Jacksonville, April 13. Five hun
dred people saw the game of ball between
Cleveland and Pittsburg to-day.
Pittsburg was not in it. Their ambition
was batted out in the first inning and Cleve
land had a picnic.
That portion of the mundane sphere in
closed in the fence was wiped up with them,
liigid practice of Cleveland handicapped
them. From the first the heavy hatting of
the Cleveland knocked the Pittsburgers
out and thereafter playing was merely me
chanical. They haven't gotten their eyes
yet and the Clevelands had a walk over.
Young did well in the box, while several
in each club did fine batting, one sphere
coins over the fence. Several two-base hits
were made. Tbe weather is delightful and
both c!uls arc in fine trim, good health and
spirits; 14 to 2 was the score. The score:

WILL BELEASE FOUR
When King; Comes Galvin, Smith, Maul and
Fields Will Go.
"Silver" King, the St. Louis pitcher, did not
arrive in Pittsburg yesterday, and will not be
here until Thursday or Friday. This morning
he will sign an agreement to play in Pittsburg
this season, providing it Is understood that the
reserve rule docs not apply to him. He would
have signed a contract j-esterday afternoon
had there been one in St. Louis, but tho agree
ment will just be as binding.
Attorney Joy is representing the Pittsburg
clnb in the matter and j esterday wired Presi
dent O'Xeil terms as to advance money. Mr.
O'Neil agreed to tbe terms and requested that
King sign the acrecment referred to and leave
for Pittsburg Wednesday evening. It n. there
fore, likely that the matter will be definitely
settled to-day.
Referring to the matter yesterday President
O'Neil said: "Before we aro many hours older
King will sign an agreement which will bind
iirn to Pittsburg. Tins is certain. Who will
we release? Well, we cannot keep more than
four pitcher and vie look upon King. Staley.
Stratton and Baldwin as tlrst-class. That, of
couise, means that Maul. Smith. Qalvm and
Fields ill have to go. The last named is not
a pitcher, certainlv. but we have not room for
him. I can get all of them well placed. Al
ready three clubs are after Smith. Maul will
soon get an engagement, and I can place Gal
vin in Philadelphia, Fields, too. Is In demand.
Most certainly we would like to keep Galvin,
but any fair-minded man will know that wo
cannot keep five pitchers."
Mr. O'Neil coutinued:i"Klng is practicing
every day in fat. Loui, and when he comes
here I will gijt him a catcher so that bo can bo
practicng right up to the time of tbe return
of tbe team."
A Foolish Resolve.
A rumor was current among local amateurs
yesterday that the baseball club of the Alle
gheny Athletic Association had resolved to nut
be connected with the A. A U. contests. If
anv such course has been resolved upon it Is
verv foolish as a team representing tbe associa
tion irftue A. A. U. would bringthe association
before tbe amateur world. Even if the team
was beaten that would be no disgrace, this
beingitshrstyear. There must be abeginning
and better have it now.

MYEE IS WEAEY.
Tho Western Cyclone ays a Few Words
, About Jack McAuliffo.
CHICAGO, April 13. Billy Myers, who is
matched to fight Andy Bowen at New Orleans
May 19, came up from Streator yesterday jo
purchase training supplies and returned home
last night. The "Cyclone" has not yet settled
down to systematic training, but as his general
health was never better, and as be has very lit
tle superfluous flesh to take off, he has no bard
work ahead of him, and is confident that ho
will dispose of Bowen in short order. Myer
feels very bitter toward McAuliffe, speaking of
whom he said:
"Since the unsatisfactory ending or our first
meeting at North ,Tudtn I have spent SI, 000 in
cash, not to speak of months of valuable time,
trying to get on a match with him. I have
several times gone to New York and bnng my
money over his own door, but every tune he
has either evaded the issue or crawled. We
succeeded after hard work in getting him to
commit himself to a match and post a forfeit
with Bud Renaud, binding him to meet me at
New Orleans and it looked as thoucb ray hopes
were about to be realized, but he flunked again
and his backers are now crjing to get their
money back. I'm disgusted with McAuliffe,
and tbe next time he talks fight to me the peo
ple in the immediate vicinity will see a bit of a'
scrap that will cost them nothing."
