Lixcorx, Neb,, May 5.—|Special Telegramn the B the home team meet an easy defeat to-day at the hands of the Omaha club. It was the opening game ot the league season in Lin- coln, and a shade of gloom overspread the grandstand at the i1l luck the home team met. The game was brilliant only in a few instances, and costly errors were the features on the part of the Lincoln club. Schneider played short for the Lincons, a position he neyer occupies, and his errors were many and at most times costly. Errors at second and third bases also occurred. Law- rence in the box played only fait y, but Do- land behind the bat was nearly faultless. On the part of the Omaha club the notable feature was the closeness with which they played together at every point. Healy pitched an excellent game up to the eighth Inning. when he lost his grip and allowed the Lincolns to score seven runs. Hurley umpired to the general satisfaction.

City oF MEXICO, May 5.—(Special Tele- gram to the Bek.|—Senor Vercero Armecto is the name of the Spanish minister who cuts such a prominent figure In the prospective duel. He has been minister to Mexico about one year. He escorted Miss Bazaine to a ball Saturday night ana feels that he must fight to protect her good name. Senor Norlega, the offender, has determined to lay the trouble before the Spanish government, and is'collecting material to take to Madrid with the view to have the minister recalled. The trouble at the ball is only one of a serles of grievances, Noriega’s friends claim. They cite particularly the minister’s course In introducing Bull Fighter Mazzan- tini into Mexican social circles and making of him a soclal lion as an imposition on Mex- ican hospitality. An attempt is being made to have the minister expelled from the club. In the meantime the Englishman, Barron, is impatiently awaiting for Norieza’s cl lenge, as he slapped the Spaniard in the ca- sino room when the latter accused him of undve liberties with Miss Bazaine. Noriega was on the reception committee, and his caution to Barron about his style of dancing 18 defended on the score of his official posi- tionr Agnnt deal of sympathy Is expressed for Miss Bazaine on account of the notoriety she recelved from the affair.

C., May 5—This morn- ing six negro boys aged thirteen to seven- teen yenrs, were at the wharf to get across Cape Fear river to shoot rice birds. One named Grant Best, had borrowed a double barrelled gun, which he says, had no caps and he did mot know it was loaded. When in the act of blowing out one of the tubes the hammer fell and one barrel was discharged killing ipstantly two of the boys, ‘Two others were also shot and died soon after, The remaining boy, named Geo, Best, was wounded in both arms, but itis likely he will recover, Grant it sur- rendered himself immediately after the shooting and claimed it was accidental, which is generally belioved, as the wounded boy Is his brother.

The pump ‘which is kept for emergencies 1s being used, but only one-eighth of the city water supply s available. All the elevators which were run by water or steam have been shut down. The Maine road edicials think they will be unable to start a train for St. John under two weeks. The washouts at Costigan, Kingman and Mattawa continue to grow. ‘The larger houses are starting from their foundations all along the river and thousands of dollars worth of household property have been washed away,causing much suffering of families along the banks. be weeks behind with their crops. All the trestlowork supporting the railway at Still- water has been torn away, and houses there have floated down the river. Businessis suspended on the Bangor & Kathadin Iron works road, where there are many washouts, The Piscatquis river rose twenty-five feet, making the highways impassable. The new woolen mill dam most of the great Campbell dam Sangerville have been washed away, suspending 700 op- erators for a long time. In this clty some of the houses are flooded and the families have been transferred in boats to a place of safety. ‘The teachers and pupils in some schools have had to go back and forth in boats. The woolen mills and other factories at Hartford are flooded,and five stores there were undermined and fell down from their foundations,causing A great loss. Boats were used to pass along the streets and hardly a building has escaped. At Linn the great woolen mill owner is the heaviest loser. His damawe will be over $150,000.

