Louis 6 Those Colonels from Louisville quite re Ttrsed matters w ith our sluggers yesterday compared with the contest on Friday. They put their young phenom, Clau Een, in the box, and he was a complete barri cade between the (?" ifr ' iocal heroes and Jmk " victory. And the visitors gener ally played in a much improved style. They did not make a field 'WJl&v ing error, and added to this they performed with consider able ginger in their movements. But oh! the game was a wearisome one; to wearying was it that the good work of the visitors was almost lost sight of. The weather was wretched; only 1,000 people present, and the plavingof the home fellows was very discouraging, to say the least ol it. It Was Very Muddy Going. Toe grounds were very bad and an error now and then was somewhat excusable. But the visitors acted like thorough going mud bones while the locals at times were iall- me all over themselves. During a good . portion of the game a drizzling rain fell snd time was called at one stage, but the un came out agaiu and it was so much the or the home players. .vin started in to pitch for the local ud sure enough his ill luck was so. His colleagues made some fla- rors, and he fieldeded his position iorly himself. These .hortcomings ?end in runs, and then the Colonels hit the ball and then Mambiis he bench and remained there at , ot the fourth inning a very sad is brief appearance in the box ere made 08 his delivery; lie seson balls; made two "wild 's pals made their four big went in to hold the fort at ij and did tolerably well. Left-Handed Faille. . -iTcry eflectively. He is a Iwt-hander and that Gleans he ifus a very difficult riddle for our sluggers to solve. The truth is he was too difficult. There were times when the et ball bothered him considerably, but when he got command of the sphere the local men could do very little with him. In the fourth inning he struck three men out in succession and ' that was quite a good performance. He is a good pitcher, but whether r not he will withstand the onslaughts of he League batters very long is another ueslion. The third inning was reached before the run getting started and then the visitors commenced it. Taylor started in the second hair with a base on balls and Weaver was out on a fly to Kelly, a very good catch by the way. Pfeffer knocked a grounder across the diamond toward Bierbauer, who was plaving near first bae. Beckley ran for the ball and Baldwin was late in starting to cover first base. As a result Beckley threw wild to Baldwin and Taylor reached third and Pieller got to second. Bassett next knocked an easy one to Shugart, who managed to get hold of the ball and drop it a am, Taylor scoring and Pfeffer reaching third and Bassett first. Baldwin added to the tun by making a wild pitch and Pfeffer scored. "Jennings made a two bagger to left and Bassett scored and then the rain came down and time was called. And the Fourth Inning Came Round. "When play was resumed the inning was finished without any more runs being made, but the fourth inning came and a quartette of tallies were counted. Tom Bronn started the fun this time. He knocked a grounder to Bierbauer, who fum bled the ball, and Thomas was safe. Tay lor's sacrifice sent Brown to second, and then three singles in succession by Weaver, Pfeffer and Barrett scored Brown and Weaver, and Pleffer scored on Barrett's steal of second. A wild pitch sent Barrett to third and he scored Whistler's single to left. A change was now made, and Millerwent to right field, Donovan retiring; Terry took Baldwin's place and Mack went behind the bat Clausen was the first man to face Terry, and he made a single to left. Brown lollo'wed with another in the same direc tion and Taylor forced Clausen out at third. Weaver knocked a fly, which Miller caught, and by good base running Brown scored on Pfclie'r's single to left center. The Colonels scored no more, but they had more than enoiich. The nome players made their first run in the fitth inning. 1 arrell started off with a single and Keily and Mack each got a base on ball, filling the bases. Browu made a brilliant catch ot Miller's flv and Farrell scored on Donovan's sacrifice. In the eichth inning Bierbauer led off with a single, reached second on Shugart's sacri fice and scored on Beckley's two-bagger to left.

