The eventful season or ISiK) is drawing to a close, and one more week willwiudup theluuin this city. Our popula tion is less than a half million, but we still lead the country as a baseball center. 1 limit of over 22,000 people paying their little half dollar to see baseball on Labor Day with boat racing, trades union picnics, etc, as counter attrac tions. If every city could support two baseball clubs as Boston has done tnls season, with 58 conflicting dates, what a graft it would be tor the future generation nf ball players! Wo have had both Pittsburg clubs here lately, and more demoralized teams it would be hard to find. I don't mean to iay that the players are not happy; I simply mean that neither club has any confidence when opposed to the strong Eastern teams. Several of Hanlon's best men are on the hospital list, and the team lsveryweaK in batteries, fctaiey is uoing ex cellent work, but big Teuer has been illiand in no condition to do himself justice. He did good work for Anson and be can do it again if he will just play ball and let the finances and correspondence alone. Pitcher Maul gets nianled all over the lot at times, but be has pitched some very good games, ills chief weakness is w-ildness. Beckley and Hanlon, when in condition, have played great ball, and young Corcoran has shown himself to be a tip topper, who w ill improve with experience, i am rather surpnsen that Kobiuson does not smash the lively ball much better than lie is doing. He is naturally a hard hitter, but he doesn't seem to connect with the delusive horseLide as often as his friends would wish for. Hanlon's men dropped three out of four games here, and they were actually surprised to win a game, as the team they presented was ven weak. Thev bucked against Cincinnati in this city, but they did a good business for a team su low in the race. A GOOD DEAWIKG CARD. Comiskey's men have been the best drawing cards in this city, having drawn no le.s than Sb,000 people in nine playing days. They had no holiday and only two Saturdays. Ward's Brooklyn team drew the most people here, but it must be borne in mind that they opened the Peaon and had a holiday Bunker Hill Day. 1 he Pittsburg Leaguers failed to create any enthusiasm here, and from a Boston standpoint tin- attennance was very small. About 2.000 people attended the series of four games, only 00 being present at the double game attrac tion I guess Palmer O'Xeil must be sick of running up against Chicago as an opposition, for it must have cost him hundreds of dollars in Boston and lirooklin. Comiskey's men drew lo.Ouu people here in their last series, and tue Ihicagos were all smiles when they looked at the schedule and found that thev would dally arain with O'Xeil's fairies in the sweet city of Brooklyn, where K roe's League team has things its own way. Not so when Palmer's men reached the town, for Ward's Wonders had nearly 8,000 spec tators on Labor Day, while O'Ncil'b men had to put up three games before 2,000 spectators. The Pittsburg players are not to blame for this sad turn of affairs; thev are just as God made them a decidedly dizzy combination of tin born ball players. There are a few men on tbo team who can plav ball, but I am sizing them up as a whole club. I was sorry to hear that Air. t"Neil caught cold while gunning for robbers; now let him go gunning for ball players, and he mav meet with more success. Ai. Johnson, owner of the Cleveland club (P. L. Is feeling happy just now, as he nulled off about 3.000 as his share of the receipts on Labor Day. This is really the first streak of luck that the plucky Clevelander has been against this season, and he would have been happier still if Anson's team had not opposed linn at the League park. Anson's team was really the best attraction by good odds, but the w orkingmen patronized the Brotherhood in crand style. The two Chicago games drew over 11,000 people, and Johnson's team drew within 200 of Anson's men. What a picnic Johnson would have if he had the Pittsburg League club as opposition! PLATING GKEAT BALI.. The Boston Brotherhood clnb are now wind ing up the season here without opposition, and it looks as if Ewing's men will draw good crowds in the last three games of the season. Kelly's men fear the Giants more than Brook lyn, and the Yorkers will be more formidable than ever when Keefe returns to the fold. O'Rourke is all right again, and his batting lias been immense since he returned to the team. The Boston men are playing ball to per fection, and they never quit until the last man has beeu disposed of. Kelly has been doing magnificent suck work against the Western clubs, and his timely hits have won several games. His gaily fnendt are now thinking seriously of presenting him with a fighting do::, a pair of gaily caparisoned black horses, and a seventeenth century barouche. "Old Hos' Kadbourn, who is a great sportsman aud monarch of all he surveys, is pitching ball that is really surprising the Boston natives. He fields his position in wonderful style, and on several occasions he has as sisted a half dozen times to field men out. In the third Cleveland game he Mopped two terrific hits and saved two runs by heldiugtbc men out at the home plate. This was glory enough for "Old Hoss," but he