- Z LEFT N THE LURCH ACAIN, | Sesirssig, v o arsr esem Biitmere. 4 08 188 8624 Omabia's Ball Tossers Loseto Lincoln After a Harrowing Struggle. ANOTHER VERY FINE GAME. Topeka Downs Kansas Oity—League ‘®Wnd Association Games—Races and Other Sports At All Points, Another Defeat. Five or six hundred enthusiasts went out Lo the park yesterday afternoon to see the Omahas have revenge on Dave Rowe's ag gregation of curiosities, But their turn didn’t come, the Lincolns again pounded out & victory in the ninth, and the audience sat as mum as oysters while the slaughter was golng on. “After the game they hurried away from the grotinds as if the small-pox had bfoken out there, and last evening it was a diftleult matter to tindany one who had wit- nessed the game. MHart and Healey were In the points for their respective nines. Both pitched fine games, but young Hart carried off the honors of the day. He had territic speed, splendid d and curves, and was very effective, he Governors went into the game with conlidence and played very styong. The oldest man in the world, George Shafier, car- ried off the fielaing nonors and batted hard. The out fielders on both sides made brilliant catches and were liberally applauded, while Messitt’s second hase (lrl-v was phenomenal, and Dwyer, Walsh and Fusselbach were in great form. Still they had to lose. Defeat clung to them like the Old ian of the Sea clings to Sinbad, and shake 1t off they can- not, no matter how good they play. Kor tive straight innings they were liber- ally applied with whitewash, but in the sixth doughty little Walsh smashed out a three- sacker, and Messitt got his base on an error by Hart, Walsh running in from second. Dwyet’s hit to Hoover was fumbled long enough to let Serappy Jack in, but Dick died at first, They made one wore run and tied the” game In the eighth. Jantzen to the utter astonishment of the multitude made a three-bageer, and scored a moment later on a throw from short right field by Grandpa Shaffer to cateh him at third, {That was all the Omahas could do. he Giovernors began their fun in the very first inning by scoring two runs, on Lang’s single, Sbaffer’s three bagger, and Dolan’s beautiful sacrifice. In the third they added apother on Hart's safe hit, a steal, and a blockhead of a play by Jantzen, who en- deavored to catch a runner at second with a man on third. On the return of the ball he muffed it,» while Hart's white stockings twinkled across the plate. Nothing more was done until the ninth, ‘when the Lincolns, probably thinking the boys had had exercise enough, came in and knocked out the winning run, Lang rapped & safe one out toward Genins, and scampered round to third on its duplicate by Shaffer. ‘Then on Dolan’s long fly, he trotted home, ;v;l\{Llnculn had another Omaha sculp at her THE BCORK.

Healy will try it again this afternoon, with Jantzen as his backstop. The Omahas played an errorless game yes- terday, yet they were bedten. Tom Brown, the California sprinter, has been released by the Pittsburgs. Patsy Cardiff lett Killen in bad condition, 'l.lu has an injury which resembles a rup- ure. John Donaldson offers to place 85,000 on Patsy Oardiil against any man in the United States. Jantzen awoke the slumbering echoes yes- terday afternoon by smashing out a three bagger. Oh me! oh my! How Dave Rowe did smile a8 Lang slid in'over the plate in the ninth yesterday. ‘Walsh is applauded every time he comes to the bat now. He is hitting the ball like a slugger from head waters. ‘The Omaha Gun club shoot takes place this afternoon at the club’s grounds back of Shaw & Field's warehouse. Fifteen men faced [lonle{ yesterday after- noon in succession without a'single one mak- ing tirst, and yet the Omahas lost, Once more the Detroits have a ciear lead in the Nationalleague by two games more won and two less lost over the Chicogos. Mr. Herbert Rothery is in receipt of a let- ter from Thos. 8. O'Rourke, of Boston, backer of lke Weir, the Belfast Spider, Maybe the Lincolos weren’t a happy set of ball players last evening. For the “second time they pulled out of the hole by the skin of thelx Incisors. Our next victims are the Hastings on Sep- tember 3, 4 and 5; the Denver on the 25th, 20th and 30th. The close of the season is coming on apace. If there are yet any lingering doubts in the minds of Omaha ball admirers about the local team’s ability to play, let them go out and see this afternoon’s game, enquiring whether a match can’t be made between the Spider and Tommy Miller. Rothery replied "that it could and told O’Rourke 10 send on his terms, ‘I'here are several interesting sporting events on the tapis, among which may be classed an_excursion up the river one week from Sunday, when a couple of good light weights will don the suits. Herr, of the Lincolns, as a coacher, is a bore and a nulsance. He makes a sickly at- tempt at imitating Latham, of the St. Louis Browns, and Tebeau, of the Cincinnatis. What Mr. Herr most needs is a cork. The Omahas are determined to redeem themselves thisafternoon, orknow the reason why. The two xllmeu they have played this week with the Lincolns have been excellent, both of them, and with just a little luck they would have carried off both of them. Mctenry Johuson, as yet, has heard no- thing from Bllly Wilson since his acceptance of the latter’s challence. ‘Tho Black Star doesn’t take much stock in Wilson’s good in- tentions, and would much x?raf«sr the pleas- ure of knocking out John P. Clow. Ed. Rothery’s saloon and sporting head- quarters on Dodge was the scene of a very notable gathering of sporting men last even- ing, the occasion being the 36th annivarsary of the kenial and handsome proprietor’s birth, which occurred in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., in 1861, There were in the neighborhood of fifly gentlemen present, and in the midst of the festivities Mr. Dennis Lane stepped to the center of the room and presented Mr. Rothery with a very handsome solid gold chain, accompanying the presentation with a very happy little speech, which elicited rounds of enthusiastic applause. This tribute of respect and esteein was the gift of Prof. Ed. Miller and M. Rickeits, Mr. Rothery’s managers, and his_brother, Mr. Albert Roth- ery, the artist. The congratulations had hardly subsided when Mr. Lane handed Mr. Rothery, with more appropriate elocution, an elegant gold handled silk umbrella, the gift of Mr. Ed. Rothery and Colonel Sandy Forbes. ‘The embarrassed recipient recover- ing trom his surprise responded with feeling and elomlence. winding up with sn in tion to the house to join him in a gl extra dry. To the melody of the harp every- body stepped up with alacrity, and for a few moments the scene was a character- istically joyous ome. Order once more restored, Ed.