C111cAGo, May 3. —[Special Telezram to the Bee.|—News has just been recelved here of the flight from his home in St. Claire county of Josephus Compton, A member of the leg- islature. A couple of years ago he made his appearance in the little town of Eden, where he worked as a carpenter, claiming to hail from Kentucky, He led a model lifa, and after a year or so was olected town marshal. Last year, after a probationary course, he was duly licensed as a Methodist preacher and thereatter was noted throughout that section as a fervid exhorier. He joined the independent party the last state campaign and was nominated and elected to the legls- Iature. He took his seat last November and during the session attracted considerable no- toriety by his inordinate consumotion of liquor, being under its fnfluence nearly all the time. The story now goes that thirteen years ago, while engaged In making moon- shine whisky in the mountains of North Car- olina, he killed a revenue officer during a fight. For this he was sentenced to twenty- four years in tha penitentiary. He eseaped arter serving four years and ever since kept his identity concealed until a few weeks ago, when he was met one dnr by a man who had form:-rl( been a guard in the North Carolina penitentiary. This man recognized him and advised the old authori- ties. The governor of North Carolina issued the proper papers, but while they were going through the mafl s gentleman in KEden received a letter from a friend in Birming- ham telling the story, and_ this gentleman communicated the fact to Compton.

Quite a number of union carpenters are still at work. There are strong probabilities now that the bricklayers will demand an advance, There is a very strong disposition all around among the contractors not to accede to the demands. Efforts are now being made to se- cure workmen on the outside to take the places of those now out. — The Commission at Memphis, Mewmrius, Tenn., May 5.—The inter-state commerce commission concluded its labors to-day after hearing evidence from mer- chants from Memphis, Louisville, Lexingtoa, Little Rock and Newnort, Ark., to the effect that the enforcement of section four would be disastrous to the commerce and Industries of the points named. ‘The opinion prevalls that the testimony taken here has not Im- ressed the commission adversely to section our. e Michigan Central Directors.

