tMOSnjjEHE NOW,
i.The Home Team Makes An
other Effort for last Place.
THE PHILLIES TOT AGAIN.
.Boston's Champions Beaten by the
Hustling Hoosier Team.
! WASHINGTON DOWNS CLEVELAND.
The Scotta Defeat the Scottdales for the
$100-a-Side Hatch.
GENERAL BASEBALL NEWS OP THE DAI
. The home ball club was again beaten
Jfr yesterday by the Philadelphia clnb in a
B- somewhat one-sided game. The Hoosiers
K defeated the Bostons and 'Washington beat
. tne uieveianas. J.ne j. n.ocom, amcw
team, beat the Scottdales yesterday in a
game for $100 a side.
The old, old story, not that of theological
joy and beauty, but that hackneyed tale of
how we were beaten in a baseball game has
once more to be told. The wearying and
monotonous stories of defeats of the home
team must be now just as burdensome to
those who read as it is to those who write
them. There is seldom any consoling
features in defeat; at best defeat is only de
feat and that means more or less inferiority.
&ow and again an interesting and even un
entertaining feature may be noted in de
feat, but this kind of features are rarities
of the history of tne Pittsburg ball club.
There are often excuses and Rood reasons for
defeat, but the true and only cause of yester
day's beatinc was better playing on the part of
the Philadclphias. It is not true sportsman
ship to beat around the bush, and it is only fair
to say that the home players never had a show
to win.
WEKK TOO GOOD.
The Quaker City representatives were en
tirely too good, and the umpire was not a
factor at all in brincing about the result. Tba
vistors were simply out to do business
in a business-like way and they simply shut our
fellows up. The contest was one-sided, simply
because we bud little or no chance to win. Our
representatives could not play good enough,
and that was the great stumbling block. After
this no excuse is needed, and this fact suggests
the great necessity of better ball playing if
Pittsburg is to be worthy the name of a League
baseball town.
Th. tdance amounted to 1,000 people and
. the weal- c was excellent, Everybody seemed
to be in good humor, and there seemed to be a
general presentiment all aronnd that the home
club couldn't win. Whoever shared this antic
ipation was completely on the right side, be
cause it did not need either a Casey or a San
ders to umpire to earn victory. The visitors
did some effective and timely slugging, and a
few of the local plaj era did tolerably well, but
nothing to go into ecstacies over.
BOPFINTON IS LINE.
Bufflnton pitched for the visitors and Staley
was in the box for the home players. Both
men pitched good) ball, but Buffinton had a
shade the best ol it. Staley certainly was not
in his best form. Now and again he felt all
richt, and that's the time when be fooled those
who laced him. Buffinton pitched a good and
patient game. He was now and then a little
wild, but he was ever ready to settle down; and
settle down he did with great effect. The field
ing on both sides was much below first clas?.
Fogarty did tome good and active work in cen
ter field and en bases.
The visitors commenced the slaughter. Wood
led off with a hit to right and was retired at
-second on the short hit of llallman. Myers
came up and cracked out the ball to left field
for a Lase and llallman, who bad alredy stolen
second, scored. Thompson then sent out a
good single to middle field and Myers scored,
in the second inning Fogarty got his base on a
muffed fly by Ron c.
BOWE'S bad ebkob.
He ought really to have caught the ball.
Farrar's sacrifice bit sent Fogarty to third and
a passed ball sent Clements to first and Fogarty
got home.
In the fifth inning, after Clements was out.
Wood, llallman and Myers each made a single.
Myers' single enabled both Wood and Hall
man to reach borne. Thompson's life
bit retired Myers at second base.
Thompson stole second and uot
borne on a two-bagger by Mulvey. All tho
thro runs were earned. In the sixth inning
Fogarty led off with a hit to middle. Ue stole
second and a sacrifice and a clean hit got
Fogarty home. The visitors were really sad
that they had such poor quality to go against.
The home players made their two first runs
in the fourth innine. Rowe got a safe hit and
struggled to get to third. A wild throw by
Mnlvey caused the "spill." Miller made a steal
to second on a passed ball, and Becklny got
first on a muffed throw by Farrar. Kuehne
made a sacrifice hit and White flew
out to llallman. Dunlap then made a
bit and Beckley was then put oat at the plate.
In the seventh inning the last run was added to
the list. After Dunlap and Staley were out
Sunday hit for a good single, and a lonf; single
to middle enabled Sunday to score. Tb e game
was exceedingly interesting at points and
McQuaid umpired well. Following Is the

