"Truly the sun do move!"
"Who eTer would have thought that Gentle
Jeems Galvin, the old Pittsburg war-horse,
would get three nits in one game? The old
man broke his record yesterday, sure. The
way he sailed into the hit market -was a cau
tion, and he fattened his average by several.
He is becoming somewhat of a sprinter, too,
and came near stealing a base on several oc
casions. At. one time he did make a bard
run and got second, when Carroll got a base
on balls and crowded him off first.
It was a great slugging match, and as
Hanlon's beauties had 4 good supply of
sticks on hand, they proceeded to hit hard
whether it broke the bats or not. Doubles and
tnpples sizzling hot were sent to all quarters
of the patch, and the boys ran bases like race
horses. Brooklyn also cot up on her toes and
hustled, but it wasn't to be, and at the toot of
the trumpet Our Own were announced the vic
tors. It was not a bloodless victory, however,
as Pitcber Galvin tried to stop a hot one with
bis hand and it opened up communication with
bis gnre.
Alter Pittsburg had earned a couple of runs
in their half ot the first inning the cranks
nowiea and teit nappy, out wnen ward s men
had quit a gloom o'erspread the countenances
of the "fans." Five runs had been scored
mainly on errors. In fact, four of Pittsburg's
errors were made in this inning. But in the
fourth inning tbe local men thumped out six
runs, and after that "all ent merry as a mar
riage bell." Wey hing retired from the box and
SoMders succeeded him, which slightly im
proved matters, as only seven hits and four
runs were rained off him in the remainder of
tbe game. The greatest surprise of tbe game
was the work of Beckley. he having two very
raw errors. Fields had two wild throws and
two passed balls to his credit or rather dis
credit. Ward also had a couple of errors, but
be is really not in condition to play ball. Cor
coran's mistake was a wild throw that went
past tbe grand stand and apparently was going
around to seethe turnstile, allowing Andrews
to score from tbird and Bauer went all the way
around. Attendance 1,411. The score:

Bkookltn, August 4. Manager Heckcr, of
tbe Pittsburg (N. L.) Club, gave Gibson another
chance in tbe box to-day in tbe game played
with the Brooklyns. He was hit quite freely,
but bis wild, delivery was responsible for five
runs, four being charged to bases on balls and
one to a wild pitch. He was very poorly sup
ported, especially by Decker. Miller and Wil
son. Keeker's play at first base was an un
utual one. The Brooklyns again played a strong
fleldinc game and batted hard and often. The

Corrlgan Brings Grave Charges Against
Chicago's Blnvor nnd Police.
Chicago, August 4. Corporation Counsel
Hutchinson this morning made application be
fore Judge Horton for an order to compel Ed
ward Corrlgan to put on file his bill asking for
an injunction against the mayor and chief of
police to restrain them from interfering with
pool selling on bis West Side race track. In his
bill, Corntran charged that the mayor and
chief of police were corruptly in collusion with
tbe down town pool sellers.
The bill was taken before a master in chan
cery, who recommended that tbo injunction is
sue but was never filed with the clerk of the
court, so that the defendants had no means of
joining issue. Judge Horton expressed some
doubt as to his powers in tbe premises, but
finally decided to cite the complainant to show
cause why he should not be punished for con
tempt for trifling with tbe court. The matter
will come up on Wednesday.

E1TEE INTELLIGENCE.
The Hot Weather .Slakes Mutters nt the
Wharf Very Slow.
The weather yesterday had the effect of mak
ing matters about the wharf very slow. No
one was inclined to exert himself, except when
it was absolutely necessary, and on this ac
count business was not as brisk as it has been
lately, but notwithstanding that the weather
was not suitable fordoing bnslness on a lively
scale, the three packets out did fairly well, cku
sldering these drawbacks. The day passed
without anything of any note happening. If
there is a continuation of the weather of yes
terday, It is more than possible that the six
feet of slack water now in the pool may he
dried up by the sun's hot rays. It has as yet
shown no marked decline, however, and the
river men fervently pray that the water now in
tbe stream will be left there by (lid Sou At

