IfPECTAL TELEGRAM TO TITS DISPATCH.!
Boston, July 18. If the Pittsburg
strikers create any more disturbances like
that of to-dav Gov
ernor Itussell trill
call out the militia
in order to protect
the Bean -caters
from the rioters.
Tn. brawny repre
sentatives of the
city of strikers
came to Boston to
day and gave an
exhibition of the
acts of terrorism
which have been
practiced in the
vicinity of their
home. The cham
pion Bean Eaters represented the Carnegie
interests, but unlike the Homestead pro
prietors they were perfectly willing to arbi
trate after the trouble began. It was the
strikers who refused to listen to arguments.
They fell upon the Bean-eaters with relent
less fury and forced them battered and
bleeding to unconditional surrender. The
battle was hotly contested and the Pittsburg
rioters won.
A Blow to the Champions.
It was a severe blow to the proud cham
pions of the first part, lor they wanted to
win to-day's game, but Burns' hustlers had
other plans, and when the struggle was
ended the Pittsburgs were the victors by
the score of 9 to 7. They outplayed the
Bostons at every point and fairly earned the
game. It was not won on a fluke. The
playing of the visitors was of such a supe
rior kind that the spectators forgot their
sorrow at the defeat of the home nine in ad
miration of the brilliant playing of the vic
tors. Beckley was the happiest man on the
winning team, for he had the command. He
played a superb game at first, stopping
everything that was thrown or hit within
si: feet of him. Such fine pick-ups and
Teaches for widely thrown balls have never
'oefore been seen on the grounds. It looked
as though Shugart and Bierbauer were in a
plt ,io give their acting captain plenty of
grand stand exercise. The Pittsburgs be
gan scoring in the very first inning, but
Donovan's rnn was due solely to errors by
Stivetts, Kelly and Lowe.
Tuey Balled Stivetts Very Hard.
In the third inning they began to bat and
tuey batted to such good purpose that Bier
bauer, Shugart aud Beckley scored earned
runs on their on n hits; a single by Smith and
an attempted put out and Smith was en
abled to cross the plate by means of a
stolen base aud a wild throw by Long. They
thus had a comfortable lead ot five runs be
fore the Bostons awoke to the fact that they
bad run up against a combination of ball
players.
In the fourth inning the Bostons put in a
tingle and a double after Bald win had given
a base on balls and two runs were secured.
In the first half of the fifth inning the
Bostons tied the score by combining three
hits with two sacrifices, two bases on balls
and wild throws by Miller and Shugart In
the last half of the fifth inning,
the Pirates pounded in three more
runs. Beckley Tjegan the sport
with a two-bagger, and after Smith was re
tired Farrell followed with a single and
Joe Kelly with a three-bagger, the latter hit
sending in two earned runs. Kelly scored
on Xash's wild throw, and Pittsburg had the
game. The Bostons made another brace in
the eighth inning, and scored two runs on a
base on balls and hits by Quinn and Mc
Carthy, but they still needed a run in order
to tie the score The game was too close for
comfort, so the visitors increased their lead
by one run in the eighth inninir, Baldwin
scoring on his hit, an attempted put-out and
two sacrifices. Attendance, 1,127. The

GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAT
Providing the weather is fine to-day, the
Homewood races will commence in grand
style. Yesterday the track was crowded al
day with horses. None of them were sent
along very speedily, but many of them
were watched by hundreds of spectators
with very keen interest. Bebus, the now
famous pacer, was the cynosure of all eyes,
and after seeing him perform a little, more
than one horseman said that he would have
to go his best to wiu the "Oil Producers'
Stake." He is a good pacer and no mis
take, but there are other good ones at the
meeting. Bebus may start to-day in the
"Glass Manufacturers' Stake" for pacers
eligible to the 2:35 class. The local pacer
Baven, owned by H. S. Stewart, was also
out and pleased the talent considerably.
She is a very speedy mare and some local
money will be invested on her.
There was a big arrival of strangers in the
city yesterday for the races, and it seems
that the Detroit meeting is not going to
have any injurious effect on the races here.
Many of the horsemen who arrived stated
that the Detroit Association has been re
sorting to very small tricks to induce own
ers not to come to the Pittsburg meeting
and go to Detroit The unfair inducements
offered, however, have not been successful.
Among the horsemen who arrived yester
dav were: B. T. Meginniss, Cambridge,
Md.; N. Cutler and Hartley C. Davis, New
York; "W. S. Frash, Huntingdon, Ind.;
Colonel A. Collins, Rochester, N. Y.; M. G.
Thompson, Utica, U-. Y.; Frank L. Herdic,
"Williamsport, and K. Lewis, Cincinnati.
Ot course Frank Herdic had much to sav.
He took a very cheerful look at the pros
pects of the next few days. "Whv, my
boy," he said, "we'll have one of tne best
race meetings ever held in Pittsburg.
There'll be a wonderful lot of horses here
and pray, don't ask me to pick any win
ners, that is too bard a task. The prob
abilities are that there will be some sur
prises as there are quite a number of what
we may call new horses here."
Speaking of the trotting prospects gen
erally Mr. Herdic said that the Grand
Circuit will be extremely flourishing this
year and that some phenomenal time will
be made.
The bell for the first race will ring at 1:30
this afternoon.

