PHLADELPnIA, Aug. =l.-But for two vile decisions Ly Umpire Valentino in tue seventh inning oy yesterdays game the home team would have tied the Bos- tons, aud m all probability passed them, thus retaining fourth place. With but one man out and Irwiu OH third base, Dele hanty drove a fair ball down the right foul line, which was apparently good for two bases. Valentine was unnecessarily standing behind the pitchers box and de- clared the ball foul. Marvellous running catches by Andrews and Fogarty were tho features or the game. The score:

LOST ON AN OLD TRAIL.
fin a Gulley For Six Days With Ono Arm
 and Both Legs Broken.

CHICAGO, Aug 21.---A despatch from Breckenridge, Col, says: O. o. Lee left this place on Aug. 10 for Silver Plume, over the Argentine Pass. He reached the top of the range at about dark and missed the road at a very dangerous place, and by fol- lowing an abandoned trail undertook to cross broken bridge.
 Missing his footing he was precipitated to the bottom of the gulley, distance of twenty-five feet. There he lay for six days and nights, suffering untold torture with one arm and both legs broken, and without food or drunk.
 A traveller, who happened to cross the range, found the unfortunate man still alive, but unable to speak. The traveller rode distance of fifteen miles and pro- cured assistance The party returned with a carriage, in which they placed L-e, but alter journeying about i've miles the man 0ia1

CHICAGO, Aug. 21.--Mrs. H. J. Lindlev, who was detained on suspicion that she was abducting young girls for i'm moral purposes has been given her liberty. There is no longer any doubt that. the arrest was a big blunder, and there is every probability that somebody connected with rhe police department will get intos trouble over it. Convincing proof was given to Lieut.. Elliott this morning that Mrs. Lindley is lady of good character, and that the object for which she was tak- ing the young ladies ont of town was d. per- fectly legitimate one.

The Public Buildings Appropriation.

WASHINGTON, Aug a1.-There is quite a panic among members interested in public buildings bills over the discussion ot large appropriations. They naturally appreherd that the result of the agitation will be ,to make 1t practically impossible to pass at thls session any more bills, except the ap- propriations bills, which invole an expen- allure of money. There are a number of bills for largS buildings in important cities either in conference, or between the two houses, which are pretty certain to be af- fected by this sentiment. Among these bills are those for public buildings at Omaha and at Milwaukee.

 Winners Yesterday.

WAsuNGToN, Aug. 2L-The game here yesterday between the Giants and Sena- tors was mainly pitchers contest, but there was some fine fielding, and the result was in doubt to the very last. It was very warm-just Keofe's weather, and he made a spectacle of the Senators. He pitched magnificently and shut them cut with one scrath hit, which was really a foul ball. Ewing caught a wonderful game up to the ninth inning, and his bad break then, ow- ing to phenomenal play by Richardson, cost nothing. Little Danny, by the way, had large proportion of tho intield work to do and greatly distinguished himself. He was everywhere at the right time, and completely captured the 2,500 spectators by his great stops and throws. For the Senators O'Day pitched d splendid game, and only five hits were made by the Giants. Had O'Day been perfectly supported the two teams might have been playing yet, but errors by Myers Hoy and O'Brlen and some very fine basc running by Connor and Ewing gave Now York two runs and the game.

A GIGANTIC EFFORT
Made by the Flint Glass Mon to Down the
Rochester Factory.
!cf1f-x4t Tsl<or1r, m pbe P>yiaer

Made by the Flint Glass Mon to Down the
Rochester Factory.
Seen Tsterdm 10 be Reuiaer.
PITTSBURGH, October s.-One Of the
most gigantic schemes ever tried by a labor
organization to bring q refractory estab-
lishment to terms, or to establish more
wages and rules in factory, is about 10 be
put in force by the American Flint Glass
Workers Upioo. The Rochester Tumbler
Works, of Rochester, Pa, is the only non
union glass factory of any Importance
which exists in this country, and it has
been for years an eye sore to the union
workmen. Every time they would try to
make any kind of an adjustment Of wages
the employers would raise the point Of in
ability to compete with the Rochester
Company on tumblsrs aud beer mugs, and
they have always held it up as Ct. tsrion
to the men in all branches. The large
number Of pieces made for turn and the
smell wages paid has given the Rochester
factory almost extlasive control Of
the tumbler and beer mug bIsi'
nee, and other factories have
practically dropped cut Of the line
entirely. The American Flints have tried
time and again to get the men at Roches-
te, to Join the union and stard ont for
wages. and have several times paid almost
full wage, to them in benefits. The last
effort was the most succt sstul, but it is
signal failure in the case of the pressers,
although the blowers have been pretty
nearly all kept out. This last move was
to secure Job, for all the Rochester men in
union factories. It worked we'll fo7 while,
but the pressers in time nearly sll re-
turned. The latest ide, is not to try to
induce the men } Join the union, but to
force the pIoprietors Of the Rochester fac
tory to want union men and to compete on
a fair basis for trade. 1t is proposed by
the heads of the union to allow the uniop
workmen in all factories where tumblers
are made to make them In such
numbers and at such a price
as will slow the manuiacs'
urers employing union men -
sell tumb? era at a lower price than the
Roche tster people can produce them at.
This will give the union factories such an
advantage over the Rochester people that
they will either have to close up entirely
or employ union men and compete on
equal terms with the other factories. II
is p-oposei by the union to pay their men
WHO ale employed in cutting down The
R,ch ester people bonus which will maxi
their wages the sams as the union li,t
The plan is to be KEEP. up if necessary for
several years or until ths end is accom-
plished.
