ff THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, MONDAY. AUGUST " 23., 1892.- HE EARTHJCLAIMED By Third Party Leaders, "Who Are Expecting to Carry All the Sections JBOM MAINE TO OEEGON. They Can't See Where Old Parties Can Get a Corporal's Guard TO VOTE FOR THEIR CANDIDATES, The South to Ee Split All to Pieces and I the West Wrecked. EXTBUSIASH OF PEOPLE'S PAETI1TES rTROM X STAFr COBBESPOVDEXT.2 Washington, Aug. 2L I have jusl gone over with X. A. Dunning, editor of the Rationa? Watchman, the organ of the People's party, the work that ' hat been inne and that is being done in the third party movement in the various States, and I fancy the wide swath they claim to be cutting will surprise even those who have tried to keen pace with events as they have been announced fr.oin day to day as they Lave occurred. It may be interesting to group in a single statement the work up to this time of the party that is calming no little anxiety to the leaders of both the old parties, t Beginning in the far Southwest: Uugett has been nominated for Governor in Texas, a complete electoral ticket has been chosen, and candidates for Congress have been or will be nominated in every district, w ith a fair prospect of carrying several districts, the old Mills district among them, as An-jt- tony, the" successor of Mills, had but 310 if majority. & The result of the recent State election in f. Alabama leads the new party manasers to ".. expect pretty near a clean sweep in that ' i State. There will be a complete Con , gressional ticket and an electoral ticket has been chosen. Old General ".Toe" "Wheeler, who got Tom Watson investigated to such - poor purpose, has already acknowledged Vi hinielt beaten, and has withdrawn. Colonel t Herbert, of the Second district, has fol lowed suit, and there is a strong proba bility that Judge Oates will drop out also. J Mutes in lln- nnth Counted 'n. Mr. Dunning counts confidently on the election of every Congressman in Alabama ' br the People's party. It is expected that Kolb, who ran for Governor, wiil run for Congress in the Oates district. The Arkansas election takes place on the Sth of September, and it is expected that the effect of the Alabama election ill as sist to rive the People's party a great im petus there. Candidates have been nomi nated lor Congress in exery district, electors have been named and a leader named Cart nahan lias been nominated for Governor, with a complete State ticket. If, as is ex pected, the State ticket and a share of the Congressmen are elected, or if a bic vote is eiveu for the State ticket, the moral cllect on Georgia will be tremendous, it is assert ed, and inthatcae a clean sweep is counted on in the latter State. A fight to the death is being waged in Georgia, where "William L. Peck has bf eh nominated for Governor, with a complete State Congressional End electoral tickets. Everything that can -be thought of is being done to deTeat Tom Watson, who is blamed lormuthot the discontent with the Demo cratic party in the South. Forty outside speakers, beside the best talent in tiie State, have been imported, and the district has been ttumped from schoolhoiue to schoolhouse, and from larm to larm, but Mr. Watson is thought to be inviccibie. Florid to He wpt Clean. Pretty nearly a clean sweep is expected in Florida, where Congressional and elec--rtal tickets are in the field. In South Carolina a similar state of things exists, except that there is a State ticket, and the CAnvass lor Governor is so hot that riots are narrowly averted at nearlr every meeting. Governor Tillman, who ran two years aso as a mixed Democrat and Alliance candi date, is now the avowed candidate of the People's partv, and will be elected, it i as serted, ylmost bevond a doubt, with a sprinkling of Congressmen and the electoral " ticket. In .North Carolina, State, Congressional and electoral tickets are in the field, Dr. Exum, one of the foremost men in the State, being the nominee lor Governor. In Virsrinia no State ticket is to be elected, but complete Congressional and electoral tickets will be put in the field. A thorough organization has been eflected. Following the meeting of the Sta'c Com mittee i counties were organized in one week. In West Virginia. Huston has been nomi nal ed for Governor, aid State, electoral and Congressional tickets will be named. Governor Iindia' an's "Wilkover. In Tennessee Goernor Buchanan has heen indorsed by the People's party, State and electoral tickets are up, and Congress ional candidates were nominated in every district with the posible exception ot that one n w represented by Pierce, who has tiei-n renominated and who is a creat lavor Ite