*% THE BALL VERY HARD. St. Paul's Leather Larrnpers Give the La Crosse Men Plenty to Do in Chasing the Sphere. The Match Makers Badly Done Up By the Lads Who Appear in the Minneapolis Uniform. Eau Claire Makes Sixteen Errors in a Successful Attempt to Lose to Milwaukee. Dcs Moines Takes a Game From Dv- Detroit Laid Out by Boston. It has been hinted around pretty freely of late that St. Paul could not bat when hits were needed. This is not always true. It was not true yesterday. The hits of the home team were suffi ciently numerous and "sequential"' to suit the most exacting base ball crank. In the first inning live singles, a double and three bases on balls, well inter larded with errors, yielded ten runs, and in the ninth the heaviest single inning . slugging ever seen in this city was done. After Roche had got first on a muff at center held, and been thrown out trying to steal second, Pickett, Crooks, Murphy, Cleveland, Wilmot and Stock well each hit for two bases and Sowilefs for a .-ingle, ami six men trotted over the plate. Two other runs were made by St. Paul during the game. In the fourth inning Wilmot was pre sented with a base, stole second and third, and scored on Roche's hit to left field. In the fifth Crooks made his sec ond bid for the ("lobe home run medal by landing the ball squarely outside the right field feme. La Crosse scored two in the third inning on three hits and enors by Murphy and Pickett. Four were added in the seventh on doubles by Jevne and Pyle. a base on balls to Miller ami a triple by Books. In the eighth the last two were made on singles by Nagle and Jevne and a double by Scott. Pickett made most of the errors for the home team. but only one of them had any effect on the score, The visitors' errors were numerous, but they would not have won against such terrific batting had their error column been entirely clear of evi dences of blunders. The features of the field play were line catches by Burch and Scott and a pretty double play by Crooks and Roche. There was not a member of the St. Paul team who did not get a genuine hit. Cleveland really led with the willow, all his hits being the real article, while two of those by Wilmot were phantoms. '"inch's stick work was again much admired. lie hit safe twice, got a base on balls and drove three Ion:. Hies to the outfield. He al ways hits the ball a quick, clean, sharp whack which sends it through the air at a dangerously, rapid pace. Nagle made his first appearance with La Crosse, and. besides catching a fine game, did good execution with the willow.

The Match Makers Given a Bad Drubbing. Minneapolis ended the week by win ning the second game from Oshkosh yesterday, pounding Burdick for fif teen singles, a triple and two home runs. The game was really won in the first inning, when four singles and Pat ton's home run, with a wild'pitch. 'gave five runs. If this were not enough, four hits and two errors gave three more runs in the second. With this lead Minneapolis played lazily and added five more during the game, while , Oshkosh made a total of six altogether. It was rather a listless game, though re lieved by several brilliant plays. The best of these was in the sixth, when Meister, with one hand.caught a red-hot liner from McCarthy's bat and made an unassisted double play. Burns made a •. fine catch of Kloprs fly against the left- I ' field fence and covered his field in tine style. Foster caught seven Hies in his garden, two id' them being exceedingly difficult running catches. Oshkosh oil Klopf about as hard as he has been hit this season, but Minneapolis hammered I the game out of Burdick. Murphy, _ ! snbst tute umpire, went in to umpire and was badly off on balls and strikes. The score is as follows: "MINNKAI'oi Is. AII B B Si;!

Eau CLAIBE, Wis.," Aug. The game to-day was an absurd affair in the main. Most of Eau Claire's infield and outfield fell down badly and the Mil wankees received most ample assist ance from the unaccountable bewilder ment which seemed to possess most of the home nine. Crothers and "Morrison, Eau Claire's new battery, performed no wonderful feats, but could hardly be fairly judged in this game. The grand stand kickers roasted Umpire Forrest continuously.

The Duluth Men Go Down Before the Hawkey es. Special to the Globe. Di i.t in. Minn., Aug. C— The visitors won from Duluth to-day with ease, partly by superior batting and fielding and partly by gross errors of the home team. Kennedy proved a great puzzler. The features of the game were home runs by Larqocue and Whitely and gen eral good fielding on both sides.- Pre vious to the game Schelbcck asked to be excused from playing on account of sickness, which the management refused to allow. He was scarcely able to stand, which accounts for his poor record of play. Umpire Sullivan was generally fair, but his judgment regarding balls and strikes was bad. The game was very dull with the exception of two in nings. A very large crowd was present.

