Ii.) club again defeated the Pittsburg team to-day. Tener was in the box for Pittsburg and King did a like service for the locals. Long John had a slight advantage over his opponent, but his support lost him the game. The Chicagos did not play very brilliantly, bnt they supported King well enough to win. The Chicagos started into the game at a lively pace, and took their lead in the third inning, Darling and Han Ion scored for their respective teams in tbe sec ond inning, and both started with a base on balls. In tbe third Daffy got a show for himself through a ridiculous muff by Hanlon. After O'Netl bad been sent down Ryan got first on a fumble by Knehne and Darling sent both runnors home with a two-base shot to left field. Tben Farmer Dell scored on a passed ball just before Pfeffer was put out. Boyle dropped a single out in right, Williamson followed send ing both across the plate while Fields was chasing Bastian's lone hit. Fields scored for Pittsburg in their half of tbe inning, and Visner made the rounds in tbe fifth. Duffy took tbe firt corner on balls in the seventh. O'Neil followed, when Fields dropped bis long fly bit, and Darling sent both over the plate with a single. Pfener's three bagger sent Darling in. and tbe second base bid scored the last Chicago run when Banlon dropped another fly bit. Three of tbe visitors came borne in the last half of tbe round. Fields was given a base on balls, Visner took first after-a fumble by Bastian, Beckley smashed a hit, and tben all of them were chased over the plate bv a series of singles. Kuebne .scored the last Pittsburg run in the ninth on a base on balls and a bard poke by Robinson. Attendance. 1,911. Tbe score: CHICAGO. B B P X EIFITTSBCHO. K B P A E Daily, r.....

SPECIAL TZXZOBAM TO THX DUFATCIt.l Cleveland, August 11 The tail enders in the League had another struggle for supremacy with Cleveland to-day, bnt the Clevelandltes vanqished their unlucky co-laborers from tbe banks of the Ohio. Big .Mr. Phillips, the gen tleman who bas been referred to as the coal mine twlrler, was in the box for tbe visitors, and finished much better than he started off. The Clevelands began by scoring triplets from the first three innings, and the crowd figured, up a wild and woolly total on that basis. From the fourth Phillips braced up considerably and the slugging ceased. A base mi balls to Gilks in the first, Mc Kean's sacrifice, Smalley's bit, Virtue's single and West's double gave Cleveland its first three runs. Bmalley cleared the bases In the second and three more runs were added to tbe score. In the third inning Beatin's three-bagger was tbe means of giving Cleveland three more rnns. After this thev came in smaller lots. Phillips' single, Becker's trinje, Berger's sacrifice and Ardner's error, with singles by La Roque and Decker, gave Pittsburg Its first three runs. The remainder were scorea on good clean bat ting. The Pittsburg's put up a very ragged game in the field, while the Clevelands played steadily and accurat&y. The score: FITTEBtTRG.

President O'Nell gives tbe following ex planation of tbe canse of tbe suit against tbe local (N. Ii.) club mentioned in yesterday's Dis patch: "The trouble grew out of the transfer of games of the Allegheny club. In the Indian apolis deal it was agreed that Brush should be paid in notes made payable at Washington in equal installments two, three, four and five months. These notes were given in part by each club in proportion to their supposed at tendance during 1890, based upon the attend ance of 1889. Each dub; at the conclusion of every borne game, was to remit to President Young 10 per cent of the gross gate receipts. Under this method It will be noticed that if tbe attendance of one club at borne exceeded its calculated proportion it wonld pay more than the amount set apart for it to pay, the whole transaction to be balanced at the end of tbe year, and so adjusted that each club would pays lis proper share, and no club was to pay more than 10 per cent of iu gate receipts. The Pittsburg club during the season up to this time has transferred five games to Chicago, seven games to Cincinnati, ten games to Phila delphia and six games to Brooklyn, The 10 per cent on these games having been remitted to President Young by the various borne clubs, viz: Chicago. Cincinnati, Philadelphia, and Brooklyn, the Pittsourg club bas received no credit wbatever for the remittances on this ac count. While the amount remitted on ac count of tbese transferred games has been more than enough to pay these notes, President Young claims be has no right to apply tbe money mentioned to tbe Pittsburg notes." Messrs. O'Neil and Nlmick had a meeting yesterday afternoon, and decided not to pay the notes, but to compel the payment from the proper source. Bowever, they will pay the amounts they owe the League on the last home games directly on tbe notes. Jimmy Grar In a League Uniform. Jimmy Gray, the popnlar second baseman of the East End Athletics, leaves this morning to don a Pittsburg National League uniform for to-day's game. Ou Wednesday Sales ha d a finger flroken and was compelled to leave tbe game. This left tbe team very short, and Man ager Becker telegraphed President O'Nell to find blm a man. Be succeeded in securing Gray for one game. Be will probably play sec ond base and La Roqne go to short. Boat joins the team in Chicago, and Miller may then go to short. National League Record. W.

