WASHINGTON', 13; CHICAGO, 6. Washington, May 21. Inability to hit Fearson's effective pitching with any degree of success, and poor fielding on the part of Chicago gave the Senators an easy victory to-day. The home club apparently had no trouble in solving Hutchinson's delivery, and they fielded in good style. Fearson's rork in the box and Myers's fieldin? were the features.

Louisville hasn't 'lost a Saturday gamo this season. All of its victories have been won or. that day. Keefe.Ebright. O'Day, Myers and Wise, of the Washington team, have been fined 25 each for dissipation. Sunday was timed in his three-base run Saturday. It took him 10 4-5 seconds. Had it been a home run he would havo madoa record. John J. Burdock, the second baseman, has retired from active work on the diamond to become a clerk in a ready-made clothing store in New York. McQnaid will umpire the games in New lorlcthis week. Lynch goes to Boston, Barnuru to Philadelphia, and Fessenden and Curry to Washington. Washington accepted the services of Tom Daly, but it appears that the acceptance came after Daly's ten days were up, so that any club has a right to negotiate with the ex-Chicago player. The base-ball club of Union City ha reorganized for the season, and would be

pleased to make dates with all first-class amateur clubs. Tho season opens May SO with two games with the Indianapolis Easterns. Manaeers of clubs wishing dates ihould address J. N. Wallace, jr., manager, at Union City. President Young decides that a base-runner should bo credited with a stolen base under the following circumstances: For instance, Qninn wa3 on first base and Ganzel at bat with two strikes and three balls called. As the next ball is pitched Quinn makes a dive for second, without knowing whether the umpire would call a ball or a strike. He took tho chances and should be rewarded accordingly. As it turned out, the umpire called four balls, but Quinn gets a stolen base all the same. TIIK RACES.

