TOE INDIANS FOUNDED CLAKKSON. A Great Batting Game Easily Won by Capt. Glasscock IJall-Flayers. Twelve hundred people? saw the IIoosieT ball team play a great game and defeat the Boston club in handsome style at the League Park yesterday afternoon, thereby dividina equally the games played with that tpm this season. The work of tho local men wau of the highest order, and the victory was an easy one, becanso of the general superiority of Captain Glasscock's combination. The chief feature of the contest was the remarkable pitching of Kusie, who held the visitors down to seven hits, which were well scattered through the. nine inriings. The young man was in fine form and pitched a grand game. He struck out no less than nine of the Boston men, among them Rich ardson and Nash, both of whom were retired twice on strikes. The visitors did not get a man anywhere near the home plate until the eighth inning, when Kelly made a home run. It looked, like a shutout up to this time, and the crowd hoped it would be. Kusie had good command of the ball ana used excellent judgment, being very effective at critical points. The team gave him splendid support. The only error charged to the loeal men was one by Hines. made on a difficult chance. The latter, by the way, played his position in tine style, making several splendid stops. Glasscock went back to short and Denny played second, both doing well. Sommers supported Kusie, and his catching wad much above the average. He had nine chances, accepting them all, in addition to which he made a single and a home run. Ch&rhson was in the box again when the game opened, but Le did not do very etlective work. Th Hoosiers hit him hard from the start, and in the sixth knocked the Boston boy out or the box. Madden taking his place, he going to right and Kelly behind the bat. Hines and Seery led off with sinftles in the first inning, but, after Andrews lad struck out, the home team was retired on a double play, Denny having made a hit, rilling the bases. The local men failed to score until the third, when they sent two unearned runs over the plate. After Glass cock and Buckley had been put out, McGeachy hit a vicious grounder to Nash who threw wild and the runner took second. He was on that base when Sommers drove the ball over the left-field fence and made thecircnit in a canter. In the next inning tne Hoosiers found the ball and knocked out four earned runs before any one had been retired, and added two more on an error and a sacrifice. Hines started off with a clean two-bagger to the fence and con e in ahead of Seery, when the latter put the ball over right field fence. Andrews followed with a single, and Denuy duplicated Secry'g performance. Not to be outdone. Captain Glasscoek hit safely. Buckley sent a grounder to Nash, who threw- to Smith to cut Jack off at second, but Smith muffed the ball, Glasscock and Buckley taking second and third on the error. McGoachy hit to right, butwas thrown ont by Kelly, though Glasscock scored on tho play. Sommers then sent a long fly to Johnston and Buckley came home on the out. The local mm added one more in the seventh on a hit by Buckley, Smith's error aud Sommers' s single. In the ninth Buckley made the fourth home run credited to his side, that being the last tally for the local men. Kelly's hit over tho fence gave the Boston their first run in tho eighth.

Spalding a letter requesting that a date be named for a conference between the National Lea cue committee and the Brotherhood committee which was refused a hearing last July. The Brotherhood committee was appointed to present to the League certain grievances, chief among which was the classification rule, but being refused a hearing, was discharged. Mr. Ward had no power to make any appointment and replied that he would reporter. Bpaulding's communication to the entire Brotherhood. More News of tne Combine. The stories about the threatened combine of the League players were strengthened last night by the following New York dispatch. It Is given for whatever It may be worth: NewYohk, Sept. 28. The New York syndicate of the Brotherhood of Base-ball-players today leased of Mr. James J. Coogan two blocks of ground, lying between One-hundred-and-nfty-seventh and One-hundred-and-flfty-nlnth streets, Eighth and Ninth avenues, for a term of ten J rears, at an annual rental of $24,000. They also eased the new Polo grounds, at One-hundred-and-tiity-flrth street, now held by President Day and the New York team, for a term of ten years, subject, however, to the lease now held by Mr. Day lor two years.

He has few equals in .sliding to bases, though plenty are his superiors in speed. League umpires are paid at the rate of $63 per week during the regular bail season. Western Association umpires get about $40. Jimmy Peoples has terminated his career as an umpire in the Tri-stato League. This fall Jim, with his grip, will tackle the road as a drummer.