F1TZ3IMM0NS AND SMITH.
The Denver Man's Backer Wants to Meet
tho Australian To-Day.
Bob Fitzsimmons, the champion middle
weight pngilist, arrived in the c,uy last evening.
He was not surprised that Hall's backers had
declined to match tbe latter to fight him, Fitz
simmons. Tbe champion is in excellent condi
tion and is willing to fight any man for tbe
middleweight championship providing the
purse or stakes are worth fighting for. Ho
does not object to meet Ed Smith, if tbe latter
can secure sufficient backing to make it worth
while training for a chamoionship contest. He
expects to arrange a match with Ted Fritchard
this year.
Regarding the challenge of Ed. Smith to
fight Kitzsimmons, the barker of Smith said
last evening: "I want Fitzsimmons to state
deilnitely whether be will'fUht Smith for 1,000
a sido in private, under London prize ring
rules, or for that amount and a purse under
Queensberry rules. Smith may be able to
secure a stake of 32,500 a hide. At any rate, if
Fitzsimmons declines to make a match with
Smith tne latter will certainly claim tbe cham
pionship." Smith's forfeit is still at this office, and his
backer wants to meet Fitzsimmons here tbis
alternoon, to see what can be done toward
making a matcTi.
The Tale Crew Criticised.
New Havex, April 13. In criticising tho
crew last night. Captain Cook said: "I cannot
as yet form an opinion of the crew, for they are
as you might say simply new beginners. Tlioy
are a heavy lot of men empowered with great
strength, and it depends whether wo shall be
able to utilizo it. It is-too early yet to make
any predictions. I will say, however, that they
show a willingness to row that is seldom
equalled cither In a new crew or even an old
one; time will tell whether their willingness to
row will prove beneficial. They seem to be
doing well, but it will reqnire "an immense
amount of practice to put them n proper con
dition. As to individual work, some of them
are progressing much faster than others, but
the rudiments have yet to be mastered. As to
to the make-up of tbe crew I cannot say, for I
do not know. I shall come to New Haven
again very soon. I cannot say when at the
present time, for I have my business to at
tend to."
Dacy to McAuliffe.
New York, April 13. Billy Dacy has issned

KILLED BYBURGLABS.
Horrible Murder in a Large Country
Houso in Maryland.
A WOMAN SHOT DOWN IS CEP,
While f Iler Husband Is Also Mortalljr
Wonnded by the Thieves.
PIEBCE FIGHT' WITn 'THE BDEGUES
ISrZCIAL TELEOHAM TO THE DISFATCIt.l
Elkton, JId., April 13. This morning
abont 1 o'clock a horrible murder was com
mitted at the pretty home of J. Granville
.Richards, at Porter's Bridge, in this county.
Tbe country around is in a feverish state of
excitement ov.er the crime. The circum
stances of the terrible affair, as they are
learned to-day, are substantially as follows:
At 1 o'clock tbis morning Mrs. Richards
was awakened from a sound sleep by a noise
in the direction of the bureau in her bed
room. She listened and beard enough to
satisfy her that something was wrong, and
then, peering into the darkness, she saw the
faint outlines of two men. She screamed,
awaking her husband. As soon as she did
this one ol the ruffians approached her bed
side, and, placing a revolver close to her
head, fired. The ball entered tbe brain
close behind the left ear. Tbe husband by
this time had raised himself to a sitting
position in his bed, and .he at once became
the target of the other burglar, the ball
from bis revolver taking effect in Mr.
Bichards' left groin.
Could Have Killed One.
Mr. Bichards had a revolver in his hand
and fired two shots, both of which missed
their mark, but he says he could have shot
one of them dead, but for the supposition
that the other figure might be that of his
oldest son, and this kept, him from firing in
that direction. Meanwhile tbe wife lay in
an unconscious 3nd dyimj condition on the
bed, ber lire blood pouring from the large,
gaping wound, but she lingered on until
about 5 o'clock this morning, when she
died.
