the weather bureau were suspended yes
terday afternoon long enough for Port
land and Lewiston to try conclusions on
to consider that it took these two ball
teams two hours and three-quarters to
complete the afternoon Job, you can see
that the rain did first rate and was very
kind and considerate.
To begin with the fact may as well be
They haven't a team yet in Lewiston that
can win very many games from Beasie
McGIlirk's wonders as our several
neighbors are sometimes fond of calling
them, but yesterday was one of the times
sure enough. The grounds were in
execrable shape for ball playing, despite
the fact that saw dust had been thrown
about with lavish hand, or shovel rather.
Pretty little ponds of water were be-
sprinkled here and there about the out
field, and it was ten to one that the ball
alighted in one when it didn't meet a
fielder's glove. The grounds were very
slippery and punky, and running was
difficult, not to say impossible. The wet
grounds bore especially hard on the
pitchers, and bases on balls were as thick
as the rain drops were in the morning.
The game progressed very evenly up to
the sixth inning, when Portland took to
batting Killeen, scoring four runs. Then
we thought we had the game, and settled
back in our seats to have some fun with
these Lewistons of Mr.. Garrity's.
The sequel is heart breaking. When the
visitors came to the bat next inning,
Miller, who had been pitching fairly good
ball seemed to have lost complete control.
One, two, three, four men were given
their bases by wild pitching, and then
the monotony was happily relieved by a
fly to Dave Coughlin by Pulsifer. But
the respite was only temporary. Gilbert
singled, Sullivan hit for two bases, then
France drew four bad ones. Burrill hit
for two bases and Dolan did the same. By
that time it dawned on Captain McGuirk
that possibly some other pitcher couldn't
He retired the side, and after that Lewis
ton failed to score. But the deed had been
done and hope for 1--WE uns," had flown.
Had Miller been taken out when in all
reason he should have been, the result
might have been different.
Lewiston's new catcher, Kelley, made
his first appearance, and his work was
very, very bad. His throwing was per-
haps the worst ever seen on these grounds
by professional catcher. Edgar was
substituted in the seventh and did good
work BurriH who was once member
of a Portland team played left field for

The Lewiston infleld, except first base
is apparently strong, and the team made

idea they would.
All the same we can beat them four
games out of five. The attendance con-
sidering the weather was remarkable.
There were about 1000 people on the
grounds. The special train from Lewis
ton was cancelled on account of the rain.

DELEGATES FROM ABROAD.
The officials of the post office DEPART
ment have been entertaining the inter-
national postal congress in this city
during the last two weeks This congress
is composed of representatives of foreign
governments sent from among the officials
who have to do with postal matters Con-
gress appropriated $50, 900 for the enter
tainment of these delegates, who number
1875 or $50. A part of the entertainment
is an excursion to Niagara Falls, Chicago,
St. Louis and back to Boston. 1t would
strike the average American that $50, 200
ought to entertain such a body Of men
pretty well, but the foreigners have COM
planned not little. One or two informed
the committee of entertainment that they
would go on the excursion if they could
have compartment cars, otherwise not
When they were taken down to Old Point
Comfort there were not quite so many
state rooms on the steamboat as had been
arranged for, several having been assigned
to some ladies who were on board. The
delegates objected because of the lack of
the staterooms, and were told that they
could have them if they insisted; but that
it would be necessary to turn the ladies
out of the rooms. Most of them said at
once that they would inconvenience them
sleeves rather than have this done, but the
representatives Of one great and gallant
nation, not the English or the German,
demanded that the ladies be turned out in
order that they might have the rooms. So
it has happened that the officials of the
post office department who have been
entertaining the delegates wear tired
look at times.

Turkey Submtes . New Frontier Scheme "a
the Ambassadors.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, July 90 At the
last sitting Of the peace conference
Tewfk Pasha, the Turkish minister Of
foreign affairs, submitted to the con
ference a new frontier scheme which
was unacceptable to the powers and the
ambassadors thereupon informed Tewfik
that the conference would adjourn IN.
til he brought written acceptance BY
his government of the frontier line
traced by the military attaches.
The ambassadors assembled at 1C
o'clock but finding that Tewfk Pasha
did not come, adjourned to the Austrian
embassy, where Tewfk Pasha presented
himself at noon, with the excuse that
the sultan had detained him and the
military commission at the Yildiz
Kiosk. Tewfik explained that the sui.
tan had appointed Marshals ZekH
Pasha and Saaded- Din Pasha as new
military delegates to negotiate peace.
The ambassadors unanimously and posi-.
lively declined to discuss the questions
with anybody except with Tewfik
Pasha
Although the orders recently issued
have been countermanded 5000 troops
are still held in readiness to start for the
island Of Crete at the shortest notice.
The ambassadors have informed the
porte that they wish written declara.
ton as to the intentions Of the Turkish
government, which have hitherto been
communicated orally by Tewfik Pasha.
The ambassadors have stated that if this
b not forthcoming they will suspend
the peace negotiations and refer the
whole matter to their respective gov
ernments with a view of adopting CO.
arcive measures.
