Both pitchers were doing excellent up to that time, and in fact all through the game, but King had the best of it as, though the same number of hits were made, thoso of the Pittsburgers were harder. The all around work of both teams was good, and the game was in teresting throughout, Bier bauer did some fine playing at second, getting under fly balls that looked like sure hits, llanlon's error wa on the first ball sent out, a short fly which he dropped, but it made no difference in the score as Long was thrown out later trying to steal second. Boston -was the first to score, in the last half of the fourth. Long flew out Stovey tingled and stole second. Quinn flew out, and Storey scored on Nash's single. It was immediately tied in the first half of the fifth. After Bierbauer went out Hanlon singled and scored on Kcilly's three-baser In the mqfintnue Mack flew out and Maul struck out leaving Keilly at third. It vt as in the last half or the fifth that the slaughter occurred. Brodio led off with a tingle and Tucker flew out. Miller muffed Logo's foul flj-, and a moment later a grounder was sent to him to handle. Instead of putting it to first he sent it to second, but Both Men Got Their Bases. Bennett got four bad ones and the bases were filled Nichols s ;nt a sacrifice fly to ! Jlnui and Bid" f scored. A bascon balls to Long fiiled the i- up again, and Stovey drove the three men in by a two-bagger, (juinn v ent out at first and the inning closed. In the sixth inning the Pirates got a couple more. King led off with a corking three bagger. Miller got a base on balls and went to second on Beckley's sacrifice, while King scored on Tucker's wild throw to cut him off Another was added in the eighth, when MiPer scored on his single, followed by Bccklej 's triple. This closed the run-making. Attendance, .i,500. The iiftrrnoon game was one of the most le-porate strmrgles between two pitchers ever see'i on the home grounds. Baldwin anil staley were arrayed against each other, and the 5,467 people present enjoyed the con test immensely. Tho twirlers performed in the most bnfliant manner, and it vt as evi dent that if ever thev wished to pitch a v in ning game, yesterday was the time. Of coure the visitors wou, but that was no fault of Baldwin's. As far as his pitching vtas concerned, the home players -ought to have won. but his support vtasnot as good as that accorded Stalej . If Baldwin had been well taken care of by his fielders, the score at the end of the game khould have been one to nothing in favor or the home players. This means that he had a shade the better of Staley in the pitching argument. It a blunder in the outfield had lot occurred, there v. ould have been only one hit made off Mark's delivery. The blunder was a painlul one, and doubtless not as pain ful to anvbody as it was to Hanlon and Car roll and Baldwin. Bow It Happened. It happened in the third inning. After tv o men were out Stovey knocked a long ily to right center field. Both Hanlon and Carroll ran for it, and either could have cap tured it handily. But when near it both mopped, and the ball fell between them. This allowed Stovey to be credited with a threo-baso hit, when he should easily have, been out. Then (Jninn followed with a real ihree-lmgger to right, scoring Stovev. This was enough to rattle any pitcher, but Bald win kept calm, and not another run should nave been made by the visitors if Miller had .iot again loomed up t ith a mistake. This wa in the seventh inning. After i'.rodie had been retired on strikes Tucker imde a Miigle, and then Lowe knocked a grounder to Miller. The latter got the ball ill right, but made a v.Hd throw to first, tiennett followed with a long fly. This -hould hfive retired the side, but Tucker -cored from third on the throw in. Alto gether amid the most brilliant pitching ever lone for the home players both games were .o-t. Staley, of course, pitched with vigor, being xtremely anxious to defeat'the club that .rad released him. His pitching was one more proof of the mistake made by the supreme authority of the club in being so eager in casting Staley adrift. A Biamond for Staley. "When tho latter appeared at the plate he was presented with a valuable diamond -tuil and a handsomo basket of flowers by nls Pittsburg friends. He then proceeded to strike out. In tho fourth inning, when the score was me to nothing In favor of the visitors, and i:er Miller -was out, Carroll made a home ua to left field, tielng the score. In the Kth inning the home players looked like winning, as with only Miller out Bccklcy '.nocked out a long hit to center. Brodio an and got under the ball, bnt on account 'the stakes and ropes in the field to keep the expected crowd back, ho could not iiiunage to hold tho ball. Beckley was there lore given a three-bagger for the hit. Ho trU-dto score on Carroll's hit to the infield .nd was easily thrown out at the plate. The i cores: MoranKO GAME. I V I 'ill I I-1TTSBUBG.