with the third party people. Several Congre.smen are expected Ho in this State. Kentucky elects no State ticket, but a Congressional and electoral ticket will be Tint np and the parry expect to make a break in the Congressional delegation. A great fight is being waged in Missouri over State, Congressional and electoral tickets, with L. G. Leonard as the People's party candidate lor Governor. Two or three Congressmen are counted on from this State. In Mississippi it is expected that General Hooker and Private Lewis will be sup- l planted by People's party"Congressmen. lln -Uarylanrt candidates lor Congress will be nominated in every district except those Baltimore, in Louisiana the election ot two Congressmen is confidently predicted. irimmlrg Up the" hollil South. To sum up the Southern States, complete Congressional tickets ill be nominated in every one except Maryland. Victories are counted on for State, and where State offi cers are to be elected, electoral tickets, in Jcxas it the Democratic split be not healed, and in Alabama, Arkansas, Flor ida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Caro lina and Tennessee, with a large proportion o; the Congressmen and every one of th Legislatures, with Congressmen here and there from the other States, with a consider able portion of each of the Legislatures, if not the majority in each. Coming to the Northern States, Mr. Dun ning claims that Kansas, Nebraska, Colo laio, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho and Nevada will all be taken out of the Repub lican line as regards the electoral and State tickets that is, those which elect the latter with most of the Congressmen, and a ma jority in the Legislatures. Even Oklahoma and Indian Territories have been organized, and, it is claimed, will send People's party delegates to Congress. In Oregon, Washington, California, Wis consin, Iowa, Minnesota, Michigan.Illinois, Indiana and Ohio a thorough "organization has been or will be speedily effected, and electoral and Congressional candidates put up where they have not been already. Governors nominated in the States men tioned are Llewellyn in Kansas, Van AVyck in Nebraska, Cannon in California, and Ignatius Donnelly in Minnesota. f-reat G.iln Kxp c'rd Id Kansas. In Kansas, Davis, Baker and Simpson, now representing the People'i party in Con gress, have been renominated and will be re-elected, while it is expected thai Fan ston's and one or two other districts may be captured, with the State and electoral tickets. A tremendous movement is reported from the West and Northwest. President Lourch, of the Alliance, from South Dakota, who has been in the city for several days, says there is such an uprising as no one could conceive of without he was in it Coming east, three or four Congressmen are expected from New York, and nomina tions will be made in every district except those of New York City. A branch of the St Louis headquarters will be opened within a few days in New York to take care of the New England and the Middle States. Congressmen will be nominated in the Nineteenth and Twenty-fourth districts of Pennsylvania; in Connecticut they expect to capture the balance of power in the Leg islature; New Hampshire. Massachusetts, Maine and New Jersey will all be worked. Thirty clubs are now organized in New Hampshire and manr in Massachusetts. In Maine electoral and Congressional tickets have been nominated and two Con gressmen named. El en rw rTy to Oet In tine. It is expected that one Congressman will be captured in New Jersey. Of course the great vote is expected from the South and West, but so surprising a showing is anticipated, not only in those sections, but in the Eastern and Middle States, this year as to place the new partv on a footing that will give it an even chance with the old parties in State elections in the near future, at the next Congressional election in 1894 and at the next Presidental election in 1896. "These may be thought to be extravagant claims," said Mr. Dunning, "but all I ask you to do is to compare them with the re turns from the November and previous elections. I predict you will say that the half has not been told. The attendance and enthusiasm at our meetings are marvelous. They far exced those of the old parties in this" respect. Why, I spoke the other day in thc'irginia district where Meredith i's a candidate for Cong.