The result of the gamo was most satisfactory to tho big crowd, as the homo team won In a canter. Espcr, who held tho Phillies down to six hits on Thursday, was In tho points for tho visitors, but the left-handed twirler just lasted two Innings when Mercer was substi tuted. Such slugging S3 was seen In tho Phillies' Bocond Inning has seldom been witnessed In this city. Out of tho 6ix runs scored flvo were earned. When tho smoto had cleared live two-baggers and a homo run wero sot down against Sir. Espor. It wa3 a splendid exhibition of hitting tho ball and sufficient to retire Esper to the bench. Mercer did well, but the game was already gono and his good work went for naught Even Sam Thomp son, who never could hit Espcr before, got in a couple of solid whacks and obtained rovengo for previous futile efforts. Career did tho pitching for tho homo team and held the Senators down to three hits, but ho gave nlno bases on balls. Several of theso came together in the sixth Inning, when Washington scored two runs, all they made in tho game. Abbey singled to left, and after Mercer had filed out to Thompson, Car sey gave threo bases on balls in succession, forcing in tho first run. Sullivan then made a scratch hit, scoring McGuire. Radford left threo men on bases by Hying out to Allen. Tho rhillles fielded superbly and mado a fine Impression by their clean work, the spec tators being liberal In applause. Tho do"feat of Thursday has been wiped out in tho memo ries of the fans by the victories of Friday and to-day, and Irwin's men claim they will surely bag Monday's game.

New Yobe, April 2L Never in the history of baseball In this city bos so brilliant an as semblage watched a struggle for supremacy on the diamond as was present at Eastern Park to-day to see the Brooklyns and Bostons play the opening championship gome of tho season. That baseball has again come to be the noDular amusement was clearly shown by tho turnstile count of an attendance of 19,200. The grand stand was Jammed, as were the covered stand and bleachers, while the over flow stood paoked against the ropes which en circled the outfield. The only disappoint ment was that the Bridegrooms wero white washed. At no tlmo during the game did they have a chance to win. Long, Lowe, and Tuoker mado three bril liant doublo plays. Tho other features were the fielding of Treadway and Bannon and the batting of Corcoran, Nash, and Tucker. Nash knocked the ball over'the left field fenco for a homo run. Tho secret BOSTON.

A young man named Dalzell faced tho Georgetown sluggers at Capital Tark ester day aftornoon, and when the latter got through Mr. Dalzell'a delivery had been pun nishod for nineteen hits, including threo homers, two triples, and one double, with tho remainder all singles. It was an easy victory for Georgetown, and the Columbian Univer sity bovs wero outclassed la every depart ment of tho national game. Tho team from over Rock creek put up a slashing good game, their batting and fielding being both excellent. Little Ilennon pitched good ball, letting the Columbians down for one run and four hits in tho nine innings. Carmody gavo a pretty exhibition of field ing, making two circus catches of fly balls. Murphy also did finely at third, while Sulli van and Iiarloy hit the sphere hard and often. Ilennon made" the circuit of the bases four times, and proved to bo a good all-round player. G'reene and Bolway, of tho Y. M. C. A. team, did tho best work for tho Columbians, whilo Shlller looked after second In good style. Tho only run made by Columbian University was the product of a base on balls to Hume, Laughlin's sacrifice, and singles by McCammon and Greene. Georgetown scored ono or moro runs in all bnt the fifth and eighth innings. In tho ninth tbo unusual feat was accomplished of the cntiro George town team scoring nino runs before a man was put out.