He Will Speakin‘the Exposition Hall ~Grievances Which the Painters Complain of — The Brick Mnluerr .3""" Firm, Asking for Higher Compensation. All the painters, per hangers, and sign writers in the city will be ordered out to-day, as far as their employment by the master painters is concerned. The Omaha assembly of these workmen adopted a seale of prices and hours of work two months ngo and sent it to the master painters with the expectation that it would be adopted. Tke portion of it applying to the paper hangers was to go into operation on April 15, and that ap- plying to pamnters on May 1. When April 15 arrived the Master Painters nsso- ciation refused to comply with the scale affecting the painters. The latter, being unwilling to create a break if 1t could be avoided, awaited until the date for the adoption or rejection of the paper hangers’ scale. This arrived and the master painters took the same action they had before, A committee from the assembly waited upon the master painters yesterday and notified them that it was desirable ‘that a conference should be arranged. 'I'he master painters held a meeting last even- ing to which the committee went. The members of the committee claim that they were discourteously received. They were neither asked to sit down nor given civil attention. After they had stated their case they were told to go out and wait fifteen minutes. This treatment, they say, was so pal- pably offensive that without waiting the specified time outside the door they re- turned to the place where the assembly was in session and reported. W hile they were engaged in deliberation the follow- ing communication was received: MASTER PAINTERS’ ASSOCIATION, | OMAHA, May 5, 1857, § ‘Lo the Committee of Palaters and Paper Hangers: Th T painters of the city of Omaha this day assembled in meeting have decided by unanimous vote to not concede to the prices and regulations as submitted by your committee. Very respecttully, H. ROSENZWEIG, Secretary, A reply was formulated to this and sent to the master painters. The reply in substance asked what the latter would agree to. The messenger, however, did not reach the place of meeting of the as- sociation until after it was closed, and all of the master painters were gone. In consequence all of the workmen will be ordered out to-day.n The committee sftom the paper hang- ers and painters state that the scale of prices which was adopted and sent to the master painters is.lower than that in force in Kansas City, where they claim living is less exwensive. The{ have sevoral other griovances, not the least of which is that the master painters have adopted a black-listsystem. When anem- ploye is discharged, he is given a card, and while, without it, he can obtain no work from any ‘other master painter, there are occasions when it, of itself, prevents him from obtaining employ- ment. The card,js in cipher, and the master panter punches it in a certain way which is only <intelligible to other masters. It is claimed by the emplo; that this punching is for the purpos: designating incompetent workmen; but the committee of the assembly allege that the punches also indicate whether a man has ever been active in connection with labor movements. In other words, the effect of the system is to enable the employers to blacklist a man if they so desire. v In order that the public may not suffer from the strike, the workmen announce that any private individual who desires painting, paper hanging or sign writing, may call at the Truth office, 119 Norfi\ Fifteenth screet, and make application, in response to which workmen will be furnished. Powderly. The following notice was brought to the BEE office last evening: POWDERLY'S COMING. The delegates from the various Knights of Labor assemblies, comprising the commit- tee of arrangements on the reception of T. V. Powderly, will meet at the police court, cor 16th and Farnam streets, this (Friday) evening at 8 o'clock. A full attendance'is required, Mr. Powderly will be here and speak at the exposition building Saturday evening, May 7. Mr. Powderly’s presence at the exposi- tion building will undoubtedly call forth a very large audience. This is his first visit 'to Omaha, and the many stirring evdnts which have occurred during the past year will make his speech very in- teresting. Ryl The Brick Molders' Strike. The brick molders gathered 108 strong at Spoerle’s park last mght, every mol- der in this city and South Omaha being present. The meeting was of much in- terest. A resolution was unanimously adopted that no concession should be made from the demand for $3 for 6,000 bricks, and that the molders should stay out until this is paid. The published statement of the dis- agreement, in yesterday's BEE,. was not correct. The molders, only, are striking for an advance from §2.50 to 3. The un- divided sentiment last night was that no 3“0 should go to work for less than 3 per ay. The secretary of the brickmolders’ union states that the following yards are already m\yinf #3: G. B. Rickiin & Son, Younger, oll, H. Hep- Swonsonsfr's, and oper & Co. These yards employ thirty molders. It is clygimed that the above named proprietorsof yards will stand by the union in its demand, as they would naturally do. . The molders are quite indignant over some of the statoments made by Mr. Frank Bailey, the brickmaxer of this city, which are given below. They claim that molding is a trade and cannot be picked up by any ond in three months or a much longer 'time, and that then only a compfaralively few men have the eculiar endurance; pecessary to stand he hard work, T! price given by Mr. Bailey they olaim to be too low, as no good brick can be bought for less than alo, and most of it'sglls at $11 and $12. ne molder stated last evening that he would agree to huyall the brick Mr. Bailey would sell him,for $0. As to the capabilities of the owners of the yards to get molders they profess to feel ‘no un- ensiness, becanse lhe{. claim the men cannot be obtained. They disclaim hav- ing anything to do with the reported dis- turbance at Frank Bailey's yards yester- duy, and state that it was caused entirely by a lot of boys who had been working elsewhere as offbearers. The secretary of the union states that the $3 demand is the ultimatum, and that before the molders would yield they will go at work at something else. AN EMPLOYER'S STATEMENT. Mr. F. E. Bailey,an old and prominent manufacturer of ‘brick in the city, was seen by a reporter for the BEE yesterday morning and asked regarding the trouble. He said there was no just causé for the wtrike and that the manufacturers would never concede to the domands of the men. The FRIDAY. MAY 6. 1887. moulding of brick, he added, was really not a skilled work and any sharp labor could pick it up in three months. Hence he deemed #2550 per 6,000 brick high Brick wheelers wore getting $2.00 day and they would not exchange places. Mr. Bailey said that the state- ment that brick was selling for #13 was false. The was $4 per thousand and bmlders who made their own brick could set them in the walls for §10. 1t was the opinion of all the brick-makers in the city that if a concession was made at this time without any just cause there would be more asked in the near future. He swid there were plenty of men who w willing to go to work at the old s, but the ring leaders would not rmit them. Some of the manufacturers intended to get new men and proceed with their work, at the same tima protecting their employes at all hazards. Yesterday afternoon a number of the strikers attacked the moulders in Frank Bailey's vard south of the Sixteenth street viaduct, Brick bats, stones, ete,, were used and a lively time was pro mised. The police were notified and the strikers dispersed, On Wednesday the manufacturers held a meeting and the following agreement, which will undoubtedly be signed by all the yard owners was entered into: OMAHA, May 4, 1887, To whom it may concern: We, the undersigned brickmakers of Omalia, have this day decided at & meeting held by us that we will not make any con- cession to brick-moulders, and that wo con- sider this as a bond of honor betweon us,and the standard wages shall bo §2.60 for 6,000 brick.

