The unqualified success of the Homewood Park summer meeting has prompted the directors of that track to a fall rcfetiiig. The dates haTe been selected and events decided upon that are sure to be of national importance. Secretary G. A. Mc Cracken Is certain that the attractions of the proposed meeting will even bo better than those that drew such biz crowds in snmmer. The meeting will last four days, viz Septem ber 23, 24, 25 and 26. The most interesting part of It Is that two very Important match races are likely to take place. One is between the pacers Dallas and Ual Pointer, and the other betweenbe trotters Rosalind Wilkes and Belle Hamlin. Mr. M. McCormick is quite ready to match Dallas against Hal Pointer, three in fine heats,! or $2,600 a side.andtbe Park Associa tion offers to add S1.000 to tbe So, 000 should the race go on. Secretary McCracken is certain that tbe owner of Hal Pointer will be just as ready for tbe match as Mr. McCormick; indeed. Secretory McCracken says that the match is sure to take place. Ho event could be more interesting than a match race betw een these two famous pacers, as each has a very large following who think tbeir favorite the champion. AXOTHEB BIO MATCH. Sire Bros, have written Secretary McCracken stating that they will match Rosalind Wilkes to trot Belle Hamlin for S5.000 a side on Home wood track, and if this challenge is accepted by Mr. Hamlin the Park Association will add $1,000 to the stakes. It is thought that a match will certainly be made. It may be that Mr. Hamlin will request tbe race to be two heats in three,but it is anticipated that a difficulty or that kind will soon be surmounted. Certainly many people think that Mr. Hamlin's speedy mare is the superior of Bosaiind Wilkes.aod there are also many patrons of trotting who think dif ferently. A match race between tbe two mares will, therefore, be a very important feature. Tbe programme for tbe meeting has not yet beed definitelv arranged, but there will be 12 races, that is three each day. Tbe classes will range vom 2:17 to 225 for trotters and from 2:17 to 2.30 for pacers. The directors are not in clined to hare any free-for-all contests. The meeting is to take place during the week fol lowing; the termination of tbe Grand Circnlt races and a week previous to the fall meeting at Terre Haute. A GOOD SELECTION. I 'This selection of dates -will enable owners traveling West with tbeir horses from the Philadelphia meeting to stop off at Pittsburg, and as a result it is expected that almost all the Western horses will compete at tbe Home wood meeting. Tbe purses will range from $600 to SS00 and a good nurse will be offered for a 3-year-old colt race. This is sure to be a good attraction. Altogether it seems hard to avoid the con viction that a fall meeting of tbe kind Intended is sure to be a very great success. Tbat the directors deserve a success all will agree and efforts such as have been and are being made are certain to once more place Pittsburg in a prominent position as a trotting center. Defi nite information about the two matches will be given In a day or two. If a match cannot be arranged between Dallas and Hal Pointer it Is likely tbat a great inducement will be offered for one of these pacers to pace against time. STFVTE'S BIG STJBPBISE. Dfr.

M. it was very un certain as to there being any events at aiL The rain of last night made tbe track exceedingly heavy, and owners of valuable horses were very reluctant to start them at all on such going. The Palo Alto-Jack match, announced for this afternoon, was again postponed, and should the track get no worse than to-night it will take place to-morrow afternoon. Five races were on tbe programme, but tbe standard stakes in two classes were postponed indefinitely. First race was called at 3 P. M. Attendance. 4,000.

TSXXPBAK TO TOI DIRPATClt.1 Beookitn. August 2L For seven Innings tbe Brooklyn Players' League and the Pitts burg Players' League teams bad an exciting battlon the eastern park grounds to-day. During these innings both sides displayed their strength, and as far as runs went both managed to tally one which made the score a tie. Staley jvorked hard and was well supported, bnt some how in the eighth inning Ward's men took a batting streak, and with sacrifices managed to score three runs, pntting the game without doubt. Tbe fielding on both sides was very sharp. The errors made had no effect whatever in the interest of the game. Ward did not play, hav ing contracted fever while at Philadelphia, and his place was filled by Hayes. Outside of two muffs by Beckley the infield of the Pittsburg club was virtually a stonewall, Kuehne. Cor coran and Robinson gathering very difficult grounders, and Staley also gave an exceedingly good account of himself in fielding. Quinn caught in grand style, bnt one of hi&wild throws helped the home team to a run. Orr maae the only error on tbe Brooklyn's side. Tbe score: BKOOKLTK. B B F A EIFITT5BCRO.