Bus iness was thought of bnt lightly by the ma jority, and only the ladies seemed to devote themselves to work. Banquets and enter tainments were given, not only in Boston, but in many of the neighboring towns, in honor of the visitors. The new Commander in Chief, Colonel Veazey, is making an ex cellent impression, and bids farto become as popular with the boys as was his pre decessor. Aside from the sessions of the National Encampment and the Woman's Belief Corps, the greater part of the Grand Army celebration is over.

Thomas Post, 13, of Cincinnati, and Bichard Allen Post, ot Ohio. At to-day's session of the encampment the report of the Pensions Committee was read. It details the work of its members in secur ing and aiding pension legislation in Con gress, and its successful efforts in regard to the disability pension bill that became a law July 27. "This law," says the report, "while not in the precise form of the bill presented by the committee, preserves the most important feature, and while not just what we asked, is the most liberal pension measure ever passed by any legislative body in the world, and will place upon the rolls all of the survivors of the war whose condi tions of health are not practically perfect." COUGBATtTLATED ON PENSION tVOBK. Hon. C. K. Davis, of Minnesota, and Hon. E. N. Morrill, of Kansas, Chairmen respectively of the Senate and House Com mittees on Pensions, come in for most grate ful mention for services rendered the com mittee, and the G. A.

Comrades li.okmtz, .Burst and Fairchilds, members for successive terms on the committee,announce their desire to with draw from the committee that they will not accept reappointment thereon. Commander Alger announced that a com mittee from the Woman's Belief Corps was in waiting and it was voted to receive the delegation. Mrs. Enowles, the head of delegation, was introduced and was loudly applauded. She made a short speech of congratulation ana sympatny, ana gave some interesting statistics of the prosperity of the Woman's Belief Corps. Commander Alger made a short response expressive of the hearty appreciation by the Grand Army of the work of the corps. The ladies then withdrew. The Committee on the address of the Com mander in Chief presented its report, heart ily commending the address and thoroughly indorsing tbe just policy set forth. The re port heartily approves the high praise given the Belief Corps and Sons of Veterans.

Thousands of Holdlera Mussed on the Frontier Salvador Forcea Assisted by tbe Regulars Cannons Carried 130 Dlllei Over Mountains, on the Backs of Males. Cirr of Mexico, August 14. A letter from Jutiapa, dated July 17, says: Thirty miles from here and 90 miles from Guatemala City are stationed 24 pieces of artil lery and 3,000 Guatemalan troops. Tbe Govern ment's troops are divided Into three divisions. First, an advance guard upon, the frontier of 11.000 men: second, a reserve guard of 4,000 at Jutiapa; thirdly, a force of 5,000 men in Guate mala City. Honduras has upon her frontier a force of 10,000 men. San Salvador has a frontier guard of 5,000 men. Her reserve force is not known. At 10 o'clock this morning General Vallayi cencia, of the Liberal party of San Salvador, with four pieces of artillery and 600men, crossed the river at Bine Bock and joined General Galan, of the Guatemalan army, whose forces consist of 3,000 men and four pieces of artillery. After crossing the river, the San Salvador troops fired upon their countrymen upon the other side and a few shots were exchanged. The Guatemalan troops did not fire a shot. A letter dated Chingo, Guatemala, says: The fight at Bine Bock proves to have been more serions than was at first reported. It seems that some 2,000 Guatemalan troops came to tbe assistance of tho Salvador troops, and the regular troops of General Ezcta drove them back and scattered them, camuring eight pieces of artillery. The defeated troops retired to Jutiapa, their ammunition being exhausted. The pickets of the Guatemalan troops were fire upon at Contepeque. about six miles from here, this morning. Although war bas not yet been declared, a big fight is expected daily, as this is the only point where Ezeta and bis army can enter Guatemala. There are 6,500 troops here, 1,040 more at Contepeque and 3,000 scattered along tbe frontier east from bere. The force here is under command of General Cuyetzano and Captain B.

