The Cleve land clubs won three cames to-day from the Pittsburg clubs. It was a great day for the Cleveland cranks. The local P. L. club had Pete Browning bnck in left field to-day, and Delehanty in consequence was moved over to right. "With the best batting force of the local team out, it was not such an awluily difficult thing to solve the kinks of Staley's delivery and bat the ball all ways. Gruber did not pitch in extraordinarily good form, and it was only the fine work of the fielders behind him that kept the score down so close. Both Radford and Strieker did magnificent work in the infield and their double plays were beauties. The Pittsburg infield, on tbe contrary, appeared to be weak, and dam aging errors were made at critical times. Cleveland scored the first ran in the second inning on JlcAIeer's hir, Strieker's sacrifice and Sutclitfe's hit. It was nip and tuck until tbe sixth, when Pittsburg managed to get in a run on a base on bills to Qulnn, a parsed ball and tetaley's single. That was tbe last run for Pitts burg in the came. in the eighth inning Kadford began with a base hit, Delebanty followed with another and Radford scored on .Browning's lone sacrifice fly. Liaikin hit for a base, sconnc Delebanty, and Tebeau's bit, with a sacrifice, scored Lar km. In the ninth Corcoran fumbled Dele bauty's hit. and Brownn.g hit for a base. X,ar kin got first on balls, and Delebanty scored on Tebeau's long fly to left. Kuehne threw wild when JIcAIeer batted the ball, and Browning scored. Score: Cleveland P L game CLEVELAND.

Slanager Mmrie Winds Up nt New York and Says a Few Word'. rSPECTAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Kitr York, September 17. Tbe season of professional baseball at theJPolo Grounds has come to a close. Tho last game was to have been played there to-day, but rain interfered. Had tbe rain ceased a couple of hours before time for calling tbe game it would have Deen plaed. It was not declared off until 2 o'clock. "Yes." said Superintendent Bell, "the grounds would have been all right had it stopped raining by 2 o'clock. The diamond is cot in as bad condition as might be supposed, as a good share of the rain has run off the surface. A good sprinkling of sawdust would put the ground in shape to play on." Manager Mutrie was waiting, to hear from Harrisbarg, where the team was expected to play an exhibition game to-morrow, but as no ans er came he decided not to go. "We shall leave for Pittsburg to-morrow (Thursday) night," he said. "What do you think of tbe team Pve got now? And Pve se cured two or three other younesters for next season which will astonish everybody. I won't tell you who they are just yet. The team I have at present are all a gentlemanly lot of fellow, and 1 am proud of them. It we couln atart the reason now we conld walk away with the pennant. We can't better our position, but I think e have done n ell considering the mii bars that befell the plavers during tte greater part of the season." Ball Games To-Dny. The only game scheduled for to-day is that between the Brooklyn and New York P. L. clubs. Other clubs will, howerer, plav ofl postponed cames. -The. J?ittsburc and Cleve-V land N. L. clubs will play at Canton. 0., and the Fittsburs and Cleveland F. I. clubs will plar at Cleveland. NATIONAL LEAGUE GAMES. Oar XatlonnI Iieigue Wayfarers OInbe Two More Vain Attempt! to Win at CleTelnnd A Great Game nt Chicago. rSPECIAL TELEOKAU TO THE DISPATCH.! Cleveland, September 17. Tbe Cleveland and Pittsburg National .League clubs made an other endeavor to play two games to-day and were successful. The weather cleared off finely and the borne team-celebrated tbe event by actually winning two games in one day. It is the first time that such a thing has hap pened this season and tbe League cranks nearly fell dead when the second game was over. Anderson, the ex-left-band phenomenon was jn the box for O'Neil's wanderers, and was bandied severely. Tbe home team banged tbe sphere in all directions, and In tbe eighth inning stood the man with the coffee mill de livery on his head. Beatin was hit for nine singles,but they were generally scattered. Tbe eighth was a Waterloo for Anderson and his team. The Clevelands kept up a cannonade until every man but two had a base hit and Davis got bis second triple. Ten runs came in and It was tbe greatest batting spurt in one In ning of tbe season. Beatin eased down in his delivery and Pittsburg got two runs through Burke's timely three-bacrger. As soon as tbe first game bad been concluded and the batteries had taken a warming up tbe two teams went at it again. "Phenomenal" John Smith, another pitcher released by the Phillies, was in tbe box for the Pittsburgh. II 9 tossed lheba!l much' better than his prede cessor, and if bis team hadn't had a fever and ague attack in one inning might have come nearer winning. Viau pitched a magnificent game. His command of the ball was excellent and tbe visitors could not solve his difficult curves. The scores: CLEVELAND. R B P A El PITTSBCKG.