bit by Gore, and the Giants were two ahead,

In answer to Manager Long's statement in Sun
day's Dispatch, the Crockery City Baseball
Club of East Liverpool, Ohio, wish to state that
Fltzslmmons, the "Our Boys" rleht fielder started
to umpire the game, and getting disgusted with
the kicking of trie Onr Boys1' club quit, making
the remark that they were dirty ball players and
wished him to be the same. In all decisions that
were oblected to the "Crockeries" submitted to
In order to save their patronage andhsvc the game
finished, as the game at all points was in favor of
the Crockery City team, and the object of the
"Our Boys' club was to breakup the game In a
dispute in order to save defeat.
Tne conduct of four of the "Our Boys" was
very ungentlemanly, to say the least, especially In
the seventh Inning when they went In front of the
fraud stand using profane langnage and proclaim
ed that they could both whip and defeat the
Crockery City Baseball Clnbtit any time, etc We
state the true facts In Justice to our club.

IeTICIAL XZLEOBAll TO TnX DISPATCH. 1
Buffalo, August 7. This afternoon the
grand trotting carnival began its second
week at the old driving park, now the In
ternational Pair Grounds. There was not
as large an attendance as the management
expeoted, even with' a very attractive card,
in which a stake of $5,000 was included.
The crowd made tip in enthusiasm what it
lacked in size and the betting ring did a big
business throughout. This famous course
has been rebuilt, and though not as fast as
Cleveland is still one of the best in the
country.
No very fast time was made this after
noon, the trotters being especially slow. It
was rather cool for the flyers and none of
the fast classes have yet been reached. When
the day closed orJy two events had been dis
posed of, but it took 12 heats equally divided to
decide the issue. In the 230 trot the favorite.
Reference, looted like a winner till Star Lily
was cut loose just in time to snatch the victory
from the gelding, who was not in his best form.
Marksman Maid got a heat and a second and
was then unf ortnnate in taking sick, so that she
had to be drawn, losing third money.
After a good deal of hard lnck Hal Pointer
managed to maintain his reputation as a game
pacer by getting the necessary three heats.
Geers, bis driver, drove a waiting race, keeping
behind for two beats. Some new records were
made. Red Belle 2d7 and Minnie P 2:19, drop
ping their former marks by several seconds.
T. Wood Martin, of Philadelphia, Is the start

ment of their sport. The track was in fair
condition.
Interest was generally centered in the rich
Junior Champion stakes, the value of which is
more than 30,000. Twelve starters came to
the post. Burlington, St. Carlo, the Cyclone
colt and King Hazem were scratched. Cayuga
was the favorite at 2 to 1 against. The start
was an excellent one. Devotee, Leighton and
the Kccola colt were first off, bnt Ballarat
quickly passed them and was soon in the lead
a neck before Starlight. Ballarat remained in
front until th quarter was reached. Then
Clarendon came up and led Ballarat by a neck,
followed by Starlight and Devotee. Clarendon
continued to lead, and increased his advantage
to two lengths before getting to the bead of the
stretch. At tho last furlong post Protection
came through from the rack, followed by
Chesapeake. Protection won by four lengths,
and Chesapeake got the place from Banquet
by a length ana a half. Then came Cayuga,
Avondale, Starlight. Rancocas, Devotee, Bal

The youngsters did not parade by the grand
stand before the race, and that was a great disap
pointment to the crowd. There were several ir
ritating breakaways, but finally a good start was
secured. Going up the back stretch Ballarat
made the pace, Chesapeake at his saddle girths,
Devotee and Protection cloe up. Chesapeake led
into the homestretch, with Protection pushing
Win, nnd going steady as a clock. At the last fur

STILL HATE HOPE.
There May be More Baco Meettogs at Bal
timore. Baltimore, August 8. In spite of Governor
Bowie's telegraphed statement that it must not
be understood that Pimlico is a thing of the
past because of tho omission of the fall meet
ing, it was pretty well accepted to-day in sport
ing circles that racing at Pimlico under the
Maryland Jockey Club Is ended forever, and
that a postponement of definite action until
May is simply putting off tbo inevitable.
The action came curiously soon after the
news that Washington had split and one-half
of the Ivy City club bad purchased a new race
track. There was no loneer anv chance of mn.

