CORRESPONDENCE OF THE DIsPATCH.l
1NDIANAPoLIs, September 22-The local
enthusiasts who have been, up to this time,
feeling very confident that the Hoosiers would
not only beat Pittsburgs out in the League
race, but would head Cleveland off also, are
not so happy and sanguine as they were before
the final series with the "Allies' commenced.
1t was thought that the home team would GER
tainly get two of the three games played, butthe
shoe was on the other foot when the battle was
over. and as result the Hoosiers are prac-
tically tied with the P1ttsburg team. They
have very rough road to travel during the
coming week. New York and Boston will be
here in the order named, and as is well known
both of these teams are after blood" and will
make bold effort to down the Hoosiers.
Heretofore Boston has been rather an easy
mark for the local men. but the club is not re-
garded as snap by any means. Getzein is
himself again, however, and the club is now in
much better shape than it has been for month
or more. Of late the management has been
securing pitchers from all directions, and it
looks now as If the club will have at least seven
men for that department within a week or two.
1t has five now and there are two counties to
hear from.
While IN Chicago last week Manager Glass
cock signed Tanning, who has been member
of the Davenport club up until recently. He
was with Buffalo last season and part of this.
Tanning did splendid work with Davenport.
and it was on his record made in that club that
the local management signed him. He was in
the box against Pittsburg yesterday, but was
injured early in the game and had no chance to
show what he-can do. He will be retained,
however, and given another trial Young Fee,
who was secured in the East while the club
was in Washington has pitched two games that
lead the management to think that he is going
to be a hammer. He is big, muscular fellow,
with great speed and fairly good command of
the ball.
talk with Burkett, of the Worcester club, and
it is understood he too, is to join the Hooslers
within few days. Glasscock has been watch
ing this young man for some time, and thinks
that he will develop into good one. He is
left-handed, and is a rattling base runner,
strong batter and a clever player in all re-
spects. l think the scheme is to give Burkett a
shows up well he well be signed for next season.
Pitcher Shreve, who was released by the
Hoosiers in the spring and went to Detroit
came back to indianapolis to-day, and it is
not improbable that he, too, will help the local
team out. He was always effective against
New York, and it is likely he will pitch in one
or two of the series with that team. 1t is un-
under the terms of his contract, and that he
refuses to play there again. He wants to come
back to Indianapolis. 1t is the evident inten-
tion OF the local management to get every
pitcher in sight. hoping to find ''phenom' or
two for next season. President Brush is out
again with a positive statement that the
Hoosiers viii be in the League in 1890.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. ]


PHILLIPsBURG. CENTER COUNTY, Sep
tember 22.-Great excitement prevails in
this city to-day as a result OF terrible
tragedy enacted this morning. Several
years ago w. S. Hopkins, young car
penter of Rochester, N. Y, came to this
city and became infatuated with Miss Maggie
Wighaman, a fair and beautiful young
lady, and after short courtship they were
married. The union proved an unhappy
one in some respects and jealousies rose,
Hopkins blaming his young wife with being
untrue to him.
Not long ago he had some trouble with
some of the immediate family of his wife,
when he was arrested on charge of assault
and was placed under bail. For some days
past Hopkins has been away from this place,
stopping at Houtzdale and Osceola, two
towns within a few miles of here, but last
night came back and lurked around town,
his wife, it appears, not knowing OF his
presence. Last night at late hour 1t is
supposed he secreted himself in the cellar OF
his late home, where his wife stayed. At 10
o'clock this morning he entered the house,
went upstairs, and shot and instantly killed
Mrs. Wighaman, his mother-in-law. When
he came down to the kitchen he fred shot,
almost instantly killing his wife, who was
at the time washing the breakfast dishes.
He then ran out of the house on to the
street, informed several persons that he had
shot and killed his wife and mother-in-law.
AND THEN HIMSELF.
He went to A. II. Al1port's livery stable
and, raising the same revolver he had used
to kill his wife and mother-in-law above
his head, fired two shots, both striking and
glancing from his skull instead of entering
his brain, as was intended. One of the
glancing balls struck and entered the door.
which has been viewed by hundreds of
curious people to-day. The murderer was
taken into custody and now lies in a pre-
carious condition from the wounds made by
his own hands. He is very weak from loss
of blood. The physicians think he will
survive. The following letters were found
upon him:
