March 7.—The pro- ceedings of the Philudelphia ball club agamst Shortstop Hatlman to restrain him f-om playing with other than the Philadel- phia club came up today before Judges Arnold and Thayer. Counsel for both sides argued the matter and the court held the matter under advisement. In the course of the argument Judge Thayer, who had been reading a oopy of the National league con- tract, interrupted with the remark: I seo Dy tho contract that a club ean discharge a plaver within ten _days, but a player 18 com- pelicd to_play with the club as long as it may see fit.”” The Brotherhood in St. Louis. ST, Lovis, Mo, March 7.—|Special Tele- graw to T Bre [—The first real move to- ward placing a brotherhood club in St. Louis was made today, when Al Spinik, editor of tite Sporting News, closed a five-year lease for Amateur park. He admits that he 1s at work in the interest of the brotherhood. He says that Mr. George Munson, who is look- fng after St. Louis brotherhood interests in Chicago, has already closed a contract by which the Chicago brothertiood club_is to iy here from March 30 to April 17. During ts stay here it will play games with visiting brotherhood clubs. Amateur park is a fine plotof ground in the southwestern part of the city aud is reachied by cable and ejectric railways. Ten thousand dollars is o be ex- petided in caulpping it for busobll purposos. t is believea that the move is simply pro- Jimmnary to the placing of a brotherhood club in St. Louis permanently.

You can quote Al Johnson 18 saying that " “Parson” Tells All About it ELAND, O., March 7.—[Special Tele- gram to Tug Bee.|—Poter Jackson, the col- ored pugilist, arrived here Friday morning, sccompanied by Jack Ashton, Sam Fitzpat- rick and “Parson” Davies. Juckson denied the truth of tie report that he came near ‘Dbeing knocked out by Gus Lambert at Troy, . Y., the other night. *Do you know who Lambert ist” “Parson” Davies, who acts Jackson's spokesman, asked. *'Why, he's @ professional wrestlor and weighs 240 pounds. He had trained two weeks because I had offered $100 to apy man in Troy who would stand up before Jackson four rounds, Lambert wanted the money and he got it. He did not stand up, but ho wasn't knocked out. In the first place he would not agree to anybody but a Troy saloonkeeper for referee, aud after we let him have his own way i that he wanted eight ounce loves, What could you expect anybody to lo with pillows on bis bands! Why, you might stuud before Juckson or any one else for twelve rounds with such gloves, T ‘would be no possivility of knocking a out that way. When time was g bert rushed right in and abbed Peter around the waist and tried to throw him. Jackson didu't go in for a rough and tumble acrap. He oboyed the rules and callea for o foul. But Lambert's friend, the referee, rofused to allow it, and the same tactics were ropeated over and over again. In fact, all that Lawmbert did was to run around the stage trying to keep away from Juckson, and when he failed in that he would duck his head, rush in, and catch Petor around the waist.

D., was read in the leg- islaturo yesterday, The letter states that the lottery people are paying from $200 to #500 down to members to support their bill, with tha understanding that the amount would be doubled when the measure wae passed. Tt says that the aitorney general's rival 1s holding out for §10,000. As a plan to fight the lottery scheme it was proposed to let 1t ripen and permit the members who fa- vored 1t to go on record, and then, by rousing public opinion, to defeat its prssage over the governor's veto. It is said an attempt will be made to impeach Goodwin. Goodwin’s letter 18 still the talk of the capital city and the feeling in the matter was aggravated by the sensational oytcome of the publication of the tatter. Today while Goodwin was talking with another gentle~ mau in a corridor of the capitol Representn- tive Walsh approached aud asked by what authority his nume had been used in the let- ter. After a few words had passed between the two Walsh suddenly seized Goodwin by the nose. The latter freeing himself, turned and walked away. Goodwin weighs 125 pounds, while Walsh is more than twice us large. The attorney general was urged by friends to take legal action against Walsh, but so far he has refused. e R If you want all the news read the Sunday Lee. 2l 2 Tt Thr Wool Market.

