianapolis
for our team. We arc not tnlnklng about a trans
fer, and as far as I know no transfer of tho team
will take place. If there was going to be a League
meeting in ew York Cly, 1 tbluk that Mr.
Mmlck and mvseir would knowof it. We have
received no notice of a meeting and there cannot
be an official meeting except notices are sent out.
I have Just recfived a letter from President Young
stating that Miller has been flued 120. The letter
was written In Washington, so that Mr. Young
is not in ew iork.
"But if several of the League officials ate In
New York they mav have an informal meeting to
talk matters over. Mr. O'.Sell may ask permis
sion to reduce our admission price to 25 cents. If
he gets general consent thit will do. I think it
would be a itlse thing to transfer some ot the
gamesto Indlauapollt. but whether there Is a
Jencral desire to do that or not I don't know,
lowever. the end of all this nonsense will come
and until It comes both parties will have to put
up lots or cash."

PHILADELPHIA, May 26.-Juplter PluTius put
on the overalls of Judas Iscariot to-day and went
out "sporting." lie chose for his field the terri
tory dedicated to the baseball people, and at once
began operations on Reach, Rogers Co. In
other words, the rain held off till "The Phillies"
had had their 4ve innings and the Plttsburgs had
had four and two-thirds. The score was 2 to 1 In
favor of the borne team, and Roat and Bsrger
were out In the list half ot the fifth. Jones was
at bat and there were two strikes called just when
the rain began to pour.
Hcckcr was begging Umpire McUermott to call
the game, and Clements was begging Vlckery to
"put the ball over the plate," but Vlckery could
not do it and Jones got first on balls. While Sun
day was at bat the game was called. It had been
a close call. The Phillies had nearly won. The
Phillies had made four hits for live bases and the
Plttsburgs three singles. Each team bad made
three errors.

THE SHEFTIELD HANDICAP.
Some Interesting Pointers Abont the Two
Blc TVhllKnntidr Events.
Regarding the two Whitsuntide sprint handi
caps at Sheffield the London RtfereeotM&y 11 says;
Messrs. Ford A Co.'s Handicap With the single
exception of the Whitsuntide handicap of 1S83,
won by the local ped, Elmmonlte, no other Whit
suntide handicap decided during the last dozen
years attracted such a numerous entry as the
forthcoming one, promoted by Mr. Ford Co.;
and although it was naturally expected that a
good acceptance would be secured, no one, not
even tbe promoters themselves, anticipated that
the exceptionally large number of 69 of the 83 en
trants would be satisfied with their starts. As it
Is, another record has been reached in connection
with these ventures, as tbe acceptance Is the most
numerous received for any similar event in the
last dozen years. The 17 non-acceptors are Hutch
ens, Donovan, Quirk, Bovd, Tattersall. Good,
Lister. Dooley. Kevlll, Taylor, Cunllffe, Morris,
Penn. Terry. Jai ques, Wallace and Ellis. Ever
since the publication of tne entries, thepenclller
who represents the company has been profuse in
his oilers to bet ten fifties on the field, but un to
the present time no one has been supported, and
the offer is one of M0 to 50 on the field.
Messrs. Mortc& Co.'shandlcap The acceptance
of 39 out of 55 entries for this event was quite in
accordance with the entry. The 16 peas who are
not satisfied with their starts arc Hutchens, Peet,
Tatttrsall, Alrton. Good, Patterson (of Hawick),
Hendrv. Large, Oxley (late Uaxter). Fyson.Hawk
slev, Alrev, lUrley, Donley, Freeman and Will
iamson. During the rmt week Thorpe. South
and Donley were each well supported, but the lat
ter does not appear among tbe acceptances.
Thorpe Is now a hot favorite, 5 to 2 being Wanted,
'fff-nlght's prices are as follows: Five to I against
Thorpe (L and w. ), 7 to 2 against South (w. ), 200 to
20 bar two (o).
A MALICIOUS ACT.
An Unknown Person Kills n Locnl Chnm
plou Irish better.
Mr. TV. L.TVash!ngton's kennels or Irish setters
hare sustained a severe loss by tbe death of his
beautiful 2-year-old bitch, Peale Ruby.
Friday afternoon Mr. Washington started across
the fields at his country place, near Washington
county, accompanied by several of his Irish set
ters. Peale Ruby and Champion Ruby Glcrmore
got lost from the party, but about 8 o'clock Ruby
Glenmore returned home alone. Peale Ruby not
having returned by the next morning a search
was instituted which resulted In the finding of
her body within 100 yards of the kennels with a
bullet through her brain. Mr. Washington Is
greatly distressed, and has offered a large reward
for the arrest and conviction of the dog's slayer.
Peale Ruby was sired by Elcho, Jr.. the cham
pion Irish setter of America, and was out or tbe
lamous Floss. She was a beautiful specimen of
her breed, and was in whelp to the Imported prize
winner Darby II. It was Mr. Washington's In
tention to have run her through the circuit of
field trials. She has only recently been purchased
at a very high figure.

