GEXERAL SPORTING NEWS OP 1HE DAT
Isn't it exciting and delightful io win a
neck-and-neck contest on the post? To be
sure it is and that's
just how our slug
gers won a came
from the Cincin
nati Reds yester
day afternoon at
Exposition Park.
Those who did not
see the game lost
lots of fun, and one
of the best oppor
tunities in the
world to test their
lung power. To
say that the crowd
yelled and gave
vent to Indian war
whoops is only a
very mild way of explaining the fact There
were onlv about 1,000 people present owing
to the bad weather, but they jumped and
veiled and yelled and jumped like as many
wild men "and women, when real tall and
unadulterated slugging won the game in its
very last stage.
The Jonrney Was a Tonsil One
And what a tough and unlucky jonrney
it was to that last stage. The fates were so
terribly against our home representatives
that almost everybody had given the re
motest hope of victory up. It nobody
say there is no luck in bascbalL The woods
were full of it yesterday, and it was
stromrlv acainst the home team. They
fought against it like demons particularly
Baldwin, and too much credit cannot be
accorded them for their pluck. The most
astonishing reverses met them so often that
if they had "fallen to pieces" there could
have been an excuse for it. Surely,
there will be a few kind words for them
this morning.
The contest was certainly one of the most
exciting that has been played in the city.
I: was a struggle between Baldwin and
Chamberlain, and the former carried oil the
laurels in great style He pitched one of
the bet games een on the home grounds,
a'id without donbt displayed remarkable
nerve. Had he not, the jig would have been
up early in the contest.
Ono of the Best of rilchar.
Mark is a great pitcher, indeed, and those
who have claimed that he is not must now
admit the iact. The team can play ball,
nnd the wav in which they let loose on
i:iton Chamberlain in that ninth inning
gave cverybodv who saw them to under
stand that the- are not misnomers in the
race.
Just to show what a hard light it was
against hard luck two stages ot the game
n-av be explained. In the fifth inning there
were three men on bases and nobody out.
One or two runs looked certain; just Bale as
wheat in the mill. Baldwin with the bases
filled struck out and still that was consid
ered much of a downfall. Miller followed
and even a long fly would tie the score.
But George only knocked up a little infield
flv to third base and Comiskey "scooped"
if touching both Miller and Corkhill out.
"With a tremendous moan everybody said,
"That is tough luck."
In the seventh inning the bases were full
again and only one man out, when Miller
once more walked up to the plate to try and
bring in victory.
Some Very Unlucky Ftajrrs.
Everybody thought again that a run was
sure to" score. But George knocked up an
anotherlittle fly to third base, and Latham
"coopcd" the ball and easily touched out
Farrell and Corkhill. Once more the crowd
with one voice, "You bet that's tough
luck" After these disasters everybody
was certain that victory was possible lor
our sluggers. But the time for slugging
came, aud it was done to the Queen's taste.
The run-getting commenced in the first
inning and it was in favor of Comiskey and
his men. McPhee made a single to Tight
field, a very lucky one, but was forced out
at second by Latham. The latter started to
steal second, and in trying to head him oS
Miller threw the ball into center field, al
lowing Latham to reach third. A sacrifice
hit by O'Xeil scored Latham, and that run
looked as big as a block of houses right
away up to the ninth inning. Both pitch
ers were pitching in the very best form, and
that one run had a terrible look to the home
plavers aud the crowd when the ninth
inning was started.
Where All tho Fan Starte-d.
That old war horse, Ed Swartwood,
started the inning and also the lun. Swarty
got a good swipe at the ball and knocked it
donn the left held line tor two bases. Had
Ed been a reasonably good runner lie could
have made a triple of it The Duke of'Marl
borough, Charley Farrell, followed with a
terrific hit, driving the ball into center. The
ball bounded off Holliday's foot and Farrell
made three bases, of course scoring Swart
wood. Then there was cheering both by
men and women. "Pop" Corkhill came
next and he scored victory by a neat single
over second base and then the crowd be
came franctic with excitement. Baldwin
made a sacrifice hit sending Corkhill to sec
ond and Miller followed with a long single
to center, scoring Corkhill. Bierbauer's
sacrifice sent Miller to second. Shugart
continued the cannonading by banging the
ball into right field for a single. Miller
tried to score, but Halligan made a splen
did throw home and Miller was nabbed at
the plate. The score:

