WAGNER'S OFFER FOR RUSIE. He Proposed to Give $12,500 for the Big Piteber. The biggest sensation In base ball circles since the purchase of Kelly and Clarkson by the Boston club has been caused by the arnouncement that J. Earl Wagner of the Washington Base Ball Club had offered President Freedman of the New York Base Ball Club $12,500 for the release of Pitcher Amos Rusle, the highest offer ever made for a ball player. It is sald that cor- respondence looking toward the reléase of Rusie has been in progress for several weeks between Messrs. Wagner and Freed- man. Freedman, it seems, was willing to con- sider an offer from the Washington mag- nates If several of the Washington players were included in the deal. This proposition Mr. Wagner would not consider even for a moment, but Wednesday he dispatched Mr. hmelz to New York, with Instructions to bid as high as $10,000 for big Amos. As darkness approached Mr. Schmeiz wired that Freedman refused point blank an offer of $10,000, and thereupon authority to go as high as $12.50) was telegraphed. In reply to this Mr. Fresdman announced that he would not accept $50,000 in cash for Rusie. Thus the proposed deal ended. Base Ball Notes. Rain yesterday prevented all the games scheduled except those in Philadelphia and Boston. “Game called on account of darkness,” shouted Umpire Lynch yesterday after- noon before the first inning had been con- cluded in the scheduled game at Union Park between the Baltimore and St. Louis clubs. it waz then only a few minutes after 4 o'clock, but the black clouds overhead plunged the grounds into semli-darkness and the ball, after it became muddy, was bard to see. Collins has reported in Boston. First Baseman Carey of Syracuse accept- ed tweuty-one chances in a recent game. Burkett, the champion batter of 1805, is lost when he goes up against “Dad” Clarke. Truby is not with Chicago on this trip. He was badly spiked by Van Haltren at Chicago. Pitcher Flynn has been reinstated by the New York club. Stein, who has been at Mt. Clemens to round up in shape, joined the Brooklyn players Tuesday. There may be some changes in the Phil- adelphia pitching department within the next ten days. McCormick, the new second baseman of the Colts, is said to be a splendid fielder, but a very weak hitter. Catcher Zimmer had to retire in the fourth inning of the New York-Cleveland game Wednesday on account of a lame leg. He will be missed by the Spiders. McGunnigie says he will beat Cincin- nati out in the series or else pass through the rest of his natural existence under the rame of Mud, or Dennis, if you choose. Manager Foutz denies that there is any clash in the Brooklyn club, According te Foutz, there is more harmony among the Brooklyn players than. in any other Naticnal League club. Trey call Fim the unspeakable Tom Me- Carthy this season. Tom seems to have lost his ginger since he shifted from Bos- ton to Brooklyn, and 1s conspicuously ab- sent from the coach line. President Robison is quoted as saying that he is afraid the Clevelands will be errested for vagrants, for as one looke cver the crowds attending the ball gam in that city, it shows that they have no visible means of support. Yet Robison 1s rated as a millionaire. Manager Irwin feels confident that the New York club will finish well up in the race. He is ‘handling the team with clever judgment, and’ deserves credit for plug- xing away without the service of Rusle. Amos, by the way, is being slowly and surely forgotten. Ttase ball, stars come and go. Ruste 1s no exception.—New York un, President Freedman of the New York club, notified Fred Pfeffer of als uncondi- ticnal release Wedresday. When Pfeffer Was informed that his services were no longer needed by the New York club, he +sked for a_ten-days’ notice, which was refused. Pfeffer then declared that he would not accept his release, but would appeal to the courts. EASTERNS A A Game Between District League Clubs Tomorrow. The Eastern A.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 29.—By consist- ent, hard fighting, forcing the issue throughout, Owen Ziegler of Philadelphia bested Dan Hawkins in the eight-round contest last night, and got the decision of the referee and the purse. After the de- cision Spider Kelly, one of Hawkins’ sec- nds, applied an epithet to the refere which was promptly responded to with a blow. Speedy interference prevented an- other fight. Cc. A. C.

THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICTS = Special Dispatch to The Evening Stai LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 20.—This week marks the end of the fight that has been made by the gold and silver men for ‘the control of the state convention which will be held at Lexington June 8. Tomorrow at 2 p.m., in pursuance of the call issued by the state central committee, mass con- ventions will be held in all the legislative districts for the purpose of selecting dele- gates, The most exciting times ever known in Kentucky politics are expected at Lex- ington, The state has occupied an unusually prominent place in politics this year. It is looked upon as one that will help decide the money question for the democratic party. Then it presents in a way a map of the situation all over the country. No man can say how it will be at Lex- ington—the fight is even. The hard work of the free silver men surprised the ad- herents of the gold standard, and while the latter had a great advantage early In the year, they allowed it to slip away from them, Work of the Silver Men. When the Kentucky legislature adjourned Blackburn, smarting under his failure to be re-elected United States Senator, vowed that he wotfld carry Kentucky for free silver. He went to work at once with his forces to organize the state and push the fight. Money in abundance was sent in from outside; Stone and Tillman were brought in to speak, and silver literature was ttered broad it. Blackburn's fol- lowing is devoted to him, with a zeal that is almost fanatical, and ‘they left nothing undone that could insure his success. Most striking in contrast- was the apathy of the sound money men. They did prac- tically nothing. Carlisle, Lindsay and Me- have failed to lend any help. The organization has been Imperfect, and none Dut lecal speakers have advanced the cause. Congressional Districts, Today there are four districts for silver, four are set down for sound money and three are doubtful. It may be that the seven will declare for the single gold stand ard, and it may be that but two or three will do so. The silver men will carry the it dis- trict; Paducah and one or two counties only will go for sound money The econd district will go the same way. the silver leader, will carry the The fourth district is also in that column. The fifth district, which is composed of le, Jefferson county, including Louis the stronghold of souid money wo solidity. In the fifty-tirat legislative dis- composed of the eleventh and twelfth of the city, the silver men are mak- a tight, and claim. its twenty. The sixth district is Carlisle’ It is said to be for scund money; but on account of two rival committees contending for recognition cannot be placed positively The seventh district is the most uncer- tain. The fight wiil, bring out W. C. P. Breckinridge as a candidate for Congress and 4 renewal of the did fight made en him on account of the Pollard case may be ex- pected. = The eighth district: #: also a fighting ground. It is most doubtful and either side may yet gain St. The ninth district will probably be found in the sound money column, though noth- ing but persistent effort will place it there. The tenth and eleventh districts are rea- sonably sure to go for sound mone: Even if the sound money men carry the state by districts the silver men may con- trol the convention, as the districts which are for silver are solid. he Central Committee, There fs another fight being waged in addition to that for silver. The Blackburn men mean to reorganize and control the central committee. In the districts that ure for sound money, sound money men, who are, nevertheless, for Blackburn, will be placed on the committee. In all other dis- tricts Glackburn men will be named, 80 that however the convention goes, Black- burn will control the committee. If Blackburn’s men control the conven- tion, ckburn will be formally nominated for United States Senator. If he does not, he will go to work to make the legislature of 1897 a Blackburn legislature, and only Blackburn men will be recognized by the party machinery. They look still further ahead. A Black- burn man will be nominated for governor in 180, and a Blackburn man will contest the election of Senator Lindsay in 1900, > A Suggestion for the Police. To the Editor of The Evening Star: We read about the arrest and incarcera- tion of American citizens in foreign pris- ons with feelings of the greatest sympathy, and we endeavor to ameliorate their suffer- irgs. But right in our own city we have cutrages, legal, of course. Where is the Humane Society? Read the account in a morning paper of the arrest and imprison- ment in a common criminal cell of a child, who was kept there all night in mortal dread, and for no other offense than riding a bicycle without a lamp. Visit the sta- tion house; then ask yourselves if any cruelty was inflicted. Anti-Division Asso- ciation, is it best to redeem those that have already fallen, or support from tumbling those who have not? Visit the station house and see the cells that youths are confined in for trifling violations of police regulations, and where they are sometimes kept over night, generally without food, and maybe then driven in a wagon with hardened criminals to the Police Court, where the case is heard and dismissed be- cause no law was violated. Should the vic- tim have no redress? Should he not have substantial satisfaction? Are riders of bicycles required to ring the bells at any time? If not, what is the use of requiring them to have a bell? I believe in law, and am ready at any time to uphold it, but I am no less a believer in mercy and kind- ness. There should be at évery station house a room of detention, neatly fitted up, where all simple offenders of the law may be held until the trial Jude hears the case. There ts no good to belde#ived from humil- jating the young and robbing people of self- respect, ot ae LA Bo a eg utg ig Prof. Caruana’s May Ball. The annual May ball of Prof. E. Morti- mer Caruana’s class of fancy dancers was given last evening dt’ the Academy of Music. The group dances were given in a way which showed the result of excellent training, and all of the solo dances were rendered with skill ang careful attention to details, while the stage-effects, superintend- ed by Professor Caruana, added much to the general taking quality of the different features. Among the best might be men- tioned the original gaiety. girls, a. chameleon dance, with splendid light effects; a toe ballet by six dancers, midair dancing, the flying bat dance, a double fancy quartet char- acter dance, tha French quadriile dancers and the two coronation scenes, where the queens of May and fairies were crowned with appropriate ceremonies. A ‘‘Trilby” act, with a little dancer, and Mr. Aaron Stern as Svengali, was also a feature, the little one dancing in bare feet. The ball was brought to an end with a sailors’ bal- let, in which all the class appeared, with Prof. Caruana himself as the soloist, in a sailors’ hornpipe. No encores were allow- ed, but, as it was, the program lasted until nearly 12 o'clock. The theater was crowd- ed by the friends and parents of the little ones, and generous applause was given all of the performers. Pieasing interpolations were given by the Madrids, consisting of Messrs. Yundt, Gallaher and Holmes, in selections, and Mr. Aaron Stern, in im- personations of well-known actors, the latter being recalled several times. Miss Isabel Shelton gave two character songs that were highly appreciated. BOOt8 icine so.<js aioe ne 1530) Oxfords). cs7cs4s.2 eu S250 Our best shopping time is between 8 and © am.
