New York Yesterday.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE prspArcHa
NEW YORK, July 1.-THE Pittsburg (P. L)
club came here to-day minus the services of
Mansger-Captain Hanlon, but it is doubtful
whether if that gentleman had been present he
could have stemmed the tide Of defeat 1t was
a cleverly played game throughout. The whole
secret Of Pitts5urg's defeat was the fact that
Tim Keefe was in the box. He didn't have his
old backstop to support him, but no one could
have done better than Vaughn. Therefore he
was in his glory. The visitors just managed to
bat out four hits and they got to first five times
on balls. In the fifth inning, with two men out,
Carroll came to bat The Pittsburger is good
man at all times at the bat and the cranks
feared he would clean the bases, but the in
viucihle Tim finally struck him out Attend

FREE COINAGE OR NOTHING

The INDEPENDENT stands in on
the proposition to elect no man to
Congress who will not pledge himself
to favor the free coinage of silver
under any and all circumstances.
We want no compromise on the silver
question. No so-called ''steps in the
right direction" If our representa-
tives to the National Legislature are
the friends Of silver, let them support
a free coinage bill or nothing, If we
cannot have free coinage at the present
session, let the present law stand I'M
til the people of the United States
can elect men who will right the
wrong perpetrated upon the American
people in 1873.
There should be no halfway legis-
lation which, while ostensibly in the
interests of the white metal, has for
it's object the total destruction OF sill
yer as money. Anything except free
coinage, pure and simple, is more
liable to be a step backward than an
improvement on the law now in force.
Let the present law stand until we
can get what we demand; and when
hereafter a man offers himself as u
candidate for Congress, let us not
ask HE politics but rather how he
stands on the silver question.
The INDEPENDENT will support a
man who is n true friend of silver,
without regard to his polit les; one
who will neither be bound by caucus
nominations when they conflict with
the interests of his constituents, nor
favor any compromise with the
enemy.