GOVERNOR BOWIE'S STATEMENT,
Ho Says the Pimlico Races Will Not be
Abandoned,
Sabatoga, N.Y., August 6. G overnor-Bowio
says that the report relative to the future
plans of the Pimlico Racing Association pub
lished this morning is in many points errone
ous. "The association," he says, "has not relin
quished the lease of the grounds and has no
intention of doing so. We omitted the fall
meeting this year because it would clash with
big meetings in the vicinity of New York, and
the bookmakers would not leave these for
the Pimlico or any other meeting. We have
always given larger purses than the Saratoga
and Western meetings, and have made money
at every meeting except the last. The reports
that Ivy City is an Injury to Pimlico are untrue.
The fact is that each is a benefit to the other.
It should not be understood by the omission of
our fall meeting that Pimlico is a thing of the,
past."

rsrxciAZ, tzlzobaic to the DrsraTcrr.I
New Yobk, August 6. The Sun to
morrow will publish a letter from Henry
Clews on the proposed world's fair of 1892.
Mr. Clews describes the character of build
ings required permanent structures that
could be afterward nsed for other purposes
and says the enterprise should be gotten
np as a national joint stock company,with
limited liability, capital not less than 15,
OOOjOOO to $20,000,000, to be issued in certifi
cates of $10 and upward, and withont limit
to each subscriber. The Governor and State
of New York should also be asked to con
tribute. He says:
The effect of having such an exhibition wonld
be to benefit the country at large immensely,
as it would be a great attraction to draw for
eigners from all sections of the world here with
money to spend and witness what this country
has accomplished in its centennial progress
under a. republican form of government. As
an evidence of the result of this flow of for
eigners to our shores, it would be well to make
a comparison with what tbo Paris Exposition
has done in attracting Americans this year.
During the French Exposltlonthls country has
had to suffer from the army of travel abroad to
the tune of not less than a draiu bordering
upon from $150,000,000 to $175,000,000. If wo can
get this back In 1892, in the same way as it has
been attracted abroad from us, then it would
be but a fair reciprocity treaty.

