JIIlwauKre There Is really something funny about the fact of how the Philadelphia team can como hero and knock our slug gers at any stage. It seems to be matterlcss to the veteran Harry Wright whether we have laid all accomplished and aspiring .heroes low or not, his ag gregation invariably land here and record victories tliat under ordinary cir cumstances would ba con sidcred very tame affairs. The lot of players from Philadelphia beat our champiefns at Exposition Park yesterday afternoon, but the victory was almost entirely on account of the local plajcrs not doing better, or as good as they didlai week. IIIDX'T TLAY THEIR GAME. Had our team just played as well yester-dava- they did last week another victory wouM have been added to their list. True, the P lillies- played a great game, and prob ably 1 im Keefe never pitched better, but the l..ne talent were sadly at sea. King was mc in ronn, and he knew it. As a re sult. In retired at the end of the fifth inning, and Jln. took his place. Not a bit wasmade off Slaui's delivery. But the fact that a nianllki Kind has to retire shows that the tram wcrennt iieatenon their merits. When In form. KtiizdK - not rcilre and an oil laj n his part can not well lie CTonibled at, Xoliodvwas more anx ious Tetenla to beat Ihe Phillies- than Kin, but he couldn't get the uall out of harm's way and that's rll there was about it. The Phillies majr jret nothererr MlUr taste of Klne before IheT leave. Manldld-KellandheoiiKhttobejriven a thorough S-lal now as e cannot Improve our position much while ei err patroo of the club i anxious to know whether of not Albert Is a pitcher or anything else than tcn good looking oung fellow. Ward's ork In left licld yesterday was of the shadie-t kind. He did not show judgment enough to lie considered an outfielder, but It Is claimed lor him that he Is an ojtneldt r. The three base hits that went to left field resterdav would In all proba blUtr have lieen "can-lies" ' if Hanlon had been there. This is not i-ald to boom Uaulon, but said as a fact, liecause Ward really did display bad Judgment on balls hit high up in the air. WAHD'S GOOD POINTS. He. In all other respects did well, but It Is not safe to sin that he Is an outfielder shngart also had a .l.i r oil, and In tart the Phillies, as usual, brought all kinds of bail luck with them. The attendance was alKint 1,500 people, very good Tor Jlondav, and although the home team did notwln, the majority of spectators were satisfied that the home plavers were liaviug a day off. The Phillies may, therefore, look out lor two straight deteats. u the first limine lllcrlianer led off with a sluele "To center, aud uirrr tolloweu suit, a fumble oy llelehant allowed Mmgart to reach second on the hit, itnd Ititrbaiicrcot to third Jllller'e sacrifice scored ill'Thauer.

Twelve thonsaud people were on the grounds when the race was called. The day was raw and wraps and o crcoats were to be seen every where The bookmakers fared well on the result, as Kingston was held at prohibitive odds, 1 to 5 being the shortest price against him at any time, while Van Burcn, at 4 to 1, was nibbled at by the small betters. There w as much cheering and handclapplng when the two horses paraded before the grandstand. Hamilton was astrldeKIngston, while Ted Sloan had the mount on Yan Burcn. There was no delay at the post, and the two horses bounded away on eveu terms. Sloan tried hard to send Van Buren to the front, but the blick bo? from the East would not have it that way. Kingston clung to Van Bnren's neck around the turn, and the iair race'd like a team for half a mile, where Klngstoushowed In front. "Van llnrcn's beaten," shouted the .crowd, and so It proved.

