Cricket Match ro.nax

There will be a cricket match this
afternoon at 4:3O on the Janette tract,
between an eleven captained by r. B.
Jackson and one gotten up by Edw.
Hughes. The teams are very evenly
matched and it is thought that the
game will be close one. All are cor
daily invited to attend. The local club
has an engagement next month with the
Gordonsville eleven and the members
are therefore practicing as much as pos
siblo. 1t Is expected that the street
railway will be running to tho grounds
inside of few weeks, which will make
it extremely convenient for persons
wishing to attend the games.

why MT. Elkins Declines to Run.

WHEELING, w. Va, July 22.-In
letter addressed to Chairman Dawson,
of the State Republican comm ittee,
which will be published here to-mor-
row, Secretary OF War Elkins states
that the reason for his refusal to accept
the nomination for governor of West
Virginia is that question has been
raised as to his eligibility under the

in tho State OF five years. He says he
is eligible, but since the issue has been
raised it might imperil the success Of

Several recommendations regarding
the handling of the finances of the city
were adopted. There was some opposi-
ton to paying salary Of S1OO per
month to the board of public works, but
this was finally confirmed.
Mr.. Loughery, of the street commit
tee, submitted resolutions determining
to pave Salem and Campbell avenues,
reporting at tho time that after hear
ing of the AUDITING owners, the commit
tee considered it expedient to 90 ahead
with the work.
Mr.. Dupuy offered an amendment to
the street committees resolution pro-
viding that property owners should pay
only one third on either side, the city
to pay for the remainder and also the
intersections. The amendment was de-
feated, although it was strongly advo.
Gated by Messrs. Dupuy and Moomaw.
Mr.. Loughery urged, in a strong and ef-
fective argument, the necessity of max
ing che street improvements at once,
and called for the adoption of his reso-
lutions.
On being put to vote, they were
adopted, and the contract for paving
those two avenues was then let to ]. A.
Gillespie, with the understanding that
he file his bond in fifteen DAYS. The
bond is to be in the sum of IS per cent.
of the contract price, and the Virginia
Vitrified Brick and Sewer Pipe Com
panY will be required TO give bond for
the durability of the brick, as per its
agreement, which is for ten years.

TRANSPORTING MEN.
The Steamer Tide Making Trips all Day
Yesterday.


PIrrsDURG, July a2.-fSpeciall-The
steamer Tide left tho wharf here at Q
o'clock, for Homestead, with about forty
men on board, and will continue to
mako trips all day, carrying men to
Homestead in connection with the Lit
tie Bill, which took up q load early this
morning. The boat was guarded by a
squad Of policemen to prevent trouble at
the wharf or at Lock No. l.
AT the office of tho Tide it was learned
that boats would be busy all day, and it
is evident that number OF men will be
sent up. All the morning men with
satchels and bundles were coming to
and going from the the Office of the
company, and it looks as IL the company
was carrying out its intention and max
ing good its claim that all men needed
could be obtained. AS soon as the Tide
left three men, evidently watchers,
went in the Monongehela House and
sent messages by the Western Union,
evidently TO Homestead, to notify tho
men that the boat had left.

Obiectlng to O,Donnell,s Release.

PirrsBuRG, July ga Special This
afternoon eight men, supposed to be
Pinkertons, who were at Homestead on
the 9TH instant, the day of the riot.
called at the county Jail to identity
Hugh O'Donnell. The latter was brought
into the corridor with dozen others
confined in the jailand was identified
by each OF the eight men. The purpose
OF this move on the part of tho Pinker-
tons could not be learned, but it is sur
missed to be connected with a possible
objection to O'Donnell being released
on bail To prevent his release charge
OF first degree murder must be made.
and the visit OF the supposed Pinker-
tons IS thought to have been made with
view to substantiate such charge
against O'Donnell.

THEY BROUGHT HER IN.
Sailors from Maine Vessel Save Dis
abIed Schooner.

New YORK, December 29.-There ar
rived in quarantine this morning the tug
Mutual, which brought in the crew of
the bark Chestina Rodman, Captain Nc
Lean, of Rockport, Me-, for Baltimore.
December 26, off Nantucket shoals, the
schooner Neva was sighted flying sig
nails of distress. The bark bore down to
her. Her captain reported the vessel
leaking, with four feet of water in the
hold. The pumps were choked and the
crew, consisting of six men, requested to
be taken off, which was accomplished
with much difficulty owing to the strong
northeast gale, heavy sea and thick snow
storm. Chief Mate J. Laurie and two
seamen volunteered to board the
schooner, which they did. To their sur
prise, they found the vessel in good con-
dition. After several hours of incessant
labor they succeeded in getting the
pumps at work and relieved the vessel of
water in the hold. They proceeded un-
der all sail for this port. The vessel is
in slendid condition. She has a cargo of
logwood, all intact which is valuable in
price. The bark proceeded on her vow
age to Baltimore. The crew of the
schooner was taken off by the bark and
were in an exhausted condition, owing to
labor at the pumps and extreme cold.
