jSrKCIAL TELEGRAM TO TUI DISPATCH.!
Cleveland, Septrmber 18. The series
between Western clubs on tbe Cleveland
grounds wound up to-day with another good
pounding asamst Pittsburg, and the home
club had a little revenge for the series of
defeats it bad sustained from the Smoky
City team early in the summer. The ball
waB thumped all over tbe diamond, and
Maul's pitching iras handled without mercy
by strong batters and the weak batters of
the Cleveland team.
Pittsburg could do but little with Me
Gill except in one inning, when they mac
aged to bunch their hits, and scared the lit
tle fellow into believing that he was going
to get a dose of seven runs, as Maul had in
the fifth. The visitors lead by long odds in
the fielding, but what Cleveland lacked in
this respect was made up by hitting tbe ball
good and hard. The score:

Sloie From Illr. Brunell.
Secretary BrunelL of the Players' League,
passed through tbe city yesterday morning on
his way to Cleveland. During a conversation
be said the P. L. would not play exhibition
games with tbe American Association, and that
the respective clubs of the P. L. would try in a
business way to secure good plavers from the
National League lie added that the I. L.
schedule would be prepared before that of the
National League, and the latter would thus
have a chance to avoid conflicting dates. The
P. L., he said, will consider any reasonable
offer for a national agreement that the N. L.
mav submit. President McCallin, of the local
I. L. club, met Mr. Brunell at the depot.

IETECIAI. TELEGBAJ1 TO THE DISPATCH.!
Caxto O., September 15. The Cleveland
Pittsburg (N. L.) teams played a championship
game here to-day. Young, the old Canton
pitcher, was in tbe box for Cleveland and
would have won with ease had he received
good support. He had a very narrow escape,
and the game was not decided until the last
man was put out. Zimmer wa not himself,
and let in four runs on two wild throws. In the
fourth inning a hot grounder from Sales' bat
struck Delaney in the face and be was obliged
to retire.
The feature of tbe game was tbe heavy bat
ting on both sites Zimmcr's home run in the
seventh inning brought in 1 onrruns. practically
winning the game. Bergcr, an old Canton lad,
was presented w ith a gold watch by his ad
mirers. In the second inning Sales drove a
ball over the fence that looked sure for a
home run, bnt tbe ball struck the side of a tree
and bounded inside, giving him but two bases.
The closeness of the contest nude it very in
teresting, ami both sides were wildly ap
plauded. The score:
GENERAL SPORTING EVENTS.
Some Excellent Kncing nt the Soothslde
Driving Park Track An Exciting- Un
finished Trotting Contest Programme
for To-Day.
The races at the Southside Driving Park yes
terday were highly successful, and those who
saw them witnessed some fine sport. True, the
time was not fast, but the horses were In many
cases so evenly matched that the excitement
was great. The directors of tbe track are
among tbe enterprising people of the city, and
they deserve credit for the success of yester
day. Ihe first event on the card, the 2:50 trot, was
so hotly contested that it was unfinished. Five
beats were trotted, Dom Pedro and Flirtinc
Kate each winning two and Fannie one. It
looked like Flirting Kate's race during the
third and fourth heats, but Pedro came with a
rush in tbe fifth heat and won it. He outstayed
the mare. They made a line contest. The race
will be finished to-day.
The 3-00 pace was won handily by Spokane, a
Sonthside horse. After the first two heats the
gelding came ont and won the next three.
Darkness stopped the racing. To-day the card
will contain tbe unfinished 2.50 trot, the road
sters' race and the contest between Dom Pedro
and E. C. McClelland, the pedestrian. A special
tram will leave tbe 13. fc O. at 1:30 P. M. for the

Two Driver Ordeied Down at the Grand
Circuit Races nt Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, September 18.- The Grand
Circuit races were continued to-day. Tbe first
race called was tbe 2:33 trot, which had been
carried over from Tuesday. ScramDle and
Bellman were the favorites In tbe first beatand
tbe former justified the public's good opinion
by showing the way from start to finish.
Scramble also took the second heat, but there
were those among the spectators who believed
that Sadie M, if properly urged, would have
won, Dnver"McCray, who entered the mare,
was then tauen out and Pettit was selected to
take his place. Tbe third heat also resulted in
favor of Scramble, bnt it was palpable that
Sadie M bad been pulled and the heat was de
cided "no beat." Bets were declared off and
Driver Pettit was lined $100 and suspended un
til the fine should be paid. That tbe judges
were correct in their judgment was shown in
the result of tbe fourth heat which, although,
not won by Sadie M. was done in 225J, the
fastest time in the race. Summary:

tbe rain continuing, the matches had to lie
given up, much to everyone's sorrow. In both
singles and doubles the entries of tbe Pittsburg
Tenuis Club carried off first and second prizes;
Mr. Moorhead having previously won first in
singles and Moorhead and Reed first in doubles.