The Porte Knuckles to Russia in 'the Dardanelles Dispute. VIOLATING THE TBEATY OP 1841. Her Ancient.Enemy Granted Privileges En joyed by No Others., TITE EASTERN QUESTION MAY EEOPEN Lojtdon, Aug.. 31. The information tele graphed to the Standard from Constanti nople, to the effect that the Porte had yielded to Russia's demands respecting1 the Dardanelles, seems to be founded on facts. The question at issue between Russia and the Porte referred to the detention at in tervals recently of the Russian volunteer fleet's steamships bound for Vladivostock, the extreme terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railroad on the sea of Japan. The most re cent case was the detention of the steamer Moscow, of the Russian volunteer fleet. The treaty of 1841, confirmed at London in 1871 and at Berlin in 1878, was concluded be tween the five great powers and Turkey, and provides that no ship of war belonging to any nation save Turkey shall pass the Dardanelles without the express consent of Turkey, all merchant ships being also re quired.to show their papers to the Ottoman authorities. Kussia claimed that those vessels or tbo volunteer fleet wero not war ships in tho proper sense of the word. The Porte, on the other hand, replied thnt even wero this admitted to bo nfact the vessels detained wero war transports since they had on board a. number of troops intended for Vladivostock. To this Kussia replied that th men being cenveved to the Eastern terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railroad wero not soldiers but reserveist? who wero doing duty as railroad laborers. To these apparently unanswerable argu ments from Turkey's powerful enemy, the Porte appears to have been forced to sub mit in tho most humble manner, tliOMgh there is no reason to doubt that Turkey must first have asked theflve powers If they were willing to support her should she still further contest tho point with Russia. Apparently the powers have not thought tho mntter worth troubling about in 1S91, though ten years back such u demand might havo led to war. And so the Porte submits, and besides pay ing an Indemnity to Russia forthc detention of her steamers, the preeedentis established which ill peimit ot all such vessels in fut ure being allowed to pass tho Dardanelles in spite of the treaty of 1841. The St. James Gazette this evening holds that the submission of the Porte to fiutsta's demand establishes a precedent whicli per mits Russian war ships to use the passage of the Dardanelles as they please, while the war ships of other nations must -not enter those straits. This news, theieKore, according to the same paper, is by far tho gravest pub lished for some time. A dispatch from Berlin says: The press here is incredulous regarding yesterday's report of tho Turkish Sultan's submission to Russia's demands. The Vossuehe ZeUung says that such action on tho Sultan's part would Justify the removnl of Turkey from among the independent Statos of Europe. WHY MONACO LOST THE PAPACY. The Prince Demanded That Gambling Should Mot Be Interfered With. Rome, Aug. 31. It is asserted that ex Premlcr Crispi will presently publish docu ments intended to demonstrate thut Franco desired to have the Popo loavo Rome in .889. It is learned at the Vatican that any such statement would be quite without founda tion, and that, consequently, in case Signor Crispi should make it, he would be proACd to havo been misinformed. It is a fact that the Pope did in 1889 form the intention of leaving Rome. His first idea was to go to Spain, but when ho consid ered that ho would bo in comparative) isola tion in so remote a country he abandoned that idea and entered into negotiations with the Prince of Monaco, the situation of whose torritory offered easv and convenient access to all visitors and all Catholics. Complcto arrangements wcie mado, the apartments for the Pope were designated, when a letter was received from tho Frinco, making certain conditions rehitivo to the sojourn.of tho Pope. One condition was that gambling should bo allowed to continue, without interruption. The conditions were such that tho Popo could not accept, and a representative was dispatched to Monaco with the hope of securing somo compromise, but tho plan fell through. Rut France had nothing whatever to do with tho matter. Signor Crispi had his suspicions that some thing was going on, but he did not succeed in gstting a correct idea of what it was. THE POPE PAV0BS F0BEI0NEBS. An Important Klectlon of tho Head of a Church Order Coming. Rome, Aug. 31. Considerable interest is felt in diplomatic and ecclesiastical circles in the approaching election of a General of tho Dominicans. This will take place somo tirao in September. At tho Vatican, and es pecially on the part of Pope Leo, it is earn est ly desired that tho choice may fall upon a foreigner, and if possible, a Frenchman. Tho Provincial of Lyons is prominently mentioned in this connection. Ever since the Pope's accession to power he has thrown bis influenco in favor of placing foreigners at tho head of the re ligious orders. He has had two icasons for this course. He has desired to mark in an emphatic manner the international char acter of Catholic institutions and to prepare the way gradually for a foreign Pope, and he has also desired to give renewed vitality to the religious orders in Italy, whore they are less well organized than in other coun tries. In pursuance of this policy he se cured the election of Father D'Andermntt, n Swiss.tobe Genoraliof the Capuchlins, and of another Swiss priest to be General of tho Redemptorists. If now the Dominicans choose a Frenchman, this will be another step in advance, as the choice will fall, not upon a man from a ncutrnl country, hut upon a subject of one of the great political powers. THE AHEHICAN HOG May Make n Triumphal Entry In tho Ger man Empire To-Day. Behlin, Aug. 31 It is reported in Hamburg that all restrictions on American pork will bo removed to-morrow. Minister Phelps, when questioned on this subject, smilingly refused to confirm the report, but said ho would repeat what he said six months ago, to the effect that the Amoricnn hog would enter the ilradcnburg gate before tnis j car's acorns fell. It is known, however, that Mr. Phelps, in his last dispatch to tho German Foreign Office, intimated "plainly to tho officials of that department that the patienco of Presi dent Harrison and Mr. liluino would not last beyond September. A BRITISH LABOR MOVEMENT. Trades Unions Organize a Federation on the American Flan. ' Leeds, Aug. 31.

THE VATICAN ACCOMMODATING IT SELF TO HIE TIMES.J Far-Seeing Leo XIII. Gradually Coming Ont for Independent State and Church Italy's Great Anxiety to Control the . Next Conclavo of Cardinals. Rome, Aug. 31; The attitude of the Italian Government with reference to the next conclave, and the discussions of the same questions in the Italian papers, con tinue the lively agitation In ecclesiastical circles. The leading Cardinals are much impressed with the passionate interest manifested by the Italian politicians, in in sisting on tho necessity of holding the con clave at Rome. ChurchmcYi in prominent positions, how ever, are persuaded that so long as Rome is occupied by two hostile powers it is only in accord with the dignity and interests of the HolySee that the conclave should be held upon foreign soil, In order to frustrate tho machinations of tho civil power, and above all in order to' renew in an efficacious man ner, the periodic protestions against tho status quo and against tho occupation of Homo by the Italian State.' The Encyclical of Popo Leo XIII td tho Portuguese Uishops excites much remark in clerical and political circles. It is a fresh sfgn, and a very evident one, that Leo XIII accentuates mora and more tho Democratic tendency of the Holy See and of the Papacy, in accordance with tho type and in harmony with tho maxims and practice of the Ameri can Church. The passage touching tho National Council proves that tho Papacy tends, with increasing, determined and un varying energy, toward thi concentration of eccfesiostical policy in independent and dis tive action, by breaking definitely with Monarchical methods and by preparing for the gradual transition toward common right, perloct liberty and the independence of tho church with reference to the state. Leo XIII. returns again and again in all his actions to this gcneial idea. Profound in the belief in tho universal triumph of de mocracy, ho desires gradually to fix for the Church its role and its place in tho new kind of civilization and in the more effective plav of popular forces. For this reason Leo XIII. demands union, independent action and the revival of tho ancient National Councils, which, after the fashion of that at Balti more, shall give to Catholicism independ ence, renewed youth and inexhaustible vi tality.

Shortly after C o'clock they Vent down to tho Allegheny river bank at the foot of Forty-ninth street with a small rifle. They selected an object to shoot at across the river and then began firing.
