Cincinnati 1 Louisville o Baltimore 9 "Washington 7 Our sluRgcrs made another step away from last place yesterday after one of the noisiest nntl most exciting games ever Been on tire homo grounds. llanlon's great catch will long be remem bered. The exciting feat ures were all right and Just what intake the fun of a ball gam e, but the noise at times was simply disgrace ful, b-tca-isj it was chiefly mla up of abuse. The Cincinnati play- J ere, at least some of them, once more gave a display of row dylsm, and it was in some respect" even worse than that of Saturday. It seems as if Latham was fast degenerating from a harmless prattler of laughable re marks to a downright abusive kicker. The manner in which that player has used abus ive and insulting remarks to Umpire Eat tin during this ser.es is a disgrace to the na tional game. And Holliday was prominent in this line yesterday, but while there may be some excuse for the wild breaks of Holli day because of his mental Ret-up, there can scarcely be any excuse at all for a man like Latham, who is captain of the team and w ho poses as a very wise man. Some of Laiham's Talk. Here is a specimen of his talk to the um pire yesterday. When the latter had lined Latham $10 for abusive remarks, Latham re plied: "Fine away. I'll fine you when we get you to Cincinnati" If that kind of talk and threat has to bo tolerated on a League ball field, the public should be made aware of it by President Toung. Battin is a new umpire and he has done exceedingly well in this city. He may have made mistakes, but he certainly has not been worse In this respect or even as had as the aver age umpire. But even if his decisions were faulty at times, no player has a license to walk up and abu.e htm. Holltdav walked np to him and shook nis nst in nis lace, tinuiaav also mrew ms cap on the ground and Jumped on it. Of course, an Im pulsive player like Holliday couldn't well be ex ported to do anything ele when his captain was setting such a remarkable example. As a result Latham was fined about M0 by installments and Hollldav was touched up for J25. But Umpire Bat tin should have retired both men from the game. Certalnlv the content Mas an cxceedlngh close one. and the wind-up of It was bo close that the J. nu people present pronaniv were never so ex ?ople ithe cited In their lies. it tasthe extreme closeness of the argument that doubtless caused the feelings of tbe pla vers to run so high. And It was at the ierycloet tage of the game that Umpire Battin called Hollldav out at the home plate, and then the la'termadea disgraceful exhibition of hlmaelf. No other umpire would have allowed HolUday to have remained another minute In the game. Had Some Ginger in Them, The home players put a little more ginger Into their work yesterday than they have for some time pnst. They plaj ed as if they wanted to i In the gnme and this Is, a feature that the public alwaj s want to ,ee. King was much more effective than usual, huthegac too many bases on balls. Still h 6howed great speed and It may be that he is about to regain hlb old time effectiveness. But the te.nm general!? were not In hitting humor and it is hard to av what the result would have been had J jiuiiane noi given so many nates on balls. Of ctiure If the lull had been across the plate they might have been knocked safelvawav. 1 he econd liming was the stage wlij re the scoring lvan. After IHerhauer had been retired Mullane gae the next three men their bae on balls. iuls was delightful to the crowd, Berger then came to the hat and made a sacrifice hit, scoring Mack. Hanlon stole third and Maul remained at first. Idle King was at bat Maulstarted to steal second. After Jlaul hid dodged between the bases awhile he Aas nahbed without Hanlon scoring. Hanlon 1 e.er had a sale chance to score as the fielders were keeping a clo-i e 011 him. In their half the visitors tied the score. After Ktlllj badstnnk Iveenan got his base on balls and. Mnlth's single sent hlin to second. Harrington struck out and then Berger made a wild throw of Mullane' grounder, allowing Keenan to ecore. Smith also tried to tally, but was nabbed at the plate. In the third Inning after King was retired at first Miller got his bac 011 balls and Bccklev sent hlra to third .111 a single to center field. Berkley stole second on a w lid throw bv narrlngton and Miller scored. Browning's single tcored fleckley. They Tied the Score Again. No more