Umpire Emslie had many close decisions
to make. and the home team got the worst
Of 1t every time. The success Of the visit

MRS. HALLIDAY CONVICTED.
Verdict of Murder in the First De-
gree Brought in by the Jury

The jury in the case of Mrs. Halliday, on
trial at Monticello, N. Y, for the murder
of her husband and Mrs. and Miss McQuil-
Ian, retired at 80 o'clock yesterday, and
three hours later returned with a verdict
Of guilty Of murder in the first degree.
After the verdict had been announced by
Foreman Decker the counsel for the de-
Tense asked for poll of the jury. Each
juryman was asked If his verdict was that
Of murder in the first degree and all an
swered In the affirmative. AS the woman's
counsel had nothing to say to the verdict.
the judge announced that he would pro-
nounce judgment on the prisoner today.
The prisoner did not seem to be affected
by the verdict. When she was brought in to
court her cheeks were flushed. When she
was told to stand up and face the jury she
did so upon being raised by the cohstables
in charge. She did not seem to comprehend
that she was being consigned to death.
After the verdict had been rendered and
she had taken her seat, she tried several
times to put her foot on a chair in front of
her. The watch. rings and other effects of
Sarah McQuilan were given to her father
Thomas McQuillan.

Base Ball Notes.

Pittsburg dispatch says that Baltimore
has finally consented to the transfer Of
next weeks Washington games to that city
The local team was guilty Of very bad
base-running yesterday. Cartwright should
have had another base on the fly missed by
Bannon. and Radford would have scored had
he not made very poor attempt to steal
second with Sullivan at the bat.
In Sullivan the local team has evidently
secured prize. He has great speed, a fine
curve. and Is a good hitter. His only
weakness Is his wildness. AS soon as he
learns the location Of the plate he Is bound
to become one of the best In the country.
Sullivan, in bis street clothes. Is the exact
likeness Of Charley Courtney, formerly the
oarsman.
The fly which Setback missed yesterday
as il was going over the wire fence in right
field WAS exactly the same thing that Tom
my Dowd caught and saved four runs. To
catch 1t would have been: remarkable
play.

says. referring to decreased attendance
at the ball game: 1 made two reso-
lutions at the opening of the season.:
First, would only pay 25 cents
admission; second, would stop going when
1t got too hot to comfortably see the game
from 25-cent seat. Therefore. / did not go
yesterday. / have talked with q score or
more patrons Of the game. and find that
they are Influenced by the same considera-
lions. The dropping OF Of patronage in hot
weather proves that there are thousands
Of others SO Influenced.
Now, If you think 1t Is profitable to
leave the 25-cent seats uncovered. all right.
/ am sure from loo to 1900 more people
would attend the game every hot day II
they were covered. That would be from
$3.50 to $500 a day. How long would 1t take
at that rate to pay for a roof?