-ess. I had n tremendous audience, and a lew davs atterwarn, when Meredith spoke, he had only between 200 and 500. Over oa the 'Eastern slope' re cently one of our speakers hail upward ot 1,000 "in that sparsely settled country, and a lew davs afterward Senator Gibson, of Maryland, held a meeting at the same place and had less thau 100. It is so all over. Thev want no more of the old par ties. ' ' The oV,Jct of Flatfnrm Talk. "What do we talk about? The money question and transportation. We tell our sneaker to let the tariff and the force bill alone. If we can get money of the proper kind and sufficient volume and transporta tion and communication under proper con troltlie tariff and iorce bill questions will take care of themselves. Our speakers have been drilled lor years, and they are not alraid to meet any man in the country on the issues which we put forward. Down in Florida the other dav a boy, of 19 years fnirlv drove Senator Call from the rostrum. he used him up so badly in debate. The force bill? Why, you begin to shake the force bill issue in the face of our people in the South and thev simplv laugh at you. Thev are not afraid of negro domination." "But will thev not count vou out, as it is claimed they did Kolb the other day in Al abama?" I asked. "Why, my dear fellow," was the reply, "two can plav at that game. Let them try it. If they do, we sl.all have a shotgun policy in dead earnest. Our people know something about that business. They have helped to count the negroes out in other days, and know how it is don. But let anvbody trv to work that game on them, and powder and cold lead will prevent all usurpation, and the Federal Government will be called upon to settle the matter in the courts. Money Coming in From thwPeop'a. "That is the kind of a force bill we will employ. But I don't think they will at tempt anv such outrage'. In this case it will not be white man against negro, but white man against white man, and I think if the negro takes anv part in the fight it will be on the side of those who, no matter what sins they have committed iu the past, are now determined to have a free ballot and a fair count throughout the whole South or know the reasou why. 'Where do we get our money? The money comes in small sums from the people who are going to do the voting. Among the farmers certain acres of wheat and corn, or other products, are planted for the bene fit of the party, and the proceeds will be given to pay campaign expenses. I will entureto say that 10,000 acres of wheat are devoted this vear to the party's caue. AVherc can you findthecounterpart of that? Not since the davs of the crusades has such exalted enthusiasm been shown in any cause. I tell yon, you can't crush a move ment which has such supporters." DEOWNED AT LONG BEANCH. A Yonng s,ian Cnrrliil Aw-iy br a Breaker t ll -In Ttatlitps. Loxa Branch, Aug. 2L Special Frank McKenna, the 19-year-old son of ex Commander Thomas McKenna, of this place, and a graduate of the Lehigh Uniier sity, at Bethlehem, Pa., was drowned while in bathing at the Atlantic Hotel grounds this afternoon. Frank, together with his brother Thomas, had gone in bathing. He was struck by a big breaker which almost strangled him, and before lie recovered he was carried seaward. Finding it was im possible to save himself the now almost ex hausted bather called for help. The young man's cry was answered by his brother and the bathing master. Belore they could reach him, however, he hid anlc, and Thomas had to dive after him twice before he succeeded in finding him. Among the crowd at the beach was the young nnn's father and sister, and strong arms had to hold the father from jumping into the surf. RDSSIA HAS A LABOR RIOT. S'eel Rail Workers Fire Houses, riunder tli Factory nnd 1) mo fsh Works. St. PETEnsnttBG, Aug. 21. A serious labor riot occurred yesterday at Ekaterin lav. Workmen employed in Mr. Hughes' steel rail lactory set fire to a number of workmen's dwellings, plundered the fac tory and had begun to demolish the fur naces when a military detachment that had been summoned arrived on the scene. A sharp encounter then took place be tween the troops and the workmen, and several persons were killed and a largs number wounded before the riot was sup pressed. The damage done to property is so great that it will take three months to cflect repairs. A BIG C0NT2ACT CAPITJEED. Americans to Build a Million-Dollar Market at Lima, Pern. San FuANCISCO, Aug. 2L Special News comes from Lima, Pern, thai the firm of Itix & Birrill, of this city, has secured the Government contract for rebuilding a grand market at the Peruvian capital, to cost between 5800,000 and 51.TOO.000. The architect is A. Page Brown, of San Francisco, who has designed an ornamental structure, with spacious colonades below and loggias around the tower. This contract is noteworthy as the first which au American firm has secured in Peru in years. A Crisis In Buenos Ayr-. LONIKW, Aug. 21.

