He Failed to Fool the Bean Eaters and They Took the Game. Boston-, Sept.12. Special' "With a rat tling fire of base hits the Bean Eaters rushed upon the sturdy repre sentatives of Pittsburg to-day, and in two short innings regained the sec ond place in the baseball fight After Mark Baldwin had been tortured until life was a burden in these two innings, Ehret took his place and a mighty change came over the spirit of the champions' dreams. Hits were scarce, and runB were even scarcer. Bar ring those first two innings it was a tie game, and a struggle which was well worth v atching. There was some wonderful fielding by players on both sides. Bierbauer, Nash and Quinn especially distinguished them selves. Joe Kelly's Cambridge friends were out in force, and when he stepped up to the bat in the third inning he received a handsome cold watch and a big floral piece as evidence of their good opinion of him. Kow They Lost 'econd P-ace. This is the manner in which the Pitts burgs lost second place, as has been stated: Mark Baldwiu's efforts ended in disastrous failure. Long opened with a single, and got to second on Shugart's fumble ot Mc Carthy's hit, but was "caught in an attempt to steal third. The latter stole second, and then the fun began. Duffy and Ganzel picked out singles, and Nash got in a two-bagger, everybody else scoring. Nash scored a minute later on Tncker's single, after Bier bauer had attended to Lowe. Long started in again ana was safe on Farrell's ramble. McCarthy and Duffy hit safely and the bases were filled. Ganzel sacrificed and Long scored, and then Nash again cleared the bases with a three bagger. This time Nash himself scored on Tucker's sacrifice. That settled Brother Baldwin. Too Late to Slake a Fight. The Pittsburgs had been shut out in the second inning by a pretty double play, but in the third they resumed business with enthusiasm. Ehret signalized his appear ance by dropping a safe one in lelt field. Joe Kelly filed out. Then Miller gave Nash a hot one which was fumbled, and both runners were advanced by Donovan's sacrifice. Smith and Shugart each hit safely and each sent in a run. In the fifth inning the Bostons came near scoring. In the sixth inning the Bostons made another bid for a run, but a double play by Shugart, Bierbauer and Miller pre vented In the sixth inning, also, the Pittsburgs got men on third and second bases, but their two hits did no good. Lively fielding by the visitors held the Bostons down to one run in the seventh, and Farrell's wild throw let that in. It was a battle royal on both sides now, with the Pittsburgs "having a shade the best of it. The Bostons got in two runs inthe ninth, thanks to Ehret's wildness, but the game was theirs anvway, so it made no material difference. The score: rilTSBCKQ K B r A EiDOSTOJC R B F A E Miller, c...

The Washington Magnates Threaten to Call H'm Stronirly Down. Washington, Sept. 12. Spectal. Thero Is a prospect for a lively time at tho Washing ton ball park when the St Louis tcim play here a;ain, owing to tho action recently taken by President Von dor Abe in with holding a portion of the gato receipts at St Louis. He was induced to take this step on account of a transaction involving the de funct association in its business connected' with the transfer to the National League, and Geoige Wagner is very sore. He says the St Louis President had no right to hold the money out and he would get satisfaction if he had to bring the matter before -tho League. He declares that the old Washington club was responsible and that Von der Aue should have brought a civil suit for leeovery of tbe money against the old stockholders. An alleged claim against the Washington club on account of the renewal of tho Pen dleton's gronnds at Cincinnati Is at the foun dation or the trouble, the amount Involved being about $3 0. Von der Ahe has the money and the best of the argument at pres ent, but Wagner will make things warm for him at this end of the line. President George Wngnoo declares that the Washington Club t-alary list is the .fourth largest in the League and that the Senators are nearly $10,000 higher priced than tho Clevelands. He sees where mistakes have been made, and says that herealter things will bo conducted differently. Too many changes have been made, too many opportunities lost to secure good men when they were available, and too much dead tim ber has been carried. "I have talked with Manager Richardson," he said, "on tbe situation, and wo are a unit in the conclusion that It would bo lolly to Jet a man go for an inferior player. Any change to ba made should be for the better, and my manager has carte blancho to strengthen whonsver the opportunity Is of fered. My brother, J. Earl A agner, is half owner In the club, and he agrees with me that the team should be strengthened if pos sible. I believe we will yet get out of last place and so do the players, and to do so, they will have to make a change for the better from now on." The Diamond. Manages Powers expects to sign a new third baseman. Our Sluggers were beaten yesterday, but they must lose some time. A victory to-day for the heroes or this town will put e erythlng right It Is childish to kick about one or two defeats. Game people keep plodding on. If the local team can come home in second place they ought to be considered wonders. AMONG Southern peop'e the Pittsburg club Is considered the most plucky and the most popular.

