Diamond Cut DIamend-No Game Be-
tween the Atlantics and Athleiies-The
Reason Why

Diamond Cut DlamoAd-No Game Be.
tween the Atlantics and Athle,ies-The
Reason Why.
The ome and home game between the Ath-
letics, of Philadelphia, and the Atlantics, OF
Brooklyn, for the champions ship, was set down
M tor Monday on the Union G grounds, 9d1 Williams
sons. 1t seems that after the Atlanr,cs had
won game of the present series, making the
TWO clubs stand one each, the Atiantics lnfor-
maliy notified the Athletics that, as threa of
their first nine were disabled, viz: Smith.
Start and Mills, IL would be impossible for
thtm 10 play as agreed upon. In addition to
phia last Friday that il would be impossible
to play the game as agreed upon. The Ath.
let,cs replied that they had purchased their
tickets and made arrangements to come, and
they intepd ded to come, and they expected the
Athletics to play them according to agreement.
So the Athletics came and appeared prompt
~ on the ground Monday ready toplay. The
crippled state OF the Auantics was again rep
resented to them in vain. They would hear
nothing but the letter of the bond. They were
offered the amount Of their expenses to defer
the tSsg ssy
they got it. The Atlantics finally agreed to
play, but they took good care to let the Athle-
tics know that the nine selected to play them,
though consisting OF members OF the Atlantic
Club, would comprise heretofore unknown
names. In short, the fat, the halt and the blind
OF he club, that the Athletics might play them
if they chose, and they would probably make
hundred runs in the first inning, as it was
tat all likely the Atlantic mullins could ever
get them out. The result would be the game
wonld be delayed, 80 that five innings could
not be played before dark, and postponement
would be forced.
The Athletics were therefore, caughtin their
own trap. They found that some people could
play technical points as we'll as others. They
could not demand the champion bali as the
Atlantics had not refused to play them. They
had nothing TO do but to return to Philadelphia
and bide The time. They refused to name a
day for the next game, insisting that the At
1ant1cs should go to Philadelphia to play 1t,
and so the matter stands undecided, and proba.
bly, will remain so until next season unless
the feeling between the two clubs changes
wonderfully in q very short time ". Y. World.

ter to the New York Herald. dated at Repulse
Bay, August Is, gives an account of visit to
Captain Hall, the Arctic explorer, whose
quarters have not been changed since last
winter. The writer says:
'sSome information he got last winter from
the natives he fell IN with made him decide on
wintering there this winter. They told shius
that some white men had been with them for g.
long time, and one OF them died and they
buried him with great care. Captain Hall
thinks that 1t might be Sir John franklin and
has determined to try and reach the country
and see for himself, SO he offered among the
whaling fleet five hundred dollars in gold per
man for five men to 60 with him. The men,
having wintered, did not wish to stay, but at
last five good, strong men have Joined, and
when they are done hunting this fall they will
start. Coptain Hall is sure OF obtaining some
