TSFECIAI TELEGHAM TO TnE DISPATCIT.1
Philadelphia, Aug. J4. Silver King,
the blonde jomh with the cambric voice
and claMicconception, was
selected by Manager Ic
Gnnniglc to lead Palmer
O'Xeil's pirates to the
slaughter to-dav, and he
acquitted himself with
signal ability and artistic
finisli. Mr. King, in com
mon with seeral other
members of that band
which started out at the
beginning of this calami
tous season of 1891 to bluff
its way to the pennant
S tt w''b no other particular
-'j H claim to merit than the
fact that it members had a
batting averag of "300," ha discovered by
this X'tz? that he is constructed of the same
clay :is other less pretentious pitchers, and
that although he receives a salary out of all
proportion to his worth, he is still subject
to the hnocking-out process. To-day he was
a cross between marmalade and tapioca, and
beginning with the second inning until the
end of the fifth, when he was relegetcd to
the bench to ruminate upon the mistakes of
life, the mu-ic of the base hit was a cheer
ful accompaniment to the march ot the
Quakers around the bases, but when old

of things in the Fivth, there was a change
and but for Lou liicrbauer'a failure to
handle Hamilton's grounder in the eighth
he would have retired the Phillies without
scoring. "While King was being hammered
for keeps, Gleason was pitching ball with
winch the Pitt-burgs connected spasmodi

Galvm and Bcrgr-r succeeded King and
Miller in the sixth, the latter gome to left in

LOOKS LIKE A COLLAPSE.
Some Strong Bumors About the Disbanding
of tho Cincinnati Association Club.
CiiiCiK. ati. Aug. 11 The air is full of wild
rumors about the probable final disposition
of the Cincinnati Association Club. Man
ager Bancroft says he has not been ordered
to disband his club. On tho contrary, ho
has been ordered to go to St. Louis with the
team. The stories thatlhe club bad Rone
under, as published in the morning papers
here, brought the players of the club down
oarly demanding their pay. They wore re
fused money, but were told to return in tho
afternoon and they would be paid. There
are telegrams at the Dennlson House for
Manager Gillette, of the Milwaukee Club.
Something has been going on, but what it is
cannot be learned certainly.
It is sure, however, that Gillette's visit to
Louisville had some significance, and that
Von der Abe and Brush and he have not
been holding consultations for nothing.
After Another Pitcher.
Sew York, Aug. 14. For- soma days past
Westervelt, the pitcher of the Englewood
Field Club of the Amateur League, has, on
Invitation, been giving the Sow York man
agement exhibitions of Ills skill. He has
gone up to the Polo Grounds on several
mornings recontly and pitched to the bats
men of the home team. The result of his
work has evidently been satisfactory to the
management, for estcrd ly he was asked to
pitch the retntinder of the season for $1,000,
with a proposition of $3 000 fornextyear pro
vided he ga e satisfaction. Westervelt now
has this offer under consideration and there
is hardly any question but that ho will ac
cept, Westervelt Is about22 years of age, smooth
faced, is short but ery stoutly built, and
weighs about 150 pounds. In the games ho
has pitched against the amateur batters in
this neighborhood he has developed tern
liflc speed and had his men completely at
his mercy. The management feel confident
he will develop into a valuable pitcher.
Ton der Abe Denies It.
St. Locis, Aug. 14. Pi esident Yon der Aho
said this morning that the Cincinnati club
w ill not be disbanded, but will play its regu
lar schedule for the remainder of the season.
The temporary arrangement perfected at
Louisville practically assures this. If Mil
waukee is admitted to the American Asso
ciation it will bo as a ninth club and it will
play no games unless some other club sur
tendcrs a franchise.
Providence May Also Go,
FnoviDEircE, R. I., Ang. 14 The Providence
Baseball Club will probably have to go
under. Umpire Cheney received a telegram
from President White, of the Eastern Asso
ciation, last night announcing that the
League could not provide funds to meet the
pay roll of 'the club. The players may de
cide to continue together on the co-operative
plan, but this is hardly probable.

Kochestek, Aug. 14. There was a battle
royal at the driving park this afternoon be
tween Rosalind "Wilkes and McDoel in the
free-for-all trot, which ended in a triumph
for the handsome mare after one of the most
exciting contests ever seen. It was the
close of the grand circuit at this point, and
the finale was one that will be memorable in
turf history. The weather" came near pre
venting a cleaning up of the programme, as
the rain fell before the last two events were
over, but tho track kept good onongh for the
horses to go on.
Tho 2-25 class promised well with a field of
eight, but Hyland T outdid even Guy in his
antics, and Stewart had to abandon the at
tempt to get him away. This mado it casior
for Playboy, who had the foot of tho party
all through, whi'o Dave Wilson did not get
to the half-mile polo in the first heat and
Fugleman also, failed to save his distance.

