Closing Of the League Season.
Pitcher Hutchinson to 90 to Chicago.
Boston Makes Great Deal with the
Detroits.

The national league championship season
of 1883 has now passed into history, and the
final result is shown in the table given below.
For the first time since it became a member
of the league, New York wins the pennant.
4 From the very outset this team has been re-
garded in many quarters as the one that was
sure to carry off the prize. II has been for
tunate in having splendidly equipped batter
les, a corps of first class players, and, in the
last half of the season, it has been under fal
better discipline than ever before.
The second place is won by the Chicagos.
This result speaks volumes of praise for the
generalship of Capt. Anson. Denied the
services of his star pitcher of 1887, and of
his most valuable lieutenant of 1886, he has
been compelled to make their places good
with such material as he could find. Under
adverse circumstances he has reason to feel
proud of the fight he has made and the place
he finally secured.
Harry Wright has persistently asserted
through the season that he would defeat the
Bostons and Detroits for third place. He
has kept his word. Death robbed him of
Ferguson-the man upon whom he depended
above all others to lead his men to victory
with his remarkable pitching skill-at the
very outset of the season, and he has not
been able to fully make his loss good. In
Sanders, however, he found a valuable help
mate to Buffnton, and both of these pitchers
have done splendid service.
Boston is compelled to be satisfied with
the fourth place in the race. The course of
its team has been most erratic throughout the
season. 1t started off with winning nine
games in succession, and its most sanguine
friends saw visions of the pennant flying
from the south end grounds. The course of
the team has been reviewed again and again.

JACKSoNvILLES SENSATION.
The Volunteer Physicians Get Angry at
Newspaper Reports and Resign in
Body.

JACKSONVILLE, Oct. IA.
The sensation of today has been the resig-
nation of all the physicians of the medical
bureau. A communication in the Saturday
evening paper tabulated statement of ex-
penses of maintaining this corps of yolun-
teer physicians here, the cost per man be-
ing estimated at $500 per mouth or $1,000
for the whole corps of II. The communica-
tion took the ground that the
resident physicians can take care of the sick
from now until the epidemic ends,
and Winter therefore advocated the discharge
of these volunteers from further service.
This made them indignant and they resigned
in body last night. The sentiment of the
community today strongly condemns this
precipitate action. Tonight they all agreed
to attend patients as usual, the board of
health meanwhile to investigate and report
upon the causes which led to the publication
of the article referred to. The whole thing
is likely To end in smoke in a few days
The official bulletin is as follows: New
cases Is, deaths .. Total cases to date,
5, ,544 total deaths, 3l3.
