THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS MATCH.
An Authentic Account OF she Great
suit as Eureka.

An Authentic OF tne Urehi
suit nj Eureka.
From the Carson Appeal.
The big suit between the Richmond and
Albion mining companies Is attracting
more attention just at present in Califor'
mia and Nevada than the condition Of Pres.
ident Garfield. The telegraphic reports
which come from Eureka and the accounts
in the daily papers simply puzzle the av-
erage reader to such an extent that after Q
careful perusal of them q man is considered
quite lucky il he ia able to tell what stock
he owns. There are also two baseball clubs
in Eureka. named respectively Richmond
and Albion, and they never play . match
that the score does not in some unaccount-
able way get mixed up with the report OF
the trial, and SO the situation becomes
more and more puzzliDg. On Monday last
the Appeal sent q very reliable gentleman
to Eureka with instructions to forward by
telegraph fair and correct report Of the
proceedings. The following is given, not
as a matter Of news, but as a sample OF his
work. From q few perusals ther reader will
at once soc that he must have first attend
ed the baseball match, got drunk and at
tended the trial before he sent the dispatch:
Special to the Appeal.
EUREKA, July 12.-The big suit between
the Richmond and Albion opened to-day
to q crowded audience. The Albion won
the toss and sent Billy Woods to the bat,
who on taking his stand called for . low
ball, and Tom Wren sent in q red-hot st.
George patent, which Woods sent to center
field with an Uncle Sam lick and made his
first base. Stewart then did some heavy
batting with the Rose location, and coun-
selor Cheney muffed a o n pro tune on
the left field. The Richmond then took
the bat, with Baker and Wines alternating
as pitchers. Baker did some very lively
work bowling with the Uncle Sam twist,
and the Albion hackers we're in good spir-
its as the Richmond went out with but
two runs. The Richmond batting in the
jury innings was very weak. A hot liner
from Stewart in the shape Of an interven-
ton to the st. Georges location struck
Tom Wren in the jaw, but he did consid-
erable good fielding after that, and an at
tempt to quiet his title to the home base
was a failure. At the present writing the
game is progressing at such a lively rate
that Umpire Rives has to watch things
pretty close to keep the run of the innings.
The Albions are so far ahead that unless
there is some wild over-throwing they will
win the game by five or six runs.