The Pittsburg club has over-reached Itself In releasing Bums, as It -will find before many days have passed. It Is claimed here when the Chicago club was In the Smoky City on Its first trip President Temple called on Anson and secured Burns' release, which was granted only on condl tlon that a three-years' contract that wonld be absolutely binding and Indissoluble should be given to him. This Temple agieedto, and a contract was sent to Burns here. It was not satisfactory, and, being torn up, TBE was oonslgned to the waste basket. Barns and Jim Hart called on a looal lawyer and a contract fas drawn up that would Ijold in any court, t It amounted almost to a promis sory note Calling for 13,000 payable in month ly Installments daring a period of three years, winter and summer. The contract wes signed by Temple at President of the club. The Chicago olub officials declare that while the Pittsburg clnb remains solv ent it must pay every dollar due Barns, unless, of coarse, the latter consents to com promise. ' OFT TO CHICAGO. The Team lavea fop tbe West Xiatoft About the Bnrna Case. The local ball team will leave for Chicago this morning, and all the players will go with the probable exception of Terry. They will play two games at Chicago and two at Cincinnati. rir Terry does not go with the team Gumbert will go. Buns didnot put on his uniform yester dav, although he was at the grounds. His threats to go Into court on the matter or his release have no terrors for the club officials. They claim that It can easily be proven that he has violated his contract, and they also assert that testimony will be forthcoming that will not at all be palatable for Burns. There is also considerable indignation among local patrons of tho game at Jim Hart busying himself so much against the local club. He certainly has no license to in terlere in the matter. Der Boss Discouraged. St. Louis. July SO. Special. In letters to hl son Eddie President Von der Ahe ex presses himself as much discouraged at the poor showing tbe Browns are making. He says, however, that their loss of games Is not altogether due to poor playing. The club seen-s to have struck bad luck that clings to It. Games in which they outplay their oppqnents go against them by the merest circumstances of good fortune for the other side at critical slaies. Mr. Von der Ahe also says that bad umpiring de prived the Browns of tho It-inning tie game and the 1 to 0 came in Brooklyn. Ho says ho is still trying to strengthen tbe team, but finds it difficult to secure men who aro any better than those he now ha. He is nego tiating forthe services or "Buok" Ewing, of the Now Yorks. and hopes to get him. If Ewing is signed Mr. Von der Ahe intends making him captain and play him at second or third base.

Amid all the rain and heat Harry Stevens Is still on deck as chipper and original as ever. Tim Hcrst was very'severe on both Terry and Baldwin yesterday on balls and strikes. It is remarkable the nnmber of flagrant errors that arc made when Baldwin Is pitching. Kueh.ie could have signed with New York, but he wanted more money than they were willing to give. THE directors of the local Dill club held a formal meeting yesterday morning, and the changes made on Frldas were reaffirmed. "SnonTY" Fuller stole from third to home base In Wednesday's game while Catcher Weaver was returning tbeball to tbe pitcher. SUD Manager Powers: "There Is now In the New York team what has not been there before this season harmony. It was necessary to secure that belore team work could be expected.1' IT looks as If Chris Von der Ahe, will not be abl to serure the services of Joe Mulvev for the Browns. Wagner refuses to give him up and says he will have to play In Washington or not at all. ' Practice makes perfeet. The Loulsvllies are more skilled on the toboggan this s-ason than they were last. They have managed to get to the bot tom of the heap In a much shorter time. Courier Journal. Van Haltren's batting Jnly 26. 27. has not been surpassed this year. Nine times to bat, he made nine hits, with a total of 14, Including! double, triple and home run. and he Bcored fire times. Ills, batting average is .395. Jim Kjtowles. of the Providence Clnb, In a re cent game at Blnghamton. struck Catcher Wilson, of the Blnghamtons, in the face as he was crossing the plate with the winning run. It took. 2) police men to rescue Kuowles from the crowd. TnE Southern League directors had quite a squabble ovrr the official standing of the cluns, and Just how thev figured out the correct table is a problem that knocks a man out. The official totals show that there has been one more game lost than won. John Emmktt Skery. the crack fielder of the defunct Indianapolis ball team, will go to the New Orleans Southern League Club. He lias received an offerof 9200 a month and has wired back an ac ceptance. He left to-day to join tbe players at Atlanta, Ga. President Hart, of the Chicago club, has been In New York. "I he trouble with the game has not been so much with the patronage as with the expenses," said he. "For the past two years salaries and other expenses have run up to an ex tent that the game could not bear. As these are gradually reduced the game will again be placed on a paying basis, profitable alike to owners and play ers. 'I earns which have made a poor showing this season seem to forget that they had to fight against II or the strongest clubs they everficcd. With New York, as with" Chicago, the strengthening process always results In temporary failure, but they will bttth be heard from before tbe season closes." 5 Notes of the Amateurs. Ball games were scarce yesterday. ' THE County League games were stopped by the rain yesterday: TUEBIdgewood Bod and Gun Club, of tbe Sec ond ward.

