o i BOOMERS THREATEN TROUBLE _Preparing For Another Invasion of the Indian Territory. LAMAR AND THE COMMISSIONER. Contradictory Statements As to ‘Whether Cleveland Saw the Recent Letter—The Sccretary Inter- viewed —-Washington News. The Kansas Boomers Again, Wasnixetox, Nov. 12.—[Special Telegram | to the Ber.]-It comes here from Kansas and the Indian territory that the ‘‘boomers™ are preparing to make another raid into the latter country. General Sheridan says that such efforts will be made this time as to make much trouble for the military. The Ber correspondent is reliably informed that the leaders in this move are busily engaged in circulating reports that the Indian territory will be open to sctijers by lation at the approaching scssion of cougr The effect of these reports is to deceive unsuspecting parties and induce them to move into the territory, for the purpose of securing eligible and desirable locations. As the law prohibits such oceupation, various schemes are devised to escape molesfation from the cavalry forces which are constantly skivmishing in the ter ritory to find and eject intruders. Numer ous applications have been re by Gen sral Sheridan from persons residing on the southern boarder ofKansas for permission to entor the Indian territory to engage in hunting for a few weeks. “‘Here is an application,” said Colonel Kel- logg, of (‘.mmrufi Sheridan’s staff, to me, as he picked up a letter from a resident of Cald- well county, “who desires to spend a few months in the territory for the benefit of his shattered health:: He 1s so utterly broken down physically that he wants permission to take thirty-five friends along to care for him, ‘We have numerous applications from hunt- ing parties for authority to enter the territo- ry. The numerical strength of these appli- cants plainly indicates their real purposo. Of course the desired permission will not be anted, nor is it likely that the standing or- ers of troops to exclude intruders will be modified. The cavalry were kept busy last winter in hunting and ejecting boomers, and “it 18 probable they will have plenty to do in “the same line the coming winter.”” o The Lamar-Sparks Trouble. WASHINGTON, Nov.12 .— [Special Telogram to the Bee.]—It is stated upon the best of authority that Lamar not only wrote the let- ter to Sparks after full consultation with the ¢= prosident, but that the latter read and ap- .proved of it before it was sent to tho com- ~missioner. Sparks will retire from his office, but whether he will do so voluntarily or wait o be crowded out is not known positively. His friends are divided in their advice on the subject. Spark’s successor will without rea- sonable doubt be Assistant Commissioner Stockslager or George W. Julian. Both are Indiana men. Julian is at present surveyor general of Mexico and next to Carl Schurz is the most eminent authority onland questions. He stands high in the interior department and white house. Stockslager has shown good ability as assistant commissioner, al- though has had little opportunity, and ' has warm friends in Secretary Lamar and Presi- dent Cleveland. It was intimated to him be- fore he was made assistant commissioner that Sparks would retire and that he would succeed Him. But it is not at all certain that Land Com- missioner Sparks will hasten out of his posi- tion either at the dictum of retary Lamar, cor command of President Cleveland. An ofcial in the interior department said to your correspondent this evening: “If Sparks will assert the power he holds, he can drive Lamar and so deeply entrench himself that he cannot be evicted. Sparks is_an honest i, man, and_what he has done, and which has X rplexed Lamar, has been right, lawful, and n the interest of the pebple. ~ Sparks knows H all about the influences which have served to overtnrn his decisions, and if he only will strike back, he can defend himself in a way { that will dislodgo Lamar and_rally the ad- * ministration to his support. But he probably loves his party better than office. However, he will wait to be removed. He does not in- | tend to resign. Lamar has been very angry towards Sparks ever since the commissioner beat him in tho celebrated Miller case from Oregon last spring. Tho president, who stood by Sparks in overthrowing Lamar, has ever since entertained a very high opinion of the commissioner, and he would never have gufforcd Lamar's letter, but for Lamar and ilas. ‘What Lamar Says. WAsmINGTON, Nov. 12.