Pittsburg's Players' league men braced
tip yesterday and almost eraced their records
of the day before. They-played ball to win
Irom start to finish and they succeed in do
ing so, thanks to Pitcher Staley. They took
advantage of every opportunity offered and
no chance to improve matters went by un
noticed. Only one ttlace did the boys really
fall over themselves, and that was in their
half of the third inning. There was a good
chance to score, but they failed to take ad
vantage of it Visner and Carroll got hits,
and Beckley advanced them a base on a
sacrifice. Fields hit to Pickett, who threw
Visner out at home. Fields tried to goto sec
ond on the play while Carroll attempted to
score. Fields was thrown out by a yard and a
pood chance to add to the score was gone.
However, the runs were not needed and It only
cave Cross and Pickett a chance to disply their
ability In throwing across ths diamond. They
did their work prettily and it was orth the loss
of the runs to see the quick return from the
catcher to second. The Phillies played a pretty
came all through and It is a hard team to beat.
Focarty, in risbt field, more than does his duty,
and with Griffin and Wood an outfield is com
plete that rivals the best.
THE OJfLT ERROR.
The local men also put np a good game,
the only error being that ot Carroll, which let
In one run. Fred only makes a god throw to
second once in awhile and yesterday wasn't his
day. However, on account of his hitting he is
valuable man to have on the team. Manager
Hanlon played his usual good game, and the
other men were away up in G, especially Cor
coran and Robinson. But it was the inability
ot the visitors to solve Staley's delivery that
cost them the game. It is true they had as
many hits as Hanlon's men, but they were In
opportune. Pittsburg started the music immediately at
rnuninr nt the rami bv ManarerHanlon crack
ing out a nice single Visner followed and
made a vain attempt to sacrifie. but it resulted
in a hit along the first base line, which he suc
ceeded in beating out. Hanlon went to third
and Visner took second on Buffinton's wild
throw to catch the manager nanping. Hanlon
scored on Carroll's sacrifice hit to Griffin, and
Becklfv followed with a three-bagger, which
drove "Eisner home. The big first baseman
crossed the plate on Field's sacrifice to Griffin.
Keubnesentahigh fly to Griffin giving that
gentleman the honor of all the putouts in the
Inning. The local men secured no more runs,
though they had bumerous men on bases. 1 he
second inning was opened up with a base hit,
bat no others were lound to back it up. Again
in the fourth Corcoran got a double and vent
to third on Griffin's error, but died there. After
the sixth inning the slae was retired in one,
two, three order.
THEIR OXXY BUNS.
The Phillies began operations in the first.
After Griffin hit to Corcoran and was thrown
out at first, Shindle got a single, stole second
and scored on Carroll's wild throw. Pickett
then struck ont, Mulvey got a two-bagger and
Wood went ont. Corcoran to Beckley. It was
In the ninth vihere the fun was had, however.
Pickett and Mulvey went out at first, and
Wood followed with a two-base hit. Fogarty's
single sent biuf over the plate, and the people
refused to breathe. It looked bad for a
moment, but fetaley remained master of the
situation, and Farrar struck out.
Attendance about 1,760. The score follows:

CASE OF HARD LUCK.
The Pittsburg Men Fall to Connect With ths
Ball nt Opportune Times and Thus Lose
the Game nt Philadelphia.
UrtCIiX TKLXOBAJC TO THX DISPATCH.
Philadelphia, June 21 The game to-day
between the Phillies and Gas City lads was a
very pretty one. Vickery was a trifle wild and
hit bard all through the game, but the fact that
ten Pittsburgers were left on bases goes to
show that when a hit would have meant sure
victory for the Pittsburgh it was not forth
coming. Baker was hit bard in the second
inninc, but in all other Innings his delivery was
practically unfathomable. When Mr. B. F.
Clements left the game he was well supported.
Boat asain made some great plays at third,
and there was little the matter with Allen's
work at short. The Pittsburgs played a great
uphill game, but luck was their Jonah. At the
end of their bait of the seventh Inninc thev
had chanced the score against them from 60
tn B A A foolish niece of ba-e runninc by
Captain La Roque in the seventh and another
by Baker in the eighth made two double plays
possible, and seriously hurt the visitors' chauce
of at least tieing the score. In the last two
games the visitors have played more lively
than at any time before in this this town this
season. The score:

city will pay $25,000 for them. It is believed
that Detroit has offered 20,000. General
Brinker, President of tbe Association, and
Treasurer McKay have gone out of town, and
it is believed they are in Detroit. Socretary
Bobaheck will neither confirm nor deny tbe
rumor, if the franchise is sold it will be be
cause of the lecal action taken to stop Sunday
ball playing. On the other hand the associa
tion's counsel says he is confident tbe rlcht to
play Sundays can be established and that be
will make the present a test case.
lUcKeesport Signing Men.
The McKeesport Ball Company has been
thinking very seriously of selling out, but the
citizens have come forward and purchased a
number of season tickets, so another try will
be made. The team is now very weak on ac
count of a nnmber of the players being injured.
Tbe manacement is strencthening, and has
signed the following players: Purvis, an out
fielder formerly with Grand Rapids; Ed Cull,
second base, of Manistee, Mich., and Bob
Smith, of the West End. Cull will probably
captain the team.

Bibminohaii, Ala., June 24. John L. Sul
livan satisfied Mississippi justice to-day with a
fine of $500, and is now on bis way to New York
with Bnncan B. Harrison, tbe actor. Aspecial
from Purvis says tbe Prosecuting Attorney
agreed to a fine, and with that understanding
Sullivan entered a plea of guilty. Tbe jury
fixed the fine at 500 and the champion also
pays all costs, amounting to several hundred
dollars. The money was paid at once, and the
big sluccer caught the afternoon train on the
Queen & Crescent road. Muldoon ana Mike
Cleary passed through the city to-night en
route for Purvis. Their cases are set for trial
to-morrow.
Wallace Trying to Kick Out.
New York, June 24. The following special
cable from London was received at the Police
Oaz'tte office to-day:
joeMcAullffe and Billy Madden were enter
tained at the Pelican Club last night. Both re
ceived a splendid reception. McAullfle Is a pop
ular favorite. Nunc Wallace reluses to fight
George Dixon, the American colored bantam pu
gilist. In the Pelican Clu b unless the directors of
the club permit Jemmy Carney and MordecaL the
bookmaker, to be present. The Pelican Club re
fuses to allow any obnoxious pesous In the club,
and they will not deviate, no matter whether
Wallace fights or not. Should the matter end in
a fiasco the Pelican Club will give the American a
purse. It Is probable Wallace will back down.
O'Connor Claim the Championship.
Sydney, N.S. W June 24. O'Connor, tbe
oarsman, who was beaten by Stansbury yester
day, bas protested against the payment of the
stakes to tbe latter. O'Connor claims the race
on the ground that Stansbury took his water a
quarter of a mile from the start, and that a
foul ensued. The umpires deny that there was
a foul. The Sydney Herald states that O'Con
nor bas claimed tbe championship because
Kemp would not accept his challenge. O'Con
nor will not row in Australia again. He will
challenge Kemp to row on tbe Thames for
500 aside.

