These self-same rhillies reappeared here yesterday. nnd walked off the field with a victory that the local players had. any amount of chances to get. But the fates were dead against these chances, and they were not propitiablo But whatever may havo been the opinions of our siler-hairedhero, King, as to the causes of defeat, or whatever may havo been the opinions of tlio spectators in general on the matter, the fact remains that King Himself Was Responsible for two runs and his catcher was to blame for another. This fact somewhat modifies tho chargo of the Phillies bringing with them a Jonah influence to this city. IHit despite the fact that tho home men -wrc beaten, nnd despite the lact of errors and mi'takes, the contest was an exciting one. It was one of the pins and-necdlcs kind: neck and neck almost ironi the start. That's the sort of arrument that cianks like to see. Once the Msitois had the boldness to go to the front by two runs. but this lead was only maintained for an inning, nnd shortly after ward th "core wns tied. Certainly this was erv exciting, and what added more to the excitement wa tho fact that in no inning was more than one run made. "Shugart. the now shortstop from Minne apolis, appeared, and did very well, indeed, lie was not long in getting into favor with the occupints of tho bleachers, and when he made his three-bagger, he sent the cranks wild. But the w ildness of that moinont wns nothing compared to tho wlldness nt tho Mage when he brought in the run that tied the score. This was pleasing to see, par ticularly, because or the young man's first Hppeuraiice hero But he also Tielded well, nnd on one occasion made a very pretty pick-up and throw. He hud not many difli cul: chances, it is true, but what chances ho had he accepted in a manner that leads one to believe that he will flW the bill. He is ap parently an unassuming little fellow, nnd the probabilities are that he willhe a great lavoritc here. Plajed a Very Good Game. The Thijlies plaj cd a very good game, and Esper, the left handed man, pitched with lery great effect. Ho was a puzzler to jtecklcy, who bats left-handed. Shugart is also a left-handed batter, but he changed sides on Mr. Iper. The latter was tolerably well supported, but two of tho 'three runs innde oil his delivcrvwero earned. The out fielders supported E"per very i ell. At one or two stages of tho game there were verv hostile demonstrations -against Umpire Lynch. Twieo or thrice his de cisions did'not harmoni7e with the expecta tions of .i number of the spectators, and juite a scene follow ed. To say the least this Kind of conduct is not fair to an umpire with the reputation of Mr. I-ynch. It is possible that ho may have been wrong, but he has silways two sides to consider when he makes u decision, and no umpiro evci lived who was or is more impartial than Mr. Lynch. And his judgments are so often right and he la in a position to judge so much better than any of us far removed from tho diamond that our feelings ought to be curbed when his views of a play are contrary to ours. He is an able, tearless and impartial man and the jjrobabiiities arc that the spectators are oltcner wrong m their judgment of a close plavthan he is. Depend upon it, he is too iibleaman to be treated as part ofyester davV crow d treated him. Ilfiun getting commenced in the first inning. Miller opened up hostilities and struck out. Iteckley reached fir-t on a fumble by Myers nnd got to second on a passed ball. Carroll then leached lirst on balls. Bierbauer then knocked out a grounder which bothered the infieldeis so long that while thev vero putting out Can-oil at second, Beckley scored. In the second half the score was tied. Hamilton got to first on called balls and Mole second. Thompson s sacrifice sent him to third and then Delchanty came with n tremendous three-bagger to left and Ham ilton w alked home. Hill Brown's Big Hit. In the second inning after Bierbauer had caught Shindle's flj . Brow n sent out n rasp ing triplo to light field, and a moment later ho scored on a single by Allen. In the third inning, after two men were out. Gray made n 6ingle, and Mj ers followed with a doublo to right center. Hanlon threw the ball to Fhugart, who threw it to Berger just in time tojuib Gray at tlio plate, but Berger was a little too anxious and dropped the ball, nllow iug Gray to score. Then the homo team wero next to tally, hut nut before tho lourth inning. At that stage, after Bierbauer was out. Shugart longed out a splendid three-bagger to right field, i.nd scored on Hanlon "s single. Han- Jon sto'e second, and reached third on IteiUy'-h.t Ileilly also sto'e. second. Berger then ' kncu&cr! a liy.to center, and Hanlon tried to -core on t lie throw in, but the ball was not fai enough into the held, ana Han lon was easily thrown out. The eighth inning came, and the score was ngain tieL Attei iirroll was retired Uicr hauer knocked out a three-bugger, and then Shugait again loomed up. lie cleverly Innded the ball betu een the homo plate anil lirst, and not only got to first himself, but senreu ISicrbauci amid dcalenlng cheers. In the second l.ali the fatal run was made. King struck tiro out, but he gave Mycin hU ba-c on balls. Awild pitch sent him to sec ond, and a passrd ball advanced him to third. Then Shir.dle just landed the ball nicely over M!Ugnrt'he,id lor a fine little Kife hit, and Myers scored the w inning run. In tho ninth Sniiing, with two men out, Stiller got his ua-o on balls, and got to sec ond on a parsed ball nnd to third ona muffed throw- bj Allen. 'Beckley was at bat, and much was expected. Biit Jake struck out, i-ud that ended tho fun.

