CHICAGO, Aug. l4.-This was another
wild and worrisome day in the wheat
pit on the board Of trade. Prices went
up and down over very wide range
without any apparently sufficient
cause, and both bulls and bears were
alternately on the gridiron, though the
advocates of higher prices had the best
of the situation and improved their OPP
portunities to the extent of ultimately
carrying prices to point AGE above
the closing figures yesterday, and the
close was &c higher. The bulls pre-
dicted 81 wheat and their prediction
was finally verified. This occurred
close to the end of the session. 1t was
the elimination of a rapid advance Of
2.c. No effort was made to put it
higher. and it was doubtless put to that
figure for it's moral effect.

Some Of the directors think the amount
of the insurance will be even greater

prospective exhibitors who want to

Like the seaside girl" it's a flirt;

In the midst of summers squall.

Its patrons may feel very fine;

The Nationals and Columbus played two
interesting contest yesterday afternoon, and
despite the unfavorable condition of the
weather something like $500 people were
within the enclosure and witnessed the games.
The grounds were soft and slippery from the
heavy rains of Friday night. The out-fielders
in places were nearly ankle deep in the soft,
clingey yellow mud that is plentiful on the
lot. 1t was marvellous how well the men
played under the circumstances. During the
last game there were several interesting argu-
ments between Umpire Kerins and Captain
Crooks, of the Columbus, and as the burden
of responsibility was with the umpire, Captain
Crooks will find his salary curtailed about
$50 on the next payday. He is very disa-
greeable man when he gets aroused and he
acts in the ugliest sort of ways His antics
amused the bleachels considerably and they
were not long in giving him the benefit of
their feelings.
In the opening game the home team pre-
sented Cassain, the new pitcher from Phila-
delphia, and the 'snew find" acquitted himself
in a most masterly way. He showed that
with a little seasoning he will make one of
the best pitchers the team has, he has lots
of speed, has the curves down to nicely ana
barring little nervousness IN the laSC nail OIL
the game, was all that could be expected. He
is besides. a free hitter and yesterday hit the
ball when it was needed. The game opened
mp auspiciously for the home team as they
took kindly to the drops of the Western Her
cules, Gastright, and when the smoke of bat
tie had cleared up it was seen that four red
legged, mud-spattered Senators had crossed
ahe rubber safely. This was bracer and then
the local men went to work and by the time
the fifth inning closed the score was Ii
TO . in favor of the Nationals. The men
played as If they were on springs, and were
boldly and bare-facedly robbing the Columbus
batsmen of what looked to be safe hits. Dowd
particularly distinguished himself, as he
made some wonderful plays at second.
In the first inning Sneed struck high fly
over first base and Dowd made wonderful run,
caught it on side jump, and turning cut off
O'Rourke at second base. 1t was clever
piece of ball playing and it set the boys on
the bleechers in great glee. The fielding of
Hatfield was also of the best order, white old
time Alyord at third was attending to every
dIing in his department like real star player.
In the batting end of the string, Lawrence
Patrick Murphy was doing the best work,
while Cassain and Mcclure were not far be-
hind. For the visitors Dufie carried off the
lauIels, and Wheelock made holy show of
himself, as out of nine chances he made fail
ures of five Crooks put up strong game,
as also did Jimmy Donnelly's successor at
third, O'Rourke. The star play of the game
was line catch Of a hot ball by Gastrght
from Alvord's bat. The score Of the game
was as follows:
