GENERAL BFORTIXG KEWS OF THE DAT
Forced by adverse circumstances, the
local ball club officials tried an experiment
yesterday, and it
v" - came out all right
I -4n Will Gumbert, of
the East End
Gyms, was put in
to pitch for the
home sluggers, and
be won his game.
This being so, the
experiment was all
right, but had
"William been on
the losing side, it
is safe to say that
it would have
been deemed all
wrong by the
many people who
are disposed to find fault at everything.
But all's well that ends well, and Will
Gumbert deserves great credit indeed for
the good work he did during the game. An
son's Colts are not the easiest people in
the world to fool, and at several stages of
yesterday's game it looked as if they were
going to turn Gumbert up. But good old
Dame Fortune was on his side, and he
pulled out all right from very many tight
places.
Lack Was With the Sluggers.
It is useless to deny that luck wns with
our sluggers, but even granting that, it is a
lactthat just at the most critical stages
Gumbert performed with remarkable cool
ness, and he was supported to the Queen's
taste His victory couldn't do other than
please the cranks. The game was certainly
a very interesting one, and such games are
worth teeing. The visitors had more hits
than our sluggers, but the hits made off
Gumbert's delivery were scattered through
eight innings, while our sluggers got five of
theirs bunched into one inning, and that
won the game. It is not olten that Jfitts
burg has such luck as that
But "Old Hutch" pitched a great game,
despite the fact of that second inning.
Alter that staze only two little singles were
made offhis delivery. His support was ex
cellent, and if anybody could be found iault
with it was Captain Anson himself.
.Anson Made a Big Mistake.
He missed an opportunity to score a run
in the sixth inning, and had he made
the tally the score would have been tied in
the ninth. In the inning named Anson got
his base on balls, and went to second on
Duugan's long single. Canavan knocked a
grounder to Bierbauer, and while the latter
and Shugart and Beckley were making a
double play, Anson stood comfortably at
third, and the side was eventually retired
without a run. It is evident that Anson is
not playing with that rim and dash that
used to characterize his work. But he is
getting older.
The second inning was, of course, a great
and glorious inuine for Pittsburg. After
Beckley was out Farrell singled to lelt
Smith lollowed with a single in the same
direction, and Wilmot fumbled the balk the
runners landing on third and second re
spectively. Mack rapped out a lucky
double to right field, and two runs scored.
Corkhill's sacrifice tent Mack to third, and
a safe infield hit by Gumbert scored Mack.
Miller came next with a fine two-bagger to
lelt, and Gumbert scored the lourth earned
run. After that the local players could
never score.
liow tho Colts Got Their Bans.
In the first inning the visitors had three
men ou bases, but could not get a run in.
In the third Dungan and Canavan each made
a siugle and Coonev followed their ex
ample sending home Dungan. Hutchinson
scot a grounder to Shugart who threw
Cooney out at second and Bierbauer threw
Hutch out at first, effecting a double play.
Schriver retired the side.
In the eighth Anson got his base on balls
snd Dungan made a double, sending Aucon
to third. Canavan went out at first and
.Anson scored on Cooney's sacrifice. In the
ninth a wild throw by Gumbert allowed
Schriver to reach first and he got to second
on Wilmot's single. Gumbert fumbled
Dalilen's bunt and the bases were lull.
Schriver scored on Lubv's long fly, aud in
attempting to steal third Wilmot was
thrown out by Mack. Anson was splen
didly caught out by Pop Corkhill and the
game waslost and won. There were 1,000
people present. The score.

