Drs Morxes, Ia., May 28.—[Special Tele- gram to Tux Bre.]—About 1,000 persons witnessed the game at Athletic park to-day between the Kansas City and the home team. The grounds were rather heavy for good play- ing and numerous errors weroe made, some inexcusable ones, notably a wild throw by ‘Wells to Stearns after two men were out in the first inning, allowing Kansas City to scoretwornns, In the third inning Holliday knocked the ball over the left garden fence, chasing Quinn and Shafer around the bases, In the fifth inning Des Moines also got three scores, which gave them a safe lead of seven to two against tho visitors and everyone looked for an easy victory, but Kansas City secured three runs in the seventh and two in the eighth which tied the game. Neither ceceeded in scoring again until the thir- nth when Des Moines crossed the plate wice and Kansas City once, which ended the ame. In the thirteenth inning Johnson and ells, third baseman and _catcher respect- ively 'of the visitors, collided in trymg to capture a foul fly. The claret flew from both player’s noses and Wells was compelled 1o retire, being relieved by Gunson, The 0308000000020 200000820000 1—8 Base hits—Dcs Moines 13, Kansas City 18. rs—Des Moines 5, Kansas City 11, Bat- teries—Des Moines, Wells and Sage: Kangus City, McCarthy and_Wells and _Gunson.

MixNEAPOLIS, May 25.—[Special Telegram to Tux Bex.]—The home team and St. Paul to-day played off the tie game of last woek, and the apostles won easily. With threo pitchers available, Manager Gooding put young Nicholson in the box again to-day, being his third game in five days, including the fifteen-inning game, and his second in succession. The result was vory naturally disastrous to the home team, as the visitors had little trouble in finding the ball. Young Sowders did not exert himself, but pitched a very fair game. Umpire Hagan again dis- tinguished himself by having a spectator ejected from the grounds for taking excep- tions to one of his decisions in a manner more forcible than polite.

Sun- — Lively Democratic Caucus, WASHINGTON, May 28. -The democratic caucus reassembled at 8 o'clock this evening with rather a slim attendance. Randall was present but Speaker Carlisle was not, nor was Cox, chairman of the caucus, and McCreary, of Kentucky, presided. The greatest secrecy was maintained as to the proceedings. After considerable discussion and upon motion of Holwan, of Indiana, works of art were stricken from the free list and the present duty retained. After the adoption of the motion there did not seem to be much method exhibited in the the treatment of amendments, After a discursive dcbate had run on for two hours the members of the ways and means committee made a de- termined effort to save the bill from further tinkering, and arguments were made in which attention was called to the danger of pur- suing further the policy over-loading the bill with amendments. Finally these viows cry: talized in a wvroposition that all prec caucus action bo disregarded and that a vote be taien on the bill as a whole and as it came from the committee. I3ut this excited the ire of all of the members who had been lucky enough to sccure the adoption of their amendments, as well as those who hoped to be as well treated, so that ofter a lively de- bate the proposition was withdrawn, Stone of Kentucky made an effort to have agricultural implements placed on the free list, but this amendment was rejected. In fuct at this stage it became apparent that the preceding debate had not been without effect, and more determined apposition was shown towards amendments encroaching upon the salient features of the bill. Heard of Mis- souri secured the adoption of an amendment reducing the duty on news type from 25 to 17 per cent. ‘To meet the criticisms of the re- publicans upon the coal and iron ore scctions to the effect that the bill would admit of the free entry of thesg articles, the lauguage of the paragraph was changed so as to forbid any such construction. Kaolin and pottery clays were taken from the free list and restored to their old duties, but the duties on pottery were left to be fixed at the ucus. The Mic 1 iuterests of salt and salt machinery was ikewise left open for future action, Adjourued till Wednesday. e Succeeds His Father, Jacksonvinee, 1L, May 25 —William L.

Disastrous Hail Storms Des Moixgs, In., May 28.—(Special Tele- gram to Tue Brere.)—Late last night South Des Moines, Sevastapol and Bloomfield town- ship were visited by one of the most disas- trous hail storms ever known in this part of the country, doing damage estimated at £5,000. The fall of hail was terrific and the rain desconded in torrents. The hail stones varied from the size of & hazlenut to that of a hen's egg and were piled and drifted in many places from two to four foet deep. This morning Robert McNutt, of South Des Moincs, found the hail so deep in his yard that when he ran a common sized shovel straight down into it less than six inches of the handle was left in sight. In Mr. G. Van Genkel's yard in Sevastapol it was drifted so doep that one could walk over an ordinary board fence upon the drifts. South of the city the damage to gardens, fruit trees and vegetation generally was incalculable, Win- dows were broken, vegetables beaten into the ground and fruit and forest trees stripped of their foliage. Waterous' nursery was in the range of the storm and sustained a large 10ss, Mr, Gannel's loss on his brick yard and fifteen acres of markoet garden is re- ported at §,000.