Each of the winners used it, and during the pacing contest Geers, who drove the favor ite, Merry Chimes, changed over irom an ordinary large wheel sulky to the small rubber wheel, and with its aid won the sixth and seventh heats of a hotly contested race. Bonnie IWilmore, the favorite, had the pole, Miss Alice the outside, Pickpauiawas the contending horse in the first heat, but Alviu shook her off at the djstance and won in a great finish by a half length, with Miss Alice close up in third place. New York Central fought the next heat, but agaiu the isasy running rubber lire gave Alvin a scant length victory and in tho third heat. Miss Alice, who "had broken at the first turn, trotted a mile on the outside, coming the last half in 1:06 and out-trotting Alvin at the "wire, was only beaten by a short head. r A good field of 13 scored up for the pace. Merry Chimes was backed against tbe field, but Hal Dillard snapped two heats and the Chimes got one, but tne mile in 2:15 was hard on the 4-year-old, and Walnut Boy beat the game "grandson of Electioneer in two fast heats. In the seventh heat not until Geers shook up the Buffalo pacer, a few lengths from the wire, was tbe contest over. But for the crooked driving ol Hewey in the last event, everything this week went square and fair. Buffalo is the next point in the regular line.

Orrae only won the Sussex stakes at Goodwood, after a mighty struggle with Watorcress, a great 17 hand colt who improves rapidly. It was a repetition of the struggle with Orvleto and the Duko of Westminster lias been severely blamed for trying his colt again with the St. Leger race within measurable distance. It is now conclusive that Orme has not recovered his 2-year-old form. He is friendless at 6 to 4 against him lor the St. Leger and his posi tion in the betting market threatens to be come weaker."

A 'Western Authority Befera to the Home wood Frea-Por-AII Trot. The Borieman has the following to say about JobnK Turner and the recent free for-all trot at Homewood: At Pittsburg, in the wretched free-for-all exhibition the other day, tbe driving ot John E. Turner behind Bosalind Wilkes caused the judge much worry. The mare was favorite in the pools, but was beaten In one heat in 2::20- Dy Aline. The people could stand thl, but when Rosalind was again far in tho rear In 2:21 there was a vigorons "kick;" and Turner was taken out, and Collins, who was substituted, drove the raco out in taster time, though he failed to win. Of course, Turner escaped official wrath. He always does, and has Deen for yeais the most persistent and flagrant offender against up-and-up racing on the trotting tnrf. It is not creditable -to Grand Circuit tracks to reflect upon the longevity and all sufficiency of Turner's "pull." It was not, we believe, until a tew seasons ago that Judges ever presumed to interfere with Mr. Turner's ancient right to "lay up" race alter race until the melon was ilpe lor cutting. At Wahlngton, D. C, behind buisun, ho was suddenly informed that nnlest ho diovo to win there would be trouble. Later on, atone of tho home tracks at Philadelphia, the rod of discipline was waved above the "General's" green cap. As a matter of fact the trotting era that developedand tolerated tho system of which Turner is the most dar ing exponent ispassing away, and it cannot pass too soon. The better era requires that men give the. people honest and earnest races for their money, and it should prop erly be required of the driver and trainer not only that he drive to win when he staits, but that he bring his horse to the score fit. The man who tries to win mow? and avoid a record at the ms time Is linble to get in trouble when the rules nro strictly applied, and no reputable track can afford to have it said that any man, because of his promi nence, It exempt fiom the penalties pro vided for trotting trickery.

Mayor Washbnrno has vetoed the Powers race track ordinance passed at the last meeting of the Council. The Mayor takes the position that the issue of licenses to applicants who shall pay the necessary fee makes It impossible to close objectionable amusements without proving them nuisances by court proceedings. Not withstanding the voto Gaifielc Park people propose to continue the "Skates." The Tnrf. The grand circuit trotters will now shift to Buffalo. There Is talk of reopening the Elizabeth and Linden tracks this fall. Whev a man wins on a fluke you can't con vince him that he nasn't played the best horse In the race. TASCO will oe substituted for Delmarch in the mitch against Allerton at Darenport. la., next week. Delmarch is short ot work and Tasco is at an edge. The Russian Trotting Derby, for 3-vear-olds, purse 815,000 and distance two versts (a little over a mile and a quarter), was won on June 26 by the gray filly, Kallnka, in 3:41 (a 2:49 gait), beating 15 others. It is a bold move on the part of the Sturgis (Mich.) Fair Association to hang up ."O.CO0 to De trottci for at their meeting, which runs from Au gust 1 to August 0, Inclusive. Elaborate arrange ments have been made for this meeting, which Is undoubtedly the largest affair In the racing line ever uuderrakid by a town or the size of bturgts.

