BASE BALI.
The Seasons End OH Saturday land Notes
of the Great Game.

The baseball season of 1893 came to a
conclusion on Saturday, the regular
scheduled date for the wind up. The
great game has experienced good sea-
son, all things considered. The minor
leagues as usual were the ones that suf-
fered.
Boston early took lead and maintain
ed it to the end They played very SLOW
emily ball on their final trip west and,fin-
ish but five games ahead of their nearest
competitor, the Pittsburgs. The Cleve-
lands, under the splendid leadership of
Pat Tebeaw, come In third. Harry
Wright's Quakers, who were the Bos-
toms greatest foes and who at one stage
appeared to be booked for theif1ag, hold
fourth place and the New York Giants
follow. Sixth position is awarded to
Cincinnati, who had close tussle with
the Brooklyn's for the notch, the men
from across the big bridge taking the
next best, seventh place. The Baltimore
Orioles have played better ball than for
several years and wind up at the eighth
round of the ladder. Uncle Arson and
his drove of colts barely reached ninth
and the erstwhile famed st. Louis
Browns come next The two tail end
places are held by the usual occupants,
the Louisvilles and Washingtons.
Passed Balls.
Amos Rusie and Kid Nichols have
been the star pitchers Of the land this
season.
The champion Fall Rivers beat the
Troys, one of the best teams in the
Eastern league, twice last week. This
proves quite csnclusively THAT the New
England league is about as fast as the
Eastern.
Buck Ewing caught his first game Of
the season ON Saturday. This was done
as special request. Gotham's former
captain played very strong game this
summer.
There will be radical changes in the
Hub team next season. Herman Long,
Bennett, Staley and Carroll will be seen
in other uniforms.

The MackereI.

The largest catches of the season have
been made the past week. Mackerel
have been schooling in the bay from
Gloucester to Plymouth, and along parts
of the Maine coast. Most of the vessels
averaged $50 barrels each, and several
had over 200 barrels. The shore fleet
landed SO fares in Gloucester, three fares
at Portland, four fares at Previncetowr,4
and seven fares at Boston. The total
landings for the week, including a few
North Bay trips, is 1894 barrels. This
brings the catch UP to 36,849 barrels,
against 43, 7Sl barrels for the correspond
ing week last year. One Of the shore
vessels, Mabel r. Bennett, struck large
school Of mackerel off Minot's light
when coming in with a good fare from
the Eastern shore, and made haul Of
$1,000 fish, which she landed in Boston
fresh. Her salt and fresh mackerel
stocked between $4,000 and $1,000 Other
vessels also had remarkably good luck,
and altogether it has been Ia great week
for mackerel fishermen.

EDWIN BOOTH DYING.
Found Unconscious in His Room
at the Players Club.
HIS PHYSICIANS FEAR THE WORST.

fhe Eminent Tragedian Suffering from q
Second Stroke of Apopiexy-Though in
Poor Health for Some Years, He Was
Recently Reported Improving.
New YORK. April 2o-Edwin Booth, the
trageqian, is lying at the Players club,
10 Gfamercy park, suffering from pa
ralysis. IL is feared that this, the second
apoplectic stroke with which the famous
actor has been stricken, will prove fatal
At IL o'clock yesterday forenoon Superin-
tendent McGonigle, of the Players club,
not having heard from Mr.. Booth, opened
the door of his sleeping apartment at the
club and found the tragedian lying in bed
unconscious.
DIR. St. Clair Smith and DR.. Ransom
were Immediately summoned, and gave it
as their opinion that he had been stricken
with paraly is some time during the night.
Drs. Smith and Ransom remained with
the ratieQt all day, and at midnight
Thought there were signs of consciousness.
His condition is considered very critical.
and the attea3ing physicians say that it is
very douhtfa. il Mr.. Booth will recover,
The first attack of this kind which Mr..
Booth had was on April 8, 1889 He was
then playing "Othello" with Lawrence
Barrett in Rochester. He appeared weak
as the performance went on, and finally
another actor had to be put in his place to
finish an act of the play. He recovered,
however, in a few days.
Since Mr., Booth gave his last perform
ance, at the Academy of Music, in Brook
lyn, on April 3, 1891 his health has been
generally poor. He has spent the most of
his time at the Players club. A few weeks
ago he appeared to be considerably better,
so much SO, indeed, that it was reported
that he would return TO the stage next
season. The last time he was seen in pub
lie was on April 5, when he attended
Alexander Salvini's performance at the
Manhattan club.