The latter have been jealous of the former, thinking that they combined to carry off the honors of the school, so they determined to brea up their meeting. The anti-secret so- ciety men met in a mob about 11 o'clock in front of the socicty rooms in chemical and physical hall, determined to break up a jomt meeting of three societies. There was great excitement, The wmdows were broken by stones thrown from the crowd, and the cry, “Down with the secret men, " came from nearly a hundred students. Water was shut off from the artificial foun- taius in the room,and eyanogen gas in combi- nation with carbon bisulphide was liberated in the lower halls for the purpose of driving the socicties from the room. The “segret” men attempted to come out, but the door had been tied from the outside ‘and egress was made through a lower window. Rotten eggs followed them. Onp “secret” man drew & revolver and fired, probably to the ground. \The “sccret” men'rallied around the door. One man ran out with a club, another with a revolver and threatenedto shoot.

Tur Bee several days ago published an announcement to the effect that the state veterinary commission had decided to make an inspection of the dairy cattle in this vicinity with a view to discovering and taking steps to eradicato tuberculoses of which it was thought some cases might be found in the county. On last Friday Dr. Gerth, state veteri- narian, commenced his work of examination. He visited a dairy several miles west of the city, found several cows which he thought needed careful watching, and then ad- journed his inspection until yester- day when he was accompanied by Major Birney, of Crete, George W. Barnhart, of Columby members of the veterinary com- mission; Dr. Geerge Osborne, deputy state veterinarian of Fremont, and Dr. Ramac- ciatti city, deputy state veterinarian and the BEe man who happened to_notice the array of medical gentlemen and followed to ascer- tain what they proposed doing. A drive of several miles brought the party to the dairy, which is a well-kept one and milks about thirty-five cows. Two attenuated cows were selected from the herd. They had previously been exam- ined by Dr. Gerth and were again subjected to inspoction. They were yoked in the barn. Their temperature was ascertained. That of the smaller and more_emaciated of the two was found to be 105 degrees, an increase of two and a half degrees over the showing made on Friday. The animal was excitable, nervous, breathed with difficulty, cough and showed in every limb the wast- ing away which was as pro- nounced as it would have been in a human under pulmonary affection, The creature's lungs were then tested, by sounding on the outside of the body, for a distance bohind the shoulders. This examination satisfied the doctor and the attending surgeons that the lungs were affected. A consultation ensued and Dr, Gerth stated that the case was un- doubtedly one of tuberculosis, but that he thought there was also a complication which was in part at least occasioned by pneumo- nia. It was decided to ki the animal. She was accordingly tied to a tree in a beautiful cattle grove. Commissioner Barnhart placed a revolver at her head and fired. The cow dropped in an instant, and after a few ner- vous contractions was dead. The surgeons then in a fow moments de- nuded the left lung and found that Dr. Gerth’s diagnoses had been correctly made. The surface of the organ was studded with raised dark-brown spots, many of which were as large as a nickel and looked like so many buttons upon a cream-colored bae. These were the deposits resulting from the disease. Careful handling of the lungs dis- covered within substances as large as a mar- ble, which were hard and could be felt in fifty places in the organ. Some of both the interior and exterior tubercles were cut in twain, revealing grayish, yellowish and translucent maiter. This the docters stated originated in a soft substance, excited sup- puration which generally sought escape from the body; afterwards 1t became hard and formed as above described. The traces of pneumonia were discovered in the solidified and discolored portion of the lungs as also in the inflammation of the serous membrane parts of which ad- hered to the ribs. Large tumors were also cut from the glands under the jaw which were doubtless responsible for the difficult respiration under which the animal labored. Dr. Gerth says there are about six more cows in the herd which he knows to be affected with a cough. These in time will be examined and 1f fotnd to be suffering from tuberlosis will be killed also. The com- on, however, will proceed carefully and ently in the matter, the desire being to resort to extreme measures only when it is absolutely necessary. anwhile the owner "autioned to separate the sick animals from those who are not sup- posed to bo affected, and under no circum- stances to.permit their milk to be sold. The owner has promised strictly to com- ply with this injunction, and stoutly asserts that he has not been selling their milk for some time. The commission holds that this injunction is absolutely necessary because the milk of tuberculous cows is con- sidered injurious to health mnot alone to children, but even to adul They also hold that the disease is contagious among cattle, and while one may not now foresee the out- come, it would not be surprising if where tuberculous cows are found in herds all the other cows which have been associated with them should have to be killed. For every cow killed the owner will be reimbursed, and it is quite likely that the general government may be called upon to aid in this method of paying for the cradication of the discase. On the farm on which the cow above mentioned was killed six other cows bave died within a couple of months. Two of these died from *‘bloating,” und the others, h imation of the commission from tu- culous, which is but another name for umption.