Kenney Hakes Two Great Swim ming Feats at Philadelphia. HE LOWERS DAVENPORT'S COLORS And Nearlj Iquls the World's Record for One Hundred Yards. GENERAL SPORTING SEWS OP THE DAT SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TBE DISPATCH. 1 Philadelphia, July 30. The Ameri can record for 100 yards and the world's rec ord for the mile were broken to-day by Arthur Thomas Kenney, of the Philadel phia Amateur Swimming Club, at the first annual swimming championship ot the At lantic Association of the Amateur Athletic Union. The races were held nnrter the auspices of the Philadelphia Amateur Swimming Club, and as it was well known that Kenney, as well as several others of the young athletes, was in line condition, A large number of people gathered along the shores, on both sides of the course, to witness and to cheer the men in their strug gles for supremacy. The course was along the Schuylkill river, at Lafayette, a short dislance above Flat Bock dam, and is the same one on which the races for the Childs cup were previously rowed. But two races were down on the programme to-day, but between these a special race across the river lor three club buttons donated by James H. Sterrett, of the P. A. S. C, was contested. The river was unusually low, not more than an inch of water falling over the dam. There was very little current and the men had no assistance from this source. There is a slight bend at the start for the mile and in consequence the start could not be seen by those at tbe finish. After the first quarter mile the course is straightaway and an ex cellent view ot the race could be seen lrom the high embankment. There was a large number of ladies present, many of whom went up the river to the start lor the mile and followed the swimmers. The 100-vard dash was the first event. There were six starters. Kenney won in one minute and nine seconds, the best previous American record was one minute and 15l seconds, made by W. C. Johnson, of the Manhattan Athletic Club, at Locust Grove, L. I., in 1890. Kenney's" record to day was within 2. seconds of the world's record, made in 1888 at London by Joev Nuttall. Kenney won the mile race in 27 minutes, 6 2-5 seconds,breaking the world's record, made by Horace Davenport, at Lon don, in 1877. Davenport's time was 29 minutes, 25 seconds. THEY HEED A TIMEE. A Want That the L. A. IV. Is Urged to Have Remedied. x In one respect the League of American Wheelmen Is sadly neglectful of the racing which it aspires to protect and foster. It has authorized the official existence of al most every character who could give stand ing to Its race meets with the single excep tion or a timekeeper. For all the League cares races might as well he timed by tho clock in St. Paul's at London. It effeots to be scrupulously paiticular, however, when records are presented to it for acceptance and passage, and in the light of this scrup ulousness it is all the more singular that It has not, llko the organization across the water, the N. C. II., one thoroughly tried official timekeeper and a corps of assistants. No one in England would dream of dis puting tbe time of a race as cam: lit nnd announced by Pembroke Coleman, but here hardly a fast time Is made but the judges, the timers, tho starters, and a pack at on lookers, who make it their special business to keep tab on the official timers, are In a wrangle almost the moment the winner crosses the tape, and there is always that uncertain feeling In the minds of the spec tators and the racing men as to whetbor the time announced is accurate or not. Phila delphia has set the ball rolling for official timekeepers, and thus far it Is thejoulv division In tbe Leasue that has made pro vision for the existence of such an official. It is understood that he receives a salary lor his services, nnd certainly he is entitled to compensation, for there is no work in connection with 'cycle raoing which de mands such delicate attention, such fair ness, and such impartiality. M'AULIFFE IW TRAINING. Ho Is Preparing to Do Better With Myer Than With Jadson. New Orleaks, July 30. Jack McAullffe, tho lightweight pugilist, has written a let ter fiom Bangor, Me., to President Noel, of the Olympic Club, In which he says: "I am training at Hampden, Me., 10 miles bejow Bangor and have been theie since the 1st or June. 1 leave here in about two weeks for Bay St. Louis, hoping to get there, some time about August 1. I am greatly obliged for your articles and hope to see you upon my arrival. I am at weight within two pounds) which will easily yield to this warm weather. I am strongand ambitious to wipe ouc the Judson draw with Myer. I hope the latter will be at his best when we meot. If he is yon and your patrons will see a fight worthy of your big purse. May suc cess attend your club." Goddard and mlth. Sax Frawcisco, July 30. Joo Goddard, tbe hard-headed Australian who walloped big Joo McAullffe last month, will be matched by the California club to knock out Billy Smith, also of Australia, in ten rounds. For doing this the club will pay him $1,250. God dard is sure to accept, as he is hungry for fighting. Smith has already signed. The date is August 23. Smith fought here soveial years ago with Jimmy Carroll, the Brooklyn heavy-weight. It was arranged that Carroll was to go our, but he worked the, double cross and paralyzed Smith's backers by knocking him ont. Smith is clever and he w 111 be back to stand Goddard's blows for ten rounds. Jim Williams, who failed to come to the scratch last Monday to meet Charley Tur ner, the colored slugger, has leturned to Salt Lake to nurse what he calls malaria. His manager is now sparring here to save a side bet of $1,000 which he put up. He claims Williams will sign to return in No vember. The conduct of Williams In con cealing his condition until tho eleventh hour caused much disgust. Knocked McAbee Oat. Chicago, July 30. Special Tom King, of Cincinnati, and Billy McAbee, of this city, fought to a finish early yesterday morning on the Indiana beach just over the State line. Accompanied by 200 sports they em barked on a small steamer at the lake front, reaohing their destination Just at daylight. A ring was hastily pitched, and the men stepped in to battle fur the stake of $250 a side. McAbee had decidedly the best or the mill for the first four rounds, bnt alter th it seemed to lose his head under the punish ment he was receiving. In tho beslnning of the firth round King knocked tho Chicagoan down and almost out. From that time until the ninth round King had matters all his own nay and lorced tho fighting, -which was furious and almost .brutal. Coming up lor the ninth round. King landed his left on McAbee's stomach, and following up his ad vantage with tbe right found the point of the Chlcagoan's Jaw, knocking him down and out. Dixon and Skel'y to Fight. New Orleans, Jnly 30.

