In the latter part of to-day's p.iine Mark Baldwin gave an ex hibition of how not to pitch simply because one of his team made a$ error. Up to the sixth inning lie had been doing magnificent work in the box, fre quently retiring the Cleve lands when men were on bases and the prospects of a succession of runs seemed imminent. Cleve land bad made but one hit, and from the way in which Baldwin fooled them the spectators began to be lieve that the team never would make any more. In the sixth Berger made two wild throws, one after the other, and Baldwin at once proceeded to lose his temper or his good Judgment and the home team, with bases on balls and a couple or timely nits, Degan to make some runs. Everybody at the game Felt Sorry for Berger. Ile was trying to do the best that he could, but he is not an infleldcr and never will make one until his confidence is restored. He fairly shook when the ball came toward him, and in spite of the fact that he is a splendid thrower he couldn't put the ball to lirst baso accurately to save all bis season's salary. After the fifth inning 'JIanagcr Leadlcv concluded that Beatin never could Hln the game if he permitted him to stay in the box, because he had no speed whatever nnd a trusting solely to his slow ball. It i true that he was not responsible for the inns that rittsburg got, as Davis made a l!uke on a long hit because of the bun, but it looked every minute as though Pittsburg would get at the ball and pound it in all dl jections. Neither side could find a run in the first though each got a man as far as the initial bag on a base on balls. In the second In ning Carroll cracked a hot grounder that lenny beat down with his left hand, but could not throw to first in time to catch the big fielder. Carroll stole second and Han Ion's sacrifice sent him tb third. Fields rapied out a long fly that was lost in the sun and made two bases out of it, Carroll crossing tho plate. Denny fumbled Berger's hot hit and a flv was dropped In right center. Fields scoring and Berger crossing the plate on Doyle's w lid throw to third; three runs were in for the Burgers. In the next inning Browning started with a clean single and, Itierbauer made a sacrifice. Carroll hit to left field for two bases and Browning scored. Browning Was Stubborn. rittsburg had a splendid opportunity to score In the fifth, but Browning, with his usually perversity, refused to sacrifice, and a double play resulted. After that Viau pitched a winning game. In the sixth inning for Cleveland Doyle began with a base on balls, and Virtue hit to Bierbauer. In trying to make a double play Berger threw wildly and Virtue went to second. Zimnier knocked a grounder to Berger and ho threw ild again, Virtue scoring and Zimmer iomg to second. Then Hanlon took Merger's place. Denny made a clean hit and Zimmer scored, Viau got a bae on balls and Denny scored on Davis' single after McKcun struck out. Johnson began the next inning with a single and two batters went out after him. Zim mer knocked a tremendous fly to left field, and Carroll made a hard run for the ball but dropped it. Johnson scoring and Zimmer going to third. Denny's single sent Zimmer home. Viau followed with a single and Denny came homo on McKcan's single. Davis wa given a base on balls and so was Childs, forcing Viau in with a run. Two were out in the eighth when Zimmer hit safely, Denny and iau each got a base on balls and Zimmer and Denny scored on Mc Kean's double. Score: ! CLE ELAND. B B F A F1TTSDCBQ. B D T A E JleKean, ..

Cornell Wins the Big Boat Bace on the Thames, Defeating the Pennsylvania and Columbia Crews After a Bard Full The Winners Make a New Kecord. New Lokdos, Cons., June 25. One of tho most exciting races over rowed on the Thames river took place this afternoon over the three-mile course between the Cornell, University of Pennsylvania and Columbia UnlVersity eight-oared crews. Cornell won after a hard contest in tho fast time of H minutes 27 seconds; University of Pennsyl vania second by .four lengths, time, Kmln utes 45 seconds. Columbia was a bad third, being Ave lengths behind the Pennsylvania crew and eight lengths behind Cornell. Cornell's time establishes a new record, the previous best time being 14 minutes 43 sec onds over the same course by the same crew last year. The surprise of the day was the unexpected poor showing made by the Columbia crew. The feature was the re markably close race between Cornell and Pennsylvania, each of the two crows holding the lead at times before the 'first 'milo had been rowed, and for two miles it was impossible to name the winner. The conditions for the fast time 'were excellent. The water was smooth, a strong current running and a favorable wind-also assisting. At 3 30 the crews came in sight, Cornell and Pennsylvania on their tugs, while Columbia paddled down In their shell. With very littid delay the crews backed up to their stakeboa ts and were at once given word. The Pcnnsylvanlas got tho best of the start and their boat Jumped a-few feet to the front, with Cornell second, while Columbia, besides making a poor start, seemet.- to lose at every stroue. in the first ten strokes Cornell's boat shot up even withPennsylvania,audforan eighth 61a mile they wore so close that a lead could not be fairly credited to cither crew. Nearing the half-mile flag the Pennsylvania boat forged nearly half a length ahead of Cornell, with Columbia two lengths behindand hopelessly out of the race. Coming up to the navy yard, three-quarters of amlle from the start, Pennsylvania in creased their lead to nearly a length. Cor nell here made a grand spurt and their boat gradually crept up alongside of the Pennsyl vania crew and as the boats neared the mile flag Cornell sent their boat up on even terms with Pennsylvania. For a few seconds the Pennsylvania boys held their position, the boats being bow and bow, while, Columbia had lost another length. All of the crews were pulling In splendid form, the two lead ing sending'their shells through the water at a fast rate of speed, while tho Columbia boat settled and seemed to hang after each stroke. From the one-mile to tho two-mile flag the race between Cornell and Pennsyl vania was most exciting. It was the decisive point of the race. The Cornells worked like beavers to obtain an advantage, which they did inch by Inch, whilo Pennsylvania worked equally as hard to save themselves from defeat. At the two-mile flag Cornell Just showed clear of Pennsylvania's bow with Columbia Ave lengths be'hindUPcnnsyl vanla. Pennsylvania made another effort to regain the lead and succeeded in lapping Cornell's bow, but the effort was too much for them and the Cornell men responding to a final call hit their stroke up to 41 and ran away from Pennsylvania, finishing a strong winner, with Columbia at the rear of tho procession. The men in Cornell's and Penn sylvania's boats finished in good condition. In Columbia's boat No. 6 and the stroke ap peared to be exhausted. The time for the first half mile was 2:20, and for the first mils 1:43. Cornell has now won 13 straight races. McKeesport Sports.