A Man Sends for-Bis Sweetheart and She Comes From Austria, BUT MABRIES A HANDSOMER MAN. Tie Cambria Iron People Get Bid of Their Big Company Store. MINOR SEWS FROM THE THREE STATES CSFECIAt TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. 1 Bteelton, Pa, July 10. A romance of two countries, with an unhappy ending forat least one of the parties, ended to-night with a marriage and wedding dance. Two years ago Joseph Hearing came to America from Austria, leaving behind pretty Frances Greshoc, who promised to be true to him, and to await the time when he could send for her. Hearing came to this place and worked Hfcrd, saving every penny, so that he might send for Frances. One month ago he found he had accumu lated sufficient to pay her expenses over and have a little left. The lady arrived and went to the house of a friend pending the wedding, which was to occur Monday. Hearing called on her at the time appointed, and was amazed to learn that she had flown with a Handsomer man. The man was Michael "Wincovich, whom Frances had met but two hours when he proposed and was ac cepted. Hearing, however, was a practical fellow, and when his heart had recovered the severe shock promptly entered suit against Win covich to recover $85 for the transportation of Frances and for the handsome wedding trousseau he had bought her. Wincovich settled, nnd to-night lie and his bride nro celebrating with plenty of beer on tap, while poor Kearing, who is a cripple, sits gloomily in his deserted nest. TE0TXBLE 0VEE THE SCALE.

The Executive Com mitteo iaformed them they would agree to give the same scale exactly as the men are working under at the Homestead mill, but they said thoy wanted the scale of last year, and would not accept the Homestead scale. After1 the refusal there was nothing for the Executive Com mitteo to do but quit.

An engineering corps of the Standard Oil Company has bcon in this county this week, making another survey along the pipe lino laid last year by the Standard or by tho Southern Pipe Lino Company, as the smaller company is desig nated, though really the Standard by an other name.

Uncle Sam's Warships Capture One of the Islands in the Harbor AFTER A STUBBORN RESISTANCE. The Bay State's Naval Battalion Gets a Taste of Fig-Ming in A MOST REALISTIC! BIT OP "WAEFAEE rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. Boston, July IK Deer Island was cap tured at noon to-day by an armed force, which landed under the guns of Forts "War ren, Independence and "Winthrop, corralled a few hundred pips and cattle, drove off the troops stationed there, and had Boston's principal reformatory institution at its mercy. All this was accomplished in half an hour. Tho troops were captured and carried back to the ships of the invaders as prisoners of war. The ships belonged to Uncle Sam, and the invading force was the flower of Uncle Sam's future navy. The Marine Battalion had a taste of real warfare, and all the boys acquitted them selves with honor. They feel like battle scarred veterans now, anil two or more of them think seriously of applying for pen sions. They have been wounded in Uncle Sam's servicet nnd feel that they are entitled to some consideration for the scars which they must carry the remainder of their lives. Preparing for the Battle. The ships got under way at 9:30 o'clock and steamed down to President's Boad, opposite Deer Island. Anchors were dropped and preparations were also made for the engagement. Lieutenant Mason was in command of the marines and the Atlanta's artillery men, who were selected as the defenders of the island. A little after 11 o'clock they put off the blue-uniformed marines and white-clad naval troops, and with them two field pieces. After landing, thev took possession of Money Bluff, as the high hill on the island is called, and planted both field pieces in a commanding position on its brow. Meantime, the attacking party formed a line of battle in front of the war ships. There were 28 boats filled with combatants. At 12:30 all was in readiness, and the sig nal for the attack was hoisted from the mainmast of the Newark. Immediately clouds of white smoke belched from the sec ondary battery guns of all the warshipi, and under cover of this bombardment the line of battle closed in on the island. The men were bo eager to land that they didn't care a scrap about wet clothes. Those in the bows of the boats landed dry shod, but those seated, elsewhere jumped overboard in the water, (waist deep, taking care to hold their muskets and ammunition over their heads. Shot and Shell Flew Thick. Each company nuietly formed on the beach. The attacking force was divided, but the brunt of the battle fell on the center and left wings. As soon as the invaders began to climb the hill, sharp shooters made their presence known by the puffs of smoke that came from several points on the hilltop. The attacking force made slow progress with the guns in tow, and if the sharp shooters had been good shots every man of them would have bitten the dust before getting half way up the hill. The invaders were evidently harassed by the sharp shooters, and men were deployed to pick them off. A charge of grape was fired at a troublesome board fence, and most of the sharp shooters skedaddled. In a twinkling there was no enemy in sight, so the left wing hastened to the assistance of the center, where a hot fight was in prog ress. The enemy was strongly entrenched behind a series of low hills, and were backed by the main body of troops on Money Bluff. The two field pieces kept up a con tinuous hre at the attacking party, and there was a roar of musketry. The invad ers carried one after another of the breast-i works, and the garrison slowly retreated to the hill, where there were reinforcements. The Island Finally Captured. The tired soldiers were relieved by fresh troops, and the battle was renewed. The attacking force was overmatched, and was forced back. Orderlies were sent out for reinforcements, and soon the main body was joined by the troops of the left wing. The line of battle was reformed on the side of the hill. The left wing drew the attention of the Deer Island troops by a continuous discharge of musketry, and then the final charge was made by the center. "With fixed bayonets the line swept up the hill, cheering as they went. . The troops behind the breastworks made a bold stand. The invaders swept over the breastworks, however, cheering like the true Yankee salts they are, and the battle was over. The defenders made an uncondi tional surrender, and were escorted back to the boats prisoners of war. The battle was most realistic The naval reserve showed a commendable knowledge of mili tary maneuvers, and gave evidence of stead iness in action that would do credit to veterans. In the evening there was a ball on board the "Wabash, and to-morrow the naval battalion will return to civil life.

Forsyth, of California, who expected to be confirmed by the World's Fair Directory as Chief of the Department of Horticulture. The committee investi gating tho charges against Mr. Forsyth submitted their report, which was simply an unfavorable recommendation as to the confirmation, but expressing no opinion as to the accusations. The Diretory's action on the report was of an equally negative chrracter. Mr. For syth's nomination was neither confirmed nor rejected. The course pursued was to refer the nomination back to the National Board of Control. That body will probably deal with Mr. Forsyth's case to-morrow.
