change and the base bail hotizon clearR
The wheeling club has secured an OPP
lion on the Stone property on the Is
land. -
Yesterday morning, President Power,
Of the Interstate league, and MI. Del
splaine,- Of the wheeling club,
were out early in their hunt Tor home
for the base bali club. First they saw
General Manager Lawsoh. OF the
Wheeling & Belmont Bridge Company,
and tried to secure lease on the bridge
mark ut the Island end Of the Bridge
mort bridge. Mr.. Lawson did not take a
week In turning down the application
OF the base ball people, In. fact, he told
Measrs. Power and Delaplalne in few
words that 1t would be impossible to Sc
cure that site.
Then the base ball peoplewent to the
owners OF the Stone property, on the
lower part Of the Island, Just above the
State Fair grounds. Here they met with
success as Mrs, Stone consented TO give
the club an option on the grounds for
one week. This was done early in the
afternoon. Practically 1t is settled that
the Stone property will be-taken, thus
at the same time settling II that Wheel
ing will see professional base bail this
season.
Mr.. Delaplaine at once engaged E. B.
FranEheIm TO draw plans and specifca-
tons for the grandstand and other
buildings for the ball park. These will
be completed before the end OF the
week and It Is likely that the sound OF
hammer and saw will be heard on the
Stone lot early next week.
After the grounds had been secured,
Mr.. Delaplaine had conference with
Jack Darrah. who had come down
from Steubenville, and in q short time
the "Broncho" had attached his sig
nature to a contract that stipuiates
among other things that he Is to man
age, captain and play second base for
the Wheeling team. This will prove q
popular move. There isn't a harder
worker In the profession than Darrah,
and he will play the game OF his life in
the Nail City uniform. i5at
1t is not yet settled just when the
Wheeling team will report to Manager
Darrah, but It will be wfthina few days.
Darrah will have the players report at
6teubenville. where the preliminary
practice will be done, as the grounds
here cannot possibly be In shape for
work before the opening OF the season,

PITTSBURG. PA, July 1.-THE almost
unprecedented rain-storm which was
general throughout Western Pennsyl-
vana last evening did not, so far as has

of rain fell In twenty minutes Of this
time one inch fell. breaking the record in
this vicinity. excepting the memorable
cloudburst Of 1874, when l15 people were
swept away.
The most remarkable incident reported
was at Allegheny Cemetery. Plttsburg,
The cemetery is on a hillside with a steep
slope towards Butler street. and IS sur
rounded by a i0-foOt stone wall. The
wall retained the water until it formed
a lake 10 feet deep Then the wall gave
way. and the water damaged or demol-
ished all the houses on the opposite side
Of Butler street, facing the cemetery.
The damage In Pittsburg and Allegheny
