The Norfolks, Defeated by 12 to 2, Bid Farewell to Union Park and the Orioles. PLATED GOOD BALL HERE. Sechrist and Newton Are Fitted Against Horton and Brown. JPlenty of Work for Outfielders Again the Wind Is Against the Hitting Champions Do Better with the Stick A Fast and Interesting Contest. The Norfolk team bade farewell to the Orioles yesterday afternoon for the season of 1897 and left on the boat for home, where it is to play the Brooklyn team today.

The frame at Union Park yesterday was more one-sided than that of the day before. The visitors made more costly mlsplays ia the field and the champions' batting was a good deal stronger. In spite of a number of errors on both sides, the contest was Tull of good fielding, of which the visitors did their snare. It was a fast same and an interesting one. The wind wa3 attain against the batting and it blew even more strongly than on Monday.

This Rave the outfielders plenty to do and allowed them to tret under balls that otherwise would have been safe for several bases. The pitching was good. too. on both eides. The Orioles made most of their hits on Sechrist.

who. though he pitched well, eeemed demoralized by several errors made behind him. In three inninars the Orioles pot a start on him through errors, and none of the eight runs made while be was pitching were earned under the new rules. Newton pitched the first five Innings for the visitors, and showed himself a young man of great talent in the pitching business. The Oriole sluggers could do nothing with him, only three bits being made while he officiated.

Horton made debut at Union Park yesterday, pitching the first five Innings for the champions. His work was admirable In every way. He bad speed and excellent control, and only one hit was made on him. The last four inninars "Stub' Brown pitched. As Is well known.

Brown is a Baltimore boy who pitched a few games for the champions in 1395. and has ever since been on Manager Hanlon's reserve llst.havlnsr been lent to Eastern League teams in 85 and 98. It was his first game this season, and he did remarkably welU He Is an able twlrler. big and 6trong and a left-hander. He is b.

Bldes a bard hitter. If be had bad a little better control of bis fast bell yesterday, it is doubtful if a single bit would have been made oa him. As it was, there were but three. Baltimore began scoring in the flr3t In-rlne-. McGraw got a base on balls and Keeler singled.

They played the double Bteal and on Xte's wild throw both scored. The Baltlmores were retired in order thereafter until the fifth inning, which StenzM opened with a beautiful three-bagger. He stole home on Qulun's short fly to right field. Horton in the same inning struck out. but the ball passed Nie and Horton reached first In safety.

Another passed ball put him on second, and by good running he scored on McGraw's sinale. An error by Weddiga put Jennings on first base in me smcinnina. He stole second and scored on Kelley's einele. Keller reached second on Doyle's out and scored on Stenzel's hit. Brown, who, bv the way, hit safely every time he came to bat, singled in the seventh inning and was forced by McGraw.

who stole second and scored on Keeler's hit. Errors by Leahy and Weddige and hits by Stenzel. Qutnn and Brown netted four runs in the eighth inning. Shaffer's error, Jen-rings' steal and Doyle's single trave the Orioles their last run in the ninth inniug. A fumble by McGraw.

a passed ball and throw to second by Clarke, which nobody caught, and Gilroy's triple gave the visitors their first run in the seventh inning. Shaffer's single. Doyle's muff and Leahy's single gave them their last in the eighth. Keitz had a finger 6plit and received a gash on bis chiu from a hot grounder, which bounded badly, from Weihl's bat in the fourth inning, but he made the play and put out his man. He expects to be playing again within a week.

took his place. One of the prettiest fielding plays of the game was a one-handed eaten of a hot liner by McGraw. Keeler and made pretty catches. Steuzel did most of the heavy batting and did some pretty base-running. Today the Orioles play the Syracuse team of the Eastern Leaarue.

RILEY GRANNAN RESTORED. Appeals Court Says His Exclusion from the Race Tracks Is Utterly Void. New York. April 13. The appellate division of tbe Supreme Court banded down a decision In Brooklyn today, reversing the decision of the lower courts in refusing to continue a temporary injunction obtained by Charles R.

