The attendance at the game wa3 the
largest of the week, ana the ladies were out
in force. Tne game was weil played and
was full of brilliant features. There as
some quick work in the infield, aith:ugh
the Boston* did not, on the whole, field as
well as t„ey did the day before, and tbe.r
hairing was weak. Tee New Yorks hit
hard and effectively, r a oping out run*

The Bostcns went first to bat and Storey
was given : is base by Ew,ag. was advanced
two na-es by Neat’s base hit and run down
and scored on a ball from Brouthers’ bat.
■which was too hot for big Dave Richardson
to handle. The Giants m de no run, a.id
‘•Kid” Madden ran Gore down in an excit
ing chase, in which he was assisted by Swekl
and Wcitney.
In the second inning neither side scored,
although errors of tne Boston infield were
scary at one time.
Ic the third inning the Bostons were retired
without a score, and when Dave Richard
son went t :• tbe bat for New York he lapped
the tail for two bases. O'Rourke was hit
by the bail ar.d took first. Connor flied cut
in left field, ut Slattery went to the bat
and hit the firs: pitched ball for two bases
and brought two men in, but was fcirself
left rn second, as Hatfield and Whitney
couldn’t get the ball out of the diamond.
In the fourth inning the Bostons got two
rune and tied tbe score, taking kindly to
Doyle’s delivery. Qurnn took first on four
balls, and was advanced by Irwin’s hit to
aococi, and by Brown’s hit to third and
home. Irwin stole second and got to third
on Brown’s hit and home on a passed bail
A SCORE OR A WILD PITCH.
The Now Yo: ks got one run in this inning.
Eing got first on Irwin’s fumble and com
pieted tr.e circuit on a wild pitch tnat went
through the carriage* behind the back stop.
The fifth inning was quickly played, onlv
three men on a side coming to bat. S:ovey
was struck cut by Doyle, Nash’s long fly to
oenter was captured by Slattery and
Brout hers popped a little fly to C onnor.
Too New Yorks went out in one, two. three
order. “Hi" Richardson caught O’Rourke
and Slattery's long raps to left, O’Rourko’s
being a long liner handsomely taken by
Richardson, Connor being the second man
out, hitting to Irwin.
In the sixth inuing Quinn and Irwin were
retired by quick infielding, and Brown’s fly
was taken by Connor. Ouiy four men went
to the bat for New York, and the only mau
that got to tho first base was Whitney, who
was struck by the ball He got second on a
wild throw by Murphy and died there.
g’day in the box.
O’Day went in to pitch for New York in
the seventh inning. He gave Richardson a
base on balls. Richardson stole second,
where Stovey left him by a pop fly to
Brouthers, Murphy aud Daly having been
thrown out at first. Gore, for the New
Yorkers, mado a base bit, but Richardson’s
l it to second caught him between bases, and
a pretty double play by Quinn, Irwiu and
Brouthers put both of the ruuners out.
O’Rourke made a clean base hit, got second
and third on a wild throw by Murphy, and
it looked as if he would score, as Nash
fumbled i 'onuor’s hot grounder, but quickly
recovering the ball sent it like an electric
shock to first in time to retire the side.
The Bostons made their fourth nod last
ruu of the game in the eighth inning, Nash
hitting hard to right, and coming home on
a passed ball, which stampeded the crowd
near the back stop. THb N'>w Yorks got
their winning runs in this inning, as has
been shown above.
The Boston’s half of the ninth inning was
short. Brown struck out, Murphy was
thrown out at first, ami Vaughn picked off
a hot l’otd from Daly’s bat and ended the
game. The score is appended;

THE JOCKEY CLUB ORGANIZED.
' It Start* Off Under the Most Favorable
Circumstances.
The Savannah Jockey Club met yester
; day at Ibe Pulaski bouse, and thirteen new
cam<n were added to u membership. Tn_*
annual dues were fixed at $25 instead of sls,
and the club starts out under the fairest
| auspices.