HE SIGHED WITH ST. LOUIS.
Jimmy Galvln Makes Good Terms With
Von der Ahe and sheaves Us.
Jimmy Galvln signed a contract yesterday
afternoon to play for the St Louis Club.
The officials of the local club signed him for
Von der Ahe. Jimmv Is to set a salary at
the rate of $3,300 for the entire season, so
that he has bettered his position financially.
During yesterday, one of the club directors
said:
"Galvin was offered to 11 clubs and bnt
one wanted him. I was greatly surprised.
St. Louis agreed to assume Jim's contract of
$3,300 for the year, and if Jim refuses to go
to St Louis then the Pittsburg club will re-
lease him outright an action which will I
lose mm 11c least $i,vaj &a,iary on mis season
and much more hereafter, lor Von der Ahe
will then make his own term with him.
Galvin is good for five years' pitching yet,
and will pitch well outside of Pittsburg or
as soon as I'O gefs away from some of his
jollr friends here."
When this was pointed out to Old Sport he
at once isncd thn contract and displayed
his good sense. Hundreds of local cranks
wish Jimmy well. He has been a great card
in Pittsburg lor a long time, and is a good
pitcher yet.
Ehret wired Manager Buckenberger yes
terday that he wan not in condition yet "to
Eitch, but will he able to Join the team at
ouisville Tuesday.
A soon as Galvin arrives at St. Louis
Strieker will leave lor Baltimore, and then
Terry will come here. If Washington does
not allow Donovan to come here, the local
club will withdraw the release of Raymond.

Politics of Mors Interest to Congressmen
Than Public AHalrs,
Washington, June 16. Tho attention of
the Senate to-day was devoted to three im
portant subjects. The bill for the free coin
age of silver occupied the first place, both
in point of time and importance Nest to it
camo the question of the leference of tho
House anti-option bill, and finally the con
ference report on the rlvais and harbors
bill occupied the closing two hours of the
session. The silver bill was discussed by
Mr. Morrill, who was replied to by Mr. Stew
art, and it went over without action. It was
expected that the reference of the anti
option bill wonld provoke a somewhat bit
ter controversy, but that expectation was
not verified. Atter a short discussion it was
referred to the Judiciary Committee, 31r.
Washburn stating to the friends of the bill
that ho had ascertained that tho bill would
not be delayed in that commlttee.but would
be icported as promptly ns possible, so that
before tho adjournment of this session tho
Senate would have an opportunity of pass
ing upon this question In which the whole
conntrv (outside of the gimbllng institu
tions of Chicago and New York ana ft few
commercial centeis) was so deeply inter
ested. Tho conference report on the river
and harbor bill was made by Mr. Frye. who
stated that an agreement had oecu reached
on all but two nuiendtnenti which were tor
the boat railway around the Dalles of the
Columbia river, and for a canal in the State
of Washington to connect the waters of
Lake Washington with those of Puget
Sound. After a long discussion the Senate
insisted on Its amendments, and agreotl to
a further conlerence and then the Senate
adlourned until Mondaynext
Notwithstanding the fact that the tin
plate bill engrossed the entire time of the
House to-day. little attention was paid to
the debate. The exodus to Chicago had be
gun, and the return from Minneapolis slow.
vVhen a Democrat was speakinz lie would
have an audience of about 50 Democratic
members; when he ceased this audience
would disappear; and on the other side a
similar number of members would rally to
listen to their champion. But on both sides
the Interest was largely perfunctory. It
was directed mote to jthe speaker than to
the subject to which he addressed himself.
The hall was practically deserted through
the session. The House adjourned without
taking action on the bill.

charges and trial The letter Irom Miles
Dean says:
"In 1886 I deserted my wife, whom I
had married three years before in Darling
ton, Pa. I persuaded my cousin, Milton
Dean, to live with her. I believe she mis
took him for me. "When I read in the
papers that she had deserted him and he
had married again, and that she had him ar
rested for bigamy, I was surprised. I know
that he is not a bigamist If he has been
sentenced please take steps to have him
pardoned and I will pay everything. I
wish him to know that I am trying to get
him out of the trouble I got him into. "
Efforts will be made to secure an affidavit
from the trne husband, Miies, and obtain a
pardon for the victim in this extraordinary
case, who is now serving a term in the
