In faot, there is no record to show that it is not the only errorless game ever played in Pittsburg. Be this as it may, the spectators were well satisfied that they had received a lull quarter's worth of the sport. The attendance arose to the number of 1,014 people, and the enthusiasm manifested made it sound as Recreation Park used to sound he fore the cruel war began. A GAME OF FEATURES. The came abonnded with feature plays. In one inning Pittsburg's outfield each made a cir cus catch, and the New Yorkers in the same territory did work that would discourage any aggregation of batsmen. LaRoque played a wonderful second base, even alter he split his finger in the third inning. He made a catch just back of second base that was considered a sure hit. Berger played short in a manner to show that he will be all right in that position as soon as he gets his naturalization papers. But the greatest feature of the frame was the magnificent pitching of Kirtly Baker, the star. For five innings not a hit was made, and but 16 men had faced him, one going to base on balls. In the sixth inning Tiernan hit lor two bases, but went no further. In the seventh Denny made a two-bagger, and was sacrified to third, but the next man struck out and the Inning closed. The fourth and last New Yorker tbat went to first was Captain Glasscock, who was hit by a pitched ball. The two following men went out on a fly at first and the jig was up. Pittsburg got two bits in the first inning, bnt both men were caught at third. The second proved better and one run was secured. Berger got a base on balls, went to third on a paised ball and scored on a hit by Kelty. They went out in one. two, three order in the third. In the fourth Decker hit for a single. Be went to second on Berger's hit and to third on Becker's single, which sent Berger to second. Decker scored and the others advanced on Kelty's sacrifice, and Baker was hit by a pitched balL again filling the bases. Sunday was given a base on balls, forcing Berger home. Miller flew out. In the sixth Berger made a double, but His three followers flew out. In the seventh LaRoque cot a three-bagger and scored on passed balls. The bide went out one, two, three in the eighth and ninth.

Colonel John L Sogers left for Cincinnati, to-day, to join the Philadelphia National sLeague team.. Before leaving Colonel Rogers said be didn't believe there was any truth In the story told by Buck Ewing. So far as the Philadelphia club was concerned it was ahead of the season and was able to take care of itself no matter what happens. The Phillies have no intention of joining the Playen' League next year or any other year; in fact. Colonel Rogers did not be lieve there would be any Players' League next vear. and this talk of Ewing's was one of the expiring bluffs, which must be expected now that the life f the new organization was be ginning to ebb away. Mr. Rogers laughed at the Idea of amalgamation. The Players' League would jump at such a chance," said he, but it will never have it. The National League outlined its policy at the be ginning of the season and there will be no 'de viation from it no matter what happens. AH the League clubs have taken care of themselves so far, but in case any of them need help before the season closes the League's treasury will be open to them. We are in this fight to the death and we will win. That's sure. Brooklyn, 13 Buffalo, 3. Buffalo, July 8. The Buffalos lost to-day's game without an effort. Attendance 213. Score: BUFFALO.

The Dis patch correspondent asked bim particularly what he thought about the financial outlook. He replied "We're drawing fully as many people as we expected to when we started out. We did not think we'd make any money the first year. The Cleveland Club may lose some money, bnt I guess all the others will icome ont even or "How about BuffaloT" "Well, they've got a very cheap team there. They can play to al most nobody at all and still get through all right. Now yon take Sam Wise, and White, and Rnwe out of the Buffalos, and who've they got 7 xnoooov. Ana sun tney are drawing pret ty fair crowds. They beat ns two games last week and that helped their attendance some. I don't think Buffalo will be as ant to lose as the Cleveland clnb." When asked what he thought of the plan to play the Fourth ot July games scheduled for Buffalo at Boston he said: al "I'm against doing anything of the kind be cause it would Injure the attendance for the rest of the season. That's what has hurt the Pittsburg League team." Referring to tbe Brotherhood pennant race, Ewing said: "There are three clubs in the race. They are New York. Boston and Chicago. Ward's team can't finish above fourth place, and Philadelphia may crowd them ont of that. Buffalo is a-sure tail ender. The Cleveland Brotherhood team would be a pretty good one if It was stronger in the catching department, but it's weak there and that hurts tbe whole team." TBI-STATE LEAGUE.

