Eastern New England Leagu,

PoRrLANDs G, BRoCKToNs 3.
About 1900 people were on the Portland grounds
yesterday afternoon, and saw the home team defeat
the Broektons after most exciting game.
The Portlands opened the game in lively man
ner Annis sending the second ball pitched to him
down to the LETT Held fence, and took two bases.
Munce was given his base on balls, and both scored
on Oxley's hit over the fence for home run, Long
fled out to Tofing Weidel struck out, and Phillips
hit safely, stole second, and was put out in at
tempting to score on Clark's hit. Three runs for
Portlands.
McGunnigle and Hawes struck out, Howard hit
safely, but Totfiing easy out. The first four
innings were all alike for the Brocktons all blanks
hit steal, passed ball and another hit. In the
eighth they added one more Howard's hit, q
steal and Cudworth's hit. Their third run was
made IN the ninth on Shaw's hit steal, a wild
pitch, and Clark's tumble of McGunnigles hit.
Portland added one in the third on Longs hit, q
steal, balk, and Weideps hit. IN the fifth they
increased their score by two. Pigg0tt was given a
base on balls; passed ball and Munce's two-bag-
ger letting him score. Munce took third on pass
ed ball, and scored Oxley's HIT After this they
were unable to score.
The visitors unable to hit Weidel to auy ex-
tent, their seven hits being scattered throughout
the game Oxey's support was fine. and the whole
team played game which, if continued, will place
tnem towards the top of the list.
sylvester started in to pitch, but the first inning
convinced him that he was out of place, and Mc-
Gunnigle pitched the last eight innings.
Plggott took every chance offered him, and Pope
made Two double plays unassis ed. Philips made a
magnificent catch of a foul fly, and deserved the
appause he received. Hawes's first base play was
noticeable, and Toffiing played a fine game at sec
ond, while BgnelPs throwing to second was per-
feet. The score:

Stolen Property Recovered from
the Indians.
POundmaker's Best Warriors Join Big
Bear.

BArTLEFoRD, N. W. T., May 27-(via Win
nlpeg, May 2S.)-A body of mounted police
went out to an Indian camp to-day and
brought in number of Indians, 100 cattle
and quite number of horses, with carts and
wagons. These have been identified by
settlers here as their property stolen by In
dians. Scouts have been unable to find Big
Bears location, and much doubt is expressed
as to where he is or what his intentions are
Gen. Strange is now supposed to be near Pitt,
and will likely follow up Big Bears trail. Five
half-breeds, who said they were held by
Ponndmaker as prisoners, were imprisoned by
the authorities here to-day, charged with in
citing the rebellion and assisting the Indians
The feeling against them is strong and the
evidence direct Reed, assistant Indian COM
missioner, ordered the Indians to return to
their reservations to-day. The Indians charged
with the murder of Frank Smart were locked
up.
General Middleton has called for the non
commissioned officers and privates in the
different corps here to volunteer for service in
the Northwest for period of time after mat
ters are settled.
1t is reported that over 100 of Poundmaker's
best men have gone to join Big Bear. If Big
Bear comes in, the campaign will be quickly
ended.

xesterdny,s Trial Trip a Perfec, sv

Yesterdays Trial Trip Perfect Success.
New YORK, May 2S.-From the minute the
dolphin left her pier on her governmental trial
"Trip to-day until she anchored in the stream
OH 18th street on her return nothing but good
fortune attended her. John Roach was on
board and appeared somewhat anxious. The
speed OF the Dolphin ranged from Is to 164
Knots an hour, and at the end of six hours
the steamer had travelled 90 nau ticaI miles at
at average speed of 10 IL knots an hour,
From comparison of notes made by the off.
GERS it appeared that the screw of the Dolphin
had made 26,471 revolutions in driving the
ship " miles at an average speed per minute
OF 1851 revolutions. The engines had con-
sumed $40 pounds of coal or at the rate of
40 tons In "a hours No sooner had the result
OF the trial been announced than Mr.. Roach
was made the recipient of many congratula-
tIons. The Dolphin had exceeded the speed
demanded of her under the contract without
pressing her engines too hard. Among naval
officers on board only one, Commodore Bel
knap, could be found who was willing to ad-
NIT that he had been on government vessel
that eqoslled or exceeded the speed developed
by the Dolphin. While members of the ad-
Vlsory board were unwilling to commit them
selves it was understood from expressions
dropped during the day that they were pleased
with the result of the trip.

WARRINGTON, May 28.-The attorneys for
certain postmasters have complained to Post
master General Villas that the construction
placed by Postmaster General Gresham upon
the act OF March 3, 1888, providing for read
Justment Of salaries of postmasters of the third
and fourth classes was arbitrary and extreme
~ unjust to postmasters in whose behalf the
act was passed. Assistant Attorney General
Bryant OF the post office department has care
fully examined the complicated statutes bear
Ing uDon the subject, and as result of his re-
port the Postmaster General decided that
while the matter of construction ia not frea
from doubt and he is not absolutely sure that
the construction OF Postmaster General Gres-
ham was right in the premises yet the rule
having been followed for two years and some
thing over 100000 having been appropriated
by Congress for payment of salaries on that
basis, be does not deem it proper on the
strength of his own individual opinion to
change that ruling. The remedy of lclaimants
was only through the courts or BY additional
congressional enactment.
