PRESS MEN WERE SCALPED Ticket Agents Demolish Them on the Local Diamond. THE OMAHAS HAVE WON A GAME They Defeat the Davenport Tail End- ers in a Close Battle—Sios and St, Paul a Game. Ticket Agents 20 The much-talked-of mateh game of ball between the reporters and the ticket agents, for the benefit of the yellow fever sufferers, took place at Association park yesterday aft ernoon. The audience was one of the largest and most enthusiastic not seen upon the grounds this season. There was a very large crowd of ladies, but most of thew were at home. “The reporters were nattily atuired in varie- ated uniforms, while the ticket agents wore ats, coats, vosts, pants, and some of them stockin After a long and internecine wrangle Hon. Spud Farrish was accepted as umpire, and, unfolding himself, assumed a position like that of the status of Nuicissus behind the plate, and in flute-like tones cried : “Play ball 1" Walters was the first man up. He knocked 8 fiy to center field, and Doc Tanner finall it ina corner of the fence and cut the $ay1ights out of it with his knifo, Yafko. hit s litle one toward second ‘and Gellenbeck went for it. He stop- ped on one of his feet, however, and it got away from him, Waltersand Larke both scoring. Chambers then hit w high one to Hopin and Dan ‘‘eat" it. Stanhope drove one right at Fitzmorris, and it went through him. James made an error big enough to eat scrap iron on De Bevois® hit, and Cooper sent both runners home on a fly to Tauner, which the latter got out from under only by the nicost piece of sprinting scen for many a g Aatloflold steuck out, and Mooros died at rst. In their half the reporters came within three of tying the score. Honin hit one with whiskers and overalls on it at De Bevois, who knocked it down with his fist, then jumped on it with both foct, and while Lie was trumping iv into the carth ' Dan reached second. Smith went out from Stan- hope to Larke, on a very closo decision of the umpire, § Smith being_within _twenty ‘nflh of the bag when Larke received the al Reporters 17, The roporters claimed that Stanhope had no right to throw the ball before Smith had started to run, Aftor a few hot words the battle ceeded. Gallenbeck drove one like a horse car past Cooper, and Honin, amidst the glad shouts of the populace, ran home. x Tanner smashed the first ball pitched with crushing force, and it rolled nearly to the pitcher. He was thrown out at_firs have been thrown out of the lof James now stepped up, and wich fire burn- Ing in his eye, said: “Look out, Mr. Stan- hope. if you sling that at me too swiftly L'll strike you with my fan.” Then Stanney fired it at him, and he hit it below the belt. It went up into the air and came down in a couple of coal scutties Wal- ters claims are his hands. But why continue this harrowing descrip- tion.

The Omahas run in their tally on an error of the home team’s short stop. Clark snd McCauley both pitched well. They were hit frequently but not eficiently, the balls always landing where there was a ficlder. The weather was cold and the crowd small.

ITS METHODS OF PROCEDURE Men of All Political Faiths Combine Agninst the Thugs and Heel ers—General Hoyey's Return A Fair fon League, INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 28.—The day General Harrison was one of quiet. He passed the time in his library, at work. To- morrow he will receive delegations from Cleveland, O, Chicago and La Salle, 1l It is probable that there will be two public re- coptions, A matter of the highest political import leaked out here to-day. It is nothing more than the existence of a great secret league known as the “Indiana fair election league,” whose membership comprises men of all shades of political connection. For the past two months the projectors of the league have been quictly perfecting its organization in every county in the state. The sole object of the league, as it is now understood, is to provent the casting of fraudulent and illewal votes. So far as known, its existence is not attributable to anyone on the part of either the democratic or repub- lican state committees. Full and reliuble particulars touching the membership and Orizanization of the leaguie aro. withheld by those known to possess them. 1t seems that its members are not to be known in their spective localities unless occasion arises to with cause an arrest or prosccute an illeal voter, in which event two or more members of the local executive committee will be put forth publicly as members of the league to conauct the jw)secution. General A. P. Hovey has returned from Washington and ro-cntered the state canvass. Ho has been detailed by his state committec, togother with Corporal Tanner, of New York, to mect Blaino at Goshen October 10, and accompany him on his canvass through Indiana. Chairman Huston to-day reccived the fol- lowing telegram : B0sTox, Sopt. 28.—It is stated in the east- ern papers that you have arranged to have me speak at railway stations between my ap- pointments. T hope this is not true, 1f it is, mny speaking in Indiana will last just one day. My throat will not stand it at all. JAMES G BLAINE. The committee replied to this, stating that it was not expected that Blaine would speak elsewhero than at the appointed meotings. Governor Hill will be met at Mitchell on October 12 by Governor Gray and a number of other distinguished democrats, who will accompany him on his canvass, General' Licb, of Chicago, addressed a large audicnce at the English opera house in this city to-night, Senator Turpio spoke at Rochester, Anna Dickinson at Wabash, Gov- ernor Porter at Rensacller, ex-Senator Buree at Fountain City, and Genéral Frauk Palmer at Koutts. ELECTION FRAUDS AT 'FRISCO. Ward Bummers Attempt to Bulldoze Republican Voters. SAx FraNcisco, Sept. 23.