SIX KILLED AND TGN INJURED Terrible Wreck of an Express on tho Lake Shore. A LOADED COACH TELESCOPED Two Puilm ns Crash Through a Car Fillod with Paseengers—Com- plete List of the Dead and Wounded. The Train Broke in Two. Burraro, N. Y., March 7.—A train on the Lako Shore from the west due at Buffulo at 10:80 p. m. broke in two uear Hamburg last night, The front partof the train, con- sisting of an engine, tender, smoker and two day conches was quickly brought to a stand- still. The rear half, composed of five heavy Pulimans, came on the down grade and crashed . into the second day coach. The Pullmans being heavier lifted the day coach into the air and they now lie ou top of the others, both having telescoped the first day coach. Both the day coaches and the Pullmans were full of passengers. Six persons were killed and ten injured, one of them fatally. The following is the list: J. SWAN, colored porter, killed. JOHN W. FLYNN, Cauton, O,, killed. JOHN POWERS, Pittsfiald, Mass,, killea. MR. and MR ter, N. Y., killed. MRS. JOSEPH D. BALUCUS Springs, N. Y., killed. H. J. Anen, Rochester. badly burnt. Cuanres J. Ricg, Newton Falls, Mass, L. H. Fisnen, Boston, leg sprained and chin badly cut. Rev. Troyas A. HaLy, Buffalo, leg badly cut. F. A. Coowns, New York, bead and chin cut, both legs sprained. Junia Hareok, Boston, cut in breast,over left eye and head. Groree B. ALLex, Buffalo,ankle sprained. Josern D. Barxes and wife, Boston, the man not much hurt, the woman fatally. This morning the bodies of the killea were brought into the Central depot, where the coroner took charge of them and conveyed four of them to the morgue. That of Mrs. Balucus wus sent to her home. A special train will take the jury to the wreck. A passenger says the coupling was defec~ tive. It broke precisely in the same place as the train was leaving Clevelaud, At 12:30 o'cloci a relief train was made up and ten of the most seriously injured were brought to the Fitch institute at Buffalo. The forward portion of the train was stopped by Conduc- tor Houghtaling, who pulled the bell rope. Most of those in the last day coach were warned of their peril in time to leave- the car, but those in the first Pullman car had no warning and were in the car when it tele- scoped one coach aud was buried under an- other. J. E. Minnie, who had his arm cut off, was placed on the engine, which started at once for Buffalo to bring relief. It was two hours and a half before the physicians arrived, but a wrecking train came sooner and began the work of extricating the victims. The bodies taken out were placed in a bagguge car. ‘There were many sad incidents connected with the wreck. One of the saddest was the killing of Mrs. Joseph Baucus of Saratoga. Sheand her husband were on their wedding trip, having been married about a week. ‘The husband was terribly injured, but his physical sufferine was nothing compared with his mental agony. He acted ina dis- tracted macner, calling upon the- doctors to save her, und raving over her broken and bruised body. Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Stewart of Rochester were killed instantly, while their eighteen- months-old girl 1 118 motlier’s srms did not receive a scratch. Superintendent Couch of the Lake Shore road discovered the break and went into three different cars pulling the automatic brake cords to stop the - rear sec- tion, but they would not work. They are generally reliable. When asked why the engineer with the front part of the train did not run away from the rear section. He said the breaks occurred on the down grade and that gave increased speed to the rear section. ‘I'he engimeer claims that the brakes on his part of the train became set and he could not get away from the rear part in time. He did not discover the brealk when it ocourred, his attention being necessarily directed abead most of the time, Mr. Haupt, a well known lawyerof this city, who was in the firat section, in an in- terview tonight said: “The truth is the train w 8 not in fit condition to carry human beings from the time it left Cleveiand. A coupling broke before we left that ciuy, but afterwards the conductor assured me that all was right. At Dunkirk the train parted twice, The steam couplings were broken and the air brakes failed to act. A traveling companion and I discussed the situation and apout made up our miads to get off there and wait for another train, but finally took the chances,” Mr. Haupt says the wreck oc- curred at 8:55, only seven wmiles from Buf- falo, yet it wus two hours and a half before the relief train arrived on the scene. A Fearful Exploion. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 7.—A special from Evansviille si An explosion oc- curred at noon in the shaving or dust room of the Armstrong furniture factory and res aulted in a fire, which completed the wreck, Three boys, Fred Sachs, Willie Cheatham and George Crawford, in the room eating dinner, were burned to death.

