The mneh talked of, long looked fur.
and widely heralded gauiu between tho
??Crows" and tho "Truckers" is nt hint
a reality, aud all tho speculation in?
dulged in, aud wagers luado aio now
settled, that is ho tar uh this ouu game
is concerned. But there is consider
erablo uneasiness ou both sides ol the
river as to the outcuuio of the two
games to bo played, one this afternoon
und tho other to morrow, lint, as a
brief resume ot the gauio aa playod
yesterday will bo of more interest tu
the readers of The Viwunian than
auythiug else just now, it will there
fore proceed alougjtbat liue.
Brandt, the big Chambersbnrg boy,
was scheduled to do tho important
work for tbo Portsmoulb8,aod Week's.
INorfolks left bander, was pitted
against hiru, Everybody was ou the
tiptoe ol expectancy, as they naturally
thought a good game tvonld follow,
Itut how much they wero mistaken,
enn bo learned from the following
facts:
Tho pong sounded and tho "1 ruck
ers" ran into tbo field willl enorgy, for
which they received tbo plaudits of
thoir admirers, Hraudt Stepped into
tho box, rolled the ball around in bis
hands aim looked every inch a success*
fnl twirlor, but appearnncos uro de?
ceptive, as it proved oil this occasion.
Mills, tho lirst Norfolk man up, got
bis base on balls. O'Hagau possessed
bis ?oul with pntieuco uud ho loo
amuled slowly down to tho initial ban,
Bending Mills to seeond. Corcoran
ehewed bis "cud" and stuttered a
while, but bo was making hay an
Brandt still continued to be wild, and
in duo conrso of time "Oorkoy joined
bis boon compnuious ou tho bases,
which were lull, and by thu way ho was
tho "rooter" ou the right Hold bleach
ers, who held down tho important
posiliou of coachor.
T?te, dear old "l'op," not dear from
a financial standpoint, but just simply
dear to the hearts of the Norfolk
"li.ii.I.s lor what ho has done for
them. Ho has been as balm of diced
to tbe wouudod soul, having uoconi
pllbhed tb<s teat ol briuglug up tin' lail
end "Clams'' to a probable third place
posiliou. At auy rate, "Pop" 'late
wauted to bit tbu ball, but Brandt was
not improving iu stcadiuese, and the
old gent got u move on luui when .Mr,
Mitchell said lour balls aud trottet)
along to first base, thus forcing in
Mills. Thu Portsmouth* then ho d a
sort of a cotifereuce, and us u resnlt
Willie waB takeu out ot tho bu\ and
Moynihan substituted.
'lhero were then three "Crows"
perched ou t e bases and one had
crossed the plate, Hrandt wanted to
Btay iu, nud when he foitud that bo
had to oomc out he showed his temper
by throwing the ball down upon the
ground bttweeu home plate uud third
base, which bad bread O'Hagau was
quiok to seize, uud the result wan thai
he scored nud thu other men ou the
bases were advanced. Thornton, the
next "Crow" to coinenp, hit a Inug
high 11 y to Hargrove, wLo t Oi time
to drop it. Another ruu came in. (Jeter,
the little, thick, short, stout man, got
bis base on balls. "Uid Soldier" .loams
sent a "ocuui" out lor two bags, and
the bases were deserted, save the "Old
Soldier" Crow, who tat calmly ou stc
ozid awuitiug further development?.
Coto went out by a fly to "Httrgy,"
bnt Weeks,contrary to all expectations,
lined oat u two base hit ami Joanne
scored, making seven runs tallied and
only ouo out, Tho "rooters" were in
a stuto of such generosity that they ad
vis-jd the "Crows" to get out lor the
feor darkness would reach them before
the inuihg was completed, but they ac?
cepted no such advice, but stuck to
their hitting. Mills hit o very slow
one to Reed, who committed au orror,
aud, of conrso, Mills was safe on first,
U'Uaguu lor tho second tuuo in this
inning, got his base on balls. This
again tilled the bases with Corcoran at
tho bat, but tins yong iellow hit to
Tbnrston, who, with Mangan's n-bisi
nnce, completed a double play, uud the
Bidu was retired with seveu ruus to
* Loir credit, off tv\o hits, errors of
Hirgrovo, Oaville and Heed, Cavilio's
error consisting of a vury poor throw
iu of .loaues bit, thu ball going wild,
allowing a runner to .?coro.
Portsmouth umde two runs in tho
first innmg ou u base on hallH to Hail
moo, Oaviile'a hit and errors of Weeks,
Thornton and Mills. Hut that whs all.
Not another "Trucker" crossed tho
platu for the baiauce of tho game,while
the Norfolks tallied four more one in
tho second, one in thu fourth, ouo iu
tho seventh, and thu last and eleventh
run crossed tho plate iu tho ninth,
winch was not necessary to have at an,
a - the j/.-ui, ? wus won in the first inning.

that should he lully investigated.
Ollioor Bees testified that thu time
that ho was uhargod with drnuKeuuuss
wus ou thu 20th uf <luuo, tho day ou
whioh ho received his lurlough,
'out that tho etiargo was utterly with
out foundation, aud thai tho lirst ho
know of it wan when ho was cited to
appear before hiH church to answer to

in bringing tho churgu against him.
Tho liourd told bun that ho should
huvo gouu btdoro tho meeting of tho
oliiciai members of his church nud

go militated against him.

of Mr. Buss was ltt-tiuicd uud wholly
without Inundation.
Mr. Verdier was disposed to oxhon
orata Otticer lia-n on thu statements in
tins letter, Cant. Boltou iuierposed
tho objuctiou that the letter was simply
tbe opinion ol one man who was not a
member ol the church und therefore
could not have tho same weight with

Mike I'orry iuformed bun ol what ha i
occurred and told bun he did not sou
how an oflicci could be guilty ol such
uu not, and asked him what to do in
regard to the matter.
Officer Curtis was called, but his
testimony had hitle or uu bearing on
tho case.
Salbu Sanford, Oiltcors Sykes and
Ciriiliu, Win. l huroghgiK d, l no. Walker
and Willie Johusou were ueard for tho
dofenae, Their ovideuoe, with the ex?
ception of Salbe Sauford, tended
strongly tobnak down tbe character
of the evidence agaiust OttioorSuydor.

Hoard ou the merits of tho case, utter J
which the Hoard went iuto
EXEClTlVE SESSION
to settle tho matter aud rcudcrod tho
following decision:
That thu board after mature deliber?
ation Ii ol the opinion that tho charges
against i>t>icer Snyder uro totally un?
founded. The testimony for tho prose
cutiou as boruo out iu tho trial estab?
lishes the fact thai ouu oi the principal
! witnesses against tbo officer, Miku
Perry, colored, has been tried
und convicted of larceny before
tho courts uud sentenced to si\
mouths coufiticmout in the Nor
folk jail, and that the remainder of the
wituo&ses, including tho girl Maddie
Cousins, are of liko bad character,
nud their testimony cannot bo bolitv^d
by the board, and Ihoy do therefore
honorably acquit Officer Suydor oi thu
charge.
? It is further recommended by the
board thai the Commonwealth's Attor
