THE OMAHA DAILY BER:,THURSDAY, AUGUST 15, 1889. ONLY PLAYED EIGHT INNINGS But That Was BEnough to Make the Minnies Tired. OMAHA WON AN EASY VICTORY. Sloux Oity Turns the Tables on the Aposties—Seele's Benefic To-day ~ The Grand Circuit Races. Selee’s Benefit To-day. Manager Selee’s benefit takes place at the ‘ball park this afternoon, and promises to bo a rousing affair.

Carroll and Broughton, of the St. Pauls, will take part in the run- ning and thtowing contests, and a number of focal hights will nnnlclpnm in the other ath- letic performaucss, ~Managor Selee has done a great deal for \:m all in Omaha, and here is an_opportunity for showing an appreciation of his efforts, Standing of the Clubs. Following 18 the standing of the Western association clubs up to and including yesterday's games: Played. Won. Lost. Per Ct. Omata. 83 56 076 Omaha 11, Mianeapolis 2. A large and enthusiastic audience went out to the ball park yesterday afternoon to witnoss the coming champions and the Min- newpolis team try conolusions again. It was ladies’ day, and there was a larger number of the dear creatures present than ‘was ever seen upon the grounds beforo, and thoir bright, beaming faces and gay raimont lent a charm aud picturesqueness to the cene that no one other element could have supplied. . And they were not sorry that they turned out either, for they saw the whito hosed bri- a win an easy victory, and they clapped their tiny hands and filled the air with the music of their birdlike voices. There, now | The day was just the sort for a_ball game —bright and breezy—and everybody, down to the players, was feeling their very best. But tho story of the battle. Omaha, of course, went first to the bat, and they found Mr. Morrison, the old greased lightning twirler, pie, After Cooney' had flied out to Hengle, Cleveland took his base on balls, only to be driven home on a lovely three-sacker by Strauss. Crooks followed up this nice worik with a_rattling single, and Jakey skipped across the plate like a lamb at play. ‘The spectators applauded vociferously. The sweet sounds from the grand stand nerved Mr. Crooks up wonderfully, and stealing a aly glance at a couple of girls in the northeast corner, he made a daring blue- eyed steal of second. “Hey! hey! hey!” cried the delighted throng, and straightaway Jack stole third. Walsh then got his base on amuftof & thrown ball by Minnehan. The error, how- ever, was inconsequential, as Androws struck out, and after Messitt had reachod his base on four bad ones, Canavan did like- wise. Then the Minnies came in. - Their half was short and sweet. Driscoll got his base on balls, and stole second, onl, 0 bp loft, for old Farmer Miller wafte and Deor-foot Foster was turown out at tirst, and Hengle also. That wasn't very exciting and the spec- tators were ‘Luier, but they let themse!ves loose when the Omahas ugain took a hand at. the bat, for with a generosity that amounted prodigality, Mr. Morrison presented Nich- ols, Coonoy and Clevelund with first base in quick succession. That was awful—for Minneapolis, and Morrison's face became redder than Honra- han’s curls. He grew rosler still when Count Strauss caressed him for a single, which sent Nick home and still left the bases loaded. At this critical juncture that lad with the silvery jaw happened along again. He braced himself and flung his club aloft, and then, the first ball that Mr. Mor- rison released he smashed square on the oo~ ciput and it went sailing like o thing of life out among the carriages. It was an all-fired powerful lick, and Coonoy, Cleveland and Strauss came 'dash- ing acrass the plate likea torchlight vro- cession. Lucky Omaha! Lucky Jack! Mr. Morrison was no pork, and he knew when he had enough, 8o he developed a very sore finger right here, and an exclamation point, yelept Ebenezer Mitchell, took his place. 1t looked as though the chance was going to work, for Crooks never got home, Walsh went out on u foul, and Jack was thrown out at the piate by’ Minvohau, who gobbled up Ancrows® groundor and. shot. It nto Crossley like an arrow from a bow. Messitt's liner to Hanrahan ended the in- ning. For the visitors Minnehan struck out, and Crooks, after a circus siop which brought down the stands and curdled Mulvihill's lem- onade, threw Hanrahan out at first. Jevne flow out to Messitt. In the next Canavan and Nichols wero speedily retired, then Cooney made a two- bugger and _scored on Cleveland’s single. Hanraban slammed Strauss out at first. Then what did the Minuies do? Struck out! What! Yeos, sir, every last one of them, Mite hell, Crossley and Driscoll. Ah! j hat deception there is in that Kid's shoots In the fourth, Crooks, who was in grand fighting fig throughout' the contest, walked to the plate, smashed the ball over the fence for & homer, and came in and sat down as if @ four-sacker was the commonest thing in #n the world to him. Everybody threw a large, succulent yell at but na coiu of the realm was seén fly- Lngl. rough the air. he score was too pighandled for that. ‘The next three men went out at first, the two first on throws by Hanrahan and the 1ast on a throw by Hengle. 1t was another goose egg for Sammy Mor- ton's men, and the ladies said, “Isn’t it just splendid Can't say which It they meant, but it was probab) ‘g; Doescher, the umpire. The White Sox scored *wo more ruza in the fifth, and the people Ligan 10 yawn. This wes too much of a good thing. After Hanraban, who it will be observed %\l) ed quite a redbeaded game, had thrown ‘auavan out at first, Nick got'nis base on s, and Cooney's single let him round to third, Jimmy himself reaching second on the throw in. Then Cleveland went out on a liner to the uhh]\'llouv Huurahan, out Jakey Strauss slashed out his third hit, and the Obiltiren on his bases came home. ‘““Hey! hey! hey!” shouted the boys and rls in the grand stand. [Jakey, however, was left, for Jack Crooks it o little fungo to the pitcher and expired At first, Again it was a blank for Minneapolis. In the next inning Omaha made ber cley- enth und last score. ‘Walsh lined out nice one, stole second, snd after Androws and Messitt bud retired, ‘amblod across the rubber on Canavan's single. ichols’ out ended the agony. And agaiu it was a hard boiled egg for Minneapolis. Six innings and not a hit from the brawny sons of the north, Oune thousaud pair of oo eu gazed admirivgly on the smiliug Kid in "Tho last two_innings were unproductive r the White Sox, but the Minuies mude u ttle lonely tally fu each. Foster, the swift, opered the seventh with # soratch hit inside’ the diamond, but was retired on Hengle's bit to Walsh, who threw 10 socond and caught him, and it looked like another egg. But Hengle fooled us. He started o steal second, sud Cooney, in en deavoring to throw him out, elevated the ball out among the daisies and cowslips of venter fleld, and Edward gaived third. He ran home on Minnehan's sacrifice, and tho row of eggs was spoilod. Hanrahan wafted. 1n the final bout, Jovne reached second on adrive against the right fleld fence, and Scored on Mitohell’s ingle. The next threo men retired gracefully, and the day was won, for right here Mr. Doescher oalled the gamo, os the Minneapolis boys were very tired and wanted to g0 to tho hotel and wash their faces before starting for Denver. Ta-ta, boys, wo'll see you next summer. The score: OMATIA. R In s 8w Cooney, ©.... .. Clevelana, 8b, Strauss, rf Crooks, 2b Walsh, ss, Messitt, of Canavan, 1.

