san FRANCISCO, June 22.-Capt. F. B.
NesnIth arrived in this city after a
stay Of eight months in Chill. He was
an eye witness OF the naval battle be-
tween the insurgent cruiser Blsnco
Encalad o and the government torpedo
boats AlmIrante Condell and Almirante
Lynch. He was on board the English
schooner Sophie May, which was an
chored 500 yards from the Encalado,
and thus obtained good view of
the fight. The government
vessels entered the harbor OF
Coldero where the Encalado
was at anchor early on the morning OF
April %. When within 200 yards of
the insurgent ship the Condell fired two
torpedoes, but both missed. The
Lynch then fired two torpedoes al
distance of 100 yards, which also
went wide of the mark. For
nearly an hour the vessels kept
up an incessant cannonade with
out using any more torpedoes, and
the government vessel got the worst OF
1t. During the fight the insurgent
transport Aconcagua entered the har-
bor and joined in the fight. 1t looked
as If the two torpedo boats would be
defeated, when finally the Lynch made
rush for the Encalada. When forty
yards distant she fired n torpedo which
struck the insurgent ship amidships.
A terrible explosion followed and
the Encalado Immediately began TO
sink, but her guns kept on firing and
one of the last shots demolished the
Lynch's smoke-stack. At least five or
six shots were fired from the vessel
after the torpedo struck her. The Of
iicers attempted TO get out the boats,
but In five minutes the ship sank and
III of the crew were drowned.
The Condell and Lynch next attacked
the Aconcagua when the Imperlale
which was stationed outside, signaled,
the approach of another warship and
the torpedo boats Immediately steamed
out OF the harbor and made prepara-
tions to attack the new arrival. She
proved to be III. NJ. S. Warsprite, but
the Conjell. did not discover it and
fired gun to call the stranger to ac-
count. The Condell soon discovered
her mistake and put about ana with the
Lynch proceeded to Valparaiso for
repairs.
The official report of the fight made
to President Ba.maceda states that the
Condell received charge OF canister,
which killed two men and wounded
five others. Fifty-two tubes in boilers
burst and the stokers were nearly as
phyxated. The Lynch was struck "A
times by solid shot, one striking below
the water line. Commander Mont,
commander Of the Encalado, was on
shore during the fight.

The exercises yesterday were interest
ing and appropriate. The cost of the
building and 10, is about 1000, of
which nearly one-half WAS gwen by
Mrs, Helen Newberry, of Detroit. Last
night President Angel preached his
Baccalaureate sermon to the gradual

we'll filled to listen to his eloquent
words.

SOLDIERS HOME
The Legislative Insestigssisg Commits
Again NJ Work.


The Legislative committee was 10
Grand Rapids yesterday, investigating
the Soldiers Home. This visit Will bs
the last which will be made here, unless
something important transpues. Thos.
4. Barkworfn, one of the committee,
was seen nj the Morton last evening,
and Was emphatic Ia bls denuncla-
ton of the manner IN which the hospI-
tai at the home had been constructed.
In speaking about the matter, be said:
There ie no doubt that gross careless
ness has been displayed IN putting OF
the building. The committee did not
suspect that the condition MAS a. bad ss
it is, but now that Il has been nvestl-
gated il is probable that Immediate
steps will be taken 10 have the building
repaired; IN fact. orders have been
gwen TO that effect. Ii is absolutely
dangerous 10 allow any of the old
soldiers 10 inhablt the hospital as Il
now is. A severe wlndstorm would
shatter the walls and bring the structure
down on the heads OF all who were
unfortunate enough 10 be beneath the
roof. Something must be done
Immediately 70 remedy the evil
in order 10 divert calamity.
The building WAS not constr ucted ac-
cording 10 plans and the entire cellar
system was changed. In some places
the outside light penetrates the interior
and by looking upward you can zee the
light Of day Ginning through. That
isn't right, because the contract reads
that the hospital shall be built II n
first-class manner, and the building is
far from that" There 10 reason to
believe that the dormltory investlga-
ton will lead 10 = report which vail
cause the Legislature 10 decide adverse
iy 10 the interests OF those who built Il.
+. 4. Myers, the Detroit architect who
designed the city hall in this city, -
one of the principal witnesses and what
he has TO say regarding the condition
of the hospital Is regarded as having
great weight upon the result. ia
speaking with nlm at the Morton
House last evening he said: "it lsa
fact that the condition of the building
10 very bad and, unless something Is
done at once, there will be loss ol lie
among the old soldiers which Will be

