Good winners can laugh.
And certainly, when anybody finishes
with 3 to 1 the best of
it, there is room for a
' lausrh to come in.
That is just the way
the series of ball
games between the
home representatives
and the Cleveland
team ended yesterday.
Out of the four
games Cleveland got
one, and the home
leilows got three. At
that rate of progres
sion the local players
conld surelv land pen
nant-winners if they could keep it up. Bnt
they won't, and what is more, they are not
required to do so.
But the series nearly did not result with
a lauch lor local partisans. Those very
troublesome fellows from Cleveland came
within an ace of squaring things up with
us. For ten innings tbey fought lite little
demons from start to finish, and made the big
fellows hu-tlc for all they were worth. Finally
they were beaten on their -merits, after one of
the finest games seen here for a long time.
A Fine Contest.
T.he content was, indeed, a fine one and if
any of the 2,630 spectators were not satisfied
with it they are probably beyond satisfying at
alL The attendance was larger than It other
Rise would have been became Silver" King
was to make his appearance in a Pittsburg uni
form. Tbe light-haired jouth was there and
was cheereu. He pitched four innings and
three hits ere made off his delivery. He was
in verj good form but he retired because he did
not want to exert himself too much in his first
game. During the time be was in the box he
pleased the talent immenseb ana when he gets
thoroughly hardened he will certainly be a
king lur jrlttsuurjr aiut ne not uniy jmvueu
well but he batted In a run.
He was followed uj.Sulcy and Harry really
crowned himself witu glory. He pitched six
inning" and during that time the visitors only
made three hits. And Staley also batted in a
run when it was needed. Indeed it was needed
so much that it tied tbe score and Henry had
to wipe out a three-badger to accomplish the
tea Altogether it may be said that Staley
and Kicc were the two great men in yesterdays
game. The entire team playeu well except
Miller. The "Midget" is undoubtedly out of
form just now as he can neither field his posi
tion uor hit tbe balL Of course he Is in
a new position and has only played
it on the worst grounds in the League.
He mav do better on a better ground, but so
far be has not even gone after a ball in a way
that would indicate first-class playing. One
thing is certain; there muu be better playing
at short it the team is to stand well up Reilly
played a good game at bat and so did Carroll,
but Miller was such a failure at bat that he
knocked tbe chances of run-getting on tbe
head several times. Had he been in bis old
time fnrm with 'he stick tbe game would have
been somewhat onesided. The local hits were
considerably scattered and that explains why
only tour runs were made off 12 hits and three
runs made by the Clevelands oil six hits.
A Good Series.
Tbe visitors played a good game and Yiau'
tinder the circumstances, did exceedingly well.
He kept tbe sluggers from bitting tbe ball
when hits would have been extremely profita
ble to tbe home team.
The teries with Cleveland has been a good one.
The team is a very active and useful one and
are pluck v players. The have not cotton aulte
settled duwu jet. lbev have some good players
among thcui; lu fact, some of tbe best in tbe
country 1 bey are a civil lot of fellows to
tackle and it is always interesting to see them
plaa. Their visit here has been a profitable
one to 1'ittsbursr financially.
Bun-gettinc in yesterday's game commenced
in tbe second inning. MjuI, who was playing
instead of Hanlon the latter was moving into
a new bouse got bis base on balls and reached
second on Mack's sacrifice hit. Maul got to
tl.ird on a wild throw by Zimmer and scored on
a fine single by Mr. Kellly, who was captain of
the team. King struLk out after being loudly
cheered.
Maul also led off the fourth InniDgand sent
out a fly to Johnson. Mack knocked out a
good single to riirht, and .Mr. Reilly ajrain did
business bj sacrificing him to second. King
came next and cracked out a long single to
right, sending Mack home with an earned run.
In the second hair the viitors tied tbe score.
McKean touched King up lor a single to loft,
and reached socond on a socrifice by Davis.
Cbilds srot bis base on balls and Johnson sent
out a fly to liierbauer. Alvord loomed up and
Sf nt a hot liner out to Carroll. Tbe ball took a
had bound and nent past Carroll, allowing Mc
Keau ana Childs to score aud Alvord to reach
third. King struck Virtue out, retiring tbe
side.
