the theory that it is not methods of pro-

The Relief Committee Waiting for Report
From the Disaster.
The Committee on Supplies for the relief
of the sufferers met at $50 last night in the
rooms of the Chamber of Commerce. They
had sent kilograms to Oil City to the COM
mittee that left in the afternoon, telling
them to order any supplies needed that the
latter might be sent early this morning.
Nothing was heard from Oil City until
nearly midnight when brief telegram was
received by II. d. w. English from Mayor
Gourley, which read: 1--WE will report
fully on return in the morning."
The members of the committee could not
understand why relief was not wanted at
once and J. Morton Hall, of the committee,
telephoned to the Allegheny Valley offices
to learn what they know from the oil coun-
try. The railroad officials notified the COM
mittee that the Pittsburg committee had
left Oil City for home at IL o'clock, and
would arrive here at 7:30 this morning.
The committee then adjourned to meet
again at that hour to receive the report of
the Visiting Committee.
During the evening the Committee on
Supplies was called on at the Chamber of
Commerce by committee of ladies from
the Hospital Saturday and Sunday Assoca-
tion, who rendered the assistance of that or
ganization for anything the committee de-
sired them to do

THE WORST NOT TOLD.
A Former Resident of Titusville Thinks the
Loss Greater Than Reported.

A Former Resident of TitusviIIe Thinks the
Loss Greater Than Reported.
Samuel Robson, of Allegheny, who for
merly resided in Titusville and who was a
member of the Relief Committee which
went to Oil City yesterday, said before
leaving Pittsburg that the extent of
the horror at Titusville and Oil
City must be greater than has been estimated.
The reports say that Titusville, below
Spring street, is still submerged, and that
the Dead if any, have not been removed
from there. ! anticipate that the greatest
loss OF life occurred below Spring street."
Mr.. Robson said. That part of the town
below Spring street is inhab-
ited by workingmen and Polish Hebrews.
These people are packed together closely,
and | am afraid the receding waters will
disclose hundreds of people who have been
drowned and burned. The course of the
food and the direction of the fire indicate
10 me that the greatest suffering must have
been in that part of the town known as the
fats, ana while l earnestly hope we have
already heard the worst 1 cannot but look
for greater disaster from that district, which
/ understand is still flooded"

THEIR DOORS OPENED.
The Hospitals Really and Willing to Receive
and Relieve the Suffering.

The Hospitals Really and Willing to Receive
and Relieve the Suffering
Pittsburg hospitals, like Pittsburg's
philanthropists, have risen to the occasion,
and most, if not all of them, have thrown
open their doors to the distressed and suf-
tering. The Mercy Hospital last night sent
word to the Relief Committee that their
doors were open and that they had 60 beds
already prepared for any of the suffering
who may be sent to them.
The Allegheny General Hospital has
made preparations for doing its part in this
disaster. Last night corps was organized,
consisting of the Superintendent, three res
ident physicians and six trained nurses, and
equipped for taking the field at a moments
notice Messages were sent to Oil City and
TitusvIlle notifying the authorities there,
and the corps will start at once should its
services be required. At the same time ar
rangements were made TO receive and care
for from 20 TO 25 of the injured should it be
deemed advisable to send them this far.

