?yf?W THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, T "WEDNESDAY, MAT 25, 189a SPIDERSMME NEXT, Cleveland's Plucky Baseball Team "Will Appear Here To-Day. SMITH WILL TKY IT AGAIN. The Bostons Get Two Games From the Ifew York Players. ED BANKS'S TEAM VICTOEIOUS. Winners at Graresend and on the Latonia and L Iouis Tracts. GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OP THE DAY So far as fine weather has been concerned the Western trips of the local ball team have been very bad ones. Once more rain Tetoed a game for the home players at Chi cago yesterday, and left them no chance whatever to win another game before com ing home. So far, these Western trips have not paid expenses, according to the figures of a local magnate. The local sluggers will stop over in the city to-day on their way to "Washington, to play off a postponed game with the Cleve land team. The contest cannot be other than an interesting one, as the Forest City fellows have not been here yet They are really a plucky lot of players, and are capable of giving the best of people just as tough an argument as may be desired. There is also considerable rivalry between the partisans of the two teams, judging from the way in which a few of said partisans keep bandying remarks to and fro. And there is a deal of money bet as to which of the two teams will be higher up" at the finish of the first pennant race. Altogether there is likely to be quite a lively contest Captain Touimv Burns will also make his fir.t appearance here to-day in a Pittsburg uniform. He will be in the coacher's box, as he is yet unable to play. Tommy is an earnest man on the ball field, whatever his other qualities may be, and as he has the players in charge now the better part will be to give him a cheering reception. Elmer Smith will pitch for the home players, and he has an old score to settle with the Cleve land lot They beat him at Cleveland a short time ago. He may have better luck to-day. The teams will be made up as follows: Fittshurg. Position. Cleveland. Miller Left Burkett Bierhauor Second Chllds Shuaart Shoit I'avis Beckley. First Viituo Smith.. Pitcaer.Davles orKcttser .Third Tebeau .Right Doylo .Catcher O'Connor .Center McAleer Raymond. Fafrell...., Slack Coikhill... The Pittsburg players will bat in the above order. After the game the teams will leave for "Washington and Baltimore respectivelv to begin their Eastern series to-morrow. The local team will not return until June 15 ex cept for two games here on Decoration Day with Baltimore. The trip will be quite a long one and many chances are sure to hap pen all round before it is over. At present Ed Swartwood is unable to play on account of his injured arm. Farrell will be kept in the outfield in the meantime and Raymond at third until Captain Burns is readv to Play. Clevt-lind, 2 St. Lbnis, 0. CLEVELAKD.May 24. The Browns were shut out to-day, mainly by McAleer, who threw Werden out at the plate in the fourth and caught Brodie's home-run drive to center field in tho sixth, when two men were on bases and two out But for poor base run ning the Clevelands could have had at least two more. The fielding was harp on both sides. Attendance, 1,600. Weather warm and cloudy. Score: CLEVELAND P. B P A I ST.

When the ball team of the University of Michigan arrived hero on Saturday, Harness, ono of the pitch ers of the club, nas taken to a hospital suf fering from an aberration of the mind, brought on by overwork. Harness when taken to the hospital conversed intelligently upon everything that had happened prior to last Wednesday. Uoon subjects subsequent to that timo his mind seemed to be confused and wandering. These spells of forgetful nes, however, are intermittent and when they pass he seems porfoctly clear in his mind. Yesterday whilo suffering from ono of these spoils he escaped from tho hospital and wandered several miles ncross country. He then came to himseir.andasbcdn police man to have him returned to tho hospital. This was done, and he now seems perfectly rational. The doctors at the hospital are of the opinion that the younsr man's troublo will be only temporary. Harness will be taken back home when the team returns. TBANSFEBBEb THE CLTJB. Tha St. Panl TSall Team Will Now Hall From Fort tYayne. CottTMBcs, May 24 iSpmaf Tho St. Paul Baseball Club was to-day transferred to Ft Wayne, and tho fate of the AdosUcs has at Ian been settled.

Robinson, of "Cleveland, who owns a street railroad In Ft Wavne, is at tho head of the Fort Wayne .Compa'ny. He will assume all the salaries and expenses of tho club from this date forward. The League will be compelled to stand the losses Incurred thus far. Denver was unable to make a better proposition than tho first, because of difficulty in the matter of securing grounds. The only changes that will he necessary viill be to change the St Paul dates to Fort Wayne. Opened Their Season. The opening game or the season of the Plttsbnre Compositors' Baseball League was played yesterday afternoon between The Dispatch and the Commercial-Gazette teams, the former winning quite easily, though the Gazelle nine played a very strong came after the" third inning. The playing of both teams was good at times, hut both snowed need or piactice, csuecially in throwing to basos. The bad condition of the grounds had mncli to do with the large score, and spoiled what should have been some pretty plays. Now that the season has commenced fairly well, it is expected tne regular schedule "games will continue without interruption. Score: Dispatch 6 8 0 10 2 0-17 Commercial-Gazette 0 16 2 10 010 Exciting Game at "Washington. Washikgtos, May 24. Special.

