A VERY WILD PITCH.
Minneapolis Wants TO Take Pittsburg's
Place in the National League.

Minneapolis Wants TO Take Pittsburg's
Place in the National League.
Hallucination in baseball circles must be
somewhat catching. The following Associated
Press dispatch from Minneapolis would seem
to be almost the height of absurdity:
1t is rumored here tonight that Manager
Morton, of the Minneapolis Baseball Club. has
received an offer TO go into the National
League, and that it is among the probabilities
that Minneapolis will take Pittsburg's place in
season of 1890 1t is stated that the offer is still
under consideration, but that no action
has yet been taken. 1t is also rumored that a
Boston visited the city a short time ago, and
before leaving had expressed his approval of
the scheme. The central location of the
grounds in this city has been the means of at
tracing unusually large crowds this season,
the attendance thus far averaging about 1000.
A special to The DISPATCH from Minneap
oils on the same subject says: Baseball enthu
League team is to be placed in this city.
With Manager Phillips lying at the
point of death, and baseball enthusiasm
anxious to pull out He broached the subject
Of the sale of his team to A. L. Spalding, of
Chicago Spalding, who with Sam Morton

.Aef ~ "1AS " nm 80
tain circumstances Minneapolis might be
given Pittsburg's franchise and players
for the season of 1890. That is the way the
matter now stands, and whether the offer will
be accepted is still unsettled. With probably
the most centrally located grounds in the
country, the attendance here this season
has been phenomenal, and will warrant
a much higher. priced team than that which
now represents it. With the pick of the pres
ent team and the players that would be trans
ferred with the franchise, it is figured that
winning club could be gotten together. But until
st. Paul is in position to enter faster COIN
pany, 1t is dou btful if Minneapolis will seek the
older organization, as the intense rivalry be-
tween the two cities rebounds to the beneft of
the ball club managers in no small degree"

TROUBLE AT COLUMBUS.
Some Quiet Fines Cause the Players TO
Make a Row

Make Row
COLUMBUS, O., August Al Mays. the
pitcher was released by the Columbus club TO-
night. In the beginning of the season he did
excellent work, and pitched in many winning
games. He was worked every other day during
the cold weather, and was in fine condition.
The result was that his arm got out of fix. and
he could not do himself justice. He was re-
gaining his strength and getting back in his old
condition, when he was put in against the
Louisvllles and suffered a relapse He was
with Brooklyn last year, and came here with
fine reputation. There were exciting scenes
around the United States Hotel tonight. 1t
was payday. and several of the men found that
they had been fined. The fines ranged from
500 to $50, and the men did not know what
they had been imposed for
Henry Kappell. the third baseman, was fined
so much he did not have enough left to pay his
board, and the other players Clipped in and
helped him out. The players were very indig-
nant, and. 1t is said, in giving vent to their
feelings, some of them said things they should
not have done, and for which they will feel
the worse tomorrow In this connection it is
said that Mr. Cooney Born. the well-known
brewer, is trying TO buy out the entire club.
and that Mic Schlee. another brewer. is anxious
to get half of it. Several of the players went
to Cooney Born tonight and told hin. the
sooner Buckenberger had full control of the
ball. The claim is made that Buck" is man,
ager only in name, and is forced to do things
he knows are unjust against his better judg-
ment. One of the complaints was that while
Manager Buckenberger was in Wheeling last
week, calling on his sweetheart, who is i'll. the
directors met and agreed to lay McTamany of
and put Jack OConnor in center field. The
score card was SO arranged, and the mischief
was to pay. The kick was so great that it was
changed. When Al Mays reported to receive
his pay tonight he found that he had been
fined $780, Bill W,dner, the pitcher found
that he had been fined $l70, and says that il
will be remitted or he will not set foot in the
box to play the Kansas City game tomorrow
Henry Kappell claims the club owes him S65
The directory claims he owes them SIS on fines
ETC., and thus the matter stands. How is it
possible for Columbus to play winning ball
under the circumstances is one of the mys-
teries

rpro1AL TELEGRAM TO THE p1srArcH.,

CLEVELAND, August AFTER the stun
ming results of yesterday there was neces-
sarily lull this afternoon at the finale of
the grand circuit meeting, and though the
events were not so sensational throughout,
several new records were made, notable by
the PAGERS. OF those the famous Johnston
eclipsed all others by his wonderful mile
against time.
1t is six years since Johnston paced in.
2:06Z, and it was not to be expected he
could carry his phenomenal speed for mile
as he could then yet he came as near as possi-
BILE to that performance without equaling it,
and the harness record for Cleveland track now
2:O6k. 1t was well along in the afternoon when
Doble brought out the bay gelding for his trial
against the watch. The track was as good as
ever and the mud had dried up slightly. After
scoring once Johnston was sent along, and the
word sent him off for the mile. The official
timers noted 80 seconds at the first quarter and
the half mile in l0311, slightly faster rate for
| the second quarter. From here Johnston kept
| up his fight, making the third quarter in 80
| seconds. He had now 33 seconds in which to
win. and as Doble urged he increased his pace.
| coming at 204 gait from the third quarter.
| There was great excitement as the peerless
gelding dashed past the wire. having paced the
second fastest mile of his career.
Immediately after the 3year old colt Aller-
ton started to beat his record of 2:23 and after
| making break on the first attempt he went
steadily and made the circuit in 2:20K. Aller-
ton is owned by c. w. Williams, the fortunate
possessor of the valuable Axtell.
| Another extra event was match between
two trotters bred here, each getting records be-
low 2:3O. Goodwink, the winner, comes from
| Forest City farm.
| The regular card was cleared up except the
| 2I7 pace which will be finished in the morning,
| SO that the meeting is virtually over. The 233
class was, expected, an easy victory for Veri-
| tas and Gean Smith had it his own way over
| his single opponent White Stocking in the free
| for ALL though he made a new record for him

Il have never spoken a word to Hewitt. of

him. He has been with the team before, and

Novel Experiment TO be Made With Birds

ROCHESTER. N. Y. August 2-One of the
bookkeepers at Powers Hotel in this city.
during recent trip to England, secured two
genuine English skylarks which he brought to
this country. Many people wanted to hear the
birds sing. but as their solos are only given be-
tween and $50 in the morning. no one had the
enterprise to awake and hear them. The
owner has at last arranged plan by which
their songs can be heard.
The birds are to be placed in a room where a
phonograph is located, and kept there until
they have finished their repertoire Then those
interested will be invited to hear the phono-
graph.

Sullivan claims that he had nothing to do with

Sullivan expects that when Governor Lowry

His Best Form.

His Best Form.
John Newell returned from Cleveland last
night, where he had been enjoying the great
trotting and pacing races. Mr.. Newell had lots
to say about the great success of the meeting,
and remarked that he never saw such crowd
in his life as he did on Thursday at the Cleve-
land track He spoke highly of the quality of
the racing, and stated that there aresome won
ders in the circuit this year. Speaking particu-
larly of the 2:lS class trotting, in which Thorn
less defeated j. b. Richardson. he said:
THE race was a great one, and. doubtless,
Thornless was a flyer that day. Richardson.
however, was not in his best form, because of
lack of work. Splan did not expect to win with
him. but he forced Thornless to a very speedy
mark. Richardson will beat Thornless, be-
cause the former is steadier and will go better
at the future meetings than he went on Thurs
day. Thornless is an irregular horse, and may
not go as well again this season as he went at