BT DUNLAP'S CABLE COMPANY.
London, June 21 There Is disappointment
and no little gossip in sporting circles over the
failure of Billy Madden and Joe McAullffe to
appear last night and maHp a deposit for a
match with Slav In. The latter and bis backer
were on band. Madden offers the excuse that
he understood the deposit was to be 800 in
stead of 500 a side, and thought the match
party is blnffllng. If they fall to come to time
(Saturday, the purse will te withdrawn.
s THE SULirVAlT-JACKSOH FIGHT,
It Will Probably Come Off la Vlrslnla A
Proposed Bait Flslit.
Washington-, June 24. The Sullivan-Jackson
fight, when it comes off, it is said, will take
place very near the National Capital. The
fight will probably take place under the aus
pices ot theVlrginia Athletic Association on
the Virginia shore of the Potomac, near Wash
ington. Some months ago a good deal of com
ment was caused by the enactment of a law by
the Virginia Legislature which incorporated an
athletic club and cave the officers of the club
omnipotent powers as to Its grounds and prop
erty lying between this city and Alexandria,
known as "Gentleman's Driving Park." They
propose to erect thereupon a clubhouse and
such other buildings as may be necessary. The
work of the construction is to commence at
once, and the management has announced its
intention to have the Sullivan and Jackson
fight take place there.
They say they can do this without interfer
ence, for the law plainly states that no Sheriff
or police officer has any jurisdiction over the
property of the club. The only remedy is the
repeal of the law, and for this purpose a special
session of tho Legislature would have to be
called. The Virginia Legislature, a biennial
body, does not meet in regular session for near
ly two years.
The management has intimated that the
opening performance at their new grounds will
be a ball fight. Tbis proposition would brine
out all the objection that could possibly be
made, and the matter would then have to be
settled by the courts, which the incorporators
say and apoear to believe would uphold the
law as passed oy the last Legislature.
Beztnah Ha Another Victim.
Cincinnati. June 24. Louis Beiinah, the
Covington lightweight, defeated Tommie

Dayton early this morning. Until the
thirteenth round, when Comer got first blood,
the flcht seemed against Bezinab. After this,
however, Bezinah worked hard, and, as Comer
became tired, pushed the fighting, till at
length Comer was knocked completely out in
the thirty-sixth round.

Spriwgfikld, Ix.li., June 24. The Ee

at noon to-dav. Horace S. Clark was made
Temporary Chairman. At the close of his
address the .temporary organization was
completed. A dispatch was received and
read from Senator Cullom, congratulating
the convention and the party on its pros
pects, State and National.
The districts were called and the mem
bers of the various committees announced.
After a short recess the convention reas
sembled and General John H. McNulta, oi
Blootuineton, was made Permanent Chair
man, and he spoke at some length.
AN OMISSIOK CORRECTED.
In making up the State Central Commit
tee at tbe first session, the Hon. A. M.
Jones, of Daviess county, who was lor some
years Chairman of the committee, and a
notable figure in Illinois politics, was left
out. After the permanent organization had
been completed bis friends went to work to
remedy this and succeeded in securing the
selection of two members from the State at
large. These were Mr. Jone? and K. H.
Morris, a colored man from Chicago.
Candidates were then presented lor nomi
nation (or the office of State Treasurer, and
Franz Amberg, of Chicago, was selected on
the second ballot. JJr. Richard A. Ed
wards, the present incumbent, was re
nominated for Superintendent of Public
Instrnction without opposition. General
Smith D. Atkins, of Freeport, Chairman oi
the Committee on Resolntions, presentedltbe
platform, which was adopted. Among other
things it says:
A FEDERAL. ELECTION LAW.
The Republican party of Illinois, in Delegate
Convention assembled, declare that we hereby
renew our oft repeated declaration in favor of
a free and honest ballot and a fair and honest
count of such ballot. We believe that a radi
cal remedy is demanded for all fraudalent
practices at elections, and we recommend our
representatives in tbe next Ueneral As
sembly to enact tbe Australian bal
lot system with such Improvements
and safeguards as the experience of other
States where it bas been adopted and tested
may suggest. We further recommend the
adoption of the bill now before Congress for
tbe protection of all the electors of tbe United
States in the exercise ot their blood-bought
political rights at the polls. The Republican
party bas ever been the champion of the Amer
ican workingman against tbe oppressions or
exactions of corporate monopoly.
We approve the record of tbe present Re
publican Congress in its efforts to legislate in
tbe interest of the American people, and we
approve of the rnle enforced by bpeaker Reed,
by which the rule of tbe majontyin Congress is
made effective, notwithstanding tbe filibuster
ing tactics of a Democratic minority, whose
only purpose seems to be to prevent and ob
struct wise legislation.

