Brooklyn, July 19. Another came was
added to the Brooklyn Kational League
Clab victories to-day, when they defeated
the "Pittsburg club at "Washington Park be
fore 2.390 persons. Although the home
team gained the lead at the outset the final
result was in doubt until the seventh in
ning, as the visitors played a strong game
tip to that inning, and on two or three occa
sions it was thought that thcy-woultf forge
afaesd. In the seventh the home team made
four earned runs.
The visitors presented their good find. Baker,
in the box. while Carruthexs did that work for
the home team. The latter was very puzzling.
as can be seen from the fact that live bits were
tbe visitors' total for tbe game. Baker was
also effective in all but one iumng, the seventh,
when four of tbe seven hits the Brooklyns se
cured were bunched. In this inning Pmkney
vccomplisbcd one of bis frequent feats of late
by getting iu a home run, although Osborn was
right in front of tbe ball as it rolled toward
hlin, but when be put his bands ont for it, it
bounded to one side and went down in the tall
n?8" in left held, thus letting iu two runs,

Ccmpra injur.
ClfiCAQO, July 19. President Spalding, of
tbe Chicago League club, who Las just returned
from New York, where he saw most of the
League managers, said in an interview to-day:
"The League is as solid to-day as it was in
1SS5. There is positively no danger that in any
way will it weaken or show a shaky front.
The Pittsburg people assure me that ihey do
not desire help from anyone and will play the
season out as ceitainly as they are
in the business. In Brooklyn everything is
calm and serene. 'We are ready to stay right
with you, Brooklyn said to me. "this year, aud
the next and the year after. We are certain of
success, and we don't even complain of busi
ness thus far. In Philadelphia the League
men are as happy as the sparrows that chirp
and chatter in Fairmount Park. The New
York clnb is as solid as rock, notwithstanding
all reports to tbe contrary, and needs help
from no one. But it is in Boston that the
Leagne people feel particularly happv. They
are fleligbted with the prospects, and feel that
the turn in the tide has come and they feel that
they can steer their boat prettily out of the
harbor."
"What did Day tell you about Ewlng's amal
gamation schemeT"
"1 spoke of that matter to Mr. Day. and he
assured me that the printed reuoru concern
ing the Cincinnati interview were the Brother
hood's side of it He had a conversation with
wing,but the talk was general and not ex
actly to the point purported. There is no more
danger of amalgamation than there is of the
sky falling."

rSPXCIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DOIPATQR.I
New XOKK, July 19. The Pittsburg
Players' League team fared badly at the
hands of the New Yorks in the late series.
They were subjected to another bad beat
ing to-day, Morris being pounded all over
the lot. The game was replete with good,
strong batting. There cannot be a great
deal said about the fielding, although Rich
ardson, Shannon, Connor, Bobinson aud
Carroll completed some unusually pretty
plays. Tbe errors of both teams proved to
be very costly. Fumbles of. Fields and Maul
gave tbe New Ynrks three runs In tbe first
inning. Visner's fnmble gave them another In
tbe third. A base on balls did tbe work in
the fifth. Morris' fumble, two bases on balls
and Robinson's mistake resulted iu four more
unearned runs. A passed ball gave the visitors
their first run. Hanlon gave a good exhibition
of bae stealing and scored three of tbe seven
runs. Attendance 2,268. Tbe score:

Morehead, Who Won the Tourney,
Also Takes the Challenge Cap.
A DAT OF SCIENTIFIC TENNIS.
The Trophy Changes Hands After Some
Magnificent Work.
A PKOBABLE COMING LADIES' ETBNT
TENNIS as it
should be played was
on the programme at
the beautiful Craig
street grounds of the
Pittsburg Tennis club
yesterday and it drew a
large and fashionable
audience to witness the
final event of the most
successful tennis tour
nament ever given in
this part of tbe State.
Fully 500 people were
on the grounds, and
iTorehead in his apparently every gen
oacifc stroke. tleman and lady, pres
ent was an enthusiastic devotee of lawn
tennis. Looking from the grounds in front
of the rlub house it was a beautiful picture.
The little hill above the courts doing duty as
an amphitheater was crowded with the friends
and admirers of the gentlemen who were to
contest for championship honors.
'There was not the least partisanship shown,
even though the friends of Mr. Morehead were
in the majority. In fact, if there was any, it
was on the side of Mr. Cristy, as he was given
every encouragement possible in the way of
applause.
Wben tbe men entered the courts they were
Heed Waiting for a Lobbed Ball.
greeted with great enthusiasm. A few min
utes were spent in preliminary practice, while
umpires and scorer were chosen. Then the
battle royal began. Morehead is, without
doubt, the most quiet and cool-beaded man
that has been seen at tennis in Pittsburg. His
manner was unconcerned and he looked and
acted like he was confident of victory, but that
if he lost it was no great matter. On the other
hand, Cristy was nervous but apparently de
termined to do his best to defend bi3 Tight to
tbe beautiful championship emblem.
Play was called at 430, Morebead serving.
His work at tbe outset was beautiful and
Cristy could not solve his masterly serves. Tbe
result was a "love game" at the very start.
Cristy wa3 steadier in the following game, and
while Morehead won, it wa not quite so over
whelming a victory, the score being game 30.
Another "love game" was added when More
head made bis second serve. Tbe fourth
proved better and a 'vantage game resulted,
going to duce twice, but Cristy's nervousness
still kept him from taking the game. Tbe
fifth game was the finest in the set. and though
Morehead continued his splendid serving
Cristy matched him well and it wasrmade a
'vantage game, three duces being made before
Morehead scfired the point. The sixth and
last game proved comparatively easy and More
bead won the set 6 love.
From tbe opening to the close of the second
set the most magnificent tennis was shown. It
was replete with beautiful line drives and
splendid returns. Both the contestants were
on their mettle, ana they seemed to enthuse
with tbe crowd, as it was one continual round
of applause from the opening to the close of
tbe set. Cristy here showed some of the fine
Fay and Buch in Doubles.
work that made him the champion last year
and woo him the cup. Whde it could be seen
that be was nervous, he played a rushing, bril
liant game that won the hearts ot the specta
tors, and his every play was greeted with ap
plause. And though Morehead's work is
usually regular and quiot, he seemed to catch
the spirit of tbe hour, and showed even his
best fiiends that he could do better than they
thought. .
This set was tbe hardest contested of the
game, and Cristy's swift, brilliant work for tbe
time held full sway, and he came off tbe field a
winner. The fifth and sixth games wre "love
games" for Cristy, and he for the time over
shadowed Morehead's work, but in the seventh
game tbe tables were turned, and Morehead
got a "love game." Tbe other games were
more evenly played, but Cristy eventually won
bv7-5.
The two following sets Cristy's work toned
down, and while there was no want of brilliant
playing and beautiful stops of apparent Bate
drives ny botb men. tbe work did not compare
with that In the previous Bot. Morehead con

better tbe longer he played, while Cristy, as be
warmed up. seemed to lose his head, and More
head was able to keep him running all over the
conrt at will.
In the fourth and last set the style of play
was ar times or the brilliant order, but It could
be plainly seen that Cristy's rushing rork was
no match for the cool, calculating style of
play presented by Morehead. While the
lormers work made the most brilliant showing
at times, the latter proved the better general,
and the hard drives made by Cristy were
easily stopped, even wben tbey looked like
they were sure to mako a point.