During the past week in the North western league Milwaukee has been in creasing its lead, and St. Paul, though retaining third place, is not so far ahead of Oshkosh as a week ago. This week St. Paul plays with the "strong Milwau kee and Dcs Moines teams, while Osh kosh meets Duluth ami Eau Claire. St. Paul will, therefore, have to give its strict attention to bail playing or be further humiliated by being forced down i to fourth place. Minneapolis is playing | a strong game of late, and now has a firm hold on fifth place. La Crosse and Duluth are neck and neck again for sixth place, and the Wisconsin club seems likely to get it. The clubs end the first week in August in the following order: Per- Played. Won.

Chicago, Aug. G. — New York took aj good game from Chicago very handily ■ this afternoon, beating the champions \ after every one of the 7,000 spectators j supposed the contest was decided their | way. The score was tied in the fifth, ! when New York made six runs, three i of which were earned by two doubles and one single, but Van Haltren con tributed materially to the result by giv ing two men bases on balls, and errors by Sunday and Pfeffer did the rest. After that it was easy sailing for the j visitors. The feature of the game was Sunday's remarkable catch of Tiernah's long fly. capturing the ball as he jumped a low bench for spectators placed so far out that it was supposed no ball would ever reach it. Had it not been caught it would have been a home run.

But two good hits were made off him. Fields' two-baser was a scratch in Daly's terri tory, and as the latter is crippled, he could not get under it. Of the rest two were scratches and one a wind hit.

Abominable um piring made an extra inning necessary to-day, and a wild throw by Brbuthers gave Boston the winning ran in the tenth inning. In the ninth after fairly striking out Nash made a home run, Heine the score. A triple by Getzein and Brouthers' single in the tenth gave Detroit a lead. A base on balls and singles and an out placed the Bostonians on second and third. Then Daly knocked a grounder towards first, which Brou thers threw wild to the plate, letting in two runs. In this Inning Johnston pre vented Richardson making a double play, but the umpire saw it not. In the seventh Nash knocked Ganzel down when the latter tried to put him out at the plate, but Mr. Sullivan said "safe.'

Daring the fortnight just ended no club in the organization has won more than eight games nor lost less than four. Detroit retains the lead, but is unable to materi ally increase its advantage. Philadelphia is still in the race, too, the Quakers be ing but nine games behind the Wolver ines. It would be a great surprise, how ever, if the Philadelphia aggregation should go to the front. The general im pression is that the team will hold its present position. It is said President Spalding, of the Chicago team, believes the tight will be between New York and Chicago. Detroit and Boston dropping to third and fourth place, respectively. The clubs end the week in the following order: Per- Played.

St. Louis Captures a Pretty Game From Cincinnati. St. Louis, Aug. 6.— The Cincinnatis were defeated by St. Louis to-day in one of the prettiest games of the year. Cincinnati led until the eighth inning, then Send lost his temper and hit Welsh and Gleason with the ball. A two-bagger by Comiskey did the rest, Comiskey scoring the winning run by a daring steal home. The Cincinnatis tried hard to score in the pinth. Cork hill led off with a clean hit. Carpenter, however fouled out. Baldwin and Mullane popped up high ones, which the fielders easily cared for. Curry umpired and the Browns complained bitterly of his way of calling balls and strikes". Boyle caught his thirty-second game and did splendidly. Serad pitched a grand game for Cincinnati, as did King for St. Louis. Score: ....

Louisville, Ky., Aug. o.— For six innings Hugh Daley, the one armed pitcher of the Clevelands, kept the Louisville sluggers from scoring, but iii the seventh they knocked out no fewer than seven runs. Hecker pitched In good form and was well supported, ex cept by White and Cook. The game abounded in good plays, the work Of Wolf and Browning in their respective fielding positions being superb. Strieker played brilliantly for Clevelend. Six double plays, three by each club, were notable features of the game. Brown ing and Toy led in the batting for their respective sides. By the defeat of the Baltimores by Brooklyn, Louisville steps into second place in the pennant race.

