DRAPE KKOWS ALL ABODT IT, Bnt Hb Won't Answer Questions for a Few Dajs Secretary JlcCracken's Opin ion About the Matter. TO-DAI'S GREAT FOOTBALL MATCH. BuiiaH Etiubsn ia Chicago (tatral Sporting Ktwj of the Dy. The public will learn with surprise that well defined efforts are being made once more to have Homewood Driving Park cut up into building sites. The rnmor was cur rent yesterday among business people, and a representative of this paper proved that the rumor was absolutely true. The information received was to the effect that Heal Estate Agent J. V. Dr3pe was, in be half of Mr. Charles Lockart, trying to buy a sufficient number of Homewood Driving Park Associatiou shares as to give a con trolling interest in the organization. That accomplished, the park would then be utilized lor building purposes. Sir. Drape was seen and questioned on the matter, and, in reply to the question: "Do you know anything abcut the deal going on regarding Homewood Park?" he said: "I Snow all about it, but I emphatically decline to answer any question, yeaornav." "Is there any possibility of the park being used for building sites in the near future?" was asked. "I don't want to be discourteous, but I tell you that I won't answer any questions. Come to me in about eight or ten days' time, and I'll tell you all about it. Secretary McCracken, of the association, was eeen, and in answer to a series ot ques tions, he said: "We are quite aware of what is g'ingon. Wc know that Mr. Drape is trying to secure stock for Mr. Lockart so as to give him nnd his friends the power to break the tr.ick up into building lots. It is being stated that Mr. Lockart and his friends have a controlling interest already, but that is not true. If it was true they would not be going round trying to purchase more stock. Some time ago Mr. Lockart purchased a quantity of stock, doubtless with the notion that the property would be converted into building sites. However, let me tell you that there is little or no fear of any such change being made. Those who have at present the majority of stocc mean to hold on to it, and we'll have races at Homewood next year as usual." Another official ol the association who de clines to have his name made public says: "There will indeed be a stubborn fight this time over the future of the park. I am in possession ol al me lacts ot the case, and while I do not think that the park wiil be sold, I am free to admit that those who are ruakingeflbrts to have it sold are working very hard aud with some little success. But even i: Mr. .Lockarl and his friends secure a ma jority ol stock there may be another snag ahead of them that they are not looking for. It is a pity that the news has become pub lic, but now that it has, my opinion is to the cflect that those who want to sell the park will not succeed. "Ve need a race course, and I feel confident that the Home wood track will be retained. The least said about the matter at present the better." A TALK WITH MB. COWAK. The Princeton Football riay er Arri es and Nija a Few AVortls. Hector VV. Cowan, manager and captain of tho Princeton preparatory lootball team ar rived in the city yesterday, and bis team will arrive to-day to contest against the Allegheny Athletic Association eleven at Imposition Park this afternoon. Mr, Coasn is one of the most genial gentlemen among football players; be is an excellent player, and extremely well in formed on questions relating to the game He paid a visit to The Disis.tch oflicc last even ing, and during a conversation on lootball matters generally, bo taid: "Tbe right for the championship this year will !e a bard ono I am inclined to tbink that Priuccton will defeat Yale. Both teams are new, but I think that Princeton is improving more than Yale. However, asl have just biid, the struggle between Yale and Princeton will, in all likelihood, be a severe one. If Princeton and Harvard bboulci meet 1 have- reason for thinking that Princeton will win. True, Har vard's team Are pla3iug tbo better of the two r.l present, but the players are all old bands and cannot improve. On the other band Princeton's team are all new men and are improving every day, and iben tho time comes lor them to meet Harvard, it they do meet, the Princeton boy will be in irrear form. lam vert glad to Luow that football is booming so much here and at oiher iil.icca. X think wo will have a great contest ai Imposition Park to-morrow." Mr. Cowan was for four years a member of the regular team at Princeton. He is a Gradu ate of the Theological College and will enter the luinistery next year, probably going West. Mr. Fine, who is to play center rush for tho Pieps, has not played in a championship con lot. He is a powerful man. weighing about 20 pounds, and in the opinion of Mr. Cowan is a cuod plaj cr. To-day's match will commence promptly at 5:34 The home team wilt be made as strong as possible; the eleven will be selected from the iolloHing 13 nlayers: Tounley, Brown, Ham mond. Campbell, J.