RRequisition papers are in the hands of Marshal Frey. Jake will be taken to Mississippi t0-morrow. Kilrain was not put under lock and key, but was allowed to rest himself iu the cap- tain’s private room. He was not at all upset by his arrest, but took matters coolly, as he enjoyed meals ordered from A restaurant. Kiirain is looking well, and his general ap- pearance is thut of a_man in perfect health. He regretted that he could not outline his futuré course, owing to the uncertainty as to what woula be done with him by Governor Lowry. He said: *I had intended all along to give myself up and was only waiting to see what they would do with Sullivan. T thought it was better to do that to keep dodging around the country trying to evade arrest. They would have hounded me anyhow until they captured me, and I did not care to leave the country, Unfortunately, hewever, I came home a few days too soon. Had I waited a little longer I would have known ‘what was done to Sullivan, and then would have known what to expect.” Punrvis, Miss., August 14.—The indictment of Sullivan gives six names of the grand jurymon sa witneases. They were at the ght. At b o'clock the grand jury handed in eight mdictments. Bills were found against Frank Stevenson, who managed Kiirain’s interosts; W. K. Harding, who represented Richara K.

Everybody, From the Prime Minister Down to the Rumblest Citizen, Seemed to Be Piotting in His Behalf. ‘Was Ever Embezzler So Loved? w York, August 14.—Sergeant Philip Reilly’s report of his unsucoessful trip back from Chili to this city with William H. Bushnell, the thief and forger, to got pos- session of whom he fought the Chilian authorities nine mouths, was submitted to the police board to-day. The surrender, he says, was unwillingly and grudgingly made by the Chilian authoritios, 8o much so that, apprehensive of trouble, he called upon the American legation to demand of the Chilian minister some official document stating that the vrisoner was surrendered to him by process of law. But the minister refused to give such a paper as requested. Bushuell was given into his hands on July 18 without a scrap of writing to show any authority for holding him. This was tho entering wedge of the treachery. A receipt for the surrender was demanded by Reilly, but nothing was given to him. They were on board the steamer Imperial, one of tho largest South American coasters. A great number of Bushnell's friends were on board. They seemed to be overywhers and made no concealment of openly advising Bushnell to escape. Reilly did not like the looks of things and went to the captain of the steamer with a request for protoction and assistance in holding his prisoner. The captain said flatly that he would not have Bushnell con- sidered as a prisoner or treated ns one for a moment. The captain also informed the prisoner that while on board his ship he could go where and do whatever he pleased. Every officer on the ship was a friend of the prisoner too, and &lso at least one passenger, one Rickelman, who was apparently there for the express purpose of alding Bush- nell to escape. At every point where the steamor stopped this man received tole- graphic dispatches and conferred aside with the prisoner. At every port, to0, Bushnell’s friends came aboard in droves. They seemed to fairly overrun the country and were loud in their demands that he should go with them and let the American detective go home alone. At Tailtal, the last stopping place be- fore Iquque, the governor of the province came aboard with others and extended the hos- pitality of the province tothe thief. Bushnell, however, refused to accept the offer. At Iququo bay, frienas of Bushnell came on board at once. By the next morning there were more than a hundred of them on board the vessel. Reilly obtained from Mr. Trum- bull, the American consul there, 8 man to help him look after the prisoner. Both of them kept a sharp eye on the movements of Bushnell. The prisoner remained apparently inflexible in his determination to come to New York, and' his friends were gettin ready toleave. The steamer had weighe anchor and was about to proceed when Bush- nell went to the closet in the stern of the vessel on the middle deck. Two minutes later when sought he was missing. A thorough search was made of the