JACK ROBINSON BUSY Preparing for the State league Con vention at Williamsport TO TAKE PLACK SEPTEMBER 28. Hi Talks in a Breezj Way of State and National Politics and INTRICACIES OP THE NEW BALLOT LAW rSPKCIAI.TTXJ'.ORAM TO TnE nMPATCIt.1 Philadelphia. Aug. 2l "The State League of Republican clubs will meet in convention at Williamsport, September 28, and I am in the city to send out the proper circulars giving that date along with other matters," said Congressman John B. Robin son, at the Lafayette Hotel, this evening. "It will be a larger convention than last year, a id the various clubs will have a big share in the Presidental campaign." Congres-man Kobinson came down from Highland Lake to-day, and is here for work. He said that the Republican League Club headquarters at Thirteenth and Chest nut streets will be open regularly after this week, and everything is a go from to-day-Among those who met him this evening was General Charles L. Leiper, whose son was but recentlv appointed to a ca'ietship in the Annapolis Naval Academy through his in strumentality. "Are you a candidate for re-election as President ot the State,Leagne?" "I am a candid rite in the sense that there is no other candidate in the field," was'the Congressman's reply. "I know of no op position and have heard ot none. Mayor Stuart has assured me that he is not on the list, nor has he at any time considered the subject. This removes the only doubt in the situation, and leaves the clear course my lriends most desire. Yr- nt Meiribenlil of ther..acn. "There were 200 clubs represented last year at Scranton, and this year there will be more. A number of clubs, it will be re membered, paid dues more than a year ago, and our Executive Committee, which is comprised ot a member from each of the 28 Congressional districts, will unquestionably allow all clubs admission to the convention who paid dues last year. Many of the" clubs have quietly elected delegates and forwarded the customary notice, but there is really no contest anywhere in sight. "The State League will be a valuable aux iliary to Chairman Reeder's work in this State. The convention at Williamsport meets in the new Opera House, one of the best appointed buildings ot its kind in the country. The National Convention meets September 15, but the Pennsylvania dele gates to that body were elected last year. On the list ot Speakers for the Williams port Convention appears the names of Gen eral John M. Clarkson, Governor McKin- ley, WhitelaA Reld, ex-Speaker Thomas B. Reed, ex-Goietnor J. B. Foraker and Con gressman Charles A. Boutellc. Iroub . .bnnt th New Hnllot Law. Congressman Robinson referred incident ally to the new Baker ballot law as "an in strument but little understood. Unless the voters are thoroughly educated up to its various provisions it will cause a great deal ot trouble," he ad 'ed. "and explanation cannot begin too soon on that score. I hon estly believe the vote will not be even with the vote ot a Presidental year, unless the public grasp the details better than is now apparent. General Reeder and Secretary ot State Harrity are likelvto come together on some agreement by which the new law will be better interpreted than it is now, 'and in such event the process of education will be defined along a general line, and not be so awlully mixed up as seems now to be the case. "I find very intelligent men very much at sea respecting what the terms of the Baker law really mean, and where vou come across such a state of things there Is just cause for alarm touching the voters generally. I was about six weeks iiv finding out what the law meant myself, and I helped to pass it. As it now stands there is plenty ot annoyance and trouble ahead for both sides, and if the provisions are carried out to the letter the vote wijl be below expectations." K blnso-i Thinks Harilann Will "Win. "Yfovr do you view President Harrison's chances?" '"The national campaign has hardly be gun, and in fact does not appear to be be yond the usual preliminaries, but it mar be a very even thing all through. Both sides are waiting to play on the mistakes of the leaders, and the recent Gorman-Vest venture to bring Dana and the force bill forward at an issue and Dana's direction to goto Senator Hill as the proper person to appeal to for advice on the subject is quite funny, to say the least. It shows that Chairman Harrity has either a divided National Commiitee to deal with or hesi tates to take up the Cleveland tnriff reform idea as the direct and sole topic for this year. "Again, while West Virginia, North