Some Ilxcitlng Stages.
In the sixth tbe visitors took tbe lead. Staley
bit Dans with a pitched ball and a passed ball
sent him Jo second. Sacrifices by Childs and
Johnson scored him.
Ihe home placis tied tbe score in the eighth
amid great excitement. Maul led off and was
retired at first. Mack rapped out a single, and
Mr. Reilly again sacrificed him to second. Then
came btalea, and be thumped out a corking
triple past Johnson, scoring Mack. The tentb
inning came, and JIaul again led off, getting
Ins base on balls. Alack sacrificed bim to sec
ond, and Mr. Itcilli onco more came to the
front by janking out a two-bigger to left, senu
ing Maul Hume with the winmnc run. Score:

Dattox, April 3a The work of putting up
the grand stand and bleachers was begun to
day. Manager Fisher has six men signed, and
expects to have the remainder of the club here
by Tuesday of next week. The men signed so
far are all first class, and tbey must be so, as
thev are in fat company, this rlty having
joined tbe Northwestern League. It is safe to
say tbls place will see the best local club tbls
year that it has ever bad.
An Interesting Game.
An interesting ball game was played yester
day between the Western University of Penn
sylvania and the Shady Side Academy. The
latter won by 10 to 9. The bits were 11 to 9 in
favor of the W. TJ. of P. The features of the
game were: McCandless accepting 11 chances
at second, four of which were very difficult fly
catches, and the heavy batting of Morrison and
Brice. .
Al Is Married.
Louisville, April 30. Al Johnston, the
well-known baseball man, and Miss Kate
Mitchell were married here last night. Both
are of old Kentucky families. The wedding
took place at tbe Second fresbvterlan Church,
the Rev. C. R. Hemphill officiating. The bride
and bridegroom have left for Europe.
Baseball Notes.
Mack played a great came yesterday.
alvord gives promise or being a good third
baseman.
It was the "tall endcrs" or the team that won
yesterday's game.
Manager Leadley thinks that Tebeau will not
be able to play for two weeks.
Dunl.so the team's absence tbe grounds will be
Improved, and they peed it most certainly.
The bad condition of the diamond caused Bier
bauer to make his error In yesterday's game.
The boys go away at the .500 nark, and they
will do well. if they are no lower when they re
turn. Bardie Richardson' broke the small bones of
his right leg In the Boston-Athletic game Yester
day. ,
TBE League race is already quite interesting.
Several teams are liable to make a big jump In a
day or two.
King yesterday demonstrated that be Is a great
pitcher. He takes bis time in tbe box and poses
conslderaolv.
TheS. U. Bennetts want to play any of the
local Junior clubs. Address d Sweeney, Power
Hall, Diamond street.
MsXAOEBLiADMtY blames yesterday's defeat
of bis team on tbe bad decisions of Umpire Mc-
Quale. The latlcr's mistakes were about evenly
divided.
lCwTva will nrobably be able to catch next week.
In order to keep his arm warm his physician has
secured a pad tilled with pepper, Inwhich his arm
is now encased.
I'msiDCVT O'jSeil won a hat from Manager
Leadley during the scries Just closcd.'On Wednes
day morning Manager Leadley bet that the Cleve
ands would win two games. ;
A MEMBER or the Stock Exchange has made a
bet or f20 on New York's winning the champion
ship against the Held. Another tzoO bt has been
recorded that ther will beat out the Brooklyns in
i the race.
PLEASED "WITH SLAVOT.
Leadinc Kportlnc Men Commend
His
Conduct In This Country.
New York, April 3. -Sporting men about
town unite in commending "Paddy" Slav In for
his straightforward action In traveling to St.
Louis aloue and learning from John L.' own lips
the truth of the champion's retirement from the
ring, it was a move that will gain McAuliffe and
Smith's couquerer many lrlends In this connlrj.
and then is but little doubt that Billy Madden's
wise counsel actuated the journey.
Sullivan was greatly impressed by the frank
ness of the man. who. It Is almost conceded, will
wear the crown he so long held. "I like your
style and congratulate you," was John's manly
outburst, and Slavlu's rcplv was no less charac
teristic: '! stand on my own merits, anil am
afraid of no man In the world."
