At the conclusion of yesterdays game at
New York Mr.. Freedman, on behalf of the
New York club. offered President Robi-
son of Cleveland s1O,e9O in cash for the
release of Burkett and Mexican. Mr.. Robi-
son promptly declined the offer. He ad-
mitted that the Price was generous and
complimentary to his two great players,
but he said it would kill base ball in Cleve-
land to dispose OF them at any price.
The New York club made almost as large
an offer for the release of Breitenstein and
Ely without success. 1t Is next to impos-
sible to purchase the release of valuable
players just now.

INTERNATIONAL ATHLETICS.
The Prospect of a Meet IndOrsed by
English Papers.

LONDON. June THE greatest interest
| is taken here in the prospect of an inter-
national athletic contest between the Uni
versities Of Oxford and Cambridge and
teams from American universities. The
| first news Ct the Oxford and Cambridge
challenge was published in England today
Naturally, there are numerous comments
en- the challenge. and they all express the
hope that it will be accepted.
For instance, the st. James Gazette says:
1T will do good to the universities of both
countries aud help to produce friendlier
feeling on both sides of the Atlantic"
The Pail Mall Gazette in the course of a
column leading editorial on the same sub
ject, remarks: There will be additional in
terest in the meeting Of the view of the
London Athletic Club fixture and We shall
thus have international contests which
should enable the athletes of 10th coun-
tries to take thorough stock of each
others capacities"
After alluding to the benefits of such
contests, the Pail Mall Gazette continues:
Every spectator of the contests between
Oxford and Yale was struck by the manly
spirit in which the Americans bore the
barest of bare defeats. We are not asham-
ed to say that this association of youth
with youth may tend to shape the rela-
tionships Of the two peoples

Two hours and five minutes were requir-
ed by the Washington Base Ball Club yes
terday afternoon to convince the visitors
from Cleveland that they were beaten. The
game could have been played in much less
time. however, had good-natured Al Maui
not stopped down each time before deliver
ing the ball to rub it on the ground. But
as he undoubtedly rubbed it against
rabbits foot or lucky, stone buried in the
ground in the pitchers box, the delay was
overlooked and forgiven. especially as Mr..
Wallace, who pitched, for the men from
Cleveland, failed do find a similar luck
giving point. Yesterdays game was won
by the local team simply because it played
superior ball. 1t was a game, too, devoid
of grnmbling or Kicking and full of life,
good batting and fine playing; therefore,
game as satisfactory as 1t was enjoyable
to the Washington public, for 1t showed
what the local team IL capable Of. now that
Mr.. Wagner has so well filed the great
gap at short by SD excellent player as
Jack Glasscock. Z Il"
The latter made his first appearance in
a Washington uniform, and his advent
was the signal for a storm. of welcoming
applause He steadied the nine, particu-
larly the infeld, in a wonderful manner,
and although thenfirst two runs made by
the visitors were etto hts bad throw to
first, that and his other misplay were at
tributable more to lack of practice dur
ing his shert lay-off by the Louisville man
agement than to anything else. His bat
ting was a feature of the game. his hits
being good clean ones and productive of
runs. The manner in which he went for
everything was refreshing in the extreme,
and the unanimous verdict OF those who
were fortunate enough to witness yester-
days game was that Mr.. Wagner's engage
ment of Glasscock was the wisest move
made for many moons.
The Washington team got down to busi-
ness in the first inning. Glasscock's drive
over second, which Mexican failed to hold,
scored HaSsamer and MCGUIRE. In the
next Joyce's double to center scored Sell
bach, who had reached first on George Te-
beau's muff to the throw. In the seventh
cyclone of hits gave Washington four