—Secretary Lamar, during an interv with an Associated press reporter to-day, said in view of the published statement that his letter to Commissioner Sparks had been submitted to and approved by the president before it was sent to the commissioner, he wished to say that neither the president nor any other member of the cabinet, and indeed no one outside of his of- . fice, so far as he knew, had any knowledge whatever of the receipt of the commissioner’ . letter or his reply thereto until it was de- } livered to the president last evening. 4 The House Office Contest., ‘WasniNGToN, Nov. 12.—[Special Telegram to the Ber.]—Up to the present time it has ‘been thought that the only contest over the oftices of the house would be in the door- keepership, It is gencrally conceded that Donelson, the present incumbent, will be de- feated for re-clection owing to the many ene- mies he has made in distributing the patron- age of his office, Those who are usually well posted, have thought that the opposition ‘which existed at one time towards General Clark, the present clerk, has been dissipated and that he would succeed in securing the place for another term without much diffi- culty. This impression received some color from the fact that no other candidate for the clerkship is known to have been actively en- gaged in canvassing for votes among the members clect. It has just been discovered, however, that there s another candi- date in the field, and that he has done some very effective work in his own behalf. This candidate is Mr. Will- fam Raines, of Rochester, N. Y., a brother of State Senator Raines, who is well known to every democrat in the state of New York. It is said that Mr. Raines has been so suc- cessful irf his canvass that he will enter the caucus with the support of the entire New ‘York democratic delegation at his back, and that he will also have a number of the New mlund and western members. Mr. Raines here during nearly the whole of the last seasion. and ho succeeded in winning a great many friends for himself among the old mem- E During the past summer he has tray- led a great deal through the south, and it is R &l:lr he has been actively at work, while k has been resting in the belief that ho E 10 have a practical walkover in the race. ero fs & New York candidate in the field Donelson's place. This is Asher Bar- ‘mett, at present In charge of the law E&my of the house. But the door- pership is generally considered to be the property of the south, and for this reason ere s little probabllity 'of Barnett's suc- s, cven under the most favorable circum stances. Some of the friends of the other candidate say that the candidacy of Barnett ouly & “*blind,” and that he is really in tho d to aid Raives, inasmuch as the members from New York in the last houso considered themselves as very unfairly dealt with in the matter of patronage, and as many of them threatened to bolt the caucus unless red bo&er treatment In the next distribution, it 13 thought that Rains may have an excellent chance of winning in the present contest. It is & great many years since the Empire state has held ono of the {mportant positions of the house, and many of the mewmbers think that the state sbould unite to insist upon rec- ognition of the fact that she sends move dem- ocratio members to congress than any other state in the union.

Garneau Has Control of the Western Association Franchise—Flashes I'rom the Diamond—Items About Local Sports, The Latest in Base Ball. Omaha base ball matters romain in statu quo—that is in a condition of agerevating uncertainty. The Oskosh deal is shrouded in mystery, and although it is pretty gener- ally understood that the proposition that was submitted had been accepted and that £500, more or less, had been remitted to bind the contract and secure players, the outcome i extremely problematical. In the first place who and what is Oskosh team, and what will Omaha get when she sccures it? Kroch, their famous pitchier, has been gobbled up b; one of tho _clubs of the wealthy nations league, and their promising short stop and celobrated left flelder are also gone. To be sure they have Lorett and Wilson, the crack Bridgeport pattery, left, and claim to have contral of dick and Cohne, another battery, in addition to O'Connell, first base, Shannon second, Doren third, Miller short, rty, right and the promis of two other players’ of national notority. Thisis what fanager Scloe says, but is it sol If it is, and Omaha gets 'tho men above men- tioned she will have a fair average team. Too much should not be expected of them, how- ever, for the pace which will be set in the new ‘western association will be much hotter than that of the late lamented league. But_aside from the club and its players, the BEE is in possession of a little informas tion that may be of very general interest. The local managers aro handicapped in a most exasperating way, because, in_reply to a solicitation to President Morton to have the Omaha franclso issued