A H0VELTY FOR HORSEMEN.
They Are Dellchted at the Expectation of
the Fonr-SIIIe Knc .
Horsemen all overthe country are delight
ed over the lact that the Coney Island
Jockey Club has decided to give a four-mile
race at its' autumn meeting at Shcepsuoud
Bay. John A. Morris and other horsemen
think that Lexington's time can easily be
beaten. Our good horsos could smother the
old-timers that our fathers and grandfathers
tell of, and the owners of St. Floriau says
that in a thousand years hence the race
lior.se will be a magnificent animal of 17
hands or so, capable of running a mile in
1:25 or 1:30. Mr. Morris is certain that he can
select 30 or 40 horses that can surpass Lex
ington's record, and Jimmy Rowo, -who has
trained the best horses that have stood on
iron on this continent, and whose judgment
is first class, is of the same opinion as Mr.
Morris.
It is expected that such stayers as Long
street, Judge Morrow, or Strathmeatli, or
Poet Scout will be able to beat Lexington's
time.
An analysis of Lexington's 7:19 shows
that each mile in 1:49V would beat it handi
ly. It should only De ptay for any fair horso
to do this over the Slicepshead Bav course.
The best record for four miles is 7:15J, made
by the 4-year-old Ten Broeck, Burying 104:
Sounds, the trial belnc held at Louisville,
v., September 27,1876. Two yeais earlier
Fellowcraft, a 4-year-old, carrying four

BAENES GETS HIS RELEASE.
Baldwin and His Jockey Have Trouble
Abont a Horse Race.
Chicago, July 18. Special. "Pike" Barnes
has asked to be reased from the contract
that binds him to ride for "Lucky" Bald
win's Santa Anita stable at a big salary this
season. His leslgnatlon will be accepted,
and Barnes may not be seen again in the
"black, with red Maltese cross."
Barnes rode for Baldwin several years ago,
and was released because the California
millionaire was not satisfied with the work
performed by the able rider, the split fol
lowing the expose of the alleged combine
that existed in the East betweon colored
riders and horso owners. The latest break
In business relations was, it is said, the out
come of the first race at Washington Park
yesterday. Two of the seven contestants
were Gallndo and Sprlngaway. The former
is owned by Baldwin, was heavily backed by
the stable and was ridden by Barnes.
Sprlngaway was entered by Jockey "Tiny"
Williams, and has been accounted all season
as tho property of Williams and Barnes. In
a hot drive Sprlngaway beat Gallndo. A re
pot t that Barnes had backed Sprlngaway
caused the Baldwin stable, it is said, to sta
tlon watches about the course nnd it was
lurther rumored that these experts reported
that Barnes had pocketed Galindo and then
came itn a rush at the end too late to win,
aiding Springawny to victory. Trainer Dow
Williams, ot the Baldwin stable acknowl
edged that Barnes would retire, but refused
to sav that yesterday's race had anything to
do with the" matter. To the judges Barnes
declared that he owned no part of Spring
away, although he did admit that he allowed
his name to be used in connection with the
colt's ownership.
Jockey Barnes and Jockey Williams are
partners in a saloon in tnls city. Their
friends won heavily on Springaway yester
day. TO RIVAL WASHINGTON PARK.
Western Horse Owners and Breeders In
tend to Organize a Company.
Chicago, July 18. There may be another
race track in Chicago next year to be built,
owned and occupied by an organization of
hoi-be breeders and owners, who will take
this means of redressing their accumulated
grievances against .Washington Park. The
plan with which many of the most promi
nent owneis and breeders in the South and
West whose names have been standing in
the Washington Park stake book since its
first publication are Identified has gone be
yond the embryotio stage, and although it
may never be ttansferred from paper to
leality, there is no lack of determination or
means behind it. It contemplated declaring
all 01 the Washington Park stakrs, and
lacing only at the track controlled directly
by the owners. This action Is pi oposed he
cause of the great dissatisfaction among
horsemen w ith the way Washington Park is
conducted.
Since the opening of the present meeting,
breeders and owners have met and discussed
the situation, and E. J. Baldwin, Sco'gln
Bros., and others have expressed themselves
strongly in favor of organization and action.
Clitnn and Morgan, owners of the Kentucky
stable, extensively engaged in the Wash
ington Park stakes, brought 23 horses here
over a week ago with the intention of start
ing them in the stakes and purses, but they
were curtly informed that ther would have
to provide shelter lor their animals outside
of the grounds. Other owners have been
accorded similar treatment, and say that
when It comes to collecting forfeits they
will give the club an argument on the ground
that the club having failed to furnish stabl
ing accommodations they were unable to
race their horses.

