The ftooigDere ia thooo oaaoa point with pardonable pride to the UMguifieoftt enoeeaeof their worn, and perhape quite aatarally are inellnnd to doubt the eflicieney ot any low coetlv and eowpltouted work in laying tbo •ub-foundattone of rach a otruoturo aa the
Boidiera’ Moon moot to to be.
It may bo of latoroet to give ia aome detail the method adopted to aeeure a eoiid bate on whieb to ereet the mamive tower of the new Caton Station. The preliminary exeavatioa was oarriod down to the water lino, some oigbtooa foot. At this point tbo bottom waa ia * bod of pure gravel, which to regarded as an exeeilent material on wbieh to bni'd. The artificial work waa begun by laying down a thick bed of concrete. On this was placed a layer of stool railroad rails as compactly as powibie. Then followed another bod of eonoroto and more rails lying in tbo oppoeite direction irons thooo in the first layer. In this manner n base eevoral foot ia thickness waa formed, perfectly bomogeaeons, except tor the layers of rails.- On the level surface thus produced the foundation stones, the first of which were very large, were laid. By these extensive precautions it to hoped to prevent the tower from aettiing nay more than do the walls ot the SUtion, as any inequality in the amount of settlement of the two would eanae the masonry to craek. In possession of this ioformation in regard to the essentials to succsssfnl ersetion of loity structurss in Indianapolis, the rsprsssatatlve of The News celled on Secretary Gooklns, of the monument committee. Ha wee surprised to bear the uatovorable comment on tbeir designs, aad rapliad that nothing bad besn done witbont the most ssrious oonsidsraUoa. The Court Hoase and tbs Passenger Station,
be eatd, are so aneb nearer to Pogaeto Ban that the cionnd on which they are built is net as firm aa it to where the moanmeat to tebe. Exactly the same quality of gravel which, injeasc of the former struetnres, was found only at tbs water line in Circle Park was fonud immediately below the sur Case. Bo stable was tbs character of tbs ground, indeed, that a preliminary layer of eonerste was scarcely deemed necessary, though it was laid to provide a plans face on whieb to place the first coarse of stone. D. M. Banedsll, of tbo monument committee, was interviewed on Ms same matter and laughed at the idea of the foundation proving insufficient. “We can not aflord to make any eoatly arrors in this,” ha acid, “end have token every step with great precaution. General T. A. Morris, who is an expert engineer, has ealcuiated that the foundation will be thoroughly safe in avery particular, aad several local architects, who have been asked to give the question their attention, have seconded hie judgment But Frederick Baumann, the arohltnot ia char ,s ot the work ia the abeoenoe of Mr. Sohmitx, has Inst arrived ia the city; perhaps yon might Accordingly Mr. Bauman was found, and when told what waa the cause ot the call, laugbad heartily at it “Why," he said, “the monument to to have a magnificent fenndation. The earth eonid not be more ■olid if we went down sixty first with onr excavation. The bed of gravel to n splendid one. 1 have jnst returned from an Eastern trip, lu which I have examined the foundations ol the piere of the great Poughkeepsie bridge and the tower of the city building which Philadelphia to erecting, and the Washington Monament. The Philadelphia building to to na 637 feet aad the monument to 556 feet high. I found the gravel beds on wbieh these structures rest broken by freq sent beds of elay and loam, which are bound to have aweakebinx effect, and yet no fear to expromed that the tower* are not sale. There are no each flaws in the gravel under-
lying this city.
“Then there to another feature of the case which the critics Hem to overlook. The Iraodatien of the Boidiera’ Monument is vsry bread, and the weight will be distributed in inch a manner as to rest equally on all parts •fit. Though the shaft will I* extremely heavy, ita preeaure on any single square foot if tbs fouudation will be comparatively tmail—about four toas. Tbs Washington llouument rests oa its base with a pressure of alnC tons to each foot of surlacs. Coming back boms again, tbs weight of tbs tower ot tbs new Union Station is much greater on nch surlacs foot of tha foundation than will that of tbs Soldiers’ Monument be. This seems strange at first thought, but it must be remembered that the base of the tower to Maroeiy broader than the towar itaali. “Thera to sot a shadow of uncertainty In ibis matter. The monument will rest upon a base wbieh will be as thoroughly stable and durable aa ita beat friends could desire. Few cities in the country furnish as good locations for high structures as Indianapolis.” In justice to Mr. Bodd, while the rumor of the unstabUity of the base purported to have come from him, pet a determined effort by The News reporter to find him wns nnsucosesful, aad beuoe the opinion credited to him to not secured from him iu person, and
it may do him an injustice.

