HAVAX.V. Oot. K.-JJeutenant Francisco Gllego. of the Spanish navy, commander or the small guard boat Dos li Mayo, formerly a pilot boat, which was captured by the imargents In A?sfradero bay, near Santiago tie. Cuba, the'oflicers and crew bein5 subsiuently released and brought here prisoners, has been.trlej by court-martial. The evidence furnUhed at the trial shows that the Lieutenant Kft Santiago tie Cuba on board the Dos tie Mayo with a crew of twelve men, under verbal orders from the commander of the cruiser Helna. Mercedes, to which the Lieutenant and his men were attached, to watch the sixty miles of coast between Turqulno and Santiago 'de Cuba. He was Instructed to keep a sharp lookout for filibusters, to watch any suspicious movements ashore and not to communicate with the land. The Lieutenant obeyed his orders, but on Oct. 9 he v.ent into Asseradcro bay to replenish the guard boat's vater casks. He sent a boat ashore with a corporal of marine In charge and' with four soldiers at the oart. On landing the boat's crew set about filling the water ca?ks they had brought ashore with them, having to go sorre way Inland and among th trees to reach a fresh water stream. While filling the casks the . sallcra ivere suddenly surrounded by a strong force of Insurgent and were borne down by numbers before they could make any effective resistance. A man who had" been left in charge of the boat gave, the aUrm, and the Lieutenant ordered the remainder of his crew to quarters, manned the rapid-fire gun which formed the armanent,of the Uttle guard boat and opened lire ou the .Insurgents. The fire of the Dos de Mayo, however, had little or no effect on the enemy, as the latter were well heltered by the thickness of the woods ashore and by .Tense undergrowth. After awhile, Hieing tiiat no damage was being done to the indulgent. Lieutenant (Jallego ordered the gunners 0 cease firing, and some time later the enemy eent a message to the guard boat saying that the prisoners captimd would be put to dath If the Lieutenant did not surrender with the remainder of his crew and give up the rapid-flre gun' anil its ammunition, and all the weapons. The Lieutenant, desirous of saving the lives of the prisoners. asked what guarantee would te 2iven h!m that they would not be killed. The messenger thereupon returntd to the shoro and some time afterwards the insurgent ltader, second In command of the force which had captured the Spanish sailors, went off to the Dos de .Mayo and assured Lieutenant Gallego that the terms asreed cn would be lived up to by the insurgents. Tho arrangement to exchange th2 arm ami ammunition of the prisoners was then completed. The Lieutenant handed over n.ne rifles and nine swords to the Insurgents, and aUo gave up I.C)- round of. ammunition. The rapid-fire gun. for some reason, was left on board, prohably because It was only, adapted for use on board ship, and was a cumbersome weapon anyhow. The Insurgents ihen returned to the woods and the Dos D Mayo, when the captive sailors had been returned on board, began making" preparations to return to .Santiago tie Cuba. So soon as there was wind enough this was done and in due course of time the guard boat anchored near the Itelna Mercedes at that por; and Lieutenant Gallega, very much crestfallen at his disgrace, reported to the commander of that war ship end was promptly placed under arrest. The crew of Dos de Mayo were alo kept under guard and they were all sent here tor trial, 'ihe sailors, however, were more needed as witnesses than for any other purpose. They arrived here on Thursday last. When the lieutenant, during the course of his trial, was asked why he did not arrest the insurgent chief when the latter was In his power, he replied that he had pledged hJs word not to arrest or injure the emissary of the insurgents, and he kept his word. Asked why he did not pull up anchor and get out of Asseradero bay, when he saw that his boat's 'crew was captured, the Lieutenant answered that there was not enough wind o give the Dos de Mayo sferag? way, and that besides the insurgents had brought two field riece down to the shore and had placed them so advantageously that their rira would most likely have sunk the guard boat in a very short time. In. fact, this the strongest argument in compelling the lieutenant to agree to exchange his arms for the prisoners. The captured sailors of the Dos De Mayo were then examined, and they testified in substance to the facts detailed above. Extenuating circumstances were claimed In the case against the iieutenant, and the prosecuting officer only Asked the court to sentence ihe prionsr to t.Yo months' arrest. The lieutenant is to b congratulated on having escaped a demand for a much more severe penalty. iCapt. Gen. Martinez d Campos has decided to grant the request made by several newspapers for permission to send correspondents with tho troops operating against the insurgents. They will, however, be require! to obtain regular passes from the military authorities, thoroughly establishing their Identity, and will be unler the restrictions usual in such cases. The correspondents will be allowed the regular rations of te Spanish soliiers in the field. All luxuries will have to be supplied by the correspondents themselves. The Insurgent yestenlay net loos the cattle at the Ftemedlos slaughter hous. There are now ninety-nine political iDrisoners In Ja!l at Sagua.

