The Tract at Terre Haute Fully Two Seconds Slow, and the Conditions All in Hal's Favor. OTHER ETEXTS OX THE- SAME BOURSE. JI"nlars, the Eagle MMril, 1'qnals the Record 2-Tear-01KOlJ.de ky Sunol. for Tr.Kitr; Haute, Is:d., Oct. 7. A misty morning and a chilly ntorthw est i ind stood in the way of an attendance in keeping with the high character of the second day's programme. Xot withstanding these un favorahle conditions, nJxmt 6,900 people were on the grounds when the unfinished match pace was called. Previous to the first heat pools sold: Hal Pointer, 550; IHrect, ?2."i. with plenty of takers for both end'. Two pools of 2,000 to $950 each were sold, Andy "Welch taking the long; end and J. Murphv, of Chicao, the short. T'lilly SfiO.WO ncirt into the hot before the bell tapped. The word was given first time down, Pointer having a little the best of it. Starr having noticed for the nord. Gees followed his tactics of vesierdav and allowed no. loitering by the way. The lirt quarter-pole was passed in 33 s-eeonds; no change ol position to the half in 2:05'.,: tl.e iloun-htll eighth the pace is quickened, and 15 seconds marks the rate; Jo the three-quarters in 1 :37, and Starr be ginv to ply the whip. THE .VT.ALLIOX IS OA3IU. Tlic Stallion gamely answers the call and they turn into the stretch at a terrible burst, Hal Pointer nnswering easily every ellbrt of Direct. The- black stallion is game, but nature cannot sUcal the clip. They go under the wire witn icer-. hau turned, watching Direct. o jools were sold on the lat heat. Tlie -onclusion has forced itself that Pointer is uuU-atahle. At the second score when they got the word, Pointer, nith his ears l.-iici liack, is the personification of dc'l'rmination. Geers carries I )irec: wide at tire turns and gives him a Ion mile, at the quarter in 33'4 ecomts. Direct is a length back, Mnrr evi dently holding back forab'iish. The a me position ii maintained to t.ie half in 1:07, and the three-quarter, in 1.30. Starr now rallies the black horse with the skill ofa maMcr reinsnum. He is on the Pointer's wheel at the turn for home. At the dis tance Direct ialtcr but Starr gathers him up, and with a great drive tries in sheer desperation for the heat. It is no use. Pointer has -peed and endurance to spare. The track is judged by experts to be fully two seconds slow. THK OTiir.i: events. Special niatcli, pace, i,iM Hal Pointer, br. R 2 111 Direct, Mk.

Manager McGuunigle left for the East last evening and will be out of the city for two or three weeks probably. He will en deavor to sign two or three new players and then visit his home at Brockton. He de clined to say what particular players he is after, but it is safe to say that he desires two outfielders and a third baseman this trip. He has several outfielders in view good enough in his estimation to fill the bill if thej- can be secured. It is not unlikely that he may have a talk with Joe Mulvey and Shindle, the third basemen. The man ager would like to have Mulvey and he will likely be signed if he can be secured. Shin dle is willinc to come here, but is sick at present. It may be a day or two before any new pitchers are signed, but Manager Mc Gunnigle expects to have two good ones be fore long to help Baldwin and Galvin. At present the Manager is disposed to only sign one good pitcher in audition to the present force and keep Maul as the extra man. Begarding the team as a whole, Manager McGnnnigle states that neither himself nor anybody else knows anything about how the team will be made up next season. He intends to have the best nine in the field he can get, no matter who is pleased or who is offended. The best players will be used and the inferior ones will not be wanted. That will be the programme of the manager at all hazards. Races at the Akron Fair. Akron-, Oct. 7. Special. The first of the series of races at the Summit county fair occurred to-day.

Hart In the Windy City Making Some Itig Itlufls. Chicago, Oct. 7. Ex-President Spalding sat in his private office wrapped in a cloak of moody silence. During these troublesome days one has no chance to reach Mr. Spald ing's innermost thoughts on baseball. He declares that he is out of the mess and will remain so. The League cannot afford to overlook President Hart's protest, and a meeting will probably be called within the week to take action. The annual League meeting is too far off. Prompt action is necessary. President Hart is in town again. This statement may seem useless in "the face of the fact that President Hart belongs here. But lovers of the .National game may prick up their cars and become interested when it is understood that President Jim of the local club is not meant, but Julian B., who presides over the destinies of that team in the Hub that plays under the auspices of the American Association. Mr. Hart's mission is in regard to placing an Associa tion club here next year, and pending such action picking up such of Uncle Adrian's hired men that he may find willing to sever their connection with the League and go into that godless bodv that Boston's Hart represents. Ad Gumbert is his particular object just now, and before the week is out he may secure the services of the Chicago pitcher. The other players will be proacned in turn. ap- WILL STJPP0BT NIHICS. President O'Seil Wants William A. to Ho President or the Rail Club. Relative to the presidency of the local ball club President" J. P. O'Neil made a very significant statement yesterday after noon. He said: "1 am for V. A. iinick for president of our club for next year. He is the only man canable of attending to the duties of the oflice after I leave it. I have had a talk with Mr. Ximick on the matter and I have assured him that if hewill accept the office he can have it and that I will assist him in every way by attending meetings with him and suchlike; in short, I will stand by him at all stages. He is now considering the matter and will decide in a day or two. He will do well to run for the place, and if he does he will get it" Judging from present indications it looks as if Mr. Niniick will again be president of the local ball team. If he makes up his mind to contest for the office he will get it. A Buslness-I.Iko Challenge.

