BASEBALL IO-MORROW.-At Agricultural
Park tomorrow, at go 2. NJ, the Atlas
and Pioneers will meet again. For some
reason the Atlas have rarely been able to
make as good Il showing against the Pho
neers as they have against the Haverlys
and GREENWOOD dt Morans which are gem
orally considered stronger than the Pho
neers; but to-morrOw's game is expected
to show different state of affairs. The
Atlas will have what they have so long
needed, an excellent pitcher, the redoubt-
able Sweeney having signed as member
of the organization. When III good form
he Is not only a splendid pitcher-occupy
ing the box more gracefully than any other
man we have had on the coast-but he is
excellent AT the bat, watches bases so close
~ tina: it is perilous for a runner 20 stray
far away from them, and has all the points
OF the game at his fingers ends, as ii were.
