standing of any of the clubs, although
the champion Baltimore In their own
city were beaten in a gilt-edged game

Buffalo's Batting Streak la the Eighth
Defeated Wllkes-Barre.
'Buffalo, N. T., Sept. 8. Buffalo and
"Wllkes-iBarre played a free hitting and
fast fielding game today. In view of
the fact that the umpire, Doescher, was
released from the league staff last
night, Jack (Rowe, the famous old-time
ball player, was engaged to umpire
and gave excellent satisfaction, not a
kick on either side being made. In the
first two innings Wadsworth was found
for nine hits with a total of nineteen
bases and the Minors earned eight
runs. Buffalo won in the eighth by
heavy hitting by Bottenus, brauby,
Shearon and Wise, two doubles and
two homers following In quick succes
sion. Buffalo played an errorless game,
and (Lewee, with his Injured hand, put
up a fine exhibition at short field. At

SCRANTON AT HOME.
Will Play Hero This Week with Spring
field and Providence.
Despite the report to the contrary,
the Scranton club will finish the sea
son at 'home with Sprlngneld and Prov
idence. This announcement waa made
by President 'Belts to a Tribune re
porter last night.
The Springflelds play here for three
days beginning tomorrow, and Provi
dence will finish 'the week, playing
two games Saturday. '
Rallroadcrsfsre Victors.
The base ball club composed of em
ployes of the Jersey Central Railroad
company defeated the wholesale clerks
Saturday afternoon. The score was 15 to
lo. The batteries were Clark and Boreher,
for the railroaders, and Ruddy and Pow
ell, for the clerks.
DIAMOND DUST.
Jennings, Kelley and Keeler tinvo all
averaged more than a run a game the sea
son through. Kelley has made his tenth
home run.
Pitcher Johnson Is still nursing h'.t
strained knee and It Is uoubtful If he will
be able lo pitch before Friday, when be
gins In th'.s city the closing series with
Providence.
Keenan seems to bo the only reliable of
the "Barons" on the present trip. Coak
ley Is effective when not wtld, but .
Betts Is a dandy when opposing batters
can't hit b'.m, but .Spurting Life.
When the Baltlmores fall down In their
play they are helped by their luck. They
were outbatted by the Louisville and
made four errors, but they won by
bunched hits, assisted by costly errors In
the fifth Inning.
Without speaking by the curd. I shall
hazard the prediction that Murphy, Ger
man and Bannon will not be members of
next season's team. Stafford will, With
out doubt, be retained as a general utility
mun, and Clark, the first baseman, will
not bo released. O. P. Caylor In the Her
ald. There has never been any love lost be
tween Manager Kuntseh, of Syracuse,
ami President Bogert, of Wllkes-Barre,
and an echo of th-:r lll-feellng is shown In
the following dispatch 10 Sporting Life:
"Wllkes-Barre, Pa.. Sept. 4.-The Syra
cuse management skinned Manager Shan
non out of a guarantee on Saturday lust.
If all reports are true. Such a course Is
quite In keeping with the general conduct
of base affalis by the "Saltlne Snnos
ers.' No one Is surprised at anything
that aggregation may do."

. Surprises featured the closing of the
tourney of the ' Scranton Lawn club

three sets being necessary In many
Instances. Lunch was served during
the afternoon.

GOSSIP OF THE TURF.
Nellie A. is one of the biggest trotters
ever on the turf. She makes the average
good-slsed nag look diminutive.
Western hornemen are organising a
movement for the reinstatement of Jockey
Willie Flynn, recently ruled off for life.
Notwithstanding all the talk and agita
tion against them, the San Francisco pool
rooms are still In full blast und doing good
business.
IndlanapoKs, It Is said, also intends to
go out of the racing business. Seven meet
ings have been given there, with a loss
of about S12.0U0.
Ramapo Is getting Into fairly good shape
again. The horse has been troubled with
a spilt hoof, and Trainer Wishard has In
vented a special appliance for the ailing
foot, which It is thought will enable the
horse to stand a preparation.
At the recent Baden (Austria) meeting
the greatest trotting race ever witnessed
in Europe took place. There were 20.OU0
ueaule present, and the race caused great
excitement. The purse was $2,000, mile
heats, three in five, with a handsome gold
medal for the winner If the Continental
record was broken. The American trotter
Spofford. by Kentucky Prince, who was
well driven by O. Lamma, won the race
and medal, beating the record two sec
onds. Vnlkyr was second, driven by Sir.
Rosul, the noted Italian driver. Belle
wether third, was a great favorite, and
under the masterful hand of J. 8. Brown
made a grand finish in the second heat,
when the stallion Bellewether was hardly
a nos. In the rear of Spofford. Riga,
driven by the well-known driver, Horace
Brown, trotted a good race, but was oiit
clnsofd. The first heat was won 'by
Valkyr In 2.17 8-10, and In the second,
third and fourth heats, Sljoffora was in
front, and his time was 2.15 9-10, 2.18 3-10,
2.18 9-10.
SUNDAY MORNING FIGHT.
Kegulor Hungarian Mcloe In Whleh One
Man Is Stubbed.
Chance alone prevented another
Hungarian murder being added to the
Ring list which, during the past few
years have been committed on Sunday.
At an early hour yesterday morning
a crowd of Huns on their way home
from their usual Saturday night de
bauch stopped on Fifth avenue, Dodge
town. ,to have ithe customary ante
parting fight. During the melee John
Madur drew a dirk and plunged the
blade twice Iroto the body of Joe
Ilronuk, with whom he was jrrappled.
It so happened that the knife did not
Btrlke a vital spot. Both cute are on
the left shoulder and only half an Inch
apart and while JJronuk bled pro
fusely, his condition Is not considered
serious. His white shirt was dyed
crlirson all over by the blood which he
lost In-fore a physician could lie sum
moned. It was secured by a police to
be used as evidence and was taken to
the station house, where It was viewed
by many visitors yesterday.
Patrolmen Walsh and Coleman heard
of the affray, and hastening . to the
scene had the wounded man cared for
und then started out to capture his as
sailant. At the approach of the police
he Jumped from the second story win
dow of his home nnd ran to the river
bank opposite Harvey's mill, whore ie
plunged In and swam across with Pa
trolman Walsh In hot pursuit. The
officer was not accoutred for swim
ming and had to give up the chase at
the river's edge.
Joe Toth, a friend of the murderous
Madur, was arrested and locked up.
After the stabbing one of the onlookers
attempted to hold the r tab nor, but Toth
knocked him senseless with a stone
und caused him to release Madur. He
was held as an accomplice.
