GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAY

The shooting tourney was continued at
Homewood Park yesterday afternoon in
presence of very large attendance. The
shooting was excellent, particularly in the
amateur class. In the latter class it will
be pleasing to local patrons of the gun to
know that w. S. King, of this city, was
first with the splendid average of 95.1 per
cent, and George Cochrane and G. A.
Young tied for second place with each an
average of 93.1 per cent This shooting
surprised the talent.
In the expert class William Wolsten-
croft was again first with an average of 87.5
per cent, and N. Apgar was second with an
average of S5.5 per cent. In the semi-ex-
pert class William R. Friles was first with
an average of so per cent and G. Fulford
was second with 77.2 per cent.
The entries were numerous and the purse
and added money made big prizes for the
winners. The tourney will conclude to-
day. Some of the best shots in the country
are contesting, and yesterday all contest
ants were extremely pleased with the man.

HANLON FOR BALTIMORE
The Popular Local Player May Sign to Man.
age the Orioles,

1t may be that Ed Hanlon, the popular
player, of this city. may agree to manage the
Baltimore team to-day. Yesterday Won der
Horst by wire obtained the permission of the
local club to negotiate with Hanlon, and the
latter last evening received a dispatch from
Won der Horst stating the terms offered.
Nothing definite was done last evening and
terms may be agreed upon to-day.
The Baltimore team needs q manager who
is a practical man, and none better than
Hanlon could be obtained. OF course he is
reluctant to leave Pittsburg, as his home
and family are here, but lie has much to
gain and nothing to lose by taking hold of
the Baltimore team. They are as low as they
can get, and if he improves their position he
will get the credit. He will not be able to
play for some time yet, and when he is able
nobody is better judge on the ball field
than Ed Hanlon. His many friends in this
city will regret TO see him go, but the
changes in baseball life are many and
strange. He is an able player and as earnest
as any man in tie country.
There will also be a change or two in to-
days game. Elmer Smith will be given a
rest and Raymond employed. Manager
Buckenb berger thinks that Smith may be
useful as pitcher. The team to-day, there
fore, will be as follows: Miller. m; Bierbauer

NEWsY NOTES FROM NEARBY TOWNS

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.l
HARRISBURG, May 4.-Robert A. Orbi-
son and H. G. Twitchell, clerks In the
Auditor Generals Department, were to-day
notified that their services are no longer
required. Their removal is IS surprising as
it Is sudden. Orbison is relative of Gen.
eral Gregg and was originally slated for
Corporation Clerk of the department.
Orbison is also related to Ex-Governor
Beaver, by whom he was appointed to a
clerkship in the Attorney Generals Depart
ment, which position he held until Auditor
General McCamant found place for him
in the Auditor Generals Department.
Orbison and Twitchell were paid out of
the contingent fund of the department.
When General Gregg learned this, he at
once asked for their resignation, with the
bare statement that their salaries are too
heavy drain on the fund.
One of the first clerks to 90 will be Briggs
Meyers, of Venango. General Gregg is said
to have had Meyers marked for removal
soon after his election. Some time ago a
gentleman went to the Auditor Generals
Department about noon on some very i'm
portapt business. He was referred to Meyers.
Meyers told the gentleman that it was his
dinner hour, and that if lie wanted to do
business with him he must come around
about l o'clock. The gentleman happened
to be a confidential friend of General Gregg,
and at once informed the then Auditor
General-elect OF the manner in which he had
beer snubbed.
Oscar Small, of Beaver, close friend OF
Senator Quay, is also to 20 to make room for
one of General Gregg's personal friends
Eben Allison, senator Quay's brotherin-law,
is generally looked upon as another cam
didate for General Gregg's official AK.
There is likely to be some important
changes made IN the list of watchmen,
laborers, ETC., about the middle OF June.
The Board OF Public Grounds and Buildings
will oraaniZe June l. 1t will consist of the
Governor, Auditor General and State Treas
urer. General Gregg and Captain Morrison
will control all the appointments. Both
having been soldiers. and having been
elected on that issue, they are expected to
find places for their comrades. Major Lock
hart. superintendent of Public Buildings
and Grounds. is not sure of being retained,
Notwithstanding his war record, and has
asked Chris Magee to use his influence with
the Board to keep him where he is. General
Gregg has the Gubernatorial bee in his bon
net. his friends say, and will be n candidate
tor the nomination at the expiration OF his
term.

PREcARI0Us FOR PIPES
Evidence In the Waynesburg Murder Trial

Evidence In the waynesburg Murder Trial
Contrndicts the Prisoners Story.
WAYNEsBURG, Nav 4.-[SpectaL 1.-The inter-
est in the Pipes-H otfman murder case to-day
was intense. The physicians who made the
post-mortem examination Of the body of
Hoffman testified that the wounds showed
that the man had his back turned toward
Pipes when the fatal shot was fired. This
disproves Pipes statement that the deed
was committed in self-defense. Several
persons who had visited the scene OF the
murder Immediately after the shooting
stated that the stable doors were closed and
locked. Pipes. however, had said that the
man Hoffman was inside the stable.
1t was proven, too, that young Hoffman
was accustomed to hitching his horse while
in town in the alley in the rear of Pipes
residence, and when he did so on this occas-
ion he was whistling n merry tune. Joseph
Stckles testified he mad seen Pipes and
Hoffman quarreling a month before the
crime was committed. Mrs. William Berry
mill, o near neishbor to the Pipes, had gone
into the 1atter's home shortly after the
shooting. She said Pipes was covered with
blood, and that he made several apparently
contradictory statements in her presence
concerning the affair. The Commonw ealth
will close its case tomorrow morning. The
defense, it is claimed, will introduce some
startling evidence.
