The selection of Messrs. Fuller and
Brewer has not been altogether unexpected.
The former holds the highest judicial po-
sition in the United States, and no other
choice could have given the tribunal the
importance which he Will confer by reason
of his office Mr.. Brewer, as chairman of
the special Venezuelan commission, has
perhaps obtained better insight into the
merits of the controversy than any other
man in public life. He is also iurist of
high attachments and wide experience.
While the formal assent of King Oscar
to serve as the fifth arbitrator has not
been givens it is understood that an inti-

Sir Charles Russell is lord chief justice
of England and holds the same relative
position as Chief Justice Fuller. He visit

Secretary Olney in Boston and arranged
the plan for submitting the Venezuelan
contention to arbitration. Tho agreement
which now forms the basis for the treaty

one Near His Own Class on
Thursday Night.

James Judge will meet Jack" Nc
Williams, of New London, Conn, in a
fifteen round bout at Music hall on
Thursday night. Judge was to have
met Jack" Collier, of Long Island
City, but the latter was put out by
Jimmy" Haudler last week before the
Polo Athletic club, of New York city
and the Scranton lightweight had tc
take on another candidate.
McWilliams has long string of VIC
tories to his credit, among the men he
defeated being Dan McDermott, who
fought a draw here recently with Pat
Murphy. He fought a ten-round draw
with Sam Tonkin, who was recently
put out by Judge in four rounds be-
fore the Fifth Avenue Athletic club
in New York city.
If Judge wins the coming battle his
claims for recognition from kid" Nc
Partland, Charley McKeever and 9TH
ers cannot be overlooked. An engage
ment was recently made by Jack
Skelly, as Judges representative, to
meet McPartland's manager in the
New York illustrated News office, but
the Mcfarland people did not mater
ialize. The Judge Murphy fight is off.

joy in theCamp Of the Scranton pilgrims

yesterday afternoon to play two games
and thus make up for one of the two
prevented by rain on Thursday and
Friday The champion Grays thought
ii a good opportunity to check their
spell of hard luck at the expense of
Griftin's Miners, but the reverse was
the result. Scranton Outbatted and
outpitched the veteran team and won
both games though the Grays had an
early lead in each contest.
Twenty-Five hundred disappointed
spectators saw it happen. Harper
pitched the first game and gave but
three hits. Gillon was in the box in the
final struggle and kept the Grays from
scoring in all but one inning.
FIRST GAME.
Providence in the second inning Sc
cured the first run on q hit and steal
by Lyons, a wild pitch and Bonners
error. 1t was the only run that fell TO
their portion. In the fourth Scranton
tied the score on a walk to Beard, his
steal and a cracking hit by big Bill'
Massey.
Meanwhile both Harper and Braun
who was in the box for the home team,
were pitching good ball. though the
miner batsmen Were showing the
greater inclination TO hit. Peter Eagan
connected safely in the eighth for one
base and O'Brien was hit by a pitched
ball. The two We're advanced a base on
Boards sacrifice. 1t then fell to Daly's
lot 10 bring in the runs and he arose to
the occasion by singing both miners
home. Massey hit to center and Lyons
fumhlad the ball allowing DAILY to
reach third and Big Bill" second. Bon
ner recovered his batting eye which
has long been in diEuse. and drove the
ball to right field, Daily and Massey
bringing in the final runs of the game
When IT was all over, Harper had
pitched q remarkable game. He was a
little wild, but was well supported. He
struck out seven batsmen and gave
but three hits. Score:

SECOND GAME.

The Grays tried to change their luck
by going first to the field and the
scheme almost worked successfully,
Eagan saving the game for the miners
by putting the ball over left field fence
with two on the bases.
Scranton's first run was by O'Brien
who got walk in the first inning and
scored on hits by Beard and DAILY. In
the third inning Eagan singled and
stole second. He was put out at the
plate while trying to score on O'Brien's
hit, O'Brien reaching second on the
play and coming home on Days hit.

Joe" Bernstein, the New York boxer,
who recently appeared in this city,
was defeated in Saturday night
bout In New York city. The Sunday
Herald says OF the event: "The three
bouts scheduled for last night at the
National Sporting club, St Nicholas
avenue and One Hundred and Twenty
fourth street, went the limit in each
case, and were productive of good
fights. The main bout Of the evening,
between BILLY" O'Donnell, Of Mem
phis, and Joe" Bernstein, of the Bow
cry, resulted in a carefully won victory
for the former, who never tried until
the last two rounds, when he made a
mark of his man, placing left hooks
and right swings at his pleasure. The
Bowery champion was very much out
paced in the last five rounds"
