A GAME OF ELEVEN INNINGS

The Homo Team Plays Brilliantly, but Luck Favors the Chicago Visitors. It Was Up-Hill Work, but the Victory Belonged to the Iloosiers for Their Excellent Playing Other Games and Sports. HASE-RALL. The Visitor Won on Gambert's Home Kun in an Eleven-Inning Game. The opening game of the Chicago series at the League Park, yesterday afternoon, was one of the most brilliant contests ever Been on the home grounds. Although the visitors won it required eleven innings to . decide th game. No fault whatever can' be found with tho work of; the Hoosiers. They played great hall, from, the , start, putting much life ; and dash into their play, and that they did . not win was due mora to the luck of. Chicago than anything else. The work of the home team was' of a character that, showed a determination to score a victory. if possible, and Manager Glasscock deserves credit for the manner in which he kept his men moving. The team seems to have been inspired with new life since the change in management, and if. the men continue to pky as they did yesterday under their manager-captain's direction, they will unquestionably win greater proportion' of the games played than they have heretofore. The team work was excellent, the fielding brilliantand the hitting hard. Captain Glasscock seems to have the men well m nana, ana says there is not a player in the team who will not give the club his best efforts. The charge that the lioosiers were indifferent as to the results of their p4aying has. often been made, but the last four or live games played certainly disprove this. They played an up-hill game from the second inning yesterday, and pulled up with their opponents in the face of very discouraging circumstances. The visitors, also, played hne ball, in addition to which they had their usual luck. The fielding of both teams was cf a high order, only one error being made by each Bide. The one charged to tho Indianapolis club, however, cost two runs, while the one credited to the visitors only cost one. The home team excelled at the bat so far as hits were concerned, but Anson's men used the stick at the right time, especially in the eleventh inning. A home run drive, however, is not often made under snch circumstances, and in that sense that by Gurabert might be called luck. Getzein pitched a fine game. Snch pitching will win nine times out of ten when the support is us good as that inven the -lloosier . boxman. While nearly every man in the team diu something or a brilliant character, the playing of McGeachy was really the feature of the contest. His batting was remarkable, while his fielding and baserunning was excellent. Denny and Glasscock made several line plays, and Uassett's second-base work was clean throughout. Daily's catching was also good, and ilines showed up strong at the bat. For the visitors. Hastian, who played second in place of Pfeffer, the latter being laid off on account of a sore hand, did tho best work so far as chances were concerned. Both sides went out in order in the first inning, but in the second Chicago sent four vAVk nmnf1 rilOAfl ATI1 Tfri t I T Vl 1 f i"fcV r) Q against them the situation was not encouraging for the lioosiers. Had it not been for this lead the home team would have won hands down. In the second Ilines made a hit, but the next two men were retired on flies to the outfield. Then McGeachy made a single, but Uassett went out from Bastian to Anson. The latter got his base on balls and Gnmbert sent him to second with a single. Farrell dew out to Seery. and Burns to Ilines. Then Dwyer hit safe and Anson scored. Bastian followed with one of the same kind and Gmnhert earne home. Rvan's hot crronnder .was stopped by Getzein and fielded to Ilines, but the fatter let the ball get away irom him and two more men came home. After this Getzein settled down and not a man of tho visiting team could get across the plate until the eleventh inning. Several times they had men on bases, but failed to score. Tho home team was blanked until the sixth, when Getzein led off with a fine drive over the left field fence. The next three men .went out in order. In the seventh Ilines duplicated Getzein's performance. . iSallivan went out from Bastian to Anson, and Daily 6truck out. McGeachy reached second on a fine two-bagger and scored on ' Bassett's single. GetzcJn flew out to Bastian. Seery made a lift in the eighth, but was left. In the ninth the Iloosiers tied the score amid great excitement, Sullivan leading ff with a single and going to second on Daily's sacrifice, from where he came homo on 5lcGeachyf second two-bagger. The latter was left, however, when- Bassett and Getzein were retired. Chicago failed to do anything. Glasscock threw Anson out at first. Gumhert got his base on balls, but was doubled up with Farrell on a neat play in which Glasscock, Bassett and Ilines participated. Farrell hit a fly to center, which Glasscock got under. Gumhert, with two men out, went all the way to third before he found that he had made a blunder. In the eleventh, Ilines brought the crowd to its feet with a fine drive for two bases, and when Sullivan sent him home with a single the spectators gave vent to great applause. Daily bit a grounder to secoud- and was retired with Sullivan. Then McGeachy toed the mark and drove the ball to the fence for two bases, and immediately stole third. Bassett's grounder to Van Ilaltren was fumbled and McGeachv scored on the misplay. Getzein's grounder forced Basett at second. Thislead gave the crowd reason to hope for a victory, but base-ball is very uncertain. 'Getzein tried, butconldnot get the ball over the plate, and Van Ilaltren took first. Dully .lollowed with a scratch hit. Anson llew out to McGeachy, who returned tho ball to Glasscock in time to catch Van Ilaltren, as it appeared from the stand, but he was declared safe. Two strikes had been called on Gumhert, when he got one about waist high, and drove it over tho fence, winning the game. Score:

The statement emanating from Pittsburg to the e licet that the St. Louis base-ball team was to be transferred to Washington to enter tho League, created quite a stir here. When Mr. Von der Ahe was questioned concerning the removal scheme, he laughed outright. He said he had never even negotiated with tho Washington people, and that he had' no intention of leaving tho American Association. It was merely one of thoso periodical stories which go over the country about the Browns going to enter tho League. Mr. Von der Ahe says he never heard of Charley Janney, the alleged author of tho story, and Secretary Munson also states that he never knew such a person and never thought of such a story as is credited to him. There is no Charles Janney in business here; there is no such a name on the city directory, andno one could be found who had ever heard of such a person. 3lanager Glasscock Hopeful. Manager Glasscock said to a reporter, last night, that he had every reason to think that he will get good playing out of the lloosier team, and that he had no fear that the men would give him trouble oft tho . field. Ho says that tho players have promised him to give the club their best efforts. He expressed an intention to enforce the rules, if necessary, but thought that he would not be called upon to resort to any extreme measures. He speaks highly of the conduct of tho players since they left home the last time. Of llancrof t's management he fa id that his chief fault was in his treatment of tho players when they made misplays. He was very harsh with them, and had one or two of tho men so badly scared that they made many errors which the3 would not have made under other circumstances. Glasscock believes in encouraging players to take all possible chances, no matter if they do make blunders. An error can bo overlooked, out a laiiure to go for everything in sight will not be tolerated. Ho especially mentioned the line work of fcjeery and McGeachy, and spoke well of every member of the team. The new manager has some excellent ideas, and there appears to be no reason -why ho should not be a success. He will be given every opportunity by the management, and will have full charge of the club. Another Pitcher Secured. Anderson, a pitcher well known in the International and Western Leagues, has been signed by the local management, and will join the team in Cleveland on Monday. He was with tho St. Paul club last 6eason. and has played with tho California League. He was last with the Detroit club, and was highly recommended by Shreve, who telegraphed Manager Glasscock while tho iloosiers were in New York that Anderson was a first-class man. aud would bo a good one for the local Jeain. record show that 1i;m pitched bomo good ball, and the in;uingu nitnt has reason to think that ho will do

Eood work for the Iloosiers. Ho is a fine atter and a very fair general player. Thcro is also some prospect that Krock will bo secured, though the deal r:ts not yet been completed. Manager Ciasscock thinks well of Krock, and hopes to be able to secure him. It is eaid, too, that a claim has been put in for Sommers, tho catcher recently released by Chicago. Ho is a promising young player. To-Day's Came. The second game of the Chicago series will bo played this afternoon. Kusie will pitch for the home team and Tener for tho visitors. Such games as that of yesterday ought to draw largo crowds, no matter if tho team does lose. Tho Iloosiers will make another effort to win this afternoon.

and a gooa contest may be expected. I he game will be called at 8:S0, instead of 4 O'CiOCK. Ilase-Ball Notes. Boyle will pitch to-morrow. Healy is not with the Chicago team. Hi nos s error was excusable but costly. Manager Glasscock speaks well of Rusie's work in Chicago. It was one of the greatest up-hill games ever seen on the local grounds. Sullivan did some timely hitting, and helped his side by several good plays. There were no passed halls, wild nitehes or any other misplays of that character. - Getzein felt verv sore over the team de feat. He pitched a great game, however. The Hoosiers plaved as if thev meant to win. and that they did not was because of pure naru luck. The Hoosiers crawled out of a verv close place in the tenth inning. Burns led off with a two-bagger and got as far as third, but was left. McGeachy's batting record in yesterday game is rarely equaled. Two singles and three doubles out of live times at the bat is good enough. Anson has not made a hit in the last five games. The other members of tho team are beginning to wonder if the old man will ever find the ball. Harry Palmer, base-ball editor of th Tribune, is with the Chicago team, in the interest or nis paper. Mr. Palmer went around the world with tho Spalding comDinaiion. TURF KVENTS. The 810,000 Purse at Detroit Won by Ilendrlx In Three Straight Heats. Detroit, July 25. Fifteen thousand peo ple attended tho third day's races to-day.