MANY FASHIONABLES PRESENT Capt H. M. Earle Led the Befenderi of the Beds to Victory Amid the Applauso of the Spectators If atches Will Be Played Every Saturday During the Season. The first game of polo over played in tho, District attracted a largo number of the fash ionables to the Chevy Chase Club grounds .yesterday afternoon, nnd the new sport was' mOBt successfully introduced. One year ago H. M. Earle purchased a couple of ponies and interested several fellow members of the Chevy Chase Club in polo. The result was seon in tho game yesterday, when the partici pants, mounted on ponies, gave a creditable exhibition, and from the enthusiasm dis played by tho spectators their offorU woro warmly appreciated. There were four playors on each side, known as the Reds and Blacks, tho Reds being rep resented by H. M. Earlo, captain, Collier, Marrow, and Halloway, and the Browns by Broome, captain, Ryder, Moore, and L. Earlo. In addition to tho ponies a ball and mallets comprise tbo paraphernalia of the game. Six periods of ten minutes each wero occupied in play, with flve-mlnuto intervals for rest In the first periods the time expired with out a goal, and the Blacks drew first blood in tho second, when Mooro made goal. Then tho Beds tied tho score, and the Blacks followed with another goal in the fourth period. Amid applauso tho Bods ngaln tied the score in the fifth. Tho sixth and last period of play was hotly contested, tho ball going from one end of the field to tho other, tho Reds finally scoring, thereby winning tho game by 3 goals to 2. Owing to tho constant action the game is similar, to a succession of pony races and necessarily interesting to onlookers. Tho Beds were greatly aided in winning through tho clever team work of Halloway and H. M. Earle. When one had the ball the other's In terference was somewhat akin to football and was very successful. As a result of the Interest taken by tho club members regular games will bo played every Saturday, and later on matches may be ar ranged with out-of-town clubs. Yesterday's contest was rofereed by Capt. Edwards, V. S. A., who gave entire satisfaction. Among those who drovo or rode out were Mrs. and the Misses Boardman, Miss Mc Millan, Miss Edie, Mrs. Butterfleld, MUs Morrow, MiJS O'Donneli, the Misses New lands, Miss Payton, the Misses Wallach, tbo Misses ration, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Legare, Miss Carroll, Mr. and Misses Alexandor Le gato, Mrs. Pierce, Mls3 Nichols, the Misses Slendonca, tho Misses Uorstman, Miss Wads worth.

CORBETT WELL RECEIVED. America's Star Pugilist Made a Favorable Impression on tho English. London, April 21. James J. Corbett, cham pion pugilist of tho world, made his first ap pearance on the stage in England at Drury Lano theater this evening. The champion was greeted by a large audlonco, but thcro were many vacant scats in the pit and in the gallerlos, where the largest crowd was ex pected. The entrance of Mr. Corbett upon the stage was loudly cheored, and throughout the play tho actor-pugilist won considerable applause. "Gentlemen Jack," howovor, was con demned generally as a play, but as a means of exhibiting the champion it was pro nounced a decided success. The punching hag scene was a positive and startling revelation to the British public. They were perfectly astounded at tho clovor display mado by the champion and loudly demanded "encoro," until the American kindly obliged the audience by a second ex hibition of his skill at bag-punching. When Corbett appeared, stripped for battle, in the last act, his form and appearance called forth loud demonstrations of approval, nnd at tho end of the act he was called before tho curtain amid cries of "sneocli." Tho critics who passed opinions upon Cor bett this evening after having seen htm in tho training scene and stripped In tho last act are unanimous in the opinion that ho is pro bably tho most perfectly trained and skillful boxer ever before the public, and nobody wonders' that Mitchell suffered defeat at his hands.

AFFAIRS IN INDIAN TERRITORY. Senate Committee Sent to Investigate Re turns With Information. Senators Teller and Piatt, of tho Senato committeo which was sent to Indian territory two weeks ago to investigate tho relations of the Indians and tho whito ccttlcrs, have re turned and wero in their seaU yesterday. Speaking of tho condition of nftairs in tho territory, Senator Teller said it was very un satisfactory, and that be had told the Indians that ho should recommend to Congress that n change bo made. Ho says that In some parts of the territory there are ten whito porsons to one Indian and that the whites have no rights of citizenship at all. They are not even per mitted to send their children to tho Indian schools, which outide of tho towns nrc tho only schools, nnd justico is very loosely ad ministered, owing to tho system which pre vails. He told them that it they hail not in vited tho whites to tho territory they could have continued their present system, but with the whites there at their invitation something, would have to be done for the improvement of their condition. Senator Toller favors tho establishment of n government upon tho lines of tho ordinary territorial form of gov ernment, nnd thinks tho lands should be di vided in severalty among tho Indians nnd a part of each man's holdings made inalienable. Ho also thinks thnt Immediate- steps should be taken to improve the court facilities. Testimonial nnd Request to Mr. Hlral.

