. GAME WAS QIKKB.
Springfield Won Itccunso Scronton's
Heavy Hitting Waa Always at the
: Wrong Time, Uccause Johnson Pitched
Good and Hud Hall, and for Other
Reasons.
It would require u rare kind of n&ur
inp to explain just how SprinKileld won
Saturday's Kitme from Scranton.
Joughllii, the Siirinnneld pitcher, was
batted out of the box In two and a
half Innings and his awkward succes
sor, Hawley, was just as easy to solve.
Scranton mnde 18 hits for 27 bases erhd
Springfield 12 hits for 111 bases; Johnson
made but 4 pitching errors while Haw
ley made 6.
Hut there are other scoring details
which throw light on the result. Fif
teen Scrantonians were left on bases
against ti Ponies, and Scranton made
seven errors against Springfield's four.
The number left on bases shows that
MeDermott's men failed to line 'er out
at the proper time. In addition,
Springfield's errors were not as costly
rs Scranton's. Then there remains the
very important fact that In one inning
Johnson's wildness made three runs
liosslble and throughout the game he
flopped from good to bad pitching with
disastrous regularity.
The contest was witnessed by about
2.000 persons, an audience quite as
large as on the opening day. They had
their fun anyhow, for the game see
sawed from Springfield's to Scranton's
favor and vice-versa until the seventh
Inning when the visitors took the lead
and kept it. Meanwhile there was Just
enough kicking over ground rules and
just enough debate with the umpire to
satisfy the most turbulent crank, so the
crowd had excitement even though
' Scranton did lose.
THE ONE STAR PI-AY.
Flack made the one star play of the
day by -his running catch of Leahy's
lly in the sixth. It was a low hit ball
and Flack got It back of second and
toward left field. Hutchinson made
one error out of six chances but the
crowd has sized him up as a good play
er. While the tirst-bnse playing of
Chiles was weak, he did as well as was
expected In that push ion. and the posi
tion will continue to be one of the two
shaky spots on the team until a proper
man Is found to play It. Itafferty made
some good plays and some bad ones.
The best Infield work of either team
was performed by Shannon, the Spring
field shortstop. Schefller'3 hitting was
a feature, his triple, two doubles, single
and base on balls combined to assist In
procuring every Springfield run. 5un
son'a backstopplng could not have been
' better.
First inning Scranton missed a
chance to score, a miss that was later
repeated with surprising regularity.
With Ward out, Meaney had singled,
and, after Chiles flew out, reached third
on Coogan's muff of Hutchinson's lly.
Meaney was nipped at the plate while
ylng to come in on Hutchinson's
Jteal. Springfield tallied three times
tn a single, a steal. Rafferty's wild
throw to second, a triple, a double and
Hutchinson's error.
EAOAN FORCED OUT.
Second inning With three on bases
on two singles and a bunt, Kagan was
forced at the plate, Johnson fouled out,
and Ward flew out to Lynch. Spring
field was retired one-two-three.
Third Inning After Meaney had
knocked one Into the carriages in right
field field for a homer and Chiles had
made a triple, Coughlin was taken out
of the box, Hawley taking his place.
Three singles, one of Leahy's two er
rors, a wild pitch and a blocked ball,
with the damage that had been done to
Coughlin, netted four runs. With two
out. Chiles muffed Hutchinson's assist
and the run came in on Schemer's triple.
8core 4-4.
Fourth Inning With two out Scran
ton filled the bases on singles by Hutch
inson and Eagan and a base on balls
to Flack, but Mnguire forced Eagan at
third. Springfield got two on bases
on Kaftan's error and Ounson's single,
but a force hit and Rafferty's quick
throw to Maguire after Leahy struck
out retired the side.

ItASE HALL GOSSIP.
It Is likely that a new make-up In the
Scranton-team will be seen In today's
game with Springfield. Hess Is slated
for first. Chiles for right and Meaney for
center. It Is Herr's turn to pitch but
his arm was on Saturday tied up and
it is possible that Brown will go In
the box.
Manager McDermott has also consid
ered another make-up which would
send Ward to first, Hutchinson to sec
ond and Deltrlch to short, but such an
arrangement would keen Chiles out of
the came. As this Is not the object of
the change, the first mentioned muke
up seems the more probable.
.
While n big howl is' being made that
the team be strengthened, the manage
ment Is hustling. It is possible that a
captain and first baseman may be In
the game by tomorrow but the cranks
don't know this. It Is one of the pe
culiarities of baseball, however, that utv
army of knockers arises after any los
ing period and falls all over Itself to
tell what ought to be done. And some
newspapers are alllicted with the same
maliidy. There is no thought that the
owners are just ns anxious to have the
club strong In every department. The
season Is young yet; only ten days of
playing have elapsed. When the man
agement lets weeks or days go by with
out doing anything, then will be the
time to howl. Until then all hands
might better sit down and keep cool.
