BEATEN BY THE UMPIRE. The Omahas Downed By the Lincoln Team and Ben Young, THREE CONSECUTIVE DEFEATS. The Denvers Down the Hastings Handsomely—Base Ball, Kaces and Other Sports Through- out the Country. Ben Young’s Victory. There was a large crowd at the ball park yeaterday afternoon to see the Omahas and Ben Young play the last of the series with the Lincolns. It was an exciting game, notwithstanding its lopsidedness, and 80 well did the loeal team play up to the sixth Inning that the larze audience grew vociferousty demonstrative, for it looked as if Young was going to be beaten. But alas for numan hopes and calculations! The Ohio school teacher recovered himself in the sixth, and tne way he sat down upon and crushed the life out of the Omahas was enough to make the tears come to the eyes ot a potato. In fact, the home nine stood no show with the redoubtable Young, and flew to pieces like a clay plgeon hit smack in the center with an ounce and & quarter of No, 8 shot. But without further joking the game obbery, a gift to the Lincolns, pure nple, by tiie umpire. There 18 no excuse for Young. Heisknown to be one of the most reliable authorities and one of the best posted men on the national game in the country. He can umpire if he is #o minded and his first effort here on Wed- {II::dny ‘was a specimen of his best capabili- ‘The game opened up in a way that prom- {sed the audience a fine exhibition. By per- fectand extraordinary field work both “sides were retired in almost one, two, three order up to the sixth inning, when on Dolan's fumble, Shaffer's muft of Dwyer's long fly, and KFusselbach’s safe drive, the Omahas scored two runs, and in the seventh added another to their side. But the Lincolns came in for their turn at the sixth, and on Young's umpiring scored five runs. This paralyzed the Omahas and they gave up without further strugele. In the elghtb, on some more vile umplring, the visltors ran up threo more tallies. T ¥ OMAUA, POR. Al TH, B8, PO.

All Denounce Henry George as an Enemy of Labor. NEW York, August19, —(Special Telegram to the Ber.| — Six enthusiastic meetings were held last night by the socialists, at which Henry George and Dr. McGlynn were roundly denounced. A reporter asked Al- exander Jones, a soclalist leader, what he thought of the situation, 8o George wants to catch the farmer vote, does he? Doesn’t he kun ow that 40,000 farm- ers out in Ohio could not pay their taxes last yearand were sold out by the sheriff? George can’t hoodwink the farmers. They can never understand his theorles. To catch them he wants to throw us overboad. We are the bugbears. If we are thrown out bodily we will be ten times stronger than when we went in.”” - Dr. Marcus Merkin is the founder of the socialists. He made this statement to a re- rter: *“The soclalists will now paddle helr own canoe and will never more have anything in common with the united labor pnrt{. ‘The next step luxk-nll{ must be the eliminntion of all that was for the Interest of labor in the platform of the united labor party, even down to the very name of the rlrlv itself. It must not be called the united labor party any more. Half of the working- men will no longer belong to it.” William A. Wallace, who was the organ- izer of the united labor pln{. said: “It looks too much like machine volitics.