ISPECIAI, TELEOBAX TO THE DISPATCH. 1
Norristowit, June 24. In to-day's
Democratic Connty Convention it took six
hours and six ballots to select 10 State dele
gates from 26 candidates. It was a long
and tedious fight, not so much between
Wallace and Pattison as it was on
the personal popularity of the candi
dates. It was a Pattison convention and
Pattison delegates could have been elected,
bnt the great desire was to prevent a fight and
preserve party nnity in this close county.
An effort, therefore, to instruct the dele
gates for Pattison was promptly tabled by a
vote of 137 to 23, some of Pa ttison's warm
est friends voting aye. Tbe delegates elected
are as follows:
Ctaa. Hunsicker and E. F.Kene, Norrlstown;
Jeremiah Quilman, Bottstown; Henry J. Smith,
Upper Hanover: Hiram P. Beerer, Norns
town: Frank S. Mancill, Upper Merion;
George Malsberger, Pottstown; C. A. Cox,
Wbitemarsb; B. Largelere. Jenkintown, and
Pbilip J. Crinean, West Conshohockon.
The delegation at present stands: Wal
lace, 3; Pattison, 3; for the most available
man, 4. Resolutions were adopted
favoring ballot reform, tariff for rev
enue only, reform in State taxation and
strongly condemning Speaker Beed's arbi
trary and dictatorial attempts to override
the universally admitted rights of the mi
nority members of Congress.

Cincinnati, Jane 24. It has been gen

race'this fall because of the differences be
tween himself and the Foraker wing of the
party, and because bis district had been
gerrymandered into a Democratic majority.
But to-day Assistant United States Attor
ney Probasco, who is regarded as very near
to Butworth.said:
I am in position to know that tbe published
statement that Ben Butterworth will not be a
candidate, for Congress Is erroneous. I know:
that the friends of Mr. Butterwortb haver
not had any candidate in mind. Mr. Butter
north is just as much entitled to renominatlon
as Mr. Foraker is to tbe Chairmanship of the
convention at Cleveland. Mr. Butterworth's
record Is clean and brilliant, and be is regarded
as one of tbe great Republican leaders by tbe
press of the country. No one can deny his-fine
attainments as a lawyer, his fine presence as a
man, and his eminent abilitiet as a statesman.
He will be nominated and elected.

BENTIHG OUT PLAYS.
It la as Good as Royalty and bas Several
Advnntagea Over It.
Philadelphia Inquirer.
"Benting ont a play," said a well-known
comedian last evening, "is just now largely
in vogue with native authors who bave made
a reputation and those speculators who pur
chase the American rights of foreign
successes. In point of financial returns it
is about the same as selling a drama on
royalty, but the great advantage in renting
ont is that the author retains the ownership
ot bis production and can always control it,
whereas in a sale on royalty the property
right passes entirely ont of his hands.
"Should the royalty not be paid, of course
the author has his legal remedy, but if his
play be simply rented out all he Iras to do is
to go and take possession ol it in case of a
failure to settle tne rent, thus saving time,
trouble, cost and anxiety, to saj nothing of I
voiding tho law', delay."
' A NAVAL BATTLE
Between Officers and Bathers on the Monn
gahela River Daylight Swimmer Ar
rested Soutbsldera Try to Rescue Tbelr
Friends Oue Man Floats Away.
The passengers of the up-river packets
havo been greatly annoyed of late by the
behavior of overgrown boys and young men
who bathe in the Alonongahela in daylight,
in defiance of the city ordinance and Chief
Brown's order.
Yesterday afternoon Captain Boyd tele
phoned to Inspector McAleese that 40 or 50
young men were bathing near the old Pitts
burg gas house, above the Tenth street bridge.
The Inspector detailed Detectives Shore, Ben
die, Kennedy and Sterck to go after tbe men.
When the bathers saw the officers tbey left
their clothes on the bank, and pushing a long
spar Into tbe water, floated down stream with
it. Friends ot the bathers saw the plight they
were in, and put off in skiffs from the South
side to rescuo them.
The officers ran along the bank until they
reached the railroad bridge, and, obtaining a
boat, rowed out to capture the swimmers..
Several parties of the rescuers tried to sink
the officers' boat by running into it, but the
latter exercised tbelr knowledge of naviga
tion, and warded them off. After quite a
lively time, tbe officers succeeded in capturing
John Savage and John Coleman, each 17 years
old, who were among the swimmers, and John
Conners. 21 years old, who was one of the res
cuers. Tbe men were taken to tbe Central
station with their attire in an incomplete con
dition. ,
All the other men escaped, their friends se
curing their garments, with one exception.
One of tbe swimmers stuck to the spar, and
tbj last seen of him he was floating past the
Point.
Inspector McAleese will make informations
to-day against the other persons concerned in
the affair.

