The Philadelphia Players' League team
of ball players made their last appearance
here this season yesterday at Exposition
Park. A crowd of 551 people paid to see
the contest. The grounds were very bad,
being tret and muddy.
The game was one of the lively kind as
the ball was banged around the lot in a
very merry style. At stages the ball was
thumped against the fence in rapid succes
sion. The home players were ontbatted.
but they hit the ball at opportune times
and also had numerous bases on balls.
Husted, who pitched for the visitors, was
just the kind of article that the Pittsburg
sluggers like, and Morris was somewhat
easy for the strangers. Mulvey was in good
batting form and so was Jocko Fields, who
made four hits out of four times at bat Con
sidering the grounds the fielding was tolerably
good on both sides.
The visitors btarted off as if they were going
to cobble Morris up without salt. Alter two
men were out Fojrarty thumped out a triple,
and Mulvey followed with a home run Into
middle field. This was awful. Wood got his
base on balls, but Pickett retired the side. In
the sixth inninc sincles by Mulvey. Wood and
doubles by Pickett and Milligan netted three
mns. 31ulveys triple in the eighth Inning and
a passed ball. Farrar"s single, an error by Rob
inson scored two more.
In the third inninc the home players made
two singles, and Visner's double and with
EecUev's sacntice scored three runs. Four
singles, an error by Wood and another by Milli
gan scored three more runs in the fifth. Morris
base on balls and Fields' tbree-bageer netted
another in the seventh. In the ninth, with the
score tied. Fields led off with a triple to center,
Visncr and Beckley folio ed with each a
double, scoring two runs and winuing the
came. The seore:

A BIO BASEBALL SEAL.
Clncinnnli to Become n Flayer' League
Club on fllonday
New York, October L The TTorW to-morrow
will print tho f ollowinc: Tho biggest deal
known in the annals of baseball will be made
In the St Nicholas Hotel, Cincinnati, at 10
o'olock next Saturday morning. By its
terms the famous Cincinnati Red Stock
ing Club will be transferred from
the National League to the Players'
Leagne on the following Monday. The final
arrangements for tho completion of the deal
were made in this city yesterday. The pur
chase will be made by a syndicate, composed of
some of the leading stockholders in five of the
present Players' League clubs, but the price to
be paid Messrs. Aaron S. Stern and Harry
Stern, the present owners of the club, will not
be divulged for the time being. All the stock
will be resold to Cincinnati capitalists.
Cincinnati has been generally regarded as
holding the key to the settlement of the exist
ing baseball conflict, and the purchase of that
club by a syndicate friendly to the Players'
League will be one of a series of moves which
has for its purpose the ending of the war.
During this month nearly all the Players'
League clubs will play a series of exhibition
games with the Reds, and the baseball enthusi
asts will thus be furnished a line upon which
the relative playing strength of the rival
leasues may be measured.

rBT.DCXLAP'S CABLE COMPANT.l
London. October L Richard K. Fox was
seen to-day by a reporter concerning Sullivan's
refusal to accept his backing in a fight with
Slavin. Mr. Fox said-
"My offer of $25,00u was made in good faith
and after due deliberation. Sullivan's opinion
of me personally does not enter into the matter
at all and is of no possible consequence. My
object was solely to keep the championship in
America and I believe Sullivan could do that.
As be has refused, why that ends it and there is
nothing further to be done about it. Slavin
and his backer claimed the championship belt
on Saturday last, as tbey desire to exhibit it
here in London. I thought if Suliivan fought
Slavin the belt would stay where it is. Regard
ing the Sullivan-Kilrain fight I did not have
one cent on the result and every ono who
knows me knows perfectly well that I never
bet."
New Jersey Men Won.
New York, October 1. The third game of
the series between the New Jersey and Detroit
Athletic Club teams was played at the Polo
grounds to-day and resulted in the second vic
tory for the New Jersey men by a score of 4 to
0. The game was a very well contested one.
The work of the victors was superb and has
probably never been excelled by a purely ama