—The conditions of the three men who were wounded in the melec at the rooms,of the republican county commttee last night are fayorable for recov- ery this evening, with the exception of An- tone Christensen. The cause of the fracas is asyet not fully known, different theories being given by members of different political partics, There was, however, during yestor- day afternoon and last night, u secmingly organized effort by factions of the lowest classes of the city, styling themselves inde- pendent voters, to gain control of the ballot boxes and tear up or burn the bullots that were east at the republican primaries. Sev- eral of the most determined and bloody scenes were enacted, but no lives were lost. In some districts the scenes of violence ex- ceeded in their ruffianly character anything of the land ever beforc seen in San Fran- cisco. An Aadress to Colored Voters. New YORK, Sept. 28.—|Special Tolegram to Tue Bew.]—Fred Douglas, Hobert Smals, John R. Lynch, and a half-dozen other col- ored republicans, have issucd a long addross to the negra voters of the union, more espec- ally to those m the doubtful states, warning them of the treason and suicide committed by any man of African descent who-votes tho democratic ticket. Here are a few extracts: No class of citizens have a decpor_ interest atstake or a more solemn responsibility resting on them in choosing between these parties than the colored people in the doubt- ful states, for it may involve not ouly the loss of the elective franchise, but the loss of citizenship itself. This democi movement among the col- ored men has had more than four years' prowth and should have by this time formed some fruit. Can wuy of its advocates show that murder and rapine in the south have diminished! Can any one of them show that there is less re- pugnance to negro suffrage in that section? Has any democrat become loss vehement in denunciation of negro rule? Have lynch law, midnight raids, wholesale massacrés in uisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, South Carolina and Alabama ceased! 'Has any democrat on the floor of the senate or the houso of representatives made a motion to inquire into southern lawlessness and vio- leuce! Oh! colored men, be not_dgceived. Is it not plain that every colored man who votes on that side stubs the cause of his veople and makes himself, consciously or un- cousciously, # traitor and’ an enemy to his race! Apdin we implore you to remewber that the whole question of the future of the negro in the south is involved in the election now before you. ——— Maryland's New Wasn lection Law. vatoN, Sept. 28.—[Special to Tne It will be recalled that there was a vigorous campaign in Maryland a r ago in which the independents of the state com- Lined with the republicans for the purpose of securing a numver of election reforms, and for ridding the state of the ring rule which has cursed it since the Gorman element gained control. It was believed at the time that the reform element would be able to elect its state ticket, as well as a majority of the legislature, and there was very little doubt that this was done; but the same methods of counting which had been in vogue 80 long still prevailed, and the ring main- tained its grasp upon the throat of the stat Still more was accomplished than appearc on the face of the election returns. The de- termination of the ovponents of Mr, Gorman were so emphatie that the ringsters became alarmed, and when the legislature met they were forced to bow to public sentiment in part, at least, and the result 1s that the state of Maryland has to-day what it never had before—something like a respectable eleetion law. Supervisors of election have been pro- vided for, which insure the appointment of a non-partisan board of election officers in overy voting precinct of the state: There has always been a representativo of the minority party on these boards, but un- der the old method the appointments were made by the majority party, and the minor- ity had nothing whatever to say. Hence, their alleged representatives were selected from men in whom no one had any faith. Frequently the republican election officers were either blind men or so aged and de- crepit that they were absolutely useless. In the present election, however, there will be real republicans at every polling place. Not ouly will the republicans themselves sece to it that they are properly represented, but the reform association will aid them in their ef- forts to secure a fair ballot and honest count. ‘While it not believed that there is the faint- est shadow of possibility that Maryland can be recovered from the democratic ranks, still there is reason to hope that under the new regime purer politics will prevail there, and, perhaps, a congressional district may be cap- tured from the enemy. In any event, there is a much better feeling among all the re- spectable people of the state over the out- Took than there has been wny time in the pas at least since Lhe stute into the control of the of political cut-throats, ballot box nnl“cr! and beelers who Lave debauched EPTEMBER 29. 1888, publie sentiment,overthrown the will of the people, and prostituted the ballot to their own ends for magy years.

