EAST AGIST WEST,
Some Exciting Ball Games
Are Expected to Take
Place To-Day.
THE IOUISYILLE CONTEST.
A Complete Shaking Up Among the
Baltimore Ball Team.
TAN HALTEEN STEPS DOWN.
Trouble That Max Mar the County League
OpenircTo-JIorroir.
GENERAL SPORTJKG KEWS OP TIIE DAT
To-day's League baseball games through
out the country will be just as interesting
to the cranks as any that have taken place
this season. The Eastern teams will face
those of the "West, and the public will soon
get some kind of practical idea regarding
the comparative merits of the two sections.
So far this season there has been considera
ble controversy on the matter. Some very
good authorities claim that the "Western
teams as a whole are better than their East
ern rhals, while just as many people, and
probably more, argue the contrary.
Almost every club has been so much
changed since last season that little idea
has so far been gained as to the comparative
strength of East and "West. For instance,
the Brooklyns are apparently stronger than
last year, and so are the Louisvilles. but no
proof has been given as to which team has
been strengthened most. And so it goes
through the entire list
Haven't Got a Cinch.
At first sight it would appear as if the
Eastern teams would have the better of the
argument to-day, but after a little careful
consideration the chances of the East do
not look so very great. One of the most
interesting games of the six to-day will be
that between the Louisville and Brooklyn
teams. It is their first meeting this season,
and it is singular to note that they are tied
for second place. This means that if ever
two teams worked for victory, the teams
in question will do so to-day. It is likely
that Jones will pitch for tlie Louisvilles,
and if he docs, and pitches as deliberately
and effectively as he did here, he is very
likely to be a winner. It is safe to say that
thousands of dollars will be bet on that
game to-day, and it looks a very even thing,
as both teams have been playing a strong
game.
Looks Llk: a Certainty.
Boston faces St Louis, which will not be
a erv interesting game, because of the poor
showing of the Browns recently.
Anson's colts may take it into their heads
and give the Phillies a sound beating, and
the Cie elands have quite a good chance to
defeat the Xew Yorks. The Cincinnati
Beds arc sure to be favorites over the AVash-
ingtons, and the local team are capable oi
defeating the Baltimores, if they play up to
their best form.
It is quite a while since the Orioles were
here, and since they were here there have
been very many changes among them.
Barnie is no longer with them, and that
sounds strange, but there are a lot of good
people among them. Reports from the
East state that they are a much batter team
than what their record so far makes them
out to be. If that is true they are quite
liable to show themselves at their best here.
Yesterday Manager Buckenberger gave
his men quite a good drilling and talking to
regarding team work. It was reported that
a certain player had been fined for his short
comings. Bo Mean? Business.
At any rate, Manager Buckenberger
means to have the team do as he wants them
to do, and its quite fair to say that the
players are quite willing to do all they can
da Some ot them may have overlooked a
little matter or two, hut the very iact of
their doing so may enable them to guard
acainst similar errors in future. It is not
lair for the public or any part of it to set
up a whine merely because the team have
lost two games out of six played on the
home grounds.
Both players and officials of the local
club were exceedingly amused yesterdav to
learn the report that Billy Barnie had been
signed to manage the local team. It is
scarcely neccssarv to say that the report is
as fale as would bs the report that Man
ager Buckenburger was going to emigrate
to tht moon. There is absolutely no truth
in the report whatever, nor is there the re
motest intention on the part of the local
director to dispense with Manager Bucken
berger. He is filling the bill admirably,
and the directors are very proud ot him.
This statement is entirely official on the
matter.
YAH HALTEEN DESIGNS.
Ho Is Tired ofManagincthe Baltimores and
John lYalz Steps In.
Baltimokz, April 25. Special. There 'has
been a mighty shaking up In the Baltimore
club. VanHaltren has reslsned the man
agement and Vice President Waltz will en
deavor to do the trick. Waltz lias not yet
had any experience in this line, hut he Is
willing to learn. VanHaltren will lemain
captain ex-ofllcio, wifli'Shoch as an under
study. Sleepy Bill Johnson obtained his
walking papers to-day.