After the match Mr. Cowan is to be tendered a dinner by a. number of his Pittsburg friends. TWO GOOD MATCHES, Pennsylvania and Princeton Each Has a Very Llely Victory. IFrECIAL TELEOKAH TO TUt DtSriTCn.1 Washington, October 3L Lovers of foot ball in this section bad an abundance of sport this afternoon, two contests being waged simul taneously, one at Capitol Park between tbe Pennsylvania tlmverjity team and representa tives of tho University ot Virginia, the result being a decisive victory lor the Keystone Sate lads by a score of 72 to 0; and a second game on Analo-tar. Inland between tbe champion Prince ton eleven and a team representing the Colum bvi Athletic club. Captain Poe's men coming till victorious by a score of 60 to 0. .It was evident from the outset of the Oni 'feraity game that tbe Pennsylvania's were too TKiaerfiil for the Virginians, although Lucas, full back, and Lee. center rush, showed them selves to be excellent kickers and tacklers. Captain Cnurch, of the Pennsylvania eleven, placed bis men as follows: Adams, center: Bovrcn, right guard; Griffith, right tackle: Schoff, end rush; Thornton, left guard; Dewey, lett tackle; Williams end: Vail, quarter back; Ctinrrb, right half back: Camp, lelt half back, and Tbajer. full back. For the Virginians there were: Lee. center: Earlv. left guard: 'unuingUam, right guard: Parrish. right tackle: Ainslie, left tackle; Greenway. right end; Wbitaker. left cud; Captain Dagget. quarter back; Elliott. left half back; Dabney. ' rizbt half back, and Lucas, full back. When the tlrst bait ended tbe score stood 40 to 0 in favor of the Penn"j 1 vania eleven, and the sec ond bout they added 32 to their score. The feature of tbe contest, however, being a long kick by Lucas, which narrowly missed the goal. Over at Anolastan Island there was an excel lent turnout, upwards of 1,000 spectators wit nessing the short aiia the nlucky fight made by tbe Columbia team against their skillful oppo nents evoked the greatest enthusiasm. Consid ering the fact that tbe team of the Colcinhias are comparatively new and untried football p!aver. tbe score of the victors. 60 to 0, is not at all discouraging to the promoters of the came of thi- vicinity. Princeton's team com prised Warren, Wood, Thomaf. Biggs, Jeffer miii, "ipeer, Fnrniss, Poe, King, Spicer ana Ho-iii.-in-. Columbia's colors were upheld bv Tay lor. Harban, Wade. Ilanler.

Tho statement published here yesterday to the effect that tbe capitalists of the Brooklyn (P. L.) club had met and decided to go "ahead and" finish nego tiations with the backers of the Brooklyn (N. L.) club created a great deal of talk among tbe players. It was another blow which was hardly expected by them, but it onlv made the argu ment more convincing that the capitalists in tend to do business without any help from tbe Brotherhood. Although this state of affairs bas been per fectly understood br the pnblic in general, yet tbe players have held fast to the thread which they imagined could not be broken. But they see it being cut strand by strand, and they have awakened to a realization of what it all means. They begin to see that the capitalists are fixing matters, and that tbe only thing they can ao is to make tbe best of a bad job. The backers of tho two Brooklyn teams will try to get tbe consolidation deal settled by No vember 11, on which date is held tbo annual meeting ot the Players' League. President Byrne and Wendell Goodwin, of tbe Brooklyn National and Players' League clubs, respect ively, have met and talked matters over, but