VIRGINIA DEFEATS YALE.
The Virginia Battery Proved Too Much
For the Sons of ''Old Eli.

Richmond, Va. April 9.-"And now
we'll lick poor Yale" was the refrain of
a song sung by the students who con-
stitutcd the rooters' brigade from the
University of Virginia here to-day. They
did lick poor Yale, too, and badly at
that. for the sons of Old Eli could not hit
Summersgill. Virgiias great twirler, and
thereby hangs a tale. Summersgill was
the whole thing. He was not given any
support to speak of, but he did not seem
to rely upon support. He just pitched
ball from start to finish, and he and Hill.
the clever little Varsity catcher. played
the game by themselves. Yale's heavy
batters essayed to hit him. and many
made vigorous stabs at the horse-hide rs
delivered by him. but when they made
the stabs the ball was somewhere else,
usually in Hills hands, and as a result
nine men struck out. In the seventh in
ming the Yale team began to abuse UNI
pire Belts, and one of the Ellis on the
coaching line went SO far as to accuse
him of dishonesty. Belts ordered him
from the line, but he refused to go, ana
his captain instructed him to defy the
umpire. Then Belts, after waiting a
minute, as provided by the rules, for his
order TO De obeyed, awarded Tue Sihic 10
Virginia by score of nine to nothing.
The two teams surrounded Belts and be-
sought him to reconsider and recall MS
decision. but he refused and then they
decided to continue the game. Ihey
asked Belts to continue to umpire, but
again he very properly refused and left

continued through the eighth inning.

AS VIEWED IN LONDON.
War Can Only Be Averted By the Haul
ing Down of Spanish Flag.

Special London Gable Letter.
Copyright, 1898, by Associated Press.l
London. April Off anything was
wanting to confirm the European belief
that the Cuban crisis has reached IN
impasse from which there is no issue but
war or the hauling down of the Spanish
flag. ii has been found in President Me
Einley's reply to the ambassadorial note,
presented at Washington on Thursday
last, SO strikingly reasserting the dc
termination that there rs only one way to
prevent the United States intervening
TO end the intolerable situation.
AS a matter Of fact, no confirmation
was wanted. for Europe's only real hope
of a peaceful solution of the question
was based on the belief that when they
realized the futility of the high-strung
talk about their honor, the Spaniards
would accept the alternative and sur
render Great Britain has nothing to
thank Spain for. Whenever commercial
questions have been raised Great Britain
has found Spain obstructive, intractable
and arbitrary. as the United States finds
her to-day, and the medium of sympathy
found iii some quarters Is simply sort
of sentimental pity at the fact that Spain
should be deprived of her last great
colony. One of the few discordant notes
in the pean of sympathy with the aims
of the United States comes from quar-
ter it was least expected from. The
Freeman's Journal. the organ of the Irish
Nationalist leader, Mr. John Dillon, Il
paper claiming to represent the Irish
party after fiat-footedly expressing the
hope that Spain will win in the expected
war, says:
In our opinion, the United States
would be better employed helping Spain
to make autonomy a success, rather than
enforcing a deplorable war. The latest
advices show the Americans do not want
to deliver Cuba to the Cuhans.'
The Irish Independent League has pro-
tested against this pro-Spanish declara-
ton. and has passed a resolution of SYM
pathy with the United States. llapudiat-
ing the declaration of the Freemans
Journal
During the course of a conversation. a
high official Of the British Foreign Of
flee said:
THE Presidents policy is statesman
like and essentially humane, and while
we may view apprehensively the nlti-
mate results to America herself of the
necessity for introducing order in the
government of Cuba. the solution of the
insufferable scandal will not be too dear
~ purchased at the cost of war. The
maleficent rule of Spain in Cuba has got
to end now, for neither America nor any
one else will trust her promises. SO often
broken. especially after the tell-tale cor
respondence which resulted in the recall
of Senior Dupuy de Lome.
Nevertheless added the Foreign Of
flee official, America hes taken up an
unenviable task. After driving out the
Spaniards. she will have to send troops
to crush the Cubans who are rebels at
heart. and who will not submit tamely
TO any form of government which will
deprive them of their occupation of fight
