WASHINGTON, October 24.-A deal of
curiosity has been manifested in regard to
the cause of the boom for the Rev. John
Chester, D. D., of the Metropolitan Presby-
terian Church, of this city. for the position
of Chaplain of the House for the Fifty-frst
Congress. 1t almost leads in conspicuous
ness the booms for the various candidates for
Speaker, and certainly excels any of them
in peculiar features.
1t seems that DR.. Chester is a regular con-
tributor to the Christian at Work, a we'll
known religious publication, and in that
paper his semi-religious articles on the tariff
question caught the eye of the great and
good Elliott F. Shepard, proprietor of the
Mail and Express. Mr.. Shepard and the
Doctor became quite intimate. They fre-
quented the Republican headquarters, and
conferred with Senator Quay in regard to
the religious end of the campaign.
At the suggestion of Senator Quay, DR..
Chester wrote an article entitled ''The
Moral Issues of the Tariff" 1t was pub
lished in the Mail and Express, which on
that morning was further adorned by Mr..
Shepard with appropriate scriptural
texts, also bearing on the tariff
question. The article "caught on" 1t
was printed in the form of tract and dis
tributed by hundreds of thousands in coun-
try towns and rural districts 1t had a
great effect in keeping the temperance peo-
pie and other moralists sound on the tariff
goose.
One day Mr.. Shepard slyly mentioned
to Senator Quay that Chester would make
good Chaplain for the House, and Senator
Quay slyly passed the word around to the
Republican leagues, which now tumble
over one another to indorse Chester.
Never was such interest taken be-
fore in the election of a Chaplain.
At least this is the story told to the cores
pondent of The DISPATCH this evening
by member of the New York Republican
Association. When asked what the associ-
alton was going to do at its meeting to-
morrow evening, the gentleman said: "Oh,
we'll indorse Chester for Chaplain" and
then followed the foregoing little tale.

HOPPER KNOCKS OUT HANLEY,
But the Latter's Friends Claim the Fight
Wasn't Fairly Decided.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.I
BUFFALO, October M.-The much talked-of
glove fight between Jack Hanley, of Buffalo,
and Jack Hopper, of New York, was fought to-
night in the rooms of the Buffalo Athletic Club,
and had an unsatisfactory termination. The
betting was in favor of Hopper, about to 8,
and the prospects were for great con-
test. The advertised conditions were that
the winner should get s400 of a purse
of $500 that "a rounds should be fought with
two-ounce gloves, but that it really should be
to finish, the limit having been announced to
avoid police interference. Hopper weighed
l60 pounds, and the Buffalo man two pounds
lighter. E. F. Green was referee. Hanley was
seconded by Billy Baker and James Wilson, two
local sluggers, and Hopper was cared for by
Frank Costello and Bunk Rowland, of New
York. The men entered the ring at $50 and
fought tamely at the start, with Hanley doing
most of the aggressive work.
Blood was not drawn until the twelfth round,
when Hanley tapped Hopper on the nose.
Light work was continued until the twenty
third round, when Hanley knocked his antag-
onist under the ropes. The twenty-fourth was
gamely contested. and Hanley's seconds
claimed it on foul They said that back cut
had been given during clinch. The foul was
not allowed, and the fight proceeded. In the
twenty-sixth round Hopper struck Hanley
savage blow in the neck, which rendered that
pugilist helpless and ended the fight. Hanley's
friends are very sore and talk about appealing
from the referees decision. The time was
hour and 49 minutes.

burgs for Phillips Benefit.
Though there were not more than l20 people
present at yesterdays ball game at Recreation
Park for the benefit of ex-Manager Phillips,
there was plenty of fun. The weather was
chilly, but clear and bright and the contest
was one that kept the little crowd deeply in
terested from first TO last.
The game was between the Pittsburg club
and a picked nine. The latter were composed
of players from the International, Michigan,
Tri-State and Allegheny County Leagues.
They played tolerably well: at any rate, they
won, There was nothing like good
playing at any stage of the game.
The players were there as a mark of es-
TEEN for the genial and generous ex-manager
who is now surrounded by misfortunes. 1t is a
pity that The affair was not more successful,
but it was evidently hurried too much.
Arrangements for a benefit of the kind
ago. However, somewhere about 500
will be realized from the game. The
Great Western Band was on hand, and played
several excellent selections of music.
The composition of the Pittsburg nine was
somewhat amusing as Morris, Conway and
Calvin constituted the out6eld. The Old
Sports daring, though unsuccessful, efforts to
catch fly balls that happened his way were
feature of the game. 1t looked as if there was
a conspiracy between Staley and the
Galvin's territory Hanlon played short, and
did very well, indeed. Staley started
to pitch but was relieved by Calvin at the end
of the fifth inning. Before leaving the box Sta
ley gave his three brilliant outfielders plenty to
do as they were kept running all over the lot.
Morris and Tener also had a try in the box.
The picked men made ten hits of Staley, six of
them being made in the fifth inning; two were
made OFF Tener and two off Morris.
Steve Toole pitched well for the picked men
and Miller, of the Canton club really did ex-
cellent work in center field. He is promising
PLAYER. There was no catcher's mask and con-
sequently the catcher had to stand back from
the batter. This prevented base stealing and
passed balls. The fielding on both sides was
shaky, most of the runs being the result of
errors. In the fifth inning, after the side
should have been retired, four good hits and
four runs were made by the picked nine. Dur
ing the game it was seen that Conways arm is
still sadly out of condition as he could not get it
above his shoulder when throwing the ball.
Following is the score:

