Burglars at Work Along the Pike
Saturday Night.
An Unsuccessful Attempt to Enter
Stamm's Place - ALT Davis
Residence Robbed Pickups by

Burglars were at work some time
Saturday night or Sunday morning.
along the National road, east Of the
city. So far as could be learned. they
made two attempts to enter residences
in that locality, one of which was un-
successful. The first attempt was
made at the Stamm Hotel, opposite
Wheeling Park. The burglars used a
Jimmy" with which they attempted
to pry open the front door. The door
was locked ON the inside with a heavy
iron bolt, which resisted their strength
and they gave up in disgust. The
marks made by the instrument could
De seen upon the door yesterday.
All. Davis residence. over Shirk's
grocery, az Altenheim station, was en-
tered through transOm in the sec
ond story Members Of the family were
awake at three o'clock Sunday morn
ing, attending to a child who had the
toothache. and the burglary must have
been committed between that hour and
daylight.
The robbers secured a store box,
which was carried up from the grocery,
and by standing upon it managed to
work at the the transom, which was
forced open. They carried of Mr..
Davis trousers, but did not disturb
anything else In the pockets were
some valuable papers and about $15 in
money.
There is no clue to the thieves.

DIED SUDDENLY.
e. T. Dalton Expired Yesterday Afternoon
of Heart Disease.

OF heArt Disease.
E. T. Dalton, of Sistersville.
died very suddenly yesterday after
noon of heart disease. He came to
Wheeling Saturday to visit James
Emery, who lives at No. 2 Delaware
street, and started toward the city
about three o'clock to take the after,
noon Ohio River train for his home.
He walked as far as the toll house on
the new steel bridge when he suddenly
fell 10 the ground. He was carried in
side the toll house, and DR.. Best was
summoned. He expired within five or
six minutes. The doctor pronounced
heart disease the cause of his sudden
death. The body was removed in the
patrol wagon to the home of Mr..
Emery, and Will be sent to Sistersville
to-day.
Mr.. Dalton was apparently in good
health and spirits yesterday, and death
came without warning. The Coroner
made an examination and found that
death was due to natural causes. Mr..
Dalton lived on the Island until about
two years ago, when he removed to Sis
tersville. He is about fOrty-two years
Of age, married, and has one child.

THE NATIONAL LEAGUE.
THE SPIDERS WON BOTH.

st. Louis, No, September 15.-Cleve-
land and st. Louis played two games
to-day. The Spiders won both. Kiss
niger was a mark in the first, twenty
four hits being made off him, and Te-
beau's men could have made it 1O4 had
they so desired.
The second game was well and close
" played. McDOugall did good work,
while Knell was hit hard. Young sue
ceeded him and also received a lively
FASTENING. An error by Conner gave
Cleveland the game. 1t was the first
Sunday game of Young's career. His
contract absolves him from playing on
Sunday. but the pennant race is so
close that he volunteered to go in. The
game was called in the seventh on ac-
count of darkness. Won Der Abe, Of
the Browns, protested the game to
President Young, claiming that O'Day

THE PENNANT RACE.
Baltimore Apparently Has 'Cinch"
On First Place,
And Philadelphia is Pushing Cleve-
land Hard for Second Place-Sun-
day Games in the National
League-Other Sport, Local and
Telegraphic.

The pen-ant race in the National
League is drawing to close. Balti-
more leads the clubs, and only a sue
cession of accidents or bad luck viii
displace the team. 1t is almost a GER
tainty that the Orioles will again finish
in first place. The fight for second
place is more interesting, between Phil
adelphia and Cleveland. The Spiders
have lead Of seventeen points, but if
the Quakers gain as rapidly during the
coming week as they did last week.,
this Will be wiped out. The Phillies
won six and lost two games, and the
Clevelands won one and lost two.
Both teams played on their home
grounds All the Philadelphia players
are in good condition, and the club is
stronger to-day than it has been at any
time during the year. Pittsburg is
tied with Brooklyn for fourth place,
and has three more games to play at
home, after which it meets Cleveland,
Chicago Louisville, and 81. Louis.
The Pirates will probably finish fourth
or fifth. A fan" predicts that the first
six clubs will finish the season in the
following order: Baltimore, Philadel-
phia, Cleveland, Brooklyn, Pittsburg,
Chicago.
The league magnates have decided
by vote that the first and second teams
in the race shall contest for the Tenn
pie cup. This was the intention Of the
donor, W. c. Temple, Of this city. The
original terms as printed last year,
when the cup was for the first time
competed for, however, are not clear
on this point. One clause reads: The
team which from the record appears at
the close of the championship season
of 1894 to have won second place shall
have the right to challenge the team
which shall have won first place" etc.
According to this clause, the right Of
the second team to compete for the cup
was confined to the season of 1894. No
provision was made for the disposition
of the cup for succeeding seasons.
This naturally led to heated discus
sions. New York, the second team last
year. won the cup, and claimed that its
team was entitled to defend the trophy
by playing the first team of 1895 the
required series OF games. To settle
the question President Young called
for mail vote. and the majority of
clubs voted in favor Of the proposition
/ that the first and second teams IN the
race compete for the cuD.-Pittsburg
/ Post.
It is very likely that several OF
Wheeling's players will find places on
| the team which represents this city
next year. Davis, Kane, Violet and
Ball are almost certain 10 come back,
1t is also probable that several Of the
Warren players will be signed, includ-
ing Catcher Smith, the two Wagners,
Short Stop Ritchey, and possibly Bar
rett. If Ritchey and Ball are signed,
the latter will play right field. How
ever. it IS too early to discuss next sea
sons problems, as it might be said OF
the club management in this respect,
that 1.-The wish is father to the
thought"

CORBETT AND FITZSIMMONS.
New York, September 15.-There has

stated that there was a deal by which
Corbett, Brady and Vendig were to re-
ceive the proceeds OF the kaleidoscope
privilege, and has threatened not to
fight unless he was given a share.
Joe Vendig, of the Florida Athletic
Club, said tonight. 81 would like to
say, Mr.. Brady or Mr.. FitZsimmons not
withstanding, that in view Of the fact
that the Florida Athletic Club has Of
fered Corbett and Fitzsimmons a purse
Of $4,000 to fight for; the club feels
that if there are any privileges from
which profit viii be reaped when the
fight comes off at Dallas, that these be-
long to the club.
In reference to the report circulated
that 1 am interested in the Eidelo-

am not interested in that invention, and
the kaleidoscope will not be permitted