No sooner bad the last set closed than Mr.
Morehead's friends attempted to close In upon
him, but he was too quick for them and
showed his abilities as a sprinter. He made
bis escape to the clnb house, but his friends
captured bim there and returned him to the
Court on their shoulders. He modestly re
ceived congratulations, bnt positively refnsed
to mike a speech, and shortly returned to the
club honse.
S. W. B. Morebead is a small-sized and ex
tremely quiet young man of 20 years. He is a
son of Major Morebead, the iron manufac
turer. He has just finished his junior year at
Yale. Morehead has been playing tennis for
fire years and has greatly Improved over last
year's form. sBefore playing tennis be did a
great deal of sprinting and evidently has uot
forgotten bis old training: He worked bard
for the beautiful tennis trophy and deserves all
he received.
Marshall Cristy, the dethroned champion. Is
a resident of SewicUey and a member of the
Sewickley Tennis Club. He Is a splendid tennis
player and will doubtless be after the cham
pionship again next season.
Lack of tennis facilities and tbe inconven
ient distance from their homes, lead three
members of the Pittsburg Cricket Club to form
a club devote'd exclusively to lawn tennis, and
so was organized in the early pare of 1&S8 the
Pittsburg Tennis Club.
At first it wa3 expected to belbut a small
local club and few invitations were sent out,
but as players from tbe city and Allegheny
saw and used the courts, applications for mem
bership came in until July, 1888, 150 names were
enrolled. The dues for new members were
then raised to 10, only one person joining
after that.
The first vear seven elav courts were laid out.
care being taken to have them built and sur
faced as perfectly as possible, and it nas Deen
and is now tbe boast of tbe club that it
possesses the finest courts in this part of the
country, one or two eaualinEr the best of the
Eastern courts, if the nnlnion of persons baying
used the best of the Eastern courts can be re
lied upon.
Tbe grounds are beautifully situate on Craig
and Neville streets and Center avenue, tbe
fourth side being bounded by tbe lovely woods
oi me Aspinwaii place, adouc to acres are
embraced in the grounds, dotted here and there
by large and small trees and traversed by two
small streams. Tbe club house, a long, low
frame structure, nestles among a grouu of
trees between tbe two run3, about 100 yards
from tbe courts. It contains four rooms,
the western end for lady members,
the center for tbe gentlemen, while tbe
eastern end is divided into a bathroom
and a room for the use of the ground-man.
Seldom is sucb a really wild, naturally beau
tiful spot found as these grounds, the place
Itself proving almost as attractive to many as
the courts.
Seven tournaments were given in 18S8, two
open, two clab and tbree mixed doubles, all
developing good tennis.
In 18S9 the membership list showed about 123
paid members and about 6U from tbe year
before, who neither paid nor resigned. This
season more tournaments were given, among
them the first annual tonrnament. during
which the Grogan Challenge cud was played
for and won by Mr. Marshall Cristy, of the
Sewickley club. This proved to be the largest,
and best tournament ever held in tbe western
part of tbe Siate, entries from Altoona, New
Castle, Oil City, Beaver, Saltsburg, Indiana,
Sewickley and Allegheny competing.
So far this year the paid members number
over 100, witb many applications for member
ship. The dues were altered again to So for
ladie3 and 910 for gentlemen,
Tbe membership list contains now almost
every well-known local tennis player, both la
dies and gentlemen, except, of course, the
Sewickley players, who have their own club
and facilities.
The names of four ministers, 11 doctors and
probably 30 lawyers have appeared upon the
members' roll, showing that tennis is enjoyed
by the professional men as much as by the col
lege boy, though the latter does generally win
over tbe former.
This club has never been incorporated, but it
has been so successful that a scheme is now on
foot to organize it into a Btock company and
make greater improvements on tbe grounds.
A large and splendidly-built cluDbouse is now
pictured in the minds of many of the enthusi
astic members ot the cluD, and there is every
chance that such a building may be had.
The club has a large number of lady mem
bers, vho are expert tennis players, and the
probabilities are tbat a tonrnament open to la
dles only will be held tbe last of August or
first of September. There are a great many
ladies in this section of tbe State wbo are
anxious for such a tournament lor champion
ship honors. It is now in order for some public-spirited
business man to donate a champion
ship emblem for the ladies to battle for, and
tbe tournament would be an assured fact and
a ereat event.

THE H0MEW00D RACES.
Horses Arriving Daily lor Ifae Big Event at
the Driving Park Tula Week Everything
Pointa to on Excellent Sleeting.
One by one the great horses to compete in
the races at Homewood Driving Park this
week are arriving. By this evening tbe
thoroughbred speeders will all be safely
stabled and ready for the great contests on the
track.
James Goldsmith arrived last night with his
string' Ho has this season the finest looking
and best conditioned horses in the country.
Pamlico, who reduced bis record from 2:2S to
2:17 at Philadelphia last week, is prepared to
send his record to a much lower notch this
week if necessary, and there is no doubt but
that he will De pushed ahead. Dawson, who is
entered in the great Flour City $10,000 stake
race at Rochester, n ill go in tbe 223 class here.
Ho is a great horse and no mistake.
John Turner, who also arrived last night, has
five horses in bis string, including Harry
Wilkes, 2:13, wbo ought to beat his record at
Homewood, as be did 2:18 with ease over a half
mile track at New Haven on the Fourth. Dal
las, Pittsburg's favorite "pacer, who reduced
his record to 2:17 at Philadelphia last week,
will of course start.
John Spear, the veteran, was also one of the
arrivals last evening. He has Almonarch, the
2:17 pacer, Charles Friel In the free for all
pace and Nobby, 2:17, in the tree for all trot.
Willis Laird, the successful young driver,
who was out at Senator Stanford's farm a few
months ago, is here with bis string of horses
and feels confident of taking some money.
Others have arrived and the track at Home
wood is alive witb horses exercising.
Lem TJIman, tbe official programmer, says
tho betting and attendance at Philadelphia
last week was the best ever known there. He
says the interest in races is growing daily, and
that Pittsburg never saw such a list of entries
as will be shown at the meeting.
Sure it is that tbe best horses of the country
will be here, and the meeting will be a grand
success.

