THEY DIVIDED THE SERIES

A Game in Which the Work of ntchcrs Was of Little Account to Hard Hitters. fhfj Home Players' Lous Lead Made Victory Certain Until Anson'? Luck Threatened to Turn the Score Games in Other Cities. The final game of tho first series between the Indianapolis arid Chicago teams was played at tho League Fark yesterday afternoon. The weather was cold and raw, and It wan a very disagreeable day for out-door port. A drizzling rain fell during the first ix innings, but did not materially interfere with tho contest. Tho only bad effect it had was to prevent many persons attending the game, and as a consequenco the crowd numbered less than three hundred. Those who were present, however, "Were treated to a regular old-fashioned plugging match, and though the visitors outbatted the home team, tho latter won tv virtue of superior work in tho field, at "the same time using the stick vigorously and at the right time. Tho fieluing t)f the Chicago club was very ragged, and both Teuer and Gumbert wero inject ive. The latter was in the box in tho lirst two innings, but was hit so hard that Anson Kent him to right field and put Tener in t ritch. The change did not work very well, however, as tho local ciub continued its streak of batting, and in the seventh Ciumbert was called in again. In tho meantime the Iloosiers had added nine runs to their score. Seery made his reappearance in left, and signalized his return by playing a aplendid game in the Held and batting in line style. He picked out tho first ball pitched, and was on third base when Ryan ot tho ball back into the diamond. Glassxock's fly was mulled by Van Haltren, and Setry Rcored tho first run. DeuTiy's sacrifice sent the captain to third, and McGeachy's single enabled him to cross the plate. In the next, Daily reached first on balls and immediately stole second in good style. Duffy fumbled Basftett's hot grounder, and a wild throw by the pitcher let him to second. Daily taking third at tho same time. Sclurneck flew out to Burns, but Burdick was given his base. After beery hud been retired bv Ryan. ilasscock was hit by a pitched ball a! Denny's single sent Bassett and Burdick home. Daily having previously scored on Scery'sout. At this point Tener replaced Gumbert. In the third, Daily made a twodagger, stole tho next base and crossed tho plate on a wild pitch, la the fourth tho visitors went all t pieces, and before tho aide was retired the Iloosiers had mado suven unearned runs and secured a lead that could not bo overcome. Seery led oft with a hit and Glaascoek followed with another. Denny's high fly was unified by Van Haltren, and the bases wero full. McGeachy found no difficultv in keenine no the cood work. and two men cam home. I lines was given 'his base on balls, and the bases were again nil occupied; Duffy's fumble of Dailey's gTounder allowed another man to score, and ft base on balls to Basstt forced still another across the jp late. Sehceneck made a single and Burdick got first once more. This brought Seery to tho bat again, and he secured his second hit in tho same inning. Glasscock sent a slow one to Tener, who returned it to the plate in time to cut off Schreueck, Glasscock also being put out at first. Denny was retired, and when tho emoke cleared away seven runs were posted up to the credit of tho Hodsiers. Tho next inning was a blank for the homo team, but 1 wo-bnggers by Denny and McGeachy scored the former in the seventh. Schteneck's three-base hit and a wild pitch gave another run in the eighth. The ninth was a blank. The visitors started out with a good lead, but failed to keep up the pace. Van Haltren's hit and steal, a missed third strike, a tingle by Pfeffer, a three-bagger by Farrell and a double by Burns gave them lour runs in the first inning. In the third Anson and l'feffer made homo runs. After that Chicago did nothing until the eighth, vlien they jumped on to Burdick in a manner that set tho crowd to thiuking. Pfefi'er started the trouble with a two-baso hit; a Tassed ball let him to third; Farrell and 'urns were retired, but Tener got his base on balls, and then Gumbert put tho ball over the fence. Ryan made a hit, but Van Haltren went out to McGeachy. Tho situation became decidedly interesting in tho ninth, when five singles and a base on balls sent four men across tho plate, one ofhem being forced, however. Bnrdick settled down, however, and, though tho Ansonians tried hard, they could not tie tho game. Tho score:

Secry did not bat much liko a sick man yesterday. Lynch will probably umpire the Pittsburg series. Indianapolis is tied with Boston for fourth place. Umpire Barnum had an off day yesterday and mado somo very bad decisions. Schfrneck's threo base hit was a neat ono and the big first baseman made good time around the diamond. The Pittsbnrgs will bo hero this afternoon, and play their first game with the Iloosiers. Getzein and Buckley will be tho loral battery. Tho Chicago tri-fd to delay the game in the fourth inning hoping that it would rain hard enough to save them from a defeat, but the trick did not work. Manager Bancroft says he. has no idea of releasing or selling eitner Seery or Schoeneck. He adds that, in his opinion, tho latter is the best first baseman in the country. Pfeffer's work in yesterday's game was remarkable. Four bits, including a twobagger and a homo run, five put outs; and live assists, and no errors form quite a record. Captain Anson said last night that the Iloosiers will make some of the big clubs rlay ball thi season. IIo regards tho team as a very superior organization, and says Indianapolis ought to beat Pittsburg out in the race. For nome unknown reason Sullivan has not yet reported, but he is expected every day. He telegraphed for advance money and Manager Bancroft answered that ho would send the required amount if ho would come at once, but Sullivan made no reply and thus the matter stands. Opening Day of the Nashville Races. Nashville, Tenu., May 2. The inaugural day of tho spring meeting at West-side Park, to-day, proved more than a realization of tho hopes of the management. The crowd waa variously estimated at from