G. Dun & Co.'s weekly roview of trade s The state of trade has not materially al- tered during the past week, though the change of weather has produced much tem- porary improvement in some things and in others trade 1s rather less satisfactory than a week ago. The monetary situation is much more sat isfactory, notwithstanding the fact that the cash actually held by the treasury is $3,200,000 more than last week. Rates on call here have declined from 5 to 814 per cent and foreign exchango has risen from $4.85%¢ to 4.86)¢. The interior monvy markets are gencrally steady, but on the whole rather more easy. At Bostou there Is still and is expected to be, some presaure until April, but the feol- ing is better and commercial paper com- mands about 6 per cent, At Philadelphia the situation is substan- tially the same, but there appears to be more stringency Money is unohanged at Chicago, fairly ac- tiveat6to7, at St. Lows and Pittsburg rather abundant, though the demand is large at Cleveland, easy at St. Paul and Omabp, n good demand at Detroit at 7, and steady ut that rate at Milwaukee, the demand at Kansas City being only moderate. The decrease in the actval circulation out- side the treasury 1o the mounth of February was $10,276,003, und this, with the further absorption this wonth by the treasury, indi- cates a less active commercial demand. he aspect of forelgn trade does not change, 08 exports at New York still exceed OMAHA DAIL those of last year a little, while the iports have not of late shown an fneroase. ‘The volume of dotostic trade appears well sustained, with a general encouragement noted at Boston: and St. satis uctory distribution in il seasonable lines at St. Louis, a good jobbing trade at Omaha and building operations - more than double those of last year, thoudh storms checked the res tail trade; quiet at Milwaukee and Kansas City, and at Chicago an improvemont over laat year in grain and meats, with the dry gouds trade about equal to last year's, and the clothing trade only fair in volume. Boston also notes an improvement in clothing on western orders, liberal sales ot cottous and a fair demand for leather, with an_improvemwat in boots and shoes and a kood trade iv lumber, The woollen munuhcmra does not appear to have changed much 1 condition or pros- pects. though better sales of heavy weizhts are noted at Hoston, while lighter goods are guiet. Sales of wool thero are larger, being 2,585,600, for the week with prices’ unchanged, and its bottom has been touched. Prices are depressed at Phila- delphia, and the early expectations of new and large supplies lead holders to make concessions. In the iron trade also the situation has not materially improved and at Pittsburg prices are again lower, The window glass trade is active and a fourth advanco in prices within three months has been ordered, but the flint glass works at Pittsburyg are curtailing production. The coal trade is not better and entirely in buyers’ favor, while copper and tin have been rather weaker and lead in scanty sups piy and stronger. Lattle can be said of the markot for bread stuffs for, notwithstanding a spasm of activ< ity one day in wheat, raising the sales here for the week to £0,000,000 bushels the price is but X cent lower than a week ago. Corn is unchanged but oats lly cents higher, ‘The general course of prices for commodi- ties has been upward and the averawe ad- vance for the wnak has been nearly half of 1 per cent, but the range is 8o low that a fur- ther movement in the same direction before the comine of spring would not bo surpris- ing. ‘I'he stock market has not changed dur- g the past week in any material respect, the average of pricds being substautially the same, though there was a stronger tone on Friday. ‘The removal of fears concerning the posaible exports of gold, the rapid rise of foreign exchange, the indi- cutions that purchases on foreign account now exceed sales of securitivs, all tend to make the absorption of money be the treasury less observed. It may be added that the decrease in activity of trade throughout the country tends to release larger amounts than have been expected to return to this center at present, But with bank reserves remarka- bly narrow for the season, speculation for an advance in stocks is checked by the fear of an artificial stringency in money The business failures during the last seven days are 260 as againsta total of 301 last week. For the corresponding week of last year the failures wore 291. il e al ) What is more attractive than a pretty face with a fresh, bright complection? For 1t use Pozzoni’s Powder.