A NOBLEMAN'S FKEAK.
Charged in Police Court With As
saulting and Robbing His Friend,
TO RECOVER A LADY'S LETTERS.
Death of an American Artist who Was Well
Known Abroad.
GENERAL NEWS FK0M OTEE THE SEA
TBY DUNLAP'S CABLE COMPANY.
London, October 1. A sensational case
came up at "Westminster Police Court this
afternoon. Sir Thomas Freake, who is well
known in society and in whose- house a
private theater forms a part of the menage,
was summoned for luring Edward Cousins
Gibson into an empty house in South Ken
sington, and there assaulting and forcibly
handcuffing him. Then Sir Thomas took
Mr. Gibson's keys from his pocket and going
to his club opened a box 'belonging to that
gentleman and took from it several photo
graph negatives and a packet of letters
which had been written by a lady to Mr.
Gibson and which he had refused to return
to her. Sir Thomas is likewise accused of
forging a telegram.
On the opening of the case Lawyer Crook
said that the prosecutor and defendant bad
been on the best of terms and hadjenjoyed
the greatest friendship for many years.
Both were on intimate terms with one lady,
and there was the strongest motive for the
defendant to secure, at all hazards, from
Gibson, certain letters which during the
time of their friendship the lady had written
to the prosecutor.
HOW FBEAKE GOT THE LETTERS.
On Monday morning last the lady met
Gibson at the Victoria station, and de
manded these letters of his, which he for
better security bad taken to his club and
placed in his locker. Subsequently the prose
cutor was invited by Sir Thomas Kreake to
lunch at Freake's bouse, at Onslow Gardens.
Following the luncheon, the defendant de
coyed Gibson to the empty mansion in the
Cromnell bouse, ostensibly to see some the
atrical scenery wbicb was being prepared there
for the private theater attached. It was an
easy matter, when they bad gone as far as
this, for Sir Thomas to lure Gibson into the
cellar, hich he had no sooner entered than he
was seized by several men, handcuffed, bound
and laid upon the ground. The lady who had
written theletters then appearedand demanded
the keys to his club locker. Gibson refused to
deliver them up andhe was then half strangled,
while the man hastily turned his pockets inside
out and secured the keys which Sir Thomas
took ind left the building with them, while the
others remained to guard Gibson. Freake went
directly to the St. George Club, secured the
letters and returned to the house. Then it
evidently occurred to the lady and himself that
there umrht be something he had neglected to
secure that was valuable, so be wrote a tele
gram reading:
To Hall Porter, St. George Club.
Send wooden box In my locker by messenger in
cab to A o. 89 Onslow Gardens,
and signed in Gibson's name. The cabman re
turned with the box, which contained a num
ber of photo negatives. In concluding, Mr.
Crook said: "I have no inteution of saying
an thing about the moral character of either
party. One is as bad as the other, but yet Gib
son was the victim of a gross outrage, and en
titled by the law to protection."
AN ACKNOWLEDGED BLACKGUABD.
Lawyer Lewis, attorney for Freake; ridiculed
the charge of felony, and said the prosecutor
bad behaved in a most blackguardly manner,
and it was Impossible for him to be painted any
worse than he had painted himself Id a letter
to Sir Thomas, wherein be said:
"First let me thank you for the kindness with
which you met me Friday. I can naturally
never expect such lorgiveness to continue after
all my blackguardly behavior. I wish you
thoroughly to understand there is nothing I
have not done to serve one who, at least I
thought, would be true to me. Ihave followed
you and watched you. I have read papers
which I bad no right to, and I have lost my
honor."
Mr. Crooks refused to withdraw the charge
without receiving a public apology on bebair
of bis client, and said that the Postmaster
General must proceed with regard to the
forged telegram. The lady's letters have al
ready been destroyed.
eventually the case was adjourned, and due
notice will be given when it is to be brought
forw-trd again. It was at the house of the de
fendant's mother, in Cromwell road. South
Kensington, near the museum of that name,
that Mrs. Langtry made her first appearance in
amatenr theatricals. Miss Freake, bir Thomas'
daughter, is a very prominent amateur actress,
and a couple ef years ago intended to adopt
the stage professionally. She did appear at
the Haymarket Theater for a short time, and
later on went on a tour in Devonshire and
Cornwall, but the strain and fatigne were too
much for her health and she eventually aban
doned the idea.
W. A. Shade, the well-known American
painter, died at Lucerne Friday night last. Mr.
Shade had resided for the past ten years in
Rome, leaving that city and arriving here on
the 10th of August, hoping the change would
improve bis health. Instead be has been grow
ing gradually worse. He was best known in
Germany, where he studied at both Dusseldorf
and Munich, as be did also at Paris and Rome.
Ue was an idealist in bis pictures entirely and
bis talent secured for him customers among
the very highest ranks, Uis painting, "First
Love," was bought by the Berlin National Gal
lery and "The Power of Love" found a pui
chaser in tbe Empress Frederick. Among his
other notable works were "L' Amour Teaching
the Nightingale to Sing," "Mother and Chil
dren." "Diana and Eudymion," The Flight
Into Egypt." which latter may perhaps be re
garded as bis principal work. He will be buried
at Lucerne.
At Dublin to-day Justice Holmes refused a
writ of prohibition to suspend tbe trial of Dil
lon and others at Tipperary, tbe ground for tbe
application being that Justice Shanton, one of
tbe resident magistrates who will try the case
is biased in bis judgment in this particular in
stance.
The inquest on the body of Edward Easton,
who suicided dnring tbe services at St. Paul's,
shows the deceased to have been a religious