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM To THE DIsPATcH.l
WASHINGTON, October A-The illness
of Judge Cooley, Chairman of the Inter-
State Commerce Commission, causes con-
siderable embarrassment, not only to his
colleagues on the commission, but to the
politicians who have been compelled
to consider him a factor in making
their calculations as to the Supreme Court
Judgeship. 1t is no secret here that Presi-
dent Harrison has for some time past had
his eye on Judge Cooley as just the man
to become Judge Stanley Matthews sue
cessor. Whenever this has been hinted to
Judge Cooley he has said that he
was not an applicant, and that he
preferred his present place. Men who have
been acquainted with the Judge for years,
however, know that his ambition has al
ways been to sit upon the bench of the Su-
preme Court, and these friends are author
ity now for the statement that the Judge
realizes that he must not delay much longer
if he desires to win.
President Harrison will have other oppor-
tunities, it is true, to select men for the Su-
preme Bench, but Mr.. Cooley is beginning
to feel the effects of age and in
trinity, and it is not the policy of
the President to appoint very old
men to these coveted places. Judge
Cooley's illness, while not regarded as dan
gerous by his friends, Is nevertheless the
cause for considerable alarm. Reports are
sent out from his home in AEn Arbor.
Mich, that he is better and will be out again
soon

President OF the St. Louis Baseball Club. of the

conference yesterday with President Spaldine.
of the Chicago club, which is a member of the

ferred to the proposed Independent move of
the Brotherhood of Baseball Players. After
the conference Mr.. Won der Abe said to a re-
porter:
The Association will have to stand by the
League. do not speak officially as President
OF the Association, but believe that is the in
vitable outcome of the fight. 1t is a question
capital against labor. and capital must stick
capital The Brotherhood must think it
command capital on its side but it will get
on that point. To mention nothing else.
e are not six men in the whole Brotherhood
40 will have an ounce of business brains
They are good ball players, but can't manage.
They can't even take care of the salaries they
are now getting. And capitalists are not going
TO trust their money in such hands; and right
mere let me emphasize the fact that it takes
capital, and big capital, to run the ball business
This is certain A. g. Spalding is the only in
stance in the history Of the game of a ball play
er developing into successful manager John
ny Ward thinks he can manage. Johnny also
thinks himself lawyer. Why doesn't he prac-
tice law, then? Simply because he is a ball
player-nothing more-and couldn't make
enough money at law in year to pay a weeks

BROOKLYN, October 24-Crane, the
South Boston boy, proved terror to the
Brooklyn boys to-day. He did the best
pitching there has been seen in the series
and kept his opponents guessing all the
time as to where be would send the ball.
He showed great Improvement in his conf
mand of the ball. The score card gave the
names of Keefe or O'Day as the pitchers,
but it was a wise thing TO substitute Crane.
Some felt little nervous when they saw
Brown 90 behind the bat in place of Ewing,
who was obliged to lay off on account Of a bad
finger and the cold weather, but the score
shows how well he fitted the shoes of the big
captain He made
SOME EXCELLENT STOPS
of wide pitched balls and he batted terriically.
In fact the New TOrks batted Caruthers un-
mercifully, sending the ball in every direction,
including double, two triples and three home
runs. The weather was again cold, but not SO
windy as the day before and the attendance
was 2,9Ol. The Brooklyn outfelders had plenty
of chasing to do and had ample opportunity to
keep warm. Cranes stick work alone was al
most enough to win the game He hit in old
Union style. Whitney and Richardson both
did telling stick work and they felded superb
ly. In fact both clubs put up great game
when the trying conditions were considered.
BOBBY WAS A MARK.
Caruthers struck out but one New Yorker,
while Crane struck out seven. As in previous
games the Brooklyns showed themselves to be
great walters, trying hard to get bases on balls,
while the New Workers hit as soon as they had
the chance. 1t was a splendid contest to wit
ness being full of such fine hitting. The Brook
lyns had plenty of chances to score, as the ten
men left on bases showed clearly. but the timely
hits were lacking. Notably was this the case
in the sixth, when there were men on third and
second. with one out, and no run was scored,
with such hitters as O'Brien and Collins to the
bat. The game was finely umplred by Lynch
and Gaffney, and showed that
