GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OP TIIE DAT rFPECUL TELIOEAM TO TIIB DISPATCH.! Cleveland, Oct, 17. The first game be tween the Bostons and Clerelands for the national championship has come and gone, and not a run has been scored nor a victory achieved, Nearly 6,000 people occupied the seats at National League Park this afternoon, comfortable in the warm rays of an autumn snn, and crazy as bedlam's in mates before they lia I been on the grounds an hour. The opening contest was a duel between the coal miner of Pennsylvania, Stivetts, and the farmer boy of Ohio, Young, and honors are easy between the two, except that Stivetts struck out Young three times, while the latter caught his ad versary but once. Of the ten hi ts made in the game by both teams but six were hard line drives, and these were mutually di vided between the clubs. In fielding Cleveland did rather the more sensational work of the two a phenomenally good catch by HcAleer 'spoiling an apparent three-base hit by Duffy, and Davis" work at third excelling that ot any infielder. Some Good Infield Work. Thft first basemen of both teams were fre quently applauded tor extraordinary stops of poor throws. Behind the bat Cleveland had the best of it, as Kelly was all at sea on high' fouls, and bad but little speed in throwing to second. In all respects it was one of the most even games that ever was played in the city. Gathering darkness obliged the umpire to call it alter the' eleventh inning was completed. It was then quite impossible to see the ball from the outfield. -The Cleveland club came nearer scoring than Boston. Burkett was the lucky man and lost his run by about a foot at the plate on Ouinu's throw to Kelly. This was in the ninth inning when it looked at one time as though Cleveland would win the game with two men on bases and but one out McKean was at the bat, and in spite of the fact that he hit the ball very hard, one of the hardest hits in fact Hi the .game, be batted it squarely into Long's hands, forcing Davis at second. Long tossed the ball to Quiun and the latter started to argue with the umpire. Burkett Was Fooled Greatly. In the meantime Burkett had gone away from third and made a dash lor the plate, -but Quinn aroused from his trance and threw the daring youngster out. Boston had two good opportunities to score after two men were out, that is they eo.t a player as far as third base, where a hit would bring him home. These chances occurred in the fourth and filth innings. In the first' instance Kelly was at bat and Young struck him out, add the second time McKean made a good stop and throw ofl'Quinu's hit After that the Bostons never were within reach of the plate. In addition to the ninth Cleveland hid a possible chance to score in the second inning, when McKean spoiled it by being caught napping at second. In general the progress of the entire game each inning was one, two, three out President Young, of the National League, and President Soden, of the Boston club, were delighted spectators. Thepitchers to morrow will be Sialey and Clarkson.

The fall meeting of the Washington Jockey Club was opened as the Bennlngs track to-day under promising conditions. The track was in fair condi tion, a trifle too deep If anything. For an' opening day the crowd was an excellent one, but did not appear disposed to bet very heavily. The infield was well filled with fashionable turnout,some of them .ocaupled Dy members of the diplomatic corps, and though the campaisrn work has taken away many Washington officials there was a fair representation present. The number of ladies at the course was not as large as usual. During the afternoon the Third Ar tillery Band furnlsbe'l excellent music. The races themselves were not of a highly exciting nature, none except the fourth fur nishing a driving finish.

Champion Jim Corbett is in Chicago to attend the World's Fair dedi cation, and as a side issue he is playing "Gentleman Jim" at the Hayinarket Al though not at this moment ready to shy bis castor Into the ring, he expresses a desire to get a chance at Mitchell, "I am,1' he said, "especially anxious to meet Mitchell, and prefer his game to that of any man living. He insulted me once, and I am anxious to face him in-the ring. I feel confident that I can whip him. While I would not be willing to cancel my theatrical engagement, which runs into summer, I will make all possible concessions to bring on a fight 1 will post all necessary money, and will guarantee to meet him at the date specified. Next to Mitchell, I prefer to meet Peter Jackson. If the Englishman refhses to come 15) tho front I will make a prefer ence ln'Juckson's lavor. I am not anxious to fight right away. Sullivan did not fight a championship battle for years, and here Goddard, who has no claims whatever npon my favor or consideration, is trying to force me to meet him before my honors have grown cold. He has no call upon me, and I will pay no attention to the Kangaroo. He can bluff to his heart's content, and claim the earth if be wants to it won't affect me any. I am the champion, and at the proper time will be ready to defend my title." A MODEST FIOHTEE. Joe Choynskl Makes a Good Impression on a Few Visitor. New York, Oct 17. If condition, modest confidence and agility go for. anything, Joe Choynskl should have a good ohanoe at winning the fight on October 30, when he faces George Qodliey, the colored prodigy. A party ot sporting men acoompanled by au Associated Press reporter visited the young Callfornian ac his training ouurteis at Navoslnk, Atlantic Highlands,' and fonnd him In gooa health and spirits. With Choynskl were "Parson" Davles, his backer, and Johnny II cVay and "Buffalo" Costello, his trainers. The fighter's quarters are in a two-story cottage immediately facing the Atlantis ocean and only a step from the water's edge. The cottage, however, is used only for lisht exercising and as sleeping auarters. The harder part oc the training Is one in a barn a short distance up the road, all tne paraphernalia used in reducing weight and .hardening the muscles being fitted to walls and ceiling or the barn. Here Choynskl overy morning punches the bag for ten minutes, practices with the dumb bells, tries his hand at tho wrist strengthen ing machine and takes a 20 minute turn at throwing a heavy leather ball. Then follows the usual long walk. Choynskl said that he Intended to enter the ring at IBS pounds. -"1 hope to whip Godfrey In quiok time," he added: " Why shouldn't L" GBEAT BATTLE EXP2CIED. The Contest Between Choynskl and God frey Causing Lots of Interest New Yobk, Oct 17, Special. It the sale of seats is any criterion, the battle between Joe Choynskl and George Godfrey, which occurs before the Couey Island Athletic Club on October 81. will be the most remarkable In point of attendance which has been held since the opening fight Johnnie Uckhardt has been besieged with applications for boxes and seats. Several hundred have already been sold, and, Judg ing from the outlook, the house will contain very few unreserved seats on the night of the fight. Tickots have already been sold to Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and Chicago sport ing men. Several special trains will be run from the East and Philadelphia so that the match can be attended conveniently. The prices or admission will be fixed at $3. $5 and $0. Private boxes holding five chairs, will retail at $25.