He spoke highly of fhe prospects of the approaching Homewood meeting. During a conversation he said: "I had a talk with Budd Dobld and I think I will get him to bring Jack here to trot against his record. The little gray gelding has a mark of2;12. and I think there" Is a chance of his trying to beat it here. I also made an offer for a race here between Nancy Hanks and Sunol and I will know to-morrow whether or not my offer will be accented. I have secured lots of entries for our races and every race has filled. There are lots of horses at Cleveland and the most surprising is Tom Arden. the horse recent ly bought by Mr. Emery. That horse could have gone the mile in 2:19 had he been pushed. He was in tbe 2:40 class and not a horse in it could touch Mm. He is a great horse and it is not long since be was broken in."

Those Fresh Charges Against Dela mater the Talk of Ihe Hour. PATTISON AT PITTSBURG OCT. 4, Accompanied by Slack, Ilensel and Other Leading Orators. THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE'S TODE from a stafp correspondent. Beading, September 17. W. TJ. Hen- sel's speech is most commented on to-day of last night's addresses, especially in view of of the fact that rumors had been spread abont that Mr. Hensel was not supporting Pattison this year in an active way. Mr. Hensel seems to have heard this rumor, and it seems to have stirred him to a partic ularly offensive partisanship. His speeches last night are considered a broadside and a good bit of in teres tis expressed here as how Delamater will reply to the charges made. Hensel left this morning for home, and will soon begin an active campaigning tonr. Candidates Pattison and Black attended the fair this morning and made a trip over the Mt Pown gravity road, where the dis astrous accident occurred a short time ago. They were escorted by Major Merritt, of this city, and Mr. George 3?. Baer. Accom panying them were State Chairman Kerr, T. A. Maher, John D. Worman, Mr. Ran dall, of Philadelphia; D. O. Barr, S. P. Foley of Pittsburg, and J. Irvin Steel, President of the State Editorial Associa tion an ex-Treasurer of the Democratic societies, and the representative of The Dispatch. an enthusiastic greeting. They were met enthusiastically every where, but no speeches were made by any of the party. At the fair grounds two big red apples were presented to Mr. Pattison by Mr. Coxe, a Republican, who explained they were a local variety known as "Morris Sweets," grown on the Morris estate. Two had also been left there, he said, for Candi date Delamater. The giver was a Repub lican, but the apples grew on Democratic soil. If Mr. Pattison's apples should con tain seeds it wonld be the unlucky one and so on. The ex-Governor returned thanks for the apples, and then mildly said: "I am will ing to share my success or failure with Gov ernor Black," at the same time giving the genial statesman Irom York one ol the apples. Aiterthe tripover the gravity road, the distinguished leaders were driven to the depot and took the 4 o'clock train for Phila delphia, accompanied by Chairman Kerr, D. O. Barr and others. THE PATTISON PROGRAMME. To-morrow they speak at Ashland, and will probably visit the Pottsville Fair at the urgent solicitation of delegates from that place. It has been decided that Pattison. Black, Hensel and other leading lights will visit Pittsburg October 4, and a meeting will De arranged for that date. A feature of the Democratic societies convention was tbe appearance of nearly a dozen colored delegates, who reminded the assemblage that all of the colored voters were not enrolled for Delamater. They took an enthusiastic part in the proceed ings, and J. TJ. H. Ward, of Harrisburg, promised that the colored Democrats would surprise some people by the number which would appear at the polls in November. MA report came in from a Lebanon county Farmers' Alliance man that had reliable assurance that 6,000 Bepublican farmers in Lebanon county wonld vote for Pattison. This estimate was declared to have the sanction of the Presiden' of the Alliance. Chairman Kerr received a telegram from home to-day giving the county ticket nomi nated there, with the information that his delegates were elected to the Congressional Conference, and that harmony and hope were securely grounded in