Bain and cold made it disagreeable here to-day, bat the Bisons and PittsburgB wentin for two games despite this and the slippery grounds. The first game was an excellent battle, in which the Buffalos batted Staler at every time but the rich time. The PIttsburgs did not make half as many hits, buttbey were all made at the proper time. The second game con sisted of seven innings, by mutual consent. Hani had the Bi'ons at his mercy, and Sam t lse was the only man to make a hit, and this was of a very questionable character. This was made in the seventh inning. The ball was a hard hit one, which Kuehne half stopped with une hand, but could not get it to first in time. Pittsburg baa the advantage of the fielding by long odd. Halligan retired in the sixth inning, a foul fly ball disabling bis thumb. The visitors scored an easy win in the second game. The men employed by the capitalists who back Jim White and Rone couldn't hit the ball. The scores: riTTSBCRG. B B r A 1 BUFFALO. B B F A X Fields. 2... Vlner. r Hockley. 1.. Carroll, I. .

With a Bop, Skip nnd Jnmp lbs .Local National League Terrors Win n Game at Cincinnati Other League Remits. ' rsrxctix telegram to thx dispatch. Cincinnati, September 13. With a hop, skip and jump like school boys off for a lark, the Pittsburgs ran from the field this afternoon. They had won a game won It fairly by plucky ..playing. Just once did they appear shaky, and that was when Anderson thought he was not cetttng supported. He seemed to sulk for a few mo ments and gave a base on balls, bat settled down and lined the ball over the plate like a streak of lightning and struck out Knight and ilarr In succession. Young Clingman, who had covered short so grandly in the series, had a bad day. and his mistakes Tirtuallv lost the victory. The Plttsbures seemed to know just when to hit the ball and this they did. scoring eight runs off nine hits, coupled with a couple of errors. Their field work was very fine indeed, with the ex ception of Miller at third, who made fcms bad errors, but they did not cost much. There were several brilliant plays on both sides, Burke making two catches that actually robbed the Reds of runs. Decker's homer, following a base on balls, gave the first two runs, the rest being made by more hard batting and a few er rors. The score: CIX'aTI. B B FAX PITTSBUBO. B B P A E McPhee. 2.

Rivalry between California and Ken tucky Breeders Getting Lively. TROTTERS WITH KEW RECORDS. Eesnlts of tbe Tarions Turfi Events on tbe Eastern and Western Tracks. GENERAL SPOETIJiG HEWS OF THE DAT rcrxciAL txlxobax to titx dispatch.: Lexington, Kt., September 13. There has .been but little good trotting in Ken tucky this week, owing to the weather being rainy. On Winchester's half-mile track there was fairly good racing on Tues-V day, and that good brown mare Viola Medi um, again beat a well-bred f eld in straight heats. Tbe same day the slashing yearling bay filly Alva Mark, by Victor Von Bis marck, dam by Indianapolis, showed her usual high form by winning her race in straight heats, beating two well-bred and promising colts. She is evidently one of the best, if not tbe best, yearling in the State. Next week there will be two great meetings in this vicinity, one at Bichmond and the other at Cynthianoa. The best work done at the track this week was the two-mile by Guesswork (son of Egbert) in 222. W. W. Estill's 2-year-old filly, a full sister to Egwood. trotted a mile in 2:3 A yearling filly by King Nutwood, dam by Winsor, went a mile in 2-55, tbe first she ever trotted. Junemont, just ont of the stud, trot ted a mile in 221K. Constantino was worked out the first time since bis recovery from a long spell of sickness. He trotted the second mile with ease and without a break in 2:3 He is a great colt. Mr. W. H. Carnenter. of Allchlean. is on the fair grounds with Bessie Aldricb, by Ben Hulet, dam Minnie Aldrich; also, her2 ana 8-year-old full sisters, bay mare, by Louis Napoleon, dam Lady Aldrich and Ben Hulet, 230K, by Louis Napoleon, dam Hattie Hulet. Kuby Wilkes, by Young Jim. dam Rysdyk. second dam (dam of Bella, 222) by Jupiter; third dam (dam of Jay Gould, 223) by American Star, went a mile in 2:35, the second mile 220, middle half in 1:10, third mile In 235, second quarter in 34 seconds. WAXING HOTTER. AND HOTTEB. The rivalry between California bred and Kentucky bred trotters is waxing .hotter and hotter. California undoubtedly has reason to be proud of the performances of her trotters, and Kentucky can well afford to share that pride, as from her a large part of the material has been drawn from which ber great studs have been built up. There is no question but tbe California climate is very favorable to the development of horses, and this fact has tended to stimulate California breeders in tbe production of earjy speed. Early speed, how ever, is not a synonym for the best horses or the most of them, ana while California has led in producing horses that trot fast while very young, she has not, as yet, been nearly so suc cessful in aged campaigners and great race horses, nor has she attained as high a rate of speed as those produced in Kentucky. Her most remarkable records have been by the per formers coming from two or three great farms where no expense or sacrifice has been too great, provided it brought the most brilliant results: while in Kentucky some of the fastest and best horses have been bred by small breeders who have enjoyed no extraordinary facilities for breed ing or developing trotters. As the California ydungsters are as fully developed at 3 years old as Kentucky colts and falliesat4.it is no matter or onder that a greater nnmher of3-year-old horses enter the 2.30 list in Cali fornia than in Kentucky. Another featnre in California performances is that, owing to tbe fine autumn weather in that State, horses can be kept in training much longer than in Ken tucky. The latest 3-year-old record ever made by a Kentucky-bred horse lower than 220 was that of Axtell. which was made October 11, and it was nearly a month later (November?) mai ouuui lowereu u a sgcodu anu a nail, xne fact that sbe was unable to accomplish this feat before that time proves the importance of this consideration. THE NEW LIST. The new additions to the 2:30 list this week cumber 91, making a total up to date of 444.