piece of criminal careiessness in my
hfe. and I cannot account for the fact
that the building was accepted.
The roof is badly constructed
and not properly fastened to-
gcther. The timbers are light and have
never been braced. The building =
badly damaged. and IN some places Il -
two 10 three inches out OF plumb. The
only thing which sustsius the roof are
two projections on the east SIDE, and
rear walls. The pressure which pro-
duces this condition is simply enOr-
nous. The building is not safe, and
nothing could hire me 10 sleep 10 II over

BATTING AND FIELDING.


Field and "a nat.
A few figures relative to the work of
the home team at the bat and IN the
field viii he of interest 10 the lovers Of
the National game IN general. and IN
particular TO those who have seen some
of the good work done by the home
team. Ia the nine games played up 10
sunday. Grand Rapids heiding average
MAS yo7, while her opponents III the
same games averaged 9ls. They did
better with the stick, getting a team
batting average of 23l, 10 their oppon-
ents 2ii.
Breckenridge at first base, leads
at the bat. "Breck" hasn't made as
much of q grand stand display as
others, but has been getting IN his hits
very regularly. His average at the tat
is i2i. HIS fielding average is .9dl. lie
has made the most long hits also, katz
being second.
Dowie is we'll up with the bat, his
average being .3l4, bat he IS farther
down IN fielding. having but .S53.
Rocks has made some very big hits
but hasn't made as many of them. Ills
DdttiilE HOi n 10 -oA MI aiis WI n 4h ANAe
garden is sec.
in the field his work is more star like,
being 92S.
Chick" Hofford has secured an
average of 263. The five hits
he made at the last sunday
game did the business for HIM.
He gets his base on balls and by being
hit oftener than any other man on the
team, SO that he is less times at bat
than most players. His catching shows
the remarkable mark of 967 leading the
field work.
Peltz in right hasn't made an error,
Sc he has 1000. With the bat his hits
figure up TO 257.
Popkay's bad work a. short reduced
his fielding to s27. but at second his
average is s96. He goes after every
thing regardless of errors. With the
bat he has an average OF 23l.
Whalen has done the poorest work,
outside the batteries, with the bat,
getting only lS2. HIS field work is low,
too. being only TIA.
Bolan has 1873 for the bat, but his
catching is out of sight, showing the
elegant record of 920.
Breitenstein leads the pitchers at the
bat with l33 and has fieided his position
perfectly, getting 1000.
OConnor's stick work has given him
1873 marks out of the thousand, and in
the field he has secured 922 points.
Doty brings up the rear with a bat
ting average of ZOO but his fielding av-
erage is 1000. In sacrifice hits Katz
has distinguished himself and in strike
outs Doty has done it oftenest. Rocks
doesn't seem to be able to bunt the ball
at all. All the base ball authorities
seek to impress the value of sacrifice
hitting, which is most surely accom-
pllshed by use of the bunt hit. A
player never comes to the bat with the
idea of getting out, but strives to place
the bali. If he does get out he has the
credit of having advanced a base rum
ner, which is the principal object of
any batsman, instead of making a rec
ord. Bunting is scientific work and a
good bunter is counted about as valu-
able as slugger or even moro so by
careful managers. The pitching honors
are Breitsnstein's, he being credited
with the most strike outs, and the
smallest percentage of earned runs of
his work. Doty has the best control
having given the fewest bases on balls.
The team at present is weak by the fig
ures at third base only.
