See SCORE NINE TO THREE. It Was a Good, Clever, Clean Game of Haseball. Desplto the , fact that yesterday's weather was better suited for a fdot ball contest,, yet a largo crowd went out to the park to see the ball game be? tween the above teams- It was tho Athletics first appearance In the cham? pionship series contest, and they played a nice, clean game. Shea pitched for tho Athletics, and while he pitched a clever gome, yet he was,unlucky, as the All Americas hit when hits counted as runs. On tho other hand, Persons was in his usual fine form, allowing only five scattering hits. Persons has pitched gilt-edge ball ever since his first ap? pearance In Portsmouth, and he Is well fitted for faster company should he de? sire to enter a league.. "Billy" Hargrove, Portsmouth's old reliable centreflelder, was tho umpire at yesterday's game. He was kept busy shaking hands with old frlend3 and acquaintances. Should Portsmouth be In the Virginia League next year It I is highly probable that Hargrove will be seen in a Portsmouth .uniform. Yesterday's game was as genteel as Is nosslble to have. There was no wrangling or disorder, and this fact was commented on to the credit of the players of the opposing teams. It is \ hoped-that such good conduct will con? tinue, nnd It is believed that It will. Score by innings: R.H.E..

(Special to Vlrglnlan-Pllot.) Richmond. Va., September 16.?Gov? ernor Tyler when asked to-day concern cernlng the refusal of the auditor to pay the claim of Grimes' Battcrv for patrol service during yellow fever scare, said: "The claim should be paid from mili? tary fund. I am confident the Legis? lature will nllow it. It Is a Hist claim created tinder emergency, when there was great danger to Norfolk, Ports? mouth and vicinity.

R, Wel ton Sc Co. :?? ????? '. ? ? GRIMES' BATTERY CLAIM. Auditor Morton Marye Refuses to Pay the Amount Jn Question. Yesterday's Richmond Dispatch is authority for the following statement: Colonel Morton Marye; auditor of public accounts, yesterday finally re? fused to pay the claim of the Grimes' Battery, of Portsmouth, for services rendered at Ocean View while Ports? mouth and Norfolk were maintaining a .quarantine against Hampton, Phoebus, Old Point and Newport News during the prevalence of yellow, fover at the National Soldiers' Home, at Hampton,' In August Colonel Marye stated yesterday that he declined to pay the bill because the Mayor of Portsmouth had no authority to call out the Battery and make it perform patrol duty at Ocean View, nine miles from the city of Portsmouth. The Auditor obtained the opinion of Attorney-General Montague. which sustained the view Colonel Marye had previously taken. The Buttery was In camp at Ocean View when- the yellow, fever appeared at the National Soldiers' Home. The Mayor of Portsmouth at once ordered the Battery on duty nt Ocean View to prevent persons landing there from the district infected. The Buttery is n Portsmouth organization. The men were on duty there several days. MnJ. William E. Simons, who commands the Virginia Artillery, was with them nearly the whole of the time. The claim for services amounted to $1,354.86. Governor Tyler wished the bill paid. While the Mayor may have exceeded the nuthoriity vested in him by law. It was regarded th'?it the pressing necessity- of the time was warrant for his action. The law gives to the Mayor of a town the authority to call out troops without the Governor's order, provided there be riot, or tumult, in progress .or so Imminent that there Is I not time to no!ify the Governor.
