ever yesterday in defeating the Pirates.

home run in the first inning. netting four
runs Weyhing twirled the sphere in
great style for the locals and the visit
ors were utterly unable to solve his
curves. only six hits being secured off
his delivery.
Despite the fact that the final score was
rather one-sided, the game was we'll
played throughout, and to a certain ex-
tent interesting, owing to the exception
ally fine fielding on both sides. For the
home team Myers, Reitz and Gettman
carried off the fielding honors. Bert
signalized his debut as a Senator by MAX
ing a great stop of Gray's terrific bound
er in the first inning. Reitz committed
q larceny of hit from Schriver in the
fifth inning. Gettman's hard running
catch of Davis fly in the sixth called
forth much applause. Jake simply rob-
bed Harry of a home run.
In the first inning Selbach sent the ball
into center garden for a single. Gettman
singled TO right. Doyle laced the ball into
the same territory. scoring the Baron,
and Anderson capped the climax and

bark Maria Dolores. of Bilboa, which was
captured by the United States cruiser
Minneapolis May q. twelve miles of Cape
San Juan. arrived here today in charge
of a prize crew under command Of En-
sign Sticht. The bark had aboard eleven
Spaniards. including Capt. Filebrag, 80
tons Of soft Spanish coal and $50 tons of
patented fuel for the Spanish fleet at
San Juan.
The capture was made at daylight on
the 21st, when the bark was within two
hours vun of port. According to the
story told by a member Of the prize crew,
the Minneapolis was fired on from the
San Juan fortfications while che was
chasing the little bark. The cruiser was
twelve miles distant, but this had no ef-
feet on the Spaniards. and they wasted
barrels Of shells trying to hit the mark.
Every shot. however. was wild and
missed the target by miles. No attention
was paid to this display of fireworks, and
after a while 1t ceased. The Minneapolis
had no difficulty in capturing the Dolores.
At first. the captain was disposed to strike
for his port, but he was helpless and
heaved to without having to be fired on.
Ensign sticht and six seamen from the
Minneapolis were sent aboard to bring
the prize to Charleston. The Spaniards
were without food, as their supply was
entirely exhausted. Enough provisions
for q months cruise were put aboard the
bark. and with shout from the cruiser,
the prize got on. Two days out Capt File

NO MORE POLES IN SQUARES.
Park and Tree Commission Has Come
to That Conclusion.

No more poles will be erected in the
squares. The Park and Tree Commission
has so decided, and has issued its dictum
to that effect. At a meeting of the COM
mission yesterday a resolution was adopt
ed that no more poles of any kind be per-
mitted to be erected in the parks and
squares, or wires put upon trees, and that
the park and tree force be instructed 10
report violations of this order TO the
chairman of the commission. The Brush
Electric Light Company and the police
and fire departments were notified OF the
action of the board.
Chairman Stone, when seen about the
matter, said the commission had decided
that the time had come 10 put stop TO
filing up The squares with poles. Some
of these squares are literally filled with
them now" he said.
DIR. Stone was asked If the commission
had the power to enforce this order. The
commission has full control of the parks
and squares" he replied mo poles can
be placed in them without our permis-
sion
DR.. Stone was asked If he were aware
that the Brush Electric Light Company
had placed a number of poles an the
squares recently He replied that this was
one reason for the adoption of the reso
luton. The electric light company had
been given permission to place poles in the
squares on condition that they be placed
In line with the trees. This condition had
not been adhered TO.
docs not the new plan of electric light
ing require four lights In each square?"
DR. Stone was asked.
II cannot say as to that he replied.
Anyway, that is problem which the
electric light company will have to solve.
The poles will have to be placed in such
a manner as not 10 obstruct the squares"
That the appearance of the squares is
greatly marred by the presence of num-
Der of poles, many of them unsightiy, is
we'll known. The effort of the Park and
Tree Commission to bring about a reform
in this respect will receive general APP
prevail

WAR WOULDN'T STOP THEM.
Coastwise Steamers Would Continue
Running.

The officials of the Ocean Steamship
company have noticed no decrease in the
freight handled by their line since tho war
scare has been, on, It has been stated that
shippers have been holding back stuff with
the view of inducing the steamship com-
panies all along the coast name lower
rates In order to get chance to handle
the freight. 1t was said the shipp ers
make show of being afraid to shin on
account of the probability of war and the
uncertainty of freight reaching its Jesti
nation and being properly disposed of
This may be the case at some points. hut
the officials say it is not true of Savan-
nah.
There has been only one product on
which receipts have fallen. This is . Of
ton, many of the interior dealers having
ceased buying. This affects the railroads
and also the coastwlse vessels, as much
cotton is shipped to the European norris
via New York and Boston. The buyers
have suspended operations on account of
the uncertainty of the situation in so far
as war is concerned.
Speaking of the course TO be pursued nv
the steamship line in the event of war
Vice President Egan said yesterday that
its vessels would probably continue to be
run. He admitted that the passenger lists
would naturally decrease, but said pro-
visions for their accommodation and en-
tertainment would probably be maintain
ed. There would be a great deal of freight
to be shipped even in time of war. and the
steamship line would be right in for its
transportation.
Mr.. Egan said an additional expense for
the operation of the vessels with this coun-
try at war with another would be encoun-
tered in the insurance. War rates are
very high, as The probabilities Of vessel
being captured or sunk is not regarded as
slight.
The vessels of all the coastwise lines
would doubtless continue to be run as long
as freight was offered them and the in.
surance companies did not demand too
high rates

New York steamer. on which he intended
sailing. Palmer denies being criminally
implicated and stated he was in the en-
ploy of Mr. Webster, and being an ex-
pert bicyclst, was in the South for the
purpose of training. He was more than
willing to straighten out the matter in
order TO be released.
