L. teams at Exposition Park. The playing of course was not up to the mark, but that shortcoming was counter balanced by the closeness of the contest. The score was tied twice, and the result was in donbt until the last inning. Nowadays the scientiSc features of ball playing are not looked for very much, and a close argument to the end seems to fill tbe bill as mnch as any thing else. Tbe contest in question was one of tbe close kind, indeed, and kept onlookers on pins and needles until the last man was out. The home team scored a victory, and tbey scored it by playinc better than the visitors. Staley bad almost everything to do with tbe victory because he pitched in excellent form, and "Ward's wonders" could do little with him. Orr and McGeacby were the only two who cot a solid crack at his delivery. Only two runs on each side vere earned, and that means that there was some ery rocky plajing on both sides. In the fourth inning Carroll made a home run into center field after Beckley bad secured bis base on balls. Carroll's was an earned run. The other run ot merit n as in tbe last inninc At that stage tbe score was tied, and Fields acd Visner had both struck ont. Beckley made a sinirlc tn ccutvr, and Carroll followed with a lively single to left. JleGcby fumbled the ball, and mule a wild throw past tbe plate, allowing the tvo men to score amid cheers. Hanlon followed with a safe hit, which earned Bpckley's run. Errors were responsible for the other tallies. For tbe visitors, in tbe fourth inning, Orr led oft with a triple to right, and McGeacby fol lowed with a boiner past Hanlon, earning the two runs. Krrors by Hanlon, Fields and Rob inson were responsible for tbe other two runs. The score: MTISBCRG. B B P A E EBOOKLTW.

TUorrip, Kuebre nod Koblnson Sot Wanted Hcic for Scxt Yenr. It is now definitely understood that among the plaj ers that are not wanted In the local Play ers' League team for next year are Morn?, Kueline and Robinson. Manager Hanlon has been qucted as saying that he had given them 20 da s' notice. Ho denies this, however. He states that they have each a contract for this year and that he could not give them notice at present. They are on tbe list to go, however. As to the other players who are to be dis pensed with. Manager Hanlon declines to say anything definite. Carroll will remain in tbe club, and there i a desire to retain Visner. Re garding tbe pla ers that will be secured to fill the vacancies Manager Hanlon said: "I have some good men on my list, and probably some of them are now in the Players' League. Others are not in that league. 1 cannot say anything definite nn tbe matter at present because none of the men are engaged. I will get good men, however." About ihc Horn. Club. The local P. L. team and Ward's wonders will entertain the Altoona citizens to-day with a ball game, weather permitting. The contest will, no doubt, be an interesting one. Tener and Hurley will be the Pittsburg battery, and Van Haltreu and Daly will likely officiate for Brooklyn. The local K. L. team will have its last argu ment with Boston at itecreation Park to-day, ami iudging from the last two games their to day's contest will probably be a good one. Each club bas won a game in the series, and the home players are in good form. The Phillies come to Kccreatiou Park to-dorrow, and Anderson promises to catch Hamilton napping at first, a feat that bas only been oncp clone this season. Burke also states he will beat Sunday's record at bat and m the field during the series. Plnyers Lensue Record. W. L l'c, W. U Pc. Boston 78 44 .CCS'PMIa 66 58 .632 Brooklyn .. 74 a ,S$2 ITtlsbnre. .

PitliburffLo.es a tinmn to Boston, Proba bly Tbroueh nn Umpire's mistake A Closo nnd IiitereiUoe Contest at Recrea tion Pnrk Yesterday Afternoon. A very bad mistake by Umpire McQuade spoiled a chance for a local If. L. team to win the second game from tbe Bostons yesterday afternoon. It was in the ninth, when Wilson was on second base and two men were out. Burke hit for a two-baser along the right foul line and the score was tied. Tbe hit was about two feet safe, but the umpire was in a position to see it foul, and so it went, and the game was lost. Several of tbe Boston men said after the game that the bit was safe beyond i doubt, but they did not have any reason to complain. The contest was close and exciting all through, and was never won until the last man dropped bis bat in the ninth. Only one error marred the local men's work, and that was from a most unexpected source, Burke doing the act, This had nothing to do with the re sult, however, and it was clearly the bases on balls sent out by Mr. Smith that caused the disaster. In the sixth inning he sent three men to bases on balls, but only one of them scored. The Bostons nut up a stronger game and batted better than on the previous day. The game was kept close from start to finish. J either team scored until the fifth, when each got in a run. Boston had the first advantage, scoring an earned run. Kichols opened with a two-bacger and was driven borne on Lowe s single. The local men retaliated in kind their time at bat, also scoring an earned rnn. Smith singled and Burke's corking two-baser sent him over the plate. The sixth also produced a run each. For Boston Smith got first on balls, second on a Eassed ball and scored on Lowe's single. Pitts urg followed out by La Roque getting a two bagger, stealing third, and Sales' single scoied him. Boston continued in tbe seventh, but the local men shut up shop. Sullivan got a base on balls and stole second. Brodie's single scored him. Brodie in turn scored on Hardle's two bagger. This ended Boston's fun and the Pittsburgs did nothing until the ninth, when Sales singled, got second on a wild pitch and scored on Wilson's single. Attendance, 210. Score: FITTSBCEG.

