The Indianapolii club got a bad start in the game with the Detroits yesterday, bat came near enough winning at the close to make the contest very exciting. Moffett, as usual, was rather wild in his pitching at the beginning of the game, but he improved as the playing eontinned, and after the fourth inning only one safe hit was made off of his delivery. Getzein's best work was done in the beginning, but In the eighth inning he weakened, and seren of the twelve hits by the Indianapolis players rre made then. Throughout the game there was a great deal of batting, however, and altogether seventeen of the put-outs were on flies that were caught by the fielders. Seery, Thompson and Brown distinguished themselves by maKing some very difficult catches. A featore of the game was the number of men that . Oetzein struck out. In the eighth inning, when seven hits were made off of him, he retired the side on strike-out. Hackett gave Moffett splendid support, and Denny carried off the batting honors. The first two men at bat for the Detroits were sent to first on called balls, and one of them, Richardson, scored on a hit by Thompson. In the next inning Hanlon scored on singles by himself and Getzein. In the. fourth inuing, singles by Dunlap, White and Getzein, and twobase hits by Richardson and Brouthers yielded four runs. In the seventh Brouthers scored on a two-base hit by himself and -a single by Thompson. The first run of the Indianapolis club was made in the fourth inning on hits by Shomberg end Denny and a passed balL No more runs were scored after that until the eighth inning. After Motfett had struck out, Seery and Glasscock made singles, and Sbomberg wa? sent to first on called balls. Singles were then made by Denny, Gardner and Brown, together with a two-base hit by McGeachy, and five runs were scored. With Gardner and Brown on the bases, and the crowd wildly howling for another hit to bring them in and win the game, both Hackett and Moffetf struck out, ending the run-getting.

It was a disastrous day for the White Stockings, for they were defeated in both contests. The local nine had considerable fun at Anson's expense. lie was desperate and kicked on the slightest provocation. Clarkson was bit at will by Pittsburg's men in the first, while Morris pitched an effective game, Anson caught two bard line drives. Score: PITTSBPRO. I CHICAGO.

There was scarcely an intermission of two minutes between the first and second games. Both nines were enxious to begin work. Baldwin and Daily, and Galvin and Miller were the batteries. Anson made himself obnoxious by kicking and queer antics at the outset, but soon subsided. The champions fielded wretchedly, and, although Baldwin was hit quite hard, but one earned run was scored off him. Pfeffer played badly, and Tebau's two wild throws were costly. Chirr g scored its only run on Kyan'a double and Sumvan's single. Score: PITTSBUBO. CHICAGO.

New York, Oct. 6. The Philadelphia again defeated the New Yorks on the Polo grounds today. Ferguson, the all-round player of the Philadelphia, was put in the pitcher's box and did famously. One error was charged to the visitors, that being a foul-fly muff by Ferguson. This makes fifteen games won in succession by Philadelphia, and if they had New York to play against all the while they might go on and win a hundred. For the home team,' Ward and Connor were about the only ones who played ball, aud the former played in good style. Murphy caneht well, and Welch, although he pitched well, was hit hard.

St. Louis, Oct 6. Knouff'a wild pitching lost the game to Louisville this morning, he giving no less than eight men bases on balls, and being ineffective at critical points. The game was slow and tedious, and there were no especially brilliant points. Ramsey was also hit hard, but he pitched in better form than' Knouff. Umpire Connelly fined Ramsey $50 for questioning a decision and telling him he was "rotten," making the intelligence rather costly.

The home team surprised the local public by presenting Hudson as their pitcher in the afternoon. He has been absent from the Browns for a long while on account of his mother's fatal illness, and returned only to help them out in their closing games. He pitched very well for a man who had been absent from his position for several weeks: but the best feature of the day's play was the fielding of Welch at center and the wonderful batting of O'Neill, who, in the afternoon game, got in two home runs, one of which was made in the ninth inning before the game was called back to the eighth on account of darkness.

The Metropolitan and Brooklyn clubs played again to-day at Washington Park, Brooklyn, the home team winning through their superior fielaing. They also out-batted the Metropolitans, getting eight clean ' hits. The Metropolitans played a loose game in the field, Weidrnan, Orr and Holbert trying to excel each other.