Another Fllllmnterlnyr Kxpetlltlon LeTf the I'nltctl State. NEW YORK. Oct. 28. The World tomorrow will say: Carlos Manuel De Cespedes, yon of the first President of the Cuban provincial republic of twenty years ajo, is upon the high seas at tho head of an expedition which expects to' land ia Cuba in a few days. He Is accompanied jy nearly one hundred enthusiastic young men, all armed, who have determined to f.ght the Spaniards for Cuba's liberation. The expedition was quietly fitted out In this city during the last three months, and ".o money was spared to make It a success. t started from the Delaware river early ast wetd. The vessel which carries De Oj'pedes and his men to Cuba is a large . chooner of tho clipper style, fitted with -apid fire guns. Hhe has in her hold D00 .Vlnchester and Remington rlfls, SO.OCO artrldges, two Catling guns, oo machines :nd half a ton of dynamite. The men v ho accompany D Cespedes are wcllrtlled and uniformed.

sent him by the Wabash Tlaln Dealer, takes a decided stand in favor of the recognition of tho Cubans as belligerents. Major Steele states that he has not given the subject careful attent'.on. but he has learned enough to satisfy him that the Insurgents are entitled to recognition and will vote for the proposition should It be presented in Congress. The readiness of h'rain to recognize the Confederacy within forty days after Sumter was fired upon, in had much to do with the formulation of his opinion In the present crisis. - Last niht at the Grand Army Hall, in th'.s city, there was a large attendance at the Joint meeting of James H. Emmet Post O. A. It. and the Woman's Relief Corps, called for the purpose of taking action on the Cuban question. Department Commander Shlvly was present and delivered an Inspiring address on the subject. A set of resolutions commending the course of the Cubans and condemning the Spanish government for its eppression and barbarism war uanimously adopted. Captain Hess and wife, of Indianapolis, were present and jnade a few remarks. Filibuster to lie Vtehel. WASHINGTON, Oct. The State Department officials are still apprehensive of trouble with Cuban filibusters and are determined that nothing snail be left undone to prevent any hostile 'expeditions fitting out in this country. It was shown in a letter received to-day at the revenue cutter office that the State Department had been requested to give its consent to the withdrawal of the revenue cutter fleet from the Florida coast in order that the vessels mljfht be assigned to, their regular winter duty along the coast further north. The reply from the State Department waa prompt and decisive in the negative. The service performed by the revenue cutters during the winter months in aiding vessels in distress is very important. Assistance is rendered many vessels , and many lives are saved each winter by the timely aid of these vessels, which cruise along the coast in search of disabled vessels. The necessity, therefore, which keeps them from this duty must be regarded as very great. It is not known whether they will be relieved from their present duty during' the entire winter. Attitude of Mexican. CITY OF MEXICO, Oct. 26.The altitude of the clerical press toward the Cuban cause Is unfriendly, as this section of the press of Mexico has marked monarchical leaning and favors Spain, mainly on that account, and also because Spanish influence In church affairs is powerful. The sympathy of the masses of the Mexican people ia undoubtedly with the Cubans. The government has expressed sympathy with neither party to the quarrel, preferring to maintain an attitude of strict neutrality, especially as its relations with Spain are most cordial at present. Spaniards are raising much money for their cause. There is a strong pro-Cuban sentiment at Vera Cruz and In all the gulf ports where there are many Cubans, some of them refugees. The liberal press, as a rule, favors the Idea of .ultimately merging Cuba's personal fortunes with Mexico. o PerlnU All Traltorn." KEY WEST, Fla., Oct. 25. Letters from Cuba state ttat -the insurgents have taken a terrible revenge on Rogue Corral, whom they suspected of treachery. Corral was Mayor of a town near Cienfuegoes, and professed devotion to the patriot cause. The Insurgent leaders used him as a means of communication with friends in the United States. Recently the Insurgents learned that Corral had been corrupted by Spain and had been playing the traitor. Tuesday morning the corpse of the Mayor was found outside the gates of the town. He had been hacked to pieces with swords and decapitated. Pinned to his breast was a card reading: "So perish all traitors to Cuba." Insurgents to De Crushed. TAMPA, Fla., Oct. K. Deductions from. Spanish papers inlicate that at the conference between Canovas and the Minister of the Navy it was agreed to provide immediately for further war material. They will place torpedoes at the entrance to all Cuban ports and the next mall steamer, is to carry to Cuba 150 tons of torpedo material. Spain, It is asserted, will arm merchant vessels and the government contemplates raising the army to a hal! million. A call has been made to all men under forty years of age to enlist In the service.