CAVALRY TKdOPS IN 'THE FIELD. The Moqnis Are a" Strange Band, TJnnsed To Contact With Whites. INDIANS DON'T WANT OUR EDUCATION Washisotos", June 25. Commissioner Mor gan, of the Indian Bureau, has received a telegram fromSuperintendent Collins, of tho Moqui Pueblo Indian School at Keanrs Canon, in Arizona, in which he states that the In dians threatened to kill the whites and forcibly take their children from the school, and asks that military reinforcements be sent to tho school. The Commissioner re ferred the telegram to the War Department, with a recommendation that reinforcements be forwarded and the ringleaders in the present trouble be arrested and held pend ing tho settlement of the difficult?. It is said that there are 101 pupils In the school, which Is under tho supervision of one -of the most efficient teachers in the service. Commissioner Morgan and General McCook visited the Moquis last fall and di rected the Superintendent to gather into the schools all tho Indian children ho could find of school age. The present dlfflonltles. It Is said, have grown out of the fact that the Indians are ODnoscd to sendina- their chil dren to school. A Tribe of Savage Hermits. Mr. Morgan, in speaking further of th'o Moqul Indians, said they occupy three high nnd rocky ridges running parallel with eaph other and at right angles with tho Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, about 75 miles north of Hot Brook station and west of Kean's Canon. They are always in great fear of the Navajos, who, it is said, often despoil them of their small crops nnd In other ways make life a bnrden to them. From fear of the NavoJ os they bnilt their small adobe and dirt cabins among the bar ren rocks, and there they have lived prob ably for ages. The squaws carry their wood and water from the valleys far below their villages, and their small crops are, in many cases, grown far from their cabins. They rarely see a white man and know absolutely nothing of tho outside world, never having left their own rocky hills. They are strongly prejudiced against schools nnd the white man's ways, and no doubt will stoutly resist any further attempt to bring their children within enlightening influences. Three Troops of Cavalry Out. A dispatch from Las Vegas, N. M., says: Further advices received from Ft. Wingate, 300 miles west, to-day, are to the effect, that the trouble on the Navajo reservation seems to be increasing. Lieutenant L. M. Brett, who was sent with a detachment of troops to Kean's Canon, near Fort Defiance, to sup press the depredation of hostlles, dispatched a courier to the com mander of "D" troop, on the Zunl reservation for him to come to his aid as speedily as possible. A courier has also ar rived at Ft. Wingate with a special request for another troop of cavalrv, or all the cavalry available, as the hostlles are threat ening war. II Troop, Second Cavalry, under command of Captain Robinson, has left for Ft. Wineate and will make the march. This makes three troops of cavalry now in the field, and the infantry companies are now holding them selves in, readiness to bo called out. The troubleamong tho Indians may mean another Narajowar. WAS OF SO SIGNIFICANCE. Mayor Gourley Denies the Stories About the Visit of Messrs. FUnn and Howard. Senator Flinn and Attorney W. J. Howard were in the Mayor's office yesterday morn ing, about an hour, which resulted in numer erous startling rumors getting afloat. Mayor Gourley denies that there was any significance in the visit. "My business with Senator Flinn," said he, "was entirely of a private nature. Mr. Howard called to talk over matters with which tho public has no concern and when the two met in my office they sat talking together some time, while I was attending to other matters. There is no foundation for any of tho stories going about." t Among other rumors afloat concerning the meeting in the Mayor's office was one com ing from a well-known Democratic politi cian, who stated very soberly that tho Mayor's aspirations for Congress had led Senator Flinn to go on a mission of reconcil iation; that the whole trouble had been amicably settled, and Attorney Howard was to put up tho money for Mayor Gourley's campaign as a candidate for Congress. He drew his conclusions largely from the con viction that Senator Flinn would never spend an hour in a City Hall office for any but political purposes. A PIG IE0N FAILURE. George W.