The question will naturally arise in many minds how theso vast numbers are maintained and controlled in sor- vitude, says the 'Frisco Chronicle, The answor is that all people are tanght obedience to the head of the family, whether that person is the real patent or whether he merely stands in loco parentis, The teachings of par- ents, of the schools, of the books of religion and of the government are all in favor of such obedience and submission. There can be no living in China outside of a fami- ly. Tobe a nobody’s child, is to be an outeast, and hunted like a wolf on tho mountains. In order to live in a house, to travel on the highways or byways, to buy food or clothing, toget employment or shelter, A government pass is abso- lutely necessary, and that is always based upon a family pass. All law, all the officials and all the people of a vast and densely populated country ure joined against any fngitive from a amily, In addition to all these the terrors of religion and superstition are brought to bear to enforce obedience to the family It is implicitly believed that those who are disobedient in this world or outside the family association will be wanderers and outcasts through all the worlds to come. It isthe terrors of this belief that make the victim of the Chi- nese family authority go uncompluin- ingly to the lingering but sure death of the guano islands of Peru; to the pestif- erous rice and cane fields of Cuba, and it is these terrors of the future which make the unfortunate slave girls endure lives of shame and infamy in foreign countries, where by raisinga hand they could be freed. —— Where Were the Pyramids Built? The answer to this question, says the Trade’s Supply News, is beyond mod- ern conjecture, so imperfect is our un- derstanding of the extent of the me- chanical knowledge of the anciente. Their appliances are believed to have been of the simplest order, and the implements excoedingly erude, and yet they were able to couvey these enor- mous blocks of stone for vast distances over routes most difficult; and, having accomplished this, to raise them to a great height, and fit them in place without the aid of either cement or mortar to cover up the errors of the stonecutter. How all this was done is one of the enigmas of modern science, 1t has been generally believed that in- clined planes of earth were used to en- able the workmen to raise the - hugo stones to their places, the carth being. cleared away afterward. But it is possible that” the ancients had a more extended knowledge of meehanical pow- ers than we usually give them credit for, and that they made use of the machinery very like that employed by moderns for lifting great weights. Large cavities are found in some of the stones in the pyramids which may have Dbeen worn by the foot of a derrick turn- ing in them. That there were enormous numbers of men employed in the build- ing of these ancient Structures is well known. These results of their great aggregated strength we , but they left no record of the means by which this strength was focussed and brought most effectually to bear on their mighty tasks.

FARMERS STILL HOLDING OFF, Corn and Oats Rule Strong and Migher in Spite of Unexpooted Recoipts ~Provisions Lower—Cattle and Hogs Brisk, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKFE Crioaco, May 28, —[Special Telegram to Tre Bre,]—Wheat tradors spont most of the morning session waiting for supply figures, and when they came there was not enough surprise in them to cause much movoment cither wa The decrcase of 1,860,000 bushels was not so much as the bulls hoped for, but was rather more than tho bears predicted, and s6 thero was no encouragement in it for either party. Estimates had varied widely befause of tho uncertainty regarding the amount on the lakos, and then about the opening of nav. igation each yoar, and for a few woeks aftor- wards, wheat disappears and reappears in manner which puzzies all but the official re- corders. Duluth showed another large de- crease, but this was not as significant as the fact noted by the friends of wheat that the four principal pri- mary winter wheat markets of Toledo Detroit, St. Louis and Kansas City have now in store in the aggregate but 1,855.000 bushels of wheat. They claim that farmers who are still holding their winter wheat are thoso who are able to carry it, and they will do so unless there is a very considerable advance in prices. Inview of this and of the small re- serve in farmers’ hands anyway, these small stocks in winter wheat markets are thought to be very significant. Chicago increased her stock of winter wheat during the week 23,352 bushels. Trade was in small volumo during the early partof the session, while traders were waiting for the visible supply figures which came more slowly than nsuai. The opening was i @?c highor than Satur- day’s closing on tho natural reaction from the sharp break of that day, but the disposi- tion of the local crowd was rather bearis There was nothing new to stim late prices, and upon this absence the bears counted for sagging the market. However, the downward tendency was not marked and at one time, when the returns seemed to indicate a large d @ in the visible, thore was an advance in July wheat of Sga@by est point touched, but this was all lost luter and the close was at thebottom price of the session.

However, the estimate is for 1,128 cars for to-morrow, but the correctncss of this estimato was disputed by some who belioved that Sunday’s inspection on the Illinois Central and Wubash roads, which was included in to-day’s reccipts, was also included in this estimate.
