sionally by the little pesterers that she
impatiently brushed from her face when
they became unbearably annoying. At

SALTWATER, July 2S.-Stillwater had pad
luck at the game to-day. In the first inning
while j. F. Quinn was pitching in excellent
form he threw ball with such force that he
injured his arm so badly that it is doubtful
if he plays any more this season. DR.. Mil
lard was on the ground and attended to him,
and his arm has started on the road to re-
coyery. Bradley was then put in to pitch,
but he was in no form, and in the fourth in
ming they struck him out of the box, making
eight runs. He gave place to j. Quinn who
pitched au excellent ball to the catching of
Visner, and only one run was made off him.
The boys take the defeat lightly, knowing
that had their pitcher not been disabled they
would have waxed the visitors. There was a
little wrangling again to-day as the visitors
played their men in just such order to bat as
they chose, but a protest has been entered.
Stapleton made couple of errors for which
there was no cause, as they were from sheer
carelessness, both being easy flies. The
visitors played well together and had a rec
ord of only two errors. Cox's muff of an
easy ball was a surprise. Every one ex-
presses regret at Quinn's injury, as much
Of the success of the club of late was ow-
ing to his fine pitching. Getzein and Cast
field made strong battery, Gastfeld having
few equals as catcher. The attendance was
fully 500. Following is the score:

To the disgrace of the dudes let it be re-
corded that they have given two games to
the Fort Wayne club, and both on inexcus-
able errors. The playing yesterday gave all
who were in sympathy with the home club
the horrors, so to speak. The club has been
decidedly weak the past week, however. Car
uthsrs is quite i'll. MeCauley has played with
a lame leg, and Walker is laid upwith lame
finger. Yesterday Pearson and McCauley
occupied the points, and they both played au

out at least eight men, but yesterday he only
retired half that number on three strikes,
while Mac had three passed balls. To IL

New YORK, July 28.-There were some
slight reactions this morning, but it looked
as though the bulls had let 90, for a moment
only, to secure a firmer hold, as everything
was on the advance before a half hour
elapsed. st. Paul was the leader with fair
days business in it before the noon hour
was reached. The large amounts of stocks
sold on Saturday seem to have been quietly
absorbed and fresh orders from all quarters
kept the commission brokers very busy. Mr..
Gould is credited with being the chief man
ipulator, and his tactics, in days gone by
have been never to allow any severe reac-
tions while engineering bull movement
BY midday there was considerable realiz-
ing, however, and prices weakened all along
the line. A failure Of firm who were un-
fortunate enough to have sold too many
stocks was announced during the last hour,
but it had little effect. The market felt the
pressure of free selling, which continued up
to the end, and prices were at about the
lowest when the day closed. The downwa;u
movement may continue tomorrow. If so
the good properties will probably be a pur-
chase again. The bears talked confidently of
lower figures, while the bulls do not seem
to be at all discouraged at the reductions
to-day.
A. NJ. Day says: IA strong opening Mon
day was predicted Saturday afternoon and
in hopes of good prices there are many sell
ing orders in at the opening. The leaders
apparently expected this and opened the list
from &@15 &c below the close of Saturday,
the latter being st. Paul. After the selling
orders had been filed the whole list was ad-
vanced and the market seemed to be healthy
and strong. Selling orders attributed to
Mr.. Gould were detected and the cliques at
once withdrew their support, causing a sag
in prices which lasted up to the close. The
failure of DeWoR " Swan, small bear
house, gave some improvement the last half
hour, but the tone at the close was rather
heavy and some stocks were weak. This may
prove to be the expected reaction, and if so,
the market may be expected to do
better again. But the course
of prices to morrow and the position
of the leaders will better settle the question.
There were some features during this after
noon that did not look right. insiders scld

Prior TO the opening the bull cards for the
week were Lake Shore, Union Pacific and
| Northern Pacific; seven thousand shares of

and Saturday. President Smith, of the Or

pany has paid off its loan. Vanderbilt bro
