HOosier Player.
Negotiations that nave been pending for
some time between the local management
and that of the Philadelphia for the pur-
chase of the release of center-fielder Ed
ward Andrews were yesterday concluded
bv his transfer to The Hoosier team. He is
now on his way to Indianapolis. and will
replace Sullivan in center field in Mon
days game. 1t is thought that while Sulli-
van is a winning ball-player, Andrews will
be a better man for the Hoosier team, and
will add strength to the club. He is a
brilliant fielder, a good batter and a re-
markably fine b~ase-runner. He is,
in short, what is commonly called
is probably as fast and successful in
-base-running as any one in the League, and
is besides a man of excellent judgment on
the lines. With all due respect to Mana
ger Glasscock. it may be said that the
Hoosier captain will have to look to his
laurels as a base-stealer when Andrews
Joins the team. The new man is not only
a frst-class ball-player, but one of the most
gentlemanly players in the profession. He
is a man OF excellent habits, and would be
n credit to any ball club in the country.
He has not been playing with the Phila-
delphia team, because of some personal
difficulty, it is said, with the management.
He has been anxious to play ball
all season, and when the present deal
was first mentioned he expressed
a strong desire to come to Indianapolis.
What the management paid for his release
is not known. but 1t was a good round sum.
What disposition will be made of Sullivan
cannot be stated. He has been a good man
for the home team and has many friends
who will regret TO see him leave the club.
The local club has been carrying so many
men during the past few weeks, that Man
how TO use them and as q result he finally
many, aud accordingly gave George Myers
his unconditional release yesterday. This
move has not been unexpected since the
signing of Sommers, the impression prevail
ing that the latter is a better man than
the former. Myers has been identified
with the Indianapolis club since it first
went into the League, and has been a hard
working, faithful player. He has made
many friends through his gentlemanly de-
pertinent and good habits, who will regret
TO see him go. What he will do is not
known, but he will probably 90 to his nome
in Buffalo, where he has considerable prop
erty. 1t is likely, however. that he Will
not be out of d position q great while,
though he may not be able to the
salary that the Indianapolis club paid him.
1t is understood, also, that the manage
ment is reaching out for another pitcher,
and has one in view. but Manager Glass
cock refuses TO name the man.

Judge David Josiah Brewer was

Brewer, was at the time of his birth
and for three years after missionary
to the Greeks in Turkey. His mother,
Emilia A. Brewer, was sister of
United States Supreme Judge Steph-
on J. Field, David Dudley Field and
Cyrus w. Field OF the distinguished
New York family. In early life the
Judge was sent to the public school
and began his college education ut an
early age in Wesleyan University ut
Middleton, Conn, but subsequently
entered the junior class ut Yale col
lcge, from which he graduated with
high honors in 1856. He completed
his studies at the Albany Law School
from which he graduated in 1858
He then went West, spent q few
months in Kansas City, and then
journeyed overland to Pixies Peak

THE CRoNIN TRIAL.
Verdict of the Jury.

A dispatch dated Chicago, Dec. 16,
gives the particulars OF the result Of
the Cronin trial and the verdict Of
the jury which was as follows:
1--WE, the jury, find the defendant,
John F. Beggs, not guilty.
I'VE, the jury, find the defendant,
John Kunze, guilty Of manslaughter
as charged in the indictment, and fix
his punishment at imprisonment in
the penitentiary for the term Of three
years.
1--WE, the jury, find the defendants,
Daniel Coughlin, Patrick O'Sullivan
e and Martin Burke, guilty of murder
in manner and form us charged in the
indictment, and fix the penalty at i'm
prisonment in the penitentiary for the
term Of their natural lives"
At the request Of the defense the
jury was then polled and reaftirmed
the verdict.
Sim ltaneous with the announce
ment Of the verdict Coughlin, O'Sulli-
van and Burke turned deathly pale,
while Kunzo started suddenly from
his seat and moment later dropped
his head upon his breast and burst
into tears.
1t was not until afternoon that the
jury finally came to verdict, ard
then it was that Juror Culver, who
had been voting for acquittal for all
the defendants since the jury went
out, consented to compromise. The
other jurors were for hanging Burke,
'Coughlin and O'Sullivan, while he
was for letting them all off. Culver
finally agreed to u life sentence for
tho three. The jury was practically
unanimous on the subject of Beggs
acquittal, and but little time was
needed to fix Kunze's term.