The u.ec-tirg was called for the purpose of
; finding out whether the old club was strii in
I existe: ce. and, if not, arrangements would
be is..? whereby a reorg.in.ration might
be perfected It was found, however, t. at
a qu.rutn of mt uikrs were present, and
they look a lively l. rest in its affairs.
Tee following gemiemm were present: Cob
Geo. S. Owens, Cot J. IL Estril, M. A.
Cohen. J. R. Young, U, H. Dorset:. James
Had, E. A. Weil, J. J. Wilder, J. N. John
s. n, R. W. Powers, J. H. Fur ter, J.
Lippman, B. B. Minor, W. H. Daniels, and
Cent U . it Hone.
Cot Geo. 8. Owens, president. took the
chair and it A. Cohen, secretary and
treasurer, acted as secretary. J. EL Young
stytod the objects of the meet! g, aad sn:d
three interested in horse racing ha 1 m a
* t uiet way talked of either reorgauizuig the
oid club or organizing anew one. If the
old club was dead he advocated tbe organiz
ing of anew dub upon the same plan and
with toe same regulations.
Col. Estiil asked how many of the old
club were present, and several replied that
they were members of the club. It ap
peared that ten members were present.
He then moved that the old club come to
order, as it was not extinct. It had not lost
its charter rights. He thought that this
was the easiest way to organize. He moved
that tne rules be suspended, after the club
nad come to order, for the purpose of re
ceiving new members; and, further, that
all who were present and who were not
members of the club partidpate in the
meeting.
CoL Estili’s motion was seconded by Mr.
J. X. Johnson, and was earned. Secretary
Cohen was then requested to read the min
utes of the last meeting. Uader tbe suspea
sion of tbe rules the following gent.emen
were nominated and elected members:
Capt. John L. Hammond, John R. Young,
C. H. Dorsett. J. 11. Furber, Joseph Hull,
J. K. Garnett, R. NY. Powers, F. S.
Lathrop, J. B. Withers. M. Y. Mclntyre,
and Hou. Johnson Haygood, CoL Mike
Brown, and Hon. Alfred Aldrich.
Mr. Lippman moved to make the annual
dues SBS instead of sls.
CoL Estiil thought that SSO was reason
able. He wanted to see the club on a good
footing. It should compare favorably with
any iu this part of the country. Putting
the rate up might possibly keep out some,
but the membership even at that rate would
be as large as it was needful.
Mr. NVeil thougnt that the rates raised to
$25 were reasonable, and more would join
at tnat rate, consequently more people
would become interested and afford stronger
support for the club. The $25 rate was
adopted.
Mr. NVildar then moved that a committee
be appointed to solicit membership, aud
the president appointed the following gen
tleman: John R. Young, J. Lippman, J.
X. Johnson, C. H. Dorsett, and Joseph
Hull as a committee to iuvite gentlemen to
become members and report to the presi
dent the result of their work, and a meeting
will be called to receive the report.
Mr. Yonug read a letter received by him
self from J. IL Madden of Charleston,
stating that be was interested iu the move
ment of reviving the jockey club in Savan
nah, nml that he had several horses that he
wisned to train. Usually he goes east to
do this, but he preferred to c me here if the
club organized. He preferred to come here
for several reasons, tbe chief being the
climate. The expenses here will be less than
in tbe east also. He said that Savannah
should, with the proper management,
inter a good many northern horses every
year. The facilities for bringing horses
here are unsurpassed. They can be trans
ported by steamer at nominal expense.
Col. Estiil thought that t.he Ten Broeck race
course could be bad fir the first two sea
sons free. He said that he had talked to
several of the stockholders and they were
disposed to aid the club in every possible
way. Iu reply to a question he said that
there Is no lease ou the track, only that
part of the property used for agricul
tural purposes is under ' lease.
It was the general opinion that
the club will be able to operate under more
favorable circumstances than ever before.