A Mother and the Child Sitting on Her Lap. Instantly Killed by the Fluid. SPECIAL telegram to the DISPATCH. Norfolk, June25. Duringaheavy thunder storm that passedover Princess Anne county last night, the home of Howard Joynes, a well-known farmer of that district, was visited by a fearful calamity from the strange tactics of a lightning ball. Mr. and Mrs. Joynes were seated in the kitchen of the dwelling near a stove. The flash "was seen in the form of a ball of fire, that played at the root of a large oak tree, tearing it from the ground. The death-dealing mass then struck the stove in the kitchen, shattering it to atoms. The electric ball struck Mrs. Joynes in the breast, killing her instantly, the body turn ing black in color immediately after tho stroke. A small babe sitting upon its moth er's lap was also Instantly killed, yet no marks were found upon its body. The house caught fire and was nearly burned to the ground. The afflicted husband is thought to be demented by grief. Friday Is Poor Man's Day at the P. C. C. C.

' PENNED UP PEOPLE MAY STARVE, Water Shuts Out Succor and All Provis ions Ate Swept Away. UNHEARD OF DAMAGE TO KAILEOADS AVaterloo. Juno 25. The later reports of the'storm indicate that it was worse than at first reported. A courier has J ust arrived at Aurelia from Cherokee, giving tho informa tion that 103 houses at Cherokee have been washed away, but no further loss of life is roported thero, beyond the four persons whose drowning was reported yesterday. It is known that six persons met their death in the country around about Correctlon ville, and tho number is reported as in creased to eight. Houses, barns and out houses were floating in the Little Sioux, past Cherokee all day. No one knows whero theycome from, but they are presumed to bo from Sutherland. Last night most of the distressed people of Cherokee found shelter in the G. A. It. and Odd Fellows Halls, and arrangements were made whereby they might be cared for until some action is taken. To-day the town pre sented a very sorrowful appearance. Thore houses that remain on the flat arc almost buried in mud. People have begun to clean up the rubbish. The destruction in Cherokee alone is aDout $100,000, besides, almost all stock pasturednear the water WS3 carried away. Starvation Threatens Isolated People. Aurealia, nine miles east of Cherokee, re ports at 1:10 p. m. storm clouds gathering. An Illinois Central work train has succeeded In reaching a point one mi'o east of Chero kee. Further progress is barred by a vast expanse of water, stretching as far as the eye can reach. It is feared there will be added to present sufferings of citizens the pangs of hunger. All the surplus stock of provisions was destroyed by the flood, and the town is now as effectually isolated from the outc,r world as if no railroads were in ex istence. No one dare to brave tho flood in boats. The wagon Toads are all impassable in the valley, and no prospect is seen of reaching the people from any direction until the water subsides. The storm of Tuesday was the severest that ever visited Northwestern Iowa.and the rain, which fell in torrents, was accom panied by a high wind that bordered on a cyclono. Hundreds of acres of crops were devastated, and the destruction to other property was enormous. All the Railroads Knocked Out. The damage to railroad property is espe cially heavy. The north and south branches of the Illinois Central from Cherokee were rendered useless for the time being, and no trains are running. The main line is idle west of Cherokee by tho taking away of the bridges and the damage to the roadbed. Be tween Le Mars and Sioux City Mills the track Is under water. The Chicago and Northwostern, the Chicago, St. Paul. Minne apolis and Omaha, and the Sioux City and Jcorthern are also heavy losers. The Illinois Central refuses to sell tickets or ship freight from Chicago to any point west of Aurelia. At Le Mars the Floyd river is three-fourths of a mile wide, and everything is under water. Tho track has been carried away and the bridges are gone, all the result of a wall of water six feet high that rolled down the stream yesterday and irresistibly carried everything before it. Vice President Harahan and General Super intendent Sullivan are both on the scene directing the operations of a large force of repairmen. The Omaha branch is under water for many miles. As far ns is known about 150 miles'of tho Illinois Central Com pany's tracks arp blocked or out of sight. KANSAS SUFFEBS, TOO. Incalculable Damage to Growing Crops by the Recent Rains. Topeka, June 23. Four o'clock this morn ing the heaviest rain storm of tho season set in at this" place, and it continued nlmost un til noon. Reports all along the railroads Indicate that the storm is general only in the, eastern third of the State. Both the Santa Fe and the Kansas Pacific Railroads are wdshed out between hero and Lawrence, and all west-bound trains are laid up at Law rence waiting until the track can be fixed. AVashouts have also occurred at AVilllams town. on the Union Pacific and on the Santa Fe. The damage to the crops will be great, as the harvest is in full blast in Eastern and Southern Kansas. AVheat already out and lying in the field, or carelessly shocked, will be almost entirely mined. TENNESSEE FAMILIES EIGHT. A Pitched Battle in Which a Number Are Dangerously "Wounded. Lewisbubo, Teux, Juno 25. A difficulty occurred two miles from hero in Cochran county, growing out of somo trouble be tween Lee Farmer and Jim Taylor. They live about six miles from this placo.

