SALTWATER, July 9.-The Saltwater club
was again defeated on the diamond by the
Saginaw team, but the game was very close,
the score being to Z. The game was very
evenly played, both sides getting their great
err number of runs in the fifth inning, the
visitors making five and the home team
three runs. The pitching of Fowler was
good and Koran never played better, stick
ing to balls like a leech. Rittenhouse pitched
good game, but the catching Of Lockwood
was not as good as the catching yesterday.
Faatz, on first base, did some tall catching,
but was little bit given to mistakes. There
was some exceedingly sharp base running
by both sides, in which Peters, though lame,
won the laurels on his two-baser, making
third. Stapleton's slide for home plate was
we'll done, earning him the run. The home
team worked together better to-day than they
did yesterday, and with a change or two will
come up to the mark. There was no extra
brilliant play, although there was some good
work put in by Peters and Forester, the short
stops. There were no bases given on balls
in the game, but the visitors put five men of
the home team out on strikes, against four
teen yesterday. Considering the good ma
terial in the Saginaw team the Saltwater boys
may feel that they played an excellent game,
and will down the Sagnaws yet. The fol-
lowing is the score::'

A NEW OBSTACLE

Which Presented Itself Yesterday IN the
Way of the g. Il. IL. Encdntpnsent -4r-
r0ngenents,
Yesterday morning committee composed
of Mayor Pillsbury, Capt Rea, is. Pillsbury,-
Geo. L. Dale, Col. Benton, Thos. Lowry and
Capt. Babb, representing the chamber of
commerce, board of trade, and the executive
committee of the G.. A. r., met to examine
the West hotel for the purpose of ascertaining
if the completion is practicable in time for
the accommodation of the g. A. R. veterans
on the 22d. Under the guidance of Archi
tect Burlington a tour of inspection was
made through the building The rooms of
the sixth, seventh and eighth floors seemed
to be ready, and the fifth and fourth
floors nearly so. The third and second,
seemed to be so far from completion to
almost place it beyond hope that they could
be put in conditionsby the 22d inst, when
they will be needed. OF course these floors
are the most important Of all, containing the
dining rooms, kitchens, etc.
Mr.. Sheppard, the manager, said it would
be impossible to finish in tune with the pres
ent force of workmen. If enough men were
put to work Immediately the hotel would be
able to accommodate the people. The furni-
ture, ranges, kitchen ware, table service,
etc, is all ready and could be
soon put in place if the men are out of the
way. The hard wood work is badly behind,
while the completion of the closets and laun
dry, and the connection with the Fifth street
sewer are the main obstacles to overcome.
Architect Burlington stated if he was doing
the work himself he would put in a sufficient
force of men, but as it is he is bound by his
agreements with the contractors.
None of the contractors were to be seen,
SO the meeting was postponed until O'Clock
in the afternoon.
ANOTHER MEETING THIS MORNING.
The committee met again at o'clock in
the afternoon, but the contractors did not
appear so adjournment was had until 10
O'Clock this morning 1t is to be hoped that
the contractors will be sufficiently public
spirited to increase the number of workmen.
If through their neglect the hotel is not
ready then entertainment of the citys
guests will be seriously embarrassed, an Of
Tense which will not be readily pardoned nor
| forgotten.