Jack Dempsey, the famons middle-weight pngilist, received a dispatch from New Orleans to-aay, in which It was stated that the Olympic Club will offer a purse of T.OGO for a battle between Mm and Fltislmmans, the Australian pugilist.

The Puritan Clnb, of Long Island City, went the Cresceut City organization one better by offering a purse more advantageous, and Dempsey signified bis willingness to meet Fitzslmmons before this club.

One Speaker at tbo Constitutional Conven tlon Said In n Short Time All the Colored Yotera Would Catch On to It. Jackson, September 13. The Constitu tion Convectionafter remaining in session until 10 P. M. adjourned over until Monday. The' Committee on Temperance and Liquor Traffic reported that they had carefully con sidered the matters laid before them, and submit that in their judgment it is imprac ticable and inopportune to bring the sub ject of either liquor traffic or prohibition before the convention. Mr. Featherstone analyzed the Franchise Committee's report. He objected to the ap portionment feature, which insured only a lean majority of 16 in tbe House and 4 in the Senate, which was likely to be over turned by those sudden political changes which sometimes occur. He criticised the Australian ballot system as an expedient that would be new, strange, expensive and complicated. ''In a short time every nigger in the State would catch onto it." It was another section ot tbe committee's report that came very near being an excel lent thing, but it just missed the mark. He then criticised the educational qualifi cation that every elector "shall be able to read any section of the Constitution; he shall be able to understand the same when read to 'him or give a reasonable interpre tation thereof." He would require that be should read the same readily and he should not be re quired "to interpret the same, which was the province oi the courts." He was always and eternally in favor of an educational qualification, but he wonld not set up too high a standard. He was utterly opposed to the Calhoun and Campbell plans. He wanted something that had been tried, and to which no legal or constitutional objec tion could be urged. In conclusion he made an earnest appeal for the adoption of the measure proposed by him. Mr. Kennedy spoke with lightning ra pidity, his many good points being com plimented by rounds of applanse and laughter. The committee's plan did not suit him in every respect, but it was the best that had been offered, and be was ready to vote for it. Gentlemen had said it was net sufficient, it was uncertain. "There is nothing certain but death." Some ot the delegates would not be satisfied unless each white man has four votes, his wife two, each child one, and they want to say to tbe nig ger, you shan't vote at all. He wanted to leave this convention with the white race on top. He would do anything for the relief of the Delta except to sacrifice the right of one poor man in his country. "The right to franchise is the badge of a free man," he said; "you take that away and he becomes a slave or a serf." Fourteenth Cnvnlrr Reunion.