Billy Barnie returned from Philadelphia
to-dar. after an unsuccessful attempt to
effect a settlement with the Wastneis' at.
torneys. He is inad clean through over the
manner he has been ticated, and openlv de
nounces the Wagners as bunko sharps. He
says tlicy have done him out of S2i0bv fixing
a clause in his contract. AH their charges
he denounces as false, and claims that they
owe not only him hut other ballplayers, in
cluding Miko Griffin, for services. Barnie
says he has three offers now under consider
ation. IfVon derllorst had been wise lie
could have made Rirnie his manager. Ho is
regarded here as the missing link.
CHICAGO GETTING IN LINE.
A recline Favorable Toirard Sunday Ball
Growinc In the Windy City.
Chicago, April 2S. Sunday League games
are a ChicaRO possibility. Public sentiment
seems tondlng in that direction. When tho
season opened the only ton ns that wanted
Sunday games were St. Louis, Baltimore,
Washington, Louisville and Cincinnati.
Cleveland, which came out flat-tooted
acainst playing Sunday sames, cither at
home or abroad, has changed its mind. A.
G. Spalding, while at the hcador the Chicago
club, was unalterably opposed to Sunday
contests. He could seo no piiticular harm,
but refused to sanction the custom. How
ever, President Hart Is in favor of them,
and says: "If not this year then next the
question must be settled. If the World's
Pair is open on Sundays we w ill be com
pelled to, and if the World's Fair remains
closed it will become a necessity. Amuse
ment must bo provided for the visitors. The
theaters cannot accommodate all, and there
Is a constantly giowmg demand for Sunday
games."

AMATEURS IN TROUBLE.
The County Leagues Starting Out Under n
Cloud Manager Thompson, of the Cli
max Tram, Tails to Post a Forfeit In
a Quandary.
Tho County Loagus opons to-morrow, but
lr the season throughout Is no hotter than
tne prospects for the opening, the league
will come out rather disngured. While throo
games ara scheduled, It is probable that
there will be but two. Manager Thompson,
of the Climax team of Allegheny, is the
prime cause of the disfigurement or the
league's schedule, ho having been a dis
senter ever since his admission to the
league. Ever since ho has secured all for
which he made claims, he has failed to com
ply with the rule or placing a $50 forfeit with
the Secretary.
At a meeting held Monday evening, the
Wilkingburg team promised to release
Johnston, a player claimed by Manager
Thonioson, provided ho deposited his forfeit
or 550 beforo Saturday. Thompson agreed
to this and said as he now had all he wanted
ho would make his deposit on Tuesday. He
failed to see Secretary Miller that day or at
any time since. As a result the same sched
uled between Mansfield and Climax Satur
day can not be official and will not be
reckoned In making up the club averages.
Inasmuch as Manager Thompson has so
far lailed to post his forfeit the Wllkins
burgs still hold Catcher Johnson's contract,
and unless tho Climax man conies up with
tne casn lie wilt play witn tnat team.
Another obstacle that has arisen in the
wav of tho game scheduled between the
Climax and Mansfield teams is the want of
a ball park. The qamo is announced for
ltecrcation Park, but that is closed against
them, as the Allegheny Athletic Association
will oc;npy its park every Saturday through
out the season, and will not allow anything
so extensive as a ball gnmo on that day.
Manager Thompson asked for tho park some
time ago, but was referred to the secretary
of the association. Nothing further was
done, but it would be of no use, as the park
will positively not be let for Saturday ball
games.
All the other teams in the County League
aio well prepared for the season, and will
furnish some excellent baseball. It is a
pity tho league should meet with such ob
stacles at the inauguration of the season.
Tho Wilkinsburg giounds will soon bo
ready for business. The grandstand has
been erected, the fence is being built and
the giounds rolled. Tho boys havealieady
begun practice on tho grounds The new
grauustaud will scat S00 people and the
bleachers about 0O. The Wilkinsburgs
play tho champion East End Gym club on
the lattcr's siounds to-morrow. Wllklns
bum will be ronresented bv tho following
tu'im: Gardner, Ditcher; Smlnk, catcher;
Kulin, fiisc base; Swift, second base. Stem,
third base; Shumachr, shortstop; Becker,
risht field: Eajrye, middle field: Kcarns, left
field.
England Pitched Well.