This was from Inumerable friends of Mr. Roth- ery’s, who hold him in high esteem for his countless manly qualities, and his untiring efforts In the furtherance of all legitimate and healthful sports, and was in honor of his thirty-second birth which was to-day.

TRANSCONTINENTAL HOADS. They Oan't Stand the Competition of the Canadian Pacific—Begging & Pardon For Ex-Banker Fish —Washington, Hurting Trans-Continental Roads. WASHINGTON, August 18,—[Special Tele gram to the Ber.]-The attention of the inter-state commerce commlission has heen called to the inroads which the Canadian Pacific rallroad has made into the traflic business of the American trans-continental companies since the inter-state commerce law. It is stated that the Jaw.in connection with the treaty of Washyngton, which per- mits the transportatforf “of goods in bond from points in one country through the ter- ritory of the other back to the country from which the consignment was originally sent, has resulted in the material advantage of the Canadian Pacitic company. This road s, of course, not affected by the provisions of the inter-siate law. The long and short haul clause does not apply to roads across the border. Naturally, therefore, the Canadian Pacific road is enabled to cut freight rates to figures far below those can roads can offer o ship- pers, 8 sald by n gentleman interested in one of the transcontinental lines, that the Canadian corporation has been enabled to draw away thousands of tons of freight which would naturally come east of the American lines, and all the Pacific com- panies have determined to ask the commis- sion for some relief. If the commission is rln\\'erlc!s and itseems that it can do abso- utely nothing under the circumstances, the ronds will appeal to congress ror relict, "They will have a resolution offered directing the president to notity the British authorities that the United States desires the abrogation of that section of the treaty of Washington under which goods can be transported in bond from one country through the other back to the country from which the Ship- ments originated. " This will ot course meet with decided opposition, but the rallway people will make a ght to pass it A Pardon Asked or kx-Banker Fish WASHINGTON, Aurust 18.—[Special Tele- gram to the Beg.|—It is now two years since efforts were first made to secure the pardon of ex-Banker James D. Fish, of New York. Fish, 1t will be remewbered, was president of the Marine bank. He was interested with Ferdinand Ward in those swindling overa- tions wherein General Grant's fortune was swept away with those of thousands of oth- ers. The petition for Fish’s pardon issigned by scores of the most prominent merchants and bankers ot New York City. 1t was rep- regented at the time that Fish’s health was very precarious and that, as he could not live long, he ought to be given the poor consola- lation of dying at home among his friends. ‘The president quietly examined into these statements, but found them only true in part. He therefore refused to grant the par- don, saying that if any man deserved his fate it was this millionaire scoundrel who had had so little consideration for the tuture and happiness of others. But Fish’s son and daughter, who were foremost in urging the executive clemency, never abated a fraction of their efforts to secure the old man’s re- lease. Scarcely a week has passed since that time that one or both have not visited Wash- ingron. Their taces are as familiar to the at- taches of the white house as those of the persistent oflice seekers. At last, by their entreaties, the president has decided to open the huge packaze of papers bearifig upon the case and will probably give it a full consideration within the next fort- night. Those who are acquainted with the president’s vpinion upon the matter, how- ever, say it is not at all likely that he will agree to Fish’s pardon. How He Gets Demoocrats, WAsHINGTON, August 18.—|Special Tele- &ram to the Brg.]—Colonel [Switzeler, chief of the bureau of statistics, has discovered a neat way of evading the civil service laws, He 18 very frank about explaining It, in spite of the fact that he may get himself into ascrape. To-night, just after he had eaten his dinner, he was discussing the effect of the law, and said: ‘‘When I took charge of the bureau of statistics all the clerks were republicans. I have a few democrats around mcdnow. though, and 1 got another one yes- terday.” "Ih’x’l he pass the civil service examina- tion?"” asked your correspondent. “Ol, yes, to be sure,” replied the colonel. *“Then how do you know what his politics re? *'Oh, I havea way of finding out before the selection is finally made.