nspend Business Indefinitely.
rKPKCIAL TELEGRAM TO TOE DISPATCJt.l
Lancaster. May 26. The Lancaster baseball
club, of the Inter-State League, was disbanded
by Manager Goodhart this evening. There would
have been a game with Lebanon to-day, had it
not rained, but the Lancaster manager said this

the baseball war in 1884, In which much money
was lost.
This year's club started with little money and
was organized more for the accommodation of
the other teams In order to give them a good
circuit, than anything else. Although the people
seemed willing to patronize the club. If It played
winning ball, men with capital couldn't he In
duced to back It. Manager Goodhart did not have
the money to secure better players and thought it
about time to stop now.

AN EARLT ADJOURNMENT PE0BABLE
rtrXCIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIBPATCH.l
Saratoga, May 26. The committee ap
pointed tb nominate to the assembly the 16
ministers and 10 elders who are to revise the
confession failing to report, the Presby
terian Assembly devoted its morning session
to-day to business of the sort usually de
nominated routine. -
Its only action of public importance was
the adoption of resolntions in favor of the
continuance of the use of the Bible in the
pnblic schools. The subject came before
the assembly in the shape of a report which
was made by the Committee on Bills and
Overtures and of which the following is the
concluding and pertinent part:
THE BIBLE tN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
"That as the Bible is the source of the
highest moral teaching, we regard its ex
clusion from our public schools as a menace
to national welfare and we urge the mem
bers of our church to so arouse public
thought on this subject from the pulpit, tbe
prpss and ecclesiastical assemblages, that
this book shall be restored to its true place
in our system of education." The report
was adopted unanimously. The next thing
done by the assembly was ot a character to
excite the surprise of one unaccustomed to
the apparently contradictory acts of an
ecclesiastical body. It was the passage of
resolutions continuing in office for three
years or more, the members of the Board of
Publication who have been hauled over the
coals for mismanagement and whose modus
operandi is to be the subject of investigation
for a long time to come, as it has been for a
long time in the past.
The Rev. Dr. Crosby offered the resolu
tions. The terms of office of the following
gentlemen expiring in June, 1890, they were
recommended to be elected to the Board for
three rears: Ministers, Bev. Benjamin L.
Agnew, D. D., Bev. T. A. Hoyt, D. D.,
Bev. John Hemphill, D. T., Rev. James
Stuart Dickson; Elders, Samuel C.Perkins,
L.L. D Hon. Robert N. "Willson. Trank
lin Li. Sheppard, Esq., and as the Hon.
John Scott declines re-election, Mr. "W. B.
Parsons, of New York, will be elected to
the Board for three years.
INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE APPOINTED.
As ff to emphasize the seeming inconsist
ency of continuing in office lor three long
years .persons who have been declared in
competent by one investigating committee,
the new committee which is to investigate
their mode of management was announced
as follows by tbe Moderator immediately on
the passage of these resolutions: Alfred H.
Hand, Lackawanna; Elias Montlord, Cin
cinnati; A. D. E. Randolph, New York;
George S. Draper, St. Louis; Reuben S.
Smith. Cleveland; "W. C. Martin, New
York; W, A. Brodie, Rochester. The rest"
ot the morning session was occupied with
consideration of tbe perennial question of
unemployed ministers and vacant churches.
Dr. Herrick Johnson read the report of
the Committee on Church Polity, contain
ing answers to overtures from many Presby
teries as to points in Presbyterian polity.
Accepted and committee discharged.
The Committee on Organization of
Churches was presented by Dr. Hodge, of
Hartford. It defined the status of a Pres
byterian Church that has no members quali
fied to act as elders. The question origin
ated in a church organized wholly for
women. Reports adopted, to the effect that
such a church cannot be enrolled until it
has an elder.
Relating to a request from two colored
Presbyteries to be treated as independent
in their application for missionary aid, the
samo as white Presbyteries, the report of
the Committee on the Prcedmcn favored
keeping them in subordination to the Freed
men's Board.
Dr. Booth, of New York, protested indig
nantly against the recommendation of the
board. He said it tended to destroy the
self-respect of our colored brethren.
MUST HAVE THE INDORSEMENT.
Dr. Morns, of Lane Seminary, said that
the Preedmcn's Board is set to do for the
colored churches what is done throngh four
or five boards for white missionarr churches'.
The last assembly decided that application
from colored presbyteries for aid from any
other board, lor example that of church
erection, must have tbe indorsement of the
Preedman's Board. He had himself been
an abolitionist from his boyhood, but
thought tbe colored brethren need not only
to learn self-respect, but also a lesson of
their Northern brethren who have been do
ing so much for them.
Rev. George T. Dillard, colored, said: We
are thoroughly loyal to Presbyterianism and
expect to stay so. Whylo not Morthern
Presbyteries have to make their applications
in some such roundabout way? It will con
fuse and perplex us if this answer goes down
to our Presbyteries.
Dr. Patterson, of Philadelphia, said he
had a great admiration for the intelligence
and order of the colored Presbyteries. He
thought that the nction recommended by the
committee is a slur upon their manhood.
Dr. Crosby thought that the logic of the
case is with the colored brethren. The
Freedften's Board should be merely a bu
reau in the Home Mission Board. If we
grant this proper and natural request, it
is true we dissolve the Preedmen's Board.
But has not the proper time come for such a
dissolution?
It was voted after animated debate of 179
to 125 to grant the request of the colored
Presbytery.
The report of the Committee on Deacon
esses was presented by Prof. Tyarfield, of
Princeton Seminary. It recognized as a fact
the claim that women served in the apos
tolic church in an office similar to that of
deacons, and held that they may be elected
and set apart in a similar way.
NOT LICENSED TO PREACH.
This is not a step in the direction of giv
ing them license to preach. On the ques
tion of amending form of government to
correspond to this report, there was opposi
tion from Dr. Van Dyke, of Brooklyn, and
from Dr. Warren, ot San Jnse, Cal., who
moved an amendment tb the effect that the
Assembly add nothing to its previous de
cisions that officers of the church must be
males.
Rev. David Bonner, or Hudson, N. Y.,
said that he thought the New Testament
does not so much prohibit as exempt our
sisters from bearing office.
Dr. Crosby said that in the Book of Tim
othy there is in the use of the Greek words
proof that there was such an office as deacon
ness. Dr. Van Dyke was surprised that so re
volutionary a proposition should come from
Princeton. Dou't let us overwhelm our
people with new suggestions.
DR. STEVENSON'S SATIRE.
Dr. Agnew thought it was not an oppor
tune time to send down any overtures on the
subject,
Dr. Stevenson, of New Jersey, said that
Dr. Warfield had said thatPrinceton never
put forward a new idea in theology, and
that this is his endeavor to remove that
stigma. Uproarious laughter
It was voted that the recommendations of
the committee be accepted, viz.: Be sent
down to the Presbyteries an overture for
such change in the form of government a's
allow deaconeses and by prayersetting them
apart for their office.
The Chairman announced that ns the Nomi
nating Committee on Revision had come to
an unanimous decision, the names would be
given this evening.