Of course, the feature of the programme was the Merchants' and Manufacturers' stake of $10,000. Thero were fourteen starters in this race, all of them with good records. This was naturally the magnet that attracted the largest crowd ever seen on this track.' The track was very fast. President Campau officiated as starter to-dav. as it was thought advisable for him to go into the judges' stand on account of the bad starting heretofore. The talk to-day was all about tho horse Gene Smith and his peculiar conduct in his race with Kosaline Wilkes yesterday. It was the opinion of tho owner that the horse was dosed, but not the opinion of the knowing ones, who were satisfied it was a job to swell the coffers of the parties in the play.

Paul, July 25.-The third day of tho Twin City Jockey Club's races was not as largely attended as yesterday, owing to the threatening weather.

T am the only member of the commission," he said to a reporter, "east of Indianapolis, . and the people in my city appreciate my appointment, I know. I think the laying of the corner-stone of the monument will be a grand occasion. The Grand Army veterans 111 Richmond had contemplated attending the Milwaukee encampment, but when the railroads refused to give a reasonable rate they were a unit in staying at home. Now, however, they have decided to come here at the corner-stone laying, and I think you can count on about every veteran we have in the city doing so. They are as much of a unit on coming here as they are on staving away from Milwaukee" Don't Parade the Dollar MCark. To th Editor of tl IndlanaiMjUs Journal; In yesterday's issue it is stated tho following inscription is to appear on the corner-stone of the soldiers' monument: I Erected by Virtue of an Act : : of : The General Assemby : : Approved March 31, 1877, Appropriating : : $200,000. : ; Contributed hy the G. A. It. : ; And Citizens, $22,000. : : Aug. 22, 1889. : Would it not be infinitely better taste to leave the money consideration out! The almighty dollar stands out in too bold relief; it looks like parading its money value before tho world. This feature of it will most certainly be criticised to our great detriment. On many occasions we shall hear remarks as follows: "Is it not strange that these 'Hoosiers' cannot letsuch a beautiful memorial sneak for itself without the eost upon it?" Equally good taste would be exhibited were we to follow this prac tice on our tombs and monuments in Crown Hill. It promises to be a noble structure, of which all may be proud; but do let us be very careful that the sentiments expressed upon it shall not be marred by such a drawback, j. l. t.

