A LITTLE KICK. Some Hostile Remarks Regarding the Local Football Association Team. To the Sporting Editor of Tlic Dispatch: I see in the coKimns of your paper that the Pittsburg football team Have made arrange ments to play n game with a-Chtcago team for the championship of the East and West. Now, I would like to know how the Pitts burg club can play for the championship of the United States when they are not even champions of Western Pennsylvania. As far as I am aware they have only won two tames this season, the defeated teams being Youngstown and Blooinfield. But if they get the credit of the game played with the McDonalds, which the latter protested and which protest was sustained at the first meeting of the League, that will bring their victorcs up to three, a Now, fhey have been defeated in three separate games, McDon alds beating thorn at 3Iansflelu by two goals to one: McKeesport,-ln a League game, by four goals to one at JicKeesport; Homestead, In a League game, by three goals to one in Allegheny. They have also played two games at 'New- Castle, but both games re. suited in a draw. So it seems strange to me that the Pittsburg team should take in hand to plav for the championship of America while they have such a poor record. I must say I admire their cheek, for in my opinion the team that ought to play the. Chicagos should be the Mew Castie club, is they faul3- won the championship of Western Penim lvania. Yours respecttnlly, Privrosf, Pa., Teb. 6. Fair Plat. t'-Fair Play"' .evidently forgets that for weeks the Pittsbnrg team had a standing challenge to play any team in Pennsylvania. All patrons of tlie game know why the Pitts burs team did not finish the local League season SroRTic Ed. THE BIG HANDICAP. Eastern Opinion as to the Weights Appor tioned to the. Horses. New York, Feb. 6. Special The new pool bills for New Jersey, "the-staying abili ties or Guttenburg, ar.d the weights lor the big handicap have furnished abundant material for discussion in tnrf circles dur ing the week. That Guttenburg is defiant and independent to the last is forcibly shown by Dennis McLaughlin, one of the big four, offering to wager $10,000 that the pool bill will pass the Legislature. Notwith standing McLaughlin's bold statement there is every reason to believe that a bill regu lating the turf will bo passed this winter at Trenton. There are three measures now in band, and any one of whioh would ennblo racing to be carried on at Monmouth, Lin den, Elizabeth and Clifton. There is very little complaint heard over the adjustment of the weights of the Brook lyn and Suburban handicaps Green 11. Mor ris says tnat he Is satisfied with the weights civen to Strathnieath, Judge 3Iorrow and Cella. Mr. 3Iorris says that if any 5-year-old everwlns a Submbaii it will be Lamplighter, whoso impost i but 100 pounds. In Mr. Morris' opinion I amjillghter will beat His Highness over a uu.auceof ground when ever they meet. Nearly every manyoumcot has a fond thiny nic.knd out to carry his tnoney in the Brookiy or Suburban, and dur ing a nve-minute waiK on uroauway oneaay this week the writer met men who were go ing to play Longstreet, Tenny, Bermuda, La Tosca, Clarendon and Pessai-a". Each thought he bad the winner. Banquet, at 110 pounds, has also many lollowers for the Brooklyn. WILL GO SOTJIE. The Giants to Visit Richmond and Flay a Tew Practicn Games. New York, Feb. 6. Special. Tho New York Ba-eball Club has leased the ball giound at Richmond, Va., from March CO to SO. The Giants will report there and get into trim for the League season. They will open tho local exhibition series in this city on March 31 with the time-honored Jaspers of Manhattan College, JIanager Powers said yesterday that in all probability "Long John" Reilly will be en caged by tho Now York club to play first base, as "Buck" Ewing thinks he can catch behind the bat all right. This makes It ap pear that the magnates have decided not to sign "Mike" Kelly, which is regarded as a "botch" bj tho cranks. Ah a well-known ball man said yesterdajr: "Tney don't want a heavy hitter like Kelly because his terms are a little high, but they aie willing to sign Iteilly, who can't hit a balloon, because he will accept almost anything to remain in the League. Keilly can't begin to fill Connor's shoes." President Byrne received woitl from John Ward yesterday that he would arrive in this city from Florida on Tuesday next, when tho w ork ol signing the new Brooklyn team will begin. "Sam" Trott, of Baltimore, who used to be manager of the Newark baseball team, now defunct, has been trying for some time to organize a new team there. He has been able to secure promises of more than $2,000 of the $5,000 necessary to establish it, and lias abandoned the attempt. The, Local Football Flayers. The members of the Pittsburg Football (Association) team arc in strict training for the big Chicago versus Pittsburg match on Washington's Birthday. It is recognized that this is the most important match yet played by the local team, and no stone will be left unturned by the players to get In the best possible condition. The match against the McKeesports next Saturday at the East End Gym's ground will be a great trial game inasmuch as the McKeesports only got beaten by one point for the local champion ship trophy, and they promise to give tho Pittsburgs a tough tussle. A big crowd of Chicagoans will accompany their vcham pions.who will meet with'a hearty reception on their visit here. The Beaver Gun Shooters.