Time 1:25 UmpireFerguson. Glasscock Grumbles. John Glasscock has been experiencing some dissatisfaction with Indianapolis, and his treatment by the papers in crediting him with too many errors. Yesterday be said that he would not play in Indianapolis another season, and went so far as to threaten to buy him a new set of carpenters' tools the first of next week, go home and return to his trade, to never play ball again. It is known that GlasscocK asked not to be put on the reserve list, preferring to be traded to Chicago or Detroit, bur, notwithstanding his request he was put on the list He is credited with sayiner, yesterday, that he knew the club could get Pfeffer or Sam Thompson for him, and said he would insisj on being released. The managers of the club are not worrying over the talk, and will retain Glasscock for next year's service. It is doubtful if he could be traded for Pfeffer if it were desirable, and Manager Watkins says Thompson will not be traded or sold to anybody. In speaking of Glasscock's complaint, last night. Manager Watkins said the club should pay no attention to it "It i3 a common thing among players at the close of the season," 6aid he. "Every year some of my best men talk the same way, but we just let them talk. There is no danger of a player kicking out of the harness. Glasscock has to play in Indianapolis or no where, and you can he assured that he is not going to give up a $3,000 salarv to do carpenter work at $2 per day." One of the best friends of Glasscock in the club said of the kick last night: "Jack will be all right in a few days. He is too proud. It hurts him to make an error, and he is feeling a little badly just now." Kase-IIall Motes. Manager Watkins says that Thompson is not for trade, either for Glasscock or anybody else. It is reported that Harry Spence, of the Portland club) will be the manager of the Metropolitan club in 1833. Ten men were at bat for Indianapolis in the eighth inning yesterday, commencing with Moffett and ending with Moffett In the eighth inning yesterday Getzein retired the side -bv striking out Hackett, and Moffett twice, but in the meantime allowed the Hoosiers to knock out seven hits one a double. The reserved lists of all the League clubs for 1888 bave been sent In to President Young. The Detroit list includes all the men now under contract with the exception of Beattin and Shindle. Moffett took an awful hot ball from Rowe's bat in the third inning yesterday. It turned him completely around, and he seemed about as surprised himself to find that he had the ball as were the spectators. Getzein was badly rattled in the eighth inning yesterday, when every man who came to the bat lined out a safe hit Ganzel saw his condition and gave him time to'settle down to his normal condition by taking two or three minutes to tie his shoe string.. 12 Boston Herald: By having a "falling out" with Al Spalding, President Stearns, of the Detroits, has offended the best friend he had in the League. When the matter of percentage comes up in the League meeting Spalding may have something to say that will not be pleasant for Detroit's ear. An Eastern paper says that the Detroit club, with its expensive salary list, could not have been kept alive this year but for the special concessions made by Chicago and New York of a percentage of the gate receipts, and for Detroit to refuse the request of the Chicago and Boston clubs to piav the three postponed Boston, games in Chicago was base ingratitude. ' It is understood that at the close of this season, after declaring a dividend of 20 per cent, on the stock, the Chicago club will have a surplus fund of more than $100,000, the result of three years' accumulation, which is to be used toward the purchase of the present grounds.. The property is valued at fully $500,000, but the club has an option at a lower figure which it took in 1835, and could now sell its option at a handsome advance. Several of the minor leagues have already ended their championship season, and the clubs have come out in the following order: International Toronto, Buffalo. Newark, Syracuse, Hamilton, Jersey City, Rochester. Scranton, Wilkesbarre. Ohio State League Kalamazoo, Zanesville, Sandusky, Wheeliog, Columbus, Mansfield, Akron. Western League Topeka,

Lincoln, Denver, Ksnsas City, Omaha, Hastings. Oshkosh leads in the Northwestern League, and New Orleans in the Southern League. Manager Watkins says President Nimick's action on going back on his declaration for percentage does not amount to much. He says: "He will give ns percentage; mind it This is only preliminary talk. They will all give us percentage when the time comes." Racine avt St L.oni.. St. Louis, Oct 6. The races at the fair grounds, this afternoon, were probably seen by mere people than ever witnessed any race in America before. As usual, the day was fair holiday, and the crowds that flocked to the fair largely exceeded those on any former occasion. Nearly two hundred thousand people were on the grounds, almost every one of whom attempted to see at least one of the races. Both stories of the grand stand were jammed to the utmost, the quarter stretch and club-house lawn were crowded to excess, and the outer line of the track to the half-mine pole wg packed solidly with neopie standing ten to fifteen deep. The unfinished pacing race of yesterday was won by Ed Annan taking the sixth h-sat in 2:18i- Mike Wilkes got second money. The first race of to-day was a free-for-all trot, for $2,500, divided. Harry Wilkes was a hot favorite, but he was beaten. Summary: Prince Wilkes Ill Harry Wilkes 2 2 3 J.