COLT AND VAX ALEX. . No Trobablllly That the Xew I'nglnnd Sen mini AVI11 lie Allowed to Sleep. " PROVIDENCE, R. I., Oct. CG. Colonel Colt returned from New York to-day. His attorneys say he went there on business connected with the Rubber Trust and that his visit had absolutely nothing to do with the Van Alen case or anything pertaining to the present trouble. Attorney Francis Conwell said this afternoon that all talk of a possible settlement was utter foolishness; that Colonel Colt was just as determined as ever to push the case against Mr. Van Alen and would bring suit in every State In which Mr. Van Alen might locate. Mrs. Colt's attorneys have given out that their visit to New York with their client was to secure affldavits from a witness who would be called upon to testify when her suit against Col. Colt comes up. This course was necessary, as the laws of Rhode Island allow Colonel Colt to demand a "bill of particulars" before the case comes to trial. Mr. Van Alen's friends here admit that he hopes for a settlement of some kind without a fight in the courts. Heavy Movement of Cattle. FORT WORTH, Tex., Oct. 26. The cattle movement from the State, especially from the Panhandle country, has been quite large the past few weeks. From the latter country alone there have been shipped out 30.000 head of cattle, most of the stock going to the Northern markets, St. Louis in partlculer. The total shipment to be made from the Amariilo country will not fall short of lOO.CO) head and will bring to the stock ralsrs $2,500,000. It is claimed that Amariilo has become the largest original shipping point in the world. Ten carloads of beef cattle from Chihuahua, Mexico, will arrive here in the morning for sale on the Fort Worth market. This will make the first consignment of stock direct from Mexico to Fori Worth. Illinois Doodlers Indicted. TEOnH, 111.. Oct 2C.-The grand jury this afternoon returned an indictment against Simon Schafer, of Chicago, Representative in the last Legislature, for offering to receive a brfbe. He introduced a bill to prohibit feeding of slop to cattle and visited Peoria several times while the measure was pending. There is evidence that he tried to get money from Peoria distillers to kill the bill. The grand Jury has been investigating legislative boodllng. but this is the only case in which evidence was sufficient for an indictment. Mnbcl llnrlford lletelU Her Story. ST. LOUIS, Oct. 26.