rrSOM A STATP COBBESPONDEITT.J
"Washington, September 18. "When
Judge Chipman, of Michigan, a fortnight
ago, offered a resolution requesting the Sec
retary of the Navy to inform the House of
Representatives whether the Bethlehem
Iron Company, which has large Gov
ernment contracts for furnishing armor plate
and gun steel was using foreign ore shipped
in British vessels for the manufacture of
this steel, it was generally thought to be
a mere bluff, and it was referred to a com
mittee and was supposed to be buried beyond
resurrection. Now that it has been favor
ably reported, the iniormation given by
Otto E. Eeimer, United States Consnl at
Santiago de Cuba, in a report dated last No
vember, on which the resolution is based,
becomes of interest. The facts of Consul
Reimer's report bearing on the subject are
as follows:
The General Government of Cuba granted
tbe charter and concession granted to the
J uracil a Iron Company, through the Ultra
marine Minister of Spam at Madrid. This con
cession allowed the Jnragna Iron Company,
Limited, of Philadelphia, to construct a nar
row gauge railroad from their mines to Santiago
de Cuba for the sole use of their mines and
mineral, this railroad to pay neither taxes nor
charges for the term of 09 years.
THE FBEE ENTET OF MATEBIAIj
for constructing and maintaing the railroad
rolling stock and everything needed for the use
of the road to transport mineral is included in
this grant. This grant has caused many mine
owners to demand from tho Spanish Govern
ment like privileges, and, convinced of the
willingness of such Government to further
the mining industry, other grants for mining,
railroads and the establishing of entry and
clearance ports in the vicinity of other mines
have been asked for and conceded, thus mak
ing the preliminary wort, which Is always the
most-difficult for companies and capitalists de
siring to work mines easy in the extreme, and
entirely free from the long and discouraging
delays in obtaining concessions which charac
terizes such work here.
The Juragua Company owns 780 hectares of
mines, which theybouzht for $3t0,000 (Spanish
gold), with tbe agreement of paying a royalty
of 6 cents per ton of 2,210 pounds exported.
They at present own a rolling stock of 1,000 ore
cars, 285 small side dump cars, IS flat cars, 2
passenger cars, 8 large and 6 small locomotives,
and are working five mines In 82 workings at
present, employing some 1,200 on the railroad.
They are of immense advantage to this province
and have, it might be said, rejuvenated this
part of tbe province, and have given an im
mense impetus to trade and navigation.
ine ore. an shipped m steamers under the
British flag, is conveyed by rail to tho com
pany's dock at La Cruz,wnere It is dumped into
tbe steamers. Tbe stockholders of this com
pany are largely composed of strong capitalists
in Pennsylvania, and the ore is shipped for use
of the Pennsylvania Iron Company, of Steel
ton, Pa., and the Bethlehem Iron Company, of
Bethlehem. Pa.
BIG MONEY EXPENDED.
It is estimated that $2,500,000 were spent in
this enterprise, which enterprise for its able
management, strong financial position and
willingness to comply with the laws of the
country is a ciedit to American enterprise.
The Consul says in conclusion:
After perusing this report, tbe question is
naturally asked. How is it that with mines
richer than those of Spain, more easily and
cheaply reached than oar own on Lake Su
perior, no more American capital is invested
here? In closing it is well to refer to a question
of great moment and importance. The popu
lation of this province, in the number of its
working people, inadequate even now to supply
the increasing demand for laborer! in sugar
estates and mines, is unused, and often un
willintr. to perform hard lbor such as
mining. Considerinc this question a most
vital one. the writer had some time since
a conversation with Captain General Sala
manca, when that gentleman was here. That
authority is fully alive to this critical situation
and has already taken steps to encourage emi
gration from Spain, with excellent results. Be
side, tbe soldiers on tbis island can be employed
as laborers in tbe mine!, and are so employed
with tbe Spani-h Government's consent. The
great labor question, of great moment to sngar
planters, need offer no obstacles to the work
ing of mines by American capitalists.
The writer hopes that this hurried review of
iron mines in the Province of Santiago de Cuba
will serve to draw the attention of the Ameri
can public to this wonderful country.