added more to his laurels by making three hits, including two two-baggers. Joe Quinn is play ing great ball; in fact no second baseman in the country has shown such Improvement. And how Josie is batting! He is an ay above the 300 per cent mark, ana the best saenbee latter in ihe team. Arthur Irwin seems to be improving since his return, but he is a sickly mat, who cannot be depended upon. .Nash is now playing fine ball, and it is reported that he will wed a 'Frkco beile after the season is over. The girl who knuckles on to 2s" ash won't have to grab for "cold vittels" after the honevmoon is ucr. for the great third baseman has an able-bodied bank account. It looks now as if our League team had but little chance for the coieted pennant. The Cincmnatis won two out of three on their last visit, and Anson's men got away with two games on Laboi Diy. The club is acam crippled, and at present Brooklyn has a good lead, which will be hard to overcome. 1-iong and Sullivan are on the sick list, and Bennett is suffering from a lame foot. "Linkic" Lowe is playing short and doing well. He still leads the country in bat ting, but his average is beginning to tumble. Clarkson pitched a wonderful game against Cincinnati, but he shot his bolt and is now a lameuuck. Anson's men slaughtered him on Labor Day, when they hammered out 1! hits, w ith a total of 23.

ISFECIAI. TEL tO U AM TO THE DISPATCH. Philadelphia, September 7. Lawyers Louis Hutt, Jr.. and Harry Freeman will bring suit on behalf of a number of players of the Athletic Baseball Club against that organiza tion for salaries remsinmg unpaid. The attor neys represent Curtis Welch, Mickey Hughes, Eddie Seward, Wilbert Bobinson, George Sha fer, John McMabon, Danny Lyons, Kid Bald win and Jack O'Brien. Lawyer Hutt states that the salaries of his clients have remained unpaid for some time and that lie will on Monday file in court the exact amount dun to each. The amounts owing to the men have not been lurnisbed him as vet. and to-day he could not give any idea as to what was due. He said that all executions and attachments against the funds of the club would not prevent the players from getting their salaries remaining unpaid, as the law gave a prior lien for wages to the amount of 200 in oach case in preference to all other claims. George W. Walton to-day obtained a judg ment against the Athletic Baseball Club for lumber delivered at the grounds amounting to S22S 14. An execution was placed in the hands of the Sheriff with instructions to levy upon the receipts which might be taken in at the game yesterday afternoon. A deputy 6henff visited the grounds on behalf of the Messrs. Walton, but he did not levy upon the receipts, as he found two other attachments ahead of him. THE CHICAGO'S WON. They Detent tho St. Lonls Athletes for n Vnlunblo Silver Cup. St. Louis, Mo.. September 7. The Wander ers Cricket and Athletic Club, of Chicago, and the St. Louis Amateur Athletic Club, compoted this afternoon for a silver cup, valued at $250, the Chicago winning. There were 12 scratch events and at the end the Chicago men had 62 points to their credit while the home team scored 46 points. John Uyan. one of the members of the Chi cago club.broke two Western records. He put the 60-pound weight 29 feet 5 inches, the former Western record being 29 ieet. In put ting the 16-pound shot he made a record of 41 feet IK inches, the former record was 42 feet 7 Inches. Something Mint be Done. Fred Pfeffer and Ed Williamson, of tho Chicago P. L. club, are both of opinion that something must be done this winter to end the present baseball conflict. Both gentlemen stated that efforts are being made to effect a deal of some kind, but they decline to give any details. Williamson says that baseball has certainly been injured, and Pfeffer during a conversation, said: "What can we doT The National League won't quit. However, if nothing else is done we will have no conflicting dates next season." More Games to be Transferred. Director O'Neil, of the local National League club, has decided to again transfer games from this city. He will finish the season at Brook lyn with the Brooklyn clnb instead of finishing it here. This of course will be a financial galu to him and also to the Brooklyn s. When he finishes the series with Brooklyn his team will play exhibition games with clubs of the Atlan tic Association and other organizations. Mr. O'Neil has taken 11 players to Chicago. Our Boys Diftbanded. The Our Boys team has disbanded for the season. The club has played 20 games winning 10 of them and losing 10. It;has los tS45 on the season's play. The team is one of the best amateur) irganizations in the State and their pitcher. Dietz. heads the list among the amateur pitchers. He is really an effective man In the box and onejof the improving kind. To-Dny'silotne Gump. The Cleveland P. L. team will be here to-day to tackle Hanlon's men at Exposition Park. Al Johnson's aggregation have a hope but a vain one, that they will beat the Pittsburgers out in the race, and the present series will there fore be spirited. Morris and Quinn will be the home battery". Ansociatloa Record. V. L. Pc Louisville... 07 3s .650, Rochester. . ht. Louis... bl 40 .570 Athletics... Toledo oS 4S .533 tsvracuse...

