in;; vesterduy It wou its twelfth con
secutive gauie, which is quite a re.
marltable record.
Tb victory wss compiratively easy
and the Scranton players did not have

Yerkee was ugain sent in to pitch for
the borne team, but in the

Be Euccseda layers as Ilsad of tbo
Stats Lsagua.
Fiuladku-uia, July 20. The StBte
Base Hull It-ague meeting did not ad
journ until nearly 2 o'clock this morn
ing. A rule was udooted that nil the
clubs except Philadelphia ure to pay
the visiting team halt tbe gatv receipts
with a $.0 guarantee, and one of
in cas of rain. In the case of Puiia
dvlubia it was decided that visiting
clubs shall receive only US per cvtit. of
tbe gate receipts as tbe boini team lias
to pay such a blgli rent for tbe
grounds.
. K. Myers resigned as president of
thele:gn, and A. 11. Johnson, ownr
of the AlU-utown team, was elecUd to
snocted bim.
GLINTS FROM THE DIAMOND.
An effort is to boniado to nrrange for an
exhibition gam betwtieu Scranton und
Wilkes-Uarro in tbeueur future.
The disbnuding of tbo Troy club may
result iu Scrannm guiug iuto the Easteru
League if the 50 per cent, of tbe gato re
ceipts scheme is uot amended.
It is doubtful if Charley Cnmpau will
ever play ball ngaui. In tbe name in t lie
Southern league ou tbe Fourth vt July he
injured his rigbt leg, tariug a llguuient
loose troiu the knee cap.
The tie for first place between Hcrnnton
aud Alleutovvu still contiuues It is ouo
of the most notable races in base ball of
recent years and la beiug watched with
Interest by ndmirors of tbe national game
everywhere.
P.eading bns sliced Pitchor Southard,
who bas been at bis uome lu this city for
tbeimst few duvs. lie pitched for tft
Jose4i, M i., during tbe early part of tho
season, lie is a south paw and has gooil
curves. IieadiuR has also signed Wallace,
the Frauklin pitcher, whom Manager
Swift was urged to eigu some time ago.
At tbe meeting of tbe stele League at
Pluludeliibia W eunesdav uiuht It was ue
cldsd tbat visi'.iug clubs shall receive .10
per csut. of th-j Kate receipts or a
tfuarautre. This actiou does ut nua
favor with the members of tbo Scranton
assuciatiou and at a mooting to be held
next luesday uight by tue stockholders,
tbe mutter will be considered.
Tbut play of Ausou's inoneof tbe Chi-
caae (tames is likely to furuitb consider
able discussion for some time to come or
uutll Nick oung gives tinal judgment.
From present testimony McQuade is the
eulv umpire to allow it. kuislle uaviug ue
clared Tucker out twice last year for tbe
same thing. Ansou, it will bo remem
bered, jumped from one box to the other
to bit a ball which was iuteuded to give
hi in tils base. AlcU liulu decided that An
son did pertectly right in jumping over
tbe plate. When asked If a batter were
to step over any of tbe other three linos
what LUs decision would b he said: "Out."
"Then if o batter steps fourteen inches
across the plte frrm one box to the other
heisnotonif" "No," was the reply. It
is common for players to chung from one
box to tbe other to annoy the itcber when
he is a little wild, aud if tbt-y can do that
before he delivers tbe ball, wuy can they
uot do it as it is comiug up? Tbo legal
position of tbe batsmau is within tbe
lines. He can turn bis face, his side or his
back to the plate iu fa.t, take any posi
tion as long as be keeps bis feet inside tbe
batter's Hues. Philadelphia Bulletin.
WHIRLS OF THE WHEEL.
Chr.rles B. Brook, tbe colored rider, has
withdrawn bis suit for ii.OOU damages, in
stituted against tbe Ataluuta Wheoiman,
of Newark, for refusing to accept bis
entry in their rcsut roud race.
The class B men Bud themselves in a pre
dicament, Tbe manufacturers only want
to hire tbe very best of them aud tho.io
few cracks win all the prizes. Hence there
is nothing left for the medium pace riders.
Tbe latter would welcome professional rac
ing. Zimmerman seems to be a great name
in athletics aud sporting Hues. A. A.
Zimmirman is tbe world'e clmmpiou bi
cycle racor; Gus Zimmerman, uf New
York, is the clmmpiou riilo shut of tbo
world, and Al. Zmiiliermau, a westbrnur,
is famous as a wrestler.
An earnest effort is being made by Presi
dent l.uscomb and bis collmignes to in
creaso thfe membership of the League of
American Wheelmen. Tbe chief consul
of tbe various divi-ious bave b-nn in
structed to begin recruiting proceedings at
once, in order to enroll all wheelmen iu tbe
orgnuization.
Chicago will have a big circuit race
meet on Aug. 2, 8 and 4. There will be no
other meets of any importance ou tbo'o
dates, aid tbe presence ot all tbe cracks is
couuted ou. One of tbe features will be
t he one mile uupaced, llvina start, for class
B men. It is tbo intention to establish a
record for this, and it will really be tbe
best test of a rider's ability. Sanger, Titus,
Johnson, Bliss, Taylor, Bald, Tyler, Mc
Donald, Kennedy and Taxis will take part
In tbis event.
Tbe record breaking tournament of th
Waltbam liicycl club will take pl.ice
next Saturday . Tyler, who will attempt
to lower Bliss' world'-i record for the mile,
is training at the Walthum track, and is
reported to be riding vry fast. He is
confident ef his ability to rido tbe distanoti
in lm. 50s. Nat Butler will try to establish
a new two mile record. A. W. Porter
will try to regain bis supremacy as tbe
fastest Class A mile record breaker, and
there wiU be two or more Invitation races.
GENERAL SPORTING NOTES.
Chlcngo sporting mon aro trying to
bring Joe Choynski and Steve O'Donnell
topotuer In that city, but it is doubtful if
tbe autuoritiws will allow it.
The Ariel club has secured Jerry Mar
shall, the featherweight, who has been so
hot after Dixon latsiv. He will box four
rounds With Benny Peterson,
Tbe Seaside Athletic club, of Conoy
Island, will open Aug. 1. The programme
embraces a catch-as-catch-cau wrestling
match, ono six and two ten-ronnd boxing
bouts.
Boxing seems a bard game to kill. Now
that It bas received a temporary quietus
in Boston there are signs of a healthy re
vival at New Orleans, Coney Island, Buf
falo and other places.
A quiet movement is on foot In New
York city to start a boxing elub which
will far overshadow the Seaside Athletic
club. The detall, it Is stated, will be
ready for announcement in a"bout a week.
James J. Corbett, the American pugilist,
who sailed tor New York yesterday, said
tn an interview lu Belfast tbat he bad no
Intention of mooting Fltzsimmous or any
body else until be bas settled accounts
With Jackson.