When La Blanche refused to fight me and set to work making matches with inferior men, tbey weakened on bim. Then: all are sore at bis re fusal to meet and give rue satisfaction. His actions have convinced me that be never in tends to meet me again, and that I will never get a chance to wipe ont that single defeat."

Mrs. Rein Liked Theater Going Much Belter Than Her Husband The Forsaken Man All Broken TJp Over Ills Wild's Defec tion His Search for Hor. No clew has yet been found to the wife of Jacob Kein, who is supposed to have eloped with John BoSj from Beltzboover borough, Monday night. Kein was seen by a reporter of The Dispatch, yesterday, and showed visible signs of regret at his wife's desertion. Mr. Rein stated that tbe reports about him abusing his wife were lalse, and were given out by malicious per sons. Mr. Eein stated, between stifled sobs, tbat be was willing to forgive his wife if she would return. He said: "My wife was fond of going to theaters and 'balls, and I never liked to go to such places with her, but Boff would come to my house and take her, to which I, of course, objected. This was why I quarreled with her, and because 1 refused to let her to go with Boff, she left me. She did not own any property, and did not transfer any to me. The property belonged to her mother, but was in her name. This she told me I could sell, in the letter sent to me after she left" He stated also that the report that his wife bad sued him before Alderman Bein hauer for cruelty was not correct. This proved true noon investigation being made. He placed all his money in the bank in bis wife's name, but she did not take any away with her. He is almost certain tbat Boff is with bis wife, irom tbe tact that she packed up all her wearing apparel in a box made by him last week. He will make an effort to biing his wife back. He has bad copies of her picture taken, which he will send to the police, with a photograph of Boff. Mrs. Boff will sell the handsome residence in which they lived. The only money she has now is what Kein paid her lor carpenter work done by her husband. This was paid her after the couple had disappeared. Elected the Teachers.