the breasts of Clearfield's Democrats, or words to that effect. ENCOURAGING REPORTS. Chairman Kerr, in conversation, said re ports from all parts of the State were of the most encouraging kind. His correspondents advised him that Delamater was not making a good impression where he appeared in his canvassing tour. The great defection from the Bepublican candidate is popularly ex pected inAllegheny county, Philadelphia and the oil region, but reports from field lieutenants are to the effect that other sec tions will show proportionate disaffection. Mr. ii.err does not regard the John L. Butler bolt as serious. He says that Butler has been Bepublican, Greeubacker and Democrat before, and as this is more of a campaign of honesty against dishonesty than of opposing parties, some bolts of the Butler kind must be expected. Candidate Delamater is expected to ar rive to-morrow morning with Governor Beaver, Senator Watres and others. The flags and bunting profusely displayed bv business places for the Democratic gather ing will be left to greet the visitors to morrow, which is a very convenient arrange ment. A LABOR-SAVING DEVICE. Thenew comers will not notice but what the display was originally intended for them, and the "brick town" will be spared the trouble ot decorating twice. Seeing the fair will be a disagreeable duty, as the grounds are wet and very muddy. It is positively asserted by Philadel phians that Maxweli, Stevenson and Morgan, the division representation leaders, are Delamater men and have been working for the Bepublican candidate all along. Thev are charged with coming here on purpose to get up a fight in the conven tion to cast as much discredit on tbe Demo cratic cause and' create as much confusion in the meeting as possible.

Can didate Delamater was given a cordial re ception by the Bepublican voters of the northern Senatorial district in his tonr through Lancaster county to-day, bnt the crowds were not as large as was expected, for the part of the county through which he passed is thickly populated and almost soydly Bepublican. Senator Delamater arrived in Lancaster early this morning and was met at the railroad sta tion by a committee of Bepublicans. Alter breakfast a speoial train bearing a number of invited guests left for the trip over the Beading and Columbia Bailroad. Al though 125 prominent Bepublicans had been invited to accompany tbe candidates, not more than 25 put in an appearance. The train went to Beinholds station, al most on the Berks county line, where the first stop was made. The candidate shook hands with a number of ladies and gentle men. The tram tben started backward. The first stop was made at Devon, where the candidate made a speech. He said he was glad to be in the midst of the people of Lan caster county, which had long been looked upon as the banner Bepublican connty of Pennsylvania. Mr. Delamater then said he was no man's man, but since youth ap had been a mem ber of the Bepublican party. He believed in honestly treating every man as he wonld be treated in return. At Lititz Mr. Dela mater and Colonel B. Prank Eshlcman made short addresses and at Mauheim the former spoke briefly to a large crowd, who had a stand erected. The train ran to Columbia and Marietta, where receptions were given to the candidate. From there it came to Lancaster, arriving here at 9 o'clock. The candidate was met at the Beading station by the Young Be publican Club with a brass band and escorted to the Conrt House, which was crowded. Senator Delamater was introduced by John Brohm, President of the Young Bepublicans. He spoke lor half an hour, during which he asked for votes, not as the candidate of any one man, but as the representative of the Bepublican party. After the meeting all were invited to shake the candidate bv the hand. BUTTEBWOBTH DOESN'T WANT IT. He Declines the Noruinntion for Congress Id the First Ohio. Cincinnati, September 17. The Hon. Benjamin Butterworth, Bepresentative in Congress from the First Ohio district, has written a letter to a number of his constitu ents who had asked him to be a candidate for re-election in which he positively de clines, giving as one reason that he is obliged to follow some pursuit which will enable him to place his family in circum stances of security, against casualty or death.