It wns also stated that the battery contemplated disbanding because several younger organizations were coming into prominence. No one in authority entertains snch an idea, for the battery fears neither young nor old. bat it stands ready, as it has always dons, to meat nil oomsrs in ths annual contests. There were also statemanta that the battery was looking for building gmmtd, wns about to occupy the Virginia Avenue Bink, had been invited to Anderson for the Fourth, and bad organised a ball team, all of whien is nsws to tbe organisation. With raference to looking for building ground, it may be said that tbe battery ana Company A hold a lease oa the College avenue sit*. Borne opposition exists to rebuilding there, and while it is not the d«eire to be compelled to meet such opposition, it is expected that the oitisens will be reanonabic enough to see that the organization must have a home, and that it oan not yield thwadvantage obtained by procuring grounds at favorable Terms, when real estate was a drag on the market, without reasonable compensatioD. Probably a good plan would be for the citizens to assist in building a structure which would be an ornament to the community.

He saw tbe club in the East, but only for a few minutes, and waa surprisad, on ranching here, to find variooa rumors in circulation about the players and management, which he knows arc not trne. In the first place, ha says that thare navar has been the slightest intention or thought of removing Manager Spence, who to doing better with the club than any other manager ever did, and is giving excellent satisfaction. The stories about dissipation among the players are likewise unfounded. That about them drinking and causing trouble on the train at Xenia,a O., on tbeir way East, either is a plain lie, or the story had reference to some other club. The men have not been drinking in New York and Philadelphia as reported, and they have- besn playing good ball. “We bad sixteen errors in one game in New York,” says Mr. Brush, “and a good many people at onoe jumped to the conclusion that something was wrong, but they did not stop to consider that elaveu of these were battery errors, bases on balls aad such, which any club is liable to have. I can see nothing to find fault with on this trip when you stop to consider how onr pitchers are disabled. This is the most successful trip the Indianapolis Club has aver had. It baa won seven games sod lost ten, with ill luck against ii, and I think we are playing very good bull under the circumstances. We have 10U games yet to play, and whan we gat in good condition all around we will win our share of them.” “There is another thing,” said Mr. Bruah, “I want to speak about. When the club was here various stories came to our ears about certain players drinking. We went to a great deal of trouble to run them down, and found out tbe truth. Apparently reliable men told them, but in every case we found out that they were uot true, with one exception, and that was the case of one player who dr&ok two glassea of beer one night, and acknowledged it when we naked him. My own opinion is that there are only two men in the team who drink anything, and they only occasionally and very little then. Possibly one of them baa hurt his playing in one or two games by drinking tome tbe night before. 1 do not know that this is true, but suspect it.” “How about Esterbrook?” asked the re-
porter.
“Thera is an instance,” aaid Mr. Brush. “Esterbrook has been reported to us as having been drinking, when the fact is that he hasn't taken a drink this year, and not before that I know of. There were good reasons for laying him off, one of which was that we needed Shomberg’s batting badly. Ail we want for the club is fair treatment by tbe paper* and people. The boys want to win as badly as we do, and they are doing their best.” Anson’s sensible Views. In an interview in the Boston Herald, Anson, of the Chicagoes, says he does not fear the New York Club, because it has too many cliques in it, and he thinks they will not finish better than fourth. Regarding some of the other elubs he expressed this opinion: “Pittsburg will probably not get any higher than at present, with the chances strongly in favor ol going lower. Washington does not appear to be any stronger than last season. They have a good man in Whitney, better than they have in O’Day. That Indianapolia team to a dandy. 1 believe I could take those men and jnst about win the championship. No team wants to go to fooling when it runs against those fellows.” Anson gives tbe following account of his method with hto own club. Well, I have exercised my best judgment in selecting players, and have succeeded iu getting good oues. Then i believe in dealing fairly aud justly toward them all. 1 have no favorites. If one man does anything to deserve credit lye gets it as readily oa any other man, and the blow fulls alike on all offender* again*! discipline or the rule* of the cinb. If a naw player joins ua, I put him through a course of practice and instruction, ana very soon find eut what heisntdaal The old m*n take hold and help the new one along, and he is made to feel that ha ia one of ua aud is just as important a factor in winning a game aa any one. He thu* attains confidence in himaelf and he know* hi* effort* will be anpreeiated. There ara no clk/ios ia tha Chicago team; they u onld net be tolerated for a moment.” AReadar, City—The addreas of the editor of tha Sporting Liia ia F. A. Richter, Philadelphia, Pa.

That indispensable article ot domestic economy, baking powder, promises now to become sa cheap as the wind that blows, owing to a novel commercial conflict that Is arising.

Truth
Out
Therein lies the secret of the marvelous success of PYLE’S PEARLINE Washing Compound. Those who use it like it, and tell their friends. Over one million families now use it The sale increases—each month shows decided gains. Do you know the truth? pearline washes clothes, coarse or fine—dishes—paint—everything—in half the time, with half the labor, and better than anything else known. As it saves the worst of the rubbing, so it saves the worst of the wear; your clothes and paint last longer and look better, if washed with PEARLINE. Harmless to fabric or hands, and economical There is nothing else like PEARLINE. Beware of imitations being peddled or sold by means of prizes—they are dangerous—such means are not necessary to sell a good article. Pexrline is manufactured only by JAMES PYLE, New York.