The Brooklyns got onto Knouff in the opening inning to-day and batted him for four earned runs. The Baltimores made five errors in that inning. Burns and Davis equally divided four between them, but they did not affect the final result of the game and to the slippery condition of the grounds they were largely due. The home team did not hit far, but they did in good season. Knouff struck out only one man, and he never reached first base, In the fifth inning Baltimore bad two men on bases and none out. Dan iels attempted a sacrifice hit into Toole's hands, and the latter touched first base before Purcell could return. Then Tucker popped up a flytoPinckney.and a goose egg resulted. * Clark's work*be hind the bat was the best of the day, and he batted well too. Griffin led the batting for his side.

An lowa Minister Who is Also a Crack Twirler. Special to the Globe. Dcs Moines, 10., Aug. 6. — A gentle man who came up from Albion this morning tells of a great game of ball in that town yesterday. Albion, a town north of Marshalltown. has a good amateur club, and their crack pitcher is the minister of the Little Country church. He is a great pitcher, anil plays at home with the boys for exer cise. Grinnell also lias a good club, and was recently challenged by Albion to play a match game. They accepted, provided they would be allowed to bring their own umpire. This was agreed to, and the game occurred yes terday. The pitcher, who, it appears, is the captain of the team, would not allow any kicking or loud coaching. The reverend pitcher took Irs position in the box after a short prayer, and the game was called. The umpire was very rank, but the good man would allow no kicking. Finally the umpire called a man safe and the decision was too much for the preacher. He stopped a minute and studied; then with a steady step and a solemn look in his face he advanced toward the umpire and in a very polite manner remarked: '•Mr. Umpire, 1 see it is necessary for Albion to beat the Grinnell Ball club and the umpire, and we will do it. Now you just watch us. dear sir. Then there will be no kicking; all good playing.'" After this little speech he retired to his position, and for five innings the op posing team got but one hit off him and* his team won the game by a score of 9 to G. He is an expert pitcher and the pride of the base ball people of the city. Gloriously Full. 1H Duluth News. ,', Yesterday morning at 2:25 two re porters of the News stepped into tiie Ideal coffee house to get a lunch before going home. As they entered, Ingraham, Duluth's first baseman, at tracted their attention by his load and' boisterous talk. His friends calmed him, however, before he had said very much and he settled down to eating. Reddy McMillan was at the left of them all and as usual, was gathering in every thing that came within his reach, lie was eating as he never ate before. Mor kin, the, pitcher to whom Duluth's citi zens have often pointed with pride as being the coolest man in club, was seated nearest the door and had a very composed position. He leaned despair ingly on his left hand, whilejjwith a fork in his right lie alternately ate beans and brushed flies from his face. The look on his countenance was one of woe, although he was nearly asleep, and he undoubtedly felt rather uncertain. In a word the gentlemen were gloriously full of that which inebriates and were in need of the hospitalities offered by a feather bed. THE TURF. Results of the Events at Mon mouth Park. , New.