AlLiAjtCE, April 23. Special. The base
ball season opened In this city to-day with
the Taientuui, Pa., team. A large crowd
was in attendance and up to the fifth Inning
the game was close and excitlnz. After
that the home team solved Hemphill's
curves and the game closed with the score
oi 11 to I in favor of Alliance. England, the
one-armed pitcher of the Alliance team,
pitched phenomenal ball, but three hits be
ing made off his delivery. Base hits Alli

CLOSE AT MEMPHIS.
An Excellent Spring Meeting Brought to a
Finish In Good Style.
Memphis, April 29. A heavy rain this
morning and showers at intervals during

ISPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
Johnstown, April 2a Elmer Bruner,
who is confined in the Ebeaiburg fall under
sentence of death for tho murder of old man
Bees, made an attempt at suicide to-day.
He tied a rope about nine feet long to the
bars in his cell, and was adjusting the
noose when detected by Warden Young.
Bruner has been very gloomy of late, and
it is believed the stories regarding hit
mother's critical condition, as published
this morning, made him despondent, and
caused the rash act.
He says he carried the ropo with him
ever since he was arrested. This story is
not believed, and It is thought it was
smuggled in to him by someone within the
past few days. A close watch will here
after be kept on him.

Continued From First Jbve. J
a detailed sunnort ot the statement ot 301
ler ts to D. H. Hostetter, and rays that
Case, the Secretary of the company, acted in
Hontetter's interest.
President Gllmbr says that the checks of
Du Puy were indorsed by him inadvertent
ly as an officer of the company, as ther be
longed to Miller who had, as an individual,
sold the stock to Du Puy. It is also said
by Mr. Gilmor that Miller paM him 510,000
due him out of one of the $30,000. checks.
Some Big Notes Were Discounted.
Thomas B. Ben, the broker, said he dis
counted notes of Miller, indorsed by Mar
vin Scaife, with Terminal stock and Dscr
Creek and Maryland Central bonds as col
lateral, to the extent of 98,000 in two
notes. These notes were rediscounted by
D. H. Hostetter. who took as scouritv $100.-
000 Deer Creek bonds, 530,000 Maryland
Central bonds and 2,000 shares of Terminal
stock. Mr. Kea also sold ?55,000 Deer U
Creek bonds to Hostetter for ?50,000. The
notes were paid, but Hostetter retained the
collateral on a private agreement with Mil
ler. "Wlnfield J. Taylor, tho trustee, says he
consented to aot as trustee in November,
1890, The deed of trust was careiully drawn
by the best legal talent. He says it was
not intended to dlssolvo the corporation or
wipe it out. Tho action of the directors
was sanctioned by a majority or stockhold
ers and creditors. J. G. Case,, the Secre
tary of the company, refused to turn over
the books and accounts. The trustee found
that the company owned property on North
avenue and Oak street, 2,100 shares of
Maryland Central Eailroad nnd 4,000 shares
of Deer Creek and Susquehanna Bailroad
Company, and agreement between the com
pany and John Henry Miller for the deliv
ery of certain property when the company
gave Miller in return more of its stock.
The trustee, through the Circuit Court,
released the Miller agreements and gave
him the Maryland Central and Deer Creek
and Susquehanna stock, getting in return
his interest in 11,000 shares of the Terminal
Company. The realty was sold to Thomas
H. Blick ior 5121,012 33, ot which 533,012 33
was in money and the balance in mortgages
and ground rents assumed by Blick. The
trustee says the Transportation and Term
inal Company was insolvent, and only paid
75 cents on the dollar on the claims hied.
The trustee swears he does not believe the
Terminal Company ever was entitled to any
interest in the Belt road, the Maryland
Construction Company, nor at the time of
the assignment did it have any title to the
Penn Anthracite Coal Company stock. He
says he is willing to do his duty, if it can be
shown he has acted wrongly, and he adds
that he expected to be a co-plaintifl instead
of a co-dctendant in this suit.
Mr. Samuel Bea and Secretary Case have
also given evidence. The latter says that
to the best of his knowledge the books oi
the company do not show that either John
Gill, Jame's Sloan, George S. Brown, J.
Swan Prick, George M. Jewett,, T. M.
Logan or Samuel Thomas were ever stock
holders in the Transportation and Terminal
Company or directors of the company, and
that he knows of no meetings of tho com
pany even for organization.