Sullivan Wants Money, Not Honor. Boston, Oct 6. J. L. Sullivan will sail for Europe on Oct 29. Harry Phillips, a wellknown sporting man from Montreal, has been in town for three days, making arrangements with the champion to become his manager. The business was settled yesterday afternoon, the date for starting decided upon, and a plan of action mapped out Phillips and Sullivan are reticent regarding the terms, but it is said that they will share equally in the profits of the trip. Sullivan said to a reporter last evening: "Yes, I am going to Europe with my friend, Harry Phillips. We shall start the latter part of this month, and go to Liverpool first. We will make a tour of England, Ireland and Scotland during the fall and winter, and in the spring go to the continent" "Will any other pugilist go abroad with you?" "No, I shall go alone: that is, I shall not travel with a combination. When I get to En eland I shall make arrangements to snar with the best men they have got over there." " How long do you intend to remain?" "Well, I shall be away at least a year, and yerbaps more. It all depends upon circumstances. I am going over there after' money, and not for further honors. I want that distinctly understood." "What about Kilrain and Smith?" "I have already expressed a willingness to meet the winner, and I shall not take backwater. After they have settled their little dispute I will be ready to talk business." "Do you think Kilrain . will whip the Englishman?" "To be candid with you. I do not Kilrain is a good fighter, but he will be greatly handicapped in his coming battle. In the first place, the chances are that he will not be given a fair show. He is going over there in the hands of an Englishman, will be trained by an Englishman, and will fight in the presence of Englishmen. This, of course, will have a great deal to do with the result The sympathies of the spectators will be with Smith, and if Kilrain does get the best of it, the chances are that the fight will be called a draw." Reception of Pugilist Kilrain. London. Oct. 6. Kilrain, the pugilist, was given an enthusiastic reception at St James Hall this evening. There was an intense desire shown to see the American, 3,000 persons being present, among them Smith, with whom Kilrain is to fight in January. Kilrain was introduced by Pony Moore, who exhibited the belt and asked fair play on the part of the spectators. The set-to between Mitchell and Kilrain pleased the crowd. Kilrain foreed Mitchell to his knees in the wind-up. Four rounds were foueht The exhibition is conceded to have been better than that which Smith gives nightly at the Aquarium. The betting, nevertheless, is two to one on Smith, owing to his encrmous muscles. After the exhibition the dressing-room was crowded with American and English reporters. Kilrain's gentlemanly manner surprises the Englishmen. Prlze-Fighters Arrested. Cincinnati, Oct C Sheriff Shock, of Ham ilton county, repaired to Chester Park with thirty deputies, all armed, this afternoon, and when Peter J. Nolan and John P. Clow had got fairly under way in the first round of their prize fight, he stepped in, arrested them both, aud stopped the business. About 1,800 people had gained admission. The prisoners were tascen before a country magistrate, where they gave bond to appear for trial to morrow.