The meeting between Killen and Car diff at the Washington, rink, Minne apolis, was the chief topic of conversa tion yesterday morning among the sporting men, and the rival establish ments of the two sluggers were thronged all day. Cardiff and his friends seemed to think they were entitled to what little glory there was and were in high spirits. Killen is evidently disappointed anil surprised at the outcome of the fight. He expected that he could "do" Cardiff, despite his rushing. ,., and ducking tactics. He now " says lie wants; to have it out to a '". finish for 'any amount, and Hank Seeley agrees to back him. Cardiff, as usual, says he is not anxious to fight, and wants to be let alone. He came out of the battle without a scratch, and the statement in yesterday's Globe that he got a black eye was erroneous. Killen's hand did not seem to have been much injured, although his left bothers him somewhat. The receipts are much smaller than anticipated. Messrs. Bresslaner and Wallace, who had the management of the affair, say there were considerably less than 5,000 peo ple present. The receipts were about 80,000. and the management took 223. pet cent., leaving about .4.500 to be divided evenly between Killen and Cardiff. The opinion of the public is still divided as to the merits of the men, although Cardiff stock has risen somewhat because of his good staying qualities. An incident in connection with the affair was an encounter yesterday after noon between John Donaldson, Cardiff's backer, and Sparrow Golden, the Phila delphia boxer. Golden says Donaldson insulted him, and it looked as though the two were going to have it out on the spot. Golden says he means to challenge Donaldson as a result of the unpleasant ness. Sullivan's Golden Belt. Boston, Aug. 6.— The gold, diamond studded belt that is to be presented to John L. Sullivan next Monday evening, on the occasion of the testimonial to be given him at the Boston theater, has reached this city, and has been placed on exhibition. It is beyond doubt the richest and most elegant prize ring sym bol ever designed in this or any other country, and is almost bewildering in its elaborate detail and princely rich ness. The brilliant eomiscation of its diamond-studded surface, the delicate tracery of its golden links, the soft tints of its heavy enamels, excite the liveliest admiration of the beholder, and, aside from its intrinsic worth, it is valuable as a work of art. Two big policemen .stand guard over the shining bauble. It lies upon a bed of purple plush, which offers a pleasing contrast to its golden luster, and will remain in its present lo cation until the night of its presenta tion to Champion Sullivan.- Knocked Out. New York, Aug. 6. Henry McCoy, of this city, and .Jack McCormack, of Jersey City, light weights, fought last night in Jersey City for a purse of $200. McCormack was knocked out in the sev enth round. Lew-is Won With Ease. Special to the Globe. Eau Claire, Wis., Aug. 6.— A big crowd gathered at the opera bouse to night to see the match between Charles Moth and Evan Lewis, the strangler. At 9 o'clock Parson Davis, of Chicago, announced the affair as a catch-as-catch can, three falls, with ten minutes' rest between falls. Alexander Montgomery, Of Eau Claire, was referee. The first fall Lewis won in two minutes. The second fall Moth won in ten minutes. The third fall Lewis won in two min utes and was given the match. In the first fall Lewis remained apparently passive from the start, allow ing Moth to take any hold he chose. The second fall was preceded by a long struggle, but no strikingly scientific features. Lewis rolled around on the floor with Moth for several minutes and finally went over on his back and the fall was given to Moth. The third fall was ac complished by Lewis with the same ease and rapidity with which he had won the first. It looked as though Moth bad gained the second fall by what might be called courtesy, and it seemed apparent that Lewis might easily have won the second as well as the other two. For the Herald Cup. Special to the Globe. Boston', Aug. 6.— a meeting of the regatta commute of the Eastern yacht club this morning. Thursday, Aug. 11, was definitely decided upon as the date j for the Herald cup race off Marblehead. This date was agreed upon in conse- i quence of the Goelet cup race ueing ! sailed yesterday. Ample time is thus given the yachts to get to Marblehead and be in condition. A Go-as- You-Please Race.