WABASH PLAYS WELL

nv sipintioii work difc-Ctcd HLTLi:il IS A FOOT HALL GA3IB. A Score of lO to Cnpt. Uegluald Salllvan. of AVnbanh, n Good General Other Games. The . football team representing Wabash College won the first intercollegiate game of the series to be played in the city this season by defeating the Butler University eleven, yesterday afternoon, the final score being 10 to 6. The game was one of tho hardest ever fought on the gridiron In this city, and although several of the players were slightly Injured at times there was little rough play In?. Wabash won the game by superior playing at all points, although the team has been at the disadvantage of training withoot a coach until within the last two weeks. The Wabash men seem to have more of the natural ability for the game than the university men, although the latter have been under the supervision of one of the most efficient coachers in th West. Rlstlne, the young full back of the Wabash team, deserves a great deal of credit for his team victory, for it was by his clever work that many of the gains were made. The Wabash center was stronger than that of Butler, and, as a consequence, the ball was often fumbled when it was In Butler's possesion. Many of Stevenson's fumbles at quarter-back were inexcusable, and were largely responsible for Butler's defeat. , The winning touchdown was made late in the second half. ' The score was 6 to 4 In Butler's favor. Wabash, by a series of line plays, had carried tho ball the entire length of the field, and were within fifteen yards of the goal line, when Captain Reginald Sullivan proved his right to the position of general of hl3 team by giving a signal for a play which he had saved all during the game till a critical moment. It was the old-time "criss cross," but it worked to perfection. Butler was thrown completely off her guard, and Williams carried the ball over the lino for the final touchdown. The Wabash sympathizers were wild with delight when the final goal was made. About one hundred students from Crawfordsvllle accompanied their team to this city, and they made enough noise for twice their number. But when the game was won they acted as though insane in their attempts to express their feelings. Last year their team had been beaten by a score of 08 to 0 by the Butler men, and although the score yesterday was not to be compared, yet they eeemed to feel that to some extent the d If grace of last year's contest was wiped out. The Butler team work was very good, but several of the individual players were so weak that they lot the game. Coacher Flint's work was visible In the interference put up on the end runs, but with the fumbling of Stevenson and the weak playing of Loop and Clymer the team work was of no avail. Thompson, the new half back, proved his ability. Baker, as the other half, played with his old-time spirit. Parker and Freeman, on the ends, made many brilliant tackles. Wright saved a big gain by a good tackle at one time. He played a fair center against Rauch, who is known as a strong man in the position. He waa perhaps responsible for eome of Stevenson's fumbles, but many of them were inexcusable. Relnhardt played an excellent gvimo at full back. . Captain Sullivan, of Wabash, played a heady game and his generalship was splendid. But he worked the weak spot in the Butler line too long in the first half, or he might have made. another touchdown. At quarter he was cool-headed and quick. Rlstlne was a star of his team. He is only eighteen years of age, and his ability to go through the line is something remarkable. He would shoot through the line like a cannon-baJl, and even after being downed he w'ould sdlp up several feet. The Wabash play was not as well together as that of Butler. There were about six hundred people present ani mot of them wore the colors of either one or the other college. The game was such as delights spectators, for many of the plays were open and could be understood. The play was hard and fast and many of the players were winded, much time being occupied by dressing up injured men. Iteinhardt had his wrist badly sprained and Baker had a rib which had been injured before wounded again. Clouser had his knee severely wrenched. THE LINK-UP. The two teams lined up as follows: Butler. Positions. Wabash. E. Parker..... ....Right end Flannagan Lister,' capt Right tackle Ash'nan Osborn Right guard Farrell Wright Center Rauch Loop Left guard Demaree Clymer ....Left tackle Mulroney Fryman Left end.... Pattison Stevenson Quarter back.. Sullivan, capt. Thompson Right half back Clouser Baker Left half back Reed Rhinehart Full back Ristino Umpire Toocher, of the University of Chicago. Referee Cooper, ef the University of Illinois. ' Linesmen Scott and Felix. Timekeeper Joss. Time Thirty-minute halves On the toss-up Butler won, and, with a slight wind blowing from the west, chose the west goal. The men lined up and appeared to be about the same weight. Wabash placed the ball in the center of the field, and Ristine kicked it off for