Local Boards and Advisory Methods Eec ommended as a Means of SETTLING ALL VEXATIOUS DISPUTES tSPECIAL TEL EGBAM TO THE DISPATCH.1 New York, July 3. The first business before to-day's session of the American Boilermakers' Convention was tbe organiza tion of local boards to control local affairs. In introducing the matter the President alluded to the strike now in progress in Pittsburg. He said that, a matter of fact, the boiler making industry in that city is paralyzed, as bnt two out of 19 shop are running, and more than 1,600 men are idle. The men struck for nine hours for a day's work with pay for 10. The only two shops which granted the demands of the men are Dougherty & Morrison and James Bees & Sons. Mr. Gasstang, of St. Louis, made a spicy speech during which he said he was glad that the manufacturers of Pittsburg were experiencing a little of the same kind of a time as he had iu St. Louis. The speaker said his shop was known as a "scab" shop, and he was a "scab" himself, which state of affairs, in bis opinion, was a healthy thing when taken in connection with a running sore. LOCAL BOARDS RECOMMENDED. Mr. Douthett then moved that local boards be formed to conduct local affairs, which boards shall work under the direction of the State Board. Tbe speaker said that in Pittsburg the association included all the boiler shops but two. The motion was so amended that local boards are only recom mended to be put into operation. It does not matter whether the boilermakers are members of the association or not. They are recommended to hold advisory meetings to come to some amicable arrangement when ever any trouble is thought to be coming on. Mr. Rohan, of St. Louis, said the associa tion should show the Brotherhood that they wanted to conciliate and affiliate with the workingmen. He believed the time had ar rived when these shops should be made co operative, and if profit-sharing was indulged in the labor problem would be solved. Mr. MacCormack. of Albany, referred to the fact that, 15 or 20 years ago, most men idled away their dinner hour, but to-day tbey spend tbeir leisure time in reading tbe newspapers and storing away knowledge. He spoke about the dnties of the local board and claimed that they were absolutely nec essary for the maintenance of the associa tion, and would materially help the manu facturers by their advice. THE STRIKE SITUATION. In regard to the strike now on iu Pitts burg, Secretary Douthett said that just prior to their leaving for this city a meeting was held, at which it was decided that if the men wanted to strike they could do so. The matter has been discussed quietly among the members of the convention, but no definite action has been taken, and prob ably will not be- until they return to Pitts burg. The President of the Boilermakers Union, learning of the hostile action of tbe convention, sent tho following letter to President Lappan. It was read to-day and Secretary Douthett wired Mr. Curran to come and explain: No. 270 Sppinq Street, New York, July 2. 1800. J To Mr. James Lappan, President of the Boiler makers' Association: Dear Sir I see in tbe papers an account of your convention, and in it yon state that the Brotherhood (International Boilermakers) is arrayed against your association. Now, sir, such is not the case. The Brotherhood of Boilermakers and Iron Shipbuilders of the United States and Canada is organized to ele vate and bring about a better understanding with tbe employer and employe . It your body should deem it advisable, I will appear before you and explain the difference. I am, respectfully, Thomas J. Curban, President National Union. Upon a motion Mr. Curran was given the courtesy of the floor. He was greeted with applause and said that the brotherhood was willing at any time to arbitrate all griev ances. It was not based upon tbe theory tbat they could better themselves by strikes. The order was organized for an educational purpose. He said that the manufacturer had only to look back a few years and see tbe improvement in the trade ot a boiler maker. Speaking of the uniform rate of wages, Mr. Curran said the Brotherhood had wanted such a state of affairs for many years. NO BLACK LIST 'WANTED. He hoped that the association would not carry out their intention of a "blacklist." He said that if such a thing was done it would be tbe death of the organization. The workmen would fight it to the death. In regard to the short work day the speaker said that the repair work aronnd this city was ten, and for new work, nine hours. The brotherhood proposed to reduce each by one hour, and the wages to remain the same. He referred to the strike now on in Pitts burg, and said it was due to the arrogance of the manufacturers, who have been urged to meet the demands ol the men. He claimed that the men would win in a few days, as overtures were now being carried on that would end tbe strike. The brotherhood has not made any demand on the Pittsbuig Locomotive works, and it is said tbat if such a demand is made it will be refused. President Lappan said that the idea tbat the men cannot win their demands are ab surd. He believed, however, that the strike would very likely be referred to arbitrators. He had no fear of the result. The resolntiou to recommend the appoint ment of local boards was put and carried. Secretary Douthett then read his exhaustive report on insurance, which was carried unanimously. NEXT MEETING IN ST. LOUIS. The next order of business was that of choosing a time and place where the associa tion will hold its next annual convention. After a spirited contest, during which the representatives of San Francisco, Chicago, St. Louis and Baltimore made speeches, in viting the delegates to their respective cities, the city of St. Louis was chosen. The time named was the first Tuesday in May, 1891. The report of the Committee on Appren ticeship was then taken up and discussed. Mr. Curran, of the brotherhood, was invited to speak on the subject. Mr. Hammond made a very friendly motion that was greeted with applause. He asked that a committee of the association meet a commit tee of the Brotherhood of Boilermakers to confer on the apprenticeship system. Mr. Duudon opposed the motion, claiming that it would necessitate the appointment of committees in different parts of the country, and he moved that the original report only should be adopted. It was decided, how ever that the report be not adopted now, but tbe whole apprenticeship system be referred back to the committee of the association, and for them to meet a committee of the Boilermakers' Brotherhood. "The conven tion then took a recess at 1 o'clock and wended their way to the Brooklyn Navy Yard, THE APPRENTICE SYSTEM. Only about one-half of the delegates had returned from their visit to the Brooklyn Navy Yard in time to attend the evening session, which began with a discussion of the merits of the Torrey bankruptcy act, now before Congress. The law was ex plained by delegates familiar with it, and Was then laid over until the next meet ing. The report of the committee on the State inspection law was received and adopted, audit was voted that members nse a particular brand or stamp to designate association mannfactnrers. The report on apprenticeship was then taken np and dis cussed for an hour. There was some objec tion to the age prescribed for taking appren tices, and the term ol servitude decided upon, and several motions were made to lay the report over until the next meeting. Pending the discussion George H. Rey nolds, President of the National Steam Fitters' Association, addressed the conven tion. At the conclusion of his address, the report on apprenticeship was laid over until the next meeting to give the committee an opportunity to make some needed changes. THE INSURANCE SCHEME. Tbe report of the Committee on Insur "ance was called for, and before the commit 'tee reported Mr. Hammond had read a let ter from the managers of the American Casualty, Insurance and Security Company suggesting co-operation between the pro posed department of the association and their organization. This was construed to mean that the existing insurance companies did not want the association to institute tbe insurance scheme. The committee reported that it had not been enabled to formulate a plan for the insurance company, and a resolution was offered providing for the election of a board of trustees to arrange the details of the scheme. The board of trustees, under the report, was to consist of ten members, six of whom were to be mem bers of the Executive Committee. The committee suggested tbat tbe new concern be called "The American Boiler Manu facturers' Inspection and Insurance Com pany." An amendment was offered increasing the nnmber of shares to be issued to each mem ber to a number to conform with the number of members, so tbat the stock shall remain in the hands and control of the association. The amendment and resolutions were adopted. The committee, empowered to act, was appointed, and the convention ad journed. BITEB DJTELXIGENCE.