THE DAY NEAR AT HAND Mass Meeting of the Local Cornmon wealers Enthusiastically Attended. GLADLY WELCOME THE ARMY Coxeys Crowd Will Not Come Here Searing Anns Commonweal Song Extra Precau tions Being Mado for Guarding the Treas ury and tho Capitol Mora Police. There was an enthuslastio meeting of the people In sympathy with tho movement of the commonweal last night at Coxey headquar ters, corner Four-and-a-half street and Penn sylvania avenue northwest, to perfect ar rangements for meeting and entertaining tbo army upon Its arrival in tho city. The hall was crowded. The meeting was called to orderly Col. A. E. Bedstone, who requested tho election of a chairman. A. M. Cook was pelocted, but ho was not present, and Mr. J. R. Mahoney wa3 unanimously elected to the chair. On the platform were tho speakers of tho ovenlng, Mrs. Anna L. Diggs, CoL Redstone, Mr. Y. Dewitt, and ex-Congressman Wiso, of Penn sylvania. An earnest opening address was made by John R. Mahoney, in which ho said that he was a Coxeylto only so far as any man would go out in his feelings toward an other man in distress. Ho had great admira tion and sympathy for this band of men crossing tho mountains despito tho severe snowstorms and ice, and favored the move ment, inasmuch as tbo idea was to relieve the distress of thousands of persons all over tbo country. Tho people should exert their Inflnenco to have the army met with loaves of bread and not with fixed bayonets. Col. Redstone said thnt arrangements had been made for muslo at the mass meetings, and Introduced Mr. A. Tregana, who will bo in charge. Then tho audience sang tho six verses of "Tho Commonweal Song," ending each verse with the rousing chorus: "Hurrah! Hurrahl let Congress hear our plea. Hurrah! Hurrah! the people now decree. Laws that speak for Justice and for true hu manity. While truth la marching on to victory." Mrs. Anna L. Diggs, of Kansas, then ad dressed the meeting. She compared the Coxey army to the body of men who marched on the Capitol yesterday. The difference be tween tho two was that the men of yesterday were able to come in cars, wear good clothes, and stop at hotels. They represented corpor ations or moneyed concerns, and asked for the passage of certain laws that would benefit the capitalists, while the Coxey band are tramping across the mountains, sleeping under the chilly canopy of heaven, and they ask legislation in the Interest of the whole population to benefit every legitimate indus try In the country, and not for any particular class. Tho men are coming not as Republic ans or Democrats.' but as American citizens, and If there ore any thieves or tramps in the city the people will bo protected by the Coxey men. Mr. Roberts, of Tennessee, said that they were there last nlgbt, not as citizens of Wash ington, bnt as representatives of the whole country. The movement Is to carry out a re lief principle for the people of this country, and Congress will not decide the question on which so much depends, but the people will. Ho mado some decidedly emphatic rerrnrks concerning the arrest of the rrimrose men, and referred to Judge Kimball as tho "shoe maker Judge." Ex-Congressman Wise, of Pennsylvania,, said that tho men who were coming wero born and educated as citizens of the United States, nnd their conduct would bo no refle tion upon the people. He had faith in Con gress and faith in the pollco force, and be lieved that the men would be treated fairly. The final speech was mado by Mrs. Clara Colby, editor of the Woman's Tribune. Committees were appointed as follows: On public comfort, G. O. Cook. P. J. White, J. DeWitt, P. J. Dougherty, P. J. Maddigan, T. H. Godney, Mrs. GofT, Mrs. Maltby, Mrs. Da vis, Mrs. Woodard, Mrs. Diggs and Mr. and Mrs. Tragena; on reception and demonstra tion, G. W. Bell, J. J. Earing, A. A. Reagan, L. B. White, T F. Fisher. Col. T. P. Roberts, R. J. Bell and M. J. Colbert; on permit and location, J. E. Mahonev, G. A. Cook, J. De Witt, Mrs. Golf and Mrs. Clara Colby; to can vass labor organizations. S. Maltby, C. Cole man, Milford Spond, Mildred Hobbs and Mr. Steiner. 3Ir. G. A. Cook offered to pay rent for a suitable location for tho encampment of tho army. As soon as ho mado this offer he re quested to have his name taken off tho com mittee on permits and locations. Representative Colleen, of Wyoming who is claimed ns a supporter to tho Coxeyites, oc cupied n scat on the platform. M. J. De Witt donated the use of his six horse tally-ho, from the roof of which tho gospel of tho good roads will be preached by local enthusiasts at the street corners. A resolution was adopted, to be sent to the House Committee on Military Affairs, to which the recommendation of Congressman Boen In regard to furnishing tents and en campment grounds to tho commonealers, requesting that they report this resolution favorably to tho House at onco and tako Im mediate action upon it.