The fnst-playiug Providence Grays
begin n three days' engagement here to
morrow and then the club goes to To
ronto, Buffalo, Syracuse and Rochester,
returning for Decoration Day games at
home and in Wllkes-Harre. Then will
follow four games In Wllkes-Barre and
this city, after which the club will be
at home until June 2U.
.
Arrangements are under way for a
game between Georgetown and Cornell In
this city June 3.

Philadelphia. May 10. From Infor
mation received here tonight it Is like
ly that the alleged filibustering steam
ship Lnurada took out a cargo of arms
and ammunition and a party of men
aboard off Astoria, Long island. After
outwitting the Spanish spies in New
York bay last night, the Laurada
slipped up the Long Inland sound and
hove to off Astoria. Here, It is said,
three tugs put aboard of the steamship
early this morning ,"00 tons of arms and
1.500 tons of ammunition. Besides
these munitions of war, sixty men went
aboard of the Laurada. These men are
under the leadership of General S. Ruia,
u leader of the former Cuban war.
After taking the cargo aboard the Lau
rada bore away In an easterly direction.
From what was learned here tonight It
Is more than likely that the Spanish
gunboat Mercedes, which chased the
steamship Hermuda, prevented that
vessel from landing the expedition
which she sailed with from Jacksonville
on April 20.
A cablegram wns received here to
night from Truxlllo, Honduras, to the
effect that the Bermuda left there this
morning. While at Truxlllo It was no
ticed that the Bermuda was still deeply
laden and her decks were crowded with
men. It Is thought that after the fail
ure to land the cargo und men In Cuba,
owing to the vigilance of the Mercedes,
the vessel went to Truxlllo to receive
further orders from the Cubans' Junta
In New York, as there Is direct cable
communication between the two places.
Possibly when the Bermuda sailed from
Truxlllo this morning she headed for
Cuba and a second attempt to make a
landing will, in all likelihood, be made.
ANNIVERSARY OF PEACE.
Festivities in Honor of the Treaty Be
tween France and German.
Berlin, May 10. The twenty-fifth an
niversary of the signing of the treaty
of peace between Germany and France,
which was signed at Frankfort on Mny
10, 1871, was celebrated in that city to
day. Emperor William and Empress
Victoria arrived at Frankfort this
morning and was given a most enthusi
astic reception by the officials and other
residents of the city. The town was
handsomely decorated in honor of the
occasion. Delegates were present from
every university In southern and cen
tral Germany.
In the afternoon the emperor un
veiled a monument to his grandfather.
His majesty sent a telegram to Prince
Bismarck recalling his never to be for
gotten services to the empire. Among
other things the dispatch said: "Side
by side with the name of the great em
peror that of the great chancellor will
ever be emblazoned In history. The
feeling of gratitude to you will never
die In my henrt."
A special edition of the Rolchsanzeig
er, the official paper, was Issued today,
In which the emperor thanks all the of
ficials In the civil service, especially In
the departments of posts, telegraphs
and railways, also assisted In the suc
cesses of 1870-71.
POISONED Y ZINC.
Traeio Heath of a Railroad Clerk at
Cleveland.
Cleveland. Ohio, May 10. Alexander
MeKenzie, a clerk in the offices of the
Pennsylvania railroad, was found dead
in bed this afternoon and Mrs. James
Everingham, the woman with whom
he was living, was drunk in the sume
bed. The man had died from u dose of
sulphate of zinc which the woman had
given him. She was niacerl under ar
rest charged with murder. The woman
was pardoned from the penitentiary
four weeks ago. She was serving a
term for bigamy.
She came here four weeks ago und
was living with McKenzle, leading the
neighbors to suppose they were man
and wife. The reason for the crime is
thought to be an insurance policy In
her favor.
lihoiiniatktn Cured in 24 Honrs,
T. J. Blackmore, of Haller & Black
more, Pittsburg, Pa., says: "A short
time since I procured a bottle of "Mys
tic Cure.' It got me out of the house
in twenty-four hours. I took to my bed
with rheumatism nine months ago and
the 'Mystic Cure' Is the only medicine
that did me any good. I had five of the
best physicians In the city, but I re
ceived very little relief from them. I
know the 'Mystic Cure' to be what it
is represented and take pleasure In rec
ommending It to other poor sufferers."