To day, at the Birchall trial, when counsel for the Crown Osier read letters purporting to be from Birchall to Mellerish, through whom the prisoner and Benwell were brought together, blushes suffused the checks of Birchall when it was shown that he had practiced deceit on Benwell and his father. Conductor Poole, on whose train, it is said, Birchall and the rest went to Niagara Falls, was examined. He had spoken of a guncase, with a check attached, being handed out of the train, but he stated to-day that he had no recollection of a check. He admitted that be had spoken in former evi dence of an overcoat and not a waterproof, us he had called it to-day. Mr. Blackstock read from the evidence of Poole at the in vestigation that thelight-complexionedmac had a full suit of a light color. Benwell's trousers were striped and his coat and vest brown check. EIGID EXAMINATIONS. Mr. Blackstock rigidly examined witness as to the boots, which one of these passengers wore and ol which he spoke oi as being of English make and Poole admitted that he bad not said anything about boots either time when he was previously examined. Miss Lockhart, of "Woodstock, said she was traveling west February 17, from Pari 8 past "Woodstock. She saw two passengers get off at Eastwood. On seeing Birchall afterward in jail she identified him as one who had sat before her iu the train. The other she recognized in the body of Benwell when exhumed. Cross-examined by Mr. Black stock she acknowledged that, though reading theaccount of the finding ot the body, she had not for some time connected the inci dent with the tragedy. Something said in Mr. Birchall's evidence first brought the connection to her mind. On a previous occasion she had stated that she had taken notice of the passengers, but her evidence of to-day, as Air. Blackstock showed, did not agree with this. MISS LOCKHABT'S STORY. The taller passenger, she says, was dressed in a black overcoat and cap. On the 17th of March she saw Detective Murray, wbo heard her statements, and told her it would be necessary for her to go the same day to Princeton. She there saw Benwell's body in the cemetery aud at once recog nized it. Mr. Blackstock cave her a copy of a paper of February 28, which she bad said contained evidence upon which she had identified the young men seen by him at Eastwood with the two she bad seen on tbe train and whom she recognized, one in his coffin as Benwell, and one in the jail as Birchall. He showed that tbe evidence mentioned was not in the paper, and had not been published till some time later. Elizabeth Choate, living nearlngersoll, was traveling from Brantford home on Feb ruary 17. ANOTHER LADY WITNESS. "I sat two or three seats behind two men. One wore an Astrakhan cap. I saw his lace oulv for a moment, as his cap fell. His face was rather thinner than the prisoner's. The other man I believe, as far as I noticed from behind, wore glasses while reading a paper. The man believed to be Birchall answered some remark of his companion with 'Get accustomed to.' I did not bear the rest. I remained in Ingersoll a month." Alfred Hayward, an old miller, living at Eastwood, saw, February 17, two men pass ing by his home between 11 and 12 o'clock, as though coming from the train along the road from south to north. Tbe prisoner was one of them and was a little ahead of his companion. He wore a short coat. The man behind be thought was an Englishman by his coat. On Hayward's previous exam ination he would not swear to the identity oi the prisoner as one ot these men. He merely stated be went indoors and told his wife two old country gentlemen were walk ing down to Mr. Pattison's. CORNERED BY BLACKSTOCK. Mr. Blackstock pointed to the gallery, and asked tbe witness if he could see a man there amone the ladles. "Yes," witness said. "I can't tell wbo he is." "Yet," said Mr. Blackstock, "you pro fess to recognize tbe prisoner as a gentle man who passed at 120 yards distance.' Tfte Niagara ifalls fttrand Trunk ticket agent swore to having sold two tickets to Eastwood on February 17 last, and none since. John Crosby, of Princeton, iestified he saw Birchall on Governor's road on February 17 John Perry, a farmer, swore he saw tracks of two men in the snow from Governor's road across his lot, on February 17, to the swamp where Benwell was found dead. George MacDonald stated that he was hunting in Blenheim swamp February 17 and heard two shots of a pistol or a small rifle. Charles Buck swore that he had met Birchall on February 17, returning as from the swamp of death with his pants rolled up, and his boots very dirty. SENSATION IN COURT. A sensation was manifested in court when the crier called Miss Alice Smith. This witness bas appeared previously, both at the investigation and of the inquest, and her clear and positive statements, together with her exceptionally beautiful lace, have thrown