8,000 to 10,000. The weather was glorious,

the track tone and the racing excellent. The event of the day was, of course, the 2,000 sweepstakes, and when the great son of Luke Blackburn came past tne grandstand a shout went up from the multitude which thoroughly tested his great popularity. The race was given to his compan ion. Come-to-law, to prevent rne iormer being penalized, but it is generally believed by horsemen that Knott could have made the distance in thes neighborhood of 2:06 had he been given his head. First Race For three-year-olds and upward; six furlongs. Strideway was the tip, but Cartoon proved the better, and won by a neck from Leo H. second, and Strideway third. Time 1:15 3-4. Second IZace Selling; three-year-olds and upwards; seven-eighths of a mile. Eva Wise led at the start, with Bravo second, and the others bunched. Turning into the stretch. Bravo was in front and Macauley second. Down tho stretch Macauley passed Bravo, and won after a close finish by a neck, from Eva Wise second, and McMurtry third. Time 1:S0 3-4. Third Kace Selling; three-year-olds and upward; live-eighths of a mile. Fred Wooley was first away, with Juanita second, and Kidnap third. Wooley led around into the stretch, but was nassed by Deer Lodge, who won by a neck, from Kedar Kahn second, and Meta third. Time 1:04 1-4. J. E. Gibbon's black horse Captain Lee, fell and was killed while going to tho post. Kilcy, his jockej', had his foot slightly sprained. Fourth Race The $2,000 sweepstakes; for three-year-olds; ono and one-fourth mile. This race, worth about $2,500 to the winner, was the attraction of the day, and thousands had gathered at the trac to see tho famous 6on of Luke Blackburn run. When thev were off Ke-Vee-Na was in front. Come-to-Taw second, Longtish third, Boodler fourth and Proctor Knott last. As they passed tho stand Troctor Knott was a length in front and running easy, Longtish second, Come-to-Taw third, Ke-Vee-Na fourth, and Boodler bringing up tho rear. At the half. Proctor was four lengths in front of the others, under a strong pull, with Longfish second and Come-to-Taw third. At the three-quarters, Knott still led by two lengths, and as they turned into tho stretch it waa the same. As they nearcd the wire Finnegan pulled Knott almost doublo in order to let Come-to-Taw win, which ho did in a drive, with Knott second, Lonefish third, Ke-Vee-Na fourth, and Boodler last. Turfmen who saw Knott's performance are convinced that he is a greater prize now than as a two-year-old, and there is no doubt he could nave won the race by ten lengths if Come-to-law had failed to respond at the finish. Time, 2:10 1-2. Fifth Race Four and a half furlongs; for two-year-olds. Miss Blondo was first when they started, with Peterborough second, and Amelia third. Prince Fonso led in the stretch, and .almost to the wire, but Amelia came with a Tush and beat him by a nose, with Maud L. third. Time, :57 1-2. Compelled to Refund the Money. Chicago, May 2. Tho board of review of tho National Trotting Association resumed its session to-day. The case of M. D. Downing, of Boston, owner of tho horse Champion John L., was decided adversely to Downing. Complaints had been made that Champion John L. was no other than the horse Prince, of 2:26 fame. A mass of proof substantiating this statement was presented, and the board adjudged Champion John L. guilty of trotting out of his registered class, and ordered his owner to pay baek all the money won on races where ho trotted in a class over 2:20. Tho case of Hambletonian Bashaw, owned by II. C. Cressler, of Tipton,' la., was also decided. It was claimed that his record was 2:37, and that he had trotted in 2:38 class. His owner claimed that his record was 2:871-2, which would entitle him to trot with 2:38 horses. The board found against him, and ordered him to refund the money won. One of the most importaut eases taken up was that of F. O. Baucock. of the Babcock stock farms, of Hornellsville, N. Y. vs. tho Niagara Falls Trotting Association. Complaint was made, and an application for an order filed as to the decisionot the association judges in the 2:35 race last Fourth of July. The association having been ordered to appear and 6how cause why they did not pay the money won by the contestants in tnat race, and having failed to do so, was suspended. In tho case of D. H. Johnston, of Jersey , City vs. Hugh Grove and T. W. Price, of Lima, ind., FTice was expelled for making a fraudulent entry. The evidence showed that his horse, Peter Lindlay, had trotted as Frank P., and that not only had he made false entry, but had created evidence to disprove it. There was a case against Frank B. Chapin, of East Saginaw, A. J. Libby, of Minneapolis, and the horse SoLong. The horse was falsely entered in the Massachusetts races last summer. The defense of the owner, Chapin, was that ho had left him with Libby, who, without his knowledge or consent, took tho horso East Both Chapin and Libby wero expelled. Tho horse remains suspended nntil all illegal winnings are refunded, and a recording fee of 50 is paid for tho change of name, together with 100 fine. THE OCEAN RACEKS.

