rCOEKESPOXDKSCE OF THE DISPATCH. 1
Boston, September . 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. Chaklls J. Folev.

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".

IPCLELLAND'S BOLD CHALLENGE.
He Offers to Bun Peier Prlddy a Three
Ollle Race.
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.

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.

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.

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.