There is now a prospect of a sensational foot race between E. C. McClelland and Peter Priddy. McClelland left the following chal lenge at this office last evening: "I, the undersigned, do hereby challenge Peter Priddy to a three-mile foot race, to take place at Homewood Driving Park within three weeks from signing articles, tho race to be for $500 a side. I will meet Mr. Priddy atTnK Dis patch office next Saturday evening at 8 o'clock to sign articles. E. C. McClelland."' A race between these famous distance run ners would be one of the foot racing events of the year. McClelland was defeated some time ago by Priddy in a three-mile race, out un doubtedly the former has greatly improved in speed since then, and at present it is a knotty question to decide who is the better runner at the distance named. At any rate, only a race between them can decide tbe matter, providing they are in good condition. HOT AFTEB FOOTPADS. Reward of SlOO OllVrcd for the Capture of Chambers' Assailants. FrFCTAl. TELEGRAM TO THE DIKPATdT-t Wheeling, September 7. A telegram was received at headquarters late night before last asking the police to arrest any person found on incoming freight trains from West Alexander. Jfo particulars were given, and, though a vigi lant watch was kept, no person w as captnred. It his been learned that Samnel Chambers, whore sides about three miles west of West Alex ander, was knocked down and robbed of $125 while on his way home from tbe Baltimore and Ohio station at that place. He bad been at tbe Washinaton fair. Two men who are supposed to be those who held Mr. Chambers up. were seen on the train. One was a Pittsburg crook. One of them was of medium height and heavy set, with a light colored mustache, and the other was a tail man with a thin face. The watchman at tbe tunnel saw the two men throw away a book which was identified as belonging to Mr. Chambers. The latter is pretty badly used up and is nnder tho care of a physician. A reward of $100 for the capture of the assailants is offered. A New Swimming Record. rsrECIAL TJXEFRAM TO THE DISPATCH.I Philadelphia, September 7. D. M. Bar ringer, a Philadelphia society man, swam 20 miles in the Delaware yesterday afternoon. He was in the water without rest for nine and one half hours, and then Stopped swimming with reluctance, and only when his frienas. who ac companied him In boats insisted tbat he should do so. as eight was drawing onand the tide about to set against bim. Barringer is 30 years old. There is only one amateur record either m England or America for such a longswiui. The record referred to was made by Dr. Pea rose on last Monday week. Before that time the only amateur record wan for ono mile, which distance had been made in 22 minutes andSbi seconds in slack water. Barringer beat Penrose's record. Looks Like a Joke. rSr-ECZAL TELEGRAM TO TBI DISPATCH. 1 New York, September 7. John Metzger, of Pittsburg, has sent the following to the Sun: Sib A party of 25 young men will put up a purse of $1,000 for either Cal McCarthy. George Dixon, Johnny Stuart. Johnny Murphy or any cf ihe 115 pound men in theabove class of high rank, to fight for at the Exposition Hall for 20 rounds with four-ounce gloves. The boys pre fer Cal McCarthy or Johnny Stuart. The sports out here are crazy after fighting, and I think you could get a purse of $50,000 for Sulli. van and Jackson for a finish fight. I would like to hear from some of the above fighters at an early date. John Mktzoer. Bona Stand, Exposition Hall, Pittsburg, Pa., August7. A New Rlcrcle Club. The first meeting of what is hoped will turn out to be a very successful bicycle club was held at No. 65 Irwin avenue, Allegheny, last Friday evening, at which there were present the following Allegheny wheelmen: Messrs. Searigbt, Ward. Charles and Edward Frizell, Whitesidcs, Snodgrassand Jordan, who signed themselves as members. They will meet again at tbe circle in tbe park next Thursday even ing, after which they will adjourn to one of the members' residence to organize. An KxcIiIdk Race. rfPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Philadelphia, September 7. The much talked of and long looked for race between tbe noted cycling cracks, W. W. Taxis, of Phila delphia, and W. J. Wilhelm, of Reading, came off yesterday at Brotherhood Park. A dead heat was the verdict of the judges on the first try, which necessitated a second trial, when a scant sixinches saved a second dead heat and gave the race to Taxis. Timo, 3:14 1-6. SULLIVAN'S FATHER DEAD., Tho Big roslUst Now Mourns the Loss of