Braddock Borough Councils Decide
in Favor of Home Industry.
A VERY LIVELY TIME LAST HIGET.
Men Denounced as Liars, Corrupt and
Utterly Unregenerate.
WINNERS TOLERABLY TIGHTLY TIED
irctOH A STAT COBRESltlDENT.
Bbaddock, August 4. Braddock
Borough Council met to-night, and the hall
was not only crowded, but the crowd roosted
.o the full capacity of the winding stairway.
The dense mass and vitiated atmosphere
were purgatorial snggestions of the hotter
wave expected when the ordinance granting
right of wa y through the borough to some
traction company should come up. Burgess
Shallenberger fanned himself for a time,
listening to the strains of a barrel organ.
The owner thereof, however, got closer by
degrees, and finally what space was left in
the council room was filled by the melody-of
Annie Rooney and other popular tunes.
The Burgess'could stand it no longer and
ordered the sergeant-at-arms to remove Mr.
Kontercoli, which he did, and a petition
signed by a, great many people was read
asking Councils to foster home indnstry.
Messrs. Hible and Holtzman collided on
a matter of parliamentary law, which was
the only intimation for a considerable time
that there was a volcano smoliering in the
hall. They were the members who called
each other pet names at the previous meet
ing.
THOUGHT IT PADDED.
A list of petitioners asking that tbe home
company, the Braddock and Turtle Creek,
be given tbe right of way, was presented,
and Mr. "Holtzman insinuatedthat it had
been padded. Mr. Holtzman fought tbe
ordinance in its various stages, and was finally
called to order by 'Squire Holland. Holtz
man replied by stating that five to four were
cowaroly, using their strength to gag discus
sion. He argued that bribery or no bnberv,
the J5.C0O offered by the Pittsburg, Braddock
and Turtle Creek Railway Company oucht to
bet accepted. He moved the insertion ot tne
word "Pittsburg," and the acceptance of tbe
bribe, if a sale to the highest bidder were to bo
so termed.
Mr. Dible said the $5,000 was intended for the
corruption of enough members of Councils to
put tbe measure through and was only offered
tbe borough when the bribe tailed. He said a
member had been followed and pressed to
name the size of the check he wanted for his
vote.
- As Mr. Dible looked at Mr. Holtzman while
talking the latter raised the point of order
that he must address the Chair. Tbe Burgess
ruled the point well taken, and Mr. Dible pro
ceeded to Bay that if tbe member advocating
the Pittsburg, Braddock and Turtle Creek
Railway could have gotten the measure
through without showing his hand he would
have pocketed the $5,000 and the offer to the
bnroucb would not have been beard of.
Finally Mr. Dible said that a member of Coun
cil bad been threatened with loss ot bis place
If he didn't vote right.
Mr. Holtzman got his war paint on again and
insisted that Holland should not address him.
but the Chair, and when tbe latter retaliated
by stating that he was addrestlngaU, and es
pecially some people.Mr. Bruman. a good man,
who weighs at least 200 pounds, sprang to his
feet and said be had never been offered a cent
and he'a knock the man down who said be
had.
HINTS OP SPECULATION.
Mr. Holtzman said there were but two mem
bers in tbe home company; they had made an
affidavit to that effect, and he insinuated what
some others hold, that they were in for specu
lative purposes, and would sell out. Continu
ing, he ridiculed those business men who said
they didn't want a railroad to Pittsburg and
intimated tbat they weren't deuce high if tbey
couldn't hold their trade against Pittsburi-.
Ho further charged them with belnc people
who would start a company store, "a curse to
the town." "Why throw away this $5.000f
I'm sure the town needs it; besides, Mr. Mellon
isn't interested. Call it bribery or what yon
like, I don't caie."
Mr. Speer No money was ever offered me
and my position is not at stake. Thunders of
applanse from the lobby.
Mr. Holland The gentleman from the First
ward speaks very flippantly, but 1 tbink it a
serious matter, and also that a corporation or
anyone elso so enzaged should be criminally
prosecuted. Continuing at some lenetb in
this strain, Mr. Holland finally said tbat, while
the home company did not profess to be able to
build tbe road, it would eirs the citizens of the
town a chance to buy stock.
About this time Messrs. Dible and Holtzman
left their seats and rushed together into tbe
center of the ball, bnt It wasn't for the purpose
of sbakine hands. TheBurcess attempted to
use bis oil can, but each disputant insisted
he had as good a right to be personal. Tbe
Burgess,ln lieu of a gavel, knocked tbe stuffing
ont of a Bible and a book of gospel bynins. bnt
still the lie. After he threatened to call an
officer, tbe motion of Mr. Dible that the ordi
nance be put on third reading, and final
passage prevailed 6 to 4, with Mr. Holtzman's
amendment knocked out.
Mr. Holtzman's power as an obstructor was
now shown to good' effect. He moved to
amend so as to allow no sidings or switches.
This caused a long fight, but finally prevailed
and Mr. Holtzman slung a taunt or two into
the faces of Messrs. Dible and Holland. Holtz
man next proceeded to attack tbe ordinance in
anotherrespectand succeeded In requiring that
the cars begin to run at 6 o'clock A. M. instead
of 7. and that tbey must run at least every 15
instead of every 30 minutes. He almost lost
his temper, however, at his want of support,
stating that Holland's backers gave bim
pointers, while even Borongh Solicitor Steven
son allowed bim (Holtzman) to fight his own
battle.
A FURTHER PROPOSITION.
He further proposed to amend by requiring
the successful company to begin operations in
60 days. The ground was fought over Inch by
lncb, and finally Mr. Holland imputed in
potent malice to Mr. Holtzman.
Holtzman I firmly believe the gentleman
knowns be Is not telling ttie truth.
Holland I firmly believe the gentleman from
the First ward lies, but I consider him so far
below me that
For the next five minutes nothing conld be
made out except "lie," "bribery," etc., and the
Burgess completed tbe demolition of the Bible,
but Holtzman scored another victory, requir
ing the successful company to begin work in 60
days. On his next amendment Holtzman,
though knocked ont on a point of order tbat he
was essaying to make a third speech, succeeded
in carrying his point, knocking out the 60 days'
grace allowance the company in case it could
not get Its electrical appliances, motors, etc.,
within a year. He next moved postponement
for two weeks, to give tbe citizens a chance to
act, stating that the petition presented was
cooked. He was knocked out, 5 to 4. on this,
as also on a motion to recommit The bad
blood engendered showed itself in the subse
quent rontine business.
The matter has left somewhat of a bad taste
in tbe month of the people generally. Some
are lond In their denunciation of the loss of

pleased to call themselves our "competitors." Are we making 10 and 15 per cent dis
counts? Our'

"It Disagrees With Me."
A common remark. If you take Tutt's Pills,
you can eat anything you like and feel no bad
effects. They act specifically on the liver,
stomach and bowels, causing a tree flow ot
gastrio juice, which is essential to good diges
tion and regular bowels
DON'T FEAR NOW.
Rev. R. Burts, of Manata, Fla.. says: "Tntt's
Pills are held in high repute as a Liver Regula
tor. I hardly know bow we conld get along
without them. Chills and fever have lost tbeir
dread. Our people take one or two doses of
tbe Pills, and follow it with lo grains of Qui
nine, divided iu three doses, during the day.
The chill never returns.