Ht. Paul will close the season in second place. Minneapolis is now third, only a few points ahead of Sioux City, the latter having made a desperate fight to move up from fourth place. Milwaukee comes flrro, Denver sixth, St. Joseph seventh and Des Moines, the pennant-winners last year, a very poor tail-ender. Henry O'Brien, the pitcher of the East Liverpool. Ohio, Crockery City team, will probably wear an Allegheny uniform next week. President Nimick has been informed of the existence of this young twirler and he intends to give him a trial. O'Brien has good speed and several good deliveries, one of which is a good drop. In a game against the Wheeling team, a short time since, he struck out eight rueu and only permitted four singles, two of which were of tho scratch order. The St. Louis sporting News says: "Glasscock is receiving too much credit for good showing of the Hc.oMers since he took charge of them-that is, too much credit in the wrong direction. Glasscock's individual work, the fielding of Andrews, and the battlngof both Andrews and Seery have more to do with the club's rtceut successes than

any superiority of management on Glasscock's part. If these three men can duplicate their present work next year, s.nd Denny gets back into form, with one more pitcher, the Hoosiers will le in the swim for a place, at least. By a place we mean to finish in the first division." In an Interview with a Pittsburg Leader reporter. Captain Irwin, of the Washington club, and representative of the League Chapter in the Brotherhood, said: The Brotherhood was organized to protect the plavers; we are not wreckers. Our grievances will all belaid before the League, and there will be plenty of time - to talk about getting even after our conference with the League maguates has failed. Tho whole scheme was concocted by President Allen, of the Providence club, Radbourne and myself In -1685. It was prepared while we were members of the Providence club, and at a time whep the League was talking of freezing Providence out. It was published in a Providence paper as a special from New York city, and ci-eated a great deal of excitement. The bluff was effective at that time." TURF EVENTS. .

" PECULIARITIES OF COINS. Y False Ideas of People as to Their Values Call for New Pieces. Boston Advertiser. . "A great many people have an idea that the value of a coin depends upon some peculiarity in its appearance or its age," said a coin-broker, the other day. to an Advertiser reporter. "Now, this has nothing to do with it at all. The only thing that makes a com valuable to the collector is its rarity. "For instance," he said, throwing down an ordiiiarv-looking silver dollar, '"that coin is worth $4, and the silver dollar of 1804. which looks just like it, is worth at least $400. There are oulv two in Bostou. Mauy people think that the silver quarter of 1853 is worth a big premium, and there are-bushels of them brought inhere. The amount of it is, the 1853 quarter without the arrows beside the date is worth S3, bnt tho others only bring their face value. It is just the same with the5-cent pieces without the word "cents." Three-quarters of a million dollars' worth of theso were coined, and there are plenty of them floating around everywhere, and of course they command no premium, and yet people bring hundreds of them in here under the impression that they are worth two or three, dollars apiece. "We have lots of calls for new coins and bills, and people are ready to pay quite a premium for them. top. I am sure 1 don't know what they do with them, unless they give them as presents. The baugle craze seems to have died out. but we still have a great many calls for gold dollars. They are very scarce, though, and bring $1.75 easily. The government has stopped coining them now, except as proofs. It is said that the Chinese send a great many gold coins to their native country. They are very fond of showy ornaments, and many rich Chinamen use" American gold pieces for buttons. Thev also use them for charms, believing that a large numberof coins worn on the person is a sure protection against disease and accident. "The Chinese seem to regard the small coins, like the gold dollar and the five-cent nickel, as the most efficacious, aud when a Chinaman dies one of these coins is usually placed on his tongue. While the Chinaman places his faith in the little pieces, the superstitions American seems to believe in the power of tho big ones; and at any of the places where the street nrcnins go in swimming may be seon scores of big 'bungtown cents attached to a string and worn around the neck. They think they are safe from drowning as long as tho cent is worn. "One of the most curions coins in existence is the silver dollar coined br the Span iards durina the Dutch wars. It weighs I exactly tho same as our dollar, and its shape

is the peculiar thing about it These dollars are cut out by hand from sheets of silver, and then whittled down to the required weight and stamped. The result is that they are very irregular in form and no two are alike. What finally becomes of all the Sold and silver pieces coined? When the angle craze ended the women of America were carrying almost all the gold dollar currency of the country upon their necks, arms, and wrists. Many of the coins find their way into collections. Some are melted and worked into jewelry, but the most of them, nass from hand to hand until thev be

come below weight and are then melted up and recoined.'7 SOCIETIES AND FRATERNITIES. Odd-Fellows.