As Thb Times man entered tho colonel was examining a big plug of tobacco with wbioh he had just been presented, and to which was attached a card that bore this legend: "For CoL Redstone. To keep the Coxey army norves quiet 'They havo bit off more than they can chew.' " "Who havo bitten off moro than they can chew, the army or Its antagonists?" "No matter, but the Coxey boys say that the stuff chews all right." "Any fresh news in relation to tho move ment?" !Yes. I have received word fromGoorgo Francis train that he will come hero and hire a large hall, in which the Coxeyites may bivouac free of cost. Train says that the Coxey commonweal is only the flying battal ion of 4,000,000 American citizens with hun gry stomachs. He claims that ho turned on tbe psychic force that set the Coxey army in motion. Ho will deliver several speeches during his sojourn here." "Colonel," said The Times man, "what ever became of the loaf of bread that was sent from Arkansas in care of President Cleve land for the benefit of the Coxey army?" "It Is as yet in n mysterious hiding placo. The express company agreed to deliver it at the commonweal headquarters if not left In tho care of tho person to whom it was di rected. It should bo forwarded to Its destina tion." "Yes," spoke up one of the Coxeyites in tho hall, "wo want It that we may have it photographed and scatter tho pictures of it all over the land as a souvenir of tho move ment." "Colonel," queried The Times commis sioner, "what of all this talk that trouble is being created for Coxey by the 'Unknown,' tho 'Veiled Woman, ct aLV" "Bot! Nothing In it!

Organization of a farmer's army, several hundred strong, with a march to Washing ton as tho object, and the movement confined to Virginia and Maryland, is the substance of a letter received at the Interior Department yesterday. Tho informant is a farmer of Fau quier county, Va., who asserts that there are well-founded rumors of a general organized movement among the farmers. Ho declares that they will come to Wash ington to demand an explanation from Coxey for demanding protection frjm the govern ment when tho farmers have not yet taken action. Farmers, it is claimed, have no rep resentation in tho Ohioan's rank nnd file nnd a demand for General Coxey 's reasons for tho discrimination is one of the objects of tho trip. Tbe scheme is looked upon by tho officials as a hoax. MORE HAWAIIAN LETTERS. The President Again Transmits Diplomatic Correspondence to Congress.

There appearing to be some misunderstand ing as to tbe effect to the oath, Hon. W. O. mith, attorney genernl, makes the following "authori tattvo statement on the subject : "The word 'oppose' In the form of tho oath relates to the duties of the taking it as voters aud as delegates tho farmer binding themselves In vote only for such persons as are opposed to a ra-establtshment of the monarchy, and tho latter as members of tho convention binding themselves to worlc in the convention against the introduction of any provision in the new con stitution tending to a re-establishment of the monarchy. The word 'resist' was in tho first draft of tbe oath and was stricken out as pos sibly misleading."