Both Parents. rsrrctAi. teleobam to the dispatch.i Boston. September 7. Michael Sullivan, the father of John L. Sullivan, died early this m orning at Roxbury. His illness was ot short duration, too short, in fact, to allow his big son to reach his bedside before death. During his closing hours he frequently asked for John, and said: "I wish I could see him once more, then I could die happy." When the big fellow stood beside his father's dead body he wept bitterly. Mr. Sullivan was born In Ireland 65 years ago and came to this country in early manhood. Four boys and three girls were born to him, of whom only two sons and one daughter are now alive. Mr. Sullivan was small in stature, and was a staunch admirer of his powerful son. Wheeling's Ore at Prospects. isrzciAt. telegram to tue dispatch.i "Wheeling, W. Va., September 7.

Director U'Neil says had his team and the Clcvelands plaved two games on Saturday, the Clcvelands could only have claimed a guarantee for one game. That is the rule now. A. J. Cassatt's friends say that ho will be back on the-turf aealn next vear. Daniel Swlgcrt. tne wen Known Kentucky breeder, win also re- turn next season, and a number of other valuable additions are promised. E. C.

Dave Johnson, the Eastern 'bookmaker, is said to have made good his heavy losses of the season last Saturday when he plunged on Potomac to win the Futurity and on Foxmede for second place In the fourth race. BY an oversight In yesterday's paper the name 'National League" was put above the figures of attendance for the Piavers' League and the lat ter was put above the National League figures. The week's attendance for the N. L. was 65,668 for 25 games, and fo. the 1. L. 56, S19 for 28 games.

The Bad Breaks Made by Members of the Party in Congress. A YEKT GOOD IEAR FOR KICKERS. The Amount of Time Wasted by the Senate on the Tariff Bill. UEASONS GITEN FOE BECIPKOCITX 1FROM A STAFF CORRESPONDENT. 3 . Washington-, September 7. The efforts of Republicans to give black: eyes to the Republican party go merri'y on in both the House and the Senate. Several members have discounted the immortal Samscn at his own game. They have slain hundreds of thousands ol Eepublican votes wijh the jaw bone of an ass. The disagreements of Ke publicaus on the tariff and silver bills, the frequent employment of language that is a gross offense against good taste, the bandy ing of epithets, the attack on the Senate and upon Senator Quay" by "Bob" Kennedy, must all have a bad effect on the party in an off year. Indeed it is quite certain they would not be possible except in an off year. There was the same reason and the same opportunity for kicking in 1888, but members of each party stuck together lice a band of brothers. It will be so'again in 1892. This is the year when the independent fellows in the dom inant party think they can safely show their independence. The End of tbe Tariff Debate. It is to be presumed that to-morrow the debate on the tariff bill will be at an end in the Senate. It is full two months since it began, and it has been going on ever since. "What with the debates and amplifications of the speeches "withheld for revision," the tariff matter will, at tbe close of the debate, fill a round 2,000 pages of the Congressional Record. Each day's Record has iu it from 15 to 50 pages of tariff matter. By the way, did you know that the Record has a Sunday issue? Our good Sabbata rians who are opposed to Snnday news papers should begin their onslaughts on the statesmen who set so vicious an example. There is no Monday issue, however, aud therefore no real Sunday work ib done ex cept to deliver the Record to members, who, of conrse, cannot wait till Monday to see how their speeches look in, print. Not n SIorIo Vote Cbnnged. At a modest estimate over 3,500,000 words are contained in this huge bulk of oratory, for the mass is made up principally of speeches. The necessary work of amending and passing the bill could have been done, and less than one-twentieth of that space occupied. I dare assert that not a single vote has been changed by any of tbe hun dreds of speeches that have appeared on the pages of the Record. They have not been made in the interests of the business of ihe country, but wholly for political effect, or from the mere love of debate, which is a ruling passion with most of the statesmen of the Senate. Much oi it has been the most tiresome and aimless debate imaginable, and nine-tenths of the amendments proposed have been for mere party enect or lor the purpose of wasting time. This is what Senator