Various League eluh are searching the
earth for pitching talent nnd yet Knefe Is
still waiting for a oill.
One of the grnittnst dlsnppolnlmcnls to
New York "rootars" Is the failure of their
outfield to hit the ball.
Nichols, of Boston, keeps posted on svery
batsman's weakness, and good control of
Ihe ball comes In handy.
Pitchers who have not even hl the ben
efit of a minor league (mining are not like
ly to develop at onoe stiffl'ileut o tllber for a
plaoe on a League team.
Th veteran, "Jim" Kennnn. who was
ontohlng when Anion wis a youn ( blool
and when "on thn bonnes wis out," thinks
ot again donning the mask.
Rtrixr outs are not neirso nu-nnroutthis
season as tnev once were. Nina is the
greatest number struck out In a single
game. Busle of New York, holds (hat
record.
The Brooklyn are plartng good ball an I
the team Is working well together. Thn
pitchers are pitching an I tho bits nun nra

Ho far as (he League race bns been run It
ha been demonstrate 1 (hat the strength of
the Eastern olti'm, barring Baltimore, hi
been overestimated by the winter critlas,
while (hat of the Western teams has benn
correspondingly underestimated.
It Is one of the Idlosvnnraoles of the Na
tional sport, and one for whlob there Is ap
parently no explanation, tnnt certain club
are far more uones(ul against clulsi by
whlob they are outclassed on form than they
are against oluU with which they are sup
posed to be evenly matched.
Goon judge lay that the attempt to oopy
the tyle ot play ued by the Bostons has
greatly Impaired the batting of (he New York
team. Better let the player hit the ball In
their own way than to have their attention
taken from the pitcher by watching signals
tbat do not work, say an expert.

PLANS OF A SYNDICATE.
French Telephone Service to be Introduc
ed in the United State.
Tbe telopnone system now in vogue In
France is to be introduced in this country at
an early date by a syndicate of Philadelphia
capitalists who have purchased the American
patent rights from tbe French inventor. It
will be operated by a corporation to be
known as the Ciamond Telephone Co., ap
plication for a charter for which will be made
on July 7. If the expectations of the pur
chasers nre realized tbe introduction of the
system will revolutionize one branch of the
telephone business in the United States. The
lompany is not Intended to be a rival to the
telephone company, the prime object of the
Incorporators being to secure the introduc
tion of the French system in hotels, apart
ment bouses, country residences, eto, aud in
railroad service. In fact it Is hoped that the
use of the new telephones will enable many
of the large railroad companies to- do away
altogether with their private telegraphic sur
vive. Demolished by Flood.

THE DEADLY AFTEfl-DAluP
CAUSES AWFUL LOSS OF LIFE
tn a Welsh Mine Explosion. BOO Men
Were Caught nnd It I Believed that
Half of Them Have Been killed.
A dlspabli from Pont y pridd, near Cat
llff. Wales, says a terrible explosion oecnrreil
Friday afternoon In (ho Albion colliery, near
iha( plnon. Two hundred miners are burled
tsinenth (he debris of (he mine. It Is estl
listed that 0 miners were killed, either by
;he explosion or by (he falling earth and
rock.
The force of (he explosion mny be Judged
from the fa -t (hat a l-atn lflxIS Inches nnd
10 ('( long was blown a considerable ills
wnee from (he top of (he shnff. Several
snrtlesof volunteers In the work of rescue
Ji-seendeil Into the pit.
The enllro population of Cllfvndd and
hundreds of persons from Pont-v-l'ridd and
it her places In the vicinity gathered about
the mouth of the pit this evening, anxiously
waiting news.
It Is stated Hint most of the entombed are
llmls-rers, laborers, haulers and rippers. A
dosen or more boys nre also among the num-.
Is-r. Lnte n( nlghl some of the resellers
Cnme to the surface and reirtcd thnt they
had penetrate! Into Hie mine for a distance
of 1 110 yards from the bottom of the shaft,
mid had found live men alive, but badly In
lured. They also found IS men who had
Ish'ii killed, 'i his Information spread rapid
ly nmong the crowd nt the pit's mouth, and
the excitement grew In Intensity.
Shortly after the live live men werebrought
up, tlm bodies of those found near them were
raised to the surface and plncecl n a shed
near thn mouth of (he pit. Here several ot
(hem were Idenlllled by thelrclothlng.
Judging from the ni(snrnncesof the bodies
death In many instances was caused by the
dreaded uftcr-dnmp. This gas Is hindering
the work of (be rescuers, the fans as yet not
linving succeeded In clearing the pit of It.