it will take several talks before ail tbe minor de tails can be settled. One of the most prominent players of tbo New York (P. L.) club said yesterday: "I guess the jig is up with us. Wo have fought bard, but it looks as if we bave been downed, principally through the efforts of two or three outsiders who were working for personal alms, and to save themselves more than to help tbe Brotherhood. Hereafter, I shall look out for myself and nobody else. It looks as if it will be a great case of hustle for some ot u to get places next season. I shall take tbe first op portunity that is offered, and 1 don't intend to wait for somebody to ask me if I am willing." A CHICAGO SENSATION. Rumors of a Big Baseball Seal Going on Among Rival Magnates. Chicago, October 31, The baseball situa tion hero is ripe for a surprise, and something sensational may be expected within the next few days. There has been talk of the Brother hood, or Players' club here, buying out the National League club, but no one believes there is anything in it in fact, it would not be a matter of surprise should tbe National League club purchase tbe Players' club, at a Erice something below what the Players' bave een putting it at in the past. It would be a good deal to Mr. Spalding to get tbe Brother hood grounds on the Soutbslde, as his club will be compelled to move shortly from where it has been claying on the West Side, owing to the expiration of tbe lease. There have been numerous conferences lately between President Addison and Directors Weidcnfuller. Murdough and others of late, and it means something. Secretary Brunell has been called in also, and it is thought something may be done within a week. Some of the mem bers of tbe Players' club would not like to come under Anson's rule again, notably Pfeffer. bnt most of tbem are not particular. They f nlly appreciate the fact, also, that salaries will be reduce? next season, but they expect that under any circumstances. It is notthought that any of the Brotherhood players here will kick on a reduction even should tbe present Players' club work under tbe present management next 6eason, for tbe coming few months promise to alter baseball conditions materially. DEMPSEY AND HTZSIMMOIfS. The Nonpareil Has Not Signed Articles to Fight the Australian. New Yoek, October 3L Walter De Bann. Jack McAuliff e's partner, received a letter yes terday from Jack Derapsey, who is in Portland, Ore. The middle-weight champion states that he is anxious to arrange tbe much-talked-of match with Bob Fitzsimmons. Tbe Galveston Athletic Club bas offered a purse of $12,200 for tbe contest, an increase of 5.00 over tbe bid put in by tbe Olympic Club of New Orleans. Dempsey has not decided which be will accept, but is waiting to bear from Fitzsimmons, who is giving boxing exhibitions with Jimmy Car roll in the South. James Kennck, a son of Pat Kenrlck, the widely known New Orleans sporting man, writes Prof. Mike Donovan that Fitzsimmons confidently expects to defeat Dempsey in less than 16 rounds. "Almost everybody here," Kenrick writes, "wno pretends to know anything about tbe manly art, thinks that Dempsey will meet bis second Waterloo if be fights Fitzsimmons. One thing is certain, Fitzsimmons will be the favorite." Football at Lehigh. South Bethlehem, October 31. The Le high University Football team bas been train ing very bard this week. The men have all played in their usual positions with the excep tion of Emery and Donnelly, BelOeld taking Emery's place at left and Donnelly playing back of tbe line.