TELEGKAX TO THE DISPATCH. 1 Phh.asei.hia, August 21, Heard, that Egyptian looking amateur, who everybody thought Quaker clubs had driven to seclusion several weeks ago, appeared in the box for the Pittsburgs. "Ob. we will kill him," quoth sev eral and Sam Thompson sent a telegram to Evansville, "I drove three beauties over the fence to-day." Tbat is where they were all wrong. The Heard of to-day was a different Heard than tbe Heard you beard of Beveral weeks ago, Bnt seven clean bits were made off bis delivery and not a run was earned. Berg er's error ln tbe first alone meant three runs for.the Phillies. It seems hard to credit him with such a seri ous misplay, as it was the only one ln all bis ten chances. After tbe initial inning Heard was well supported. Vickery was very effect ive, too. He was only hit safely In tbe fourth and ninth Innings, and then it was when Allen and Scbrtver made errors that meant rnns. The other features were catches by Jordan, Sunday and Allen., Tbe second-base playing of Lylle. the base rnnning of Hamilton, Gray's three bagger and Miller's comic coaching. Tbe score: - rnlLA.

POWDEELI MAKES EXPLANATION Of the Canses 'Which Led to the Executive Board's Order. COHDITION OP THINGS IN HEW I0EK New York, August 2L This day has been to the labor leaders here like a pause in battle. Rather say it, has been to them a day of preparation after the declaration and before tbo set-to. Never before has Mr. Powderly, the head of the Knights, been personally in the heat of a contest like the one be lieved to be coming. He never yet has or dered a strike, and feels some pride in the record of peace which he feels is his. There is little doubt. However, about his determi nation in this case. His men say he is here to stay, and the Executive Board says its headquarters during the strike, if one is ordered, will be in this city. It is clear that Mr. Powderly and his cabinet intend, if the strike is made general, that the responsibity shall be brought jnst as close as possible to the rank and hie. This purpose underlies N THE ORDERS OF THE BOAKD to Master "Workman Lee to convene his district assembly, also the order which has gone up the river to Albany to convene their district assembly on Monday. At these meetings the local assemblies will voice their disposition as to a general strike, and the result will be that a fair concensus of opinion among the men may be had. The federation's supreme body will not meet till Saturday and will probably communicate its determination to the Knights here that night or Sunday. The Albany District As sembly, whose action will be influential in the evident plan laid out by Mr. Powderly to make the men themselves declare the strike general, does not meet till Monday as stated. The fair conclusion from the facts and circumstances is that the grand stroke, it it is to come, will not fall before next week. POWDEELY'S STATEMENT. To-day Mr. Powderly.has been preparing the following, which he makes public to night: For some time the management of the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad have been discharging employes who have been active in labor affairs. It. happens that all of those who have been dismissed are members of the order of the Knights of Labor and bave at one time or another been officers of the order and have served on committees which waited on the officials with a view to presenting grievances. These discbarges became so fre quent and were so clearly evidence of a settled purpose on the part of the company to disrupt and destroy tbe organization of the Knights or Labor npon the central system tnat tne Executive Board of District Assembly No. 246, in which tbe Knights of Labor upon the system are enrolled found it necessary to call a special meeting in New York to consider tbe situation. In the meantime, the General Executive Board, having been apprised of thecondition of affairs sent one of its members, Mr. J. J. Holland, to New York with instructions to nse all possible efforts to bring about an amicable adjustment of the difficulty. PEACEABLE SETTLEMENT IMPOSSIBLE. On being ushered into the presence of Mr. Webb, Mr. Holland stated tbat he had called upon him to endeavor to adjnst tbe unpleasant ness existing between tbe company and 'its Knights of Labor employes. Sir. Webb denied tbat there was any exist ing trouble between the company and its employes. Mr. Holland told him that be, as a member of the Executive Board, K. of L., had come at the request of the men made through tbe organization to wbich they be longed. District Assembly 216. Mr. Webb brnsquely declared that he would not discuss the matter with any one not an employe of the company, ana closed tbe interview. Finding all efforts to effect a peaceable set tlement of tbeir grievances impossible, and ibeing convinced tbat it was only a question of time and convenience ot the company when they would, one and all, be discharged nnless they forfeited their manhood and abandoned their privilege as citizens of a free country by renouncing their right to join tbeir fellows in organization calculated to protect tbeir just rights, without intruding npon tbat of others, the District Executive Board had no alternative but to order a strike, wbich tbey did, Tbe public is already acquainted with the details of tbe affair, and repetition is scarcely necessary. The most earnest and sin cere efforts of tbe general officers to seenre a hearing for the discharged men were unavail able. A TALK WITH DEBS ON THE CHANCES OF FIREMEN AGREEING TO STBIKE. Only United Action Can make Such a Re salt Possible Too Much SIsnlQcance May be Attached to the Coming Confer ence. Tekre Haute, August 21. Grand Sec retary Debs, of the Brotherhood of Locomo tive Eiremen, stalked freely to-day to a re porter regarding the impending strike on the New York Central road. He says that when the strike began the local members of tbe Supreme Council, Grand Master Sargent, Grand Chief Howard and himself discussed the situation fully and decided to take no part in the strike. These members ot the Supreme Council at ouce communicated with other members of the council, all of whom except Grand Master Sweeny, of the Switchmen's Mutual Aid Association, acquiesced in their decision. ' - "Too much' significance should not be attached to the meeting of the Supreme Council to be held here Saturday. Our rules provide - that such meet ings shall, when practicable, be held at or near the seat of trouble. Being on the eve of onr annual meeting, to be held in San Erancisco Sep tember 8, and the members of the Supreme Council being widely separated, it was considered more convenient to hold the meeting at Terre Haute. If the representatives of the Brotherhood ot Bailway Conductors who live in California cannot reach here in time thev will have to delegate others to act in their stead. No meeting of the 'Supreme Council can be held unless there is a fall representation of its members. Each organization represented in the Supreme Council must act for itself. Should there be one negative vote in any one organization the strike cannot be ordered. It will be seen therefore that the members of the Supreme Council must be a unit on the question or the strike cannot be ordered." Mr. Debs pointed out the fact that, while perhaps a third of the railway employes were not members of the Federation, yet," as in the 'Q" strike, the employes of that road were almost a unit 'whether belonging to the Federation or not A CHECKMATE M0YS. Strikers Capture Mew Men and Persuade Them Not to Work. Buffalo, August 2L The strikers here made a checkmate move on the Central peo ple this afternoon. They captured the forty and odd men who arrived in the city this morning and yesterday, and took, tbem to the hall where a large meeting was in progress. This was a pretty easy matter as the men, many of whom bad been hired in Chicago and St Louis, said they had been deceived. They claimed they had no idea that they were to take the places of men who had gone out They understood they were to work on a new division of the Central. The meeting this afternoon was for the purpose of making arrangements to send these meu all back to their homes. Ontside ol that there was no change in the situation. SOUTHSIDERS &&J22&.