Mr. Bichards, though shot in a critical
manner, leaped from his bed, though fast
weakening from the loss of blood, and
rnshed upon his wife's murderers. At the
top of the stairway leading into his room he
had a hand-to-hand battle with the ruffians,
(luring which one of them sent another pis
tol ball into bis abdomen. The shock threw
him down a flight of stairs, and he was fallen
upon by the murderers and badly beaten
with an iron bar. Here bis arm and wrist
were broken and he was badly cut about the
neck and face.
His Death Almost Certain.
This afternoon his condition was very
critical, and there is but little hope of his
recovery. The other inmates of the house
were his children, all boys, the oldest being
about 17 and the youngest 7 years pld.
They did not hear the noise attending the
murderous attack on their parents. They
slept in a remote portion of the large build
ing. A servant girl sleeping in a room in the
back portion of the house was not aroused
until the murderers were about leaving the
premises, when considerable noise was made
by them in their hurry to get away. Bich
ards is about 33 years of age and his wife
was about one year his junior. He holds a
position as examiner in the Baltimore cus
tom house and it has been his custom to only
be at his borne on Saturday and Sunday
nights.
The thieves took with them money to the
amount of abont $100 and two watches, one
a gold one, also several Government bonds,
aggregating abont $4,000. The tide of sym
pathy and indignation is running verybigb,!
and if tbe murderers are captured lynching
will probably follow. Searching parties
were organized and every effort is being
made to bring the fugitives to justice.

89 FIFTH AVENUE,
SAMUEL GOMPERS HERE',
The Great Exponent of Shorter Works Days
Will Speak at Lafayette Hall To-If ight
Work of tho Mining Commission labor
Notes.
President Samuel Gompers, of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor, came to the city
yesterday.and will deliver one of the greatest
.lectures of his life in Lafayette Hall to
night on the eight-hour question. Mr.
Gompers is considerably fatigued after his
long journey from New York to the Pacific
coast and back, but his trip has been such a
succes, and the great exponent of shorter
work days has- been given so many ovations,
that his spirits have been kept np.
Mr. Gompers is not stopping at a hotel
this trip. Upon his arrival in the city
yesterday, he was met by William Martin,
ex Vice President of the Federation, with
whom be was associated for several years,
and at whose home he is now being enter
tained. Mr, Gompers endeavored, to keen
away from the reporters, preferring to wait
and do bis talking to-night. He fell into
their snares, however. Talking about tbe
coming miners' fight, which is the most im
portant labor topic to-day, he said:
"Their strike is a certainty. I am afraid
the operators will be very much surprised
at our strength. If they are depending on
our.inability to endure a strike to win, they
will be sadly mistaken. We have good
financial backing, and can get 'more if
needed. I am surprised that the operators
refused to entertain the very fair propo
sitions made to them by the miners. They
asked so little, and did not insist on any but
a verbal agreement until the men could
makehhe movement general. They will
discover that Colonel Beud's position wonld
have been the ocst for them to take before
thev get through."
Mr. Gompers would not express himself
on the coke troubles nor on the coming car
penters' strike. While in San Francisco he
addressed an audience of over 10,000 peo
ple. At Denver he addressed both Houses
of tbe Legislature, and in nearly all of tbe
cities visited the meetings were presided
over by the Mayors. Mayor Gourley will
not allow the record to be broken. Great
preparations bave been made for tbe meet
ing to-night. It will be attended by a large
number of business men and manufactur
ers, to whom special invitations have been
sent.
Mr. Gompers will go directly from here to
New York, where he will arrange for an
inauguration of tbe eigbt-hour movement
May 1.
Counterfeit Notes Are Small.
St. Lonls Globe-Democrat.!
All counterfeit norps are smaller than
Government bills. Government plates are
made a little larger than the finished notes
to allow for the shrinkage of the paper. In
counterfeiting money a new note is pasted
ou a polished steel plate and transfer paper
placed over it. The work i3 then tiaced
with a fine pencil. The bills made when
damped shrink, and are therefore a trifle
smaller than the genuine.