state of utter collapse. The Bostons de-
voted themselves to getting rested yesterday
| and to-day they fattened up their batting
averages with ze,t that was very exciting
for the 1.300 spectators present, but dis
couraging to the Pittsburgers. Baldwin
was done up in the second inning and was
taken from the box with record of six hits
two singles, two doubles and two three
baggers and six runs recorded against him.
And Camp Was Also Tried.
Then Camp essayed to hold the ferocious
bean-eaters in check, but it was too big a
contract for him to carry out. While the
first half of the fifth inning was being
played a smart shower passed over the
grounds, but it lasted only Is minutes, and
Umpire Gafney authorized the continuation
of the slaughter. The score was 9 to in
favor of the bean-eaters when the rain inter-
rupted the game. 1t was sad thing for
the visitors that the shower did not last a
bit longer. Then this sad tale would not
have been recorded OF course the lively
batting of the Bostons kept the visitors
hustling, and much credit is due the Pitts
burg felders that the score was not even
bigger than it was.
They Stopped Some Scorchcrs.
Farrell, Shugart and Bierbauer stopped
some scorchers that looked like safe hits
But the clean batting of the Bostons was
the chief feature of the game. They scored
two runs in the first inning on a base on
balls, three-bagger and a sacrifice. The
slaughter began to assume big proportions
in the second inning Then the Bostons
picked up startling array of doubles and
honr iob cd
runs. Then Baldwin retired disgusted in
favor of Camp. Bat Camp was bit wild
at the start, and in the next four innings
the Bostons rolled up eight runs OH five
singles and two homers, assisted by three
bases on balls. wild pitch which hit the
batsman, and a wild thrown ball by Camp.
Each of those errors resulted in run. The
Bostons took rest in the seventh inning,
but resumed operations in the same old way
in the eighth inning. Scoring three more
runs on four single and a base on balls, Civ
ing them grand total OF II runs.
They Started Out Ali Right.
The Pittsburgs started out as though
they intended to be in the game, but after
the fourth inning they found the pace TOO
hot for them and dropped out. They
nings, but after the fourth inning they
didn't place the ball safely but once
Bierbauer opened the hitting with two
bagger in the first inning, and Shugart tol-
lowed with a single, which yielded a run.
Shugart foolishly tried to steal second and
discovered his error when too late. In the
third inning five Pittsburg men reached
first base, but only two of them scored A
tumble by Nash gave Camp his base, but he
was forced at second by Miller, and the
latter was in turn forced by Bierbauer
Then Shugart hit for two bases and Bier
bauer scored. Beckley followed with
single and Shugart crossed the plate In
fourth inuing hits by Corkhill, Camp and
Miller enabled Corkhill to score another
earned run. After that the game contained
nothing of interest to the Pittsburg players.

The as Runner Takes a Race.

At the meeting of the Columbia Athletic
Club at Analostan Island on Saturday,
George W. Laughlin, Jr, of the Allegheny
Athletic Club, won the 220 yards race with
ten yards start in % 2-5 seconds. He did not
run in the 44O yards race. Bauer, of the P.
a. S. c., who beat him in the 40 yards run at
the A. G. S. n. meeting in Philadelphia on
Decoration Day, was second in the 220 yards
run ut Washington. although he had 12
yards start. This event, as well as those in
which other representatives of the "Three
AS" took part in the East recently, shows
that there is talent in Allegheny county
equal to if not better than is to be found in
the Atlantic cities. The more representa-.
tives of our local amateur athletic societies
that are sent East, the better known they
will become from the very TACT that they
are able to win. The greatest credit Is due
the "Three As'' for having taken the initia-
tive in this direction.

They Are Sent to the Disaster-Women
Weep Like Distressed Children.
A carload of coffins and two carloads of
beds and and bedding were shipped to Oil
City over the Allegheny Valley Railroad
yesterday morning. Thousands of people
coming into the city on the morning trains,
who had just heard of the calam-
ity, stopped and watched with
melancholy interest the loading of the
cofins. There we're 3S roughboxes and %
caskets, and after the incoming passengers
watched the loading of the coffins and the
bedding they hurried On to their work with
heavy hearts.
The morning trains to Oil City were
found crowded with Pittsburgers who have
relatives there, and many of those who hur-
ried to the scene were not sure that the cof-
fins were not for some of their loved ones
and many of the women could not repress
their emotions, and some of them broke
Gown and wept like distressed children.

some of them extremely drol and clever.
FitZsimmons and the Eastern heavyweight,

certainly worth seeing. Jimmy Carroll, the