McPberson, who wasted more time than any other one man. calls "educating the people." He made his dilatory speeches and motions to impress and emphasize the "villainy" of the tariff bill in the public mind. Mr. McPherson himself has been educated to some extent in the process. He made the startling asser tion one day that the labor cost involved in the production of a ton of steel rails was only SI 38. Gradually as light broke on his mind, as table after table of figures on the subject confronted him, he was iorced to admit that the cost of labor involved in the production of a ton of steel rails was from $18 to $20, and even more in some instances. Yet all ol bis former arguments on tbe metal schedule had been based on such absurd figures as those with which he started out in the matter ol steel rails. He also asserted in speaking on the wool schedule that in 22 years, from 1867 to 1889, the number of sheep in the United States had only increased a little more than 500, 000, and it required a deal ot argument to convince him that be had over estimated the number of sheep in tbe country in 18G7 a trifling matter of 18,000,000, "With such ignorance as this obtruding in the speeches of a leading advocate of the Democratic view, is it any wonder that a vast mass of the people of the country are convinced that the tariff is robbery? Slaughtered by the Republicans. It seems to me that the Democratic Sena tors might well have been content to sit quietly by and listen to the slaughter of the protective theory by the Eepublicans, for that principle has suffered more at this ses sion in the house of its supposed friends than it has in a quarter of a century irom the onslaught of its enemies. New England on the one hand and the great West on the other have been battering down the strong est bulwarks of the tariff. The Republican leaders have ceased to take the broad view that the countrv is made up ot "localities." and that what is good for the localities must be good for the country, and are coming over to the view of the late Mr. Hancock, who dismissed the whole question with a wave of his hand, saying: "It is a mere lo cal issue. In botn Senate and House this session, ex cept with a very fevt, the sentiment ot Re publicans has been made by the narrow aud selfish sentiment of their States. Mr. Plumb declared almost in so matiy words: " the country, I'm for Kansas." It is to Kansas he must look for his re-election, and nowadays a Senator's statesmanship is bounded by the necessities of his re-election. With the edifice of the protective tariff thus jostled askew by members of Congress, Blaine steps in and gives it a final kick with his reciprocity boot aud all that is left of the old protective tariff garment would not commend itself to an old clo' dealer. All the loregoing murderous processes of tbe Democrats were nothing compared to this. A Voice From Pittsburg, I have before me a letter from Mr. James H. Mann, Treasurer of the American Ax and Tool Company, of Pittsburg, asking tbat the position of the company on the re ciprocity question be made known to the country. Mr. Mann says: "We have 14 large factories in onr corporation, and make and ship three-fourths of all the axes made in the United States. We approve of reci procity as set forth in letters of Hon. James 6. Blaine and amendments to tariff bill now pending before Congress offered by Hon. John Snerman and Hon. A. W. Al dricb. The duty on our goods troing into countries north and south of us will average $160 per dozen. Germany and England with their cheaD labor have secured almost all of the South American, Mexican and West Indian trade. With reciprocity our trade would be increased ten fold, as Amer ican axes and tools are the best in the world." The Whole Idea In a Nutshell. Now, there is the whole reciprocity busi ness in a nutshell. Countries north and outh impose a duty of $1 60 per dozen on Mr. Mann's axes. Do not they impose the same duty on the axes of other countries? And if the duty be removed from Mr. Mann's axes, will it not be removed irom the axes ot every other man who desired to sell axes in countriss where we seek a market? Is any one so foolish as to suppose that Bra zil will offer any concessions to the United States that she will not offer to En gland. With the dnty on axes removed all round, where will the advantage be to tbe '14 large factories in onr corporation that make and ship three-fourths of all tbe axes made in the United States,' and which savors mighty strongly of a gigantic trust? Exactly the same conditions