AN INVESTIGATION ON THE TAPIS Leading Aldermen Packing Their Grips and Preparing to Leave —Europe the Mecca of Their Pilgrimage. Jhicago's Boodle Afilictions. ©Onreaco, August 19.—[Special Telegram to the Bre.|—Itis by no means a matter of news to the Chieago public, already almost surfeited with scandals concerning the cor- ruption of public officials, that the attention of the state’s attorney and the citizens asso- ciation and indeed the entire thinking popu- lation has been concentrated for some time past on certain manifest “deals” between big corporations and the bribeable part of the city council. Valuable franchises have been granted one after another, the benefits of which to the grantees were Immense, but to the city next to nothing. At the same time it has been a matter of public motoriety that contemporaneously with these successive gilts to corporations aldermen who in priv- ate life were unable to earn more than barely a living have waxed esormously rich with- out having to toil or spin. "Ihe Inference of course was plaln that the remuner- ation for these rich gitts was pass- ing into the private pockets of the people’s representatives, common talk on the streets and wherever men do congregate, tor many months past, and the gdod work done In the case of the corrupting of county commissioners is now probably to be followed by searching fin- vestigations of the city courreil. All this has suddenly crystalized by the sudden disap- vearance of Henry Sheridan, who was con- fidential secretary to Dwight K. Tripp, vice president and general executiva manacer of the Chicago Sectivnal Underground Electric company. U'rtipp 1s no longer connected with the concern, bu! has tripped over to merry England, where, it 1s sald, he means to stay. He obtained from the council, for the com- pany,a virtual monopoly of the underground conduit rights mn the streets of Chicaco. How he secn theso privileges and what was pald for them and whom will be made the subject of judicial inquiry. The under- ground company was sold to the Arc Light and Power enmunnr. then to the Consumers’ Gas company, and is now owned by the Gas L'rust. Sheridan, tho confidential clerk, had been picked up by Lripp, and Is known to have been in the secret of the **deal” by which the franchise was obtained. 1t {s asserted that he has given reliable information touch- ing these transactions to the Citizens asso- clation and to Grinnell, Information which is calculated to make more than one public official quake in his.boots. It is not certain that Sheridan has run away. It is conject- ured bfl some that he may have been toted off by the state, after tho manner of its deal- fng with Nick Schneider, and may turn up at any opportune _moment when wanted by the grand jury. He is a \m"on of some- what loose " havits, and has been sorely 1n need of cash lately, so that he may have been driven to “squeal.” This may therefore prove the enterloi wedge into an Inquiry, which, if bezun at all, will not stop tifl the immense mass of hidden rottenness is un- earthed. The underground conduit fran- chise is by no meansthe only “‘deal” eoncern - ing which the state’s attorney has evidence of Dl'lbsr{. Yerkes and his north sida rall- way, besides merous other corporations, will be shown up 1n no favorable light. It is rezarded as a Jiitle singular that at this inter- esting evoch in our official history so many prominent persons who must certainly have cognizance of the transactions mentioned, if there were any, have taken leave of absence and that some of them propose to remain away probably until the limitation within which any investigation can only extend ex- pires, Some have gone and more are pre- paring to go. 1t 18 not to neighbor Canada this time. but to distant Furope, or perhaps around the world. THE 81. JOE TKAGEDY, Great Indignation Over the Shooting of Farmer Gann. 81. JoskrH, Mo., August 19.—|Special Tel- egram to the BEE.|—The shooting of Farmer Samuel Gann is still the tople of conversation in this city and county. The wounded man is still alive, but his recovery is not thought possible. A reward of $2,500 is offered by his family for the arrestand conviction of the criminals. ‘Lhe county isin a state of excitoment over it. ‘There is not a clue as to who did the shooting. When it occurred it was dark and the men did not advance to where the light from the house could fall upon them. Besides this they were masked and ran away as soon as their work was done. Sheriff Andriand yesterday morning, with a posse of twelve men armed with Win- chester rifles, rode to the scene of the shooting and made a thorough search of the surrounding country. Not the slightest clue could be obtained. Mr. Charles Fuquay, a neighbor of the Ganns, who was the second one on the scene of the shooting on We dnesday night, tracked one of the vihiians southeast through the barn ard to a point about 150 yards from where he shooting occurred. “He says the foot- rint was ten and one-half inches in length, his 18 all the evidence the fellows left be- hind them. Farmers in the vicimity have been riding over the country for forty-eight hours, but with no success, and the chase has been Alnndon?d as & fruitless one. Sirce the manher of shooting has been looked into there is an Inclination to the belief that robbery was not the motive for the crime at all, but a desire for revenge on the part of se who had a real or fancied krudge against Mr. Gaon. This opinion s not only entertalned by the neighbors but by Mrs. Gann herself, who admits that robbers would have proceeded differently. It is presumed by those who go even far enough to point out the class of men who did the shooting that some of Mr. Gann’s hired men, with whom hedid not part on the best of terms, have taken these means te get revenge. Yesterday the Gann residence was visited by hundreds of {umnlu. many of them from the city, who went to express in person their regrets at the oecurrence and to offer services in ung direction Mrs. Gann might suggest, Probably no farmer in the entire county is better known in St. Joseph than Mr. Gann and he numbers his friends here by the thousands. In the country it is the same, and when the writer visited the residence to-night there were tied in the open lot at the front of the large house a dozen or more horses hitched to vehicles and as many saddle horses. In and around the house were at least fifteen people, all anxious to do what they could. The reporter was informed that the crowd had been that large all day, people coming and going constantly, If caught, the people who didjthe shooting will never see the Inside of the jail. More nerve than was displayed by Mr, Gann after the shooting has never been hea ot in this country. The third shot had been fired when aliss Julia Gann, who was passing through the nlnlnf room, ran out on the porch and clapping har' hands ordered the fellows away. The men ran a a fast as they could upon seeing her, and she with her father started in pursuit, the two chasing them over 200 yards from the house, Re- turning, the old gentleman ordered the nelgh- borhood roused and the big farm bell was rung for almost half an ‘hour. Mr. Gann himselt superintended all that was done. Presently he became weak from loss of blood and said he believed he was hurt. An exam- ination followad and the two wounds lo- cated. By this time the neighbors bagzan. to arrive and two of them wera sent post haste 1o the elli‘ for a physician. The physicians are astonished at this unusual and wonderful exhibition of vitality.

Mor- row, of the army)lay made an important recommendation ¥fderning the supply of recruits, which wift %robably be tavorably considered at army headquarters. In the ovinion of Genegil.* Morrow, the present practice of supplying recruits to companies butonce a year ald’then in large detach- ments, should be diggontinued, and recruits should be sent to companies to fill vacancies as they occur. In: ghls way, he thinks, a steady stream of #festy men would be contin- ually flowing in to companies, and would, so to speak, be quicker assimilated by this sys- tem. Under the present custom nearly every company in the army receives oach year from six to a dozen men in a single bateh. This works badly in all respects. The new men do not readily fall into the ways of the cumrnny. and being so numer- they form cliques among themselves. Gy al_Morrow thinks s better plan is to fill as far as practical vacancies as they occur. It is thought that If the systein sug- gested by General Morrow s adopted, it will have the tendency to legsen the number of desertions. The experiment of paying United States tmog! munmliy instead of quarterly, now ing tried by Paymaster-General Rochester, has, it seems, becn favorably received by both officers and men. On account of the limited number of paymasters, it has been possible to make the monthly payments onl. to central posts, Application are receive daily from the more remote posts, asking that they be Included among those to receive the benetits of the new rule. It has been neces- sary to refuse all such rcquests, It is be- lieved, however, that before long the troops will be sufficiently concentrated and railroad facilities so increased as to make it possible for the entire army to be paid once a month. lowa and Nebraska Pensions.