How the Natives of San Salvador Are Swindled Onto! Their Hard- Earned Money, By the Purchase of Articles Made in Germany and Stamped With Amer ican Trademarks. Secretary Whitney Gives Out Some Plain Talk Abont the Old Naval Hulks. Washington, Aug. 6.— Consul Dee pre at San Salvador reports to the de partment of state that "products of American toil, skill and industry are supplanted in San Salvador, and I sup pose everywhere in Central America, by base imitations. Iron machetes are substituted for those of steel as manu factured in Connecticut and New- York. The trade marks of American artisans are stamped or imprinted on the worthless German implements. I am told that 50,000 machetes are sold annually in San Salvador at an average price of $3.50 each. Amer ican osnobergs,. sheetings, muslins and calicos are driven out of Central Ameri can markets by goods bearing the brands and trade marks of the best American mills. These worthless German goods are made of East India and Egyptian cheap short staple cotton, and are utterly valueless. Perhaps the poorest beverage I ever imbibed was German claret, sold here and bearing the trademark of the best wine grower of California. Beautiful bottles, bear ing on their exterior, pretty labels of the great beer distilleries of St. Louis, Philadelphia and Milwaukee, are full of the foul decoction brewed in Germany. Perhaps the vilest of all these beverages is the Kentucky whisky, so labelled, but distilled in Germany. 1 have seen Colt's and Rem ington's repeaters sold here that were never in the United States. 1 was told that these were the products of that for gotten 'Birmingham' of England, but these illiterate, untroubled natives de mand the cheapest goods. Cast-iron sewing machines (German), wares, axes and beverages are supplied them by Germany." HE MEANS BUSINESS. Secretary "Whitney Will Not In dorse the Repair of Old Hulks. Washington, Aug. O.— A board of repairs recommended that the iron hulled steamer Palos, now on the Asi atic station, be repaired, and estimated the cost at $5,000 on the hull and .4,000 for new boilers and machinery. One of the arguments in favor of the recom mendation was that no other vessel now in the navy would serve the same pur pose, she being able, on account of light draft, to enter all the ports on the sta tion. The secretary, indorsed the recom mendation as follows: Aug. I, lßß7.— This indorsement suggests the expenditure of the sum of about $5,000 upon the Palos. The Palos is a lug of 230 tons, twenty-two years old and in uo respect a war vessel as how understood. She cost originally, in 1805. 875,000, when iron was twice its "present price,and could probably in? built now for 850,000. she has cost in re pairs since she was originally built $183,248. She is kept on the China station as a substi tute for a vessel of war on account of her 1 i_i 1 1 1 draft, which enables her to visit the rivers and shallow bays. I do not approve of the proposed repairs. We are not re sponsible for the maintenance or non-main tenance of '. a navy, but we are for the proper expenditure of our appropriation. The ex cuse that we must keep her afloat, or other wise we shall have no vessel to take her place, is a matter for congress. We cannot justify spending 85,000 upon the old iron tug as a vessel of war except upon the ground that congress has not made other provision for this service, which is a matter for congress and not for us to consider. Nothing has done so much to defeat the appropriation as the willingness of the department to spend money upon worthless things. These reports show that an expenditure of about $4,000 will put the Palos in shape for another year and a half, within which time something" could be built fitted for the service, and which would not disgrace the country in case of war. One good shot from even a modern machine gun would destroy the machinery of the Palos and end her career. I do not believe in spending money on this kind. Ido not fail to appreciate and credit the responsibility the bureaus feel, but I think by this time, after I have antagonized so often this kind of reasoning, 1 ought to be relieved from this sort of recommendation. A TREASUKYSCAXDAL. Involving the Payment of Money to Swindlers. Washington, Aug. Information from a source which appears to be trustworthy indicates that a serious scandal is impending in the treasury department. Several months ago a letter from one of its oflicers, the sur veyor general of California, fell like a thunderbolt within the walls of the gen errl land office. It is asserted that the letter in question contained certain United States treasury drafts which the surveyor general had received direct from the treasury department with a number of others to deliver to certain persons, whose addresses he was to ascertain. These drafts were, in fact, tor payment or satisfaction of claims which the persons in whose names they were drawn had against the government .for services rendered as deputy survey ors for the surveys of the public lands, under a general appropriation for that purpose, and also under what is known as the special deposit system. The offi cial, in returning these treasury drafts. stated that, when he had delivered all the others or caused them to be deliv ered to the pc rsons for whose benefit they were issued, he had " FAILED TO KIND TIIE PAYEES of the drafts inclosed in his letter, as some were dead and others had moved to parts unknown. The irregularity of the proceedings was apparent to Sparks, and it is ascertained that lie was then and has been ever since the most indignant man in Washing ton, for upon a* careful com parison of the plates and ac counts, in satisfaction of which these treasury drafts had been issued, it was found that in many cases they had been so paid long years before, some of them as long ago as is. - ' or 1573. It is asserted that Commissioner Sparks addressed a most energetic remon strance to the treasury department in regard to these payments, and that the whole matter has been thoroughly in vestigated by special agents. It is said that a good many persons are interested in these irregular and fraudulent cases, and that among them are several ex members of congress, who were told by one of the special agents that they were j running a terrible risk. They explained, ; as might well be, that they were merely • acting as attorneys for others, and had believed the claims were all -"straight.'! "Well," requested the agent, "all 1 can say is, that you have drifted aecideiitly into very strange company— the com pany of thieves and scoundrels.'' The Law is in Force. Washington, Aug. Judge Har per, of the police court, in the trial to day of Surgeon Crawford, charged with fornication with a white girl under fourteen years old, held that the Ed munds law, which was enacted for Utah, is also applicable in the District of Columbia. For Mutual Benefit. Philadelphia, Aug. (>.— A secret circular has been issued from the head quarters of the Knights of Labor to its members, proposing a plan of insurance to which all Knights who desire may be -long.regardlessof age, but membership is not to be. made compulsory. The initia- | tion fee is to be $2 and the annual dues j .1. The assessments for which a death i benefit of -.1.000 is to be paid range from ! 70 cents for persons eighteen years of age to .5.00 for those of seventy years of age, and assessments are only to be levied when the necessary sum of .1,000 ; is not in the treasury, and money re ceived from assessments is not to be used ; for any other purpose. j Myers & Carpenter, DIAMOND ERI11.! - - . ■ • " : i.-''3'--'~: ; V^s_»S9<S_!
