 Secretary Pearce of the Buffalo club of the Eastern league has been at Gin. einnati trying to engage players. He wants to capture Little Billee'' Fox of the Indianapolis team and Miller Hug gins of St Paul.
 The injury to Emmet Heidrick. the centerfielder of the St Louis club of the American league, is more serious than at first supposed. It develops that he snapped a tendon in his right leg when sprinting after a long fly at Baltimore. He may be compelled to retire permanently from the game.
 Herman Long did not go west with the Boston team. He has bad wrist. It has leaked Otft that he is not engaged for next season, as has been supposed, but he is in receipt of such Q big sal ary that it Is doubtful if any American club would care to pay him more than he is now receiving.
 Mir Stacy of the Springfield Union, who writes the up to date sporting news for that paper, was present at the game yesterday ssSted" had no chance to smile until the eighth in- ming was over and in the ninth he not only smiled but he enjoyed several good laughs at the expense of his fel- low newspaper workers.
 Milt West, the one time hard hitter, claims to have made the longest hit ever seen on the diamond It was at Detroit, and against Pete Daniels, the star leather bender for the Detroits. The ball was q low, fast one. West sent it over the right center fence. Van Derbeck, who then owned the team. used to keep a man on horseback to chase the spheres that went over, they were so numerous. After the game the rider came into the grounds and in- auired who it was that made such q hit. When told, he said: When l caught up to it. out near Gratiot aye nue, the horses tongue was hanging out of his mouth at least foot. and he was so tired had to get of aud walk him back"
