Two Contests at Pittsburg, the First Being Neatly Taken by Indianapolis, Xhe Second Ono Lost by a New Pitcher's Wildnes3 and Indifferent Fielding Other Call GamesFast Trottitijr at Cleveland. 1IASE-UALL. Indianapolis and Plttebarg riay Two Games and Divide the Honors. Special to tLe Indiana polls Journal. Pittsbcro. P.i., Aug. 1. The Indianapolis and Pittsburg ball teams played two games on the home grounds this afternoon, the Hoosiers winning the tirst after a hard -uphill fight, and the local clnb scoring rather an easy victory in the second contest. Barring a remarkable one-handed catch of a line hit by Seery in the first game, and Getzein's good -work in the ninth inning, in.the same contest, there were no features worthy of special mention. The Hoosiershad on off day in the field, as did the Pittsburgers. The local team started off liko sure dinners in the opening inning of the first game, getting a good lead, principally through errors of the infield of the visitors. Denny mado two costly misplaya, Hanlon, the first batter, reached second on Denny's wild throw, and Carroll was hit with a pitched ball. Both stole a base at the same time, and crossed the plate on Beckley's fine twobagger. After Miller had gone out on a fly, JRowe made a hit and Beckley scored. Maul6ent a grounder to Glasscock, however, and a double play was the result The home team made no more runs until the fifth, when a hit by Sowders, a base on balls to- Carroll, after Hanlon had been retired, Beckley's single. Miller's two-bagger and Kowe's sacrifice scored three men. After this Getzein pitched in tine form, and Pittsburg could get no more runs. The TToosiers secured the first tally in the third. Basett hit past second, Getzein Jlew out to Hanlon. Seery's grounder got through Beckley's feet, and Bassott reached third Lmso, and scored on Glasscock's single to center. One more run was added in the fourth. After Sullivan and Daily had been retired, McGeachy got first on Kowo's error. The same player let Bassett's grounder get away from him. and McGeachy scored, fceery was hit with a pitched ball in the fifth, went to second on Glasscock1 sacrifice, moved np a base on Denny's short single, and scored on a hit by Hines. The latter reached second on the throw-in. Sullivan hit to Dnnlap, and Denny was caught at the plate. Miller threw wild to catch llines at third, and he scored on the error. In the seventh Glasscock led off with a twobagger, Denny made a single, and he and Glasscock scored on Hines's double. The latter advanced to third on Sullivan's out, and crossed the plate when Dunlap fumbled Daily's grounder. This ended the rungetting. It looked decidedly squally for the Hoosiers in the ninth, when Sowders led off with a hit and Hanlon got his base on balls. With two men on bases, no one out. and the heavy hitter to follow, it seemed almost a sure thing that the Hoosiera would lose. Getzein settled down, however, and retired the next three men without even a hit. Carroll flew out to McGeachy, and Sowders went to third. Beckley fouled ont to Denny. Hanlon had gone to second when Miller came to the bat. The little catcher knew that a single would win the game, and he tried hard to make it, but struck ont, and the contest was over. Score:

The second game was loosely played, and resulted in an easy victory for the home team. Anderson, the new pitcher, was in the box. but made rather a poor showing. He had great speed, but no command of the ball, sending seven men to tirst and hitting three. The umpire was very severe on him. however, and the team gave him wretched support. Manager Glasscock thinks the young man may yet succeed, and he will be given another trial. To-day's game was the first he has pitched for three weeks, and he would naturally be wild. Staley was very effective against the Hoosiers, aud had he been supported in better style the visitors would not have made as good a showing as they did. Boyle and Krock will pitch in to-morrow's games, and the former will leave for home in the evening. Getzein will pitch the final game on Saturday. Score: prrrsBUBO. inlB

The game from beginnirg to end was replete with brilliant plays. Haddock's pitching and Tom Daly's gilt-edge work were the most conspicuous features. John Irwin. Hoj Wilniot aud Kichardson made brilliant plays-the latter acceptine twelve chances without an error. The Bostons had a clear lead up to tho seventh inuing, when, alter chances had been oflered to retira the eid, Nash gave Beecher first on an error, anil he went to third on John Irwin's two-bagger.