bid for the cruiser was 53,025,000. The
Bath Iron Works, of Bafb, Me., offered to

with department's plan for 53,149.000, and
the Risdon Iron Works, of San Francisco,
offered to build one oi that class of vessels

In view of a provision of law that one oi

battle ships and the Cramps will probably
get the contracts for the other two battle

OPINIONS OK THE HEW TABLFF.
Philadelphia Enquirer: If the Republi
can majority had done nothing else but pass
this bill the verdict would have been "well
done."
New YORK Journal: The bill brings with it
one direct and saccharine boon; it makes sugar
from a cent to a cent and a half a pound
cheaper to the ordinary consumer.
New York Prett: The bill marks the most
distinct progress of tbe United States toward
tbe adoption of an American principle of gov
ernment for tbe American people since the es
tablishment of the Rccubllc. t
Buffalo Express: Tbe McKinley bill in!
its entirety is the most beneficial wbicb has
ever been passed. It will do even jnstice to all
more nearly tban any other law of its nature
which has yet been placed on tbe statute
books.
Indianapolis Journal: It is believed that
its enactment marks a new era in the develop
ment of the industries of thn country. Indeed,
tbe most absolute certainty of its enactment
has given confidence to the business and indus
try of tbe nation.
St. Louis Olobe-Demoerat: On the whole
the new tariff will help the Republicans In the.
Congressional canvass. Its good qualities more
tban offset the bad ones. Tbe Republicans
thus find themselves in a position tOj make an
aggressive and winning canvass.
Philadelphia Press: The bill left the
Senate much worse tban it came there. In the
conference room, under the influence of the
House conferees, all the distinctive features of
the McKinley bill were restored, and as it
finally passed, with two or three exceptions, it
is a measure In which every Republican should
take pride.
New York Tribune: It is a significant fact
tbat as to all its protective features tbe meas
ure bad the support of every Republican in
both branches of Congress, and tbe remarks of
Senators who voted against it showed clearly
that, bad the success of the Republican party
depended upon their votes, they would not