Columbus, July . Father White, pastor of tho Cathedral congregation, made a strong appeal before' the Columbus ball club to-day in behalf of Jack O'Connor, and was willing to .vouch for his future conduct, but the management refused to reinstate him. In speaking of the expulsion of O'Connor from the Association by. President Kramer, one of the officials of tho Columbus club stated they had a hard time at the meeting in Cincinnati six weeks ago to keep the As sociation from expelling him, as a majority ot tho clubs were in favor of doing so at that time. It is thought by some that Columbus .will make a demand that O'Connor be reinstated in the Association on the ground that they have a right to discipline their own players, but this courso has not yet been decided upon. The Columbus management has be come so disgusted with tho oonduotof O'Con nor that they do not feel like taking any ac tion which would be in his interest, and they also state that such a man cannot be sola to any advantage, as no one would want him. , ' Association Games.

McKeesport, July 4, The home club won two games here to-day from tho Climax elub. Dunn and Manning were the battery in the morning garnet and Only two hits were made off the former up to the eighth inning, when he let up and allowed some runs and hits. McKeesport won easily. The features of the gameVere the work of Baker, of the home team, and Wasmund, of the visitors, both players doing great work in the way of scoring runs. In the afternoon game Krumm and Colgan were'the battery and their work was won derful. Krumm struck out 16 men and all the hits made, were mere scratches. Dallas saved the game in the fifth by a great catch of a liner when three men were on bases. Clark, McKeesport's hard hitting first base man, did not play and the club was some what weak to-day. Harry Colgan did ele gant 'batting in both games to-day. Cos tello, usually a brilliant fielder, hod an off day and piled up four errors, only one of which was costly. MORNING GAME. M'KEES'T.

After the exhibition that Cary and Remington made of the British athletes at Manchester last week. It is not to be wondered at that they took fright and refused to travel across the channel, and took their chances of winning a few second or third prizes. This made It rather hard on the French athletes, but they turned out very strongly and their neighbors, the Ger mans and the Belgians, sent the best men they had so as to make a showing. The Ex ecutive Committee of the Racing Club of France went to the trouble of fencing their grounds. They then laid out a track which measured 4S5 meters, and cut the grass down so that it resembled velvet, carpet. The only trouble was in selecting tho events. The walkers were ignored, and both Lange and Nicol remained behind, tittle JoeQneck berner accompanied the team. He. was also disappointed ut being shut out of the show. The Frenchmen, however.asked him to give an exhibition of his prowess, and so well did he acquit himself that they will present him with a special prize. Quite a Famous Crowd. The crowd that gathered on the grounds, which are situated at the extreme end of the Bois du Boulogne, was"a truly representa tive one. Nearly all the Americans residing in Paris occupied seats on the grand stand or walked around the grounds. Among them were Mrs. Russell Anson, Mrs. McKay, Whitelaw Keid, Theodoro Tilton and Nat Goodwin. Leslie Buce, with Mrs. General Logan and Mr. and Mrs. John A.

The programme contained nine events. Iu the first, which was over 110 meters, or 111 yards, Cary was called upon- to compete against seven Continental athletes. He vt on his heat very easily in 11 seconds, and in the trial heat ho reduced the time to 10 4-5 sec onds, R. Do Scvulios second, about 12 yards to the bad. Malcolm Ford carried off tho hurdle race, which was over the same dis tance. His time was 18 seconds. Beat the French Champion. R. Cavally, of Paris, the French champion, was third to the American. The half mile run went to H. L. Dodman, Manhattan Athletic Club, with L. Merlin, of Paris, sec ond. Time, 2 minutes 15 seconds. H. L. Hallock did a grand performance in the rnn nlne hish tumrj. He cleared 5 feet 11 inches. and almost got over 6 feet. Malcolm Ford was second. The first reverse that the Manhattan men got was in the running" Droad jump, when Victor Mapes, of Columbia College, won at 22 feet 5 inches. The ground was too hard for him to extend himself, otherwise a new record would have been made. Malcolm Ford took second prize with 19 feet 2 inches. Only two athletes competed in tho pole vault. They trcro Eugene Van Schaick, who has charge of the American team, and Hal lock. The pole was so. slender that tho con testants feared to trust too much to it in case it should break. Van Schaick won at 6 feet 10 inches. Hallock got 6 feet 6 inches. The quarter-mile run was a very easy thing for Istortimer"Remington, who won in 50 4-5 seconds, with R. De Sevallos second in 64 seconds. Six came out for tho 1,645-yard race. J. S. Roddy and S. Borel, the French champion, ran a great race until the last 109 yards, when Roddy spnrtednnd won by four yards.

One of the committee asked The Dispatch repre sentative if he thought some trees 500 feet distant were in no danger. After the game3 were over both M. Gondinet, President of the runnine club, and Whitelaw Reid mado speeches to the athletes, and in the evening Mr. Reid, gave the American athletes a re ception fit his house. The team will remain In Paris until Tuesday, when they will le tum to London to prepare for their contests at the London Athletic Club sports on Sat urday.

