 Yesterday afternoon the Yale nine again proved to the six hundred spectators present at the Yale Field that they are good fielders and possessed of more coolness than is characteristic of the average college nine at this early stage of the season. The men played in the same position as in the game with the Jersey Citys week ago, with the exceptions that Brigham moved from right to left and Willett played right, taking Shep- pard's place on the nine. The game was chiefly contest between the two pitchers, although there was number of hot balls hit. The features of the game for Yale were Dann's catching and fine throwing to second where he cut off three men, Stagg's pitching and Marsh's fine stop on first. The follow ing is the complete score:

BIRMINGHAM, April 14.-Rev. Orlando Witherspoon, the well-known rector of St. James, Episcopal church for the past six years, died this morning at 2 o'clock. He was found in an insensible condition on the 29th of last month, and seemed to improve afterward, but the hope inspired was of short duration as the symptoms changed for the worse and he rapidly failed despite the most assiduous attention, devoted care, and the best medical skill. He was very highly re- spected gentleman and of cultivated and scholarly tastes and decided literary at tainments. He was born in Rochester, N. Y., and graduated at an early age at Trinity college. He was the author of several books which had good sale. He leaves wife and seven grown up children. The funeral will be held as St. James Epis- copal church Friday at 1 D. m.

They sim gled out certain stocks and hammered them per slstentIy in an effort to break them In some cases Iney succeeded in forcing decline but in others they s1gnaly failed. As result the closing figures were 1rregularly changed from those of last night aoout half the list showing small declines and oth CTS advances to similar extent. The specialties on the other hand were strong throughout, retain ing most Of the early advance. The sales for the day amounted to 225 916 shares.