A CHARGE OF PIRACY.
One ofthe Canadian Cabinet Intimates
That Seaman Hawkins
MAT BE ARRESTED ON THAT PLEA.
Great Joj in the Dominion, Over the Black
Diamond's Escape.
CALLING TEE YANKEES TOUGH NAMES.
A General Feeling That the Imperial Government
, Should Take a Hand.
It Is probable that the Canadian Govern
ment will take-no immediate official action
upon the seizure and escape of the Black
Diamond. A Cabinet Minister, however,
speaks of the possibility of arresting John
Hawkins, the "prize crew," as a pirate, in
order to force aaeettlement. There is a gen
eral feeling of satisfaction over the action
of the vessel'srcaptain.
lEFSCIAIilTXLZQnAH TO TUX DISPATCH.!
Ottawa, August 6.-The Minister of
Customs was officially informed of the ar
rival of the Black Diamond at Victoria to
day. The Deputy Minister of Fisheries
said to-day 'that he did not res-ret the seizure
of these schooners, as he believed the seal
fisheries should be protected from the whole
sale slaughter and devastation to which they
have for a long time past been subjected.
He has no donbt that some joint arrange
ment will be arrived at between the mari
time powers to protect the seal fisheries,
which are now rapidly becoming extermi
nated. A prominent official of the customs de
partment said to-day: "We shall not take
any action on the matter. What is there to
do? The United States authorities only pnt
aboard a,prize crew of one man on purpose
to allowthe Black Diamond to effect her
escape. They wanted-to make it a warning
to other sealers, and, after doing this, it was
the easiest way of getting out of a grave
difficulty; but the Government
WILL TAKE NO ACTION
except to forward all the papers to the colo
nial office, and the imperial authorities will
have the management of the case. I do not
think, however, that they will do any
thing." Sir Hector Langevin, Minister of
Public Works, referred to the possibility of
the captain of the Black Diamond ordering
the arrest of the sailor placed in charge of
his vessel by the commander of the Rush as
a pirate, which he believed wonld soon
brintr matters to a settlement between Orpal
'Britain and the United States regarding
xtennng oea.
Another dispatch says: There was con
siderable chuckling here at the news from
Victoria of the safe arrival there of the
sealer Black Diamond, although there is
naturally much resentment still existent at
the outrageous conduct of Captain Shepard
in forcibly boarding the vessel and break
ing open the ship's lockers. Captain
Shepard's action and that of his Govern
ment affords a very remarkable contrast to
the treatment extended to United States
fishinc vessels that have been seised or de-
itained for transgressions of the Canadian
.fishery laws on the Atlantic. Take as an
'instance the case of the schooner Mattie
Wmship, seized off Sydney in June last
CANADIAN COURTESY.
That vessel was released on a bond for
$3,000, and subsequently the Canadian Gov
ernment intimated its willingness to give
up the vessel on the payment of $2,000 and
the expenses, while in the case of the Cana
dian vessels seized in Behring Sea in 1887,
a number of them have been allowed to go
to decay, and in other cases when it was
TirODOsed to bond them, the amnnnt nf e-
curity demanded was so far in excess of
their actual value that their owners refused
to have anything to do with them. With
regard to others it is learned that up to the
present it has been impossible to secure a
revaluation of the seized vessels.
Apart altogether from the recent seizure
the conduct of Captain Shepard must of ne
cessity engage the most serious attention of
the home Government. In this case a vessel
having a British register, and flying the
British flag, is boarded on the high seas and
forcibly searched. Under these circum
stances it issurely due to British vessels,
pursuing auegitimate calling, that the Im
perial Government should, without further
procrastination, take prompt and decisive
measures to protect its commerce beyond
"the territorial waters of the United States
,or any other country.
Collector Hawley telegraphed the Minis
ter of Customs later that the Black Dia
mond's papers, clearance, coasting license,
'and certificate of registry,, as well as her
salted skins, were taken from her.