Two new roads will be built out from tbe
city, and will thus afford a better and more
pleasant meaus of getting out to the
grounds. The track is in fair condition,
and with little time and labor can be im
proved and made os fine as ever. The course
was regarded in former times the finest in
this pari of the country. Horses were here
from all parts of the country. It is the in
tention of the club to rnako it all that it
ever was, and more.
CAUGHT BY QUICKSAND.
Three Men Narrowly Escape Death in
the Habersham Street Sower.
Tte laying of the Habarsham street sewer
is proving rather a difiicfit work. Quick
sand was struck yesterday at a depth of
about tiirten feet, where the sewer crosses
Duffy street, aud Supt. Fitzgerald has
found it ne-essary to “street-pile” the ex
cavation before the sewer pipe can b.i laid.
Three men were caught in the sand yes
terday morning, and before they could ba
got out the banks caved in and buried them.
A large f wee of bands was in the excava
tion and the in n were got out before they
were entirely covered. The sand under
mined tha banks as fast as the earth c >utd
be throw n out, and it was with some ditfl
< ulty that they were re .cued. One of them
had to be carried to his home. The other
two were not seriously hurt.
The “street-piling” process,which consists
in driving planks through the sand along the
edges of the excavation to prevent the earth
from caving, mazes the work slow. The
quicksand exren isfr im Duffy street pretty
nearly to Henry street, which is as far
south as the excavation extends, and it may
reach further.
At a depth of twelve feet are springs of
water which fill up the ex ovation as fast
as it is dug out, which have to bo banked
up with clay and dirt so that the sewer
pipe ran bo put down. The sewer is a
twenty-four-inch inte ior, and requires a
wide aud deep excavation.
IS COUNCIL’S ACTION FINAL?
Judg-e Adams' Coming- Opinion Upon
Its Decisions Asa Court de Novo.
An interesting law point was referred to
ex-Judgo Adams, acting city attorney, at
the last meeting of council, which Mr.
Adams asked further time to consider.
Mr. Morrison, a raerehont, had his tax
return of stuck in trado raised by tlio as-ess
incut committee, and iu- appealed. The
council, sitting as a court tie novo, fixed toe
return at a higher ti-uro than that given by
Mr. Morrison, and ho sent in a petition to
council to reconsider its ucliou. Alder
muu Nichols moved to reconsider, when the
point was rais-'d by Alderman Carson,
chairman of tha osnossmotifc committee, and
other aldermen, that tie notion of tho coui t
de not’o is final, and that the council sitting
as a board of aldermen cannot undo what
it did as a judicial body.
Mr. Adams, wbou called upon for nn
opinion, said that lie was inclined to think
that the point was we 1 takou, but ho pre
ferred to have time to look w ro ciov.-ly

THE MORNING NEWS; SATURDAY, MARCH 22, 1890.
WAITED FOR HI3 CHANCE.
Tbe Story of Ex-Post master Sanders'
Escape flrom Marshal Haines.
United Stares Defuly Marshal Haines of
Sen Francisco, who lost his prisoner day
before yesterday, is still in the city using
every effort to capture him. He has offered
a reward of SIOO and has flooded the city
ard every town within a radius of o:.e
! ha: : ei miles of Sava:.uah with circulars
describing tbe prisoner, giving hi* name
and t-e cri ; e with which he is charged.
Th? fugitive's name is J. T. San lers. He
is the late pestmas'.er at l J .uuib Branch,
, Edgefield county. South Carolina. He
j robbed tee mam iu the p>istottire and stole
j several hundred dollars about throe months
agThe :n;/ee:ors got track of the rob
bery, and when Sanders found out that
they were trying to trap him he ran away.
Tne inspectors waited for him to write back
to Platan Branch, in the meantime, they
scat circulars to all the postoffices
in the country, acquainting them
of Sanders’ offense. After two months had
elapsed a letter came to Plumb Branch from
San Fr.,nct-co. It was in Sanders’ hand
writing, and the inspectors immediately
r .'.-g ized it. The letter was intercepted
and SjAuers’ whole scheme was discovered.
