from here yesterday afternoon for Har-

srANrING OF TIE CLUBS,


The patrons of the diamond will be
pleased to learn that the injury little
Toman sustained at Lancaster last week
will not prove fatal.
Yerkes, who deserted us for Scranton,
has been signed again and will pitch
against the Harrisburgs today.
The game which Pottsville won on
Friday will not count in the state league
series against Shenandoah because when
it was played the latter club had not been
authorized to participate in the league, so
that Shenandoah has only lost one league
game to Pottsyille so far, and that one is
under protest.
There was a strike at the Trotting park
yesterday when the box Office was opened.
About fifty men and youths who had
been waiting for the opening refused to
pay % cents admission and stood in a
group on the opposite side of the road
from the office, impOTtuning each new
arrival not to pay more than 10 cents.
They succeeded in tying the Office and
after a consultation the Reading and
home managers decided that as the game
was an exhibition one the price coIld be
reduced TO the sum demanded. But
whenever state league games are played
25 cents will be the admission fee strike
or no strike. The clubs will have no
control over it.

LONDON, Aug. 6-The japanese lega-

Toxic: General Oshima, commander of
the troops in Corea, reports that after Sc
we're fighting from to s a. m, on July 90,
he won a decisive victory over the Chinese
army intrenched at Kashau. Every in
trenchment was taken, aud more than 500
out of $500 Chinese troops were killed and
wounded. Our casualties were five officers
and seventy men killed and wounded.
THE enemy dispersed and fed toward
Hong Chow, intending, perhaps, to avail
themselves of the Coreau boats. In the
vicinity of Genshan our troops captured
many flags, much ammunition and four
guns. General Oshima eventually estab-
lished his headquarters at Kashan."
A dispatch to The Times from Tientsin
says that thirteen Japanese who were
forcibly taken by the Chinese from OF
board the British steamer Chun King
were at once returned to that vessel upon
the order of the viceroy, who issued such
instructions the moment he was informed
Of the incident The viceroy also sent al

which was not controlled until two-thirds
of the grand stand had been destroyed.
In the wild scramble several arms were
broken and a score Of people were slightly
burned and cut by barb wire fencing, The
fire is supposed to have been started by a
boy lighting a cigarette