Thomas Lynch, General Manager of the mines near this place, made to-day tbe following state ment to The Dispatch: Permit me to say a word in regard to the discbarge of AndyVerostlc at our Tip Top Mine, and the gross misstatement made through the columns of tbe Pittsburg papers by Robert Watchorn. No one denies that the Frick Coke Company is a responsible party, and is working under a legal contract with its employes. Now, if it bas dealt unjustly with Verostic or any other of its employes, and vio lated its contract with its workmen, as Mr. Watchorn charges it his repeatedly done, why does not Mr. Watchorn bring the company into court and compel it to give justice to its em ployes and live up to its contract.the same as tbe company brought Mr. Watcborn and his fellow officials into court and compelled tbem to live up to the contract at tbe standard Works anout a month ago? Sucb a fair and law abiding set of men.as Mr. Watchorn would bave us believe ho and bis as sociates are should not be afraid to trust tbe courts. I will agree to pay Mr. Watchorn's at torney fees if be will go into conrt and show where we have failed to live up to the letter and spirit of tbe contract with our employes. I will go further, and say, while I bold that the employer should be the judge of the fitness or unfitness of his employes.I will in tbis instance waive what I believe to be my right in that re spect in order to give Mr. Watcborn an oppor tunity to make good bis statement and bave bis men reinstated, and will agree to submit to the Judge of the Court of Common Pleas of either Fayetto or Westmoreland counties, tbe case of Verostic and all other men wbo bave been discharged and not reinstated, at any or all ot our 22 plants since the present contract went into effect on the 10th day of February last. It tbe Court, after making full investiga tion and bearing both sides, says that the dis charge of all or any one was not just and right and not in accord with the contract under which we are working, I will reinstate all of tbem and pay all the costs of tho investigation. Thomas Lynch, General Manager. Master Workmau Kerfoot says: "I venture the assertion that not a single miner will be at bis post of duty nest Tuesday, unless the dis charged committeeman, Verostic, is reinstated. Mr. Lynch bas notified us that our notices are wrong; that the grievances are not stated, and that they are not properly dated ana signed. After obtaining legal advice we are fully convinced that they are right, and will posi tively not be withdrawn." FIGHTING THE MINE ELSE. Explorers at Work on the Last Difficult Section of the Mine. tSrECIAI. TELIORAM TO THI I8ATCn.l Dunbar, October 3L The dumping places around tbe mouth of the Hill Farm Mine show very plainly the charred and burned matter that is being hourly placed there. The fire now in the mine is among the falling timbers, posts, etc., covered by gob, which makes it very hard to reach. Huge pieces of charcoal are being hauled out with the coke, and this sort of tinder is especially thick about "Jacob's ladder," the point now reached. An immense stream of water is now being pumped into tbe mine by an engine at the mouth of tbe mine. By Monday they expect the sixth section will be ready to be cleared. There are grave fears that the surrounding mines will be flooded with water, and it Is thought the water in the Hill Farm Mine has reached the highest point, as the water in the Ferguson Mine is rising now, and must be drawing from tbe former. There is no truth wbatever tbat wearing ap parel and other belongings of the miners bave been found, for as yet they are absolutely un known. After tbe sixth section is passed the bulk of the fire will be more easily subdued, and explorations can be made with less danger to tbe men working, and it is expected some thing definite of tbe fate of the imprisoned men will be known. THE ITALIAN MYSTEBY. Officials Disputing Over the Money of a Mnrdered Man. rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCH.l Steubenyille. October 31. The $234 taken from Gallo's person after he was murdered by Carose, is still in the possession of Marshal Scott, while Coroner Starr thinks be ought to have possession of it. Tbe law provides that all bills against such deceased persons shall be paid, and the remainder turned over to the county until heirs turn up to prove their property. Marshal Scott is still in Pittsbnrg, though he bas not found any trace of Carose. It is likely that the latter bad gone on through the city and to New York, trora which place he has probably sailed for Italy. It is said he was one nf tbe men blown up in the explosion on the Hocking Valley Railroad a few sears ago, and it was there he received his marks, a crooked mouth, teeth niissinc and one eye gone. It will be remembered that Carose decoyed Gallo to the place where be was murdered, and told him he was going to kill him. No reason was given, and it is supposed it was one of the many secret society murders laid to the doors of the Italians. SEW KATDBAE GAS FIELD.