about ber an interest second only tn that which attaches to the prisoner anil his wire. It will be remembered that about two weeks ago it was reported tbat Miss Smith, who had been for some time at Niagara Fallt, would not testify, as she had disap peared from the country. This turned out to be a pure canard. Miss Smith did not flinch when she entered the box. She re peated what she had said on the previous occasion, that on February 17 she was at the station to post a letter; that as she entered the gate of the station enclosure tbe prisoner came up to her and shook hands with ber, asked about ber people and prom ised to go and visit the "Old Governor," her graudfather, with whom she lived. NEW EVIDENCE. The prisoner told her (and this is new in Miss Smith's evidence) tbat he had been to the Northwest on business about some horses, whether to sell or buy horses she could not remember. He bought a ticket and left by an east-bound train. She stated with tne utmost particularity the circum stances of her visit to the station. She bad gone there to post the letter because the mail was closed. She was on her way to a store with eggs, which she traded for oil and gloves. She even' produced the book in whieh the entry was made. The witness stated that she knew the prisoner because he had come with Mrs. Somerset, as his wife was then called, and Dudley, a friend, to her house several times. When she saw the prisoner she asked, "Is it Dudley?" and he laughed and said, "Don't you knqw me?" Suit Room Special!! No. 1 All-wool trfcotsnit, $10. No. 2 All-wool homespun, $12.

ISrECIAL TKLXOBAV TO TUB DISPATCH.! EEADiNO.September 25. Michael Horst, a rich farmer oi Gravel Hill, Lebanon county, had a wild and exciting ride this morning after his pretty young daughter Lizzie, who bad secretly left the farmhouse late last night to rnn away to Camden with a young farmer, Adam Miller, and be mar ried. Thelovershaditall planned. Mr.Miller aged 26, owns an adjoining 40-acre larm and wanted Lizzie, aged 20, black-haired and black-eyed, to be his wife. Her rich old father objected. Lizzie quietly went up stairs after supper, secretly got ready, and when the family were asleep she tip-toed down stairs and out into the road, where her lover was waiting with his team. Off they drove in high glee and when morning dawned they arrived at Lebanon, put the team away and proceeded to the de pot, where the lover bought tickets for two to Philadelphia. With a smile of triumph they walked to the train, but just as they were about entering the car Farmer Horst, in a big coat aud with fire in his eyes, stood in front of them. He had discov ered his daughter's absence from borne, bitched up a pair of trotters, driven to the nearest railway station, caught the train just in time, and arrived at Lebanon just as the eloping couple were about to leave. Quickly the lovers turned and fled from tbe depot platform, young Miller seeking refuge among the freight cars, while fright ened Lizzie hid away in one of the waiting rooms. Farmer Horst called out loudly for help, gesticulated wildly, offered the train hands a liberal reward to catch them, but the men only laughed, and refused assistance. The train sped away, and finally Con stable Gates came along and soon found Lizzie and with some difficulty delivered her over to her much excited father. Farmer Horst then took Lizzie to tbe office of his lawyer. General Gobin, where the well-known Bepublican leader gave Lizzie some good advice, and finally sbe conseuted to return to the farmhouse with her father and not run off again. Farmer Horse wanted to have young Miller arrested, but be was advised to drop the matter, and at 10 o'clock he took Lizzie home. The lover soon after appeared, say ing tbat these autumn days were very lovely, that Camden would not run away, and tbat as he did not wish to have a per sonal altercation with the old man he got out of his way. Miller smiled, and inti mated that Lizzie would yet be his, and that before long. A PLOT AGAINST DIAZ CULMINATES IN AN ATTEMPT TO ASSAS SINATE HIM. Assailed With Brickbats and Bullets Dar ing a Fcnst at the Palace, tho Mexican President Has n Narrow Escape Tbe Cause of tbe Uprising. San Antonio, September 25. A prom inent railway official who reached San Antonio this morning from the City of Mexico, and whose large interest in the neighboring Bepublic render it wise for him to be very guarded in what he says, relates a startling story of an attempt on the life of President Diaz. The story in brief is as follows: During the national celebration on the Uth instant, an immense crowd of people of all classes surged around tbe Executive Palace at night to do homage to Diaz. During the climax oi tbe festivi ies, while bands were playing and fireworks were popping and sizling the loudest, the President, accompanied by hu personal staff, stepped out on to the