bodily to the Omaha base ball association, they are in- formed that it has been issued solely and ex- clusively to Joscph Garneau, jr., and not to the Omaha base ball association and Joscph Garneau, jr., s was ‘published in the city dailies immediately subsequent to the late meeting _in Chicago. This 18 & pretty = how dye do, 8o think the ~ local management. It not only spoils their matured plans, but delays progress aud entails much éxpense and work that would otherwise have been obviated. Now the question is what will Garneau do! He and Morton and Von der Aho are undoubtedly solid with each other, and if he persists in_holding onto the new western association franchise he can do so despite the frantic protestations of the quon- dam management of Omaha base ball mat- ters. These are facts, and although they may be disagreeable ones, they are facts all the same. If Mr. Garneau desires to control base ball in this city he can do 8o, and prob- able with success, too. He would be neces- sitated, perhaps, in securing new grounds, ete., and experience no inconsiderablo troubld in getting the ball rolling, but he can do it if he wants to. Flashes From the Diamond. Maessitt has been signed for next year and will play right fleld. He is in Troy, N. Y. Jautzein is still in Chicago _and liable to stay there. Fusselbach is in Philadelphia. Manager Selee, of the Oskosh-Omaha ag- gregation, will arrive in this city some time next week. Frank Bickford still has charge of the grounds and will probably be engaged for next season. Swift, Omahas old_second base juggler, has signed with the Bloomington, IlL., state league club. Krehmeyer has returned to St. Louis. Bader, Genins, O'Leary and Healey are also in the Mound City. Dolan, of last year's Tincolns, has signed with the new St. Louis club, and Jake Ken- yon, of the Topekas, goes with the Browns. Dick Dwyer and Joe Walsh have a job on the Gregon Short Line railroad. They are weighing mail, and run from Portland, Ore., to Granger, Wyo. Frank Bandle has been appointed on the staff of umpires for the new Western associa- tion. Frank is an old player of repute, knows the fine points of the game, as ho knows his A B C's, has a good voice and should make a capital umpire. The local management, in case everything pans out satisfactorily, with reference to the franchise, will put in folding chairs at the grand stand, build a scparate stand for ladies and extend the bleaching boards clear round to the left field foul line at the ball park next spring. The salary of an umpire in the new west- ern association is $1,000 and expenses, Each umpire will preside at only six games in cach city. and ere the end of the season makes the complete circuit. There have been many changes made in the rules governing these officials. If aman is fined, and the umpire fails to see that the fine is collected before the club leaves the grounds, the amount of said fine will be deducted from his salary. Miscellancous Local Sporting Items. Frank Parnell and J. R. Stice, on a recent. goose hunt at Willow island, up the Platte, dropped seven geese out of a flock of nine. John Petty and H. A. Hardin shoot a tele- graphic match, 100 blue rocks each, for a Y’““c of &0, with B. W. Swigert and O. H. cr'l:y. of Kansas City, Wednesday after- noot. P. H. Allen, the game dealer, will give a grand turkey shoot on the Penrose & Hardin rifle club range next Tuesday afternoon. George A. Hoagland has returned from a two woeks' goose hunt up the legendary Platte. He reports the birds uncommonly scarce, still during his stay managed to bag something like one hundred Canadas. H. A.

For the last four months N. B. Falconer has been busily engaged build- ing quite an extensive addition to his store, but in his usual quiet and unas- suming way has said nothing about it. ‘We were surprised the other day in walking into the new building to find how extensive it is and that it is nearly complete, and Mr. Falconer tells us, they will oceupy it and throw it open to the public within a fortnight. It is four stories including the basement, and they will use them all, they are putting in a freight elevator for goods, and a Crane elevator for passengers, and as their magnificent store will now be 132 feet in depth this will certainly be by far the finest and largest store west of Chicago. Mr. Falconer tells us that this addition has been absolutely required, by the enormous increase in their bnsiness and the stock they have to carry, not ono of their departments having room enough to hold their stock, much less to show the goods properly to their customers, the whole of their ex- tensive basement, 132 fect in length, will be devoted during the holiday season to the display of toys.
