and Defeat the WOuld.be Cham.

piOns.
The Quickstep played another game
with the Brooklyn yesterday and sue
ceeded in defeating them for the first
time out of the last nine games played.
The defeat was mainly due to the
miserable catching of West, late of the
Staten Island club.
Terry and West, and Pyle and Cusick
were the opposing batteries, and with
the exception of West, did excellent
work. The Brooklyn made one run in
the fifth inning and one in the sixth
Fennelly made home run, Greenwood
a double, and Doyle and Walker two
single hits each, while for the Quick
step Benners and Cusick each made
singles and Rickley made two singles,

From the looks of the score of the

Mr.. John West, of this city, who
recently assumed the liabilities of the
Quickstep Association, and took the
club under his control, is deserving of
much credit, and the citizens should
show their appreciation of his efforts by
giving the club Il warm reception to.

Fry, the new catcher of the Active
club, is a full blooded negro, and, it is
said, plsys his position finely.
The Brooklyn club felt very sore over
their defeat yesterday, and are very
much alarmed when they lose a game
for fear the championship pennant will
slip from their grasp.
The players of the Anthracite base
bail club struck for wages on Wednes-
day, and by failing 10 appear on the

THE next CONGRESS-.
Predictions ~ 10 lts Organ Szat10n
Who arc Candidates for Ofiiees'


WASHINGTON, Sept. 2O.-The Even
ing Star prints tonight the following
as current talk about the organization
of the next House OF Representatives:
"As the time for The meeting Of Con-
gress approaches, the organization OF
the next House becomes subject Of in
creasing interest. Candidates for all
the positions from Speaker down are
stirring around, and seeking interviews
with members. For the position OF
Clerk there are three candidates, all ex-
members, Gen. Clark, Of Missouri, Gen.
Atkins, of Tennessee, and Mr. Martin,
Of Delaware. The race Is regarded as
between Clark and Atkins, both of
whom have strong friends to back them
among members with whom they have
served.
"For Sergeant there are also
three candidates now in the tield-COlo-
mel Thompson and ex-Congressman
Leedom, of Ohio, and General. Col, of
Connecticut. Messrs. Thompson and
Leedom each claim to have the Ohio
Democratic delegation at his back. II
is now understood that they will sub
NIT their claims respectively to the del
egation at meeting to be held In
Washington before the organization of
the House is entered upon, and the one
receiving q majority vote will be enter.
ed as Ohio's candidate, the other to
withdraw. General Colt has the hack
ing of all the New England Democrats
and of some from New York. New Jer-
sey and Pennsylvania. He was a
Union soldier and has been a lifelong
Democrat.
"For doorkeeper there are but two
candidates, General Field, the last In.
cumbent under Democratic rule, and
Colonel James Wintersmith, of Texas.
The race between them Is thought to be
close. Wintersmith has the support of
the younger element Of the Democracy,
while General Field seems to be strong
with the old fellows. Texas and Ken
lucky will put Wintersmith forward,
while Georgia backs Field.
I" For Postmaster there are four can
didates. The Indiana delegation will
present Mr.. l.. Dalton, a, present Su-
psrintendent of the Senate folding room.
The Virginia Democrats will nominate
Mr.. Fisher, Assistant Postmaster for
the last Democratic House. North Car
oliRa will present Mr. Armfield, a son
of the ex-member of that name, and Mr..
George Wedderburn has friends among
the members who intend to push him."