II? was in San Francisco. He tcid his
frie .and in Plumb Branch to address
his reply to a fictitious address at San
Francisco. The inspectors inciosed a piece
of writing paper in a lct>“r and addressed it
to the name given by toanders. The p st
raaster at Sun Francisco was acquainted of
the plan to trap Sanders, and a lookout was
kept for him. \Voen Sanders called the in
spector was there. He was given the decoy
letter, and when he was opening it tbe in
spector stepped before him aud asked him if
tnat was his name. He replied that it was.
“Is it your real name!” the inspector
asked.
“No,” replied Sandora,
“Isn’t it Sanders;”
“Yes,” he replied.
That was enough, and Sanders was lodged
in jail. A writ of removal was granted bv
the United S:ates district judge, and United
S at Deputy Marshal Haines was pla ed
in charge of Sanders to remove him to
South Carolina. The marshal left San
Fiancisco on the night of March 13, and
arriv- and on the night of the 20tb. At Tbomas
ville.the marshal sa.d last nigbt.an aged lady
and her invalid daughter from Xew York,
who have been south recuperating, got
aboard the train and occupied seats near
the marshal and his prisoner. Several times
during the trip from Thotmsville to Savan
nah the marshal waited on the ladies, and
when the train reached Savannah she was
unable to get her daughter out of the train
alone, and she asked the marshal to assist
her. He told Sanders to take so ne of toe
bundles aad he wouid help the lady out.
Sanders remained beside bi:n with the
bundles until he got out on the platform,
and he then fell in the rear. While the
marshal was waiting for a hack to be sum
moned Sanders sec tie packages down and
stepped back over the platform, putting the
train and a good deal of ground between
him and tbe marshal. When tbe marshal
found his prisoner was gone ho used ad
diligence to capture him, but his efforts
were fruitless. He reported the matter to
Chief Green, and tbe police were notified to
look out for the man, and Detective SI
Basch was sent out with the marshal to see
if the prisoner could be apprehended.
Marshal Haines said that Sanders has not
a cent. He describes him as tall and slim,
5 feet 10, dark brown hair, small light
brown mustache, prominent thin nose, gray
eyes, small, delicate hands, wrists colored
by rust from handcuffs, soft black hat,
black suit of clothes not much worn, with
satin stripes running diagonally down
pants and coat giving shiny appearance,
heavy gaiter shoes, overcoat reidisb brown,
age about 30.
Marsha! Haines said that Sanders acted
straightforward all the way down from the
wed. Ha had not attempted to conceal
anything. Ha told tha circumstances of
the robbing and everything connected with
it. The marshal said that nights ha hand
cuffed Sniders and chained him
to the iron part of the car
and the prisoner's wrists had become sore.
Coming up from Thomasville ha took the
cuffs off his hand, in order to let him res.,
and intended placing them on again before
leaving for Charleston. He feel-; confident
that Sandere will be captured. The rain in
the swamps will drive him to the roads,
and somebody is bouud to see him. The
officers all over this section of the state,
Florida and South Carolina have bsea in
structed to keep a lookout fo.r him. The
marshal will remain in Savannah several
day.-. If Sanders is not recaptured he will
go over to Charleston and thenca to San
Francisco.

THE TART CASE PERJURER3 TO BE
TRIED NEXT WEEK.
Th* Stories which Joe Daly and Lew la
Brown Swore to n Justice Russell's
Court They Admit to be False—Tart
Determined to Push the Prosecution
of His Persecutors.
An interesting case is to be tried in the
superior court one day r.ext sue*. Joe
Daly aud Lewis Brown were indicted by
the superior court grand jury NVedaesday
for perjury, in Justice Russell’s court in
the Tart arson casi.
