Anniswas on third and O'Connell on second with two out when Tebeau hit 0 Carroll. Carroll muffed the ball, Annis and O'Connell crossing the plate. It was then discovered that Cooney’s name was on the score card abead of Tebeau, and the side was therefore out and the runs did not couat. ®maha scored twice in the third on Cooney's Mase on balls and Miller's hit over the fence. Miller, however, stonped at third in order to keep the catcher up behind the bat but was lefuthere. In the ninth O'Connell sent the ball over the fence aud made the circuit.

GENERAL SPORTING, The Omaha Tcam and the Recent Changes Made in It. There is a general fecling wmong the patrons of the guwo that the Owahas have been decidedly strengthencd by the recent changes 1 and Manager Sclee is evi- dently determined upon winniug the pennant at no matter what cost. The latest informa- tion is that O'Connell, Mofict, Shaeffer and Flynu have been released, and report says that big Wilson, the catcher, has also been lot out, but this is improbable. Patsey Tebeau, of the Minneapolis te am, has been signed and will play regularly from his out. He is undoubtedly Lln' an»l third baseman in the association, snd will add a tower of strength to the local team. He is a sure hit- ter, tast base runuer, und a stoady,reliable fielder, Joo Millor wiil be moved up .to short, while Cooney will alternate betwaen right field and hehiad the bat. MoGacr, who i at preseut flat upon Lis buck i Minneapolis with malaria, will take O'Connell’'s place at first, and it will consequently be seen that the weikest points in the team ‘have been materially strength- ened, and 1t will be a wonder if they don’t forget right to the front. All talk abount the present Omaha team Laving signed for mext your is the veriest bosh. The rules governing all association under the nationul agreemo pecially for bid the signing of players until after the 20th day of October. That eleven of the vresent team will be reserved, thore is hittle doubt. Reserving players and signiug thew, how- ever, are two different things. The Omaha Colisenum.

He proposed to discuss briefly some questions connected with tariff legislatiou. In the course of his remarks he described the people of the United States «as being mer- cilessly plundered for the benefit of capital- ists. As to the hypocritical claim that pro- tection was beneficial to the laboring classes, he asked how it was that after twen % years of a high protective tariff factory workers found there was less certainty of getting yment and that there was more pov in the land than ever before. He quoted from Mr. Blaine’s Augusta speech of yesterday an extract in relation to trusts, and said that Blaine had taken upon him- self to ridicule Cleveland’s message on that subject, and now passed as an apologist and defender of trusts. These remarks of BElaine would add a new feather to the plume of that gallant kunight, and endear him anew to the hearts of the money lords. The conference report on the army appro- priation bill was then taken up, and Mr, Cor- man stated the grounds on which he had de- clined to sign the report, and on which he would vote against it. He admitted that it was a great improvement on the bill. But the main feature was that the entire appro priation for the construction of ordnance was placed in the hands of army ofticers, and that no opportunity for competition was offered to investors or contractors. lis d that it had never entered his mind that this was to be the exclusive work af army ofticers. The first delivery of steel was to be made eighteen mouths from this time, and he supposed that there would be still two or three sessions of congress in which to settie the question as to whether the construction of guns should be given to private I. ablisl A;'lll\ or should be done at Water n, Mr. l lumb agreed that the conference re- ports should be adopted, but thonght that there ought to be sumul!nnq in it that would afford more stimulus and opportunity to the inventing public than was proposed. l m.l!i\ the discussion closed and the con o ' army appropriation bill "The house fortification bill was presented and referred to the committee on appropria tions.

The senate then adjourned. Honse, WasHINGTON, August 16.—In the house the fortification appropriation bill passed this morniag without division.