Grannan, or "Riley" Grannan, as he Is known on every race course in the country, against the Westchester Racing Association. Justice Hatch writes the opinion for the court, and says in substance: "All the race tracks in this country recognize tho rules of the Mew YorK Jockey Club. Grannan bred horses and raced them on the turf; therefore It was necessary that he snould have freejaccesa to the racecourses. On September 28, Fred Taral, a jockey, received a present from Grannan for riding well in a rare upon tbe result ot which Grannan won much money. Under tbe rules of theJocney Club Graauan was ruled oil the turf for making the present.

On October 17, 189a, Graunan demanded adminsiou to tbe WestcneHer racecourse and it waa refused. Then he secured a temporary injunction restraining tbe club from interfering with bis tree access totue grounds. A motion to continue the injunction was denied. "Wuen business is not one of right, but Is permitted by the State as a privilege or franchise, the property in such business Is affected by a public Interest. The transactions of the Westchester race course fall under this rule.

The rule ot the Jockey Club under which Crannan waj excluded is headed 'Jockeys betting. 'and it provides when they may bet on the race, there is a governing body, acting under a statute which torpid belting, making a rule regulating a practice which laws say Is a felony. "The rule under which Granuan wa excluded Is without force aud utterly void, its effect is to regulate an oflense against the law. This is a case where equity will intervene, and the order is reversed and the Injunction continued." THE RUNNING TURF. Montgomery Park.

H. O'Donovan. Canton Company's Assessments Chase IIuildiiifT Association Protest Against a Saloon at Tow son A Railroad Sued for Damages Transfers of Beal Estate Items In Brief. Charles Poehlmann, aged seventeen years, of Catonsville, who Is in the employ of Mr. John Heidelback, who keeps a grocery store at that place, had an experience with a runaway team yesterday in which he displayed very clever horsemanship and unusual coolness.

A fine trotting horse attached to a buggy, belonging to Mr. Kichard Cromwell, and driven by Mr. Cromwell's coachman, Charles Gross, colored, ran away. Gross had left the horse at the corner of Bloomsbury and Frederick avenues while he went into a store. The animal became frightened and dashed down Frederick avenue.

Poehlmann was delivering orders and was riding a horse belonging to Mr. Heidelback when he saw the runaway approaching him. He had upon his arm a large basket full of groceries. Clutching the basket with one hand, he put speed to his horse and was soon at the side of the runaway. Then the race began.

Poehlmann rode at breakneck speed side by side with the frightened animal for about a quarter of a mile down Frederick avenue, watching his chance to seize the bridle of the runaway, and still holding the heavy basket In one hand. When near the country place of Mr. N. W. James, Poehlmann saw his chance and, leaning over his horse's neck, caught the bridle of the runaway animal and clung to it.

Within a hundred yards he had stopped the horse. A pair Cf young colts hitched to a Dayton wagon, owned and driven by Mr. Frank W'ilson, of Catonsville, ran away yesterday on Frederick avenue, in front of Loudon Park, demolishing the wagon. Mr. Wilson, together with George W.

White, was in the wagon and stopped to water the colts. They removed the bridle from one of them and it at once broke away and started toward Baltimore. The wagon was smashed against a pole and the colts continued with the pole and the front wheels of the wagon. Nobody was hurt. Alleged Tire-Bug on Trial.

Trial was begun yesterday In the County Court at Towson of the case of State vs. James B. Hutchins, of Towson, charged with setting fire to an outbuilding near a dwelling house owned by his wife, Mrs. Bertha Hutchins. The house is on the Dulany's Valley turnpike, near the York turnpike.

The first witness examined was William Phlpps, captain of the fire engine, who testified that Aqulla Bosley gave the alarm of fire. He went to the place, extinguished the fire with his hands and found that the roof of the building was saturated with coal oil and that there was a bag saturated with oil lying on the roof. There were also some matches which had been Ignited. John Bums, whose premises adjoin those of Hutchins, testified that he had been Informed by his son Frank that the latter had seen Hutchins pour coal oil into a can and throw the oil on the roof of the shed, and that he feared there would be a fire. Mr.