BELGIUM'S BALLOT LAW.

FEARS OF ANOTHER UPRISING

Some LaE.or Leaders Object to the Pro-
visions Which Allow Three Votes to
Certain Individuals-PossibIeE Effect Of
Further Trouble on European Politics.
BRUSSELS, April 90 - The scheme of
plural voting provided for in the Nyssen
bill, as passed on Tuesday, confers a vote.
on every male citizen aged 25 years, who
has resided at least one year in the same
commune and has never been convicted of
breach of the law The bill confers an
additional vote on those who possess the
following qualifications: Every male citi-
zen aged 35 years, and either married or a
widower, paying a government tax of at
least five francs in amount, unless ex-
empted from the tax on account of his
profession; every male citizen aged 25 years,
who Is an owner OF real estate of the value
of at least 1000 francs, or who has been in
scribed for at least two years on the ledger
of the public debt, or in the stock book of
bank for savings, as the possessor of at
least 100 francs in Belgian rentes; every
male citizen aged 25 years, who is the
bearer of diploma of superior education,
or similar certificate showing that he has
attended a complete course of higher in
structlon in public or private seminary,
or who is filing or has filled public
office, or is hodingor has held position,
or is exercising or has exercised pro-
fession implying superior education, the
question as to what positions and profess
sions are to be regarded as qualifying under
this clause TO be decided by law. No per-
son is to be entitled to more than three
votes, and voting is nude obligatory.
Nearly all OF the strikers have resumed
work, although there are many who are
not yet satisfied. Yesterdays vote does
not go far enough for these men, for
while it nominally grants universal suf-
frage it permits plural voting,n based
upon the extent of ones possessions
Many extremists here say that The strikers,
emboldened by their success, will shortly
demand the further concession of "a single
suffrage" such rs prevails in the United
States. HERE are not wanting signs
which indicate that the fire is only smoul-
dering.
This makes the condition extremely crit
ical, for il by any combination of circum-
stances the Belgia government should be
overthrown, even conservative statements
admit that there would be serious danger
of Il general continental European war,
with France and Germany AS the first par
ties involved in the struggle for the pos
session of Belgium.
Latest reports indicate that the strike
was much more serious and cost more
lives and wounds than has been generally
stated. The king is in favor with the pop
ulace, His oft expressed views on the
question of universal suffrage have made
him popular, but the extreme labor lead
ers say that no feeling of friendship shall
deter them from achieving their ultimate
object One alarming fact developed by
the strike is that the Belgian officials
would be unable TO cope successfully with
well armed and tolerably organized mob.

The elevated stations are q constant
source of turning about to absentminded
folk Those at crowded thoroughfares,
where there are stairs not only on. both
sides of the avenue, but also of the cross
street, prove particularly confusing to
"transients."
The other day young woman not often
in New York stopped at one Of these to ask
the guard a question:
"You're on the up town track" he an
swercd; ''go down stairs and cross the
street,
Down stairs she went, crossed Twenty
third street and appeared again.
81 told you," repeated the man on seeing
her, ito go down and cross the street"
Thoroughly bewildered, she went down,
recrossed and once more presented herself
before the same guard.
"What ails your" he cried. II said go
down and cross tho estreet."
Down she crept, abashed, crossed the
street and climbed the stairs for the fourth
time. As she reached the top she peered
cautiously over. There stood that man.
She gathered up her skirts, and turning on
tiptoe raced down again at the top of her
speed.
A little reflection on the curbstone sent
her finally rejoicing across the avenue to
the other track.-New York Times
