The Fourth District.

The Republican primaries in the Fourth
district passed off without excitement,
and though there was some scratching of
names, but one ticket was circulated in
each precinct.

the voting in accordance with the old
six precinct lines. This is the ticket

Giovanni Iankarino Gets Some Danger
Gus Wounds.

Gus Wounds.
North Hudson has of late been dis
trict prolific in tragedies The latest SEN
of an inoffensiye Italian workman on
the Gutenberg race track by two of his
countrymen yesterday.
Names, especially Italian names, go
for very little at the race track, and it
would puzzle a Philadelphia lawyer to
write and pronounce those of the actors
in North Hudson's recent tragedy
Giovanni Mankarino Tor words to that
efect) was i'll the employ of Contractor
Page at the Gutenberg race track, and
from the opinions expressed of him by
his employer, appears to have been jolly
little fellow
TWO VICIOUS VISITORS.
Late last evening two dark, vicious
looking Italians called at Pages shop, in
Gutenberg, and asked for Mankarino.
The latter came out, and the three men
went through a series of verbal gym
nastics together, which meant, so far as
the uninitiated outsiders could discover.
that Mankarino owed his unwelcome
visitors SIG, and they wanted him to pay
up.
He said he would if they would wait
until he received his months wages.
THE EVER READY sTILLET.
This the Italians would not listen to,
and when Mankarino refused to give
them any other satisfaction, one of them
drew stilleto from his pocket and gave
him vicious cut across the head. Man
karino grappled with his opponent and
yelled for help.
Italian No. 2 then drew revolver and
shot Mankarino through the back. The
fellow workmen of Mankarino were at
tracted by the struggle and ran to his
assistance.
The police captured one of his assail-
ants, but the other managed to elude
them.
Mankarino was removed to st. Mary's
Hospital, where he is now resting quietly
with chance of recovery.
His saSsailant, whose name appears to
be Carnecio, is now in the County Jail
awaiting the result of Mankarino's in
juries.

| have too much regard for many of the
gentlemen connected with the opposition
to the regular Democratic candidates to
characterize them in such opprobrious
terms, yet at the same time believe they
are committing great mistake In array
ing themselves against the nominees of
the party. AT no time within
my recollection has there been
such an exceptionally strong ticket pre-
sented to the Democratic voters of Hud-
son county as the one recently nominated
under the auspices of the regular Demo-
cratic organization, and it should receive
the hearty and earnest support of every
party loving Democrat.

He stole to second at the first opportunity, and

thousands of the visitors were going out of the

the visitors were in the lead, they. began to
clamor for the game to be called, and upon
every decision after that there was a kick.
Umpire Goldsmith kept fning the st. Louis

LONDON. September z.-[Copyright THE
sculling race between the Canadian, O'Connor
and the Australian, Searle, takes place Mon
day afternoon over the championship course
Opinions are divided but Australians are so
confident, and are backing their man SO read
lily, that he has advanced to IL to on him in
the betting Both men are in the prime of con-
dition. Watching the men in their spurrs, it
does not seem that Searle gets away from Neil
Matterson, his trial horse, readily to justify
the odds bet upon him. for Matterson Is not
a sculler Of the champion class, and yet sticks
close to Searle for mile at a time. These
trial shows, however. may be only schemes to
mislead the public. Beach says that Searle is
the best man who ever rowed IN a boat, but
then Beech was somewhat OFF when Searle beat
him. However, Searle made the best time ever
accoE plished over the Parramatta course, and
this point - made much OF Dy his friends.
O'Connor has inspired plenty Of confidence.
and has plenty OF hackers for small amounts.
but Re has not the great monetary following of
his rival. He Is smart in getting away, and the
only doubt expressed about him is that he can
not last the course.
This week Ghitabob has become still better
favorite for the ST. Leger. All the Northern
betters are, ,plling their money on him at 2 to
against. Donovan is backed at to on him,
and there is strong feeling against the horse in
certain quarters, the rumors being that he is
short of work, that he is a roarer and that he
won't face his bit. But that has not affected
his position SO much as the money laid upon
Chitabob and If things turn out as expected a
grand St. Leger race will be the result. The
only other horse backed is Enthusiast, but the
most money is going on him for 2 place.
Howell, the English bicyclist champion, has
this week beaten the mile record doing the
distance in 2minutes 81 1-5 seconds which is an
advance of 3-5 of a second upon the previous
record. Hitherto the holder of the mile record
has nearly always been an amateur.

SOME GREAT PLAYING.
Homestead and AIcKeesport Have n 10.
Inning Tie Game.

Homestead and McKeesport Have To-
Inning Tie Game.
A County League game Of exciting interest
was played at Homestead yesterday afternoon
between the McKeesport and Homestead clubs.
Unusual interest conferred in the outcome of
this game by reason of the fact that the Nc
Keesport and Athletic clubs are a tie in the
race for the league championship pennant
and the losing of this game by the McKeesport
club meant for them the loss OF the champion
ship and penLant. The Homestead club is
particularly strong at present, and Is now
making winning record. Manager Torrey-
son, knowing the situation, strengthened his
team by engaging the Greensburg battery,
Thompson and Liston, for the occasion. The
game started out by the Homesteads scoring
three runs in the first inning. The McKees-
port club evened the score up in the third,
after which goose eggs were recorded in the
remaining innings on both sides. As inning
after inning was played without additional
and the clubs put forth their best
efforts to win. Ten innings were played, and
the score being tie and darkness coming on.
the umpire called the game. The features of
the game were line catch and high throw
catch from third by Bulmer, q fine catch at
second by Youngman, who ran in from short
STOP and q magnificent running catch with one
hand by Province in right field. The battery
work on both sides was par excellence. But
ing.
Alarge audience was present. among whom
were Al G. Pratt and many players of the Ath-
letics and Braddock mines. The game will be
played out on the Homestead grounds Septem-

The Local Race Meeting.

