BIG CATCH. The Courts TClll Act as Urupirs to Decide Whathtr It Whs Fsir One. Suit was entered vesterdav bv the Phila delphia Base Ball Club, Limited, against Joseph Mulvey tor retaining which ne naa received from them by what they alleged to be fraud, deceit and false pretenses." The affidavit ot suit is signed by "William J. Shettsliue, who states that on December 13 lqst he completed negotiations with Mulvey as to an engagement with him for the season of beginning April 1 and ending October 31. Mulvey, he says, fixed the terms npou which he would play at 52,750, provided $1,250 of that amount was paid to him in advance.

On the next day, Mr. Shettsline continues, he met Mulvey by agreement and a contract was signed and the sum of 1,250 was paid to him in advances and Mulvey gave a receipt for the same. Continuing, Mr. Shettsline avers On December 13, 189, Mulvey declared and promised to the officers ot the Players' League club of Philadelphia to play base ball with them for the season, no matter what he might agree to do lor the Philadel-phia Base Ball Club, and that they couldrely on him keeping his promise, and not keeping his promise to play with the Philadelphia Club." Mr. Shettsline then states that Mulvey has refused to play with the plaintiffs, and still engaged in playing with the Players' League, and has retained and converted the sum of $1,250 to his own use and has not returned the same.

In conclusion, the plaintiff states Mulvey lives in Providence, Pw 1., but that, as he is playing in this city to-day (Saturday), they petitioned the court to issue a capias for his arrest, placing bail at $1,500. Mr. Mulvey during the afternoon was arrested on the capias, and bail was entered by J. Earle Wagner. Mike Kelly Kecelves the Pennant.

Knauss seems to be in demand. What's the matter with Conroy? The meagre attendance was discouraging. Syracuse and Athletics play this afternoon. Carmen played like a wooden man yesterday. The "Cyclones" are playing championship ball.

Simon is something of a favorite In Philadelphia. The Syracuse Stars enjoyed their feast hugely. John B. Day says only one club ean live in New York. There will be a championship game at Gloucester to-day.

Helmbold would doubtless develop Into a first-class pitcher. Hcaly and Welch are the "long and short" battery of the Association. The real name of Glenalvin, Chicago's second baseman, is J. Donling. Crawford played aniagniflcentirame In right field yesterday.

A prettier exhibition is seldom witnessed. On September 28 the Omaha Clnbdnplicated Minneapolis' feat of winning three games lu one day. St. Paul was Omaha's victim. Louisville bas shut out every team in the Association except St.

Louis. Yesterday was a close call tor the Browns, but they escaped, to the chagrin ot their opponents. "There was a time," savs Jim Mutrle, "when I imagined the equal of Buck Kwing did not exist. My great disappointment has opened ray eyes, and ean see a doten younn rolipw on tb ball flaM tortiny wtio will be as famous at Jef and Kwlog louie day." in of ASSOCIATION PENNANT CONTESTS Frankford Defeats Oxford by a Score of 14 to Xortb End Loses to Tacony and Nicctown Wins from Manaynnk Other Scores. The University of Pennsylvania football team met the State College eleven yesterday afternoon for the first time, and sent them home vanquished by the score ot 20 to 0.

The visitors presented a heavier team than Pennsylvania's, and their rush-Hue work was perfection, while their clever interfering won them ground more than once. Pennsylvania did not play as well as usual. The rushers let their men right through and did not appear to understand what interfering was. The hacks played much better than the last game, very little fumbling being indulged in, and the team as a whole tackled very strongly. For State College Captain McLean put tip the best game, making several capital rushes through the centre.

Fay and Foster also ran well, while Hile, Motz and Bohn distinguished themselves for their tackling. For the red and blue Dewey, as usual, was everywhere aud his tackling was a-ieature the game. Vail too did even lietter tack ling, and very few men managed to pass him. Thornton made several gooi ruu arounds and Griffith, who played yesterday for the first time, put up an excellent game. Huidekoper and -Church both showed up well as half-backs, whiie Thayer made a number ot pretty dashes through to centre.

In the first half Huidekoper made two touchdowns, from the second of which Thayer kicked a goal. In the second half Church made a long run, ending in a touchdown, and Thayer kicked the goal. State College twice came near scoring but both times lost the ball by fumbling. Just before the end of the second half Scbofi fell on the ball behind the State College goal and scored the last touchdown. goal was kicked.