The statement points out whereby Omaha by a little effort just at the presont time muy assure herself posis tively of a vast and increasing commercial gain during all the years that Omaha shall be a city. It is specially and most vitally 1mportant to the business men of Omaha. The statement as made by a leading mem- ber of the delegation is this: * *“Thers are 5,000 quarter sections of land in the Sioux reservation, in Nebraska, which has just been opened to settlement. These 5,000 quarter sections each rop- resent a farm of 160 acres, and as this Iand 18 between the Missouri and Niobrara rivers, and is cut 1n two by the Ponca river, it must necessarily be good farming land. This 18 all tributary to Niobrara. ‘The sottlers will flow into this magnificent tract in the spring and Niobrara is the point at which they must purchase their lumber und other suppiies. ‘The splendid iron bridge across the Niobrara, at Niobrara, is the only ons between the Missouri river and Valentine. What is needed in order for Omaha to get the big trade of the Niobrara country that.is already established, and the vast business just at hand and which will come as sure as the opening of spring, is to met eleven miles of railroad built from Verdigris to Niobrara. That will give @& flno ' railroad con- nection between Omaha and Niobrara by the Norfolik branch of the Fremont, Bik- horn & Missouri Valley road. *'As it is now, the merchants of Niobr: purchase their goods in Sioux City and C| cago, ship them to Scotland, S. D., transfer- ring them there by ferry to Niobrara at an expense of $7to §12 per load. The right of a way for this oleven miles of rail- road is all graded, 80 that all that is now necessary is to do perhaps a little repairing of the grade. “What wo want of the busiuess men of Omaha 18 for them to lend their united and solid influence to emphasize the request next ‘luesday wo shall make in person of the president of the Kremont, Elkhorn & Mis- souri Valley raiiroad to build the eleven miles reterred to. ‘*This little extension would give Omaha not only direct communication with Nio- brara and the new country just opened in the Sioux reservation but would also furnisu her with connection at Niovrara with the Milwaukee line to the Jim river valley. The one reason which the Fremont & Elk- horn officials have given for not building up this little strip of road has been the feeling manifested in the state Some time ago against any more rail- road building. The busiaess which would come to Omaha were this eleven s of road built would, during the first year thereafter, greatly ex- ceed $100,000, and would continue to increase overy year following. In the matter of shipment of hogs alone Omaha would gain absolutely the entire product of the Niobrara count which any man who 184 posted at all tell you isa vast item m itself. And allother farm products would just as certainly follow. To the great volumes of business which would cowme from the Niobrara aud reservation countries would be added that of South Da. kota, which in itsell would ro- pay, many times over, the little effort we are here asking the business men of Omaha to make in our behalf—uot more in our behalf, however, than in thewr own—just at the present time. A failure to act now means the diverting of all the great trade permanently to Sioux City and Chicago, for other railroads are already contamplating routes in the country mentioned."” 'he dolegation returns home today, and wili be here again ou next Tuesday, en Toute to Chicago to call on President Hughitt. } Father Huntington The roal eatato exchange and the board of trade propose holding w great mnss meeting Tussday eveniug in the interest of securing a hearty endorsoment of tho wishes of tho Niobrara dolegation. - AMUSEM The Bostonians never gave a more de. lightful performance in Omana than that of last night at Hoyd's. They presented their newest and, in some r brightest opera, “‘Suzette,”” with Marie Stone in the title role, which she sustained most admira bly. At no previous tune had the fact b cloarly demonstrated here that this lad, an actreas of suberior merit as well as a vo- calist, but that fact was forcibly impressed upon the minds of those who were fortunate enough to witness hor offorts last night. The part is an excellent one, offors ample scops for stage work, and Mias Stone handled it in & wanner that pleased the large audience very much, Hor treatment of the character was not only highly appreciated from an acting standpoint, but was greatly oenjoyed and frequently applauded. In hee little by- plays and general artistic business she was captivating, charming and clever. It is also gratifying to note that Miss Stone's splendid voice retains its strength, purity and sweotness. I'he opera is oot 80 strong, musically, as daramatically, though some of the concorted numbers are tuneful, lively and protty. A duet and quartette in the “first act wore on- cored, but bevond these the music aronsea very little enthusiasm. Interest was nearly all centerod on the acting excent when Jessie Bartlett Davis sang, and_her splenaid . a5 it always does, elicited the warmest e pressions of approval. As the Marchioness she was very fascinating and entertaining. W. H. Macdonald as the Marquis, Frothiogham in the comedy roie of Cap- tain Vienbrech, and Edwin W. Hoff, the tenor, as Renee, played and sang their re- spective parts well, 50 thut all in all tho po foramnce wasone of the best and most thor- oughly pleasing seen in this city for a lon time.” As a wholo 1t surpassed Thursday night's represontation, notwith standing every one vresent then considered that almost the acme of excellence. The chorus, costumes and orchestra are notably stroug foatures of this suporb organization. Orville M.