SCIENCE BAFFLED.
JOHNSTONE, THE MIND READER, PER
FORMS ANOTHER MIRACLE.
With His Five Senses Temporarily Dead
ened He Astonishes tbe People Others
Think of- Ibe Combination While He
Opens a Safe.
Chicago, September 18. Paul A.
Johnstone, the mind reader whose recent
feat of picking a name out of the register at
the Grand Pacific Hotel after a long drive
blindfolded through crowded streets at
tracted such wide attention, performed
another feat to-day which to all appear
ances totally disproves the theory that man
possesses only five senses and also the belief
that mind reading is really a species of
muscle reading. Johnstone opened a diffi
cult combination safe at tbe Wellington
Hotel and under the following remarkable
circumstances:
He was first blindfolded and the bandaees
thoroughly examined by a committee. His
ears were packed with cotton so it was im
possible for him to hear, then his nostrils
were similarly filled to destroy,, for the time
being, the sense of smell, and finally his
bands were covered with thick kid gloves to
disprove the theory of muscle reading. In
his mouth he held a lighted cigar, so that
even the sense of taste was temporarily de
stroyed. The proprietors and bookkeeper
of tbe hotel then took: a position behind
bin), and while Johnstone tnrned the knob
of the safe, tbey were requested to think of
the combination. Without touching either
of the gentlemen, the mind reader turned
correctly to the numbers and swung the
door open. The crowd which witnessed the
act cheered him repeatedly.
Johnstone declares that his idea in open
ing the safe under such peculiar conditions
was simply to prove that man actually pos
sesses more than five senses, and that science
is in error. In conversation the mind
reader couples his perlormance to-day as in
some respects comparing in importance to
the scientific world with the discovery of the
circulation of the blood, or the law of gravitation.

The Case of O'Drlen. Charged With Slander.
Insr Prince George, Adjoarred.
Montreal, September )8. The case of
B. N. O'Brien, charged with circulating an
nntrue story about Prince George being ar
rested in a questionable quarter of
the city, was continued this
afternoon in tbe Police Court
before Judge Desnoyers. The only evi
dence heard was that of Hall, clerk of the
telegraph company, who was cross-examined
and failed to prove that the dispatches in
question were those of O'Brien, as he did
not see them written, though he had no
doubt they were by him.
O'Brien has retained the services of
seven leading lawyers in Montreal. High
Constable Bissonnette to-day affirmed defi
nitely that O'Brien was not arrested on Mon
day as stated in several papers, and to
morrow O'Brien's solicitors will enter ac
tion against the Montreal Gazette for $20,000
for making this and other assertions.
Prince George is said to have regarded the
whole affair as a joke, though the Queen has
sent a dispatch to Lord Stanley inquiring
about the truth. The case was adjourned
until to-morrow.

SPECIAL TELEOBAM TO THE DISPATCH.t
Mansfield Valley, September 18. The
quarterly meeting of the Women's Baptist
Foreign Missionary Society held three sessions
in the First Baptist Church here to-day. The
opening session was held at 1030 this morning.
Mrs. Reymer, the President, conducted tbe de
votional exercises. Tbe Association Director,
Mrs. Carey, made an urcent plea for her work.
There were delecates present from 50 different
churches, and all bad reports to make. After
an excellent dinner in the church, which was
served by the local ladies, the afternoon session
convened at 2 o'clock, with Mrs. Riddle in the
chair. Able papers were read on "Difficulties
and Hindrances to Successful Work in Mis
sions" and other topics, by Mrs. Stanton, of the
East End, Pittsburg. These papers were dis
cussed at great length.
The evening session convened at 7:30. Miss
Car Reese read an interesting paper on tbe
'Importance of Mission Work." The Rev. Dr.
Treacy, lately returned from India, where he
has been as a missionary, but who is now lo
cated in Allegheny, gave an interesting talk of
45 minutes on the life and manners of the