THE WYOMING FAIR. Yesterday's Track Events Marred By a Scrious Accident. Cueyexxe, Wyo., Sept. 28.—(Special Tele- gram to Tne Brr.]—The attendance at the Wyoming territorial fair was larger to-day than at any previous meeting.

On June 19, 1551, the . planets were 1n the same line aud the earth yielded to the tendency to approach the sun, amd since then cyclones, earthquakes, floods, cholera and yellow fever have devastated our, planct. The advance has been only a few miles, but the increased soiar attraction conteacted the carth’s sur- face, causing floods. The unequal shrinkage caused earthquakes. The atmosphere be- came denser, and cons blcully held more carbon and its compound in solution, pro- ducing microbes, and thus cholera and yellow fever. Several planets were in perihelion at the same time, in the years 542 and 1655, the seasons of the great piague and black death. Roldona; Foster Still a Fugitive. New York, Sept. 28.—Nothing has yet been seen or heard of William R. Foster, junior counsel for the gratuity fund of the produce exchange, who is alleged to have stolen $105,000 belonging to the fund, The excitement caused on the exchange by his forgery in no way subsided to-day, but was added to by the rumor that anothier of the mortgages had been discovered to be bogus, the amount of which would increase the sum stolen to $176,000. The only clue to Foster's whereabouts so far discovered points to the fugitive's flight to Canada. Should he be found there he will be extradited, as the ex- tradition laws cover his offenso. 1t is said the fugitive's father will make good the amountof the defalcation. ——— Berry Has the Duds.

These factional troubles do not amount to much in the election, They are evident only in preliminary skirmishing and wire-pulling. He will make a strong race —stronger I think than any one who could have been put up. You sce (confidentially) it is not an easy matter to find any one willing to accept such @& nomination. Sidewalk Inspector Allen-Connell will carry this county by over a thousand major- ity. Morton’s nomination is the greatest lift he could have received. Everyone knows Morton, which is a good thing for the repub- licans. He is a rabid freo trader, a member of the Cobden club, an Knglish sympathizer, o lobbyist in the interests of the scab rail- road, and if that don’t defeat him I am ready to vote the prohibition ticket. Boiler Inspector Standeven—He is & good man, of immense personal popularity, stands well with the laboring classes and will poll his full party vote. J. E. Smith—Morton is as able a man as they could have nominated, but I don't be- lieve he'll get the solid support of his party. Michael Maul—Conneil will defeat him in Douglas county by from 5,000 to 6,000 ma- Jority. Jeff Bedford—I'm a democrat, though I've never been a Morton man, but 1°think ne can go in with the nicest majority. John Sahler—His nomination is the worst that could have been made. He is an old wheel-horse who has now been turned out to pastur Fuclid Martin—I'd rather vote for a man of his intelligence and be defeated than for a nobody and have him elected. A. E. Coggeshal—He couldn’t get there in a four-minute pace. . Conoyer—It's going to be a close You can’t tell where the assistance is to come from abroad. William Neville, Plattsmouth. braska couldn’t send a better man to congress. You people up here don’t know how the farmers stand on free trade. , I have , but do Morton edly a man of emir to credit for the maintenance of his extreme opinions, although they may not be popular in this countr; I don't agree with him my- self; I'm no free-trader. T doubt Morton’s ability to poll anything like a MeShane voto, Marshal Bierbower—I understand that he isone of the fow Americans who belong to the odious London Cobden club, and I sup- pose is qualificd to preach its principles through the First district, but whether they will meet the views of the voters will be fully exemplified in November. He stands no show on earth. . S. StrawnI think Morton is too prominent a demoerat and too closely identi- fled with the failures and errors of that party inthis state to succeed againstany man standing on the broad principles of the re- publican party. Henry W. Yates—How do T like himi1— who is 'he, has he been nominated! Yest Then, I suppose, I am in a measuro_responsi- ble for his nomination, for over a woek ago L went to Charlie