Had the Court Intifnafed a Desire Would Hare Betraeted It, He NEWSY NOTES FROM NEARBY TOWNS ISPICtAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Beaver Falls, Feb. 6. From the Beaver jail, where he is serving his sen tence for libelling Senator Quay, Editor John Mellon, of the Beaver Star, in his paper, to-night publishes a statement in reference to his connection with the libel suit. -He says that U has -been his purpose to make such "' statement ever since the jury brought in its verdict of guilty, but delayed it in accordance rwith the wishes, of his friends, who argued 'that it could not operate one way 'or the other upon the sentence and would incur the enmity instead of com mand the respect of the Judge. He says the Court intimated in no way, either di rectly or indirectly,- that it wished for a re traction, as it would have cheerfully been givetL He says that when asked ,to s'tand up for sentence he was not even given a chance with the ordinary criminal, to say why sentence should not be passed. . The statement further relates the circum stances that induced him to publish the li belous matter and says that he was prom ised and "fully expected important testi mony at the trial from State Chairman Kerr nnd Hon. W. U. Heusel, but at the last mo ment they went back on him. This is to ac count for the continued attacks on Senator Quay, published in the Star, even up to the day before tho trial. He says: "Personally I bear no enmity to Mr. Quay. 1 never'met him, personally, but were he or his family in need I Woujd be friend them as readily as any family in Beaver. Politically I consider him an enemy, and while he pursues the methods that have characterized His DOlitical life during the past ten years, I shall consider him the enemy of pure politics and honest government." Ho fully exonerates Mr. Quay from all connection with the JBardsley steal, and condemns the way the jury was selected as an unfair, unparalled and intamous prac tice. He savs with an Impartial non partisan Jury he believes be would have been ac quitted. He, is not tho least grieved that Mr. Quay has been-found innocent ot the clmrges, and rejoices with Mr. Quay's family that the accusation was a falsu one. He closes by saying: "Some of my warmest friends havo ad vised me against making such -a statement as this, but right is right and to tell tho truth is alwavs In order. True Democracy should never" countenance an untruth or a coward." AH OLD CLAIM ESVIVED. The Keno Heirs Think They Will Get Pat terson Heights by an Ancient Patent. Bkayer Falls, Feb. 6. A long missing lancLpatent has been found. Evan Iteno, of Denver, claims, in behairor himself and mother, now or Denver, but formerly living at Rochester, over 172 acres of Patterson's Heights. The land in question is' regarded as very valuable and is yearly becoming more so. Its piecise location In what Is known ns Patterson's Heights cannot be fixed ithnut a new survey, but it is known that a portion ot it is built upon, and tho remainder is laid off in town lots. The estimated value of the tract ir between 75,0'JO and $100,000. The heirs of James Patterson and the occupants ot tho land in dispute, will stoutly resist any attempt made to dispossess them and a fierce legal battle is anticipated. Mr. Reno has woiked up tne case so quietly and secretly that it was not until a very few days ago that anyone beside himself and the other heiis knew anything or his purpose or progress.

Carter's apology for preventing his daughter from coming was ncccnted, and he was discharged with a few -words of cen sure. The Buffalo-Erie Poisoning Case. Erie, Feb. 6. Special.