Jimmy Carroll was notified to be in readi ness to train Skelly. Mill Fight Jem Smith, New York. July 30. A special cable dis patch from London says Joe Choynski has accepted the challenge of Jem Smith, tho English champion, and agrees to fight him either in England or America bo tore the club offering the largest purso. Won't Fight Van He-st. Chicago, July 30. Sptciai. It begins to look as though George Dixon wanted none of Johnny Van Heest's game. Yesterday George R. Clark telegraphed to Boston, ask ing for a match between the lads, offering to send backing for Tan Heest to the amount of $4,600. At th eame time he wired the Olympic Club at New Orleans, asking for a purs. To tbe latter telegram he received an answer that a purse of $5,000 awaited tbe men whenever they conld get togother. The Dixon party does not seem to want Van Heest at all. In the first place they are holding out for a purse of $7,500, and aro try ing to substitute Jack Skelly for Van Heest in the offor mado bv the Olympic Clnb. As Dixon's fight with Johnny Slurnlry is off he should be willing to meet Van Heest ut 118 pounds instead of Hunting up Skelly, who cannot get below 120 pounds. - CHAMPIONSHIP TENNIS. Edward I- Hall Ulna the Honor From His Brother, .Valentine. G. Five Close and Exciting Sets Necessary to Decide tho Boat. ' SouTHAMPTOjr, L. L, Jnly 30. Special Edward L. Hall defeated his brother Valen tine G. Hall to-day In the concluding match of tho tournament for the championship of Long. Island. At the end of the fourth set it was anybody's match, and when the score stood at 1, 5 and 6 games all in the last set the result was still in doubt. . L. Hall finally won at 8-0, but only after a match reflecting much credit on the skill and character of the contestants. It was a close contest, entirely on its merits, played In a most sportsmanlike manner. V. G Hall played the better tennis at the start, winning many strokes npon smashes to his brother's left and' bv means or good lobbing to the taso line. Th score was soon at 4-1, the elder Hall in tho lead. But E. L.llall noverplavs better than when he hits to make un uphill fight and he slowly and steadily tied the score, hut lost tho vant age game on hits out of court at critical ttmes. V. G. Hall had the vantage point lour times In the tenth game belore he could win the game which he finally did, score 6-4. E. L. Hnll meant strict business on tho second set and lie won rather easily at 6-1. parsing his brother many times. On tho third set-V. G. Hull began to hit the balls out ot tbe com t and as he grew wilder his brother apparently gtew more accurate. The rallies on each game of this set were long nnd hardfonght, bnt, E. L. Hall usually made tbe winning noint, taking the set nt 6-1, the same score as the previous one. V. G.Hall took the lourth set C-L on superior volleying. The fifth and last set kept the spectators in gieat excitement until the close, the audience cheering both men nt the conclu sion. The scores were as follows: Summary Men's single championship round Edward L. Hall, challenger, beat Valentine G. nail, holder, 4-6, 6-1, 6-1, 1-6, 8-0. Horey tht Champion of Canada.

A man interested In the County League said yesterday: "Well, anyone could play good ball at Athletic Park; they have the finest Held and accommodations in Western Pennsylvania: no wonder the Wllklnsburger's are so enthusiastic over their ball team." Manager Swift has arranged for tho W. A. A.'s to no to East Liverpool next Thursday nnd Friday to p'ay the. Eclipse team, who will return and cross bats with the W. A. A.'s at Athletic Park, Wilkinsburg, on Saturday, August 6.