Burns proposed that he and his son should watch to see what happened. While young Burns went to the house to get a lantern his father was called to his workshop to answer a business call, and before many minute3 the roof was on fire. At half-past 2 the jury was directed to go to the place where the fire had occurred to view the location of the various points referred to In the testimony. Besult of a Bide After Hounds. Justice A.

Armenia, CAPT. JAMES F. TAYLOR DEAD. He Wan a Pioneer in Early Steamboat Travel on the Chesapeake Bay. Capt.

James Frlsbee Taylot, who was well known by local steamboat men, died yesterday morning at the home of his son, Mr. James E. Taylor, 1413 West Lombard street. His complaint was acute Indigestion, of which he had a severe attack Monday night. Yesterday morning he arose early and went downtown to transact some business.

He returned soon afterward and, going to bed, died before 8 o'clock. Born In Kent county in June, 1820, Captain Taylor was apprenticed when quite young to Mr. James Urle, owner of large cotton, grist and 6aw mills In Kent county, and which became favorably known for the fine kerseys manufactured there. After working for Mr. Urie for some years, Captain Taylor became the proprietor of the mills, whieh he conducted successfully for a number of years.

Some years later he removed to Ches-tertown and started a packet line between that city and Baltimore, the vessels owned by him making weekly trips. Famous among the vessels of that time was the old General Washington, a sloop, owned by Captain Taylor, and for many years operated on the packet line. It had thirty-two sleeping compartments, which was considered remarkable at that time. Another vessel, which was put on the line after the General Washington waa taken off, was the Jenny Lind. The old General Washington was afterward rebuilt and changed Into a schooner.

On her first trip, while carrying a cargo of 2,800 bushels of new wheat, she was blown ashore off the mouth of the Chester river. The cargo was almost ruined and caused financial disaster to its owner. In 1SG5. Captain Taylor became interested in the steamboat business. Purchasing a steamer, he put her on tbo line between Chestertown and Baltimore.

Afterward with a number of ocher business men he bought the Hugh Jenkins, a largo vessel belonging to the old Maryland Steamboat Company. Her name was then changed to the Kent Island. As the result of the wreck of the Caroline Virginia in 187(5, during a thunderstorm on the Chesapeake bay, Captain Taylor failed in business. Since that time he had not engaged in any regular business, and for the past twelve years had made his home with his sou. Surviving him a widow, who was MUs Elizabeth Hurlock Webb, of the well-known Eastern Shore family of that name; two sons and two daughters.

Capt. William J. Taylor, of the steamer Emma Ford, and Mr. James E. Taylor, freight agent of the Chester River Steamboat Company, are his sons.

The daughters are Mrs. Louis Lamborn and Mrs. Wm. S. Aldrldge.

TRIED TO KILL THE CAPTAIN. Assault Cpon James II Thompson, of the Schooner Brennan, by William Ashley, a Sailor. Mr. Charles H. White, 2110 Allceanna street, yesterday received a letter from his brother-in-law, Capt.

James H. Thompson, of the schooner Joseph T. Brennan, giving details of an attempt made April 8 to murder the captain on board his vessel while she was passing down the Rappahannock river from Ur-bana, Va. Captain Thompson wrote that he went to Urbana from Norfolk to get a cargo of corn. Early on the morning of April 8 the schooner sailed away from Urbana, proceeding down the river.

It was shortly after Captain Thompson had gotten his vessel under way that the attempt to kill him was made. The story is told in the letter to Mr. White as follows: "I had in the crew one man beside myself. His name was William Ashley and I had shipped him in Norfolk before going to Urbana. As we were sailing down the river after leaving Urbana, Ashley crept up behind me while I was standing at the wheel and shot at me twice with a 38-caliber revolver.

The bullets struck me in the back of the neck and then glanced off. I turned around to face my assailant, when he struck me over the head with the pistol and cut my head badly. "Though I did not fall, I thought that I saw death staring me in the face and I determined to make a fight for my life. The man continued to strike at me with the pistol. The first article of defense which my eyes lighted upon was a broom.

