Peter Priddy States That He Is Willing to Bun Courtnej. GEXEEAL SPORTLXG NEWS OP THE DAI The East End Gyms will have another try at the local League sluggers to-day if all goes well, and in view of the fact that the Gyms made such a hot argument on Satur day last there will likely be a good attend ance this afternoon at Exposition Park. It is surprising to find so large a number of cranks who have great faith in the County Ieasjne champions, but the latter may get a trouncing to-day. The two teams will be as follows: Pittsbuis. Position. East End. Cnmp Pitcher Grmiliert. Kurlo Catoher. Uenrer. Beckley First F. Barr. Hlerbaucr...... Second Thompson. Stiugart ...Short -Canro. Farrell Third C. AdUy. Smith Lort D. Iiarr. llanlon Center Haller. Swartwood ... Right W. Addy. Manager Buckenberger intends to keep Camp in during the entire game and Camp is willing to have all the preliminary work lie can get The letting order of the Pitts burgs will be as follows: Hanlon, Bier bauer, Swnrtwood, Farrell, Beckley, Shu part, Smith, Earle and Camp. So far the club officials are delighted at the good at tendance at the exhibition games and they think that it augurs well for a good seasoril The management of the club stated yes terdar that there is no intention to release Corkhill until lie has had a good trial. His good fielding abilities are admitted, but it is feared that he will not be strong enough in batting. It has also been decided to open the championship season at Cincinnati with Baldwin and Miller as the Pittsburg bat tery. Mark stated yesterday that his arm has" not bothered him in the least so far thU year, and he expects to be in first class trim to meet the Beds. The local officials do not feel inclined to talk much about the "combine" in the League, but nobody here seems willing to deny that some sort of "clijjue" is in ex istence, and that Pittsburg is on the out side of it.

I have boxed with him and know that he has been the greatest man in the woild. He is a wonderful man jet, but then there are other things to be l.iken into consideration. I am 6 feet lJCinc'ies in height, and when I meet SuIII au Kill weigh 190. I have been acknowl edged the most clever heavy-weight In the world. Sullivan weighs 223, is 5 feet 10K indie's in hclzht and has 25 pounds of fat on liN bodj tint he cannot get rid of. To sum up. Iaintallrrthanhols.havealongerreach, am more scientific and quicker. Heia much harder hitter than I nm, and that no one can deny. The question then is can I keep out reach of his terrible blows Icng enongiii "When Sullivan met 'Paddy' Evan he only weighed 1SS, and no one ever thought that any living man could whip It) an. Ko one thinks that Sullivan can be whipped. People teem to think that he can go on with his dis sipation foi ever and not waste his strength, mid that there aic no strong young men grow ing up. I believe that I can w hip Sulli van. So one but Sullivan can make me be lieve othei w ie. He w ill have to do so inside of the ropes. If I did not believe that I can whip him, I would never meet him under the condition"! that I am to. I will leturn to New York in June and begin training at As liury Park on .Tune 10.

AN AWFUL SUSPICION That Slippery Hoonshiners Have Taken the Posse Prisoners. OFTEN SEEN WHEN NOT WANTED. Senator Osbourn Trying Hard to Prove Cruelty at Huntingdon. KEWST K0TES FROM NEARBY TOWNS ruranAi, telegram to the DISPATCH.! Somerset, April 5. The small party who lett Rockwood last night for the moon-' shine district have not yet returned or been heard from. The party was composed of Justice of the Peace Gildner, his brother, Constable Frederick Dupont and Special Revenue Agent Fisher. They were accompanied by a mountaineer who claimed that he would conduct them to the place where Jliller and Pritts were concealed, and went armed with Winchester rifles and warrants for the arrest of Miller, Pritts and a half dozen of their accomplices. It is generally believed here this evening that this gallant little party has been taken Into camp by the murderers and their friends, and that, as a penaltv for their rash ness, they will ho held piisoners in ono of the moonshine caves for a few days, when they will be conducted to safety outsido of tho moonshine district, and given their liberty. Monday afternoon a venturesome pho tographer went about through the mount ain taking photographs of the scene of the murder, the Pletcher shanty, the various caves and other objects of Interest. About 3 o'clock he drew up in front of BUI Miller's house and asked Mis. Miller If she had any objections to his taking a photograph of the house. She replied that she had not, and that she and the chlldi en would stand on tho notch. The nhoto.rru.nher placed his camera in position and w.is just about to tase cue pnotograpn oi hiu iwiipc, w ucu, iu his consternation, the redoubtable Bill Mil ler, the murderer of old man Hochstetler and tho leader of the moonshine aggrega tion, stepped out or the kitchen door and Joined the little party on the porch, with the remark: "If thei o is a picture to be taken, what's the matter with mv beimr in It?" The photographer succeded in getting a fairly good picture of the little group. The negative was shown Tue Dispatch corre spondent this evening. Bill is iuhisshirt sleeve and bareheaded, with a belt around his waist, from which dangles a brace oi re volvers. He is a middle-aged man, with a long, ragged "beard and heavy, bi-shy eye brows. From the picture I would judge that he is about 5 feet 7 inches high and weighs about 170 pounds. A dispatch fiomTient says: "The mur derers of Hoehs'etler encamped In a large barn about two miles south of where the crime was committed lat night, and were passed by a squad of the Sheriff's posse."