WHI HE NETEE MAEEIED.
A Sorasnce In the Life of General Lefevrc,
of Ohio.
Chicago Herald.:
Few people know why General Ben
Lefevre, of Ohio, never married, and it re
mains for the Omnibus to tell the reason.
After the rebel army surrendered he was sta
tained at Salisbury, N. C, and at this time
Ben"was a dashing, handsome 6-foot Major
of perhaps 160 pounds. Among the people
of quality in the town was a family named
Carr. The old gentleman had been a Major
in the Confederate army, and at one time
was chased ten miles through the Carolina
sands by a Yankee sergeant Both traveled
at a double-quick, and in the race the Major
wore his toenails down so that they dropped
off after he was captured. Naturally this
embittered the family against the Yanks,
and Carr's three daughters swore never to
speak to one. Major Lefevre was on the
General's staff at this period, and one day
Carr came up to headquarters complaining
that some soldiers had broken into his house
and robbed him. He wanted a guard sent
around, and invited Major Ben to call at
the honse and look over the premises.
Next dav Lefevre dropped around while
Carr was absent; he walked into the parlor
and there saw a very pretty girl of about 17.
The major bowed and introduced himself,
but the young lady turned her back on him.
The gallant officer was not to be repulsed in
this way, however. Pauline Carr held out
for a week and then succumbed to the
Major's vigorous siege; at the end of six
weeks theyWere engaged to be married.
Then Lefevre went north to his home in
Ohio and broke the news to his family. As
he expected there was a big fuss made, and
the women folks were especially furious
that he shonldWant to marry the daughter
of a rebel. They made It so warm for Ben
that he decided! to postpone his marriage
until the storm abated somewhat; so he
wrote the girl to this effect
Three months 'later, to his chagrin and
disappointment, htreceived a marked paper
informing him of Pauline's marriage to a
Vankee quartermaster who had stayed
South. The General never recovered from
this love affair and has remained a single
man. He is now attorney for Cal Brice, in
Hew York, and rnnjor has it that he asked
Mrs. Frank Leslie to marry him two years
ago, bnt the story lacks confirmation.
KNOCKED OUTBY ELECTEIC1TT.
Singular Shock Sustained by a Niagara
Falls Hotel Clerk.
rSFZCIAt, TELIOBAjl TO TUX DISPATCn.1
Buffalo, August 6. At the Niagara
House, Niagara Falls, one evening recently
Jacob Fetter, the clerk, having finished his
labor for the day, sat down on a window-sill
in the office and rested his head against a
small iron box nsed as a cut-off of the in
candescent light. In a few moments he
leaped through the open window to speak
with some one in the hall, and in doing
so his right hand came in contact with a
steam pipe. A blinding flash occurred,
illuminating his whole body. A man pres
ent sprang to the rescue, and with a super
human effort pulled Mr. Fetter away. He
dropped to the floor, and his shrieks caused
a crowd to collect, among whom was "a
doctor, who undertook to restore the man to
consciousness. Another doctor was sum
moned, and in a short time Mr. Fetter
revived.
His hair was cut off where his head had
come in contact with the box, and a large
and deep hole was fonnd in his scalp. The
hand which had rested on the steam pipe
was blistered. When Mr. Fetter became
conscious he asked what had happened,
saying that he felt no pain. He only com
plained of the burn on his hand, and was
not aware of the injury to his head. It is
thought impossible that he canrecover,
FAITHFULNESS NOT FOEGOTTEN;
A Young Gorman Laborer Beeelves 823,000
far Keeping n Promise.
rSTBClAl.TXUQRAM TO THXDISFATCB.1
Bibminohau, Conn.J" August 6. Chas.
H. Kessel, a laborer in the employ of the
Birmingham" Iron , Foundry, received a
check on Sunday for $22,000, left him by his
grandfather In Germany. It was a-surprise
to Kessel, who had not heard of the old gen
tleman's death. When he left Germany four
years ago, it was understood between him
and his grandfather that the money was to
be left to him if he should remain single and
take care of his mother and sister as long as
they lived, or nutil the sister was married.
Kessel came to New Haven and married
a pretty German girl. He sent word to his
grandfather, and supposed that he would be
deprived of the promised inheritance. He
was the more surprised, therefore, to get the
check. He determined, however, to carry
out part of his promise to his grandfather,
and to-day he presented to his mother and
sister $15,000. He will establish himself in
business with what remains. He earned
but $2 a day in the foundry.
THE FOREIGN GLASS TEADE
Is la a Terr Bad Way nnd the Workers
Are Actually Saflerlng.
Washington, August 6. John B.
Howes, commercial agent of the United
States to Beichenberg, in a report to the
State Department nnder date of April 15,
calls attention to a depression of prices in
the glass trade. Business has also decreased
to an enormous extent. Exports to the
United States for the quarter ended March
31, were 136,000 florins less than in the same
quarter in 1886. Wages of workmen have
been reduced since 1887, so that they earn
only from one-fifth to one-half what they
did, or 21 to 28 cents a day. Mr. Howes
says:
Of course no man can live on 20 krentzers
(8 cents) a day. much less support a family,
and the result is that there is much suffering
among the giassworkers. Subscriptions bare
been taken up for tbe relief of the starving
families, and in the last five weecs alone over
600 people have been assisted and over 8,000
gulden expended by tbe committee bavlne the
matter In ehartro. Cases of scurw and "hnn-

prevailing misery.