While thcrelsco reasonable doubt entertained
by good Judges of slartn's superiority to any of
the present aspiring champions, it by no means
follows that the Australian has earned the cham
pionship of the world, as his shonters would have
us believe. The men fact of having traveled to
St. Louis torccelvo corroboration of the cham
pion's retirement, do-s not cntlllo any pugilist to
usurp the disc irded title. A Her the stranger bad
vanquished Kllraln, Corbctt, Jackson, or any
other lighter who may dispute his right to pick up
Sullivan's mantle It will be In tbe otdcrol things
to declare hlin the world's champ'on. But until
such settlement, Kllraln. i'crbett, Jackson, etal,
hate as clear a title to tbe coveted honor as
Siavln.
The news or Kllraln and Siavln being matched
cameasa pleasant surprise, een thoughlt was
known that the overtures were under way. some
how the sportsfelt shy of Muldoon. But It Is all
settled, aud June IS, on Hobokcn's classic shores,
the gladiators will meet for the Granite Athletic
Club's JI0. 000 purse.
Siavln will return in time for to-morrow night's
reception at Madison square Garden, when New
Y'o'kers can get a "line" on his style. He Is to
box with Charley Mitchell and Jim Daly, of Phil
adelphia. The latter Is expected to put up a good
contest against the Australian. It will only be a
three-round go," and It Is more than likely that
uaiy win ne on nanu at me nnai can ox time.
Big Joe McAuIItfe couldn't put him out In six
rounds and tbe Phlladclphlan has been training
specially to stay with Siavln. Among the other
stars to don the mitts will be Jack McAuliffe,
Johnny lieagan, Itoddy McBrlde. Charley Nor
ton, cai aicuartny, raauy uorman. juiae earr,
Billy Dacey and Prof. Nixon. Matsada Soraihlkl,
tbe "Jap. " will wrestle Ernest Koeber a match
"for keeps." The large amphitheater will prob
ably be laxed to us limits If prohibitive lines do
not prevail.
WANTS A BIG PUESE.
Siavln Says He Will fight Where There Is
the Most Money.
New Yore, April SO. Frank P. Slavin. the
Australian pugilist, and bis wealthy friend ar
rived in the city from St Louis yesterday
atternooa Tbe Australian had little to say
concerning his visit to the Mound City, where,
he went to see John L. Sullivan regarding the
probability ot arranging a match.
A reporter asked him bow he aras received by
Sullivan, and this is what he said:
"I am pleased to say that I found Sullivan a
first-rate fellow. I explained to him the nature
of my visit and, of course, you know bis an
swer. After this we had a drink or two to
gether; and then parted tbe best of friends."
While Slavin is willing to abide by any agree
ment made by Billy Madden, his manager,
there is a chance that tbe preliminary articles
signed lor a match Detween himself and the
winner of-tbe Jackson-Corbett contest may not
bold good. Major Frank McLaughlin, one of
the directors of the California Club, who drew
up the articles, wired President Fulda of what
bad been done. Tbe Major left for San Fran
cisco yesterday, and before leaving his hotel
received an answer from Mr. Fulda stating
that the directors of the club would take action
on the matter within a week. This leaves
Slavin free to sign with another club if he cares
to. A representative of tbe Granito Associa
tion of New Jersey said last night that his
club had decided to offer a purse of 13.000 for
Slavin and the successful heavy-welgbt in next
month's contest. Tbls offer was communicated
to Slavin, who said he would fight befora the
club ofierlug the biggest money.
All the arrangements for tbe exhibition to
night at Madison Square Garden have been
completed. Jim Daly, the Philadelphia boxer,
who is to spar tour rounds with the brawny
Australian, will arrive here at noon to-day.
He has been training for three weeks, and is
reported to be in the pink nf condition. This
bont will be the event of the evening, and
Manager Madden said last night that it would
begin at exactly 9 o'clock. Jack McAuliffe
and Denny Uostlgan will be introduced an hour
earlier.

SURELT THE RIPPER.
Startling Evidence Pointing to the
Guilt of Frenchy Ho. 1.
SECRET OF 1NSPEC10R BYRNES.