The Oriental Handicap Damages the Talent at tho Gravesnnd Track. Gravesend Rack Track, Sept.12. ISpeciaL The original programme for this afternoon was a gem, but when the secretary's pen had finished Its labors there were 32 absentees. The most damago was done in tne Orlontal handicap,from which nine were withdrawn. The racing, however, was good. The talent opened the meeting by making Kingston a 2 to 5 favorite for the first race at five fur longs. The distance was a little too short for htm and Correction, 10 to 1, beat him a head in a desperate finish, after tho.mare had made all tbe running. Ot the four start ers in the seoond race, Parvonue, 1 to 3, won from the start galloping at the finish. Then came tbe .Prospect stakes and the defeat of another red-hot lavorite, Lady Violet, 1 to 3, finished second to Prince George, a 15 to 1 chance. Taral held the mount and won the stakes for Father Bill Daly, from flag fnll to finish. AJax took sec ond plnce from Lady Violet by two lengths. Lamplighter ruled a 6 to 5 favorite for tho Oriental handicap but was forced to finish third, Pactolus, Thrope up, an 8 to 1 in the betting, winning by a head from Fidelo, 3 to L. in a red-hot finish. Lamplighter was only a neck away. He would have won in a couple of more Jumps. Pactolus was quite lame after the race. The Zorrnetsa colt then set tho talent right by winning the fifth race at 2 to 1, and Dia blo made it an even break for favorites and longshots by capturing the last race cleverly at 4 to S.

TRIALS TO BEGIN IN OCTOBER. One Judge, Probably W. D. Porter, Will Dear AH the Cases. r UIJIIIIAET COKYICTION OP UNION MEN The trials of the Homestead workmen, who have been held to the grand jury on varying charges of murder, aggravated riot and conspiracy, will not begin in the Crim inal Conrt until the first week in October. Fifty-five men have been so held, and against some of them there are four and five charges. The lawyers on both sides of these prose cutions are now hard at work arranging their testimony and preparing for what must be a memorable series of trials. The Carnegie Steel Company has agents at work, not only in Pittsburg and Home stead, but in distant cities, seeking new witnesses. It is probable that some of the outside newspaper correspondents, who did work in Homestead during the troublesome days of July, will be brought here to tes tify. The resources of the defendants are more limited, but they are working hard. The grand jury is at present occupied with jail cases.and minor charges of misdemeanor and criminal conduct, of which there is a very large list. The Homestead cases will be brought before the grand jury the latter part of next week or the first of the week following. I'lnkerton Detectives to Testify. That inquiry will not take long, as many of the witnesses in one case are witnesses in many others. The chief witnesses will be Pinkerton detectives. The work of pre senting the cases to the grand jury is in charge of Charles A. Fagan, Assistant Dis trict Attorney. The papers from the Magis trate are all in his possession, with the names of the witnesses indorsed thereon. "When the hearings begin, they will all be conducted before one Judge. "Who this Jndge will be has not yet been decided, bnt it is probable that in October there will be three Judges holding Criminal Court Judge Porter appeared at the Court House yesterd ay after his vacation. The murder cases wiU be taken up first, and Hugh O'Donnell will probably be the first man tried. The hearing of all the Homestead cases by one Judge will greatly expedite proceedings, and in most of the cases the juries will be largely the same men. Three Homestead prisoners were ar raigned before Pittsburg aldermen yester day afternoon, charged with disorderly con duct on last Friday. On that day, while the non-union men in the mill were going in sqnads to various restaurants for their meals, men and boys shouted at them, call ing them "blacksheep" and "scabs." Whistled the ICogno's March. Henry Sbaup was accused before Alder man Gripp of whistling "The Rogue's March," as the non-union men passed by. The information was made by Deputy Sheriff E. H. Brady, who swore that he knew "The Eogue's March" and that Shaup whistled it. He was the only witness for the prosecution, and for the defense Shaup and two friends testified that he did not whistle anything of the sort Indeed, Shaup said that he did not know "The Bogue's March." He was discharged. John Benshaw, a man ot 45 years, was accused by H. B. Collins, a non-union workman, of shouting opprobrious epithets. Benshaw admitted the offense, bnt his at torney, John F. Cox, contended that the utterance of such words as "blacksheep" and "scab" did not constitute disorderly conduct Magistrate Gripp sentenced Ben shaw to the workhouse for 30 days, under what is called the workhouse act An ap peal was taken and bail furnished. Before Alderman McMasters, for a sim ilar offense, on the same day, Jesse Miller, a boy of 16, was tried on the complaint of Deputy Sheriff Joseph- Ferguson. The proof was positive, but Attorney Coz made a Btrong plea for clemency. Attorney Petty, for the prosecution, asked that the boy be sent to the workhouse for 30 days, and the alderman so ordered. An appeal was taken in the case also. In his address Attorney Petty said he had begun to doubt whether there were any law-abiding people in Homestead. PICKED UP BY THE POUCH.

BLACKWELL'S DURHAM TOBACCO CO., Durham, N.L To Avoid Contagious Diseases It is of the utmost importance to strengthen the body. A healthy body will much sooner withstand the ravages of contagious diseases, Chol era, La Grippe, etc., than a weak frame. The genuine Johann Hoff's Malt Extract is acknowledged in this respect to be the best tonic bev erage and, is especially recommended for invalids, where a delicate yet strengthening tonic is necessary to build up a debilitated constitution. One dozen bottles of Johann Hoff's Malt Extract are equal in nutritive and Ionic qualities to one cask of Ale or Porter, without being intox icating. It is beneficial alike for man, woman or child. Prof. Prosper De Pietra Santa, of Paris, says: "As a large number of patients lack the necessary power to digest solid food, and would through the use of stimulants be merely ex cited and weakened, therefore I re gard it of immense value to the practitioner to bring to his aid a nutritious tonic and remedy like the Johann Hoff's Malt Extract, which will act not only as a tonic, but as a nutrient as well, and which is less ex citing than wine as a stimulant-" Be sure to obtain the genuine, which has the signature of "Johann Hoff " on the neck of every bottle.
