GIANTS FIVE POINTS BEHIND.
They ars Defeated by Pittsburg With
 Wclch in the Box,

Only Four More Games to Tlay-Philadel-
 phla Takes Third Place and Pittsburg
 Fifth St. Louis and Athletics Roth Win
 Gaine-Stnnsling of League and Asso-
 ctntion Clubs.
 PIrTsBURG, Oct. 2.-The champions have taken back scat, for short time at least, in the desperate struggle for the championship. The players feel 1t sorely, but have not yet given up hope A slight turn of good fortune may still help them cut, and they have certainly earned glcam of sunshine by their long spell of ill-luck. The widespread inter- est which is felt in the battle was shown here last night by the big crowd that gathered in the Anderson billiard room after tho local game was over and eagerly watched the bulletin board for tidings of the unfinished Cleveland game.
 The Giants dump into the consomme did not utterly overwholm their sup porters and bots were still made by New Workers that their favorites would wind up Saturday in the load.
 The Giants hit the ball much harder yesterday than the local club, but there seemed always to he a fielder in the right sppt while the wind took especial delight in helping to rob Ewing of some long hits.

POLICE BOARD MEETING.

A Statement From Chief Egnn In
 Regard to Liquor Prosecutions.
 At the monthly meeting of the police commissioners held last evening a com- munication was received from the chief of police regarding liquor prosecutions. It was as follows:
 ''In view of the vote passed at the last meeting of your honorable board, I deem it but just to myself and the mem- bers of the force to submit for your con- sideration the following statement i: The total number of complaints issued for violation of the license law and screen law from January 1 to Septem- Der, 1889, was 113. The total number of complaints made by the police during the same time and included in the above was g. Of the g cases brought on complaint of the police 15 were settled before court upon the payment of sums ranging from S15 to $40, five were fined and appealed to the superior court and ? were nolled. The ? cases nolled were l brought for violation of the screen law August 3, and were nolled not because of lack of evidence to convict, but be- cause the prosecuting agent concluded | not to prosecute any saloon keeper who had compiled with the law within three days after it went into effect"
 Accompanying the communication was a list of cases brought on complaint of the police from January to Septem- Der 1 and the disposition of each case. | The board accepted the communica- tion.

MCCARTHY DISCHARGED. Charles A. Briggs Fined for Shoot
 ing Unon Private Property.

ing Upon Private Property.
 The case against Janitor James Mccarthy, of St Mary's parochial school, charged with assaulting the young son of Thomas F. Lunny, was concluded before Judge Bradstreet this morning. Frank Pagan, John Dillon and John Green, pupils at the school, testified that cCarthy did not throw the Lunny boy down and that the boy came up to them laughing after Mccarthy had taken hold of his ear. Town Clerk White and Officers Root and Sullivan said they had known Mccarthy for many years and that he was a kind peaceful man. Judge Bradstreet suspended judgment. George Hanley while drunk yester- day morning raised disturbance in the corridor of the City hall. He was ar rested by Special Officer Charles Egan, and was this morning fined S1 and costs for drunkenness and the same for breach of the peace. James Shanahan received like sentence for creating disturbance and using obscene language while lntox- icated last night.
 Porter L. Wood conducted the prose- cution in the case against Charles A. Briggs, charged with hunting upon pri- vate property and out of season. The complainant was Fred Wheeler, who has charge of the Payne farm in the southwestern part of the town. Wheeler and his hired man swore that Briggs was upon the property last Friday morning with dog and gun and fired into the bush, presumably at game. In his defense Briggs said that he fired at a bluejay while standing in his own yard. The bird fell into the bush upon the Payne property and the grass being wet he called his dog to go after the bird, which he wished to have mounted as a specimen. Judge Bradstreet after hearing the evidence said that under section 2,532 of the general statutes, which provides that ''any person found with bird dog and gun upon lands where quail, partridge, etc, are known to exist, shall be deemed prima facie evidence to be there for the purpose of pursuing said birds with intent to kill and may be arrested by the owner of such lands" he was obliged to find the accused guilty, and would impose Q nominal fine of $5. An appeal was taken. Attorney Lowe, who appeared for MT Briggs, claimed that the con- plaint was prompted by malice, Wheeler and Briggs having had trouble over a potato patch which they were working on shares.

HE SHOT TO KILL.
A Negro Desperate Shoots Woman
 In tho Breast.

In tho Breast.
 Christopher Miller, notorious negro character, who spends most of his time in Middlebury when not in jail, shot and probably fatally wounded Annie Woods, a young colored woman, at the house of Richard Harrison, with whom she lived on the Watertown road, short ly after 9 o'clock last night. No cause can be assigned for the act except that Miller was in liquor and is naturally of a brutal disposition. After shooting the woman Miller turned upon Harrison, but the latter wrenched the rev, lver from the murderer after second bullet had crashed through the roof. Miller then escaped and took to the woods. Dr North was at once summoned and rendered the woman as comfortable as possible, but was unable to find the bull let. The wound was in the left breast near the heart and was made by bullet of 32 calibre. The woman did not suf- fer much from the shock and was able to be removed to the house of friends on French street. Whether the injury will terminate fatally cannot yet be deter mined. Officer Ahearn went to the scene of the crime. but was unable to obtain any trace of Miller. The authorities in the surrounding towns have been notified and the capture of the desperado is hourly expected.
 Annie Woods, the injured woman, says that yesterday afternoon while in liquor Miller called upon her and when she rejected his proposals Miller dis played a revolver. She was frightened, but succeeded in quieting the fellow and sent him away. Last evening when Harrison and Miss Woods returned from town they found Miller in a drunk en sleep on their doorstep. When awakened he was quarrelsome and with out cause drew his revolver and shot the woman in the breast.
 Miller is about B years of age, five feet in height and of slight build:
 HARRISON SHOT ALSO.
 This morning Harrison discovered that he also had been shot. The bullet entered the forearm and is imbedded in the muscles near the elbow: The wound is not dangerous one.