DOXEY HAS A BUSY DAY

lie Feels Encouraged and Thinks Ho Will Begin Active Work Sext Week. The Standard Oil Company Proposes to Fnrnish Indianapolis People with a New Kind of Cheap Fnel Talk Abont Gas. The way contracts have been coming in this week has greatly encouraged Major Doxey, of the Anderson Natural-gas Company, and he is beginning to feel very confident that the end of the week will show sufficient patronage to warrant his company in beginning work. 'To-day has been been the busiest day we have bad since we opened our office," said he last night "Our room has been crowded all day with people who wanted to contract, and it was hardly possible to wait on all of them." While the various committees at work in several sections of the city have not reported yet this week I have inf ormation that they are meeting with great success. I now feel very much encouraged, and do not think there is much doubt about our beginning active work next week." "Have you contracted for piping yet," was asked. "The contracts are drawn, and will be signed just as soon as we get the desired number of consumers. The pipes will be purchased in Pittsbure. The quality has been agreed upon, and nothing remains to be done but sign the contracts." "There is one thing very certain," continued Mr. Doxey. "If our company does not get sufficient support to warrant ns in going ahead, Indianapolis will not have gas for some time to come, and never under the ordinance prices. I do not believe any of the other companies in the field ever intended to come in under the present ordinance. If we are not successful they will hold off until they get a better supply of gas, and then demand the schedule raised, or never come in." "Are you neeotiating for th purchase of the San-lard's wells at Noblesville?" , "We shall buy them if the Standard company will sell. I had a talk with Mansfield while he was here this week. He said his company would not come in under the present ordinance, and I asked him then if their wells would not be 6old. He said they probably would, and I told him I was ready to purchase them. He promised that our company should bave them in case they were sold, and I have no doubt about our getting them." If the Anderson company does eret possession of the wells they will probably pipe from Anderson to Noblesville, and thence to this city. The visit of Mr. Mansfield to the city this week has revived considerable talk about the Standard Oil Company, but Mr. Mansfield denies that bis visit was in any way connected with the eas question. He has an entirely new scheme which he hopes to put into operation here. It is to furnish the manufactories of the city with oil as a fuel. The company has an enormous supply of oil in its Lima, O., district that does not refine well. A gentleman who was recently throneh the oil district says that not more than one barrel out of ten will refine, and yet it has proved very satisfactory for fuel use. The company is perfecting a process by which the petroleum may be used for general domestic purposes at a very low cost, but thus far it is used only in furnaces by throwing the spray into the furnace. While here Mr. Mansfield called on quite a number of manufacturers in reference to contracting for oil. He received some encouragement from . them, and was given to understand that he would probably be patronized in case natural gas was not forthcoming soon. The general impression among manufacturers seems to be, however, that while oil may be much cheaper than coal, it cannot come into competition with natural gas, and will, therefore, only go into use in cities remote from the eas districts. There is no doubt about the manufacturers becomine impatient at the slowness of gettine gas here, but they prefer waiting a reasonable time for it rather than contracting for oil. The Indianapolis Gas Company and the Capital City company bave nothing new to report with reference to their progress. The representatives of both give out the information that tbey will have gas here as soon as any other company, but as yet have done nothing toward piping. . NEGLECTED EI HIS ATTENDANT. The Coroner's Verdict Regarding the Cause of Albert 1). McConahy's Death. The coroner's investigation into the cause of the death of Albert D. McConahy, at the Insane Hospital, closed with the' testimony of undertaker Hedges, who shipped the body to Van Wert, O., the day after the death, on a permit made out by himself. Dr. Wagner spent yesterday in reviewing the evidence for the purpose of making up his verdict. AH the witnesses agreed that the man wa3 badly scalded while being given his bath. The only thing the coroner had to determine was how the scalding came about The attendant who was giving the patient the bath testified that he put McConahy into the tub and turned on the cold water. Having done that, he turned to eet a towel, and when he reached the bath tub again the man bad turned on the ho t water and was being scalded. The evidence of Dr. Reyer, and also of Dr. Thomas, before it was revised, was to the effect that the man was suffering from progressive paralysis, and unable to turn on the water himself. This agreed with the information the relatives of McConahy had received direct from the hospital authorities, both before and after the death. This testimony tended to weaken that given by the attendant in the mind of the coroner. There wera also other facts that led the coroner to discredit all the testimony of the attendant. It was unreasonable that he should have turned the cold water on the man and then have left him to get a towel. If he did that he showed his unfitness for the position, and could have been held responsible for the man's death. The attendants are required to temper the water before the patients are put in, and if the attendant did not do that and '. says he did not the coroner felt that he should be censured. After going carefully over the evidence Dr. Waener returned the following verdict: "I find that Albert I.fcConaby, who died at the Indiana Hosnital for the Insane on Sept. 22, 1887, came to bis death from tho effects ? . a scald received in a bath-tub on Sept. 14, which, was allowed to occur through a lack of vigilance on the part of the attendant who had charge of the bath." A copy of the verdict will be sent to the superintendent of the hospital this morning, and the brother of the deceased, at Valparaiso, will also be sent a copy. Those who were informed of the verdict last eve nine regarded it as very mild. EEUXI0N OF VETERANS. Arrangements for ths Gathering of the Seventieth and Eleventh Regiment Survivors. The annual reunion of the Seventieth Indiana Regiment at Irvington next Thursday promises to be the best attended and most interesting the veterans have held since the organization of their association. The committee on arrangements met Wednesday night and completed its work. A special train will leave the Union Depot at 9:30 oclock a. m., and returning will leave Irvington at 5 p. M. Besides this arrangement for transportation, there will be several regular trains each way during the day and a street-car every half hour. It is the expectation to hold the reunion on the college campus, but if the weather should be unfavorable it will be held in the college chapel. The forenoon will be devoted to renewing acquaintances, and at 12 o'clock a magnificent dinner will be spread by the wives of the survivors. The address of welcome in behalf of the citizens of Irvington will be delivered by Prof. Butler, and the response will be by Senator Ben Harrison. The annual address will be by Rev. John O. Ward, of Princeton, Ind. Following that there will be short addresses by Maj. George W. Grubbs, of Martinsville; Rev. Meteer, of Sullivan, Iud., and CoL Samuel Merrill, Maj. James L. Mitchell, John S. Clelland and Dan Ransdell, of this city. From the letters received from the officers of the regimental association, the indications are that nearly all the survivors will be present The meetins of the resident wives of the survivors of the Eleventh Indiana Refriment yesterday afternoon at the residence of William J. Kereheval, on College avenue, was largely attended. Mrs. J. K. Ross presided. A large amount of

routine business was transacted. Mrs. Ross was elected president in charge ot the arrangements for .the reunion on the 19th, when tLe ladies will give the boys a handsome reception. The proposition to form a permanent organization of the resident wives of the survivors of the regiment was received with great favor, and the arrangements will-probably be consummated at the next meeting, which will be held at the residence bf Mrs. Kercheval, No. 233 College avsnue, on Wednesday, Oct 12, at 2 p. M.. when all the committees will be appointed and final arrangements will be made for the dinner on the 19th. . ' ' " -' " ' THE COURT RECORD.