Caro lina and Tennessee are wavering in the Democratic column, the West presents some interesting features. The Farmers' Al liance is an unknown quantity, and intro duces doubts and distrust rather confusing to old-timers. General Harrison has made a good President. His vigorous foreign policv, along with Republican pledges ful filled in the McKinley tariff bill, are ex cellent playing cards, and his chances are not of the misty kind. Bedford Springs has been quite a political center this sum mer and I found sentiment there inclined largely to the belief that President Harri son was a sure winner." Congressman Robinson goes to Media to morrow and expects to devote his energies to Republican hustling right along now. He is in dandy fighting trim, and as Presi dent of the State League has a big army of young Republicans at his back. CONFIDENT OF HIS STATE. West Virginia's Attorney General Certain th Dsmncrat TV HI Win Oat There. New York," Aug. 2L Special Alfred Caldwell, Attorney General of West Vir ginia, who has been in the city for several days, left for his home in Wheeling yester day. Before his departure, he was inter viewed regarding the political situation in his State. "It is useless," said Mr. Cald well, "to attempt to conceal the fact that i West Virginia is a close State. It is equally nndeniable'that it is normally Democratic. At recent Presidental elections the Repub licans have struggled desperately to capture our electoral vote, but have failed, as they will again tilts year. In 1888 we beat them by 506 plurality. I have many reasons for confidence that Cleveland's majority over Harrison will be very 'much larger next November. "The Republicans will of course fight very hard. There will also be a large negro vote of workmen imported from the black belt into a section where there is much rail road construction. Their State ticket is very inferior to that in 1888, when General Got! was a candidate for Governor. Thomas E. Davis, ot Grafton, the present nominee, is not capable of making a vigorous and popular canvass. On the other band, the Democratic nominee, W. A. McCorkle, is a vigorous campaigner and a popular man. West Virginia Democrats understand that they must fight to hold their State, and they will win, because thev will spare no reason able or proper effort. '' CLOSE OF A B1TTEE CAMPAIGN And All the Candidates L!v to See Elec tion Day pproarlilne:. Laurens, S. G, Aug. 21. The South Carolina campaign closed here yesterday. Contrary to expectations all the candidates live, though many of their friends bear wonnds as the result of yesterday's meeting. The feeling was intense, and the-, orowd of 2,000 was in a fighting humor. When Tillman took the stand, after several speeches had been made, a riot was precip itated between several soore of the two factions. Sticks and clubs flew through the air, and for ten minutes the fighting was vicious and -vigorous. Pistols were drawn by the outsiders, but the actual participants iii the fight contented themselves with the use of clubs and fists. Every man on the outside waited for the other fellow to fire first. The speakers witnessed the fight from (he stand with much interest and some fear that shooting might be commenced. When the rioters stopped fighting from actual ex haustion the meeting proceeded, but the speeches were temperate. Governor Till man ninde no reply to the denunciations Colonel Yotimans had heaped upon him at Newberry Thursday, and Colonel Youtuaris, at the request of citizens desirous of avoid ing any more bloodshed, did not speak at alL Eleven Candidates for One Place. YotJNGSTOWir, Aug. 2L SpeciaL A call has been issued for the Democratic Congressional Convention in the Eighteenth district, to be held at Alliance on Tuesday, September 6, and the indications are that the session will be the liveliest ever held in this section of the State. At the present time there are 11 candidates hustling for the honor of meeting Morgan, the Republican candidate. Mahoning rounty has two can didates, Columbiana four, and Stark county hve. Lesser Work of the L'-iderg. Magistrate C S. Bates, of Harrod's Creek, Ky., lias been nominated for Congress in the Fifth district by the People's party. The Tennessee Republican Executive Com mittee organized Saturday. A proposition was made to-tlio Democratic State Execu tive Committee for a joint campaign and discussion between Winsted, Republican nominee for Governor, and Turney, the Democratic nominee, which was declined. ANOTHER LABOR . OUTBREAK. Wisconsin Iron Strlk. rs Assault Two