PASSING ON CHARACTERS.
Work of tho Sandusky United Brethren
Confceice.
Findlay, September 18. There was an
additional arrival of about 30 ministers at the
Sandusky United Brethren Con'erence to
day, and fully 100 ministerial and lay dele
gates are now in attendance. Tbe confer
ence spent most of tbe day in passing on the
characters of preachers, and the case ofBev.
G. W. Taylor, of Defiance, who became in
volved in a scandal several months ago,
from which he has just partially redeemed
himself by the marriage of the girl. It is
evident 'mm the sentiment of the confer
ence that the gentleman will hardly be re
tained. The conference debated for several hours
on the proposition to change from four to
two presiding elders for each district and
the proposition was finally carried.
Shot One of His Crew.
Milwaukee, September 14. Captain
William H. Landgraff, of the steamer
Nevada, shot and fatally wounded a sailor
known as Charley, to-night, in a dispute
that arose from the captain's refusal to pay
Charley, because he had shipped for a round
trip and left the vessel here.
v Arrest of a Bell Boy.
New York. September 18. A bell boy
at the Hotel Vendome was arrested to-night
and taken to police headquarters. It is sup
posed Lis arrest is in connection with the
robbery of the box containing 512,000, which
Bookmaker Carlin had placed in the hotel
safe.
Rushing Waters From n Broken Dam Canse
Great Destrncilon.
Troy, September 18. The dam at the
outlet of the reservoir known as the Bone
steel Pond, six miles northeast of the village
of Poestenkill, gave way about 2 o'clock
this morning. The water rushed down
through the narrow valley, tearing up trees
and carrying away everything standing iu
its course.
Six new bridges on the Poestenkill and
Columbia highway were swept away and
destroyed, and all builings on the line of the
stream were washed away.
Boots Greatly Delayed by Dense
Daring the Night.
With its accustomed fickleness the river
dropped again yesterday, and the rise or fail of
one to three feet is a common occurrence now
adays. This is due to tho nnsettled condition
of tbe weather. The rain clonds which passed
over the valley within tbe past few days are by
tbis time pretty well broken up, and are
making spasmodic efforts to causo a storm
along tbe Monongahela, but with poor suc
cess. Within a period of 21 hours the river
experienced a rise of 1 foot and a tail ot 2.3.
Such fluctuations as these during the heated
term would occasion any amount of excite
ment, but now it is scarcely noted.
Business was not so good on the levee as on
Wednesday on account of no boats arriving
from Cincinnati. All boats now en route are
making very slow progress, being compelled to
move at nigbt in darkness that one old salt
said could be cut with a knife Delays at this
season of the year are to be looked for, and
boats cannot be moved with any degree of cer
tainty. The pier marks registered 10.9 at 6 o'clock
last evening, falling slowly. Light shipments
of coal were made during the day. Empty
barges are lining tbe shoro again. About
three score of them will be sent to the mines
to-day to be loaded.

DOUBLE SUICIDE AT A SIGNAL.
A Girl nnd Her Lover End Their Lives nt the
Same Moment.
New York, September 18. Gnstave G.
Koch, 26 years old, crayon artist, born in
Vienna, and Emilie Bossie, aged 19, an
actress with Amberg's troupe, born in
Berlin, committed suicide early this morn
ing. Koch, after pacing up and down the
uptown station of the elevated railroad, at
the Bowery and Canal street, several times
at 6 o'clock this morning, stopped
at the south end, when a woman
put her "head out of the third
story window in a Bowery building. He
said to her: "Yes. I have come, Emilie,
are you ready?" The next moment, at the
signal "ready," he shot himself, falling
dead under the window, and the woman
committed the same act in her room. Emilie
left a letter addressed to her aunt, Mary
Enoon, with whom she boarded, in which
she spoke ot her lover, Koch, a quarrel with
ber mother, a determination ot Koch and
herself to commit suicide, and asking that
her body be cremated.
The yonng woman had put on a fine night
gown, bad pinned a spray of heliotrope over
her heart and had then lain down on the bed
and shot herself. It was siid that she was
of fairly good family in Berlin; that her
mother, who is alive, is a writer, and that
her iather, who is dead, a musician. Her
lover was a divorced man, and they could
have married, but they were both foolish,
fond of sensation, and appear to have
wished to die meiely to make a newspaper
story.