BEHATOB OBBOTBH'B EFF0BT8. By Means or Boy Witnesses He Does His Best to Prove Cruelty at Huntingdon. Philadelphia, Maroh S. The State Board of Charities to-day continued Its investiga- .tlonof charges of cruelty against the man agement of the Huntingdon Reformatory. The sworn statement of Henry Albertus, an inmate, was offered in evidence to refute statements made by Senator Osboum's wit nesses. Albertus states that he went to some of the boys and promised to have them re leased In a few days if they told him all the truth. Senator Osbourn characterized this as an outrageous statement and unworthy of belief. The statement was withdrawn In order to send for the boy. The testimony of the morning was chiefly by Senator Osbourn, in showing that in mates of the institution who have died have been ill-tieated previous to their death by means or solitary confinement and the ball and chain. Philip 11. Evans, who died of consumption one month after release, had been subjected to this tteatmont, according to the story ho told before his death. An other lad, John McGinnis, who died In tho reformatory of consumption, had escaped some time before, and on hisN return was obliged to wear a ball and ctiain.whioh were produced.

He said that Harry Anderson had been placed in solitary connnement lor over three montns, anu that when he came out he hardly knew him, he was so thin and wasted. He said he also knew W. F.

Senator Osbourn stated that ho Introduced this testimony as against that of Superintendent Patton, who testified at a previous meeting that the average time for solitary confinement was from 6 to 18 davs. Thomas Dickerson, a brother ot the dead bov.testifledthat ho went to Huntingdon on thc'l2th of March to bring William home. William told him then that Deputy Superintendent Smith had called him stupid und had kioked him in the ribs. The fare attracted Thomas' attention, and he said to his brother. "Do you always have as good grub as thist" In reply William said they did. not, but a display was being made for his beneflt, as the officials knew of his coming. He brought his bi other home with him and he died four days later. Dr. Mirier, attending physician at the reformatory, here Bald that boys who were sick were allowed to have what they wished to cat. Deputy Superintendent Smith's testimony was mainly In rebuttal and denial of cruel ties. He instanced the caso of the boy Ward. He said this boy, when he came to the institution, boasted that lie had "done up" the Warden of the Madison peniton tiary.where he had served a sentenee.and he proposed to do the same to the keepers at Huntingdon.

In reply to criticisms made on the police department, as at present organized, Chief Brown last night said: We always expect criticism and It does us good. As tor the falling off In receipts that is the natural result of good order, for when there Is good order there are few arrests and few flues. This 13 bad for the city treasury but good lor the city, and It pleases the tax payers more to have a quiet, orderly city than big receipts and lack of active police supei vision. I claim Pittsburg the best police guarded city in the country. As for our officers attending theaters, they aro expected to drop into 'all places of amusement occasionally in their duty of preserving order, though or course there is a limit. All but twoof our front office men go on duty at 7 a.m. and are through active duty by 8 r. m., though subject to any call at all times. They have as much right to attend theaters at night as other people. The speak-easy complaint Is a periodical one. We want to suppress them all, and if we tail it is because I cm nap aware of their existence. I will permit no favoritism in this matter, and will close them up as fast as I hear of them. Going to Inspect'the South. Thursday, April 13, at 8 a. m., from 50 to 75 Pittsburg business men will leave via the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad for Sylacau?a, Ala., to inspect its resources. The party will stop at Washington several hours, and while there will be entertained by Hon. "W. H. Forney and other Alabama Congressmen.