Work man, Killintr One and Mortallv Wound ing the Other Th Dead Body Dragged Awiiy Iron Workers Being Arrested. Scterior, Wis., Aug. 21. For days the strikers at the steel works here have been prophesying "developments." When asked if the strike was not ended, as a matter of fact, their places having been filled, they have replied, "wait and see." No partic ular attention has been paid to- these threats, the guards about the mills be ing really withdrawn. At 11:30 o'clock last night Andy Gardner and J. W. Jones', two members of the Amalgamated Association who deserted the stiikers and returned to work, started to walk to the sfeel plant division ot the city, five miles from West Superior. Just a3 they reached the Northern Pacific tracks, midway on their journey, at a dark and un frequented plaoe, they were attacked by 15 men, supposed to be the Amalgamated crowd. Five shots were fired and clubs and knives used lreely. Before the police arrived the assailants disappeared in the darkness. Jones was cut and beaten until insensible. Gardner is missing, and a telephone message Iroin the plant at 1:30 A. BL says he is un doubtedly dead. A pool ot blood was found where he had lain, and indications on the ground point to his being dragged off. Amalgamated men are being arrested as fast as found, Manager Mattes swesring out warrants. Seven are thus far found. Jones is still unconscious and may die. REVOLUTION BY DYNAMITE. The President of Bolivia Declnrwi the Re public In State of Siege. Valparaiso, Aug. 21. News from Bo livia reports the discovery of several cases ot dynamite cartridges and ammunition in the Custom House at La Paz. The dis covery has, created intense excitement, and President Baptista has issued a proclama tion, stating that it has been deemed neces sary to declare the whole republic in a state of siege and to continue the same, as the Government is fully aware of Caniacco's intention to create a revolutionary move ment. A very uneasy feeling exists throughout the entire republic, and there are many partisans of Camacho ready to act at Corocoro, Arabranco, La Par aud Arica. Despite the Governments claim ot quietude, there is a strong undercurrent in favor of revolt, and well-informed people declare that Baptista's seat is very insecure. CANADA TAKf-H BY SURPRISE By the President's Proc amstlon, Bnt Will Probably Not Glvo In. Ottatva, Ost., Aug. 2L The intelli gence that President Harrison issued his proclamation against Canada created no lit tle excitement here. The members of the Government, with the excep tion of the Postmaster General, the Minister of Railways and Canals and the Minister of Agriculture, are out of town. None of the Ministers here are disposed to express auy decided opinion at present as to what action Canada will take, now that the American "Soo" canal is to all intents and purposes closed to Canadian vessels owing to prohibitory duties. President "Harrison's action was totally unexpected. Judging from the undercur rent of feeling displayed in official circles the Canadian Government will likely not yield. It is surmised that a lull meeting of the Cabinet will be held at an early date to consider the situation. MAY LOSE ITS RIVER. The Mississippi Cutting a New Channel Sllles Away From Natchez Cincinnati, Aug. 21. Special River men who have just come up the Mississippi river say that Natchez is threatened with a serious danger. During the recent high water a new channel was cut across the peninsula two or three miles from Natchez, and the water is still pouring through. If a cut-off should prove permanent, the river will empty into a lower outlet of Lake Concordia, in which case it would probably cut through back of Vidalia, Ark., leaving Natchez miles from the river. There is great alarm at Natchez, and the citizens are clamorous for work to begin 'to save the river for the town. COLD-BLOODED ASSASSINATION. A Brave Texas Sheriff Shot In the Back by nn Unknown Murderer. Brownstille, Tex., Aug. 21. 8. A. Brito, Sheriff of Cameron county, was assassinated at 2:30 this morning while returning from a fandango jnst outside the city. Brito was in a, carriage on his way home accompanied by two of his deputies. Shortly after they started, some person or personsTode np behind the carriage and fired shots through the 'leather curtain at the back. Both struck Brito, killing him instantly. He was well known on the froutier as a terror to evil doers, and as such made 'many enemies among the criminal classes. There is no clue to the murderer. Another Atlantlo City Body Recovered.