He had to use 460 mules, besides oxen, to get the guns over one hill. Tbe troops are in good copdltion. and are well armed, work on tho trenches is being pushed rapidly. WHISKY MEN'S LOSS. NEARLY J2,000,000 WORTH OF PROPERTY DESTROYED BY FIRE. Largo Distillery and Other Balldlngs Burned at Louisville Twelve Dlstilllos Firms Puffer Over a Million Gallons of Liqaor liOBt. Louisville, Augnst 14. At 11 o'clock this morning fire was discovered issuing from the bonded warehouse of the Kentucky Distilling Company on Storey avenue, near Frankfort, in the extreme eastern part of the city. The distillery proper caught fire in a mo ment, and before the fire department could get to work the whole establishment was a furnace of flames. The fire spread to the Great Western Pork House, on the east, and from that to the old Kentucky Woolen Mills, one of the largest jeans manufactur ing concerns in the South. It was 3 o'clock before the firemen got control, and this was not until the immense warehouse, the distillery proper, the cattle sheds and the slaughter house and pork packing establishment of Conrad & Seiler, which adjoins the warehouse had been wiped out completely. The loss to the pork packing company will be about $50,000. The remaining loss of nearly or quite $800,000 is on the distillery prorjer and destroyed whisky. This loss is divided among 12 whisky firms for whom Julius Barkhonse as President of the Kentucky Distilling Com pany, manufactures whisky. These firms are the Kentucky Distilling Company; Max Hofheimer & Co., S. Lehman & Sons, J. M. Miller & Co., Bernheim Distilling Company, Buck, Frank & Co., Kentucky Bine Grass Distilling Company and J. C, Marks & Co. These 12 firms had among them in the warehouse 23,711 packages, mdstly in barrels, or 1,120,177 gallons. This whisky is valued at $700,000 in round num bers. The machinery and other contents of the building brings the total of the distilling company's loss up to (800,000. This is irre spective of the loss to tbe Government in unpoid taxes, 90 cents a gallon, which will amount to $981,635, making a total loss by the fire not much less than $2,000,000. The insurance is roughly placed at $700, 000, divided up among the different losers. Some of tbe local companies are caught for large sums. Several foreign companies, however, carried some of the loss. A LEPEB BOUND JOB PITTSBimfi.