THE GENERAL ASSEMBLIES

Northern Presbyterians Again Consider Needs of Freedmen and Immigrants. The Committee of the Southern Assembly Largely in Farorof Co-Operation with the Church of the North Other Meetings. rKESBYTERIAN BODIES. Another Day Spent by the Northern Assembly In Discussing Ilome Missions. New York, May 21 The Presbyterian General Assembly continued its session today. The general order of the day the consideration of the fourth resolution offered by the special committee of tho hoard of freedm enwas taken tip. It was this report that caused a controversy on Friday between Kev. Drs. Dickey and Hamlin. Yesterday an attempt to effect a compromise between the two factions was begun. Rev. Dr. Crosby this morning moved to strike out a portion of the resolution, which he considered would arrange matters to the satisfaction of all. The portion to be stricken out was that relating to the confidence the assembly placed in the ability of the board of freedmen. This was the objectionable portion. Rev. Dr. KetchUm offered a substitute for Dr. Crosby's motion, but the hour having arrived for the home mission report, the debate was brought to an end. Rev. Dr. Nichols, chairman of the committee on home missions, then read his report. The report recommended that for the ensuing year the sum of 875,000 be authorized for the use of home missions. This large amount is considered necessary because of the rapid rate at which the Western and Northwestern portions of this country are being settled, and for work among the white and black population of the South. The Woman's Home Mission, unaided and alone, raised the sum of $C61,000 during the year. The report of the committee, on the whole, was a highly satisfactory one, and was heartily applauded. Mr. Thomas Kano, of Chicago, gave the assembly a few hints in relation to obtaining donations for the home missions. His advice was to write profuse letters of thanks to all who gave. Then the debate on the report of the board of home missions was resumed and Sarticipated in by Robert T. Sims, Rev. ohn Menaud, M. D., Rev. Kdgar L. Williams, of Illinois, and Rev. Dr. Robert N. Adams, of Minnesota, who spoke of the bad condition, of affairs in the Black Hills. Then the debate was closed, and the resolutions as recommended by the committeo were adopte 1. Recess. When the afternoon session opened, tho Rev. Dr. T. S. Hamlin, of Washington. President Harrison's pastor, spoke, and disapproved of using the foreign languages in church work as much as possible, and thought that the use of German should not be continued beyond the first generation. ; Rev. Dr. Ambrose C. Smith, of Illinois; wanted to know just how many first generations there were. "You have lirst pen-j erations of German and other nationalities coming here to-day, and this will probably continue for years to come. We want to evangelize and Americanize Europeans ah riving in this country. The only means; we have to do this are two schools sus-j tained by this assembly, who can preach! to their countrymenin the German tongue.' Dr. Smith thought that if the German theological school at Dubuque, of, which ho was president, got an endowment of 100,000. it could fulfill its mission of educating and evangelizing the German population of the Northwest for all time. I Some speakers referred to the effective; work being done by the Synod of Miune--sota, among the Scandinavians and Bohemians. They had established an organi-; zation amotg the latter, and were doing: their best to attend to tho wants of the? Scandinavian population. It was agreed to add another secretary to the force of the; board of home missions, and it was decided he must be able to preach in German. The report of the standing committee of the board of aid for colleges was presented: by Rev. Dr. Thomas S. Hastings. . One-", third of the Presbyterian churches had made donations. Dr. Hastings said the board of aid would require $100,000 or 200,000. The report recommended that the Bible be adopted as the only textbook in any school endowed by the board of aid; that special attention be paid to the establishment of a Presbyterian academy midway between the common school and the college. Tho following were re-elected members of the board: Rev. Dr. H. Johnson, Rev. Dr. S. J. McPherson, Rev. Dr. John W. Dinsmore, Rev. Dr. J. L. Withrow, Charles M. Charmley, Homer N. Hibbard, Robert H. McClelland and W. II. Swift. The report and recommendations were unanimously adopted. Clause 4 of the recommendations of the committee on missions among the freedmen, commending the fidelity of the commit- -tee, their continuance in office, and their management of the board, then came up for. discussion. The Presbytery of Washington, through Rev. Dr. Hamlin, opposed the passage of this clauso on Friday last, on charges which were not made public, and tho action of the matter was put off until to-day, and again until to-morrow. The woman's executive committee of the Presbyterian missions to-day elected Mrs. L. R. James president, and a long list of vice-presidents. The Southern Assembly. Chattanooga, Tenn., May 21. The chief business of tho Presbyterian Assembly, today, was the report of tho committee on co-operation between the Northern and Southern assemblies. The report says: The report was taken up in its various divisions, and the discussion of all parts involved therein was free and unrestrained. After full consideration the committee recommend to the assembly the adoption of the report as a whole." The committeo stoo d 15 to 7 in favor of the report. The committeo on the stato of the church submitted a report, recommending more careful observance of family worship, and greatly deploring the neglect in this regards recommending closer regard for the evangelization of the negro, and urcing that much good could be accomplished if whito ministers would more actively work in the lield. A falling off in church attendance, in tho larger cities at night, is reported, aud a suggestion made that perhaps it would be well to consider the abolition of night sessions, and hold, instead, afternoon meetings for mission work. This suggestion, however, was stricken ont. Rev. Alonzo P. Peak, of the Dutch Reformed Church, presented the greetings of his church, and the assembly accepted them, and responded with resolutions of regard. The committee report on the case of the Presbytery of Mecklenburg versus the Synod of North Carolina, sustained the synod. The afternoon session was devoted to discussion of the celebrated Woodrow case, the point in discussion being whether the decision of the assembly in the matter ayear ago was general, and its application general or referred only to that particular case. T. C. Whaling and Dr. J. B. Adger delivered addresses, arguing that the decision was special in its application, while Dr. J. L. Girardeau took opposite grounds. Tho discussion will be continued to-morrow. At the night session reports were received from returned missionaries as to the wort in their fields. Cumberland General Assembly. Kansas City, May 21. At the fifth day's session of the Cumberland Presbyterian General Assembly the action of the board of ministerial relief, in providing for the office of corresponding secretary and appointing Rev. J. H. Miller, of Evansville, to this position, was indorsed, and the work of the board heartily commended. The overture of two Illinois presbyteries, asking for the formation of anew synod, was denied. Tho report on missions, as adopted, indorses tho call of the board of missions for $50,000 during this year, and provides for the raising of this amount by apportioning it among the presbyteries. The receipts for the past year show a gain of but $200 over those of tue preceding year, whiio the expenditures are much greater, leaving a debt of $6,000. In view of this and of the magnitude of the work, and the need of reinforcements in Japan and Mexico, and tho pressing

claims of the work at home, the members of the church are urged to larger liberality. An able report on Sabbath observances was read, and is to be discussed at a public meeting to be held on Wednesday eveniug. Dr. W. P. Crafts, of New York, is invited to address the assembly at that time. Tho report of the committee on publication, as adopted, approves the employment of Rov. W. J. Darlev at general manager, and of Rev. 31. V. DeWitt as Sundayschool editor and suoerintendent. As to the matter of a publishing house, the report recommends that the board do nothing further during the current year than to purchase a lot, and leave tho question as to location to the discretion of the board.

