BURLHSQUE BASEBALL.
The Jersey Citys Beaten by
a Commercial Nine.
WEAK PITCHING AND FIELDING.
Three Hours Torture for Three
Hundred spectators---Palma'
Tourney.


Three hundred people shivered at Oak
land Park for three hours yesterday aud
saw about as blue-mouldy baseball as was
ever put up on the grounds. The players
we're NOT wholly at fault.
The weather was not suitable for skill
full play, and the grounds are not in con-
dition: they are not dry. The trouble
lies with the eagerness OF the hackers of
the clubs in forcing them out to play be-
fore the winter has closed.
The Jersey Citys had as their rivals the
cfsck commercial team of Hackett- Car
bart. The latter were in luck and al
though they had fewer base hits and
more errors than the Jersey Citys they
succeeded in winning the rocky game.
The Jerseys went to bat first aud made
an unearned run. Weeeler twirled for
the Jerseys. The Hacket1s cracked him
iii the first inning for three singles and O
double aud scored runs. They made
three hits, and ON 2 errors by Wheeler
and q base on balls they got home four
men in the fourth inning.
Fitzgerald then retired Wheeler In
the sixth inning the Hacketts got seven
runs in, 1t was on wretched fielding and
four hits. Four clear errors were made,
and the fielding was very ragged. The
Jerseys were ratified.
The Jerseys could not bunch their hits
nor would the Hackerts bunch their
errors, Keay and Brady put up d fair
game. The score tells the story

BRIDGGrVS's POSTMASTER.
Many Protests Against Ex-senator
Nichols Confirmation.

Many Protests Against Ex-senator
Nichols Confirmation.
Special 10 the snndag Morning. Mems
WASHINGTON. April 5, 1e90--It is ex-
tremely probable that the nomination Of
ex-senator Isaac 7. Nichols for post
master OF Bridgeton will be hung up in
the Finance Committee of the Senate
along with chat of Moffett for Internal
Revenue Collector aud ex-Chairman
H0bart'S man for postmaster of Wash
ington. Both of these nominations are
resting quietly IN the vest pocket of Sen
ator MCPHERSON, to whom the New Jer-
sey appointments are referred. he being
a member OF the Finance Committee
III looks very much as though there has
been some sharp practice In connection
with Nichols appointment. The present
Democratic incumbent is Samuel A.
l.aning, who was appointed by President
Cleveland on March g. 1887. and his four
years term will not expire until March 3,
1891 In October last committee Of busi-
ness men belonging TO both parties came
to Washington expressly to insist that
Mr.. Lauiug should be permitted to serve
out his term. as he has made an ex-
tremely popular and efficient postm aster,
The committee saw Mr.. Wanamaker who
gave them the most positive assurance
that Baning should not be disturbed as
long as he did his dRty and there were no
complaints.
The committee went away entirely sat
fsfied that the Postmaster General meant
Just what he said. Postal Inspector Eyer
ton subsequently gave the Office thor
ough overhauling and made the report
that he found no cause for Laning's re-
mOvai, except Tor the reason that he was
a Democrat. IL had transpired that Mich
OILS appointment was made during the
absense of Mr.. Wanarnaker, and that il
al
from the White House. 1t is also said
that IL was one of the favors which Gen
eral Sewell incidentally asked of Presi-
dent Harrison while the latter was his
guest down in Maryland two weeks ago
duck shooting II can be stated with
authority that Congressman Bergen, in
whose district the office Is located, didn't
know that the appointment had
been made for two days after, although
he knew Nichols was eventually 10 &c,

HANDSOME CHARLEY DID 1T.
The Man Who Preoipitated the Attack on
Fort sumter.

If il had not been for Handsome Char
ley there might not have been any war
between the North and the South. How
so? A many and many year ago In
city by the sea Handsome Charley went
to what Hamlet called that undiscovered
country from whose bourne no traveller
returns, although traveller had re-
turned and had talked to Hdmletin very
excellent blank verse only few nights
before.
Who, then. was Handsome Charley?
He was for a great many years, IN the
good old times, and in some respects
perhaps the bad old times, generally
spoken of as ''befo the wah," resident
of Chareeton, South Carolina. Charley
used to say of himself: II am an Irish
man by birth, an American by adoption,
talented by chance, and no coward, by
JasuS." So far from being coward
Charley was as brave as a bulldog, and
was very great fighter when it was his
cue TO fight, but he always helped the
weaker party, and in Charleston, where
the people are noted for warmhearted-
ness, there was not warmer hearted
nor a more charitable man than hand
some Charley. But why was he called
handsome? Was he really a handsome
man? Oh, no: not at all. Not by no
means, as the Artful Dodger would have
remarked.
In a trial for murder in Charleston,
about forty years ago, Isaac Is. Hayne
was attorney Glneral, and Richard Yea
don. a lawyer of high standing and also
editor of the Charleston Courier, repre-
septed the prisoner. Col. Hayne, be-
ing lawyer and 4 brave man, was re-
markablv handsome, while Yeadon was
not gifted in form or feature. Charley
was witness, and Yeadon examined
him thus:
Yeadon-What is your name?
Charley-Charley Farley, better
known as Handsome Charley.
Yeadon-Why are you called LAND
some Charley? -,
Charley-I'll answer that if you will
tell me why you are called Limping
Dick.
Yeadon-eertainly My name is
Richard and they call me Dick. and as |
am little lame they call me Limping
Dick.
Carbohydrates fair and square. Now

length Of time. The opening of stock mar
ket was made at higher prices, but the
buying movement had no life and the
bears and traders were soon enabled
by severe pressure of shorts con-
centrated at certain points in the list
10 change the temper of the speculation,
and after the first few minutes dealings
weakness was the ruling feature in the
market until the final half hour, when the
covering of shorts put out at higher prices
gave some support to the list and caused 4
slight reaction from the lowest of the
day. The failures of the companies to ad-
vance the prices of coal was used against
the coal stocks as virtual reduction and
only Lackawanna and Jersey Central felt
the pressure to any extent. The close was
quiet and fairly steady at slight reaction