All Have Lost Money. The tenth session of the American Asso ciation has been far from a profitable one. In fact it has been the most unsuccessful one that the organization has ever known. All of the clubs have lost money, with the possible exception of Boston, and the "Beaneaters" have not realized a gold mine on their six months' work. St. Louis will drop about 1,500 and Columbus will find a deficit of about 54,000 when they examine the books. Baltimore will come" out very near even, but the Athletics will be about 51,000 short. Milwaukee has made money in the Association, but they dropped sev eral thousand dollars in the Western Asso ciation. The Louisvilles will lose some where near 51,000 on the season, and the Wnshingtons will do the same. Louisville Times. Carey Retires. Pkixcetox, Oct. 7. Luther H. Carey, class of 'D3 of Princeton, the well-known sprinter, has retired from the track, and will not return to Princeton this year. Mr. Carey is engaged, in business in Chicago.

Another party is after Morrissev, of Mc Keesport. II. Field left the following challenge at this office last evening: "If Morrissev, of Mclveesport, wants a foot race I will match a youth only 17 years old to run him 100 yards, providing the youth gets four yards start.

DISPATCH, THURSDAY, AETER MANY TEAES. An Orphan Brother and Sister Sepa rated in Early Childhood FIND BACH OTHER ONCE AGAIN. A Brave Actress Saves Eer Own Life Without Stopping Her Part. MINOR NEWS FROM THE THREE STATES rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. lintrwNSViLi,E, Oct 7. After 16 years, Robert and Etta Durrin, brother and sister, have been strangely reunited. In 1875 the children lived with their parents near Cleve land, and when the boy was 10 nnd the girl 4 years of age both their parents died, leav ing them homeless. Friends placed them in the Industrial Home in Cleveland, the boy soon after being adopted by a resident of Farmington, O., while the girl found a home with .Robert B. McCracken, then liv ing at Cortland, O. They afterward moved to this place, bringing with them the little Durrin girl. The brother had never forgotten his sole relative, and when he grew up he made every attempt to locate her, but in vain, and after spending years in the seardi, he finally gave her up as dead. Five years ago the girl, who had developed into a lovely young woman, was married to C. L. Snowden, of Brownsville, a prominent busi ness man. After the departure of their adopted daughter, Mr. and Mrs. McCracken became lonely and went to the Cleveland Home, which they had visited 10 years ago, in order to adopt another child. While there they incidentally mentioned the fact of their adopted daughter's marriage, and that her name was Etta Durrin. The Superintend ent of the home then remembered of the years of search spent by Robert, and he was notified by telegram that a clew to his sister had turned up. The result was that Robert Dnrrin ar rived in Brownsville yesterday and was amazed and delighted to find that his baby sister of 4 years had grown into a handsome woman, while on her part, Mrs. Snowden, or Etta Durrin, wept with joy over the dis covery of a brother whom she had always mourned as lost, now a prominent young business man of Cleveland. A Fight For Life With a Mastiff: Parkeksburg, "W. Va., Oct. 7. Spe cial.'

The dog soon rallied and made a dart at Mr. Oliver, who grasped him by the throat and threw him down a declivity. Another struggle occurred, dur ing which Mr. Oliver was hadly bitten, but he plunged the knife into the dog's heart and the animal fell over dead just as the old man was about to succumb. A Bailroad War at Mahonington. Xew Castle, Oct. 7. Special. Depnty Sheriff Douds this evening served an in junction on the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railroad to restrain it from occupying one of the principal streets of Mahonington. The railroad desires to fill the street with a double track, and had a gang of men at work when the Sheriff interfered. Exciting times had been witnessed there all day, as a large number of prominent citizens had held the disputed ground until the arrival of the officers. For a time it looked as if a col lision between the railroaders and citizens was imminent, but after the arrival of the Sheriff quiet prevailed, and the good people of the burg will sleep for one night, at least, without the fear of being stolen bodily by the corporation. New Coal X.nnds to Do Opened. McKEnsi'ORT, Oct. 7. Special. Two branch line railroads are to be built from Jeannette to Sewickley, just above Suter ville, on the line of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.

The surveys have been made for both of these roads and many rights of way have been bought. The idea is to open undeveloped coal lands. All the farms through which the lines will pass are underlaid with coal. The Y. M. C. A. Secretaries Adjourn. Oil City, Oct. 7. Special. The annual conference of the Pennsylvania Association of General Secretaries of the Y. M. C A. closed to-night with an open meeting at the First Presbyterian Church.

It sells for 6o cents per pound, which is cheap for pure tea (being of double strength), but which is very dear for kinds like these: When you first ask for He-No, you will more than likely have first to decline the other ordinary kinds.