Tbe celebrated director of the band was so ill
that it was almost necessary to carry him at
tbe Union station. His physician said Mr. Gil

best thing be could do was to go to the sea
shore. The band comprised 45 people and

SPECIAL TEUQBAM TO THE DISPATCH.
Erie, June 24. When tbe Pennsylvania
Bailroad Company suspended its operations
at the Pittsburg docks, where they had set
out to expend nearly 250,000, much specu
lation was indulged in. This morning the
contractors at this place had orders to pro
ceed with the work, and while additional
dockj are ordered, extra yard room is to be
made at once, and trestles and storage room
hastened to a speedy completion. The work
ordered will double the capacity ot handling
ore at Erie, and will eall for the expendi
ture of fully $200,000. The work will be
completed in time for next season's traffic.
J. Lewis Linn, of Philadelphia, has the
contract. There are strong indications that
the Pennsylvania Bailroad Company is
working with Cbauncey Andrews and the
Huidekopers to get control of the Conneaut
harbor, thereby securing the only unoccu
pied port on the south shore of Lake Erie.
The balance of the scheme, as outlined by
a stockholder in the Pittsburg, Sheuaugo
and Lake Erie Bailroad, is for the Pennsyl
vania Bailroad Company to oust the afore
said Lase Shore and Lake Erie Bailroad,
and thereby monopolize the Western Penn
sylvania coal and oil field completely, as
well as Conneaut harbor.
.JOSHUA'S L0KG DAY,
Prof. Totten, of Ynle, Fianres Ont the Dato
of tbe Historical Conjunction.
New York Tribune.
Alter many years of close calculation,
brought at last to a successful clore, Prof.
Totten, of Yale, announces that he has
identified the conjunction of the sun and
moon which marked Joshua's long day.
Beckoning back from the present new moon,
June, 1890, the Beth-horon conjunction took
place in inidheavens at 11:13 a. m. exactly
3,435 full lunar years ago; or, reckoning for
ward, anno mundi, it happened at the
winter solstice ot 2555 A. M., which was the
365th Sabbatic year, and this, in fact, when
properly understood, is the key to the whole
system of lunar chronology followed by the
aDcient nations.
Mr. Totten states that his calculations
point with absolute certainty to the fact that,
then and there, at tne time of this remark

A Monson, Me., man was quietly fish
ing for suckers on tbe shore of a pond tbe
other day when be was astonished to see a big
fish float along by him. Not being prepared
for such large game he pulled bis line out and
was going to let It go by. Tbe fish, however,
probably seeing tbe moving bait, made a jump
and landed right at tbe man's feet. It was a
pickerel weighing 2J pounds.