Philadelphia, Aug. 1. Harry Lyons, the ball-player, to-day won his suit against President Von der Ahe, of tho St. Louis Base-ball Club, and received judgment for S7L40. The 6uit was the outgrowth of the contest for tho championship of the American Association last year.

In response to a summons. President Von der Ahe appeared before Magistrate Durham to-day. Ho said the prize was ottered to the managers of the various clubs, and not to tho individual players. He thought it was entirely optional with him whether he should divide tho money with the players, or should keep it all himself. He thought Lyons "and White did not play good ball durinsr the Association season. Kx-Manager Sullivan aud player McCarty were called to substantiate Mr. VonderAho. They said they thought tho prize was given to the management of tho championship clnb. They both thought, however, that Lyons did may good ball. The magistrate gave judgment for Lyons. Horace Phillips Seriously Afflicted. Philadelphia, Ang. V Horace Phillips, the manager of the Tittsburg Base-ball Clnb, arrived here to-day. His physician said this evening Mr. Phillips is suffering from acute paresis, and his case certainly looks hopeless. Catcher Sommers Secured.

ANOTHER miKl TO C0MADE3.
Commander Travis Issues a Circular Rehearsing Facts as to Railroad Rales. Department CommauderTravisyesterfiay issued another circular relative to the Milwankee encampment. It shows the earnestness with which he and other department commanders are insisting npon what they deem is due the old soldiers on tho strength of promises made. The circular is as follows: Comrades The persistent efforts being made to induce you to compromise your soldierly characters and to Imperii the honor of the Grand Army or the Republic by attending the National Bneaimenent ot Milwaukee, notwithstanding the wishes of your department commander, as expressed In circular Xo. U, njskes it necessary to address you acaln upon this subject. It U not altogether a matter of dollars and cents, but one of lair treatment, of honor and principle, involving Lhe cood name of the Grand Army of the Republic, that call upon you to Ftand by your colors. From the beginning of this controversy we have made no unreasonable requests or demands. "We have not even askea the railroad COmnanifitntrjit.thA Rrnl Armr nf th Ha. fmblic with the decency and respect to which It . s entitled; we have simply asked to be treated as well as any other society, or class, or organization, and this very reasonable demand the least that honorable men could make has been rejected. ! The orbdn of the controversy is fonnd in the i wiUful violation of the promise wbih were made to the twenty-secoud National Encampment by and in behalf of the citizens of MUwattke to secure the location of the National Encampment in that city this year. Xhe "fleecine" procs was first disclosed in the announcement .by the Chicaro. Milwaukee fc EL raid, n;ad. the Cbicaeo & Northwestern railroads, that tile rate to the National Encampment would be qmb fare for the round trip, or 1 cent and a h If per mile for the number of miles traveled. T' effectually carry out their scheme, these two ttiilroad companies secured control of the 'Goodrich Transportation Company, thus virtually controlling the transportation on the lakes, and preventing other roads which terminate on the lake from competing with them; but their avarice did not stop here. Not only did these two railroad companies cut oflf the hike, transportation from other railroad, except on terms which they should dictate, but they sent messengers to (jther railroad companies, and said to them, "if you offer a less rate than that which we have dictated, to the Milwaukee encampment, or to Chicago, or to any port on the lake, we will stop our tratlio with you; we will boycott you." And this, comrades, was done by these two railroads after they had made a positive promise that if Milwaukee was given tne encampment in 1889, the railroad rater should be as low if not lower than ever before. It ni ay be pertinently asked, why did not our comrades of the council of administration, or the executive committee at Milwaukee, for the honor of the Grand Army of the IiepubUc, and the people of Milwaukee for the name ot their beautiful city, arise in unison against this inf amous monopoly and thwart it by offering to chance the . encampment to some other city where the veterans would receive fair and honest treatment in the matter of transportation t It Is unnecessary for me to present to you the figures to show tat Masons, Odd-zellows, Knight of Pythias, Turnsrs. and every other kind of society or assemblage that has asked it, has been given a rata of 1 cent per mile, and even as low as cent per mils, at the very time, too, that the railroads refused to allow your commander to announce to yon that you would be permitted to ride upon their roads to your annual encampment