The public is already aware of the approaching
race meeting to be held at Exposition Park during
the latter part of this month. lhad given up all
hope of seeing any race meeting at all worthy the
name in Pittsburg this year, but am happy to be
disappoipted-not by any of the good wishes of
those who have and are still trying to entirely
prevent everything of an honorable sporting
kind. The happy disappointment has been caused
by the plucky enterprise of those who are con-
thev have decided to hold four days meeting,
and the purses and classes are such that will at
tract good supply of entries. True, we may not
expect to see S2OO-purse attract the best horses
in the country, but purse of that amount ought
to secure the presence of a very good class of
competitors. But one cannot talk about Pitts
burg and horse racing without thinking
of the extremely misguided actions of
few people who, prompted by anything
except the betterment Of the moral surroundings
stopped frst-class horse racing here. Nobody who
had moral improvement in view would have been
instrumental in stopping public race meeting of
a high order. OF course / am aware that lit was
the hetting'' that the ultra good people assailed,
but this is Just where the mistake was made. BE-
fore we had frst-class horse races and betting,
and now have betting and no races, But we
not only have betting, but of a worse character
than It otherwise would be If the regulations of
the various associations were surrounding It, The
stopping of races, or the prohibition of the pool
box on public race track, has never and never
will stop betting. Like the poor, the bettors we
bling; not at all. 1t is only the state
ment of fact that is centuries old, VIZ,
that clandestine betting is a much greater source
of evil than investingin pooi box on public
race So far this season Pittsburg has been
deprived of seeing some of the best pacing and
trotting horses ever seen in this country. Doubt
less, had things been as they used to be, some of
these flyers would have been here displaying their
speed ere now. All other big cities are enjoying
the good business results of rst-class race meet
ing exceptPittsburg.

cluded to try the double umpire system tor a

II do not want to be hasty in what say"
said he, "but will say that will have good
story to give out soon. We have been knocked
about long enough, and there are lively times
ahead. One thing 1 will say, and that is the
Brooklyn club will have to play that forfeited
game with the Columbus club on June "a.
That was the game which Umpire Paesh gave
to the Brooklyns. have in my pocket sworn
statement made by the manager Of the Column
bus club which shows that the Brooklyns were
in the wrong, and this as well as several games
may have to be thrown out. One thing l will
say, and that is if the Association race Is any
way close, there will be a meeting Of the Asso-
ciation called before the season ends. This
will be done to decide the protested games.
Then, too. l have little business in regard to
the umpires."
1T is understood that you have evidence
with regard to certain manager trying to IN
fiuence an umpire with money~ remarked the

the word of the umpire himself. He told the
story in my presence"

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.1
CINcENATI, September lit is a fact that
Cincinnati is after Sweeny, and Ted Sullivan is
trying his persuasive powers on the boy re-
jected b! both the Senators and the champions.
President Stern says:
'If 1 could secure SweenyI would play him
at first base and put Reilly in the field. As to
releasing Carpenter, Cincinnati has no inten-
tion of doing anything like that, and Nicol will
also be reserved for next season. / see a state
ment credited to Nicol to the effect that he
hopes he will not be asked to continue to play
in Cincinnati. If Nicol doesn't want to play
in Cincinnati he will have to buy his own re-
lease, or some club will have to buy it. would
sell his release for 900 to any club that wants
him, or to himself"
Some of the five pitchers will have to CO. and
to man up tree it looks as if the whole lot
was ineffective under the present method OF
working them. The news of Cincinnati's de-
feat at the hands of an Atlantic Association
team has made all the cranks here throw up
their hands in mock horror.

Betting Has Commenced on the Event With
Odds on Gaudaur.

sMoKEEsPoRT, Pa, September z-Bettlng
on the Teemer- Gaudaur race has commenced.
Teemer money is plentiful and even bets are
asked. Very little Gaudaur money has been

to-day and his money was grabbed up very
quickly. There are plenty of men who want
even bets on Teemer and will soon be
offering odds. Gaudaur vas ou5 on
the course this morning, but did not go out
this afternoon, as he was in Pittsburg getting
his boat Teemers old boat weighs 30 pounds.
and he says thar If the new boat does not come
in time he will row the race in the old one.
Teemer stripped at liz pounds this afternoon.
and stayed on the river an hour. He has ter
rible staying power, and shows great prowess
and endurance in making the old boat ply
through the water when returning after
long and trying pull over the course.
Gaudaur does not believe in the walking. He
says that to row boat a man must be In the
boat and row, and that is the only kind OF
training he wants and that he ever takes.
When Gaudaur pulls along the Monongahela
river hundreds of people follow the st. Louis

Reports tonight received by Teemer state
that big delegation will come from Baltimore,
Washington and New York to see the race.

Dirty Ball Playing.

During the latter part Of this baseball seseon,
aS far az it has gone there has been something
like . remarkable increase Of what is termed

some Of the most prominent players in the
League. Back Ewing and Fred Pfeffer have
been extremely conspicuous In what Is nothing