You couldn't expect a man who has never had any experience in the business to do a correct and artistic piece of workin hanging one man, and when it comes to taking care of three at once you may confidently expect a bad bungle if a novice undertakes to do it." The speaker was Daniel T. Binkley, the well-known executioner, whom a Times reporter found yesterday comfortably reading a newspaper in his apartments at the corner of Eighth vand Grand avenue. This man. who has probably hanged more criminals than any other man in the United States, is an oddity. He talks of the hangman's dread work as seriously and coolly as a college professor would demonstrate an every -day theory in physics. Onr profession is just like any other in the fact that it can be practiced poorly or well." continued Mr. Binkley. In order to attain any eminence in it a man must giv.rit careful study and thought, and it is not efery man who can conduct an execution without any friction or unpleasing effects From what I have heard and read of the 0?ark performance, I judge that it was a very crude piece of work. "Now, in the construction of the machine or galjows there is room for innumerable blunders. There are as many difierent machines as there are executioners, for everyone has his own pet ideas. I build mine eighteen feet high, altogether, leaving ten feet between the ground and the floor. 'After1 allowing eight inches for tl floor itself, this will give seven feet four inches between the floor aad the beam. The trap is, of course, the most delicate part of the machine. In the Ozark job they used one big trap for three men. Now, if they had had an individual trap for each man, they could have xehanged young Will Walker immediately, instead of waiting until the others w ere taken town. I alwavs support the trap with slides or latches of hard wood underneath, so arranged that they can be worked by a siuglo lever placed either at the rear or side of the platform. Then I always have a rope fastened on the under side of the trap near tho front, running under the trap and over a pulley at the rear. On the end I have a bag of sand or other weighof two hundred pounds or so, so that when it is snrung it will fly swiftly back and remain tight against the floor. Tho weight serves also to keep it in place, so that it may not fly back and hit the subject. 1 once saw a man's head almost knocked off by a returning trap. It was very annoying. I don't like the spring arrangement; it is too bunglesome and noisy for artistic effect. I always pad the bottoms of my traps so they will move back noiselessly. The action should always be quick, so that the trap may keep out of tho way of your man's feet. With my arrangement it generally keeps about eight inches ahead of him. Then a point in physical science comes up in placing your man on tho trap. He should be about the middle, well toward the front. If placed too far back you are likely to see a sliding motion in the fall, whichis always in bad form. "Now the next important point is the rope. I have one here which I used in hanging Sylvester Grubb, at Vincennes. lnd.t April lv" and opening a bureau drawer, Binkley took out a coil of dirty, greasy-looking, three-quarter-inch rope. 'I used considerable care in getting this, having it made especially from long fiber hemp. I have no nse for ordinary hemp. As soon as I got it I hung it up, with a two-hundred-pound bag of sand on tho end, and found tnat in twenty-four hours the twenty-foot rope stretched eight inches. A rope is always likely to stretch, and I think that's where the Ozark people made their greatest miscalculation. I spent several hoursworking it over with beeswax, so that it would slide easy. The old knot was with nine wraps like this," and be made a noose, giving it to the reporter to hold while he tied the regulation hangman's knot, 'but you see it makes a very large and awkward knot." In order to illustrate his assertion, he slipped the noose over his head and drew the knot up taut under his left car. 'Now, I have always obtained better results from a Knot of four wraps. The big knot is liable to sag the man's head over into a bad attitude. "In order to determine upon the drop you must study the subject's weight and habits. Now if I were going to hang a man of light weight like you 1 would want a longer fall than for a heavy man, but your muscles are soft," and the hangman clasped his clammy baud about the reporter's throat, "and it would not requirea long drop to breakyonr neck. I never drop a man less than tive feet nor more than eight, generally about sir and a half. 1 always take up my slack with rubber bands, so as to hold the noose in place. His bad husiuessto let it slip around the subject's chin or to let the knot get out of place. An executioner who understands his profession will never fail to break a man's neck, never strangle him nor make an abxasion of the skin." Chicago Modesty. Washington Post We believe it was a member of the Chicago Literary Aggregation who, on being asked if he could read Greok, modestly replied: "I tLui taer. I njavex tried."