WARM BECEPTIONS GIVEN THEM.
Thousands to Bide Their Silent Steeds in

ENTRIES FOR CHAMPIONSHIP ITENTS
fSPECTAl TELEGRAM TO THE DIRPATCHI.
"Washington, July 18. "Welcome L.
A- "W." was the sign on buildings in hotels
and other places of business in all parts of
the city to-day, and the visiting wheelmen
were given a royal reception. The city was
virtually given up to the knights ot the
silent steed who had stolen in during the
late hours of Saturday night, as well as all,
day yesterday.
Visiting cyclists are pouring into the
city by the hundreds, and the Ebbitt House,
where the headquarters of the league are
established, presents a lively sight A
modest estimate based upon the registra
tion of organization places the number of
wheelmen in Washington at upwards of
15,000, representing every section of the
United States. .
Badge collecting seemed to be the chief
end of each man's craving, and many of the
crowd were covered from waist to shoulders
with the emblems swapped from the collec
tions of brother wheelmen.
Arthur Strong, of the Buffalo (K. Y.)
Press Cycling Club, is the champion col
lector. He was decorated with 47 badges of
diflerent designs, and he bore no small like
ness to a ribbon counter on bargain day.
Great Events Planned for To-Day.
To-morrow will be the most eventful day
of the meet. The first event will be the
grand parade which will start from the
Capitol at 10 o'clock passing along Pennsyl
vania avenue in review before President
Harrison. In the line will be the officers of
the League, numerous cycle clubs from all
sections, as well as the local division and
the military cycle corps. The parade will
be on the streets in all probability for about
one hour and will disband at the base of the
Washington Monument, where the photo
graph will be taken.
.Races are always thought to be the prin
cipal feature ot a bicycle meet and the
wheelmen expect to see the finest races
to-morrow and Wednesday that were ever
rnn on a track. Analostan Island track is
in fine condition although it will require a
great deal of wetting before the races.
Owing to the shape ot the track the racers
expect to break no records except those
made on that particular track. All of the
entry lists for the handicap and class events
are well filled, bnt in the L. A. W. cham

How Much Baby's Life Depends
Upon Her Care.
July a Trying Month for the Parents
of Little Children.
Dn
J, E Hanaford Tells How Many and
Many a Wea Life Can Ba Save!
"Few.roothers realize the responsibility that
comes with the little life that has been Intrusted to
them.
"It Is the mother who is directly responsible for
the health of her child, and upon her knowledge
and care often depends the life of tbe little one."
The speaker was a prominent physician who
knows the conditions upon which a baby's life de
pends as well as. If not better than, any other man
in Pittsbnrg.
The following letter, from Mrs. Taylor, of Me
dora, IIL, that was recently published IntheClil
eago,ftroW. Illustrates the value of a mother's
knowledge. Mrs. Taylor
writes: "When my baby
was two months old. he
was not as large as when be
was born. He had been
troubled with a weakness of
the bowels, and nothing
'. that we could do for hint
j helped him one bit. We
were feeding him cow's
milk at tbe time and It did
miirTiTum- noi small uuu. ii no
seemed starved and hungry all the while.
"When two months old we pat him on Iictated
food, and It acted like a charm, so that now you
cannot find a healthier, happier baby. He sleps
all night and plays all day. and his picture shows
what lactated food did for him. I hope all mothers
who are obliged to feed their little ones will have
the blessing or knowing of this wonderful food
that saved my baby's life."
Dr. J. II. Hanaford, the well-known medical au
thority says: "Tbe fact that abont fifteen Infants
to every hundred born, die during tbe first year, is
significant and lamentable. I am decidedly of the
opinion that the general Introduction of lactated
food would materially diminish this death rate.'
Lactated food Is not a medicine, but simply" a
pure combination of sngar of milk and the nutri
tious elements of wheat and barley that ean be ob
tained at any drug store. 2 cents will buy enough
to make ten pints of good, wholesome food that
will keep the little one strong and well and lay the
foundation for a sound body- and vigorous health
la the years to come.
