Eagen, Welsh and Stickney did terrific
batting for the home team. Yak COM

Othsr TFJ.Stnts Games and NoteH

Other Tri-state Games and Notes.
Wheeling's ball players, ut present the
leaders in the Tri-state Leagues race
and the wOuld-bepennant winners, were
again defeated in yesterdays game at
Jackson and to say that the patrons Of,
and believers in the club, here at home,
are rapidly becoming disguised is put
tingitvery mildly. Twostrdght defeats
by the Jax team-the tail-enders, is
something inexcusable, and when one
reflects that three out of the seven de-
feats Wheeling has suffered have
been on account OF this Jax team
the situation is disgustingly bad. II
the games played by the Wheeling team
the past two days are intended as fare
well testimonials to Delahanty it is
time the testimonial business was over.
There is no blaming OF the umpire that
can excuse the result OF the last two
games. The Wheeling team is strong
enough to have won these games
easily; that it did not is something that
requires an explanation. Yaik's ''sore
hand" should be looked after at once.
Wheeling used to have daring base
stealers; the daring spirit was not on
them yesterday. The story of defeat is
reported as follows:

PITTSBURGH, May 2S.-The different
lodges of the Amalgamated Association
are expecting to receive this week from
headquarters the suggestions on the
new wages scale. The officials of the
Association refuse to make any state
ment regarding the scale for the next
year. A member OF the Association to-
day said that he felt confident that they
would not agree to any reduc-
ton. 1t is stated the man
uiacturers will offer the puddlers
- per ton on twO-cent card. This Is
equal to q reduction OF fifty cents per
ton from the present price. Outside OF
this it is thought twenty per cent re-
duction will take place. A manutac-
turer who was seen said, ut is not a
question OF whether there will be re-
duction of wages, but how much it will
amount to. think that there is not
doubt that the Amalgamated people
would agree to ten per cent reduction,
but the manufacturers will likely ask
still more on account OF the condition OF
the iron market.

Another from the Presbytery of Palti-
more was in regard to the use OF the re-

of the Ways and Means Committee are
hard at work upon the amendments pro-
posed by the Democrats endeavoring to
dispose OF them before the end OF the
week, so that the House can enter upon
the consideration OF the bill for amend
ment next week. The Republicans are
confident that they will be able TO agree
upon a substitute for the Mills bill, and
the conference has already outlined
several of the leading points OF the
measure, but it is their present plan to
allow the consideration OF the pending
bill to run along under the five minute
rule for some time in order to fully dis
close in the debate the sentiment OF all
the members OF the party.