BUBKS WILL HOI SIGN,
Unless He Gets a Three-Year Contract With
out the Release Clnnsp.
CmcAGO.May 19. Special. To-day Tommy
Bums received his contract from Pittsburg,
hut it-was not to his liking. It was nn ordi
nary player's contract, and whilo it stipu
lates that Burns was to captain and manage
the team lor a period of three years at $5,000
per annum, it contained the usual ten days'
notice ot release clause.
"They could Are mo In a month if I signed
such a contract," said Burns. "My lawyer
will draw up an ironclad contract, running
absolutely lor three years. Thore will bo
no release clause in it. I will send it to
Pittsburg for npproval, and if tho officials
telegraph tno that the contract meets their
appiovnl and that thev hare shrned it I will
take charge of the team lieie on Saturday.
Of course.it will bo impossible for me to play
for some weeks yet, but as soon as I am able
I will cover third base. My position will be
the same as Anson's. Buckenbercer will
simply look after the financial and business
end, and I will have absolnte control of the
team."
The County League.
There was quite an enthusiastic meeting of
the County League last evening to discuss
the situation. It was agreed that Manager
Walker, of the Wilkinsburg club, visit Brad
doct to-day and conlcr with Manager
Schwab with a view of getting the Braddock
team to Join the League. If that team will
join they will play at Wilkinsburg to-morrow
and fill out tho dates scheduled for the
Climax team. If the Braddocks do not join
the League will continue with fivo clubs.
Evory tiling is propotous. The umpires
have been instructed to enforce the rule

The wind carried a high fly ball knocked out by
Halligan yesterday, far out of Corkhlll's reach,
and tbe batter had.to be credited with a two-bigger.
The Keystones arc booked to play two games at
Meant llle, two Butler and games at PhllUpsbarg,
East Liverpool. Masslllon, Canton, Akron, Alli
ance and Columbus.
SAXDY GKISWOLD says: "Ellcl Edalcjorg got
tangled up with his name in a game recently and
gave 12 men bases on balls and bored a hole in tno
others; still tbe Cowboys won the game."
THE Harrards hare not been able to do much
with Pitcher Johu Xlley In the two games they
hare faced him. It Is a wonder that some New
England league nine has not secured him.
The Senators bare pushed Yank Robinson to the
wall. Tomlnle Dowd tried his hand at short yes
terday and made three errors, but eren that didn't
prevent tnem from lambasting the Quakers.
NED HAXLON wag practicing yesterday morning,
and found that he could run quite as well as befoie
be Injured a tendon. He will probably begin play
ing with the team In a day or two. -V. T. bun.
IT is said that a combine exists among League
players to work out non-playing managers. The
sucressful playing managers are Ward. Anson,
Comiskey, Tebeau and Hanlon. The ambitious
captains are Ewlng, Itlchardson and Pfeffer.
IT seems rather strange that "Nick" Young
docs not assign cither Gaffney or Lynch to umpire
such Important games as Those (tetween Boston and
Brooklyn. When New York and Brooklvn meet
both of these Judges of play will doubtless be
needed.
The Omaha Pee says: "Tbe only place where
Halligan could be profltablv utilized in fast com
pany Is at tbe bat. He Is more than an ordinary
clcrer backstop, throws finely, and with the stick
can generally be relied on. although he falls down
for weeks at a time. ' '
THErenort that Pitcher Clarkson Is to be re
leased br the Boston club is authoritatively de
nied, but it Is understood that tie Is to chiefly
figure on tbe bench and at the turnstile during the
remainder of tbe season. A good offer for Storey
would doubtless 6ecure his release.
Pitcher SIullane, of tbe Cincinnati!, rises to
remark: "The cry goes up from every quarter
that the Bostons are lucky, that they are winning
games on their gall. If they are winning now
without hitting, what will they do when they get
down to their real rait. It Is a great batting as
well as a great fielding and base-running team."
THERE seems to be some uneasiness amonT the
Washington olayers over the expectation of the
release of Hor aud Hie succession In the field of
Dowd. Humor has It that Hoy has not glrcn satis
faction. Yet. according to statistics, he ba3 been
leading the club in batting. He outranks I ti Meld
ing Walsh Gore and Duffr. The real trouble is
that Hor Is drawing too much money, and if lie is
released It will be to reduce expenses.
A little trick that 'Ward played In Louisville
that prevented Taylor from being credited with a
stolen base, is still being laughed over by the
Brooklyn players. Taylor had made a double, and
was moving toward third when Kinslow throw
down to catch him napping. The ball went wild,
hat Ward clapped his hands togethor and touched
Taylor on the back as he slid over tile bag. Before
tho Louisville player knew what had occurred the
hall was fielded and Taylor could not reach third
base.
TURF RECORDS AND TALK.
Garrison Reappears at Gravcsend and Vf Ins
a Race Some Close Finishes.
Gravesfsd, N. Y May 19. A cold wind ac
companied by rain blew ucross tho track
this nrternoon and greatly interfered with
tho sport. Had tho day been pleasant an
immense crowd would have heen present to
see the tunning off of tho Seaside stakes for
two-year-olds and the Carlton stakes for six-year-olds.
The former was won by Sir
Walter, who was made a gift of tho stakes
through Starter Eowe's failure to send the
field away on anything like oven terms. The
Carlton, however, resulted in a stirring
finish and a victory for Charade who was
ridden by Garrison in his old-time style.
Tho spectators gave the Snapper a grand
ovation when ho returned to the Judge's
stand to wei-rh.
Raccland, 7 to 10 favorite for the first race,

