By the 30th Inst, if not sooner, it will be seen who Is nearest the mark.

Aside from the championship, there are sev- eral matters now talked of In the League In a very lively way, prominent among which are the Jones case and the live-men rule. We give a state- ment of the Jones case In this department As regards tbe five-men rule, the most feasible way to bieak It np Is the formation of an Eastern Leagne, or the organization of all the Eastern cinb teams as National Association dubs, as for the playeis wanting to do anything in the matter, that is almost out of the question. They lack two essentials for such a course, viz., nnanlmlty of action and trust in each other. The first tempting offer wonld be likely to break np any players'or- ganization.

TIme,Zti. , ^ A PROPEBSIORAl. REVITAIi IN XEW TORK. For sevetal yesrs past New York baa been with- out a suitable representative team in the pro- fessional arena. The orlgiiul cause ol this was a lack of confidence In the integrity of tbe play of the old representative teams .of the metropolis, and Kew York patrons of the game backed ont trom giving the teams conntenance or support. This vras the fiist cause of the decline of professional play in the metropolis. The obstacle to any revival of the game here since then has been tha absence of any professional gronnd to play on—that is, one which was at command of any regular stock-company organization for an en- tire season. liecently this latter barrier has been removed, and now we are gratified in being able to slate that the metropolis can look forward to seeing as strong a representa- tive team in the local proIessionS field in issi aa money and good management can secnie. The opening to this coming revival of professional baaeball-play was made last week, when Manager Mntrle, under tbe an^lees of sneh wealthy gentle- men as Messrs. Belmont, LorlUard. Jerome, and others of the wen-known Westchester Poio cinb, obtained the use of the Inclosed polo grannds aa a basebaH field for the present FaU campaign, as well aa for the season oflSSl, '2 and '8.

Of the dozen gentlemen who were prominent In connection with the Boston toaraament of 1805 eight or nine no longer live. The last to go was Robert E. Wllmarth. wlto. besides being a com- petitor In that tonrney. arranged all tbe prelim- inaries of it The deceased was twra in Brooklyn N. Y., on Aug. 28.1837, and received a collegiate education, his parenta designing him for the min- istry; but on becoming of age he chose a mer- cantile life. He was a splendid nenman, his chi- rooraphy being as regular as steel-plate, and for a while he was bookkeeper for a Boston bllllard> table manufacturer. In ISS2. having meanwhile' become quite accomplished as an amateur player he embraced bllllartis as a profession. When we first liecame acqoalnted with him, Robert E. Wll- marth, then a dark-complexioned voung man of fine appearance, his eye bright, h& step elastic and his form straight as an arrow, was the proprietor of a bllllard-room on Province street Boston, which he disposed of about the clofe of 18A4,to open another In the same city. Hia first appearance as a public match-plaver was on Uay 13.1663. when, at Essex Hall, Boston, he enconn- tered Helvln Foster, who on that occasion made bis first appearance as a match-player. The game was the fall American, l.ooo fiolnts up. on a e.'ci: sLx-pocket table, for $230 a side; and Foster, with a mn of lOS and an averase of ia.34-n. won it bv 170, tbe loser's best run being es, and his average ia.2S-ei. Wllmartb's next pnUic contest w if> with Harry Eaton, lonnerly of Chelsea, Hasg,, bnt then Jost returned trom a protracied residence in San Francieco, where he was the rival of Jo- seph K. Little nnd of Daniel Lawrence Lvnch. who died In Japan. The match between' Wll- marth and Eaton wax for f soo a side, and con- slRtea of l.soo points, caroms, on a exU four-pocket table. Wllmaitb. wbo-e average for the pnrpoce of a record was 13,34-113 (by an error In marking, he had to score l.UOpoints) and wbose best ran was I40, won by about soo, Eaton hariog scored bnt 718. Tbe contest took place at Bnm- atead BalL Boston, on Sept 22.18(M. and It was Eaton's last public matcb. Wllmarth's next pub- lic appeaiance was as a participant In tbe original tournament for tbe chempionsblit of Kassacha- setu. held in Bumntead Hall, March 13 to 20.18«S. Having won the second prize hv defeating Uessrs. L. S. Brooks, E. Daniels, F. A. Harding. John Peck. Lee W. Languon and Frederick E. Smitb. on March 18 he challenged the winner of tbe cue, William A. Tobln. The same was played on June 21 follow- ing, and WUmarttt whose best ran was 110, and average 11.48-182 (four-pocket szl2 table), won by l,soo to 1,430. CyrlUe Dion, having on Jidy 18.1805. become tbe nominal champion of Canada, now challenged Wllmarth to a home-and- home matcb. The Bostoulan. being then In Mont- real In attendance on the tournament that made C. Dion champion, was backed by Michael Phelan, and tbe first game, each belnjr for t2£0 a sltle In Koid. was played at Mechanics' Hall, that city July 20. Dion won It by l,MO to 1,37$, his best ran being 118 aitatnst Wllmarth's «o. and hla average 118 (6x12 four-pocket table), as against 11.8S.II7 Before the time set for the retnm game, WUmnrth ceased to be champion of Hassacbnsetts. having been beaten on Oct is, 18«», by Edward Daniels on a score of 1,M0 to l,020, an average of s,ii«- IM to e.ea-lS4, and with so and ss as beet runs respectively of winner and loser. This defeat led to illness on the part of Wllmarth. and he had to lorKlt (nominally) in the match with Cyrille Dion, set down for the next mght Oct. 19. in the same hall—Bamstead, Boston. On con- dition tbat Edwards Daniels wonld play in the place of Wllmarth. the backer of the latter offered to pot up the balance of the money. si2S which, with the £125 forfelt/!d In case Daniels wonld not pla.v. made up tbe reqnired 82S0 In gold. The pro- position was acceptable to aU parties, and Dion won by a score of 1,530 to 728, hla best run belwr 157 and his average ia.28-02. In the succeeding year WUmarth chaUenged Daniels, and the latter at Bamstead Hall on Jnne 21, again deleated the'de- ceased.the winner'smajontybelngess,hlsaveraoe iLjW-lffl to 9.15-128, and^s 6eat ran 181 aa a^St 115. Wllmarth shortlyalterwatdsremovedMthis city, and filled varlonn positions connected with rooms. As snjierlntendent of the room imder Wsl- lack's Theatre, Thirteenth street and Broadway he played Richard Davis fortioos side, giving him ttie odds of 100 In 1,000 caroms, and winning by 302, his best run being 117 and his average 24.1S-41. This waa on May 4. 18S8, After a residence of nearly two years in the metropolis, he retnraed to Boston, wheie, engaatng in the tonmamenc of ll^y 10 to 18,1809, at Bnmstead HaU, he again ac- quued the cbampionstilp of Kaasachnsetts (now pUved for on a s>jxil four-pocket Ubie, Jawing and crotchlng prohibited), having deftated an of his opponents: A.