runs w ere made until the eighth Inning, when the visitors again tied the score. Harrington got his base on balls and Mullane sacrificed him to second. Latham went up next and purposely fouled about a dozen balls. Three balls were called on King, but by some remarkable pitching he struck Latham out amid the cheers of the crowd. McPhec then knocked out a safe hit to lefC scoring Harrington. Then came Holliday and he banged out a single to Maul, hut the latter allowed the ball to get past him and McPhee scored. HolUday tried also to tally, but he was declared out at the plate. He never touched the plate as he slid In and Slack touched hlm out. The umpire's decision on this point caused Hollldav to make the scene referred io. In frfct almost all the Cincinnati players sur rounded the umpire.. This closed the Inning. In the ninth Maik got his base fin balls and Han lon made a bunt. Keenan muffed the throw and Maul was safe at second and Hanlon safe on first Maul got his base on balls, tilling the bases. Berger made a neat sacrifice, scoring Mack. King knocked np a little fly w hlch Mullane caught, and Miller went out at Act. . Then came the visitors for the great wlnd-np Marr led oft with a single and was sacrified to sec ond by Rellly. Keenan knocked out a fly to Han lon, who threw the ball to Blerbauer and the latter threw It in turn to Miller, w ho could have touched ?fr?.u yho " ''"""K tUlrd on the throw. But Miller dropped the ball Two men out and a man on third and one run needed to tii tk cnM Smith came up and-got Ills base on balls and stole tecond, aided by a passed ball. Then came Har rington. He dodged on quite a while with Klne anaflnallj smacked the ball square on the nose for a terrific liner to middle field. The hot contest looked all oi er. Everybody gave It uo. as the two runs were coming rushing in. Nobodv thought ir possible for Hanlon to catch the ball, lint pos he ran as If mnnlncr for his life. Th 111 w-- just njing past mm ana ue was nair running with it. Vtltli one desperate effort he leaped at It. and j 1 . ",., j ii ranamanje catch and it saved the day. He was cheered again and ngalu.

Scott Stratton does not want to leave Pittsburg, and 3 esterday he stated to President O'Neil that he would remain here without pay until July 4, and see lfhe could get his arm Into condition. If he can regain his strength in his arm, of course lie will remain with the team. AU the fines Imposed on the local players some time ago have been demanded by the club. Bald win waa fined $i0. He was fined 525 lor leaving the turnstile at Boston before the business was done, and (25 for missing the train In coming home. Miller's $25 was for his offense atBrookhn, and Browning was fined f25 for taking the plates off his shots, which caused him to tall down In the field and make errors. Fines are not creditable to players, as there Is always (Muse for a flue, and It Is about time that some of the pla era in the local team were begin ning to act like men and not like children. The public has been complaining all along about Man ager Hanlon being too lenient, and there Is now an Indication that discipline will be enlorced. No body connected with the club likes to enforce fines, but if pla ers who receive enormous salaries wont do right they cannot expect to escape the conse quences. The players ought from now on make up their minds. like honest men. to try and be of profitable service to their employers and the public who are giving them the klnglv salaries they are receiving. If they don't do this thev will be the sufferers in the long run, most assuredly, o JUr. ritjgerald's Statement. Mr. J. Fitzgerald, manager of the Jcannette ball club, writes to this paper as follows regarding the game on Saturday between his team and the Inde pendents: There seem to be some erroneous statements afloat in regard to Saturday's game. In Sunday's paper It w as stated that we had played for $100. Now this Is a CTOSS falsehood and rinpa nnprlnh great Injustice. Wc. never have played for one cent, neither do we propose to. We play for pas time, and nothing else. Wc have a club here that We can be proud of, and If we could have 'had a square deal by that Pittsburgh umpire we would have won easily Saturday. We are perfectly will ing to lake a defeat If it Is honest, but we do not propose to let a game go by default on account of the rank decision of a rank umpire." THE RACING RECORD.

