A Great Game cfBall,

1t is doubtful if a better game of ball has
been played this season than that between the
Indianapolis and Allegheny clubs, at Pittsburg
yesterday, which was won by the latter by

earned in the first inning and there was but
single error on each side. But four hits were
made off of Aydelotte. The indianapolis club is

Cutting Down Expenses.

AS is customary with the Pennsylvania lines,
in June they cut down operating expenses, this
year by reducing the force in the shops, round
houses. yards and offices. At the shops in this
city twenty-seven men have been dis
charged, at the Columbus shops some sixty
men; at the indianapolis, Richmond g. Columbus
yards, a switching-engine and train-crew has
peen taken off; six telegraph operators have been
relieved on the Indianapolis division, and at the
Offices a weeding-out Of clerks is going AS
far as pFac tieable, man is discharged who has
family dependent upon him, and all are prom
ised work as soon as business improves.

The TRUTH of the Matter.

At the meeting of the general passenger agents
so fix rates to the Chicago convention, the Chi
,;ago. St Louis & Pittsburg, which has the
shortest line was allowed the privilege Of naming
the rate. and H. r. Dering, assistant general
passenger agent of the Pennsylvania named the
rate, making it one fare for the round trip
When the l., B. & W. came to sell its tickets it
named it's one trip rate, 81. 70, which they claim
fhey had right to do under the pooling
arrangement In this position they were
supported by President NIalott and
Commissioner Richardson and President Malott
instructed General Ticket Agent Donough at
the Union railway Office to sell round-trip tick
cts to Chicago over the c., st. L.. & P. and the
c., l., st. L. 6 G. at So so per ticket and over
the l., B. & w. at 81. 70, giving the latter its
slifferentia rate. On the other hand, the c., st
L. G. p and the c., l., st. L. & c. people take
the ground that the differential rate is not al
Iowabie when rates are reduced to con-
ventons or excursion rates are given;
consequently they met the rate made by the l.,
B. & w people. 1t is unfortunate for the Chi
cage and Ohio River pool that this question had
not been adjusted before the sale of tickets was
commenced as all troubles of this character
weaken the pool and lessen the confidence in its
fairness The l., B. G. w. certainly overreached
the pooling agreement in advertising its differ
entail rate so attraetively, or even at all, and
the c., st. l.. s. P, and c., l., st. L. & c.,
IS well, have broken the pooling agreement by
not respecting the order of President Malott,
which was that they should sell at one fare,
$3.50, round trip, owe their lines.

The Boyish Passenger Men.

do $ we'll For instance he said, take the bust
ness carried to the Chicago convention, 90
per cent as many persons would have been car
ried at full tariff rates and just many at two
third tariff rates. Yet in the outset, the gener-
al passenger agents cut the round trip rate right
two in the middle and then, when the people
began to go to Chicago one of their number IN
spite of all pooling agreements, dropped seven
ty FIVE cents under the half rate and of course,
the competitors made similar reduction and
the receipts from passengers carried were re

THE attendance at Hartford yesterday was below that of Battle Flag Day." Gan occasion by which all coming time crowds will be gauged in Counecticuf but the procession was larger, the decorations equally fine, and the enjoyment of the vet erans as intense, perhaps more so, because the lapse of time increases the interest of all occasions for reunion. The orator of the day was Senator Platt, and his speech was splendid and truthful eulogy of the honored Buckingham. The day was in- tensely hot, but was got through without serious accident The statue unveiled is in the battle flag corridor, and represents the governor sitting.
