NEW YOURS WINNERS. Four Gainrsi End tin' Temple Cup Series. Now York. Oct. 9.—The Now Yorks | have won the Temple cup and will re- I ceive 65 per cont. or about $22,000 after all expenses have been paid. The champion Haltimores were never in the game at the Polo grounds, and wore badly thrashed. It was the New York's fourth consecutive victory, and 11,000 persons went wild with delight. Mr- kin pitched a magnificent game from the start to finish and but for | errors by Fuller and Davis the cham pions would have been shut out. Uawke began pitching for Baltimore but after four innings, in which iie was pounded hard, he gave way to Kid Gleason, who was very easy to find. In all, Ward's nun rolled up twenty safe hits, Doyle, Van Haltren, Fuller and Farrell leading in the slaughter. Farrell caught superbly. Fuller ulso played good ball, barring a bad error in the first inning. In the sixth inning Van Haltren and Jennings collided at rfecond base; Van's nose was budlv bruised and Jennings was cut over the left eye. They had to give way to Mur phy and Bonner, respectively, while physicians dressed their wounds. The Baltimores scored two runs in the first j Inning on Kelley's base on balls. Ful- j h-r's fumble of Keeler's grounder, i Brouthers' out and McOraw's single. | Burke scored a run for New York on , his base on balls, a steal, llawke's I error and a wild pitch. In the third the visitors got another run on Davis* two errors, Brodh-'s out and Reitz'B ; single. The New Yorks also made a | run on hits by Meekin, Tlernan and Doyle. After the champions had been | blanked in the fourth, Ward's men ! lolled up three runs and took the lead. ! Van Haltren, Fuller, Farrell and Meekin made singles. Burke sent a long fly to Brodie, and Fuller and Far (• 11 worked in a double steal. Gleason took llawke's place in the fifth inning; and the New Yorks clinched the game. Davis got a base on balls, and took i second on a wild pitch. He scored on ' Doyle's double, but Ward forced Doyle at third. Van Haltren got four balls and Fuller's single scored Ward. Van came in on Farrell's hit, while both Fuller and Farrell counted on Meekln's buser to centre. In the sixth Doyle made another run on his single and steal, an error by McGraw and Ward's out. The home team piled up five more ; runs in the seventh. With one out. Farrell singled and Meekin filed to j Brodie. Burke made a telling hit, sending Farrell to third and stealing ! second himself. Tlernan got a base on | balls and Davis received another, fore- j ing in Farrell. Doyle put a single in centre, bringing In both Burke and I Tlernan. Ward's hit scored Davis, and j Doyle ran In. too, on McGraw's failure > to stop Brodie's throw to third. In the j fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth innings the visitors were helpless before Mee- | kin, and when the New Yorks had been [ retired In their half of the eighth, the | game was called on account of dark ness. The score stood 16 to 3. Van Haltren was presented with a : silver bat as the result of a voting con- j test in a New York paper for the most popular player in either the New York or Brooklyn teams. THIRTEEN WERE DROWNED. Terrible Disaster in a Storm Near St. Kilts. New York, Oct. 9. —The following dispatch has been received from St. Kltts, under date of Oct. 1: A terrible disaster occurred In the harbor of Barreterre within a stone's throw of the shore, by which thirteen persons were drowned in the height of the storm of Sept. 20. One of the traders between St. Kitts and Nevis, in which were twenty-two passengers and crew, foundered. Heroic efforts to rescue the strug gling passengers were made in spite of the furious wind and sea, and those rescued from the ill fated craft, as well as from oth r boats in dis tress, exceed largely the number drowned. Those drowned lived in Nevis, with one exception. No Meddling with Betters. Washington, Oct. 9. -The statement that the letters of officials of the United States cruiser Charleston had been opened by the Japanese officials and that all communications passing through the malls are carefully scru tinized, is denied at the legation. A similar story was in circulation In Ran Francisco six weeks ago when the present minister passed through that city, and was then authoritatively de nied by him. There is a provision in the new constitution of Japan which expressly prevents any interference with private letters. • x1 ill Owners Reach an Agreement. New Bedford, Mass., Oct. 9.—The biggest strike that New Bedford ever had Is practically ended. The strik<- has lasted eight weeks, and during that time much more suffering has been endured by the idle operatives than will be ever known. The mills will start their machinery on Thurs day morning and tlie operatives will flock into the gates in n happy frame of mind. During the past week they have suffered from lack of food and I warmth. The committee appointed by tin- spinners on Friday last, consisting ' of Messrs. Ross, Rowan, Smith, Rob | inson, Hancock, Perrin and Barnes, met the mill treasurers at A. U. ! Pierce's oiiice on North Water street. ! The conference began at 3 o'clock ami ! lasted until 5:30. When the spinners' ; representatives came from the meet ing the following was handed tlie re porter for tlie United Press by Pres ident Rowan, of the spinners' union: ! "The spinners, in conference with the mill treasurers, mutually agreed that the spinners of this city go back to work on a reduction of 5 per cent, in j wnges, with the understanding that j i whatever final settlement is made at Fall Itiver shall also apply here." Immediately after the meeting of ! t lie two bodies the spinners proceeded ! to Spiners hall, where the conference 1 1 committee of the various labor organ izations were in waiting to hear the ! result of the conference. The meeting was immediately called to order by 1 Chairman Connolly. The proceedings of the conference with the manufact urers was gone over and after quite a discussion the representatives of the ! various unions retired and discussed the advisability of accepting the agree ment. In a few moments the repre- j sentatives reconvened and practical ly agreed to go to work. The spinners' committee agreed that if tlie mill treasurers would net agree to ! take all the operatives back under the agreement that they would not go in themselves, but it is said there will be no trouble on that score as this was the understanding at the conference . with the manufacturers, j The operatives about town are feeling | i very jubilant. It is learned that the places of the operatives who have left the city on account of strike w ill be j kept for one week after the mills re- sume operations. This was a condition imposed on tlie mill treasurers by the ; spinners' committee. Many operatives ; who have left the city will no doubt take the opportunity to return. One of the manufacturers was seen after the ! meeting and said that the agreement j contained all the particulars of the con- ; forence. He said the meeting was very i harmonious und he spoke of the repre- i sentatives of the spinners as smart men. For his part, he said, he was glad the matter was settled. He was asked if the weavers were going to work with the rest of the unions and j he replied: "The weavers should have j ' less fault to find than any of the other j j unions for they have been cut the least. 1 Their cut will amount to only about 1 I per cent, on an average." "Will they he furnished with particu- j lars. if they ask for them?" was asked. "Why they have about all they want 1 i now," was the answer, and the mill 1 manager would say no more. TOO GOOD JOBS TO LOSE. New York Police Officers Want To Get Back on the Force. New York, Oct. 9. —Ex-Police Captain I Michael Doherty and ward men Bernard j Meehan and John Hoch, who were re- j ; eontly dismissed from the force and i are seeking through certiorari proceed ings a vindication in the supreme court, are anxious to have their cases | disposed of as quickly as possible, in the hope that the accusa- j tions that have been made against j them may Vie proved unjustifiable, and ' the courts mav restore them to their 1 respective positions on the force. No j returns in either of their cases to the j writs of certiorari have been made, | and only hast week the time within which the commissioners were to file j the returns was extended for twenty days, so that it would lie the last of I tills month before the returns would I Ifiled in any event should that exten sion stand. The ex-captain and ward- j men applied to Justice Lawrence in ' the superior court to vacate the order extending the time of the commission ers twenty days, from Sept. 27, within which to file the returns to the writs and their motion was granted. CHARITY FREELY TESTED. Financial Aid lor tlic Fall River si rlkers. Fall River, Mass., Oct. 9.—The eighth week of the strike is on. The city is , still orderly and the charity of all who i can give is being tested freely. The | letter carriers have contributed 2.500 loaves of brcud to the poor and the United Friends' Social club gave away 500 dinners last evening. The free soup distributions are going on and more than 2,000 persons are being fed daily in this way. Secretaries Ross, i of New Bedford, and Howard, of this i city, left in the Fall River line boat last evening for New York to meet Samuel Gompers and arrange for regu lar support for members of the Na tional Mule Spinners' association. The weavers executive committee will meet to arrange for tin* distribution of $4,000 among 3,000 members. Anarchist French Feigns Insanity. Barcelona, Oct. 9.—Salvador French, the anarchist, lying under sentence of death for exploding a bomb In trie Llceo theatre last winter, has lately been feigning insanity. Yesterday he charged the prison chaplain with try ing to poison him and showed his jailers n liquid which he said the priest had given him. Upon examina tion the liquid was found to be the yolk of an egg. Ant i-Seiiit ic Germans. Berlin, Oct. 9. —The several anti-Sem itic groupes of the empire have de cided, through their delagate In con ference at Eisenach, to combine under the name of the German Social Reform party. The extreme tendencies of the | conference were shown by the heart iness with which it received ex-Rector Ahlwardt, the most unscrupulous and blatant Jew-baiter in Germany. Fcrclhiniitl Ward's Soil.

I ON the wost coast of North 'America and Europe the heaviest rainfalls are in winter; in the interior of tho United States and Europe, in summer. THE winter of 1812 and 1813 was one of the most severe ever known in- Rus sia. a fact which partially explains the terrors of the retreat from Moscow. IN northern Europe Nordenskiuld found fresh fallen snow impregnated with a dust of carbon and iron, such as could only have como from meteors. IN 1771 an unprecedented drouth pre vailed throughout India. Scarcely any rain fell for a year, and hundreds of thousands died of famine, whole dis , tricts being depopulated. ? IN 1058 the winter in North Europe was so cold that Charles X. of Sweden crossed the Little Belt from Holstein 1 to Denmark with his whole army, in cluding cavalry, artillery and baggage train. ; IN 1887 and the following year a se ■ vcre drouth spread over North China. The loss of life was appalling, it being • estimated by tho Chinese government that 9,500,000 lives were lost from famine. THE GREAT ARTISTS. POLLA.TUOLO was the son of a poul terer. whence his name, and began his career as a wood carver. BURQKMAIK was one of the first paint ers to execute court scenes, such as coronations and marriages. GUIDO'S later works urc very inferior. They were painted in haste, to raise money for the gaining table. D'AVAKZO was the first modern painter who attempted to give an op tical illusion to his pictures. j IIOLBKIN was only sixteen years old when first engaged in painting altar pieces for tho churches in Basle. DUREB was the son of a goldsmith, and, showing an appreciation of art, was apprenticed to u draughtsman. VALEHQUEZ was a self-educated , painter. His scenes and models were generally taken from peasant life. TITIAN began to sketch before ho was four years old. His favorite models were his wife and daughter. JANSSKN'S life was made miserable by an extravagant wife, and his last years were passed in extreme want. JEAN COUSIN was originally n glass stainer, who left that business to be come the first historical painter of France. ITEMS OF INTEREST. THERE arc three times as many wid- J ows as widowers.