at as low a rate of fare as was given to others. Comrades, what do you think ef the sltuationl Do you think wearo being treated juitlyorf airly! What do you say, comrades, you who served with Grant, Hiermnn, Sheridan, Thomas and Lopan, and carried your 1a-days rations and forty rounds" until the last enemy of our country and the flag was overthrown: you who served In the cavalry and artilUjry amiid shot, and shell, and saber etroke," and you who endured the filth, vermin and starvation of Anderson ville and Llbby, that this government might not perish from the eartnl Whatever your raak or station in the service, comrade, what do you think of such treatment! From all quarters the word is Snssed that the comrades are stsndingflmi. Tho atlonal Tribune says truly of us: "Nothing adds so much to the public estimation of the G. A. B. as to see it acting In perfect unanimity on any matter which assumes the aspect of a principle, as this question of railroad rates now does. Respect for the G. A. K. has been enormously increased by the solidarity it has repeatedly displayed at trying times in the last few years. If now the order, in a body, remains away from the national encampment, it will Increase public estimation of it immensely." I hare already written the executive committee at Milwaukee canceling the engagemen for camp grounds and withdrawing th Department of Indiana from the parade, which was to take place Aug. 27 prox. cUroilar action will be taken by nine or ten other departments. I fceleonfl3fc.nt that vou will sustain me in this action, as you did the action of the eight department commanders of July 2, and as you sustained the sentiments expressed in circular No. 3 of July 11. I earnestly request each of you to remain at home, unless, your duty calls you to Milwaukee during the, National Encampment. I take this opportunity to thank yon for your hearty and candid indorsement, as expressed In resolutions and unanimous votes of the poets, notices of which are reaching me daily in large numbers. In F., C. and L, Chas. M. Timvis, Department Commander, 1. N. Walkib, Assistant Adjt.-Gen. Dissemination of False Reports. Cuicago, Ang. L The Chicago Evening Journal, this afternoon, criticises severely the report furnished to Chicago papers, by the City Press Association, of the recent G. A. It. meeting in this city. It also denounces the G. A. R. representatives themselves for alleged attempt to unduly influence the preis in the interest of their boycott of offending railroads. Regarding the meeting of department commanders, Wednesday, which was held for the purpose of considering the advisability of adhering to their former recommendations of non-attendance, the Journal says, editorially: "One of the most mischievous parts of the conspiracy to boycott in which a few misguided Grand Army leaders have engaged, is the dissemination of false intelligence through the press. They have apparently obtained control of some special reporters, and load the teleSraph wires with lictious in regard to their oings. For instance, on Wednesday dispatches were sent to the Milwaukee press, if not elsowhero, absolutely stating that eight States were represented in Chicago at a secret meeting of kickers held that day, and a list of the department commanders is given, as if they were actually present. Tho story is absolntely false. t But two department commanders were in Chicago on that day Martin, of Illinois, and Brown, of Michigan. All the rest is fustian." No One-Cent llate to So Had. Milwaukee, Aug. 1. The encampment situation is rapidly growing worse. Today it is apparent that nothing much short of a miracle can prevent tho encampment, as an encampment, from being a failure. The last hope of getting urate of a cent a mile to bring large crowds to Milwaukee is gone. Twenty business men of Milwaukee held a conference this forenoon, with President Miller, of tho St. Paul road, and John B. George, of the Chicago fc Northwestern, and made strenuous attempts to induce the representatives of the two MilwankeeCfucago lines to favoractnt rate. President Miller stated positively that he conld not do anything toward securing the cent rate. Going Ahead with Preparations. Milwaukee, Wis., Ang. l. Tho boycotting circular of the eight State department commanders was discussed at a meeting of the local G. A. R. encampment council tonight. After a stormy session resolutions were adopted to go ahead with the preparations for the encampment; that the usual parade be held despite the refusal of those commanders to take part in it; that tho Grand Army men from Illinois. Iowa, Michigan, Indiana, Minnesota, Kansas aud Nebraska be organized in provisional battalions and given a place in the parade. Gasoline Explosion. Earlv yesterday morning fire damaged the residence of W. II. Horton, No. 24G Woodlawn avenue, to the extent of $100. The tire was caused by the explosion of a gasoline stove.

