A WHIRLWIND FINISH.
It Was a Gallant Straggle. Bat Buffalo
Had the Best of It.
Buffalo, Aug. 28. Buffalo defeated
Bcranton today In a whirlwind finish
In the ninth Inning. The Buffalos vir
tually won the game In the first by
touching Miller for four runs. Though
hut out In the second, LSnffalo came
near to scoring, and Johnson went In
the box In the third. Herndon was
effective In the first, but In the second
and third he went to pieces, the visit
ors getting six runs on three bates
on balls, three doubles and one single.
Then Lampe went In the box and the
coring ceased. It was a beautiful
pitchers' battle with honors even till
.-- the Buffalos' half of the ninth, when
singles by Lewee and Lampe and a
base on balls to Bottonus filled the
bases.
Drauby then drove the ball to right
field for three and was scored by
Shearon'a single. Attendance, 1.2U0.

Until Day of Uattle.
The (Dallas club officials are not set
tled In mind as to how they will choose
the referee for thegreat fight. The club
I. all lha nfflnlula lint theV

nmust be to the liking of the .fighters. It
was generally understood tnat a reteree
would be selected three weeks before
the Tight. The point is not clear In the
articles. Fltzslmmons comes out with
the statement that he will not consent
to U10 selection of a referee until the
very day of the contest. "I want a
ralr deal," he said, "as inn is a very
Important matter to me."
"The club desires you to submit early
In October a list of names of men who
would suit you," the New Zealander
was informed. "That makes no differ
ence to me," was the reply. "The day
of the fight Is time enough, and I shall
not mention a man until then. I wnnt
a man who Is familiar with the rules,
and who has had eperlence. I do not
propose to get the worst of It."
V. A. iBrady said that he did not ap
prehend any difficulty In this direction.
"Any fair man will suit us," he said.
"We have named several capable men.
Now let Fits put In a list. The whole
thing can be settled In Ave minutes." -
It Is generally understood that the ref
eree of this engagement will get $1,000
and expenses. "Honest" John Kelly
agreed to act as refree at the Corbett
Mltchell fight In Jacksonville, when
Just such inducements were offered. He
Bettlfd the claim a short time ago, It Is
sold, for a mint julep.
Contrary to the usual experience, fifty
or more men aro after the Job, all of
them being eager to .have themselves
well advertised as on the eligible list.
Fltzslmmons will not favor one of them,
but Brady and Corbett probably have
one of the number. Who the choice of
Fltzslmmons Is no one at present
knows,

Spectators were stocked yesterday
by an accident on South Main avenue,
near Hampton street, which It seemed
would result seriously.. A rider on
horseback was coming toward the cen
tral portion of the town when the spir
ited animal became frightened by a
passing street cur.
The horse rose on its hind legs as
the car drew near, and In doing so
the animal fell backward fairly on top
of the man. Those who rushed to the
side of horse and man were surprised to
see both aline unhurt. The rider
mounted his stead again and the trip
was renewed. As the man's feet were
Incased in the stirrups at the time
of the accident, his escape la marvel