Both teams are playing great ball, and Manajer Ward was never more anxions in his life to win games than at present It is well understood that clnbs are extremely eager to win the second pennant so as to get a whack of the games, for the world s championship. This is a very im portant feature in the estimation of Presi dent Byrnes and Manager Ward. It is likely that Haddock will 'pitch tor the visi tors to-dav. and Ehret lor the home team. Haddock and Ehret are both great pitch ers aud are apparently jnst in their prime. Writing about pitchers an Eastern authority says: "The pitchers are learning from ob servation that their days on the" diamond are limited it theycan do nothing else but pitch. When their arms grow weak and they can no longer deceive the heavy hit ters, they mnst retire from the diamond. Only one" of the men who pitched in 1876, when the League came into existence, is playing in the box to-day, and only one of the 18 who occupied the box for an Associa tion club in the first year of its existence, is now able to pitch winning ball, and he is Tony Hullane. The Association came into existence in 1882 and Mullane's cotempo raries then and now are Galvin, Keefe, Welsh and Ward. Galvin is with St. Louis, Keefe is with Philadelphia, Ward has be come the managing captain of the Brook- lyns and Welsh has been relegated to the Troy club. "There are men still playing ball who were at one time pitchers, but they saw the necessity of doing something beside merely pitching a balk Tip O'Neill of Cincin nati, was a New York twiricr when Von der Ahe first signed him and Comiskey trained hinrinto an outfielder. Under this captain Caruthers and Footz also got their training. Halliday, the Cincinnati outfielder, began his career as a pitcher for tiie St. Josephs in 1885. Corkhill, now retired, Captain Te beau, of Cleveland, and Van Haltren, of Baltimore, have also tried their hands as pitchers. Mike Tier.ian was considered a left-handed twirler when he signed with the New Yorks, and Elmer Smith, one of Pitts burg's players, sought honors on the dia mond as a pitcher."

Sam Keys Tf on m Good Bet on Bal Pointer's Bljf Performance. Chicago, Anjr.21. cTpecfot "When, years ago, I first went with the trotters," said a middle-aged man at Washington Park yes terday, "it was no uncommon thing to see all the horses in the air at the same mo tneut, and the horse trotting three heats without a break was indeed a wonder. Yet, nowadays, the horse lea vine bis feet Is the odd one, which goes to show that the trot tins horse will soon be a thoroughbred." Sam Keys, of Pittsburg, Is one of the old time trotting turfmen visiting Chicago. Never was there a more popular old man than the same "Uncle Sam,' v, ho forfaanv years "fished" along to victory the famous old gray pacing mare, Lucy. In many a hard-fought split heat race Mr. Keys took down the money, and the public loved to back a choice who was always "trying." Lucy was one of the famous qnartet consti tuting tho "Big Four," the others being Sleepy Tom. Mattie Hunter nnd Kowdy Boy. It was thought that the first two named pacers ontclaised the gray mare, and her price was always 15 to 1 at the start of the race. But one day at Buffalo she won the first beat In 2:14 (her record), and then she be came the lavorlte at 100 to 30, only to be beaten finally by Sorrel Dan. Mr. Keys then said: "It any pacer goes the first part of a race fast he must die the finishing heats. Jnst as surely as where the first half of a mile is fast the other will be slow. Lucy Is no gnmer than manv other horses, only she lavs away at first only to finish strong." Lucy is dead years ago, but Colonel Sam Keys is as cnipper as may be, and that lie is no pessimist Is shown by his wager o $500 at even money that Hal Pointer would beat the 2.0b ol Johnslon. ' 'Piocessions' wont do to catch the pub lie," said a turf Clitic at Washington Park. I mean that when the trotters contest In races there is scarcely such a thing known as a hotly fought out finish. Oh, yes, some times two and possibly three horsesaro head and head at the wire, but when did you ever see five or six comln-r 'heads on' at the last eighth. Then even If two horses finish to gether, where are the others Strung out like a string of herrings, ain't theyt Is there a way tcfremedy this I think so. What's the matter with handicapping trotters by putting weight on the sulky. You can stop anything with weight "Then 'classes' would be unknown after horses gained records, and there would bo a chance for such animals as get a certain mark and are not able to beat it to win a race occasionally. "Isn't the matter worth looking into? I should say so." WHAT WILLIAMS SAYS. Ha Denies That Mailer Had a Barroom Bow 'With Hnll. CnrcAoo.Aug.21. .srfo7. Tom Williams, the Australian welter-weight champion, whoso arrival in this country is likely to cieate a fistic sensation, lenorts Jim Hall as fitting himself in xnperb shape for his con test with Ted Pntchard next Monday. Williams, too, gives the lie to the cabled story of a fracas between Hall nnd Peter Manor. Under date of August 4 the Aus tralian star writes to a friend of his now here as follows: Looton; Aug. 4. " Dear Jack Yonr letter received, but have no new particulars, only that I am Just up out uf bed again and hope to be well again In another week or two. 1 would not advise vou to make a match for me yet, a I have bad a very bad time.