P. and tho Genevas was played to-day at Geneva. Tho Geneva boys evidently had It in for the W. U. P. boys, as in tho second Inning they made nine rnns. The W. TT. P. pitcher. Earnest, hnd a very bad arm before the game, and he strained it slightly in the last part of tho first inning, causing him to play badly in the second. McClnrg was substituted in the third, and held the Genevas down to two runs and three hits for the balance of the came. The features were the playing of Mc Masters and McClurz for the W. C. P., and McClockey and Dodds for the Geneva. Score: Geneva 3 9 0 0 0 2 0 0 014 W. U. P 0 0051000 1-7 Summart Hits-Geneva, 3; W. U. P., 7. Errors -Geneva, 8; W. V. P.. 7. Entertained Their Friends.

I do not like to sij that Chicago will win the championship orthe first division, but I expect that Chicago will finish third, mavbe fourth, it Is mv belief that Chicago will be very much in the. fight for first place In tho second division. Philadelphia should be sixth in the race, counting the five clubs I have named as leaders. There 16 also a chance In this respect for Pittsburg." TURF RECORDS AND TALK. Bolero Canses Quito a Sniprlse on the Gravesend Track Defeating Ttnnquet. Gravfsejd, May 24. Fully t) 000 people Journeyed here this afternoon to witness tho running off of the Clover stakes for 2-year-old Allies and the Brooklyn Detbyfor 3-year-olds and four other events of the sweepstake order. The weather was perfect but the track was a trifle dead. Tho sport was inaugurated by a win for M. F. Dwyer, his colt Hammie, formerly tho Ethic colt, winning cleverly with the comfortable odds of 3 to 1 against him. A surprise then cropped up, Bqlero defeating Mr. Dwyor's Banqnet who was an odd-on favorite. Bo lero is the horse Mr. P. J. Dwyer paid $35,000 for at the weeding out sale of the late Hon. W. L. Scott The colt proved a disappoint ment to Mr. Dwyer nnd this spring ho sold him to Fathor Bill Daly for $3,000. His vic tory this afternoon furnished considerable food for gossip. Then came the Clover stikes. Tho start was a wretched effort, Raindrop bolna fully two lengths in front of her field, whiln Pro- prietv was four lengths out of it Under Taral's persistent riding Raindrop secured the prize, but Proprietv, who nipped Minne haha on the post lor second money, ran tne best race. Charade and Patron were touted far ana wide assure winners of tho Derby, but it was really no contest, as Patron went out at the fall or the flag and showed a clean pair of heels to the finish, which he p.ised rather easily six lengths in tront of Chnraile, Garrison working like a madman on the latter throughout the last half milo.

INTERPEEMG A LAW. Several Knots in the State Eevenne Act to He Unraveled by THE SUPREME COURT KEXT WEEK. An Ei-Pepartmsnt President of the Ohio W. K. C. Is Now on TriaL NEWSY KOTES FROM NEARBI TOWNS ISPECIAt TELEGRAM TO TltE DISPATCH.! Haerisburg, May 24. The number of cases to be heard next week by the Supreme Court are fewer than usual, but they in volve several new and important questions relating to the revenues of the Common wealth. Nearly every case involves ques tions' arising out of the taxation of stock of manufacturing companies "organized ex clusivelv for manufacturing purposes." This expression occurs for the first time in the revenue act of 1889. One question to be decided by this Court is what the word "organized" means, whether it means chartered, or formed, or created, and whether it refers to what a company does with its capital stock, even outside of its charter or organization. Another question tobe decided is, "Whether a valuation placed upon patent rights by a corporation in its capital stock is taxable. All of the corporations in tho State claim that this valuation on capital stock in patent rights cannot be taxed by the State, as it is a violation of the Constitution of the United States. Another Important question to be decided is, Whether under tho revenue aotof 1889 an apportionment of the capital stock or a manufacturing coruoration "organized ex clusively for manufacturing purposes" can be made for taxation. These different questions involve very largo amounts, and their decision will decide a large number of Commonwealth cases that have been decided by the Court of Common Pleas of Dauphin county. Just cnoush cases havo been taken to the Supreme Court to decido all these questions. A WOMAN'S SAD MANIA. She Tries to Hans Herself to Forestall Hnrm Sbn Alight Do to Others.