twenty yards. The Wabash men followed the ball well, and by tho time Relnhardt had put it in play they had downed him. On the lineup tho ball was passed to Thompson, and he set the Butler rooters wild by making twenty yeards around the left end before he- was downed. After two rank fumbles by Stevenson, the ball was passed back ' to Relnhardt and he made a punt almost half the length of the field. Ristine attempted to stop the ball, but fumbled it, and before it had stopped rolling and been put in play it was within two yards of the Wabash goal line, and was held there. Wabash attempted to punt the ball, but Ristine was crowded and Lister caught the ball square in the breast as he broke through the line. He clutched the ball, rolled over the goal line, and then Jumped to his feet and placed the ball down directly behind the posts. Relnhardt easily kicked goal. Score: Butler, 6; Wabash. C' On the second kick-off Kinkey' Freeman caught the ball on the thirty-yard line and carried it back ten yarJs before he was brought to the ground. On the next play Stevenson again fumbled and the ball went to Wabash. Then followed a series of line rushes. Reed carrving the ball through Clvmer and Loop for continual gains. The left end of the line proved to be a good thing, and Cantain Sullivan evidently believed In "pushing it alonsr." -for he kept his backs hitting it until the ball was on Butler's fifteen-yard line. Then, for offside play, Wabash was given half the distance to the goal. There the Butler msn took a brace and held the line for four downs, and were given the bnll. It was a sore disappointment to the Wabash men to get fo near and yet sc far. After a fumble by Sievenson the Kail went ' to Lister twice In succession, and twenty yards were gained. Obom and Baker carried it fifteen more. Butler was playing her tandem wedge to prefection, and was making continued gains when the ball was aoraln fumbled and secured by Wabash. Then Rlstlne began his work, and for thirty yards he carried the ball almost alone, making five yards each time he started. Demaree and Ashman would make a hole in the line through Looo and Clymer and Rlstlne with.vthe ball clutched tightly in his arms would shoot through the opening and over the bodies of the other plavers, wriggle along over the ground and cry down five yards away. But Captain Sullivan worked the play too much, and Butler finally barked up the weak fpot and secured the ball on downs. After a couple of five-yard gains by Lister Thompson took the ball and carried It twenty yards around the left end. Baker followed this with another run around the right for twenty-five yards. There Baker lay unconscious for several minutes, but pluckily resumed the play. . On the next two plays tan yards were lost, and then Wabash took the ball on another wretched fumble. They had advanced ten yards when Butler held them down to four downs, but again Stevenson fumbled and gave up the ball before an advance had been made. Farrell and Ashman carried tho ball twenty yards, and Rlstlne. by his line Jumping, placed the ball on Butler's five-yard line. Pattison was given the ball, and quickly placed it over the goal line. But the umpire would not allow the advance on account of foul play by Farrell, who waa holding his man tn locked arms. The ball was replaced on tho five-yard line and given to Butler. This was an unfortunate happening, to say the least, for it discouraged the Wabash players and r.ncered their supporters. On the first line up the ball was parsed to Lister and with excellent Interferrnce. he rped down the field r-st all the Wc!rash r'n rr.J wcr net etc-; rd ur.til ha had v. . i..,--. ; j 'Z3

beautiflly tackled by Ristine. Parker made a gain and Relnhardt punted forty yards, Rlstlne again failing to secure the ball as promptly as he should. Clouser fped around rtgnt end for twenty yards and RiFtine carried the ball five yards. Clouser had his leg twisted in this play and for some time play was stopped. But bo finally recovered sufficiently to enter the game, and taking the ball, started to go round the eft end. As he was tackled he dropped the ball and Lister, as usual belntf at the right point, caught it up and i mails a twenty-five-yard run. But it was of no avail for Stevenron again fumbled and Wabash took the ball. Ristine punted ! twenty yards and Builer had started forward with the tandem play when time was called. Score Butler, 6; Wabash, 0. THE SECOND' HALF. At the beginning of the second half, Relnhardt kicked the ball over the Wabash goal line with the wind against him. The hall was then brought back to the twenty--flve-yard line In Wabash's possession. Ristine punted, and Butler carried the ball twenty-five yards In a few plays. Wabash secured the ball on downs on their twentyyard line, and from there carried it the entire length of the field with short lino rushes. There, was no gain of more than fifteen yards, but there was no cessation in the advance. Thus Pattison was forced over the line the second time. Sullivan made