THE REDS VICTORIOUS.
The Last Game Won by Ihe Reds by
score of 22-1O.

n score of 22-IO.
The last game was played yesterday
on the North Knoxville grounds, in the
presence of an immense crowd. The
excitement and interest ran high, and
when it became a foregone conclusion
that the Reds must win, the cheering
from their friends became deafening.
From the very first, it was easy to
perceive that the cadets were deter
mined to wipe out last Saturdays de-
feat, but the Knoxvilles were just as
determined that it should be repeated.
The first inning was almost Water
loo for the boys of the ensanguined
stockings, and their hackers drew sew
eral long breaths along there. In the
second inning, though, by a white
wash of their opponents, they put
things in better shape.
The Knoxvilles played pluckily and
| we'll. Their club is a strong one, and
when they shall have replaced some
two or three of their players With bet
ter ones they will be hard men to han
die. Their pitcher, catcher and first
baseman are all new men in their po-
sitions, but show what they could do
with practice. Reeder on the second
and Douglass on the third are also
tough customers. It is very seldom
that base ball club improves as fast as
this one has done.
On the side of the Reds, Condor and
Lloyd divided the honors. "Shorty"
was in fine trim, and pitched for all he
was worth, also, he did some of the
safest batting ever seen around here.
Condor covered the third splendidly,
after he had ma Q one or two wild
throws, and at the bat did nobly. He
made five runs and one out, and his
home run was the event of the game.
Snsed, having never played on the
grounds before, and consequently in his
fielding until he became used to them,
made few errors. He will be big
help to the boys, as big as any one.
Hunt was also himself again and never |
played better in his life. Fuller dis
tinguished himself by playing a game |
free from errors.
The following is the score as fur.
nished Us by Mr.. Newman, the scorer |
of the Reds:

FOREIGN NEWS.

LONDON, June 16.-The Times
financial article, referring to the
condition of the money market,
says: Difficulties are still appre-
hended in the provinces and some
very heavy failures would probably
have occurred before now but for
the fact that the provincial banks
interested prefer to help their Gus
toners for the time being, rather
than let it be thought that
they have made any losses
what would in ordinary
circumstances have been by help
afforded been, in some instances,
turned into a kind of forced private
liquidation. All this is well known
in the city and makes money lend
ers more active and cautious than
ever. A real revival Of trade
and a brisk demand for money
would probably reveal enough weak~
ness or insolvency in several quar-
ters to amply justify the caution
exercised.
The contest for the long distance
Of the world belt
began at Agricultural Hall this
The scores at half past

THE Tribune appears to doubt our
statement made few days ago that
the Republican party in Tennessee has
always been sound on the State debt
question, and says some Republicans
have not been. There may have been
few Republicans in the State who
were not sound on the question, but
the party was in no way responsible
for their unsoundness, besides there
has not been a ooporars guard of
them.

PECK MATTERS.

William Hardy has again assumed the Superintendency of the Peck M lining Co. rice F. w Blake resigned. Blake sent in his resignation some time before tne late trouble commenced, and urged its accept ance on the ground that other business de- manded his time and attention, but WAS in- duced to continue in the position until re- gently, when he renewed his resignation, which was reluctantly accepted by the Board of Trustees. Mr. Hardy was finally prevailed upon to accept the important trust and return 10 duty in Arizona. He has noN gone 10 Alexandra for the pur- pose of taking possession of the property under Judge Porter's order. F. w. Blake still remains agent for the Company Ut Prescott, and, as soon as the works start up. wIll resume the shipment Of bullion, draw ing of cheeks, payment oftht men, etc. etc. In the mean time the company, it's Super intendent and agent invite she most rigid scrutiny into the conduct of its affairs by any stockholoer or stockholders, and gre ready to answer fully according to law and justice for any short comings that can be shown.
 Mr. Pcck having brought his action against the Peck Mining Company in Mari. copa courty, owing to the absence of Judge Silenr from the Terri ory, Judge Porter made an order appointing Hezekian Brooks Receiver of the property of the company Judge Brooks beng In possession, claiming to act as Receiver, the company, acting through Mir. Blake as its agent, commenced tn action 10 restrain Judge Brooks and others from working the mine, alleging among other things that the pillars of the mine were being worked out thereby rem der'ng ike mine liable to cave. Mess s. Churchill and Masterson as attorneys for fhe Receiver, went outto the nine on Thurs day to take affidavits to be used on the mo- ton for sn injunction, returning on Satur- day evening, they heard that Judge Porter had, without notice to them. vacated the order appointing Judge Brooks Al first they doubted the correctness of the repott, but yesterday certified copy was produced and shown them.
 Under these circumstances they immedi- aiely wrote to Judge Brooks advising him to turn the property to Mr. Hardy. or who- ever was authorized to act for the company
 It speaks well for he coolness and firm. ness of the men composing the force on each side that no violence has been used and no breach of rhc peace has been committed du- ring all those excit ng days; and now when Judge Porter has so ordered the party, who nave held armed possession, quietly with draw without a word of complaint or con. tention, aud the other party as quietly en. ter.
 As yet, however, no important question concerning the rights oi the parties, ha. been passed upon; but only the question as to who shall hold possession pending the controversy.
 The Case before Commis sioner Hsrgravt has no more importance now, and the oth, CT case before Judge Porter is left to drag it's way slowly through the Court.

E P. Clark has re turned from Phenix where he succeeded in selling several large bills of lumber. He found the farm CTS all busy harvesting their large crops Of barley and wheat. Hayden's Flouring Mill had commenced the manufacture of flour from new wheat raised by the Indians. He met ou. former neighbor, Vim. Isaac, who has made himself, in the bosom of the fer tile Valley of the Salinas, comfortable home. It is no trick to make fine home in the Salt River Valley where there is little energy displayed. Some of lhe eld bar room farmers who went to Phenix, however, when it was in its infancy, are worse of than when they first took advantage and availed themselves of Uncle Sam's donation of 16O acres of the public domain.