Cresson was filled with a loyal people to-day looking for a President. The first train in the morning brought in the first delegation of sight-seers for the reception this after noon, which the President gave to the Grand 'Army posts of Blair county, and all day there were more coming. The excursionists spread themselves over the grounds, and having discovered the Park cottage they watched it with anxious eyes. At i o'clock the special train from.AV toona reached Cresson. Post 42 and the Veteran Legion, as well as 1,200 people, were met by General Ekin, ex-Quartermaster General of Pennsylvania. Forming in line and accompanied by the Altoona Band, they arrived at the hotel. The band remained without, playing, while tbe soldiers, followed by the veterans, entered the parlor, wb.ere tbe President and Private Secretary Halford were waiting. v The parlor bad been hurriedly decorated with the United States flag, and between the two doors his His Excellency stood where the passing people could easily greet him. ine windows were filled with ladies and gentlemen,' the guests of the hotel, who watched with in terest, and clapped enthusiastically as a real old soldier or the flag went by. FUNNY FOBGETFULNESS. For bis comrades, J. D. Hicks, of Post 468, presented a short speech to the President, which Mr. Harrison afterward acknowledged in an open-air speech from the corner of the piazza. The reception was enlivened by many interesting and almost ludicrous incidents. Several soldiers were so overcome bv the im portance of the occasion that they quite for got to speak to His Excellency. When they recovered from their contusion, tbey always insisted in going back, explaining and apolo gizing ,for their absent-mindedness, while President Harrison listened with a patient smile. General Ekin, too, created a diversion by posing as President, In spite of himself, for several minutes; for, although he good-naturedly told tbe soldiers be was not the Presi dent, tbey still insisted on grasping his band. The reception lasted about half an honr, after which a serenade was given the Presi dent, while he stood with his family in the cor ner of the front piazza. The band stood below, and around it the eager people pressed, gazing up at tbe President open-muuthed. A medley of national airs preceded the President's speech. Then Mr. Harrison said: "I thank my comrades for tbe greeting that yon have given me. The characteristic of the American people is that they do not place their affections on individuals, but give their loyalty to the flag and the Constitution," AMERICAN PATBIOTISM. In illustration of this the speaker cited the instance of President Lineoln, who probably more than any other man since Washington had secured the affection of the peopie,-and yet when he was assassinated that other great man who afterwards became himself a martyred President could say that "Tbe Government at Washington still lives." Tbe President with much feeling concluded his remarks as follows: "Now my comrades who hare suffered and still suffer for your country. I wish in tbis world all good to you and your dear ones, and in the world to come joy everlasting." As he concluded, Harry Darlington, of Pittsburg, forcing his wav to the front, started a vociferous cheer, which was echoed eagerly by the thousands round, and, acknowledging the compliment with a bow, the President retired. "Baby JlcKee" was called, but the little grandson was lust then busy playing under the trees around the Park cottage. The soldiers followed the President to his home, and again, while he stood In the door way with little Benjamin on his shoulders, tbe bandserenadedblm. The little boy pulled off his can, and when they cheered his illustrious grandfather, be waved it energetically.

After a long and wearisome fight, the people of the Dunbar Fur nace Company have been obliged to give up their fight against the fire. Tbey have found that the idea of running a pipe to the fire in the mine for the purpose of running water to the seat of the flame is of no avail. The trouble seemed to be that the water caused a tremen dous generation of steam which came from the red-hot stones, and caused the workingmen to cease from their labors. All hands will now wait, while the mines are closed np, until tbe fire, is smothered out which will likely take a long time.

FACTS OF THE CBTJDE OH, CASE. Developments In the Trial to Recover Pay ments for Freight Chnrges. I6PICIAL TXLXOBAM TO TBI DISPATCH,! Bradford, September 13. At the trial of the case of Logan, Emery and Weaver against the Pennsylvania Bailroad Company to recover back money paid by the former lor freight on crude oil shipments from the oil regions to Philadelphia, tbe plaintiffs offered no evidence as to refined oil shipments and withdrew tbis part of the claim from the jury, thereby leav ing the charge only upon crude oil, to the amount of about 511,000 barrels, upon which tbey claimed 15 cents per barrel. Under the ruling of tbe Court, to which the plaintiffs' counsel excepted as erroneous tbe claim for three times the amount, was not before the Court at Ltbo present trial. The plaintiffs proved unlaw ful discrimination and payments to favored shippers of rebates and drawbacks on crnde oil ranging from 3 cents to 28 cents per barrel. A large portion of the shipments were from Glean, N. Y., aud the defendant raised the point that no recovery could be bad for this oil. becanse it was shipped from without the State of Pennsylvania, although produced in tbe 'Bradford field and piped from thenco to tanks it Olean for storage. As this question would take the case to the Supreme Court of tbe United States under tbe clause of, the Constitution relating to inter State commerce, whether decided for or against the plaintiffs, a delay and litigation of several years was in prospect. The railroad lawyers at this stage made a proposition to settle and compromise the claim, and on Wednesday evening a settlement was arrived at. The amount paid was by the re quest of the railroad company to be kept se cret. President Roberts, when on tbe wit ness stand, disclaved tbe usual amount of eva sion donvenient to corporation presidents In courts ot justice. Ue did not know of the pool ing contract between the Pennsylvania Rail road Company and the Standard Oil Company in reference to crude oil, and was profoundly ignorant on what lines of bis road tbe Green Line cars ran. Controller Robert A. Downing also found it convenient to take refuge behind a faulty memory. Though he has been signing rebate checks in the office of the Pennsylvania Railroad since 1871, he could not remember what they were given for, although they footed up over $20,000 monthly In the years 1882 and 183. Some of tbe witnesses created amuse ment in the court by describing these rebates as "partial restitution." A CHANGE IN THE PBOGRAnfME.

It is now said that the men are goipg to change their tactics, and, instead of parading and serenading, tbey will resort to more quiet measnres to get the new men out. The committees say tbey will use moral suasion, and attempt to play on the better feelings of the men. Your correspondent has learned from one of the men in tbe mines that the new men are failures, as he says, and can not be used permanently, and that the bosses are weary of them already. Still the new men are very comfortably housed, and they appear to be enjoying themselves under their present good circumstances. They seem to be mining very little coal. It Is reported here that the new men procured a quantity of liquor and have been having a fast time all around.