State of the Iron Trade Good, 1at Some what Disappointing. INCEEA8ED EXPORTS AND 1HP0ETS rSrECIAL(TELEGRAX TO THE DIPATCB.t New York, October 31. Special tele grams to Bradstreet's point to a liberal vol ume of merchandise in process of distribu tion, in few, if any, instances less than a week ago. The movement of produce is freer than it has been, so far as wheat, cot ton and sugar are concerned, but less so with reference to Indian corn and oats.. Although the return flow of currency from the South and West to New York has not set in with any appreciable force, the de mand on New York for currency to go to the agricultural districts bas been checked. The improvement in the bank statement last week was due to other causes than in creased supplies of funds among clearing house banks. There has been no greater ease in tbe money market. Time money continues scarce, and call loans are firm at I6 per cent. Stock speculation at New York is feverish and unsettled, the threaten ing position of Western railway affairs and the litigation in connection with the Sugar Trust reorganization leading to bear attacks and declining tendencies in prices. BUSINESS OF THE BANKS. Bank clearings at 53 cities for the week ended October 30 are 51,251,771,753 an in crease over this week last year ol 6.9 per cent. New York City's clearings, which constitute 61.6 per cent of the grand total, are more than those for the same period last year by 2.1 per cent, while at 52 other cities tbe gain is 15.6 per cent. Tbe iron trade has been disappointed at tbe prolonged delay in the appreciation of prices. Demand keeps up well, but will not warrant any advance. At some points in the "West the request for iron, crude and structural, has actually declined. Steel rails are not so firm as last week. Coal is nominally advanced 10c per ton. Petroleum is dull speculatively, but in good actual de mand. Philadelphia worsted spinners are said to be buying wool freely, and manufacturers in several lines at Boston are confidently count ing on still higher prices. At San Fran cisco wheat exports are free, and promise to be freer. Funds are easy there, with tbe arrival of $2,000,000 from Australia on Monday. Good weather and a heavy crop movement have helped general trade at leading Southern cities. FBODUCEAND STOCK. Although bides are dull, leather is firm and active. Hogs, with free arrivals "West, are 10c lower, and cattle are also lower on preva lence of light weight arrivals. Coffee is dull and weak on a report that Brazil will remove export duty, and notwithstanding reports of crop shortages in other parts ot the world. Sugar (raw) is off l-16c, and refined yi to 3-16c on restricted demand. The world's sugar crop of 1SU1, it is esti mated, will exceed that of this vear by 175, 000 tons. Exports of wheat (and flour as wheat), both coasts, continue larger than antici pated, owing to a free movement from the Pacific coast ports. Tbe total shipped this week is 1,994,670 bushels, against 1,782,885 bushels last week, and 1,593,352 bushels in the like week last year. The total exported July 1 to date, one-third ot the cereal year, anproximate 32,750,918 bushels, against 34, 234,455 bushels in a like portion in 1889, 40,240,000 bushels in 1888, and 57,608,000 bushels in 1887. Wheat has fluctuated con siderably, but on the wboie tends to main tain a good deal of its strength, with a net gain of 1 cent. JIINOE GRAINS. Indian corn stocks are decreasing and the demand is quite active. Prices have ad vanced 2 cents. Oats are in fair supply, but with decreasing stocks quotations are up 1 cent on tbe week. Hog products and provisions are a shade higher. Drygoods are in moderate demand in reg ular lines. Auction sales'of American silks and price concessions by jobbers have in duced a large distribution. October jobbing thus far this year exceeds that in 1889. Prices at first bands are firm, and there is no unusual accumulation. "Woolens are quiet and steady. The large auction sale of silks this week resulted in prices 10 per cent below regular rates. Wool is in good demand and unchanged. Manufacturers are well supplied. Stocks are smaller than usual at this date. Cotton is weak and c lower on large movement, depressed foreign advices and restricted de mand. Business failures reported to Bradstreet's number 104 in the United States this week, against 202 Inst week and 251 this week last year. Canada had 30 this week against 33 iast week. The total number of failures in tbe United States from January 1 to date is 8,353, against 9,383 in alike portion of 1889. B. Q, DUN'S VERSION. Dun's weekly review says: The approach of election has caused some slackening of trade at many points, which is obviously temporary. At a tew cities, notably St. Louis, there is observed a reaction from tbe great activity which prevailed just before the new tariff went into effect, the demand for the time having been satisfied by deal ings in anticipation of that measure. But at nearly all cities trade continues remark ably large, nnd the payment through all Clearing Houses outside of New York for the month of October will probably be the largest ever recorded in any month, exceed ing those of last October by abont 15 per cent aid those of last May, which were 52,037,000,000 and the largest ever kuown by K Xf JUL rJ7 ,v,E7vg--- Lydia PiNKHASf : " My son , I was just thinking how our little group of three generations so strongly demonstrates and "illustrates my theory of the transmission of health from mother to child, and what can be more striking thau the fact that my vigorous healthis reproduced in your darling children."