New Yobk, August 6. Louis Curtis, a
piano dealer, has concluded a horse sale that
will be of wide interest to horsemen in this
country. He disposed of a trotter that for
the last three years has been taking it easy
grazing on a farm in Passaic. It is reported
to have fetched the handsome figure of
$3,750. The trotter can't go fast, but the
fact that it can trot at all is what makes it
valuable. It has only three legs, having
come into the world minus its fourth leg.
Its birth created a stir in Jersey three years
ago.
It is claimed that thb. is the only three

was Ira Jonson, of Milwaukee, who is said

DELICATE ANDDANGEROUS.
The Most Sensitive Obiset in the World Ex
plainsd, snd the Dinger it Is in Made
Clear.
"Touch the pupil of 70ur eye and see if It
hulls," said one club man to another.
"Bo you think I'm an Idiot?" was tbe reply
"Don'tjon suppose I tne w It will hurt."
I (And Tet the same man would not besltate to
overload and abuse his stomach, which Is coated
in preclselr the same manner as his eye; and
which Is tbe most important, the most sensitive,
the most delicate organ In the body. Tbe mncoos
membrane lining of the stomach is like tbe mn
coos covering of nab, only It Is a thousand times
more sensitive. And yet. upon the surface of the
stomach lire millions and millions of germs; In
deed It furnishes tbe only great borne for germs.'
These little animals lire upon It. prey upon It
constantly, and came pun. There Is always dan
ger and a solemn warning lrom pain In the stom
ach. Napoleon the Great never knew fear In bat
tle, bnt was an abject coward when spasms seized
his stomach. And why not? Theynean sudden
sickness, perhaps quick death. Tne slightest
pain ln,the stomach or intestines should strike
terror. Delay may be fatal!
For 50 years there has beep but one standard,
one certain cure for all pains and sudden disor
ders or the stomach, and that is Perry Davis
Paln-Klller. It Is a pure, a powerful, a perfect
remedy. It is used in every cholera country on
tbe globe. It Is carried In every ship that sails.
There Is not a missionary station In the world
where it cannot be found. Itev. B. H. Bodley,
missionary at Lncknow. India, says: 'There is
nothing like Perry Davis' Paln-Klller for Cholera .
and similar diseases." ltbas the unqutlilled In
dorsement of tbe medical profession In all cholera
countries, and It is a household remedy. It should
be kept constantly on hand, for summer dangers
are always sudden, and it Is far better to prevent
than to cure. Don't neglect an bonestwsmlng.

ADVICE FOE ALL.
Sid and sorrowfully glance into the future
many sick, persons who suffer pain and wbo
find an early grave thronch mistaken treat
ment. Do not forget that the proofs are hero
tbat my celebrated all-Uerman remedies can
not be excelled. Thousand of patients have I
met wbo said: T was not a dav withont medi
cine and grew worse every day." They are cor
rect. Where dangerous operations bare been
previously undertaken my remedy has cured In
a short time, ily remedies cure, in fact, most
of thecbronic diseases where no other medi
cine gives help. Dally sick persons come to
me and complain that they have spent 150. tlUO,
tl.OOO among doctors, bnt were not 5 cents'
worth better. When these doctors had received
the money tbey left the city by moonlight.
Thousands in Fittsbnrg and vicinity bare been
cured within a year by my wonderful remedies.
Look at the following, a few of those wbo were
cored In as man v weeks as they were yearsslck.
Mr. Warner, chronic rheumatism, 2 years.
Mr. H. C'onrail. chronic diarrhoea, t years.
Miss Weaver, epilepsy, years.
Mrs. Emmler.eye trouble, nearly blind. M years.
Mrs. I Mabone suffered 6 years with spinal dis
ease, nervousness and liver trouble, leading to
dropsy.
Mrs. Dick? to, asthma, 10 years.
Miss Johnson, dropsy. C years.
Mrs. Uuntlier. cancer. 2years.
Mrs. Kle nmann suffered twoyears with terrible
cramps. She 19 cured and suffers no more.
It the disease Is not to lie recognized by any
other evidence, then the urine is the best means
ot diagnosis: It shows what and where the trouble
Is. As soon as It leaves Its normafstraw color,
you .tiould not fall to use my celebrated remedies
and be cured from tbe very root of the trouble.
