Foster for Cincinnati.

CHICAGO, May 12.-It is now almost assured that
Elmer Foster will be Cincinnati player before the
week is out. John T. Brush and President Jim
Hart have been in active correspondence the last
week relative to the matter and everything is ar
ranged. Foster was seen by President Hart and
agreed to the transfer to the Queen City under Ger,
with A telegram is expected daily from Brush
telling the local club to close the deal and sign Fos
ter for Cincinnati. Elmer will probably play
center field in place of Slattery who has not made

THE MYSTERY DEEPENED.
New Facts Brought to Light in the Case Of
Tobin, of Franklin.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.l
Z. FRANKLIN, May 12-The theory that N. P.
Tobin met his death by strangulation is los
ing ground here, and statements are made
by young man, who was the first at the
fire, that serve to make the mystery deeper
than ever. He said he had placed ladder
outside, and entering the second story win
dow, threw out several smaller articles.
This explains their presence on the ground,
which had puzzled the authorities. l..'.
1t is also o fact that the things in the ia
nous trunk were placed there vice versa
that is, the upstairs things were on top and
the downstairs things were underneath. The
facts are being put together by detectives
and those quietly working on the case here,
aud it is believed that they destroy the last
vestige of belief that Tobins death was an
accident. Mrs. Tobin is still in town and
advances the theory that her husband tipped
over q lighted lamp while sleeping, and
dozed while the house was burning, then
rushed down stairs to pack the trunk. She
says she viii offer a large reward provided
the county will join her.

LAID TO THE IRON MARKET,

The Failure of the Late Republican Candi-
date for Governor of Michigan.
LANSING, MICH, May 12.-The embarrass.
ment of James NJ. Turner, who was the Re-
publican candidate for Governor last fall, is
attributed by some to the depressed condi-
tion Of the iron market. He is one of the
chief stockholders in the Great Western
Mining Company, Of the Upper Peninsula,
and has heavily indorsed that company's
paper.
Iron is down, and the creditors refusing to
carry the paper, demanded better security,
and this brought the crisis. The lansing
banks are involved only slightly, and they
have ample security.

ing everything into consideration, deserved
TO win IT because of the rank mistakes made
by the aspirant pennant winners.
The contest was somewhat of a curious one
and was witnessed by $500 people. Inc
private boxes were well filled and the grand
stand seats had nearly 50 per cent of the au-
dieuce This ticked both Messrs. Mutrte and
o'Nefl The weather WAS excellent, and although
the very unsatisfactory defeat of the Giants had
depressing effect on Mutrie the paying attendance
afforded great consolation.
Just before the contest started nothing was SO
sure to happen victory for the New Yorks In the
opinion of Mr.. Mutrie. He was so certain OF 1t
that he made j. Palmer take water in the way OF
wagering IS hat on the issue. But almost at the
very start the ardor of James was awfuly dampened
as the score stood to in the fourth inning In
favor of the home PLAYERS. At this stage OF the
proceedings the contest looked very one-slded IN
deed but in a very short time matters were SO
much evened up that Mutrie was trotting from one
private box TO another confdentialy telling every
BODY what tremendous fnishers his men were.

Not Very Brilliant

The game was not brilliant one by any means,
as neither team played as they can play. Each
side made great mistakes but those of the visitors
were punched to such an extent in the second in
ming that four unearned runs were made. But
mistakes are all counted in the game and II Is onIy
because the Giants, like other people, can make
theirs that ote makes matters interesting. Sharrott
pitched very well indeed, but his shortcomings