Toung and L. Suyro have gone home. They are on tho Majestic, and it is said that their sudden re turn is owing to a disagreement. It is as serted that they would not train hard. EP0BTS AT DU E0IS.

WIND AND DUST'BADLI INTEEFEEB Collins' Plunger Mates a Eecerd and Wins the Pacing Event- A SMALL BUT LIYELY ATTENDANCE The fact that there were so many greater attractions elsewhere yesterday afternoon, added to tho general Impression that no very fast horses were entered, caused a mod erate crowd to assemble at the Pittsburg" Driving Track at Homewodd. Not more than a couple hundred people were scat tered about the various stands when Starter Malcolm A. McDCnald yelled "Go" to the flyers entered for the first race shortly after 2 o'clock, and the succeeding trains did not greatly swell tho crowd during thai re mainder of the afternoon. , The wind blew right merrily at this time and clouds of dust swept np the track in tho teeth or the drivers as tney came uown mo home stretch, and later on the clouds let down enough rain to make the entire after noon, with the exception of a few minutes about 6 o'clock, most disagreeable. The Ladles Were Present. There were, however, almost as mony ladies present as men, and they braved the storm fully as well as the sterner sex, most of them remaining until 7:20 p.m., when the last heat of the third race decided as to who was the winner for the most Interesting class on the programme. None of the races sold well; there were not enough people, with money, present to make the day interesting forrthe sellers, and It was only at intervals that any interest was manifested in this direction. The win ner was the favorite in almost every in stance. Tho judges were Malcolm A. Mc Donald, William A. Hadfleld and Michael JlcConnlck. The 2:50 Mixed Class. This was the first race on the programme of events and It was the shortest, since it re quired but three heats to decide. The purse offered was $200. Originally there were seven entries, but P. Hfggins' Little Queen, br. nr". dropped out of the contest before the bell was struck for the first time. George B. Whitflelds' Little Mame, br. m., and Jas. T, Gormley's Porsey H, rn.g. were distanced in the second heat, leaving bnt four to come to the pole for the final heat. The animals seemed to have considerable trouble. In getting off and it was only after five starts in the first heat,. four in the second and four in the third that they got away. In the second heat King's Billy M, g. g.,passed under the wire first, but the judges awarded the heat to Collins' Count V b. g., owing to the gains made by tho former by running. It was tho opinion ot many tnattneTrray geiuing uum "2; taken the heat if properly handled. The second heat was marked by a lively shower. The summary or this race is as ioiiows; Count V. b. b. g..

The second race, 2:30 class pacinsk for a purse of $200 was very interesting. It took six heats to determine the winner- and then there were some who thought that it should have taken a seventh. Everything went satisfactory until the fourth heat when Evans' Shaker b. g. was coming down the home stretchy'at least a length and a half ahead of the favorite, Bessemer. The driver Instead of keeping a straight course, drove from first place to third and thenback again, shutting the favorite out completely. The Judges decided that this was a foul and placed Shaker fifth, giving first place to Plunger, who bad crept in fi ont of Bessemer during the confusion which followed. No time was announced for this heat, for the timekeeper failed to take the time of the second ani mal. Shaker's time was the best made during the whole course of the race, 2:2 nod. while the decision of the Judges was conceded to be Just, there were many who thought It hard on tho horse that he should not be given his time. The last heat of this race came very near costing the winner a fine of $25, because on the home stretch the dciverjooked back, as one ofthe judges thouzht, with the inten tion of preventing the others, from pushing to the front. A vote of two to one saved him, however, and he was allowed to keep the heat he had won. The summary of this race was as follows: Plunger, b. g. J. C.

The Final .Event ox the Bay. , It was not until 5 o'clock that It was de cided to allow the third race trotting, 2:35 class, for $200 to take place. At this time the sun came out and the wind died out, and the judges decided to allow it to go- on, so that the people, who gave no Indication of getting tired ofthe sport, might not be dis appointed. Some of them thought that it would be the great event of the day and the race sold better than the others from tha start. There vere four entries, all of them well known to the habitues of the track and it was expected-that there would be enough pleasure to warrant staying at the track until dark. It required four heats to decide as to the winner, but after the second it was easy to be seen that the stallion Louio C would carry away the purse. Louie Cs powers were bronght out to Inst advantage in the home stretch in each of the last three lients. He closed up a long gap between himBelf and Peter R, who kept the pole until the last quarter was reached, and" flew in a winner in each instance by a length or more. Olivette was distanced In the third heat, but she did better than was expected br those who knew her qualities. It rained hard during the entire fourth heat.