oi competi tion would obtain after the abolition of the dnty as obtained before, and British and German cheap labor wonld enable England and Germany to undersell United States manufactures jnst as it does now. All the reciprocity in the world will not change these conditions one atom The only method by which we ean successfully com pete with foreign countries in the markets of the world is to reduce the wages of Amer ican workingmen and women to the level of the wages in the countries with which we would compete, and that is tbe direction in which we are tending. If it were not for that difference in wages we could compete with those countries now. And if the wages of our workmen be reduced, the power of those workmen to purchase is reduced in the same ratio, and thns the increased under consumption at home of home products would be a thousand times more injurious than the benefits, if any, that wonld accrne from experimenting in a foreign market. We need no foreign trade. If our mill ions of workmen were paid as they might be under a high protective tariff the domes tic demand would be enough. At any rate, reciprocity or no reciprocity, our loreign trade will" be nothing until the wages of our workmen are reduced to the level of the wages of foreign workmen, and the word reciprocity will continue to be suggestive only of the plan by which sensational poli ticians keep their names before a too-forgetful people. E. W. Liohtnek. ANOTHER CONTEST CASE To Come Up In the House of Representa tives During This Week. IFEOU A STAFF CORRESPONDENT. 1 Washington, September 7. It is ex pected that the Langston-Venable contested election case will come up in the House on Tuesday, and that a very lively debate will ensne. The majority of the committee were, for a long time, in doubt in regard to this case, but the fact that there was a doubt, and that a great hue and cry would be raised among tbe colored people if Langston were not seated, decided the case in favor of the colored attorney. Mr. O'Ferrall will open the ball forVenable, and he declares he will, in his management of the Democratic side, use every dilatory trick to prevent the seat ing of the negro Langstou. He assures the correspondent of The Dispatch that every Democrat will walk out of tbe House to break a quorum, and that he will make it impossible, with the present meager attendance of the House, for the Republicans to secure a quorum. He is also assured that a number of Republicaus, who sympathize with ex Senator Mahone in his opposition to Lang ston, will join the Democrats in support of Venable. All this will only make the fight merrier, and the Reoublicans more deter mined: and. though Mr. O'Ferrall may suc ceed for a time, he is pretty certain to be finally beaten. NOT YET IN THE EEC0BD. Kennedy Is Still Holding Tbat Speech la His Inside Pocket. IFROM A STAFF CORRESPONDENT. WASHlNGTON.September 7. The Record was hastily scanned this morning by its nu merous subscribers in this city to learn if the notorious speech of "Bob" Kennedy were in its columns. It was expected tbat Kennedy would publish it this morning, that a day might intervene between its ap pearance and any action the House might take in regard to it. Nowhere, however, did Kennedy's name appear. It is inti mated this evening by some of his friends that Kennedy had decided to pnblish the speech on Tuesday, but just why on Tues day they could Dot tell. While those who know him best say it would be quite in accord with his reckless temperament to publish the speech, it is freely predicted by others that even he will be discreet enough to keep the manu script iu his pocket.

Morgantown, September 7. A railroad down tbe west side of tbe Monongahela river is one of the things that can be counted on as reasonably assured. The events of the last ten days can have no other interpretation than a purpose on the part of those moving" in the matter to build this road. They have bongnt and paid for nearly all the coal on the west bank of the river. Tbey are the same men who originally projected the road on the west side of the river and who own the right of way. Richard T. Lowndes and Colonel Ben Wilton appear to be the leading spirits in the deal. The appearance of Henry Of. Davis in it points very strongly to the revival of the project made public by Ut. Elkins a short time ago of run ning a branch from the West Virginia Central down the valley to Pittsburg. There seems to be no doubt tbat this is a part of the scheme and that the capital of Davis ana Elkins is in it for that purpose.