The trains yesterday brought a number of sporting men from Philadelphia, Camden and Manchester to this city, and they secured teams and drove to a secluded place over the county line.. where an exciting set-to between David Elliott, of this city, tbe feather weight champion of South Jersey, and Thomas Kelly, of Gloucester City, the bantamweight champion of Camden connty, took place. The Elliott-Kelly fight was preceded by six friendly set-tos of tbree rounds each between Philadelphia sports, and then Elliott, weighing ISO pounds, and Kelly, weighing 112 pounds, stepped'lnto tbe ring. It was nip and tuck for six rounds. At ,the beginning of the seventh Elliott forced the fighting. Catching Kelly's jaw he felled him In his own corner nnd then, it is claimed, deliberately jumped on him and made a pass at him while lying on his back. The crowd uot in front of the referee and prevented him from seeing the foul. Kelly claimed tbe fight on a foul, bnt the referee said he did not see it and refused to awnrd it to him. Kelly then refused to continue the fight and the referee gave the fight to Elliott and awarded him the stakes. Moore Won It Chicago, Oct 17. In a rattling mill on the West Side this morning Dick Moore, the St Paul middle weight, defeated Tim Crowley of Boston after five furious rounds. A purse of $300 had been bung up for the fiht, while the gate receipts reached an equal amount. The fighting was fast and heavy fiom the start Moore showed up well, drawing blood in the first round, while Crowley seemed very slow. In the second, Moore bad de cidedly the best of the exchange. Crowley came to the fore in tbe third rnshlng Moore and banking him around with. good right hand swings, lie railed to follow' up his lead, however, and Moore came to the scratch perfectly fresh in tho fourth. This was a hot round, both men smashing right and lelt. Crowley had tho worit of it, and waB weuk when ho came up in tho next round. Moore saw his chance, rushed in, caught Crowley a left-hander in the neck, and followed it up with a Btorm of punches which laid Crowley senseless on the floor. More New Tachts. , New York, Oct 17. Most of the members of the New York Yacht Club are, it is said, ill favor of all altering a new deed of gift of the America's cup so as to make it possible to accept tho Earl of Dunraven's challenge. Mat Herresboff, tho designee nnd builder, has said that in rase the challenge is ac cepted he can build three boats of the sizo required in time to meet tho challenger. It is altogether likely that ho would have that manyoiders. General Paine might have a boat built at Lawleys' in Boston, but if Archibald Bogers. Edwin D. Morgan and August Belmont decide to build-and they are almost sure to do so-Herreshotr Is likely to get the order. The Chicago Kace. Chicago, Oot. 17.

Seme ('pinions on (he Government of lap list Congregations. BET. J. 0. TAinOK DEMANDS A TEJAL Kev. J. C. Taylor, pastor of the Taber nacle Baptist Church, colored, takes strong exceptions to the action of the Executive Committee of the Allegheny Baptist As sociation, in declaring him deposed irom the ministry. Mr. Taylor said yesterday: "The action of the Executive Committee, or of any other body not provided for in the organic law of the denomination, is a usurpation of au thority which belongs to a council of churches when .properly constituted. The constitution of the association provides tor an executive committee, whose duty it is to change the place and time of the annual meetings ot the association in case ot an emergency, and to attend to business re ferred to it at the annual session. It has no authority to discipline a church, or dis miss a pastor, or withdraw the hand of fel lowship. The constitution provides for any irregularity which may be brought to the annual meeting of the association. "The government of the Baptist Chnrch is congregational; the right of discipline rests in the church, and when a church be comes disorderly the churches composing the association shall proceed according to tbe regulations. The grievance must be brought to the bodv and referred to a com mittee to investigate and report back, the bodv then finding in the case. The church agafnst which the charge Is preferred shall have an opportunity for defense, and can not be justly disciplined and excluded from the association without a trial. The TabeT nacle Baptist Church, which is reputed as being disorderly, has violated no law of her constitution, nor tbe recognized anthorities of Baptist Church polity. "The Executive Committee has gone a step further in an illegal manner in asking for the resignations of members of the Woman's Missionary Society and Sunday School Convention. These organizations have their own officers and executive boards separate from the association. There fore the Executive Committee of the associ ation has nothing to do with them. The Executive Committee is so blinded with prejudice as not to see the fallacy of its course. The principal officers of these or ganizations are members of the Tabernacle Church. "The churches of the association will not indorse any such proceedings; They have had no part in these unlawful actions, and the whole matter can be traced to three ministers who are attempting to run the affairs of the church. If the leader would walk after the unconverted and give them the "Word of Life instead of going about trying to disrnpt the Tabernacle Church, it would be better for the cause he claims to represent" BAIT IHTO IHBEE EN3INES.
