WON IN THE LAST INNING.
THE HOME CLUB DEFEATS THE
CHATTANOOGAS 4 TO 1.

O'Day's Pitching Proves too Much for
the TennesseeAps-Only One Hit Made
OFF His Deiivery-The Directors De-
eide to Carry the Club Through the
Season -Naehville DislOdEed from
Second Place and Atlanta Close Pu he'd
for the Lead-A Hard Fight for the
Pennant from Now On.
The home club defeated the Chattanoo-
gas yesterday 4 to l. The visitors cot bu t
one hit off O'Day, while Shreve was batted
for eight singles and one double. Up to
the ninth inning the game was one OF the
prettiest that has been played on the
grounds.
Strict scored IN the second inning,
making an earned run. In the sixth
inning Graham got first base on muf by
Stockwell. Dickerson followed with a
safe hit to right field, advancing Graham
TO third. The visitors had the second and
third bases filled and nobody out. With
Cross at the bat and Arundel on third for
Graham watching chance to steal home,
Gillen threw the ball to Collins at short.
Arundel started home at tearing pace.
Collins returned the ball, but threw too
low. 1t struck GIllen's foot and bounded
over his head away Outofreacb, and Arun-
del scored. ODay struck out the next
three men. This was the only run the
visitors made.
After the first run Savannah failed to
score until the ninth inning, and the game
up to this point was tie. 1t looked very
much as though it would be an extra inn
ing game. Gillen was the third man at the
bat in the last inning and was given his
base on balls. HOtaling reached first in
the same way, Field had already been
given his base three times ON balls, and
every body looked for a nit. Shreve
seemed TO lose control OF the ball, and for
the fourth time gave Field his base, ad-
Vancing Gi!len to third and HOtaling to
second. Collins hit to short. Cross fun
bled the ball and before he could
throw to second Gillen scored. With
Hotaling on third Field on second and
Collins on first MOriarity drove a hot
liner through the pitchers hands, bring
ing HOtaling and Field home. Collins
was caught at second, retiring the side
The visitors were last at the bat, but failed
to score.
The game was prettily played all the
way through. ShreVe, the visitors box
man was wild, and gave six men bases on
balls. Otherwise the visitors played
sharp game. Their fielding is superb.
ODay struck cut nine men, and played q
magnificent game. The following is the
score:

Firms Interested
The suit Of l. Bashinsky, Of Cochran,
against NJ. Nussbaum & Co., of Macon,
for 100000 damages, is attracting con.
siderable interest in Savannah.
In November, 1884, Bashinsky fail
ed. He had several creditors in
this city, among them being
the firms, Meinhard Bros. & Co., A.
Einstein's Sons, G. Eckstein 81 Co., and
Jos. ROsenheim & Co. Each Of the above
firms, with the exception OF Einstein' s
Sons, settled with Bashinsky, taking 30
cents on the dollar. The goods for which
he owed savannah business houses were
valued at $4,000.
bill in the Superior Court at
Macon alleging that Nussbaum had adj
yised him to buy goods in Macon
and ship them back from Cochran to
Nussbaum in Macon. The complainant
declares that Nussbaum said to him :
Buy all you can, and Whatever you ship
to me is that much made. or. saved. You
must try TO ship at least 5000 or $1,000
worth OF goods from your store, and buy
them rom anybody you can"
The allegations then 90 on To show that
complainant bought goods on credit and
shipped between $1,000 and $4,000 worth
OF them to Nussbaum. "Ihese goods
Nu5sbaum knew, as well as complainant,
had not been paid for; he knew that they
were bought on credit and that they
were bought in pursuance Of the sugges-
lion and understanding between him and
northumberland the goods were to be
bought for the fraudulent purpose Of re-
shipping them back TO NussDaum in
Macon from compliments store in COch-
RAM
The allegations further rccite that com
plalnant asks from the court assistance
against Nnesbaum, who is seeking TO save
himself and rob the balance OF complain
ants creditors bv the false representations
to complainant which he has never even
attempted to fulfill"
Bashlnsky claims that his house was
Illegally closed by Nussbaum, who tried
to take possession of his property. The
complainant also charges that paper
purportingto be "a mortgage beld by Nuss-
baum was fraudulent.
The bill further sets forth, according to
the Macon IetegTaDh, that Nussbaum
drew Abe Moss, the assignee Of Ba-
shinsky, into his scheme, "Ind that by
secret, or, at least, undisclOsed repre-
sensations to the complainant, he procured
the assistance OF Mr.. Moss, who, by
combination between the two, deceived
the other creditors aud secured possession
OF the stock at Cochran. That in order to
do this they blinded the creditors by con-
cealing certain books which were IN COM
plaiaaut's safe at Cochran.
Bashinsky ppays the court that a re-
celyer NAV be appointed to receive what
ever OF bis assets may remain in the
hands Of Nussbaum.
Messrs. Einstein have Just learned
from their attorney that they have OBJ
tanned a judgment against Bashinsky for
the full amount OF their bln.

The Meanest Man.

Burrows was an inyeterate tobacco
chewer. but as his wife detested the prac-
tee he always chewed when away during
the day, and declared that he had stopped
permanently. But one evening, drawing
out his handkerchief, he accidentally
pulled Out his paper of tobacco, and, with
out noticing it, left it living on the floor.
When Burrows sat down to tea, his wife
walked in with the tobacco in her hand,
and looking Burrows firmly in the eve,
said: "Do you know who that belongs to? p
With great presence of mind Burrows
turned scOwiiug to his oldest boy and
said, with a severe voice, Immortal
Mars! Is it possible that you have begun
to chew tobacco, you young reprobate
Come here to me, or I'll tear the jacket of
of YOU" And as he spoke, the father
made a grab al the boy and dragged him
out in the entry, where he chastised him
with a cane. Then Burrows threw the
tobacco over the fence, where he went out
and got it in the morning, and enjoyed it
during the day. "Mercitui MOses!" he
exclaimed, when he told US about it,
what should have done If nv children
had been all girls? 1t makes an old
fathers heart glad wnen he feels that he
has boy he can depend on in such emer-
gencies."