His Story of the Awful Arraijnment of
tbe Murderer.
A DADGUTEE, CLAIMS THE DEAD EODI
SPKCIAL TELEGRAM TO TUB DISPATCH.!
New York, April 30. The inquest in
the case of Carrie Brown, the old woman
who was murdered and mutilated in the
East Psiver Hotel on Thursday night of last
week, was to have begun this evening, and
Dr. Cyrus Edson, of the Health Depart
ment, was among the witnesses subptenaed
by Coroner Scbultze. His was a new name
in the case, and the reporters tackled him to
find out what he knew about it Dr. Edson
let out the secret that Inspector Byrnes had
been hiding for nearly a week, that the evi
dence at hand -pointed to the guilt of
Frenchy No. 1, who has been under arrest
since Friday last.
This Frenchy occupied on the night ot the
murder room 33 in the East Eiyer Hotel,
diagonally across the ha'.l from room 31,
where the murder was committed. Dr. Edson
said that the police had found a trail of
blood across the hall from room 31 to room
33, and tbe blood stains in room 33 on the
bed and on a chair: that tbey also discovered
ween brencby JSo. 1 was arrested that he
wore a shirt stained with blood; that human
blood bad been found under his fingernails.
Edson's Eulogy of Byrnes.
It was to the latter fact, the Docti id,
that be was to testily. "This is tbe outline
of the story," said the Doctor: "Inspector
Byrnes is to my mind -the greatest detective
who ever lived. He has worked unceasingly
night and day on a theory since the murder was
found out, and the way in which he has ferreted
ic out ana roiiowea every straw is simply mar
velous. Cut of the muadle of utter confusion,
without a bottom of any single apparent fact to
it, ho has shaped in my sight an awful arraign
ment of tho murderer, which he can never
escape."
Tbe reporter went to Inspector Byrnes. He
would neither confirm nor deny the story of
Dr. Edson, but he retnrneJ tbe doctor's com
pliments on his ability saying: "Dr. Edson Is a
man wbo usually tells tbe truth." At tbls
time it had not been decided to adjourn the in
quest. There was a crowd at tbe Coroner's
office at 2:30 p. SL Tbe jury was sworn. Then,
on behalf ot the District Attorney.tMr. Lind
say moved for an adjournment to Mav 11, and
got It. So the reporters went back to Inspector
Byrnes, and to them he told a dramatic story.
Story of the Murder.
He began with the arrest of Frank Sherlick,
or Frenchy No. L Frency No. 1 was at the
East River Hotel alone at 10 o'clock the night
of the murder, and he was there drinking at 11
o'clock when tbe old woman Shakespeare and
her companion came in and got tbeir drinks
and went upstairs to room 3L "This man
Frenchy was, as 1 have stated before," con
tinued tbe Inspector, "a man of wicked and un
natural habits. Frenchy bad such a tough
reputation among women that none of them,
except old bhakespeare, would bave anything
to do with him.
"It is against tbe rules of the hotel for a man
not accompanied by a woman to go to the top
floor of the hotel. Tho night of tbe murder
Eddy Fitzgerald, tbe little bartender, was on
duty at tbe hotel iu charge of the door. He
did not know its rule. After Shakespeare and
her companion of that night had gone upstairs
Frenchy said to Eddy that he guessed be would
go to bed, and asked for a room on the top
floor. When Frenchy was arrested and brought
to the station house, he had on no undercloth
ing. He wore a ooarse shirt, a pair of trousers
and a pair of socks.
Many Tell-Tale Blood Marks.
"He was examined, and tho lower part of his
shirt was found to be covered with blood in
f ronr. It was just about where the blood would
strike had he stood over the woman by the side
of tbe bed. There was a blood mark on the
back of tbe neck of tbe shirt, just such a mark
as would be made by tbe woman if she had
thrown ud her hand and seized bim while she
was struggling in a death grasp. There aras a
splash of blood on the wristband of tbe shirt,
and it was plain that an attempt had been
made to ward it off. There were blood stains
on one of bis socks.