Grand Reunion of tho Society of the Army of tho Momac. ADDRESSED BT GEN. SHEEMAK, Who Gives a Bit of Unwritten History Regarding the Grand Review. BUFFALO SEXT PL.ACE OF MEETING Borland, Me., July 3. The society of tbe Army of the Potomac had a rainy morn ing for the opening of their annual reunion in this city. During the forenoon corps meetings were held in the City Hall. Some of tbe corps were largely represented. Of others only a dozen members or so were present. Secretary of War Proctor was elected President of the First corps. Among the prominent officers who are in attendanco are General Sherman, General F. A. Walker, Hon. Horatio King. General Fitz john Porter, General Selden Connor, Gen eral Collins, Colonel Horace C. King, Gen eral Hodges, General Dickinson, Generals Locke, Clarkson, Beale, Vanviel, Goddard, John W. Corse, General Brodhead, Devens and Howard, also' officers of the war vessels in the harbor. Mayor Melchor, of Portland, welcomed the comrades in an admirable address, which was responded to by General Collis. The mention of tbe names of General Sher man and Hannibal Hamlin by the latter speaker evoked the wildest enthusiasm. The meeting was called to order by General Collis, who presided in place of General Parke. Alter prayer by Kev. Norman Fox, of New York, and music, General Walker delivered the oration, which was an his torical review of the Army of the Potomac, looking backward from the time of its final review, prior to disbandment. GENERAL SHERMAN'S SPEECH. After the oration of General Walker was finished the Chairman introduced General Sherman, who received a prolonged ovation and spoke as follows: Comrades of the Arm y o the Potomac aud Ladles and Gentlemen of Portland: It is not the food we eat that gives health and strength, but tbat .which we digest. It is so with the mind. It is not the books we read, or tbe newspapers either, or even tbe speeches we bear tbat enlarge our understanding but those we comprehend and digest. Now my friends, I have bad a good deal of experience in my life, and have learned since I have been upon this stage that thegrand review in Wash ington terminated when the Army of tbe Po tomac passed. It reminds me of a story Gen eral Taylor is said to bave told to an applicant for office iu Washington who urged his claims from having been at Buena Vista. General Taylor said be had beard of so many things having occurred, tbat al though he thought be was there himself, he bad come to the conclusion tbat he was not there at alL Now 1 have so many fresh memories of that grand review that I think I was there, and I think that review occupied three days. The first day the Army of tbe Potomac had the floor and 1 was upon tbe stage at that time, as 1 am now, taking notes of the posi tions, tuai. a mignc prone Dy them. For if you remember, the Armies of the West and did not have a fair renntation for order, drill and discipline. You got your news of us through rebel sources, and we chased them 1,800 miles into your very camps. They bad not a eiy good opinion of our West ern armies, and we found tbat even tbe author ities at Washington bad not a very good opin ion of our Western armies. They thought we were rather liable to disorder. Now. I assure you, my friends of the Army of the Potomac, we were a better drilled army than you were. I know it, because I was their Commanding General. Now, let me give you A BIT OB PRIVATE HISTORY, which I have not given except to my most inti mate friends. I was on that stand before Meade was, and, indeed, before Pres ident Johnson and the Cabinet had gotten there. Meade came with his staff, as you bave beard described, and as be wheeled into the gate of the White House grounds, up came Custer, and some lady flung bim a wreath one of those circnlar wreaths and in trying to get it his mare made off with him and he went by like a shot. And Custer was not re viewed at all, and his brigade of cavalry would not bave passed muster on the Champ Be Mars in Paris. The horses were good, the men were sublime, but not good-looking for review. Now lour corps passed in succession, and the inter vals between them were too ,'arge. I kept my eyes upon tbem and watched them all the time. And the worst mistake the Army of the Potomac made was that you had two bands loaned you by stay-at-homes in Washington. There were those elegant bauds, designed to play music of the highest order and the late operas. You cnuld not understand them, and I don't blame you for it. You did not keep step. Now, the first duty ot a soldier is to keep step and dress right and keep his eyes to the front. Now a good many of them turned tbeir eyes and beads around like country gawks, looking at tbe big people en the stand. Those are little things. You know tehre are tricks in every trade, my young friends. TRICKS IN WAB TACTICS. I turned to Meade and said: "I am afraid my poor volunteer corps will make a poor appear ance contrasted with your wellfed men." And Meade replied: "Well, Sherman, the people in Washington are now so well disposed toward the army that they will make ail allow ance. You need not be afraid." Well, that evening I got word from General Anger saving if I wanted those two bands, I could have them. I said, "Thank you. I think I will stick to my old bands," and I sent word to all my corporal commanders to be 'careful about intervals, ac cording to tactics, and keep your dress to left toward the reviewing stand, and don't let your men be looking around over shoulders. We will give them plenty of time to see the Capitol and see everything after the review Is over. Let them keep their eyes 15 paces to front, , shoulders square and march in the old accustomed way.' They did so. Well, after tbe reviewing was overl contend that your review was over, but mine was not. The two constituted a thing of magnificent pro- portions,creditabIe to both. As to tbe patriotism within their hearts, as to the principles which moved those great masses of men to a common Eurpose, we need not speak, because history as treated of it for 25 years. But upon tbe simple question of instruction and discipline we can take lessons to the very last day of our lives. Now General Walker, for whom I nave great affection, as well as profound re spect, did not give an account of the cost in human life in furnish ing that bold cavalry, nor the great corps tbat furnished the war with muscle and brain, I do believe, as I do in Him who rules over this, that this country spent $100,000,000 and 100,000 precious lives to teach tbem tho art of war. Now, let your children digest these thoughts well and give credit to all alike, and remember this country extends over the con tinent and is not confined to one part, and that there are good people everywhere. Hon. Hannibal Hamlin was then called for and was greeted with three cheers. He spoke briefly, thanking the society for the reception and expressing pleasure in being present ELECTION OF OFFICERS. An invitation was received to hold the next session at Buffalo, and it was unani mously voted to accept. The'following officers were elected: President, General Selden Connor, ot Maine; Vice Presidents, First Corps. General Ira.M. Hedges, of New York; Second Corps, John D.