New York, May 2. The formal opening of the new and 6umptuonsly-appointed home of the Southern Society in this city took place to-night. There was a grand banquet and reception. All the Southern people of prominence, called here by tho centennial celebration, were present, in addition to a long list of New York officials and prominent men. At the banquet, at which the president, John C. Calhoun, presided, the toast list was entirely informal. It was arranged to includo an address from tho Governor of each Sonthern State present, in the order in which the States were admitted into the Union. The order of speeches arranged was as follows: Vice-president Levi P. Morton, Chauuccy M. Depew, Henry W. Grady, Gov. Benjamin T. Briggs, of Delaware; Governor Jackson, of Maryland; Gov. John B. Gordon, of Georgia; Gov. John P. Richardson, of South Carolina; Gov. Fitzhugh Lee, of Virgiana; Governor Fowle, of North Carolina; Gov. Simon B. Buckner, of Kentucky, and Colonel Hancock, of Texas. The dining-rooms were tastefully decorated with bunting and choice exotics. The representative Southern people present, other than mentioned i n the list of speakers, included Senators John W. Danief, of Virginia; M.C.Butler.of South Carolina; theVirSiuia commissioners, Col. Walter H. Taylor, udge W. W. Camp. Judge Walter Staples, Major Holmes Conrad and ex-Congressman Randolph Tucker; Senator Wado Hampton, of South Carolina, and Colonels Markiey. Maxwell, Brown, Gleasonand McGowen, of the stall of Governor Richardson, of South Carolina. President Calhoun in his opening address said that ever since the effort was first made to establish in the great metropolis a 6ocietv of Southern men, residing here.they had all looked forward to the time when tho society would rejoice in a home of its own. At last that hope was realized. He knew that he expressed the sentiment of every member or tho society when no said tho one he would have been proud to welcome beyond all others at the house warming was tho honored President of the United States, who, however, was unable to be present in conse5uence of imperative official duties, 'he President desires me, Mr. Calhoun continned, to convey to you his regret, and with it his earnest and nest wishes for the society's welfare. Bnt I am glad to say, he continued, that among the many guests who have honored us with their presence is our distinguished Vice-president. With us, too, are the governors of nearly all tho Southern States. To all our guests wo extend a cordial Southern welcome to our home, which, while it is a home of Southern men, is a home of patriotism, of fealty to the government, of loyalty to the flag ana of devotion to tho Nation. Vice-president Morton was introduced as tho first speaker. He said that when the president of the society called upon him at Washington and extended him an invitation to be present on tho oocasion of tho opening of tho new club-house, he had said that he had a previous engagement, but that ho would come on condition that ho would not be called to make a speech. But I thank you, the Vice-president continued, for the invitation, and desire to congratulate the society in establishing a home in the city of New York. You have witnessed . tho cordiality extended by tho city of New York to visitors to the centennial, and I trust will, in this, your Sonthern home, extend to strangers a like welcome. I thank you for the warmth of your reception, and leave it to Mr. Depew to do the talking. Mr. Depew, being next introduced, was welcomed with a yell. He said ho had nevor been more impressed with the fact that the home and inspiration of oratory lay in the South, than oy tho speech that had Just been made by the Vice-presi-dentof thoUnitedStates. "We. herein New York," said he, 'as Republicans have been for twenty-five years trying to get a speech out of him, but in vain, and here, the very first time you get him before your society, out comes a burst of eloquence that shows the Vice-president to bo following in the footsteps of Clay, Calhoun and Webster. But the most eloquent speech Mr. Morton ever made was to me. Said ho: Depew, if I were you, I would not accept the nomination for the presidency.' I took his advice, and left New York open for the vice-presidential nomination. I am credited with being a quick-6ighted man, but I never saw into tli9 matter until after the election, ureal iaugnter.1 it a young man wants to get pn in this life he had bettej be a banker, not a lawyer." Mr. Depew said he had greatly enjoved the' centennial celebration, though he had not danced in the quadrille; but he re joiced most in the fact that rew York had. for a time, forgotten her commercial su premacy and her lovo for a stranger simply that sho might take him in laughter, aud had shown herself to be the metropolis of American hospitality as well. Judging the future by the record of the past century. Mr. Depew said he needed nothing but vermillion for the painting of the horizon. Ho referred feelingly to his experience as treasurer of the fund for the Confederate Soldiers' nome, and added that this, too, had its humorous side. Ono man had written to him as follows; "Comrade." Now, said Mr. Depew, I was down there a while, bnt I did not shoot any of you fellows, though that was not because 1 did not want to. and that you are here to-night Is by the blessing of uod. (daughter. "Comrade" said Mr. Depew's correspondent, T am glad you are doing something for the fellows who don't get no pension; but I wish you would do something for us. I am getting a pension of only $12 a month, because I am rated at the hospital with nothing but diabetes and aiarmxa. and l wisn you would uso your influence with Vice-presi dent Morton to get me rated lor something moresenou8." m recurring again to tne scenes of the past few days. Mr. Depew ventured the remark that a great many people had no doubt been impressed with the fact that the Governor of this State might be able to ride a nobby, but tnat no could not ride a horse, and he called out a general and hearty laugh when he reminded his hearers that the great difference between a horso . . A ana a nobby was tnat one couiu get ou a horse when he wanted to. Mr. Depew was followed by Mr. Henry v . uraay, who sooKe lor about ten min utes. Mr. Grady was followed by Gov. Gordon, who said: Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen In the few moments allotted me It is impossible to respond in fitting terms to tto sentiment Just proposed. I can do noting more than to express one or two thoughts evoked by the centennial occaMon. Georgia's position in this sisterhood of States is both interesting and unique, the was the young est or t lie original thirteen colonies which formed the Union, she is, therefore, the honored link In the family circle between the old and the new commonwealths of the RepubUc Although, for a brief period that link was severed, yet her love for her sisters and for the birthright of free dom, which all inherited, has survived the sepa ration. Ceorgia and her Southern sisters have never lost for a day or an hour their devotion and loyalty to the republican government and constitutional freedom which had united all in a common effort and inspiration a hundred years ago. Like the electric current, which will leap across a break in the wire and follow its course. o the spirit or 1780 thrilled through all tho States, even during tho period of separation and of war. Georgia's heart, at this hour, throbs with the same proud memories that pulsate in the heart of New York, and she rejoices that this great state, wuope glorious history Is the com mon heritage of all. and whose hospitality is as boundless as the great ocean which washes her shores, was by historical right the leader in this giand centennial movement. Georgia's hones are higher, and her confidence firmer in the fut ure concord of the whole American people, because of the commemoration of the great event which has Just convened the States and people in thi American metropolis. Will these hopes prove illusive, and this confidence be based upon a foundation of sand, to be swept away in a cy clone ot passion at the ncit presidential election! 1 trust not. I trust that the men who were hero, anil the people who were at home all oner tho country, will fiud their patriotism deepened and broadened by the contemplation of the great event which we have Just celebrated. 1 Pity the man whoao f pirit at a time Hie this does not thrill and revel in the thought that this is his country all of it his country; Georgia as well as New York: Houtn Carolina as well as Massachusetts; Maine, and California, and Texas

I utter a great truth, and one which the future will yet make plain to the apprehension of posterity, that, through all the dust and smoke of that bitter sectional conflict: through all the tears and the blood that was shed; through all the passions that were evoked, and all the woes that were endured, tho eye that is clearest, mind that is Just, can plainly discern an unfaltering love of the liberty which our fathers Jointly achieved, and an unabated devotion to the constitutional Republic which they Jointly established. liut i nave been bcRUllea uvthe thoughts wnicn crowd upon me Into a consumption of too much of your time, and 1 conclude with a single remark. If I maybe permitted a figure drawn from the statue of Liberty, whose uplifted flame lights your incomparable harbor, I would Bay that, upon this centennial cocasion, we should build a political light-house, grounded on tho rock of the Constitution, cemented In a sectional fellowship and mutual confidence, to throw Its light over land and eea, that we may avoid the reefs upon which the happiness of peoples and the stability of nations are stranded, wrecked and lost a political light-home whose quenchless flam shall sot only serve to guide the American people to all political truth and to the true basis of real unity, but "hall also guide the struggling peoples of the world in their onward march to freedom.