"On tbe outside jamb of the door of room
33, tbe room that Frenchy bad been assigned to,
there were blood mark that looked as though
the door bad been pushed open with just tbe
tips of bloody fingers. On tbe inside of the
door were blood marks that looked as though
tbe door had been pushed shut witb tbe inside
upper half of a band of bloody fingers. There
were also blood marks on tho door of room 31,
where the murder was committed.
What a Blanket Kevoaled.
"There were spots of blood in the hall, very
small and hardly discernible. There were
spots of blood on the floor of room S3. There
was a stain of blood on the chair in room S3, as
though a murderer had sat down In It. There
were clots of blood on the blanket on the bed.
It was an old army blanket. The clou were
of human blood. The other stains on the
blanket looked as tbougb bloody bands had
been wiped in it. Tberowas blood on tbe bed
tick. There were no sheets on tbe bed.
"Now as to tbe man who went to tbe room
with Shakespeare," the Inspector continued.
"We arrested Frencby No. 2,about whom there
has been so much talk, Sunday morning at 5
o'clock. We found that hehau spent tbe night
of the murder four and a balf miles away from
the scene of tbe murder. We simply let
Frencby No. 2 zo. The man who went to tbe
room with Shakespeare followed the cuatcm of
the other mon who take women to the hotel
and went out in a short tim.
Afraid to Come Forward.
"If he is an honest man he will naturally not
come forward and acknowledge the fact that
be went to the hotel with the woman. As to
tbo prisoner's stories. He has lied to us in
every Instance when he has made a statement.
"Now come to tbe knife with which tho mur
der was committed. We cannot trace the
knife lo Frenchy or any one else. It is a very
common sort of knife and such as might be
used in banana shops. That is why the inquest
was adjourned to-day. to give us time."
Frenchy, who District Attoruev Nicoll after,
ward said, gave the name nf George Frank,
was arraigned this afternoon before Judge
Martine. Tbe hearing was postponed until tho
conclusion of the Inquest. The tody of the
murdered woman was claimed to-day by Miss
Emma Alton, her daughter, and by her order it
was sent to her home, where it will receiver
decent burial.

mits Its Beport.
Albany, April 80. The Senate Committee
on General Laws submitted to tbe Senate this
morning a report of 5,000 words on tbe Sugar
Trust Investigation. After reviewing the testi
mony taken, tbe report says: "It appears un
contradicted that tbe trust declared 10 per
cent annual dividends at all times during its
existence, not only upon tho original capital of
all tho constituent corporations, amounting to
less than S7.COO.000. but also upon the fabulous
valuation placed uton the stock of such' con
stituent corporations, amounting to about 150,
000 000."
Continuing, the report says: "It was plainly
one of the chief purposes of the trust to pro
vide for the issue of these certificates, afford
ing thereby an opportunity for great specula
tion in them, obviously to tbe advantage of
tbe persons managing the trnst, with whom
was lodged full information of its plans, to tbe
disadvantage ot tbe general public, who wero
ignorant of the secrets of the trnst. its methods
and plans and of the actual valne of tbe certifi
cates in which they dealt. It may well be
questioned whether the trust has not organized
more for the purpose otenormoos speculators
than for tbe advantages to be obtained bv the
combination of refineries in legitimate refining
of sngar. Tbe committee recommends, among
other things, that trusts either bo restrained or
placed under the control of a State bureau."

PLAINFIELD, N. J., April SO. A week ago
to-day the mother of Frank Gray, a milkman
living at Samptown. died. The young man
was almost prostrated with grief, but seemed
In his usual health. Sunday afternoon the
mother was buried. Early that evening Gray
complained of being drowsy and went to bed.
The next morning he failed to respond to tbe
rising bell. After awhile a sister went to bis
room to discover the cause. She found her
brother breathing heavily, and when she at
tempted to arouse him, failed entirely. He
slept all that day and did not awake until
night, when he opened bis eyes in a stupid way
for a minute or two and immediately doz'd off
again. The next morning a doctor tried to
awake him with an electric battery, but in
vain. Tuesday night be awakened for about
two minutes and then went to sleep again.
Since then he has slept steadily, awakening
only at Intervals of 32 hours, but dozing off
again after two or three minutes. Tbe doctors
are unable to account for tbe strange condi
tion. The yonng man has always been well
and particularly strong. He is 23 vears old.