Some Talk of Repeating; the Great Success of Six Years Ago Tho Most Appropri ate Day to Select for Such a Turnout Some Opinions of It. Interest in the observance of the holiday known as""German Day" is reviving in this city, since word has been received tbat a general movement will be started allover the country. Preparations are already, being made at different points to celebrate the occasion with a great demonstration, and from the tone of tbe Germans in Pitts burg it is probable that in the near future a display will be made surpassing tbe mag nificent procession given several years ago. October 6 is the day set for the celebration. It is tbe anniversary of tbe founding of Germantown, near Philadelphia, a little over 200 years ago! A member of Bev. Dr. Buoff'a congregation, in speaking of the selection of this date for "German day," said: "This is considered the most fitting occasion, because it marks the' first authenticated instance in tbe history of the American colonies when a body of German settlers purchased a large tract of land and built tbeir homes in tbe New World. I cannot say to a certainty whether there will be an industrial parade, a grand banquet, or a big outdoor massmeeting, with prominent speakers and fireworks. Representative German citizens of Pittsburg declare them selves strongly in favor ot purely American institutions, and wish, as iar as possible, to refrain from indulging in any demonstra tion that is totally confined to their own nationality. Tbey are Americans and want to be associated with American celebrations. The matter of observing 'German dav' will be freely discussed, and if it is decided to hold a celebration so effort will be spared to make the demonstration a creditable and successful affair of interest to all." Squire August Ammon, of tbe Southside, evinced interest in the moment when spoken to regarding it He was Chief Marshal ot the mammoth parade six years ago, when the day was celebrated in Pittsburg. It was one of the largest parades ever given in the two cities, requiring 3 hours and 26 minutes for the line to pass a given point The parade was in 'three divisions, rep resenting Pittsburg, Allegheny and South side, each being composed of German so cieties, lodges and citizens in a body. Mr. Ammon is in favor of a celebration of the day, but says he is too old and busy now to have much to do with it. F. N. Stucky thought it would be a good thing to celebrate the day, bat it would be a hard matter to get anyone to go ahead with the preparations and take on them selves the responsibility. Dinner Service for Bismarck. Prince Bismarck, on his resignation, had to give up many things, one being his en joyment of a beautilul dinner service be longing to the State. The owners of the German silver mines have decided to copy this service exactly in native metal and to present it to the ex-Chancellor. It shows that the Prince has disinterested admirers.