Will Curaback's Impressions of People and Resources in trie Lone Star State. Tho Hon. Will Cumback has returned from his first visit to Texas. Ho saw a good deal of tho State, having entered it at Texarkana, in tho northeast corner and going thence west to Sherman and south to Georgetown, by the way of Fort Worth. This trip covered a distance of 500 miles. "Georgetown, where the Chautauqau Assembly was held," ho 6aid, "is about thirty miles north of Austin, has about four thousand inhabitants, and is beautifully located on the east bank of the San Gobriel river. The country through which I passed is the finest I have ever seen, It is all 8ii8ceptibleof cultivation, no waste lands, and is covered with growing cotton or corn, or the richest pasture. When properlr developed, the productions of Texas will astonish the world. The thing that surprised me most was the climate. I expected to be melted with the heat, going so far South in July, not being acclimated; but the truth is that I found the climate delightful, and did not sulfcr from the heat at any time while there. The breezes from the gulf so modify the heat that instead of being weakened by the hot weather, as we all are in Indiana, tho Southern breezes strengthen and exhilarate. Tho nights are delightful. You need a blanket before morning, and your sleep is refreshing and restful in the hot nights of July. The fruit of Texas is abundant and of the finest quality, yho peaches are immense. I saw tnein ten and twelve inches in circumference. They have grapes, tigs aud all the other fruits that we have in Indiana. Their watermelons are the best I have ever seen. No person can put any estimate on the possibility ot Texas." "How did the people treat youT You are a radical Kepuolican, which must have been known to them," the reporter asked. "Certainly they knew that before they invited me to come, and, as Artemus Ward said when asked the same question when he returned from Kentucky, they treated me well and often.' The truth is, I was never treated better in all my life by any-people. They are kind, generous and very hospitable, and, in short, they are very clever, in both the American and English definition of the word. I did not have a chance to make the acquaintance of anybody but the people of Georgetown and thoso attending the Assembly where I lectured. They all wanted to make my stay with them pleasant, and they did it. At Georgetown they have one of the best literary institutions in the State, and the people are a refined and cultivated people. Tho audiences at tho Assembly were large and very appreciative. While I nave addressed audiences in nearly every State in the Union, I have never found those who listen more attentively or whom it is more pleasant to talk to than the people of Texas. Georgetown gave 810,000 to help start the Chautauqua Assembly, and a lady of that place gave a large tract of land on which to erect tho buildings. The Assembly located there will in the no distant future rank among the best in the country." "How about politics!" "I heard very little of politics. The people seem to care more about developing the resources of tho country. They fully appreciate their great advantages, and intend to make the most of them, and they will give a hearty welcome to capital or labor to help them make Texas what she is suro to be the greatest State in the Union. In talking freely with intelligent Democrats I did not find that they were agreed in support of the Mills bill. I found some opposed very strongly to the free-trade tendencies of the party. The wool-growers aud the rapidly increasing manufacturing interests of Texas make it really a tariff State, and if the free-trade wing of the party make the platform and dictate tho policy of the Democracy it will not be long until they will loa Texas." "How about the old secession feeling!" "The stars and stripes were floating night and day over the auditorium of the Assem bly, in one 01 the addresses ot a eoutneru man to a large audience, in speaking of the attempt to establish a boutnern uoniederacy, lie said that he 'was glad the petition for divorce was not grantccy and the sentiment was cheerea.it seemed to me, by the whole audience; and when I uttered like sentiments before that great assembly it met with an equally hearty response. Thev engaged me to return next year to their Assembly, and I intend to do so. I am delighted with Texas and her people." "Is your lecture season over for this year!" "No. I go at once to assemblies at Chautauqua, Silver Lake, Oaktield and Clarendon, in the State of New York, and thence to Tetoskey, Mich." Wrongfully Criticised. Ben Thornton, the detective, who has gained a good reputation for his shrewdness and success, is feeling a little Bore at the treatment he has received at the hands of one of the Martinsville dailies. A few days ago he was approached hy a man in the Mayor's court who was a stranger tohim, but who volunteered the information that he knew several crooks who were going to Martinsville. The man also offered to go down and point out the thieves to the Martinsville authorities if his services were wanted. They were declined by Thornton, who, however, wrote a letter to Marshal Cox, of Martinsville, telling him what he had heard. The marshal replied ill a conrteonj letter, thanking him for his kindness, but in one of that town's dailies there appeared an editorial in which Mr. Thornton was charged with having ottered the service of a fellow-detective on condition that he bep.iul si..v a!tyandhis board.

A Councilman's Early Morning Experience with a Burglar. Councilman Gasper, living at No. 2$J North Noble street, had an experience with a burglar, about 3 o'clock yesterday morning. At that time ho heard some one at his window, and turning over in bed saw a man just on the point of entering through tho window ho had lust raised. The Councilman seized his Winchester rifle and chased the intruder. Just as as he got outside the door the burglar dashed around a corner, and although Mr. Gasper followed him half a square, he was unable to get a shot at him. This makes the third attempt within a short time to rob Mr. Gasper's house. An Energetic Woman. Mrs. Sarah Tyner, living near Philadelphia, Hancock county, made it lively, yesterday, for some thief. When she arose yesterday morning she missed twentynight fine pullets. She harnessed her horse and, in company with a neighbor, 6et oil to the city to find the stolen property. Several times along the road she heard of tho thief, and finally reached Budd's commission house, where sue learned that the man had just sold a dozen of tho chickens about fifteen minutes before her arrival. In company with a policeman she set off in search, of the thief. A, Farmer's Misfortune. John Adair, a farmer living near Toplar Grove, was found near the West Washington street car stables, yesterday morning at 3 o'clock, intoxicated and suffering from flesh wounds. He was removed to the City Hospital, where he claimed that he had. been waylaid and robbed in the old covered bridge over the river. His horse and buggy had disappeared, and he was unable to give an account of their whereabouts. It was thought by the police that he had fallen from the buggy. Tried to Tap Till. Ernest Fisher, a colored boy, seven years old, was arrested yesterday on a charge of attempting to tap a till at the grocery on the corner of East and Lockerbie streets. A Conflict of Authority. Deputy United States Marshal Conway went to Frankfort Wednesday night, to take charge of John Wilhelm, who is under arrest in that place on an accusation for counterfeiting. Conway expected to find Wilhelm out on bail and bring him to this city, but the latter had not been released from jail. A question arose a to whethor the State or the government had the most right to his custody. Conway claimed that counterfeiting is a crimeagainstthe United States, and, although punishable by State laws, is pre-eminently answerable in the federal court. He telegraphed the authorities in this city for instructions, and it is Erobablo that Wilhelm will be brought ere for trial. m DAILY WEATHER 1JULL.ETEN'. Local Forecasts.
