What the Pltyers Find to Talk About.
 Whitpsy of the New Yorks is considered the 1uekiest batter in the country.
 The New Yorks have started on their last western trip. They open in Indianapolis to- day.
 The base ball bridegrooms had another one added to their number at 3 o'clock Wednes- day when William A. Sunday, the ex-Chieago right fielder, and present PittsbuIg center fielder, was welded to Miss Helen A. Thomp- son of Chicago. The ceremony took place at the residence of the brides parents, 62 Throop street. No one except the immediate friends was invited.
 Buck Ewing was doing some frst-class kicking the other day when Umpire Kelly said: "If you don't shut up I'll fine you for the full amount" Buck did shut up and Kelly remarked, 4Dld you see him dropi"
 President Von der Ahe of the St. Louis club is already sending out invitations for his worlds championship series. Wheeler Wy koff has just received his invitation to accom- pany tue team on the trip. Won der Ahe is to have a special car.
 President Davidson of the Louisvilles has bought the release of Henry Raymond, third baseman of the San Antonio club, for $500. He is said to be hard hitter, hne runner and the surest man after high fly balls in the South.
 The sale of Chamberlain to St. Louis seems to be regarded by many in Louisville as an indication that the Louisville club will be dissolved at the end of the present season, and that President Davidson is trying to cern by parcelling out the players. Again, there are those who think that the sale was simply for this season, and the money wal paid by Won der Ahe, who wants to make sure of winning the championship in order to play the series for the worlds champion ship. Director Roland and ex-President Phelps holds this view, although with the latter it is merely an opinion and not backed up by any information. In case this is true the figures quoted GA ,000) are greatly exag- gerated. It is currently reported there that f'Kid" Cross is also to be sold, the Athletics having made good offer for him. With Chamberlain out of the team the club might as well let the "Kid" go, since he will cer- tainly not do the work now that he is capa- ble of, Ramsey and Ewing having regular catchers, and 1t seems as if Cross will he placed on the substitute list.
 The New York have won IA out of 20 games with Philadelphia, and one was a draw.
 Anson is the only man eyer known to make 8 home run after being presented with bou- quet, which he did during the last series with Detroit.
 Each one of the St. Louis players was measured for a new suit of clothes Saturday. President Won der Ahe thinks the Browns are certain to win the Association pennant, and the new clothes are to be worn for trsv- cling when they play for the worlds cham pionship. The Browns showed their appre- citation of the new regalla by dropping three straight to Brooklyn. Ball playing and Hot clothes wins pennants.
 Meade, the Holy Cross college pitcher, who, had he been properly supported would have defeated the Yales, now leads the New Eng land league pitchers.
 The temporary injunction in the case of Pitcher Widner, of the Washingtons, has taken effect and he probably will not play with that team again this season.