front piazza in re sponse to dealening calls, to witness the pyrotechnic display. No sooner had his martial form appeared on the gallery than a volley of musketry sounded above the din of music, fireworks and yells, and bits of brick and timber be gan to fly around his head. He retreated hurriedly to his room, followed by his staff. Three bullets whizzed dangerously near him. Forty men are known to have been concerned in the murderous plot, 15 of whom are now in jail, aud the others are fleeing precipitately from the country with the military on their track. The news has just appeared in the Mexico Government offices. The reason of the attack is assigned to a variety of causes, the most important of which is that tbe President is strongly sus pected of coquetting of late with the cler ical party, which is in direct conflict polit ically and socially with tbe Liberals, to whom Diaz owes his power. Mrs. Diaz is a devout Catholic, and several days ago entertained the Archbishop of Mexico in the Presidental palace, which is the first occurrence of the kind since the bloody siege of tbe revolution that ended in victory for the Liberal party.

A Western County Seat Fight Ee sults in Eiot and Bloodshed. FORCES CONTEND WITH RIFLES. Caring the Progress of the Battle the Court House in Dispute IS SATDEATED WITH OIL AND BDENED Lamar, Col., September 25. Word has been received of serious trouble between the towns of Boston and Springfield in Baca county. Since Baca county was made from Las Animas county by the last General As sembly, there bas been strife between these two towns as to which should have the seat. The act organizing the county provided that Springfield should be the county seat and at the election held last fall it is alleged that, by the manipulation of the ballots, it was made the permanent county seat. The people ot the town of Boston claim that Springfield bas not the f 5,000 worth of county property necessary to prevent the county seat from "being moved by a minority vote this fall. The only available building for a county Court House was a hotel building in Boston. A few weeks ago this was sold at a Sheriff's sale, and was bought by Springfield parties. Saturday night a party left Springfield for Boston with machinery costing $1,000, intending to move the building to the former town and nse it as a court bouse, thus pre venting tbe county seat issue beine raised this fall by reason of prominent improve ments being made. Boilers were put under the building, which is the finest in the county, aud three stories high, aud 20 teams were hitched to it. Inside the house were stationed 12 men with "Winchester rifles. The building was moved about five miles toward Springfield, which is about 25 miles from Boston, when the people of the latter place discovered the trick and imme diately organized. All available horses and rifles were brought into requisition and pursuit was made. Upon overtaking the party they com manded a halt, which was answered by a volley of shots from the men in the building. The Boston crowd then fired and a fierce battle raged, which ended in tbe Springfield party being driven from the building. Coal oil was then procured and the floors of the building saturated. It was then set on fire and entirely consumed. Great excitement prevails, but owing to the isolation of the towns, Springfield being over 50 miles from Lamar, tbe nearest railroad station, news is hard to obtain. Several parties arrived here irom Springfield last night and departed hurriedly after buying all the cartridges they could find in town. It is reported that several parties were seriously wounded and two killed during the fight, but the news is not authentic. TO DOWN A COAL TBTJST. ProceedlnEs Asnlnst a Combination of Teo nrsneo Companies. Nashville, September 25. Hon. John Buhm, United States District Attorney for Middle Tennessee, under the direction of the Attorney General of the United States, to day filed a petition in the Clerk's office against the companies owning or operating mines from which coal is shipped to Nash ville and all tbe coal dealers selling to con sumers, numbering three or four dozen com panies. The petition alleges that a combination or trust exists between the above corporations, firms and individuals to fix the prices for the Nashville coal market, and thus mo nopolize and control the coal trade in Nash ville. It alleges that prices are fixed by the combine at which coal shall be sold in Nash ville, and that local dealers obligate them selves not to buy from any minine company not a member of the exchange, wbile the mining companies obligate themselves not to deliver to any Nashville dealer wbo is not a member. The petition asks for an in junction in accordance with tbe provisions of the anti-trust law passed by Congress July 2, 1890, and is probably the first pro ceeding taken under the law.
