THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, TUESDAY, MAT' 3, 189a ft LITTLE CONTRARY Pittsburgs "Want Tiyo Games To-Day and tlie Brook- lyns Don't. TIIERE MAY BE TKOUBLE. Manager Bnckenberger Says That Kick Youth? Is on His Side. BAD? STOPS SOME LEAGUE GAMES. Lots of Interesting Horse Racing On East ern and Western Tracks. GENERAL SPORTING N'ETVS OF THE DAT Quite an important difference of opinion arose last evening between the management of the local and Brooklyn clubs. If the in tentions of both parties are carried out to daj, it is lilcly to result in something that will not be creditable to baseball and may lead the Pittsburg public to believe that the leideri ot the BrooU) n Club care nothing at all about the intercuts or con venience of the local baeball patrons. Manaier Buckcnbenjcr notified Manager John Ward last evening that yesterdar's postponed game would be played offto-day making two games for this afternoon. Mr 1MrI Ilat'y Refused to agree to this and emphatically de clared that his team tv ould only report on the grounds this afternoon for the game commencing at i o'clock. The local man agement was just as emphatic and not only notified the 15rookln management of the two gimcs but advertised these games in the morning papers of to-day. 3Ia.iager Iluckcnbergcr not only quoted the new rule on the matter to Man ager Ward, biit added: ''When our team were in Louisville we had a postponed game and Manager Chapman demanded that we play two saraes the next day. I objected, butl e insisted that the rules compelled me to do o. I wiicd President Young, asking his opinion, and he answered telling me that if Manager Chapmin insisted on the two games nu team were compelled to play. Ti'at was definite enough for anything." President Temple, of the local club, is nlo in receipt of a letter from President Youi.g on the matter, and that letter definitely states that if either club insists on plaving offa postponed game of the series being pla)ed the other cluo must consent ISrooWyn's Mile of It. Manager Ward argued that the rule is absurd, and claimed that it led to cheap ball. He further argued that such cheapening ot ball would tend to have outside paid at tractions along.with the ball game to draw crowds. President Brne, of the Brook lyn club, contended that the rule couldn't nVanwhat the Pittsburg officials claimed, ' beeane if it does," he said, "then if we have lour postponed games we will be com pelled to plav tlicmall offthe next day." The rule oi the question is as follows: "Section 4 Each club shall pity twelve or more championship games with every otner club, but atie or draw came or a game prevented bv ram shall be plaved off on the Fi'ne grounds on a saceeeding day within the dates of the amc schedule series, or any succeeding enc, between such clubs." It i tmr to say that the part of the rule referring to "anj succeeding series" leaves the matter vcrv indefinite as far as the claim o; the local club is concerned. lijt.lt 31 ly aioan. That part of the rule may have been put there to mean that if there was no possible chare- to plav oil a postponed game in the series being plav ed, then the game or games could be jila j ed off in any succeeding series If this is not implied in the rule then it would teem that there is nothii'g absolutely compelling the P.rooklvrs to plav off yesterday's game to dav. The leicrence to any succeeding teries was omitted from the rules by mis take when first printed, nrd it was when this omission was not understood that An son made his well-known demand at Cincin nati. Hut there is every reason to hope that Messrs. Bv rue and Ward will consent to play the tw o games to-day for the sake of the local popularity of the game. There is a diflereiice of opinion as to the meaning of the rule, and that very fact ought to prompt the vis'tors to act generously on this occa sion until the rule has been definitely and correctly inttrpreted. If the conflict of oninion is carried loan issue to-day the pub lic will b? the sufferers, and two such piom inent baseball officials a9 Messrs. Byrne and Ward ought to guard against this, particu larly when the issJie is comparatively so frivolous There is no dignity to surrender, and certainly no prestige to lose, but by all means the good will of the public to g-'n- Umpire Gaflncy was spoken to on the matter late last evening and he said: "I am Miipriei! at this. It will no doubt be a test cae. an J I will be on the ground at 2 o'clock. But 1 cannot say what i .vill do. IWween now and then I will study the question up.

THE Brooklyn team Invariably bring rain with them to Pittsburg. Umpire Mahom:y does not seem to hare the strength to last through a season PncsiDEXT B r.BOOn. or the Connty League. Is strongly opposed to tlie localtng of a State League club here. Rain prevented the League game at Cincinnati yesterday, and also the Western League game at Omaha. THE Keystones will play the Tarentnms next Thursday on the Tast End Gyms' grounds. A good game may be expected Burns, of the BrooKlyns, was the first League plaver to be fined this season. Umpire Hurst clapped (10 on him at Philadelphia. THE tfrookl vns, to a man, are fast runners to first bae. Thev give the oppos ng lnfielders very little opportunity to rub the dirt off the ball. THERE was a rumor floatlrg around a few days ago that Chris Von der Ahe hail committed suicide. Cnrls will never commit suicide as long as he has a player left to line and upbraid OVFRln Brooklvn now, when a pitcher will not give big Dan a good ball r. great shout arises from the bleachers Dan's long hits enthuse a crowd mlghtll that Is, the home crowd. Dave Focts Is easily Brooklyn's star pitcher at present. For a man to cease pitching for several seasons and then go into the box again regularly wit!, good effect azainst tho strongest teams ever organized Is remarkable. HonnY Lowe Is Duttlng up a good game and 1s hitting the ball Iherefore Manager selee will keep him on the team for a while at least Ifanv thlng should happen one of the lnfielders, Lowe could come In and stove go to the outfield. "On, wait until tv eolay New York!" said Ward Tuesday. "We'll make those conceited Giants look like a lot of moukevs at Bamum's circus. They're not In it at alt."

According to the Louisville Commercial, there Is not much probability that George Haddock will play with Louisville. The Brookliis have the calf on Haddock's services and It Is gold dollars to red apples that such men as Charley Byrne and Jobr VV ard will not give hint up.