the mistake of not having , his men punt out for a fair catch, as the ball was ! too far to one side, and Histine was unable to kick goal. Score Butler, 6; Wabash, 4. At this Junctuo of tho game Stet Parker was substituted for Clymer, of the Butler team, who had been worn out by the constant assaults on hlx part of the line. Shortly afterwards Clouser was injured and Williams substituted. After, the kick off by Hutler. the ball was carried back into Butler territory, where it was fumbled and secured by Lister. Ketnhardt made a, long punt out of bounds, and the players went pell mell throught the crowd and ever tne wire fence after it. Ed Parker fell on it making a large gain for Butler. Shortly afterward Relnhardt made another long punt, and again the ball i went out of bounds. This time It was se- i cured by Ristine, of Wabash, and then the trip down the field was again begun. Baker was hurt shortly afterwards and J Cunningham substituted. Williams made a j series of brilliant runs for Wabash, advancing the ball to Butler's fifteen-yard line. There the Butler men braced up and held their opponents for three downs without gain. Captain Sullivan called out a signal. The ball was passed back, and Reed j started around toward the right end with it. But suddenly he passed It to Williams, and while the Butler players were running to tackle Reed. Williams ran around the other end and placed the ball behind the goal without molestation. It was the winning touchdown. Ristine easily kicked goal. Score. Wabash 10.' Butler. 6, There was only a ,f ew, minutes left for play, but the Butler men went at it with vigor. Relnhardt kicked off thirty yards, and the ball was caught by Williams, who returned It fifteen before he was downed. ; Another gain placed the ball in the middle of tho field. Just as time was called. Final score: Wabash 10, Butler 6. Manager Culbertson, of-Butler., stated last night that he had engaged Felix, now of the University of Chicago formerly a Princeton "Tiger," to assist coacher Flint for a week. Felix Is to coach the line and' Flint the backs. By this means the team will probably be put "In condition to win, and another game will be arranged with Wabash. - . . . The Team Mill Alive.

XRW III LCS TRIED. Xo SlaarKlnfC or Brutality One-Sided in Favor of Harvard. CAMBRIDGE. Mass.) Oct. 26. Overwhelmed, broken and shattered, but fighting desperately to the last, Cornell went down before tho heavier and - stronger Harvard eleven this afternoon by a score of 25 to 0. Cornell was badly defeated, but she made a game fight and played pluckily from start to finish. It was a clean game, without slugging or brutality, and the new rules, on their first real trial of the year, worked like a charm. Cornell played - Harvard to a deadlock in the first half but the pace was too hot for her to maintain, and in the second half Harvard played with twice the dash and vigor, while Cornell weakened and showed that Harvard's constant hammering at the line was too much for her to stand up against. Six thousand people were gathered around the gridiron. Cornell's famous old kicking full back, Billy Ohl, was sorely missed, for the contest was distinctly a kicking game, and the visitors inferiority at this point and especially in receiving Brewer's long punts, was much against her. Jn the second half the Ithaca boys could not withstand the repeated onslaught of the. Crimson backs, and Brewer, 'Fairchild, Cabot and Gonterman went plowing . through tackle and center with telling effect. Harvard scored all her points in tne second half four touchdowns, from which only two goals were kicked, and a splendid goal from the field. Harvard lost many points throughout the match by offside playing and holding in the line, and there were not many .praiseworthy points in her general play.. Brewer's minting was fine and the visitors always lost on an exchange of kicks. It was the indomitable endurance and the dogged aggressive work which gave her the game. Her Interference in tho. first half was lamentably weak, but her defense was good all through the game. Stevenson was the weakest point In the Harvard line. Cabot was the star in the line, however, and the way he ran with the Interference was wonderful. Captain Wyckoff made some telling tackles for Cornell. Behind the line Beacham was the best. The first half ended with the ball in the center of the field. The second half opened with the ball in Cornell's hands. Brewer returned Young's kick and Cabot got the ball into center on Cornell's fumble. Harvard got the ball and by short rushes worked it to Cornell's line, Falrchild was pushed over for a touchdown. He kicked a goal. Gonterman made a sensational run of fifty yards from a fake kick, making a touchdown. Falrchild missed the goal. Cabot scored the next touchdown. Falrchild failed at goal. Brewer scored - Harvard's fourth touchdown. Then he kicked a goal. C. Brewer kicked a goal from the thlrty-five-yarxt line Just before time was called. They lined up as follows: Harvard. Position.