T. 8. Tart had been arrested for setting
fire to his premises, th? prosecution was in
spired by Malpheus and Mann, lati partners
of Tart in the wood business, the office being
in the same building occupied by Tart.
The latter was discharged after au exami
nation, and soma weeks afterward it leaked
out that Brown and Illy were subpoenaed,
or claimed to have been subpoenaed
to swear falsely against Tart, but being un
paid, or paid only in part, they went to
Solicitor General Fraser to see what could
be done with Mann, who had made the
arrongeme .t with them.
BOTH SWORE FALSELY.
It appears from tha confessions obtained
by the solicitor general that Daly aad
I Brown did not see Tart on the night of the
tire, as they alleged in their testimony In
the justice’s court, their entire statement
being fictitious.
Daly swore that he had been out at
Southville the night of the fire, and, return
ing about midnight, saw Tart stooping
down in the backyard, and there was a big
light in Tart’s room; that Tart looked up
ard asked, “Whois there?” aud Daly said,
“It’s George,” and Tart replied, "George,
what business have you around here?” and
then the witness went on.
Louis Brown’s testimony was still more
corroborative of Tart's guilt, and was also
false in detail. Brown swore that he had
been serenading in Yamacraw on the night
of the fire, and passing the house about
I'3o o’clock in the mtruing saw a bright
light in Tart’s room, and looking in the
window saw a pile of wood on fire on the
outside of the fire-place, with some clothing
on the wood, ana Tart was standing up in
his underclothing looking down at the fire.
A TROtPED-UP STORY.
Brown said that Tart hallooed at him,
and 1 nswerod back “Its me, Lewis,” and
Tart .old him he had better move on. so he
left the house aud went to bed and never
heard the fire bells.
Tart is determined to prosecute to the end
all who had anything to do with humiliat
ing him by an arrest on the charge on so
grave a crime, which, in this state, is pun
ishable by death. Mani, who assaulted one
of Tart’s witnesses, and was indicted for
assault with intent to murder, has left tbe
city, and his whereabouts are unknown.
Malpheus gave bond and is still here, and
says be will stand trial.

GAMBLERS GETTING UNEASY.
The Courts Pushing Them Too Hard
for Their Comfort.
There is no little commotion in the gamb
ling fraternity, as the gamblers managed to
learu before being officially notified that
five of their number bad been indicted for
gambling by the grand jury. Three of the
unfortunates were hit heavily at a recent
term of tho court, being fined SSOO each.
The courts ail over the country are pushing
the card players to ti e wall. The members
of the sporting fraternity say that faro
and keno have been frozen out, oontz is
going and poker is getting snaky 0:1 its
legs. A Missouri judge the other day ruled
that progressive euchre for a prize, whether
for a pincushion or an umbrella, is a felony.
The gamblers are getting down-hearted,
and they say that it is getting so that a
little quiet game of chance can’t bo had
nowadays exceptmt a club house or a c lurch
fair, where one' can “blow in” all he wants
at stud poker in the one and the wheal of
fortune at the other.
CITY BREVITIES.
There will be a baptism by Rev. G. W.
Griffin, pastor of the First Bryan Baptist
church (colored), to-morrow at I'd o’clock
in the canal at the foot of Bryan street.
The stone curbing is being placed in posi
tion around Monterey square. The square
has beeu w idened on the eastern aad western
sides by encroaching on Bull street. Tnis
will save considerable expeuse when the
the street is asphalted. Replacing, the
wooden raiiings with curbing will greatly
improve tue little parks or squares which
have made the city so famous, and will be a
great saving in the future in the expense of
keeping them iu order.
The big pump was off at the water works
yesterday, and water consumers were not
I ng in finding it out, as tne little pump
could not force tho water much above first
floois. The annoyance was only for a few
hours, however, as the big pump needed
packing, and when this was done the little
pump was shut down. The pnenence of
river water in tho artesian Is causing some
uneasiness, and quite a number of con
sumers are filtering the water used for
drinking.
