BINGHAMToN, N. Y, June 6.-The Bin
goes walked all over the Providence
Grays yesterday afternoon, defeating
them in a shameful manner by taking
advantage Of the pitching of Madden and
knocking the ball all over the lot. The
Grays were exceedingly weak in batting
and running bases, while the Bingoes
rubbed it In by perfect fielding.
The Grays made few errors but felded
very slowly and when Sullivan went in
to pitch In the third inning they seemed
to have lost heart and to regard the case
es hopeless Sullivan had good speed
and control of the ball and with proper
support the Bingoes should have been
shut ont In the six innings that he
pitched. Lang assonished everybody b.
making two two-baggers and single
white every player on his team except
Slattery got at least one hit.
Petit got two hits and Cooney and
Bassett one each which was the sum
total Of the Grays' batting. Campion
hit the tall hard every time at bat but
there was a fielder IN the way each time

House Briefly Told.
Boston, June 8-Mr. Parkman ex.
planned to the senate that the governor

cause Of complaint against Commissioner

that Is necessary.

Franklin, Midway, Medheld, Mills. Nor
folk, Walpole and Wrentham, with q
judge at sll00, clerk at 500. and two as
sociate justices, with sittings at Franklin
and Walpole
Mr.. Kennedy explained and advocated
the house bill to provide an open space on
the east side of the state house, urging
that there would never be so good chance
as now. After some discussion the bill
was then referred to the next general
court--19 to IL.
Without any debate the house eoncnrred
with all the senate amendments to the
Cape Cod canal bill.
The house insisted upon its amendments
to the McTammany voting machine bill,
and Messrs Moriarty, Hoyt and Bacon
were appointed a committee OF conference.

Between Brown and Holy Cross.

Between Brown and Holy Cross.
WORCESTER, June 6.-The game be-
tween the Holy Cross and Brown univer-
sity teams yesterday was very close
one. TIE Worcester batteries were not
able to do much with White who was
put into the box for the visitors and the
same hits made by them were pretty
well scattered.
Brown. on the other hand. although
crippled, played stiff game at the bat
and in the field and carried of victory
that was we'll earned. Holy Cross went
TO the bat first and after two men had
been retired Golfer reached first on an
error, but he was left there.
Brown succeeded in getting a run in
after two men had gone out, Sexton on
strikes aud Steere on "a ground hit to
short stop. Jones hit tor n single and
stole second. Magill came i'm with a
hit and Jones scored by a fine slide to
the plate. George was out on Rrounder
to Bannan.
Holy Cross had men on bases in every
inning except the last. but only in the
ninth were any OF them able to reach
the home plate in safety. La tho ninlh
with the score to 0 against them the
Holy Cross team opened at the bat.
Bannan, the first man up, hit hard one
for three bases; he started home on it.
and the thro in to the plate came on
the bound and got by Lans The score
was tied and the college men went wild
with enthusiasm. Tne next three men
went out in order.
There was great excitement at the
opening of the eleventh inning. The
three home batsmen went out In one
two-tbree order on flies TO the outfield.
Brown went to the bat and pounded
Brennan for three singles, and thus tn
game was won. The score:

NATIcK, Mass, June 6.-The murder OF
Jacob Littig Is still on the list of mysteries
which seem to be growing daily. The po-
lice of Natick and Wellesley are not yet
possessed of enough evidence to warrant
an arrest. What they b ave got they re-
fuse to divulge.
Chief of Police Colburn and another
officer drove to South Natick last evening
to see IL anything new could be found and
to help the Wellesley officers, who will be
the ones to make the arrests, as the mur'
der has been decided TO have been com
mitted in their district.
Some of the officers here think that ar
rests should have been made of the sus.
pected persons right after the crime. They
are inclined to talk freely of the matter,
but think now that nothing will be done
unless new clue Is found. One of them
declared that the old scents had been al.
lowed to grow too cold.

"Oh, now il tou want to find out about

seemed to talk better on the case. but he
only smiled and said: "Now you 20 see
my lawyer. have not thing to say."
When Van Buren, was searched on being
put into Jail on the night of his arrest a
hypodermic syringe, such as is used for
the injection of morphine. was taken from
him. Later at night telephone message,
from some mysterious source. was re-
ceived at the Jail urging the officers
to search him more carefully as
he had morphine on his person. This
warning was repeated later on, evidently
by some person who was deeply in
terested. and tho sheriff was told
he would find the drug hidden away
in the prisoners stocking. The person
who telephoned this appeared from his
conversation to be familiar with Van
Buren's personal habits. Whether the
search was made and II il was successful
the officers would not state.