thiid close, finish of the afternoon was that
of Void, who Just got up in time to defeat
the Lady Longfellow colt for the second

stakes, wns knoced to pieces on tho back

rSFECIAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCn.l
Columbus, O., May 19. Frank Van
Loon, the man who murdered the cashier
of a bank in Columbus Grove, and who waa
tried and sentenced to be hanged November
2, has written a letter to Governor McICin
ley in which he makes a novel proposition.
The letter is now in the hands of Warden
James. The epistle abounds in very bad
spelling.
In it he protests his innocence, declarine
he was convicted by perjury, and finally re
quests tbe Governor to havo tho "officers of
the law" lay him up on a cross, "and," he
says, "I will hold the spikes while they
drive them in my hands and feet, if one man
can be found who will truthfully say he be
lieves me guilty." The letter was written
Monday night and enclosed in an envelope
which contained a letter to his wife. When
it reached the Warden's office that official
quietly took charge of it, and it will never
reach the Governor's office. The letter cov
ers four pages ot note paper, and is incoher
ently pathetic The Warden declines to
give the letter out for publication.
Van Loon addresses Governor McKinley
af "Dear Governor," and says he does not
ask that the Governor shall come down to
the pen aud open the doors of the annex to
let him step out iree. "But," he writes,
"for the sake of the little baby and the
wile, whose heart is broken and whose blood
is frozen to icicles in her veins, I do ask
to be given a chance to prove my inno
cence." This, he thinks, will bean absolute test
ot his innocence or guilt. The letter is,
apparently, the product of a dfsordered
mind.

Ask your doctor what hap
pens to cod-liver oil when it
gets inside of you.
He will say it is shaken
and broken up into tiny
drops, becomes an emulsion ;
there are other changes, but
this is the first.
He will tell you also that
it is economy to take the oil
broken up, as it is in Scott's
Emulsion, rather than bur
den yourself with this work.
You skip the taste too.
Let us send you an inter
esting book on careful liv
ing; free.