BIS FEARS CALLED GROUNDLESS. Powderly and the General Executive Board go to Hew lor TO iSK FOE AKBITEATI0N AT OHCE Albant, Angust 14. The strikers con tinue to speak with confidence ou the final results of the strike. The passenger ser vice on the Central road was to-day beyond criticism. Six freights were sent west and seven south from the West Albany yards this afternoon. There was no freight moved there to-night. Tbe usual daily number of east and west freight trains in and out of the West Albany yards reach 70, while 35 north and south trains represent the freight traffic on the Hudson Biver division. The strikers got hold of the men who came on from Chicago and Boston yesterday, with the result that this morning 42 of the ex perienced Western railroad men who were to be put to work at West Albany refused to go to work, and are now in consultation with the Central strikers. NEW MEN QUIT "WOBK. Twenty of the men who came from Boston and have been working at Karnars, eight miles from here, also quit work to-day. To add to these discouragements to the efforts of the road's officials to move freight a green switchman from tbe Fitchburg road neglected to set a switch properly in the West Albany yards to-day, resulting in the derailment of an engine with six cabooses. Iu conversation with a half dozen of the men who came on from Chicago it was learned that many of the men had been under contract with the Central for weeks before this strike was declared, and when tbey were asked Friday to come on here and fulfil their contract they refused. The men on Saturday were then told that the Cen tral Btrike had been settled and they were wanted to fill the places of the few men the company would not take back, so they came on. It was also said that a large num- Der ot v estern engineers ana nremen bad been under contract with the Central for a month past to come on here to work, which these men thought was an indication that the Central also feared trouble from their engineers and firemen. CALLING 70S THE MILITIA. Sheriff Tappan, of Bensselaer county, this afternoon telegraphed Adjutant Gen eral Porter that he thought he would need State troops at the Fast Albany yards of the Central road, as he feared trouble. Colonel McEwen was sent over the river and found everything quiet and without prospects of disturbance. The Colonel said everything was quiet in this vicinity and there was no cause for anxiety on the part of the railroad officials. A dispatch from Cleveland says: Bnmors current this morning that there would be a tie-np on the Lake Shore Bailrord west of Buffalo failed to materialize and the situa tion to-night was unchanged. Grand Chief Sargent, of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, arrived in the city at an early hour in the morning from bis home in Terre Haute, Ind., and took apartments at the Hollenden. His mission was one of peace, he being called here to adjust tbe trifling grievances of the firemen ou the Kew York, Pennsylvania and Ohio Bailroad. POWDERLY "WANTS ARBITRATION. A Detroit telegram says: The General Executive Board of tbe K. of L. suddenly resolved to-day to finish their labors in Kew Tork and started for that city at 10:55 this evening, in a speech belore an assemblage of K. of L., this evening Mr. Powderly said he and his comrades were going to Kew York to demand arbitration in the matter of the Kew York Central and Hudson river strike. Kew York telegrams estimate the loss to the strikers at $15,000 per day, or counting what they receive from the general strike fnnd, $30,000 per day. A statement has been given ont regarding old hands who want to be received back. Tbe company says they will be given places and treated as new men, where vacancies exist, but no new men will be discharged on their ac count, nor will the turbu'ent ones be taken back at ail. BI0T ON C0LWELL STBEET. That Tjocnllty Stirred Up Nightly by Howl Ins Mobs. The residents in the neighborhood of Logan and Colwell streets were awak ened about 1 o'clock this morning by a howling mob. A free fight was going on, and about 40 people had collected. Each was contributing a share to the up roar. A woman, carrying a little baby in her arms, was the central figure. There was no policeman in the neighbor hood and it was only alter vigorous calling that colored Officer Terry appeared on the scene. He attempted to arrest a man and was presented with a flying brick. The officer fired, but no one was hurt. He, how ever, succeeded in catching Joseph Mc Vicar, who was lodged in the Eleventh ward sta tion house. The crowd remained for a time and it was not until another officer appeared that the mob was dispersed. The citizens of that locality say such rows are a nightly occurrence because of insuf ficient police protection in that quarter. CHICAGO HOLDERS ANGEY. They Threaten o, Ble Strike If Required to Blake Boycotted Patterns. Chicago, Angust 14. A. shop strike among the iron molders is threatened in Chicago, and one was nearly precipitated on Wednesday by a Korthside firm receiv ing and casting a pan for a quarts mill on an order from San Francisco. Secretary Healy, of the Trades and Labor Assembly, and a member of the Molders' Union, said to-day that a strike would in evitably result were tbe foundries to accept orders from San Francisco, as a strike was in progress there. "I don't care to mention the name of the firm referred to, as they promised the shop committee to refuse any further orders from firms where a strike is on. The Molders' Union numbers about 1,600, and, as good men are scarce, it is hardly probable any more patterns will be made here." TEE 8TJBVEY COMPLETED, Sizing; Up the Old Poor Farm Property and Commencing; oa the New One. Assistant City Engineer W. S. Wakefield completed the surveys of the old Poor Farm propsrty yesterday. Owing to a rush of other city work, Mr. Wakefield did not have sufficient time to make the-necessary calculations to show whether the property is larger or smaller than the article of sale specifies. He will at once commence the work of surveying the Stewart farm, which will occupy a period of ten days. A serious obstacle has arisen which may possibly prevent the consummation of the purchase of the Stewart farm. City Attor ney Moreland states that it is optional with Mayor Gourley whether or not he signs the deed of sale. CHICAGO CARPENTERS TO STRIKE. The Council Orders 411 the Men to Go Ont on September 1. Chicago, August 14. The Carpenters' Council, representing the carpenters and joiners in this city, met last night and parsed resolutions ordering out all carpen ters in the city on September 1. The reason given is that the agreement in regard to wages made with the Boss Carpen ters' and Builders' Association, for an in- Jcreaso on Angust 1 has not been kept, . SATURATEJTWITH GAS. THE EARTH POURS IT FORTH FROM EVERY HOLE THAT IS MADE. People In tho Vicinity of tbe Great Explo sion Think Tbey aro Doomed Afraid That tbe Whole Towaship Slay be Blown Up. Shelbtvtlle, August 14. Much ex citement still prevails over the recent gas explosion. It is now discovered that the whole neighborhood in the vicinity of the young volcano is saturated with natural gas and the soil is fnll of it One can run a crowbar down in the ground any place and then light the gas which proceeds from the soil in various quantities. This would in dicate that the gas from the gas-wells has fonnd its way below the limestone, and in many places fractures in the stone permit it to escape into the sand and gravel immediately below the surface soil, which partially prevents its escape into the air." This bears ont the theory that gas has for some time been escap ing trom the sides of the gas wells and dif fusing itself into the sand and gravel below the limestone. 'The whole township seem to be filled with the combustible, and the inhabitants are threatened with disaster. Ko telling but the lighting of a match may not blow two or three townships into smith ereens. It is altogether probable that the diffusion of gas in the soil more or less affects the growing crops. The great question may yet be as to the advisability of sinking gas wells, or if sunk at all, whether other methods should not be used to case and con fine the explosive. Pockets of gas are no donbt forming beneath the limestone all over the region of the gas belt, and it isonly a question of time when it will break forth in terrific force. It is reported by good citizens that to-day boys were roasting corn by gasjets produced by sticking canes down in the soil a few feet in the vicinity of tbe volcano. Such being the case, tbe citizens will soon have to aban don home and fireside. The fissures of the ground blown to atoms Monday are now filling with water, through which gas occa sionally forces its way.