I will try and get over to see the big flghta wltn Hall afier his fight. What you ask about Peter Maher and II ill and the rest of the story is not true. Maher has never been in England, and Jim Hall has beet keeping to his work like a brick. He Is well and Jnst at weight He can fight strong at 11 stone 6 pounds. I see Dawson won from Needham. Best regards from Choynski. Yours sincerely. Tom Williams. The gentleman who received the above is an Australian sportsman of no mean note and undoubted stamina In backing an opinion once formed. He announces his readiness to wager $5,000 that Williams, when matched, will win against any man of his weight In America. There will have to be a hnstle when the antipodian crack reaches those shores. -DIXOIT AND WAVLUTS AT WOSK. How Each Trains for the Coming Battle at New Or'eans. New Orleans, Aug. 2L The fighters train ing across the lake are all well. Dixon Is quartered at a pleasant summer hotel, and Is enjoying the salt water bathing and the tramping around in the sand, which he says strengthens his legs. Ho was Onjy half a dozen pounds over-weight when he came down here, and has trained down to US Jiounds. Ho will develop himself now by nmpinir, and may even take on a few pounds. He expects a short fight, but in order not to be taken by surprise is training for an all night affair. News from Bay St. Louis is conflicting. Theieare stories of drinking and neglect, but these the men indignantly deny. McAu- lino was never ionu or wore, ana wnen ne has to train Is not pleasant about it; but he puts in a good deal of walking, hng-pnnohlng aud boxing with Nelson and others, and is right in line with the weight limit.

A PIECE OF A EACS30NE Snccessfallv Cat Ont of a New Castlo Pa tient by a Plttsbnrer Snnre-on. New Castle, Aug. 21 l&pecia . The most difficult surgical operation ever attempted In this section was successfully accom plished by Dr. Thomas McCann, of Pitts bnrg.asslsted by half a dozen local surgeons, yesterday. Ten days ago Thomas Todd, Jr., a well-known glass blower of this city, while in camp near Pnlnski took a dive into the Shenango river fro;ri the bank. Tho water was not more than two feet deep, and his head struck a rock. He wns taken from the water in an unconscious condition, placed on a hand cur .and bronght to bis home in this city. Sincn theu he has been paralyzed from the neck down, there not being tbe slightest sensation in his arms, legs or body. Tho operation consisted In removing a portion ot his backbone. It was found that the sixth vertebra was badly fractured and that the broken bono was pressing against the spinal column, thus causing the paraly sis. Dr. McCann and the physicians made a gash six inches in length Jnst over the spinal column, laying bare the bone. Abont half the vertebra was removed and the Dre-suro of the spinal cord relieved. Todd came out of the operation nicely, and in hair an hour could distinguish when his hands or feet were touched. The phvsicinns nro hopeful that he wilrultimately recover. Tne opera tion was exceedingly peillous, ns n slip of the knife a hair's breadth would nave meant instant death to the patient. HE GOT HIS BEDCLOTHES. The Doctor Took Ills Property Away Fnm tho Queen of the Cooleys. Uniontown, Pa Aug 2L A curions story hasjust come out connected with theCooley gang. Some weeks ngo Dr. W. A. Longa necker, of Fair Chanco, lost a lot of bed clothing, stolen by someone who entered his house during his absence at nignc A few days ago the doctor was summoned to attend Lida Tastorions, the mistress of Frank Cooley. She is called the "Queen of the Coolevs." The girl is handsome, linrdy and brainy enough to help direct the movements of the gang. Dr. Longanecxer was unable to at tend her, but sent his assistant. Dr. Collier. When Collier entered Miss Pastorions room the first thing he saw wnsap eceof Dr.Long anecker's bedclothlng spread oer the sick "qneen" and the rest of the goods piled on a stand In the room. Upon his return he In formed Dr.Lo,nancckerof his discovery, and they both went to see the Pastorions girl on the following day. After attending to the patient Dr. Longn nerkoraaid that the bedclothes in the room belonged to him, and lie began to gather them up.
