A GOOD GAME.
The Our Boys Win Clean Game Yes
t0rday.

Yesterday afternoon Our Boys and the
Houston nine Of South Chester indulged in
contest at the Union street grounds, In
which the home club was victorious, after a
good game. Their playing was fine, and
showed what they could do when attending
to business. The visitors, who are said to
play strong game, were lacking yesterday
in many essential ways. Both sides did
weak batting. Mr.. McCartey, the umpire,
while perfectly impartial and conscientious
In his rulings, was undoubtedly lacking In
thorough understanding Of the rules of the
national pastime, which have been reduced
TO the fineness of an intricate science. At
the very start his decisions were challenged
and in two or three instances he reversed
his decisions.
A fly catch by Higgins at third, direct
from Culp's bat double play ol Our Doys,
by which men were put out at first and
second base q two-base hit by Dix, by
which he scored the first run for the visitors,

Pennsylvania Republicans in Conferences.

Pennsylvania Republicans In COnferonoo.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 12.-There was an
other conference at John Welsh's Office to-
day. The same men who were present at
Yesterdays conference were there to-day,
with the addition Of John Wanamaker.
The lips of those who participated
are tightly sealed. Although they
say that nothing was done. Chairman
Cooper of the Stalwart committee declares
that If the conferees are working for COM
promise which would call for the with
drawal of Beaver, their efforts are entirely
unauthorized. Chairman Mckee Of the In
dependent committee says that II the con-
ferees are seeking a compromise which
includes the withdrawal of Stewart
their actions are without authority. Mr..
Cooper declares emphatically that Beaver
cannot be and will not be withdrawn. Thia
would not appear to indicate that the three
| cornered contest will continue, TO end only
on election day. Although no one at the
conference would open his mouth, 1t was
stated as fact in political quarters that the
conference had decided not to issue pro-
| posed open letter to the candidates
asking them to withdraw from the con-
| test In favor of more universally aceeptablo
| person, aud that no further efforts would be
made in the matter. This was said TO be
partly influenced by the fact that 90 few
| business men had enlisted in the movement,
but more especially by the unsympathetic
attitude assumed by the chairman OF the
Stalwart and Independent State Committees.

KssSE ON CORNERS.

Mr.. James Keene has been telling a com.
mittee what he knows about corners. 1t
was to have been expected that he should
regard that class of operations with in.
dulgence, though it is somewhat nurpris.
ing to hear from him that he has never
been engaged in corner himself. Yet
though the evidence of gambler in regard
to the evil of gambling is perhaps of little
comparative value, it must be admitted
that there is some truth in Mr.. keene's
statements. 1t is not indeed correct to
say that corners never do any harm, be.
cause, as he himself was obliged to &C.
knowledge, corner in coal may produce
great deal Of suffering. But for the most
part those who bear the losses n these
transactions are the people who 1--we by
speculation, and it is questionable whether
there have been many corners of late years
which have not been disastrous to at least
some of those who got them up. It is in
fact so impossible to control the market for
any length of time on any great staple that
whoever attempts it is pretty sure to be
made to smart for his temerity in the end.
The spectators who arrange corners, how
ever, are certainly not public benefsctors,
and in fact the class Of Spectators y no dc
nothing else than speculate is always more
harm than good to a country, and does not
as Mr.. Keene alleges, do anything to heil
legitimate commerce.

TEE BOY ROBBERS.

The two boys recently convicted OF rob-
bing a Chinamsn near Marysville appear to
have been led more by thoughtlessness
than vice to the commission of the offense.
Il is however instructive to observe that
their peculiarly California education had
caused them to look upon the Chinese as
somehow a fair prey, and that they seem
to have thought that it could not much
matter what they did to member of that
hated and despised race. O1e of them
supposed they were going to have stun "
with the Chinamau by stoning him, since
that was the way the San Francisco boys
had "fun" with Cinnamon. Its however
undoubtedly good sign that the Law was
permitted to take its course in this case,
and the fact may st least be commended
to the attention of those Eastern brethren
who believe that there is no justice TO be
had for the Chinese on the Pacific coast.
A few years ago we are afraid this was
almost true, but we appear to be slowly
improving in that particular.

RUSSIA AND GERMANY.

Though the journalistic representations
of the relations between Germany and
Russia are 40 doubt largely exaggerated,
there are none the less indications which
point to danger OF a rupture in the near
future. 1t appears to be fact that the
Russian Government has oeen for some
time past building railroads the sole pur.
pose of which, 60 far as can be perceived,
is the facilitation OF the movement OF
troops to the frontier. This kind of gov.
ernment work may of course be ascribed to
. general desire to guard against future
dangers, but since it has been brought to
notice only since the ratification of the of.
fensive and defensive alliance between
Austria and Germany, the presumption is
that it means more than that. 1t is also to
be noted that Bismarck is permitting his
organs to attack Russia. Now this is Ger.
tainly not without purpose, and it recalls
the preliminsries of the war with France
in 1870. What must be regarded as GER.
tain is that Bismarck unless he is abso.
lutely withheld by the Emperor, whose
personal friendship for the Gar is embar.
RAISING to the Chaucellorl, will not allow
Russia to choose her own time for rupture.
His method has always been to select his
own opportunities, and if there is to be
war with Russia it will be when he is
ready for it, and not when the Russian
Government desires it. And it is equally
clear that such war is unavoidable, how
ever often it may be postponed. The race
hatred between Teuton and S,av would
bring it on even if there were no other IN
centives. The old Emperor William would
doubtless prefer to live out his life in peace
now, but in cases of this kind Statesmen
and rulers are the sport of circumstances,
and if it is realized at Berlin that Russia is
preparing for war, there will be nothing
for it but to meet her half way.

that " crimes of the most revolving charac.
ter have occurred :" in the school, and it
is shown that these crimes are the direct
consequences of herding together mum.
ber Of vicious boys without any real super.
vision. The Grand Jury refers to the ag-
ricultural colony at Mettray in France. as
showing what can be done but there is as
much difference between Mettray and the
San Francisco Industrial School as between
one of the lszarettos which John Howard
exposed, and modern reformatory prison.
o. course it does not follow that the
French system could not be copied
in this State; but before 30 much
as beginning of reform is possible it will
be necessary to find means of securing
proper officials, and of preventing inter-
ference with them by the potbouse politi.
clans after they have been appointed. The
House Of Correction at San Francisco is
not as bad as the Industrial School, but it
is equally useless as reformatory institu.
tion, according to the Grand Jury, and in
fact it is mere place Of detention, in
which no attempt whatever is made to i'm.
prove the inmates. The condition of these
two institutions is undoubtedly discredita-
bic both to San Francisco and to the State.
Nor is it possible to apply reformatory
methods at San Qaentin or Folsom with
any hope of success, as long as the feeders
to those prisons are allowed to remain in
their present state. If penal reform is to
be introduced anywhere, il must be applied
under system embracing every prison in
the State. This was pointed out in the re-
port of the Special Prison Commission last
year, and it will remain true always. We
cannot hope for nor expect penal reform
until we are intelligent enough to apply it
everywhere, and to bar politicians out
from all participation in prison manage.