I picked it up and struck at Ashley. Then I got hold of a stool, with which I managed to stop his onslaught. I overpowered him and took the pistol fron him. Then I fired two shots at him, both balls taking effect in his head. He fell on the deck and I thought that he was dead.

I then put back to Urbana and landed the man In the care of a physician, who said the next day that he would recover." Captain Thompson stated In his letter that he thought that Ashley's motive was robbery. He thinks that the man had an idea that Captain Thompson had a large amount of money on board. The revolver which he had belonged to the captain and was stored away In the cabin of the boat. Captain Thompson lives at Blake's Post-office, 31atthews county, and Is well known about the water front of Baltimore. Ashley Is twenty-one years old, and when he shipped on the Brennan he signed articles as being from North Carolina.

LETTER CARRIER AND A DOG. The Animal Was Kicked, the Carrier Was Assaulted and Samuel Con- nolly Was Arrested. Samuel Connolly, 15 West Winder street, was before Commissioner Rogers yesterday because of a little dog which does not belong to him. He was charged with assaulting August J. Krausse, a letter-carrier, while in the discharge of his duties.

"On the morning of April 5," Krausse testified, "while I was on Winder street, near Hanover, I kicked a little dog which ran toward me and attempted to jump at me. Connolly ran out of a house and wanted to know whose dog I had kicked. He wanted to fight me, but did not touch me. I swore out a warrant for him for letting the dog run at large, but the case was dismissed, as the dog was not his. Then I swore out the warrant for assault." In answer to a question by the Commissioner, Krausse said that the dog had 'run away yelping when kicked.

Charles Philip Myers, 8 West Clement street, testified that Connolly wanted to fight the letter-carrier. The only witness for Connolly was Mrs. Annie M. Dorsey, with whom he boards. She testified that the dog of which the letter-carrier had been afraid was only a puppy.

The animal, she said, was kicked in the side, knocked over and ran away yelping. The Commissioner dismissed the case, saying: "It was a legal assault, but the circumstances are to be considered. Krausse wanted to keep his uniform decent and drove his foot at the dog. Connolly dared him to do It again. Some of the toughest fights I had when I was a youngster occurred when some fellow hit my dog.

I haven't goteu over the feeling yet, and I don't know what I would do if any one should hit my dog now. If you take the responsibility of hitting or kicking a man's dog yon take the responsibility of exciting a great deal of anger," The Commissioner concluded by telling Connolly that If the letter-carrier had Interfered with dog, he should have complained to the proper authorities.

Everything -was In readiness at an early hour yesterday at the grounds of the Baltimore Shooting Association for the interstate tournamtt which Is to begin there this morning. Many of the out-of-town shooters arrived yesterday and expressed themselves well pleased with the arrangements. Two sets of target traps will be used the regular traps of the association and a magazine trap placed south of the old ones.

"While the visitors were familiar with the magazine, the local shooters were not, but in the practice they soon comprehended Its curves. The magazine is in a pit. The man operating it sits on a bicycle seat and pedals away as If riding. By an electric device the trap-puller, seated behind the shooters' score, can spring the targets as rapidly as he desires, and by fast pedalling ten targets can be simultaneously sent Into the air. All shooting from It is, of course, from a known trap, but the angles at which the targets are to take flight are unknown.

The targets are propelled from a rapidly revolving arm, and their flight velocity is about the same as when thrown from an ordinary spring trap. It is claimed that fewer targets are broken by the magazine than by the spring trap. South of the magazine are the live-bird traps, which are to be used Friday and Saturday. These were also tried yesterday, and worked satisfactorily. The Baltimore Shooting Association grounds have a sky background, and there is nothing to mar the vision of the marksman.

Today's programme will include five events at fifteen targets and five at twenty targets, the association adding $12 50 to each fifteen-bird and 17 50 to each twenty-bird event. Visitors who tried the shooting yesterday were A. W. Durbray, of Dayton, J. S.