THE KEASOHS G1YEN FOR THIS CALL
rSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE PISPATCH.l
Philadelphia, October 1. Justus C.
Strawbridge, Chairman, and Herbert Welsh,
Secretary, of the Lincoln Republican Inde
pendent Committee, to-day issued the fol
lowing address to the soldiers of this State:
On the field of Gettysburg, the battle ground
of Pennsylvania, Abraham Llncolnsaid of the
men who fell there tbat they died in order that
government "of the people, by the people and
tor the people" should not perrsh from tbe
earth. Lincoln truly represented the people's
government; he himself was "of tbe people,"
plain of face and speech; "for the people" in
the devotion of bis life and in the sacrifice of
bis death: "by the people," in tbat he came to
power and held it, not by craft, but by their
sovereign will.
The Lincoln Independent Republicans ask
the men of Pennsylvania wbo remember Get
tysburg to consider tbe dangers which now
threaten that government of the people for
which both Abraham Lincoln and the soldiers
of Gettysburg died. The government of the
people is threatened by tbe government of the
party boss. The people's government, of
which Lincoln spoke, is one in which tbe peo
ple themselves choose the representatives wbo
shall manage their affairs, but in boss govern
ment it is the boss alonowho selects the man
for whom the people are allowed to vote.
Underlings carry out the boss will without a
murmur.
THEN AND NOW.
The man who bas a mind of his own and ex
presses it commits unpardonable sin be is
the outcast of bis party. Free expression of
opinion, fair argument on public policy is the
life of free government. By such methods
Lincoln conquered Douglass in their great de
bate. By making clear thoso trnths which he
saw and believed be became the first and
greatest leader of the Republican party.
It is not so under boss government. A boss
does not reason abont souud or unsoand policy
he turns tbe wheels of tbe political machine,
and bis will is done. Matthew S. Quay is the
boss of Pennsylvania. Unlike Lincoln he com
mands but does not argue. He shuns the air of
public opinion. Lincoln spoke to tbe mind and
tbe heart of the common people. He appealed
to public sentiment. Quay's skill is used to
stifle it.
At a recent great Republican meeting in Phil
adelphia, where leaders of tbe party from within
and withont the State were gathered, Quay,
tne most powerful of tbem all. did not appear,
and no one alluded to him. It would have been
bad politics to bave brought back to the public
mind the story of the Pardon Board, the re
corder's bill and a rifled Treasury. In a gov
ernment of the people, by the people and for
the people, a leader wbo dares not face tbe
world should step down and out,
COMPARED TO THE CZAR.
The government of which Lincoln spoke de
mands a free, courageous press, but boss gov
ernment, by a heavy hand or skillful manuver
ing, gags the press: it changes the free news
paper into tbe trameled official gazette, in
which the boss' praises are sounded and his
orders are carried out, but from which, should
his interests demand it, tbe words and tbe
movements of bis adversaries are excluded.
The bo.-s of Pennsylvania controls some news
papers as effectively as the Czar of Russia con
trols offending sheets within his own territory,
or blots out by tbe ink smears of bis censors
suspected printed matter which crosses his
frontier.
Those who believe in the people's govern
ment seek to influence the public mind on pub
lic matters by fair statement of fact and by
argument. Tbey know tbat such a government
depends for its right action and permanent
success upon tbe intelligence, knowledge and
wisdom of the people, anu tbey seek to appeal
to these aloue. Under boss government morals
have no place. Their every Influence is con
sidered fair it is right to get men's aid by the
bribes of office; the boss says nothing can ne
done withont such inducement: great corpora
tions are justified ii. letting their employes
know that dismissal follows a vote contrary to
their dictation; it is right for business firms to
put large sums of money into tbe bosses' hands
ana to shut their eyes while the bosses spend
it; it is right to do anything so vou win. Let
the voters of Pennsylvania reflect on these
things before November.
TO the soldiers.
Soldiers of Pennsylvania, you are called on
either to approve that Kind of government, for
which tbe blood of your brethren flowed at
Gettysburg, or that which maintains itself by
bribery, by corruption and the unrestrained
will of an unscrupulous man. You are asked
to cast your vote for a candidate for Governor
who calls himself a Republican, but who, if
Lincoln represented Republicanism, is not one
a candidate who was determined upon by
Quay two years ago. and who has publicly an
nounced that he Indorses wholly that platform
which wholly indorses Quay. He is therefore
the representative of boss rule, of Quay Re
publicanism. If. however, you cast your vote for the Demo
cratic candidate you do so for one whose rec
ord all may read for one of whom tho Repub
lican press once said that Ills administration
was pure, wise and safe. We ask jou, fellow
citzens of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
to make your choice between tbe government
of the people, by the people and for tbe people
and the government of, by and for the bosses.