Mnwaukee SeatlneL At the Des Piaines (111.) camp-meeting a number of Methodists have professed holiness, " which means that they have so far overcome all weakness of the flesh that they are never tempted to sin. They refuse to repeat the Lord's prayer, because it implies that they have sins to be forgiven. In short, they are religious mugwumps.

hk Ytsr to fcr.il THE SWEETEST AND SEW PUBLICATIONS. 4South and West, Mith Conrmente on Canada," by Charles Dudley Warner, is a delightful and instinctive book. It is n record of a pilgrimage through lhe south' era portion of the United States to the cities of the lakes and on to Canada. The author's object tvas to make a series of studies in bis own words, "to note certain representative developements, tendencies, and dispositions the communication of which would lead to a better understanding between different sections." The book, therefore, is mora a social study than a description of places. In regard to a common impression that uniformity, even monotony, distinguishes civilization in the West. Mr. Warner says: "When we study a State at its center, its political action, its organization, its spirit, the management of its institutions of learning and of charity, the tendencies, restrictive or liberal, of its legislation, even the tone of social life and the code of manners, we discover distinctions, individualities, almost as many differencesas resemblances." The book abounds in keen observations of this kind as well as in shrewd analysis of character, delightful descriptions of scenery, kindly but just criticism, and charming word-pictures of men aud things. Half leather, $1.75. New York: Harper fc Bros.; Indianapolis: Bowen-Merrill Company. "The "Winning of the West," by Theodore Iioosevelt, is an important and valuable contribution to American history. It treats of the period from 1769 to 1783, when the French and English were struggling for leadership and mastery in the Mississippi valley. This struggle resulted in contests of diplomacy, as well as of arms; of statesmanship, as well as adventure. It is a period full of rich historic matter, much of which is buried in comparatively inaccessible places. Much of it is in original manuscripts and documents or in rare and obsolete histories. The author has made an extensive compilation of this material, and has produced a work of great interest and value. As a connected history of the first settlement of the great West and of tho formative period dnring which British ascendency was established in the Mississippi valley, it is. comprehensive and complete. Two volumes, octavo, clotb, with maps, 5. New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons. Indianapolis: Bowen-Merrill Company. "Onr Journey to the Hebrides," by Joseph Pennell and Elizabeth Roberts Pennell, is the narrative of a journey to and through that comparatively unknown region. In their preface the authors say they walked far enough to see the country as, they believe, it has seldom been seen by ordinary travelers, and, in a purely physical way, it was the most miserable trip that can be imagined in any civilized land. What with the rough weather and hard walking they had a dismal time, but this did not blind them to the beauty of the scenery and the wonderful natural effects that surrounded them. They describe the people as poor and down-trodden to tho last decree. The book is beautifully illustrated. Cloth, ornamental, $1.75. New York: Harper A. Bros.; Indianapolis: BowenMerrill Company. A new life of George Washington can hardly be classed as a literary novelty after so many have been published, but a good life of Washington always finds a place. The one written by Henry Cabot Lodge, and published by Houghton, Mifflin &. Co.. in the American Statesman series, is of this class. All the old materials of Washington's life and career, and much newly cleaned matter are woven together in the beet literary style, making a book of permanent interest and value. As a careful analysis and complete presentation of Washington's character and public services it has no superior. It is published in uniform style with other volumes of this series. Two volumes, cloth, $2.50. Indianapolis: Bowen-Merrill Company. "History of the People of Israel from the Keign of David to the Capture of Samaria," by Ernest Penan, author of "Life of Jesus," is an important contribution to the history of biblical times and of the Jewish people. It covers an interesting and critical period of that history, and illustrates to a remarkable degree the development of ancient morality and religion, and the evolution of the true idea of God. Added to this is an accurate history of the Israelites as recorded in the Bible and corroborated from other sources. The work shows learning and research in ancient and biblical literature.

The advertisement of the book speaks of it as relating "the astonishing and amusing adventures of a young man in his effort to secure the fruits of a tontine life insurance policy," and says "the tale derives its distinctive character from the infectious spirit of fantastic humor which pervades the narrative." The performance does not equal the promise. The Btory is grotesque, improbable, and almost repulsive. New York: Charles Sen brier's Sons; Indianapolis: Bowen-Merrill Company. "Uncle Peter's Trust, or Following the Drams." by George B. Perry, is an English story, but none tho less interesting for A: lerican boys. It is the story of an English lad who, beginning as a drummer boy, finally got into the regular service, and had many thrilling adventures.