Brown, Popplcton, Me- Shane et al, and said that it would probably be the best thing that could be done. Mor- ton is a man of extraordinary capacity, and T am much pleased to learn of his nomination. He is a brainy man, and would rollect. credit upon the state of Nobraska if he should hap- pen to be elected. Louis Roed—Morton has been a_candidate 30 long it has become quite a chestnut, How- ever, hie is a man of ability, but he can't come anywhere near beating Connell. W. H. Hughes—He suits me oxactly. T always liked him, and I think ho is one of the best stump orators in the state. His election is a different thing Charles Ogden—I admiro him excoedingly. Heis a very able man, and pronounced In his ovinions, and should poll the full strongth of his party. I think all factional feeling should be cust aside after a man has been fairly nominated in a convention of his party, and I think most of the democracy will be found in line on eloction day, S. P. Morse—First class. I think the beautiful snow will cover him—that is, ho will be beautifully snowed under. His freo trado predilictions will bury him. Connell is an able fellow and will bo clected by a large majori Judge P. O. Hawes—Why, I think Mr. Connell should invite the democratic dolo- gates who nomina champagne spread tion, made hi on_more They have saved him about §,000 that he will” not now be compelled to distribute among the demoeraoy. Mr. Morton's well known free trade ideas and his isolation from many of the demoeratic leaders of this state, makes him a very weak candidate. Pat Ford—Everybody knows that I am not in love with Morton, and as a choice between two evils, T know uot which to take, W. J. Connell-I am not personally ac- quainted with Mr. Morton. | understand that he is & very able and intelligent man. T am not in a position to say much for him and do not desire to say anything against him. He mal a mistake, however, at the outset in raiding me as a railroad The fact is that I ne rep pd road company, and while T believe railr have done much toward building up our state and ougnt to be encouraged and fos- tered to a reasonable extent, yet I belicve in maintaining the rights of the~ pevple, and in all my fights 1 have been on the individual as against the railroad corporations. 1 think he has take as roported in the Herald in a railroad attorne, e S A RAIL TRUST. s they have, by this ac tyling me A Combine of American and European rcturers, Prrrssrne, Sept. 28.—Information has reachied here of the formation of an interna- tional rail pool. The ecombine was consum- mated at Glasgow and the continent. Carnc gie, Who was present, promised co-operation on the part of the American combine in the endeavor to advance and maintain prices The combine was consummated at Glas- gow, fnd includes Englaud and the conti- nent. Andrew Carnegie, who was present, promised co-operation on the part of the American combine inan endeavor to advance and maintain prices. The English Labor Tribune of the 15th inst., which is authority for this, says: “The announcement of the proposed forma- tion of the syndicato of the steel-rail makers of this country and the continent for the regulation of orders and prices is a matter of first importance. The establishment of this syndicate is at once an assurance that one great branch of Hritisn industry, is unow, after a period of great depression, 1o occupy ® better position. Igium, Germany and France are united with our own railmakers to prevent the continu- ance of the unnaturally low prices which have so long prevailed, and the new syndi- cate is promised an existence of flve years. Andrew Carnegie, oneof the most prominent of American rail producers, has Prmmud that the American manufacturers’ associa- tion will do éverything in its power to assist the ayndicate fn improving the trade.” Concerning this matter, sn ofcial of Car- negie, Phipps & Co. was here and said that thoy have recoived no information from Mr. Carnegie about the international combine. He said it would be o bencfit to Americ manufacturers to have prices advanc abroad, as competition would be loss bitter and the market would stiffen in this country. - THE YELLOW Excitement Subsiding at Jackson— Much Destitation Reported, JAcKksoxN, Miss,, Sept, 28, ~The high ten sion of feeling iu this community having sub- od, the city has assumed a tranquil statoe, Each day increases the number of demands for food.