Before the fi ee-for all ttot began Rosalind
Wilkes sold at $50 and tho Hold at$40. As Mc
Doel and Alviu were both dangerous Tur
ner plajed a waiting game and let tho pan
try conclusions for twolieats. Al in led till
very near the wire in the first, but McDoel
beat him by a hcr.d in 2-17K. The next time
the clip was faster, but again the geldlmx
out finished the Canadian liorso in 2.17K.
Tho race bejrau in earnest then with the
betting S to 6 on McDoel. Alvin went away
in tho lend lor the third heat, and held Rosa
lind Wilkes nt hiswheel tothe homestretch.
McDoel kept back till the third quarter and
then made a spurt which earned him up to
the leaders. Alvin's driver evidently wanted
McDoel to win, as he laid ou( tar enough for
tho latter to get through at tho pole. Doblo
improved tho opportunity, ana when Alvin
dropped back the two cracks had a
IIAMMBK ASD TONGS FIGHT
down the stretch. McDoel was in front at
the distance, but could not cany his brush
to tho wire, and when Turner rallied the
Wilkes maro sho drew up again, and the
pair went under the wire like one horse.
If anything Rosalind had it, but the Judges
could sco no difference, and declared it a
dead heat in 2.15.
Bctorc they did so Turner spoke his piece
on account of the way Alvin's pilot had ear
ned him out, and Doblo had his say as w ell.
It was a close call for both, but tho decision
favored Turner, as his mare was evldentlv
able to go more fast miles than McDoel. The
fourth heat was the easier for her when Mc
Doel went to pieces at the first turn, and
she plajed with Alvin in 2-17. It was rain
ing w hen they camo out asim, nnd Rosalind
was never headed in 2 21'i- This left only
the two heat winners lor tuo deciding mile,
and Doble, w ho is far Iroin well, resigned
tho reins to Starr. McDoel dropped back as
the boat progressed, and w hen he make a
tired break coming home It was all over,

Huron and the Futurity.
Sew Yonii, Aug. 14 General W. II. Jack
son, of Belle Meade Stock Farm, ncarSash
ville, Tenn., was a visitor at the Jerome
Park race tiack jesterday, and concerning
the statement which recently came Irom tho
West to tho effect that Huron, now the piop
erty of Ed Corrigan, had been declared out
of the Futurity Stakes of the Coney Island
Jockey Club, said that such a declaration
could only have been made or authorized by
Mr. Corrigan. General Jackson bred Huron,
which is bj' Iroquis Brunette, and sold him
at the Belle Meade annual sale to Mr. Corri
gan. The colt was sold with his engage
ments, one of winch was in the Futurity.
General Jackson's rule to avoid forfeits ac
cumulating against himself is to inquire of
purchasers whether or not they wish colts
to remain in stakes they are entered in. If
they do, tho purchasers are liable for for
feits, and if they do not. General Jackson
obtains authoiity for hls.azcnt to declare
them. Sow it is said that Huron, which Mr.
Corrigan hoped to win the gieat race with,
was occi.iicd out, and Mr. Coirigansajshe
did not authorize the declaration. General
Jackson asserts' that it is impossible that his
agent could have made the declaration with
out boing authorized to do so, but ho will
investigate tho matter, He aid j'esterday
that if Huron had been declared he would
ascertain who was losponsible for it. Union

of an Aged Ebensburg Man.
A JOHNSTOWN PROFESSOR'S FALL.
Tons of Toivder in West Virginia Explode,
Killing Two Men.
MINOR NEWS FROM THE THEEE STATES
(SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TnE DISrATCn.
Johnstown, Aug. 14. Samuel Reese,
an aged man living in the outskirts of
Ebensburg, was foully murdered last night.
He had been working lor a neighbor during
the day and returned home at G o'clock.
Shortly after George McCoy, who lives
near, heard a shot fired and other noises in
the Itecsc house. He hurried to the place
and saw Eeese lying in the door with a bul
let through his head, nnd heard the sound
of a horse and buggy in hasty retreat. It
was afterward learned that a man and wo
man had been seen in the buggy in question
by several parties, among them two boys at
the Eeese honse. Inquiry seemed to estab
lish the fact that the two were Albert and
Sadie Price, who were accomaanied by a
little hoy. The Sheriff at once organized a
posse and followed the trail of the bnggy
through to Armagh, where the trail was
lost.
The Sheriff then went on to Blairsville,
hut the parties in the buggy had evidently
got away in the mountains near the wild
regions of Mack Lick creek. Tne County
Commissioners hae offered a reward of f 500
for the apprehension of the murderers, and
the town is wild with excitement. Sadie
Price is an old offender, and has been a fre
quenter of the criminal dock in Johnstown,
where she has lately made her residence.
Albert Price, her supposed husband, has
also been in jail in this city.
THE MOTIVE IS UNKNOWN. '
Nothing is known as to what prompted
the murder, as Ecese was a shiftless fellow
and had no money of any consequence.
Recently Reese had a falling out w ith his
wife, and she left him alone in the home,
Sirs. Reese going to her friends. The
Price woman then started to keep house for
him, but suddenly left about a week ago.
It is stated by some parties that Reese had
valuables In tho house and that the woman
wanted them. m
A dispatch from Ebensburg sa s; It was
found that the patties interested in the
murder had broken Into the house In the
old man's absence by means of a window on
the first floor. Trunks and desks in the
house w ero broken open and ransacked and
their contents strewn over the floor. They
evidently bad plenty of time to look o er
the whole house before the old man re
turned. Reese came in tho front door and
had evidently been shot don n without a mo
ment's warning as ho reached out to turn
the knob of the door.
Tlieic is no doubt in the minds of the offi
cers that thoy are on the track of tho guilty
pair, as it has been ascertained lator that
the Prices drovo into Ebensburg during the
afternoon from tho dliection of Altoona.
1 hey w ere in a buekboai d, which was aban
doned lor a time, then they started toward
the Black Lick legion.