Spokane Falls, Wash., July 19. A sensa

paper office. J) egotlations have been for several
days pending for. a prize fight between Patsy
Mulligan and Jimmv Casey. They met this
morning at the Spokesman office by agreement
to settle on the details for tbe proposed fight.
While talking matters over quietly Billy Lynn,
a friend of Casey, started a quarrel with Mulli
gan. The latter knocked bim down, and be
was put out of tbe office. He went around to a
back door, and coming in behind Sullivan shot
Mm twice. The wounds are considered mortaL
Ed Smith, another pugilist, was sbot in the

CALEDONIAN SPORTS.
A Day of Scotch Games "Will Prob
ably be Given in Pittsburg.
CLANS MAKING ARRANGEMENTS.
ABaceWith Priddy, McClelland, Cannon
and Grant Entered.
PBESBST DOINGS OP LOCAL EUN5EES
The probabilities are tbat this city will be
given s day of genuine Caledonian sports,
as arrangements are now being made for
such an affair, to take place the first week
in September, immediately after the jjames
at Philadelphia.
Kathel Kerr, who so ably managed the
sports at Schenley Park on the Fourth, has
made a proposition to the Clans of Pitts
burg and Allegheny to arrange a day of
this kind, so much enjoyed by the average
Scotchman. The Clans will decide the
matter at their next meeting, on
the evening of Monday, July 28.
The majority favor the idea, and
there is little doubt but tbat tbe
events will come off at the above named time.
Should everything come out right the day
games will consist of about lorty-flve events.
Tbe greatest athletes, pipers and dancers of
the world will be present to compete for tbe
excellent purses to be offered.
PROBABLE PROGRAMME.
The events will consist of piping, different
styles of Scotch dancing, throwing heavy
weights, pitting the shot, wrestling, 100 yards.
220 yards, 410 yards, half mile, mile, three and
five mile foot races, and numerous other ath
letic games such as bigh and longamp8, vault
ing, eta
Purses for the events will be large enough to
draw out all tbe good men in tbe country.
Among tbe runners who will doubtless enter
will be E. C. McClelland, Pete Priddy and Ed
Nikirk. of this city; Pete Cannon, of England,
and Grant, of Boston. Of course, many others
from all over the country will be expected to
enter.
Mr. Kerr will also write to Darbv. of England.
the champion all round jumper of tbe world.
This man jumps 20. inches higher than any
other man in the profession and bis all-round
work is truly wonderf uL Mr. Kerr believes it
would be no ereat trouble to induce Darby to
cross the ocean and try his fortunes among the
Americans.
A SPORTING CITY.
There is no reason why such a class of sports
would not draw a great crowd in Pittsburg.
They are common in tbe East, and no place has
more true lovers of athletic sports than has tbe
Iron City. Pittsburg has some of the best run
ners of tbe world, and, in fact, has produced
men wbo rank high among the first in almost
every class of sport. With Mr. Kerr as man
ager of such an affair there is no doubt but
that it would be a great success. His idea is to
bave the games come off at Exposition Park,
which would accommodate the largest crowds
of spectators and at the same time be a good
place for tbe games.
At present Pete Priddy is in the East taking
in such events witb good success. Nikirk and
McClelland are also preparing to go East tor
the fall runs. The latter will doubtless travel
under tbe management of Mr. Kerr, wbo be
lieves McClelland Is a wonderful runner and
tbat he will improve under bis management.