steamer, but he could not be found. There was nothing left for the detective but to vroceed to the next port. From one of the deckhands the detective learned that during the voyage Bushnell had been seen sliding down the stern of the steamer on a rope conveniently tied to the flagstaff by one of the ship's ofticers, Under the overhanging sterh was a four-oared boat waiting for him, into which he sprang and was rowed ashore, while the steamer pro- ceeded on her way, At the next port Reilly had to wait four days for the next steamer back. He went on’ to Lima and saw the au- thorities there, but all hope of capturing the prisoner under the circumstances was in and he turned back home empty ays there was from the first a reg- piracy to rescue the prisoner, and that the captain and officers of the -mmer were in the conspiracy. After thux ner’s escape the passenyor Rickleman demanded the prisoner's baegage. Reilly refused to surrender it, but on the following day it was surrendered by order of the captain. Bushnell is now supposed to be in Bolivia, with which country the United States has no treaty. —— TOP HEAVY.

[Copuright 1859 by James Gordon Bennett. | BRrADFORD, August 14.—[New York Herald Cable—Special to Tur Bgs.|—President Arthur appointed W. F. Grinnell consul at Bradford. President Cleveland reappointed him, Now President Harrison has appointed Major Tibbits, of Connecticut, to Grinnoll's place and appointed Griunell consul at Man- chester, an easier berth, for the Manchester export trade lacks the vitality of Bradford’s. The Union club of Bradford gave Grin- nell & dinner two nights ago, and at the din- ner he made a speech which contains matter of special interest to the woolen and worsted trade of the United States, and at the same time contains nothing that need discourage tariff reformers. Grinnell said: ‘‘The growth and importance of this district, as shown in exports to the United States dur- ing the last seven yoars, are significant. In 1883 the total exports to the United States in value just reached £1,000,000, while last year they wore over £4,000,000. In May, 1882, the time of the commencement of my service here as consul, the exports were £121,000, The three larg- est items were: Stuffs, £05,000 sterling; worsted coatings, £5,350, and worsted yarns, £9,100, whereas in July just passed, my last month of service here, exports wero £447,000 sterling and the throe largest items were: Stuffs, £1,852,000; worsted coatings, £115,000; silk zoods, £41,000. The total exports to the United States for the last seven years are: 1882, £1,677,000; 1883, £2,212,000; 1884, £2,675,000; 1885, £2,783,000; 18S6, £3,673,000; 18587, £3,309,000; 1889, £4,183,000, and for 1859 in the proportion of the seven expired months the year's exports will reach nearly £5,000,000 storling. “The post of United States consul av Bradford is no sinecure. What renders the office of peculiar difficulty—T might almost say hardship-—is the fact that the far greater proportion of merchandise passing through 18 subject to an intricate and distracting aystem of compound duties specific and advalorem, and these both at changing and varying rates with an advance or recession of the market price. No United States consulate in the world is so burdened with tbese classes of goods. The four heaviest are London, with £600,000 sterling; Leeds and Huddersfield, with £600,000; Paris, with £1,300,000, and Bradford, with 24,000,000 sterling. et TORIES TAKE A TUMBLE. The Government Accepts the Liberal Tithe Bill. LoxpoN, August 14.—Attorney General Webster announced in the house of commons this evening that the government had de- cided to amend the tithes bill, by accepting the opposition’s proposal to make the land- lords, instead of tha occupiers, liable for the payment of the tithes. The announcement was greeted with cheers bty the liberals. Sir William Vernon Harcourt expressed his gratification. This announcement, ho said, proved that the paticnce and exertions of the opposition had not been in vain. he gov- ernment's decision was equivalent to the introduction of a new bill (cheers). The principal for which the liberals had fought had been recognized. e WRITHING IN AGONY, Two Brown-Sequard Investigators Taken Very Sick, BimMINGuAN, Als, August 14—On Mon- day night D, L.