WASHINGTON, August 18.—|Special Tele- gram to the BEE.|—A prominent official of the treasury department, who did not want his name mentioned, said to-day that the Hawaiian treaty is in greater danger now than it has ever been before. *‘The fact that Hawailan sugars have lately found their way into New York markets,” said he, “will serve to open the eyes of man{ of the refin- eries there to the danger to their business which this treaty threatens. 1f the islands continue to Increase their output this recent consignment will also serve to stir up the op- ronauu of the treaty In the south, and 1 am nclined to think that those who have been indifferent on the uun{en hitherto will be compelled to side with those who favor al rogation in order to save some of their | dustries, In which they have a close interest. Indlan Troubles Settled, WASHINGTON, August 18.—[Speclal Tele- gramto the BEE.|—For many years there bas been a great deal of trouble between the Indians on both sides of the border between British Columbia and Montana.

New York, August 18.—|Special Tele- gram to the Bee.|—Replying to many de- ufals in the newspapers, Davison Dalziel savs in to-day's Truth: “I said in last week’s ‘Truth that Mr. and Mrs. James Brown Pot- ter were separated, and with full knowledee of the facts I reiterate the statement. 1t was Mr. Potter’s desire that Mrs. Potter should leave thestage, and she positively declined to accede to his request. ‘I'he separation is amiable but tinal, and when Mrs. Potter visits America in October she will certainly not live under the same roof with Mr. P’ot- ter. In all the controversy 1 am glad to sav that not a word has ever been uttered derog- atory to Mrs, Potter's reputation as a woman, The sole question at issue be- tween her and her husband has been one which arose at the time of her finally adopting the staze as A permanent career. In All this it may be said that Mrs, Potter’s father has had more than a considerable hand. Old Urquhart, who is mother and father-in-law rolled into one, has always, since the palmy days when Mrs. Potter elec- triied soclety with her tawdrv amateur per- formance, been possessed with the idea that his dnu{:mar was a born genius, T am pretty woll satistied that Mr. Potter has suffered in {hls matter from an overdose of father-in- aw.” KILLED IN AN ELEVATOR, Two People Crushed to Death and a Dozen Injured.

Mrs, James Lvnch, aged tifty-five, was crushed to death, ‘The eleyator boy, O'Nalll, had his back bro- ken and will die. A dozen others were In- jured, but none fatally. ————— 1lndians Troubles in New Mexico. SANTA FE, N. M., ' August 18,—|Special Telegram to the Bek.|—For the past three weeks General Miles ips been concentrating a considerable number of troops at the dan Carlos agency.

A telegram yesterday morning was published announcing the loss of a pack- age containing $2,000 1n transit to Butte, Mont., while in charge of the Pacific Ex- press company, Mr, Morsemann the president of the company, was seen yes- terday regarding the matter. Beyond the statement that the package was con- signed to a bank in Butte and contrained $10,000 instead of $2,000, he declined to talk further on the matter at present. ‘The loss was promptly made good by the express company assoon as reported and all due efforts are ng used to discover the teief and the missing money. As the telegram stated that the money belonged to an Omaha man and was delivered by him to the express company as a com- mon carrier, diligent search was made to fina the sender out without avail. The officers of the company will not venture to say what reports they have of the mat- tor beyond the mere fact that the money is gone. Whether it was stolen or lost are questions the answer of which the company reserves for its own good time. Some sensational facts are anticipated when the truth is made public. A Unfortunate Old Man. James Mosher, an old man of sixty- five who was arrested day before yester- day for threatening to shoot his own son, was ordered by Judge Berka to leave by the first train yesterday. Mosher lives at Richfield, IIl,, and the disposition of his property among his children has led to a most scandalous family quarrel, The l:mlilf' has been broken up, the mother and the greater part of the children com- ing to Omaha. Mosher deeded his tarm, with some $10,000, to his wife some years ago. Since the family quarrel he has been determined to recover the posses- sion of the farm from her, and with that end in view he followed her to Omaha a few days ago, when a disgraceful scene ensued, in which pistols and profanity figured. The family caused his arrest, and doubtless heartily acquiesce in Judge Berka's sentence.
