BANGING THE MAPLE.
Terraptns Have a Narrow ESCAPED in
a Match Gnme-NQtee.

The match game between the Naples
of Newark and the Terrapins of Green
vile. on the latter's alleys last evening,
proved one of the closest and most ex-
citing contests ever rolled on the alley.
From the start until the finish the teams
kept within hailing distance of each
other, and not until the last man had
rolled was the game decided. When
Captain Herig. the last man on the Ter
rapin's team faced the pins he had to
make a strike to make the defeat of
his team Impossible. He had already
made a strike in the ninth frame, and
when he shot the ball down the alley
and all the pins were swept into the pit.
the performance was greeted with a shout
tina could be heard blocks away. Had
Herig failed to make the strike the Ter
rapins would nave been defeated, as
Kraemer wound up for the Naples with
a triple header. The Terrapins won the
game by four pins. After the contest
a dinner was served to the vanquished
bowlers. Following is the score of the
game.-

circuit court Of the United States for the
eastern district of Virginia. The case is
one which has excited considerable interest
In naval and army circles, involving, as it
does, the validity of trials by courts-mar-
tial, and the righ. of the civil courts to set
aside the verdict of the army and naty
courts wherever criminal punishment is in
volved.
Sayre was a clerk to a paymaster in the

ship Franklin. lying at the Norfolk navy
yard He was accused of embezzling
5000 in money. and sentenced by court
martial to two years Imprisonment to a
heavy fine and to dishonorable dismissal
from the service. Sayre sued out writ of
habeas corpus, and Judge Hughes ordered
his discharge from Imprisonment upon the
ground that, although Sayre was in the
naval service, he could not, in time of
peace, be punished for the offense which he
&C emmitted by court-martial or otherwise
than on indictment by a grand jury. under
the fifth amendment to the Constitution;
ard also on the ground that the sentence
of the court-martial was "cruel and un-
usual" and prohibited by the eighth
amendment. It was claimed on behalf of
the navy that the court had no jurisdiction,

OIL GOES UP AGAIN.
Spectators Arc Slowly Recovering
Their Confidence.

Spectators Arc Slowly Recovering
Their Confidence.
PITTSBURG. Pa, April 1s.-There was a
crowd of eager and excited people in the
lobby of the stock and oil exchange when
the gong sounded this morning. The dis
astrous break in oil from 262 to 217 at the
close yesterday had staggered brokers
that they were prepared for anything to-
day. But the surprise was an agreeable
one to holders of certificates for the open
ing quotation was 225 and this was i'm
mediately followed by a sale at 24O, an ad-
vance of % points over yesterdays closing.
From this it sold down to 371a, and at
1890 was quoted at 241 bid.
The Standard again raised its price this
morning, but only ten cents. 1t now stands
at 26O, and for the first time since the
boom struck the market the exchange
price is below the Standards.
Reports from all the fields indicate that
there is no cessation in activity, and the
prospect for new territory goes on with
uGabated zeal.
From 1890 until noon the oil market was
quite active, and it has now nearly recov-
cred from the big break of yesterday. The
highest point reached this forenoon was
$2.57 and the lowest $2.35. At noon oil was
quoted at $3.50 bid. Spectators are get
ting over their scare of yesterday and are
gaining confidence.
The activity in the oil market is having
a stimulating effect on slocal securities.
Philadelphia Gas. westinghouse and other
local stocks went up this morning.
BRADFORD, Pa, April 1S.-The break in
oil yesterday has killed the speculative
inclinations and the brokers' Office is de-
serted. as all holders of oil were cleaned
out yesterday. The Standard is paying
S2.60 for credit balances, a gain of 10 cents
over yesterday.