The southern part of the city did itself proud last night by a public congratula- tion of the gentlemen who were chosen for city offices in that section dur- ing the late election. These were John Rush, city treasurer, and Messrs. Hascall, Lee and Van Camp, aldermen at Iarge. The pleasant exercises took place at Cos- mopolitan hall, on Thirteenth street, and were attended not only by several hundred residents of the southern por- tion of thecity, but by many members ot the present city council and several prominent citizens. The A. O. H. band was engaged, and before the entertain- ment took place in the hall rondered several seloctions in the best style of this well-known musical organization. The proceedings were opencd by James Brennan, who nominated Michael Donnayan chairman. ¢ the tendered position the t was a meeting, irrespect- ive of party, to congratulate their neigh- bors who hud been successful candidates in the late municipal election. He paid & high tribute to each of the gentlemen in whose honor the meoting was held. Mr. Rush was the first called upon and he made a very eloquent speech, paying particular attention to the slanderous attack made by the ilerald upon him during the late campaign. de pro- nounced it false, mualicious and veno- mous, and said what astonished him most of all was that when the charges were proven false the editor of the Her- ald did not have the manliness to re- libel. Altogether he thought this newspaper assault had = gained him votes and he verily belieyved had thccmlnmlgfl con- tinued a week longer he would have doubled his majority. Mr, Rush then dwelt at considerable length on the 1m- portance of the last municipal election and his own position as_an Irish-Ameri- can citizen. In speaking of his native land and what it demanded of him he was eloquont to a degree that brought repeated applause from the larg audi- ence. Reference was then made to the rcpublicnu‘pnrly and among the pointed remarks of the speaker were, ‘‘Aye, [ would rather go down ten thousand times with James G. Blaine than ocenEy the highest position in Cleveland’s cabinet.’” Referring again to the attacks made upon him he dressed up Pat McArdle and George Crawford in sarcastic style, say- ing that the first real assurance he had of his election WAaS when he heard the two worthies named were Ywhlling falsehoods about him through the pot houses of the city. Mr. Rush’s remarks were received with much enthusiasm, and his audience seemed to be in thorough sympathy with him when he referred to the newspaper attacks of the last caml aign. Mr. Hascall followed and made one of his characteristic spceches such as he only ean make. He declared himself first, last and all the time for improve- ments within the linuts of anper econ- omy. He would work for the whole city, and notwithstanding the fact ot pressing private business would give the greater part of his time to the public welfare. “Yes,” said he, *'I believe in taking m Bellevue on the south, Florence on the north, and going out to the Big Pappil- lion for water.” Repeated cheers greeted Mr. Hascall's remarks. Aldcrman Lee followed i one of his neatly worded and sharp Y inted speeches. He, too, favored public provement as far as the taxpayers could afford and home labor could accomplish. He did not believe in foreign workmen who came here in summer and deserted the place where they had made their money during the winter. Hé paid a high tribute to the_personel and work of the present council. Mr. Auchmoedy, deputy county clerk, then followed with some very amusing references and anecdotes. Alderman-elect Counseman was then called upon and ared himself em- phatically in favor of improvements. Messrs. Lowry, Mercer, Bechel and Shelly succeeded in short addresses, when on motion of Mr. Brennan the andience adjourned to the lower hall of the Cosmopolitan, where Alderman Hascall had prepared a bounteous subply of refreshments for all who desired to partake of good, hearty cheer. The meeting was an exceedingly successful one, and undoubtedly was ap- rrccin{cd by the gentlemen in whose honor it was inaugurated. It was no- ticeable for the pronounced attitude taken by the three aldermen elect on the question of improvements. tract the They Want a fecount. Messrs. Boyd and Mageath, the former one of the unsuccessful candidates for councilman at large, and the latter in the same boat on the Seventh ward ticket, have applied for a recount of the vote of that ward. If sixteen more votes could bo obtained for him, Boyd would be elected, and if twenty-three more could be found in his favor, Mageath would be among the city dad: e Short ol y Wheat.