Schofl" hurt his leg in the second half and Vail took his place, Church playing quarter, and Camp, of last year's Lafayettee team, taking Church's place at half The first half was three-quarters of an hour long, the second 30 minutes.

I.AFAltTTE COLLEGE EBATZX. The Franklin and Marshall Rnsh Line Too Strong for the Ejgloiii ins. SPECIAL TO THE Lakcaster, Oct. 11. This atternoon the Franklin and Marshall College football team and the Lafayette College club played the most exciting and hotly-contested game ever seen in Lancaster.

A brilliant audi ence witnessed the contest. Both teams played a superb game, but the great strength anil skill ot Captain Irvine bovs. as evidenced in their game with Piincetou a week ago, was again demonstrated to-dav, and thev downed Lafayette by 18 points to 10. At the end ot the hrst halt each side scored a touch-down, yielding goal. In the second half the suiverior strength of the Franklin and Marshall rush line cave them two successive touch downs, yielding goal.

notwithstanding the brilliant running of their opponents, notably while iavette was only able to score a safety touch down. At several decisions of the nnipire Captain Fox, of the Lafayette, kicked lustily. His defeat, however, is due to the steadiness of the support given to each other by Captain Irvine men and the invincible front of the home club's rush line. North End Defeated at Tacony. A great surprise was furnished Testerdav at Tacony, when orth End was defeated by the local club.

Both sides had outstrong teams, but the home club played the best combination game. Tacony won the toss and Campbell started the ball for North Kndat4.1o. The home team immediately took the ball down iuto their opponents' quarters, but could not pass the fine defense. tnd then rushed the ball up to -la-cony's end, only to have it returned, Car-rington just missing the visitors' goal with a hot shot About fifteen minutes before half time Tacony was successful, Williamson notching a point for them. This proved the only point scored by either team, Tacony eventually inning by one goal to nothing.

It was soon apparent that Manayunk had no show, their opponents doing almost as they liked with them. Goal after goal was added, the score eventually standing: JJieetown, Manayunk, 0. The goals wers kicked by Mettle (2), Agnew (2), Davis and Asley. The following were the teams MANAYUNK. Hagan D.

Play lor a while was very spirited, ut the visitors soon showed they were in much better practice than the home players, besides having a much heavier team. Play continued for an hour and a quarter. At the end of the second half the score was 30 to 0 in favor of the visitors. The Dela ware men let the visitors get only six points in the second half and played a fine game, too late to avail them anything.

The visitors had a strong rush line and did sharp road work. Hossinger, Handy and K. Martin distinguished themselves on the home team. Frankford Wins the First Game. An exciting game was played at Frankford yesterday between the Frankford and Enterprise Clubs, which resulted in a victory tor the Frankfords after a barer struggle by 2 goals to 1.

rrECIAL TO THIS IWOUIHKiV. New Have, Oct. 11. Yale i- A at SEVEN THOUSAND AT GLOUCESTER Gascon Wins the Kich White Plains Handicap and Tournament Captures the New Rochelle Stakes at Morris Park Other Turf News. The most successful day's racing the South Jersey Jockey Club have had since the Gloucester track was Inaugurated was that of yesterday.

It was a good day lor the horses and the people. The track was just heavy enough for good going, and it seemed to suit all the horses. There were between seven and eight thousand people present, and among them were fully one thousand women. Money appeared to be plentiful, and the booaraakers were kept busy filling out tickets. It was a bad day for favorites, and not one of them won.

King Arthur was the- horse selected to w'n the first race, but he did not finish 1, 2, 3. Gypsy filly was given the race by a head, but many people who were close to the wire believed that Rosette should have been given the decision. Gold Vase filly was heavily backed for the second race at odds of 2 to 1 and no plane money, but Gatlin, with 8 to 1 on him, ratj away with the purse. Shakespeare and Painkiller were more heavily backed tlian.Fozhill iu the third race, but the latter captured it easily. The best race ot the day was the fourth.

There were nine starters, and money was invested on all ot them. Clamor was the favorite, but she didn't get a place. A barrel of money was behind Juirgler to win, and those who backed him were given a good run for their money, as King Idle oniv beat him iu the last lew strides. After the race King Idle was sold to Mr. Ogelvie for 1,300, 5200 more than his selling price.

The biggest surprise ot the day came in the fifth race. Sea Bird was the sure thing of the day. Everybody said a cineh 6u the race, and very little money was placed against her. Keyser, was the dark horse, and he paid his admirers 3 for 1. Leontine was another sure thing that did i i I great field of horses, and a new-comer, came in tor public favor.