SPECIAL WEATHER BITLLETIN.
It Rained Everywhere South of tbe Lakes
nnd East of the Mississippi.
PREPARED 'rOR THE DISFATCH.1
The weather yesterday was fair west of the
Mississippi, in tbe upper lake regions and New
England. Rain and cloudy weather prevailed
in all the States south of tbe lakes and east of
the MlssissippL There was no storm center,
and the rain was caused by the cooler weather
overspreading tbe Southern States. The high
pressure had its center over the New England
States, slowly working its way seaward, and al
lowing the rain area to move northward. It
was warmer in all parts, of the country, except
over the Dakotas and Minnesota, wbere the
temperature was from 6? to 8 abovo freezing.
Tbe winds were fresh to brisk on the coast,
generally northeast, except north on the New
I England coast.
BTVEB INTELLIGENCE.
Lobbyists Needed to Fash Free Navigation
Throasth Congress.
Captain John A. Wood said yesterday that he
was in favor of employing several good lobby
ists to goto Washington and keep tbe question
of free navigation on the Monongabela agi
tated. He thinks that this is the only way in
which the desired legislation can be obtained.
It was in tbat way that free locks on
the Kanawha were secured. Captain Wood
thinks that in years to come the Mooongahela
will be free, bat in that time all the coal opera
tors will be compelled to leave tbe business, or
lose everything tbey have invested in it. It
seems to be the prevailing opinion on tbe leves
that if the Monongabelia had been free last
year none of the operators would be out any
thing, and there would be a few more in the
business.
A gentleman connected with Gray's Iron Line
stated tbat the iron manufacturers on tbe
Tennesse river were doing a big business ship
ping Soutb, all of which was done at one time
from this city. He stated that they not alone
undersold Pittsburg in tbat market, but would
ship to this city at prices almost equal to tbat
demanded by Pittsburg manufacturers here.

LARGEST
-AND-
FINEST
STORE
-IN THE-
CITY.
Full and complete lines of first
class goods in every department of
our Big Stores are drawing large
crowds of buyers. Not Cheap
Goods, but
GOOD GOODS CHEAP,
The very best cash values. That'
what does it. The people appreciate
the fact that when we advertise a
thing we have it, and the article is
just what we advertise, as well as
the price. We don't pretend to sell
goods at J or J4 or J the price of
our competitors. We are satisfied,
and so are our customers, if we can
do a little better for them. This ws
try to do. Our customers pay us
cash, and we feel they ought to get
the benefit of cash prices. It costs
money to sell goods on credit Our
customers don't have to pay us
credit prices. You who have never
traded with us satisfy yourselves of
this fact. Not by the price of one
or two articles, but take a general
look, and see the uniformly low
prices, as well as the
Special Bargain Prices,
Now is the time you want
to buy, and now is the time we
want to sell. Our store rooms,
big as they are, are groaning under
the weight of the piles of new
goods. The best, the newest, of
everything here, and in plenty.
Silks, Dress Goods, Wraps, Jackets
and Cloaks. Made-up Suits and
Costumes for Ladies, Misses and
Children. Hosiery, Gloves, Under
clothing, Gents' Furnishing Goods,
Notions, Trimmings, Millinery,
Fancy Goods, Table Linens,