THEY FLEE IN THE DARKNESS Beaten With Sticks. Clnts and Knives, and One Man Staboed. AN OFFICIAL LVTESTIGATION ASKED St. Louis, Juno 22. A race riot between laborers employed by Contractor Workley at Hctnans Camp, at the Chain of Bocks, a point about five miles up the river where the new wat? r works aro being constructed, occurred between 1 and 2 o'clock Sunday morning, in which one Italian was danger ously stabbed, 22 of his fellow countrymen driven from the camp, their valuables and money confiscated by the gang of American and other laborers making the attack, and a race panic inaugurated. The riot was primarily causedsby'the ad mittance in camp ofa lot of Italian laborers and.tho report that Contractor Workley had gone to Chicago fpr more. All Saturday a feeling.of revolt against the employment of Italian laboiers had been gaining in strength and bitterness. As soon as the laborers were paid off in the evening they congre gated as usual at a saloon just outside the oif y limits, whero bad whisky is dealt out to the men, who pass the time in gambling away tiieir nara-carneu money. The Party Broke Up Crazy Drunk. About 1 o'clock Sunday morning the gam bling party broke up and the 60 or more men, crazy drunk, started for their sleeping quarters. On the way over a man named William B. Blair, it is alleged, sprang the idea of driving them but. It took like wild fire, and with muttered curses against the Italians the drunken men hurried toward the camp. With a cry the attack began on the sleep ing Italians. Tho drunken crowd sprang into tho -tent amid the foreigners, armed with sticks, clubs, knives and whatever else they could lay their hands upon. The fight did not last long. The Italians were at too great a disadvantage, and after a briefre sistance they fled in terror, leaving behind all their belongings. They carried away one of their comrades named Cataline Fran cisco, dangerously wounded, by a cut in the breast which threatens to result fatally. The Italians Flee to St Lords. Tho Italians made their way to this city where they reported the matter to the po lite, and Francisco was taken to the city dispcnsaiy, where his wounds wore dressed. At the camp their departure was followed by a scene of pillage. Their valises, bundles and packages were broken open and the contents taken. The police at once began a rigid investiga tion, and the following arrests were made: Edward Manlcy, John H. Jones, Michael CassoI.W. R. Blair, W.C Brooks, F. Leader and John Shiller. These men profess ignorance of the attack on the Italians, and say they were awakened by a commotion and moroly aided in driving from camp the disturbers of their slumbers. One of the assaulted party, however, identified two of the men arrested. Italian Consul Domlnico Ginno- chio is indignant over the attack on his countrymen, and will doubtless enter into a preliminary correspondence with his Gov ernment on the subject. He has demanded of the Chief of Police protection for the Italians and also an immediate official in vestigation of the riot. Annual Police Inspection. The annual inspection of police took place in Old City Hall yesterday morning. There were 120 men from the First district, 80 from the Seoond and 30 from the Third. They were put through tho drill by Captain J. A. A. Brown, and went through it without a break. THE FLEE BEC0RD. The steel railway company's pavilion at Lake Harvest was burned this morning.

Several Accidents Attending the Last Ship ment of Coal to the South. Once more yesterday the Pittsburg wharf was clear of towboats. As stated In Tiie Dispatcii of Sundayabont5l000,000 bushels of coal hare been shipped on this rise to lower "ports, and this ac counts for the absence of boats and the Inactivity In the harbor. A number of boats managed to get away yesterday, and, outside the coal owned by W. H. Brown's Sons, there Is little left In the lower pools, but the operators say conrlderable is loaded np the Monongahela and ready to be brought down. Up to noon yesterday 8 towboats, with 39 barges, 9 flats and7coalboats,wlth a total of 710,000 bushels, passed Davis Island dam. In addition, the Percy Kelsy, for Brown, tho 1. N. Bunion, for Walton, .and the Clifton got away In the afternoon. The Time assisted the Kelsy up the river from Bellalre and the boat got here In the morning. W. H. Brown's Sons sent out 1,000,000 bushels on this rise. Mr. Arnold stated they still have considerable coal to ship, but they did not hire outside boats, as some of the other operators. Most of the Brown boats, with the first high water, went to New Or leans, where coal Is bringing a good price, and they haven' t been able to come back. On the Allesfhenv side a loaded flat, with a work man on board, broke loose at Smith's coal vard and started down the river at a lively rate. The man &llt&i&2$& ana, alter an exciting cnase, was caught by the tugboat John Dlpple In the Ohio river. The cur rent In the Allegheny is very swift, and It is ex ceedingly dangerous to handle coal oitthat stream. On Sunday afternoon the Bob Connell ran Into a raft, smasnlng the guards on the bow and doing other damage to the boit. - SOLDIERS ORPHANS' INQUIRY.