well. Her Interference on the offensive, however, was badly broken up. For Yale, Chadwick. Jerrems and Benjamin put up a star game, and Anthony Curtis, and Burt Waters did the best work for Boston.

Ahont Manager AVnf klnsA Promising Pennsylvania Player. It is pretty safe to predict that manager Watkins will either be in charge of the Indianapolis team next season or of a National League club not far from here. Indianapolis don't want to lose "Watty." and will not if it can be helped. A popular vote on the matter would resujt unanimously in favor of his retention here. He is the best manager by .far an Indianapolis ball team ever had. Among claims filed for players is one by Indianapolis for the services of Monroe, a Newcastle, Pa., pitcher, who twice won the championship for that city in the Iron and Oil League. He is said to be a wonder, and in games against Boston and Pittsburg, the big clubs had all they could do to win. They , could do little with Monroe, six or seven hits a game being about the total each time. Connie Mack .tried to secure him for Pittsburg, but Monroe wants a season in the Western or Eastern League before entering the National League ranks and therefore refused Mack's offers. Pittsburg judges who have seen him pitch pronounce him a "comer." Indianapolis has not yet pucceeded in signing him. but the claim filed gives them fir3t chance at him. Bert Dasher, who - is in San Francisco ahead of Hoyt'3 "A Contented Woman." writes that the Western League clubs out there have made a great hit and are playing to big business. Chauneey Fisher is pitching for one of them,-having Just arrived on the coast. His broken finger has entirely healed. The Halc-Schuiuaoher Match. Peter Schumacher, who is to meet Herb Halo on the mat at English's Opera House to-morrow night, says he never was in finer condition for wrestling than now. He has the most supreme confidence in his ability to throw the Indianapolis man, and declares that the latter' s victory over him last year was merely an accident. Schumacher, while considerably older . than Hale, is quicker in his movements on the mat and fully as strong. The match should be a hat one. Hale and his friends do not appear to be worried over the outcome, which they predict will be the same as when the two men met before. The match will begin at 8:30 to-morrow night. LATEST OCEAN GREYHOUND. Fast Time by the St. Paul from Southampton to New York. NEW YORK, Oct. 2C The new Anchor line steamer St. Paul, Captain Jamison, dropped anchor in quarantine at 2:44 o'clock this morning, having made her maiden voyage from Southampton to this port in the remarkably fa9t time of six days, seventeen hours and fifty-one minutes. Had it not been for the fact that the port engine was shopped on the 23d for twenty-one hours, owing to a defective air pump, the St. Paul would no doubt have broken all previous records from Southampton. This Is all the more apparent from the fact that one day's run ho wed the splendid average speed of nearly twenty-one and one-half knots for twenty-four hours. The St. Paul passed the Needles at 1:36 p. m. Saturday night and arrived at Sandy Hook llghtsmp at 2:27 o'clock this morning, covering a total distance of 3.051 knots. Easterly winds, with confused swells prevailed during the moot of the passage. Passengers were most enthusiastic over the steadiness and line seaRoing qualities of the St. Paul. A noticeable fact was the almost entire absence of r.ny vibration of the ship's engines. Very few of the saloon passengers were even aware of the stoppage of the port engine on the &d instant, while repairs were being made to the damaged air pump. Crul of the Aherfoyle. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 2.-The British ship Aberfoyle, Captain Wallace, has. arrived In port seveaty-four day from Newcastle, X. S. W., with a cargo of coal. Early this year the Aberfoyle sailed frcm FrederV:kstadt for Newcastle, arriving at the laiter port after a most thrilling voyage. Captain George M. Robertson was then In command of the ehip. She Was only out a few days when the rtaster began drinking and wound up with a big spree. He waa totally unfit for handling the vessel, and. shutting himself up In h! cabin, he res!med the command temporarily to first olUcer Percy Norton. In a severe storm mate Norton was washed overboard and the Aberfoyle waa tef t to the mercy af the elements without a pilot to stef r her through her peril.