He swallows fooa that is placed in his mouth,
though he gives no signs of consciousness. Al
together he has slept thus far HO hours.

FOUR GAT GRANGERS.
They Are tbe Heirs of the Late Presi

THEY PAINTED BUFFALO RED.
Celebrating the Secnrinj: of a Comfortably
Sized Fortune
WHEN THE STiTE IS" MYIDED TO-DAI
ISPXCIAL TXLXCRAX TO THI DISPATCH. I
Buffalo, April 30. Those who passed
in or out ot the barroom at tbe Tint House
this afternoon couldn't bave helped noticing
a little party of four men. They would
have attracted attention in any place in this
city, for they were typical farmers, and of
the most pronounced "Hoosier" stamp.
There were four in the party, and
they were all bappy drunk, yelling I
and shaking dice for drinks. They
were haying a big time, bnt their mission
here is one calculated to make anyone
jubilant. It was a sort of family reunion
of the heirs of President Millard Fillmore,
but this meeting means more than family
reunions usually do, as it will be the means
of bringing to each one of tbe heirs a nice
little fortune.
The Fillmore estate is worth about 8300,-
000, and it is to be divided among 11 per
sons, five of whom live in Michigan, three
in Indiana, two in Washington, and one in
California. Those who are here are George
M. Benjamin, F. Almon L. and Millard C,
all nephews of the dead President Tbe
other heirs, with the exception of one, are
expected here before to-morrow, for at tbat
time the final settlement of the estate will
take place in tbe Surrogate's Court.
Blowing In Their Wealth.
They bad everything tbeir own way at tbe
Tifft and spent lots of monev, which they
have borrowed on tbe strength of their pros
pective fortune, and to-night tney were in an
uptown saloon shaking dice, telling stories
about their great uncle and buying drinks for
tho crowd. "I'll bave another cocktail; so will
1, andso'lllandso'lll,"
Time and again tbia order went round to
night till tbo nephews were light beaded and
maklnz fun for the spectators. Tbey areas
perfect specimens of Hoosier farmers as could
easily be produced. They all wore "blled"
shirts, but no collars or cuffs. Their shirts
were of tbat kind tbat have pleats and buttons
up in front with a neckband wide enough to
make a collar if necessary.
Aimon is a smootn-laced. solid old chap, 68
years old, and Is said to resemble the President
more closelv than any otber of tbe living de
scendants. Millard C. is a sturdy man ot SS,
and wears a gray mustache. Benjamin F. Is
toe oiuesi oi tne riumore neirs. ile is bo years
of age, and with bis tuft of gray chin whiskers
and sharp features makes a good Uncle Sam.
They arrived to-day, and Immediately pro
ceeded to paint the town. Almon was the
spokesman of the party, and seems to take a
greater pride in the memory of his famous old
uncle than any otber of tbe family.
A Famous Old Watch.
"This was uncle's watch," he said, as he
drew from his trousers pocket an old-fashioned,
open-faced gold watch. It was an English
lever, and 75 years ago was probably one of the
most valuable watches In America. On the
back of tbe case is this inscription In "a circle:
"Millard Fillmore, 1S34."
"It Is a good timer yet," said the old farmer,
"and many a time I bave been offered $1,000
for it." A large gold seal that also belonged to
the President is attached to the fob. Being
filled with wine to-niirbt. farmer like, the old
boys got to bragging about their strength not
exactly aoout tnetrown strength, Dut about tbe
physical superiority of their boys. Almon be
gan It with: "Say, I've got a boy
that can turn any Fillmore on his back
that's living." "I say be " can't,"
broke in Millard. "I'll just bet that he can."
"I'll just bet you that be can't; takes a pretty
soggy man to turn me on my back." But Al
mon insisted that his boy was tbe strongest lu
"old Ingeanny." and so they had anotber glass
and let the matter drop.
The estate will be settled up to-morrow, and
then the heirs will go to Niagara Falls for a
short time.

tendency to mildew and can't be held over long. Otherwise
they are as good as ever and warranted. Can exchange.

sell at retail, and you can get these bargains ONLY AT
LAIRD'S SHOE STORES.
