The largest Monday crowd of the season ‘was that which assemblea at the base ball park yesterday to witness the game of the present series between Omaha and Des Moines. There were probably fifteen hundred pe ple in the stands and upon the bleachers, ‘while the areu reserved for vehicles was well fllea. ‘The wi, too, was extremely good na- tnred and quite enthusiastic, and_created a good deal of hub-bub over the fine plays of each team, Omaha had a walkover, and Willis was in the box at that, but he pitched an eclegant ame, striking out seven men, giving but two ases on balls, and allowing but seven hits to ‘be scored off of him. Hennessey, the young southern rotator, ‘who received such a warm reception atthe hands of the Omahas a month ago, tried his luck azain yesterday and with a great deal more success. He held tne sable rol slugeers down to seven hits, two of which ‘were two-baggers and one a home run, the latter being made by Cleveland, who drove the ball ever the left field fence. The contest opened up very rockily for the prohibitionists. Whitely made an inglorious Cooney's high fly d the batter took seo- ond. Hart then repeated this flowery break on Cleveland’s sky-scraper and Cooney came home while Grover took his place on second. Strauss flew out to middle and Crooks was thrown out at first, but Walsh made a two- bagger and Cleveland came home. Andrews sent a grounder to Smith, and ge inning closed with two runs to the home anvs credit, ‘That was nice for a starter. The visitors drew a_ blank in their half, as they did, in fact, in_their first five times at the bat, auring which tme they only made g little hits and never gota man pust muft of rst. 1n the third the home team collared three more.runs. Cooney reached first on Hatt's second vite muff and trotted home, together with Clevelund, who caught one of Mickey Hennessy's choicest drops on the endof his tree and sent it soaring liko & bird out over tho fence and over the ho use- wp»t toward Walnut Hill. ©f course the spectators had to make a noise over this exploit, and they did so quite jubilantly. Again in the sixth Omaha scored. She got in two runs. After Canayan and Nicnols had been re tired, Willis hit safe, and by daring running stolo both secoud and third, Hennessey then presented Cooney with his base, and he stole secbnd; then both runners came ambling home on Cirover's third safe hit. In their half Des Moines also got in two runs. Maskrey made dArst on an excusable fumble by Walsh, and after Connell had waftod, came-home in front of Smith, who hit n'bomer over the right field fence. It was not a fair hit, though, by any means, but foul by six feet, but Charlie Briody is getting so fat he can’t see more than half way cross the diamond, and, of course, he permitted it to go. There were no more_tallies made until the nipth, when the Prohibitiomsts gathered in another brace. Macullar made a single, and Hennossey gov his base on Strauss’ miss of his third, and both crossed the rubber on Connoll's hit. This deft the score 7 to 4, a very satisfac- tory ' result indecd, considering yesterday's bard fought draw. The score: Cooney, m. .. .. Cleveland, 8b. Andrews, Tb. Canavan, 1f Nichols, rf.

Regarding the situation in Sidnoy over the relations botween the eitizens and the State bank of that place and Frank B. Johnson of this city, tho Telegraph of that city in it latest 1ssue says: The situation of the State bank affairs this week is practically unchanged, so far as the paymont of the bank’s debts is concerned. After much delay, and tho breaking of many promisos, J. P, Cavanangh, Mr. Johnson's representative in the matter, arrived in the city, prosumably for the purpose of making propositions for sottloment. Johnson's agreemont with Messrs. McIntosh and Ickes it is true left out of sight all such things as propositions. He agreod to assume and take charge of everything. In the event of his keeping his word a proposition would have been eatirelv unnecessary. Mr. Cavausugh came up ‘Tuesday morn- ing. A meeting was callod, at which most of the creditors were present, at 80'clock in the afternoon. The meoting was adjourned until Wednesday evening, atwhich time Mr. Cavanaugh agreéed to present his proposition —if he had one to present. On Wednesday evening tho creditors mot again, expecting to hear n definite proposi- tion looking toward a final settloment of tho difficultios, This was the proposition Mr. Cavanaugh made orally, after a rambling peroration upon the good qualities of Frank Johneon, his love for his dead friend and his sympathy for the bank's creditors. Mr. Johnson would pay the remainder, if the creditors would take the assets for fifty cents on tho dollar. Half of the portion which Mr. Johnson would pay would be money and the rest Omaha and 3oone county real estate. This was a vory fair proposition, apparently, and the creditors presout were inclined to accept it, believing that 1t would, in the end, realize very nearly 100 cents on the dollar. Mr. Cavanaugh estimated the assets of the bank at_about $60,000, porhaps & little more. The linbilities ha put av $39,- 000. The statement made by Mr. Taylor showed only §60,000, but Mr. Johnson had resurrectod Morgan's paper to tho extent of $26,000, endorsed by Johuson. and held by an Omaha bank. a It will be remembered that Mr. Johnson has never mentioned these notes before. It had probabiy disappeared from his mind that he was on Morgan's paper for §26,000. Now by this proposition Mr. Johnson offered to subtract this $26,000 from half the liabilities. As a rosult, he would pay the Sidney depositors $17,000, half in lands, half in money. The remainder thoy must realize from the bank’s assots. The proposition ap- peared quite fair, though it was not by any means what Johnson had promised, and Cavanaugh was asked to put it on paper, .that the individual opinious of the creditors vresent might be had. Mr, Cavanaugh did but produced a document so completely different from his verbal proposition that he d without further argument that ne- ns might stop if he had nothing further to offer. J. J. McIntosh suggested that if Mr. Johnson would turn over to the Sidney creditors one-half the liabilities in cash and real estate they would probably accept the assets at 50 cents ou the dollar and pay ull legitimate claims against the bauk. Mr, Cavanaugh feared that Mr. Johnson would not consider himself morally responsible to such an extent. The meeting then broke up. In this manner has Mr. Johnson redeemod his promise to sce that nobody but himself lost a dollar by the failure of the State bank. Supposed to be a man of integrity and char- acter, he has made promises by the score, and has in _every instance failed to keep them. - This fact is all the more glaring be- cause Mr. Johnson's lies have been entirely gratuitous. If, as he states, he is not con- nected with the bank, there has been no call for his promises. The moral responsibility dodge which he endeavors to work will ot wash with the people ot Sidney. They are well aware that he has not made his hun- reds of thousands m the past -acter of a tender friend philanthropist. They are much tore to believe, in the light of circumstances which have developed since June 26 that Frank B. Johnson’s knowledge of Morgan's affairs and the causes of suicide is far greater than he has yet rovealed. But concern ing the dark possibilities which lie in the mystery of thav tragedy the Telegram has nothing to say. It is sufficient to say that an abundance of proof can and will bs pro- duced to compel Mr. Johnson to pay the Sid- ney creditors in full. The matter will be taken into the courts if necessary and Mr. Johnson will find himself confronted with facts that to say theleast will not be pleasant. s Mr. Ralph Elkins lives in Marionville,Mo. and is a successful farmer. He says that ho has been a great sufferer from impurities of the blood, which made his limbs stiff and gave him pain in the lungs; but that he took Swift's Specific, and it soon relieved him on- tiroly. .