II. U. LACROSSE TEAM. Practice Suspended, for the Easter Holidays to Be Resumed. Later Well-Trained Players.

The candidates for the Johns Honking lacrosse team, who have been faithfully training for over a month, will stop play until April 22, the close of the Easter recess. Many of the out-of-town members of the team will leave for their homes tonight: a number of playerij will go off with the banjo club on its annual spring trip, and several or the players expect to spend the holidays out of town. All of the lacrosse men are, however, on the training pledge. Upon their return to the university bard practice will be renewed and a regular training table will be established, with a fixed diet. No game requires more careful training than lacrosse, as constant running and continued motion is necessary.

The championship games are scheduled May 8 with Stevens in Baltimore and May 15 with Lehigh at South Bethlehem. Hopkin3 has secured the Maryland Athletic Club's oval for the Stevens game, and it ia expected to be a great athletic event. The students are backing the team to a man on account of the faithful and steady work that has been carried on under Captain Maddren's leadership. In the recent game with Swartbmore. on account of bad weather, the management lost money, but subscriptions were promptly made and a sum sufficient to bring the College of the City of New York to Baltimore for a trame on April 28 was raised.

The men are playing a team game exclusively, and If they do not bring the inter-colieglata pennant to Baltimore they will have the satisfaction of knowinir that they have made the effurt of any university team In that line. The banjo, mandolin and glee clubs, upon their return from the spring trip, will give a concert in McCoy Hail for the benefit of the lacrosse team. Dispute In a Contest.

Arrest of Two Men "Wlio Entered Houses to Steal by Saying They Were Sanitary Inspectors. Patrolman Mason, of the southwestern district, and Sergeant Kyan, of the western district, yesterday captured two men who have been visiting dwelling houses and, by representing themselves to be sanitary inspectors, have succeeded in committing a number of robberies. They gave their names as Martin Reynolds and Charles Mitchell. Reynolds said that his home Is In New York, while Mitchell claimed to have come from Chicago. When searched at the southwestern station, where they were taken, Jewelry amounting to about $300 was found In their possession.

It was their attempt to enter the house of William B. Wilson, 1608 West Saratoga street, which resulted in their arrest. He thought that they were imposters, and went after Fatrolman Mason. The men were then walking north on Gilmor street at a lively gait, and to get ahead of them, the officer boarded a car. On the car he found Sergeant Ryan, of the western district, and told him of his mission.

They left the car and started after the men, whom they captured at the corner of Edmondson avenue and Mount street. Ry representing themselves to be Inspectors sent out by the health department, the men, It Is stated, found little difficulty In obtaining access to any house. Wherever they found the front door unlocked they walked In without ringing or knocking, and as soon as their presence was discovered announced that they came from the health board, which In most Instances gave them freedom to pursue their supposed examination of the premises. In one Instance they separated, and, while one engaged the occupant in conversation the other was upstairs ransacking drawers and other places. Frequently he would knock on the wall so as to carry on the deception and lead the person being robbed to believe he was examining the walls.

Upon coming downstairs be stated that everything was In good condition, and asked the lady if the child who was in the room had been vaccinated, at the same time offering to perform tbe operation. The police began a search for owners of the property they found on the men, and a large pnrt of It was soon Identified. The men were then arraigned before Justice Roberts, who committed them for court on four charges. A number of their victims, all of whom fully Identified them, told the magistrate of their methods. The charges on which they were committed were the larceny of a silver watch and a gold chain, valued at $18, from Geo.

Itoney, 521 North High street; the larceny of hIx gold rings, one gold monogram, one child's bracelet, the total value of which was $20, from Hnvah Engelmon, 111) North Exeter street; and entering the houses of J. It. Ttowen and William It. Wilson, 1004 and H108 West Saratoga street, with Intent to utenl. Mr.

Honey's valuables wern recovered from the pawnbroklni shop of Charles II. Weaver, 42'2 East Fayette Mret, by Detective I'ontler. Mrs. Engel-tnon Identified the goods belonging to her. Clara A.