PINKHAM ME&. CO.. LYNN, MASS. I VL 1 : a j about 10 per cent? Foreign trade for the month will certainly prove much fhelargest ever known, and the great industries are all unnsuall active. -. , MANUFACTUBrNG INTERESTS. Boston notes' increasing capacity of the largest woolen mills. Manufacturers are paying advanced prices for wool. Hides are lower, butjeatheryery firm. Philadel phia reports wool very firm, and the trade healthy and promising; a greater trade than ever before in paper, stationery, printing and leather prbdncts. At Chicago receipts of grain fall below last year's, and hides and wool a third; but cured meats and dressed beet show an in crease. The drygoods and clothing trades surpass last year's, and the shoe trade as Well, though lately less active. St. Louis finds trade perceptibly weaker, with retail trade fairly active but feverish. Cleveland notes good trade except in cloth ing, and manufacturers are busy. Detroit reports good trade and active manufactur ing; St. Paul very good trade, and Minne apolis a flour output of 175,000 barrels, with wheat receipts 2,000,000 bushels. Kansas City notes satisfactory trade, aud Denver fair. Milwaukee notes steady trade, im proving with cooler weather. SOT7THEBN BUSINESS THRIVING. At the South, business is thriving. New Orleans reports large receipts ot sugar and rice and good priced, though baling of cot ton is hindered by weather, but at Galves ton trade improves with better weather and orders are free. It may be said, moreover, that reports as to collections throughout the country are more satisfactory. There is scarcely a men tion of complaint or tardiness; the money markets are about as last reported, thongh firmer with a sharp demand at Boston, firm but easier at Philadelphia, still tight at Chicago and scarce at 7 to 8 per cent at St. Louis, somewhat stringent with large demand at Cleveland and Detroit, strong at 7 per cent at Milwaukee, tight at Savannah, and witb good demand at Denver, but easy at Kansas City, and easier in spite of the demand at New Orleans. The rates at New York have varied widely. The demand for the interior does not cease. IRON STRONGER, STEEL WEAKER. The great industries are doing more on the whole than at any time in the past. While iron prodnction is at the maximum and market at Philadelphia is "very mixed," iron seems stronger and steel weaker. Best foundry iron is unchanged here, at Philadelphia and at Pittsburg, but Bessemer iron is weak and at Pittsburg lower, with steel rails 50 cents lower. Dis agreements in tbe association are reported, and the market here is demoralized, with sales reported at $29 "at mill. In bar and plate iron large orders are less frequent, but the mills are busy and small orders are ac tive. Copper is sold by outside parties at 16.62 cents; tin is steady at 21.50 cents, and Jead strong at 5.90 cents. October trade in coal was below expectations, but an advance of 10 cents in price has been ordered, and the output for November fixed at 3,250,000 tons. Cotton is a quarter lower with goods un changed aud in active demand and takings by Northern spinners fully up to last year's. FARM. PRODUCTS. The packing business is heavy and prices of pork products steady, with hogs 60 cents per 100 pounds lower. Speculation has not been remarkably active in breadstuff's, though wheat is cent higher on sales of 22,000,000 bushels, and corn has risen cents on sales of 9,000,000 bushels, oats being of a cent stronger also. Oil has declined about 3 cents on small trading. Sugar, both raw and refined, is & shade lower. But the general average of prices, because ot tbe advance in bread stuffs, potatoes and dairy products, is a frac tion higher than a week ago and 8.6 per cent higher than a year ago. This accounts, in part, for the enormous volume of ex changes throughout the country, but there remains an apparent increase ot over 6 per cent in tbe volume of business, exclusive of tbe difference in prices. The exports from this port for fonr weeks bave been $10,000,000 larger in value than last year, wheu October exports for the whole country were nearly $98,000,000, which indicates for the month much the largest movement on record. Imports here, also, show an increase over last year ot $15,000,000, so that the aggregate lor the month mav reach $80,000,000.