Chattanoooa, July 3. The first con vention of the United Confederate Veterans' Association met in Chattanooga to-day, Governor John B. Gordon presiding. All the pnblic buildings and leading business houses were profusely adorned with the Stirs and Stripes.

All dec orations conducted by'tbe Executive Com mutes are in national colors only. Among the inscriptions on the chief street arches are the following: "No more loyal citizens to-day, than the boys who wore the gray." "We wore the gray, but truly say we honor the flag that floats to-day." Ex-Confederate veterans by the thousands are participating in tbe meeting. The ad dress of welcome was delivered by Hon. Ben Wheeler, an ex-Federal soldier, and was re sponded to by General John B. Gordon. The qnestion of organizing the sons of Confeder ate veterans was referred to a committee.

The condition of Lehigh county's fasting woman, Mrs. Adam Wuchter, of South Whitehall, is exciting increased wonder and attention in the medical profession, and among the in- naoitants oi this region. The num ber oft visitors at the modest dwelling occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Wuchter has largely increased within the past fortnight. The doctors now declare that the faster can not survive many aavs. Mrs. Wuchter has taken practically no substantial nourishment for 90 days. On Good Friday, April 4, she tasted food of a solid character for the lost time. Since that time a sup of beef tea, taken at in tervals ot several days, has been her sole source of nourishment. She can't even drink water now, and is failing rapidly. When in normal health, about a year ago, Mrs. Wuchter weighed 136 pounds. Now she weighs less than 55 pounds. Her body has hardly a pound of flesh on it, and when that is consumed, so her physicians say, the end must come. Convulsions rack her withered frame daily. During these spasms her knees draw up to her chin and blood flows from her eves. Her face becomes dreadfully convnlsed and presents a touch ing sight AN END TO TOLLS.