Relatives of both parties were there, including old man Nix, his son, Nan Nix, and son-in-law, Fount McConnell and J. T. Largen, and two boys, D. Thrasher and AValter Alexander. The other side consisted of Jim Taylor and his sons John, Bud, Bine and a boy. The lawsuit was satisfactorily settled, and all were starting home when hot words began between Nan Nix and John Taylor, and Nix shot Taylor, whereupon tho latter drew his knife and cut Nix in several places. Tho relatives of both parties were soon on the ground, and a pitched battle ensued, in which rocks, knives, sticks and pistols were used. They fought until all were tired but nobodv was killed. The following are the wounded: Jim Taylor, skull crushed and may die; John Taylor, shot in the lungs and badly cut, condition dangerous; Bine Taylor, head beaten and face cut, condition critical; A. T. McConnell, bad cut in back of head; J. T.

A hke occurred yesterday afternoon in the basement of theflve-story building of Colum bia College,New York.caused by a barrel of al cohol Igniting while being removed from the basement. The janitor, AVilliam Simpson, Thomas Tiglie and Dr. John Northnp were badly burned. They were taken to Bellevuo Hospital. The damage was not more than $100.

The property was owned by John Bemritter, and the loss will amount to $7,OC0, on which there Is an Insur ance of $1,500. The fire originated from a sudden pressure of gas, which set the build ing on Are and was not discovered until it had gained too much headway. At Philadelphia early yesterday morning the big stables of the gas works, fronting on Chestnut street, were dostroyod. For a time the Rink and the Baltimore and Ohio station weie threatened.

Brennan, His Slayer, Shot Him In the Back Strong Evidence of a Conspiracy to As sassinate Wood His Taw Partner De mands Justice of the Governor. tSPECtAL TELEGKAM TO THE DISPATCH. Topeka, Kas., June 25. Kerorts received h.ere put an entirely new phase on the kill ing of Colonel Sam Wood by James Brennan, at Hugotown, Tuesday. The friends of Colonel Wood have written tnat he was as sassinated, and. declare that the reports sent out by the correspondents were previously submitted to the faction to which tho mur derer belonged, and approved. Tho most complete detail of the killing is given in a letter written to A. N. Mackay, of this city, law partner of the murdered man. Mackay refused to give tho name of his correspond ent, as he feared he would bo violently dealt with. The writer declares that there was a con spiracy among the friends of Botkin, Judge of that district, against whom Wood had caused impeachment proceedings to be brought, to kill him. While Wood was In the courtroom . Brennan talked pleasantly with Mrs. AVood, who was waiting In a bnggy for her husband. As soon as Wood came out of the Court House Brennan shot him in tho shoulder. Wood Tan, and Brennan shot him in tho back of the head. Stilt AVood did not fall, but turned around and Brennan shot him under the right eye. The letter furthersays: "Everything points to premeditation on tho part, of Brennan, ns he stood Sheriff Cann off and surrendered only to the Sheriffs of Stanton and .Morton counties, who had been in town all night by an arrangement with somebody." AVhen the letter was received Mr. Mackay visited the Governor and insisted on tho At torney General being sent to Stephens county to prosecute tho case. AVilliam O'Conner, the County Attorney of Stephens, whose duty it is to prosecute the case, was an enemy of AVood, the latter having in stituted proceedings contesting his election. Mackay also insisted that a judge from an other district be called on to try the case. It has been impossible to get any reliable news from Stephens county until to-day. The telegraph operators near the town of Hugotown refused to make any reports, and tho newspaper reports had to be submitted before they were sent out. All the leading Iiapers in the State denounce the killing, and t will probably result In forcing Judge Bot kin from the bench. FIVE MEET WATERY QBAVES. A Pleasure Craft Run Into and Sank by a Towboat at Cincinnati. CraccrsATi, June 25. Five people, all of the best known citizens of Riverside, were out floating down the Ohio river in a yawl at 10:15" to-night. Suddenly the hills echoed the screams of the women.