The regular meeting of the Board of Direc

yesterday afternoon. A communication was
received from John H. Anderson, a citizen of
Osceolo, Neb., petitioning the Chamber to ass:
Congress to take immediate action to improve
the rivers and harbors of Nebraska, and also to

ferred to the proper committee. Another com
munication was received from the Commercial
Club of Kansas City, requesting the Chamber
to indorse resolutions to Congress asking the

commerce law. The rigid interpretation of tho
sections referred to is said to inflict a hardship
on tbe interior commercial confers of the West,
which are not ou or near large navigable
streams.
Another feature of the communication asks

fair and reciprocal trado relations between the
United States and Mexico. Tbe matter was

Mr. Theodore Straub, the brewer, said yes

Por every pound of hops imported he says
that ten are exported. But if the duty ou
barley is raised it will come hard on the

Kings are but men, but all men are not kings. Therefore,
when the King of Holland says, as he did by deed of August
12, 1889, that he is greatly pleased with
Van HoiiiENS Gqgoa,
"BEST & GOES FARTHEST,"
and, entirely unsolicited, grants the manufacturers the sole
right of styling their works the Royal Cocoa Factory, a sig
nificance attaches to the act which would not were he
I not "every inch a king."

WILLIAM HENRY SEWARD
Was born in Florida in 1801. His natural abilities ob
tained early recognition, he being elected Governor of
New York at the age of 33. Afterward he was chosen
U. S. Senator and was Secretary of State under Lin
coln. At the time of the latter's assassination, Seward
was also badly injured by one of the assassins, but sur
vived his wounds. He was also quite a literary man,
contributing a number of works to contemporary
literature.