Arcmisox, Kan,, August 14.—[Spocial Tel- egram to Tnr Bee. [—Thoe rate convention of Missouri river cities held here to-day was in session less than three hours. Fifty or sixty delegates were in attendance, representing Kansas City, Wyandotte, Atchison, St. Joe, Omaha and Sloux City, H. N, Jewett repre- sented Omaha, although he said he bore no credentials. Letters were read from Omaha exprossing sympathy with the movement. The delegates were welcomed. by ex-Mayor 8. 8. Kelsey, who formall y called the meet- ing to order, William H. Hall, of Kansas City, was made chairman of tho organization, and H. R. Bostwick, of Atchison, secretary. S. R. Washer, of Atchison, stated the local eriovances aguinst the railroads. Others followed, and finally C. . Finley, of Kansas City, brought the mesting to 4 head by intro- ducing the following resolution: ‘Resolved, That a committee of twelve, who shall constitute a committee of ways and means, be appointed to provide for the establishmont of & froight bureau and the employment of an experienced railroad man as freight commissioner.” "This resolution did not strike the couven- tion just right and it was referred to a com- mittee of five, consisting of Miller, of Kansas City; Coy, of Wyandotte: Washer, of Atoh- son; Walker, of St. Joseph, and Jowett, of Omaha. The committes retired and upon roturning reported & series of resolutions sotting forth the discriminations against Missouri river points, declaring that such points are entitled to equal rates with Mis- sissippi river points and demanding that the through rates be . made equal 1o the sum of the locals. The committeo also recommended that the commercial bod- ies represented in the oconvention bo re- quested to appoint two persons who together shall act as an executive committee and that such committee consider the practicability of organizing a freight bureau and the appoint- ment of a commissioner. The Kansas City packers and smelters were timid about the use of the word ‘‘de- mand,” they having just had their rates fixed up satisfactorily, and after some discussion the word “‘request!’ was substituted. Jowett, of Omaha, opposed the chanee, and said tho men who bad no grievance had no business in the convention, He was especially vicious toward the Kansas City smelters and pack- ers, Ho had the sympathy of the conven- tion, but 1t was voted to use diplomacy be- fore war was declared. Jewett wanted the smelters and packers and others without grievances barred off the executive commit- tee, but the convention voted that it had no coutrol over these appointments, In the dis- cussion Finley instituted a comparison be- tween Kausas City and Omaha, and Jewett retorted that the Omaha smelting works were tue largest in_the world, and he de, clared that his lamber firm paid fivo times the freight paid by Finley’s smelting com- pany The convention adjourned at 5 p. m.

Milling in transit rates will be continued, ex- copt that the privilege of shelling corn i transit was abriaged. That the Grand Trunk 18 growing restive under the operation of tho present rates is becoming more and more evident. In the recent flurry 1n grain rates, caused by the reduction to 20 cents by the Baltimore & Ohio on corn, and the subsequent reduction of the Pennsylvaia to 20 conts on all classes of grain and their products, the final settle- ment was that all roads should make a 20- cent rate on corn and & 25-cent rate ou all other grain. Theso rates were adoplod by all tho roads except the Grand Trunk, which resumed the old rate of 35 cents on all classos of erain. Traflc’ Munager Iteova aaid to- “Wo are not in favor of discriminatiog 1n favor of corn. The grain_rate always has and should b tho same.

Indigestion S not only a distressing complaint, of itself, but, by causing the blood to become depraved and the system en- feebled, is the parent of innumerable maladies. That Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is the best cure for Indigestion, even when complicated with Liver Complain, is proved by the following testimony from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockway Centre, Mich “Liver complaint and _indigestion made my life a burdcen and came near ending my existence. For more than four years 1 suffered untold agony, was reduced almost to askeloton, and hardly had strength to drag myself about. Afl kinds of food distressed me, and only the most delicate could be digested at all. Within the time mentioned several hysicians treated me without giving re- ief. Nothing that I took seemed to do any permanent good until I commenced the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which has produced ‘wonderful results. Soon after commencing to take the Sarsapa- rilla I could see an improvement in my condition. My appatite began to retnrn and with 1t came. the ability to digest all the food taken, my strength im= proved cach day, and after a fow months of faithful attention to your directions, I found myself a ‘well woman, able to attend 16 all household duties. icine hus given me @ new lease of life,” Ryer's Sarsaparilla, PREPARED BY Dr. J.
