Eight Men Given Bases on Balls— Cleveland Badly Rattled —Latest Baseball News — The Speed Ring. Denver . [ 3 Bloux Oity [ 3 M 6 4 [ 5 5 5 3 5 4 7 3 7 Sioux City 9, Omaha 5. Yesterday's game was very Blogg. Omaha started out with three runs and ended up with five, while Sioux City started out with no runs and ended up with nine. And that sizes up the work of the two teams, Fanning did the twirling for the home team, and while he was not batted hard, he was wilder than a Texas steer. Why, just think of it! He gave eight men bases on balls and made no less than four wild pitches, It was awfull Willis, the first man up, retired on a grounder to Powell. Canavan laced out a two-sacker and Kearns orre for three, and an earned run came home. Then Andrews hit safe, and Kearns came in with another earned tally. Andrews actually stole sec- ond, went to third on Cleveland’s seratch hit and home on a wild pitch. Cleveland also stole second and reached third on a passed ball. But no further scoring was done, for Walsh flew out to Glenn and Moran struck out. Thag was an auspicious start, and a_ mis- gul led craik in the grand stand stood up on is hind legs and yelled, “We've got & pic- nie!” In the second the atmosphere began to assume a cerulean hue. Brosnan made a hit and a passed ball sent him to second, Hanrahan, who had taken on a fresh load of ginger, was given firston balls and the next moment Cleveland made a hay- eating error and both runners scored. Genins fanned and Crossley hit her for two sacks but proceeded no farther, as Fanning’s curves also extinguished Mr. Dévlin, In the third they bagged another brace, and the atmosphere began to sizz Monk Cline went to first on balls, but was forced out_at second on Glenn's hit to the ylwhm. Cleveland’s second blunder gave Kappell alift and sent Glenn to third, and both men ran home on Powell's sacrifice. Brosnan then knocked out a two bagger, but Hanrahan’s out retired the side. In the fifth the Sioux Ci acted up just awfully, the nasty things, and_the Omahas went to pieces like a pumplin hit with an ax. Genins and Crossley made hits and Moran, who played right in a pair of eighty- gloves, made a murderous muff of De easy fly, which let Genins in and Crossley to second. The chimpanzee again got his base on four wide ones, Glenn made a hit, and a wild pitch and another base on balls let in three move, and the crowd said—Oh, well, there is no use repeating here what the crowd said, but they said it all the sam In' their half of this same inning Omaha had scored her other two and last runs, The red on Hanrahan's muff, Kearns co-bagger and Wally’s third safe hit. he remainder of the game was n proces- sion of goose eggs.

Albert Inks, Omaha’s new left-handed Llilcht‘r. arrived yesterday and will go in the 0x at Sioux City tomorrow. The Omahas leave for oux City this morning. The Corn Huskers went up last night. Denver will be here for three games next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday George Proesser is playing in the field for Houston in the Texas league. When a pitcher isn’t twirling in that league he is earning his salary in some other position. Elmer Foster and Harry O'Day, two of Sam Morton’s Minnivs, got on a load of as- sorted canned fruits and landed in the Mil- waukee police court last week. The fines Jthey got there weren't circumstances to the plasters they received from Sir Samuel. The Pittsburg Dispatch “Horeis the way false statements get circuluted. Some local enthusiastic newspaper correspondent informed a certain Phitadelphia paper that 2,600 people attended the P. I.. game at . position parl Wednesday. The turnstile count was 474, Truth will do the club more good than lies,” Great' Scott! The idea of kicking about alittle matter of swelling a erowd by a mere 2,126, What folly! Ananais, to use a modern phrase, would not be “in it" with that dirty beloved brotherhood boomer. Baseball has broken into many an editorial | column this year to which it had never b fore gained entrance. The New York T une, after the opening of the season, said “This unconquerable antagonism is no phan- tom, but there was a spectre in attendance yesterday. It flitted between the polo grounds and the brotherhord park. Grand stand and bleaching boards saw it and trem- bled. It was the ghost of baseball, dead and gone, come back for the benevolent and sol- emn purpose of exhibiting itself as an awful warning to its successor, It carried a yellow and musty volume, in which the story of its vise and fall was recorded, and all the ‘wounds of whi t died in the house of its friends were shown—truly a melancholy tale | of treachery and deceit. We hope the warn- ing has come in time to save the baseball of today, which has reached the dangerous pinnacle, and seems to some fond and patient eyes to be already tottering. 1f the cxisting rivalry and antagonism go much further they may end in practices which every decent man despises, and bring o at and costly idol tumbling to the ground.” A close game of baseball was played on the Creighton college grounds last evening be- tween the Collegians and the High school | Sluggers. which resnlted in_a victory for the former by a score of 16 to The “features of the gaime were the pitching by Suyder for the colloge nine in the last_three innings and the brilliant field work of Butler for the high school boys. The Omaha management are hustling for new talent, and the public can rest assured | that the weal pots n the present team will be strengthened. The Winchester Club.

ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 30.—The fight with small gloves tonight between Billy Meyers of Streator, 111, and Juck Hopper of New York, was a rather tame one. The contest was for ten rounds, the winner to take 73 per cent, Both men fought cautiously and each received Some pretty good body blows. In the sixth round Meyers floored Hopper with a power- ful blow under the chin. The New Yorker failed to come to time and the fight was awarded to the Illinois cyclone. St BUSINESS TROUBLES. The Bank of America, Philadelphia, Suspends Payment. Puitaverenia, April 30.—The Bank of America has suspended payment. “The news of the suspension did not occasion much surprise, as it was known in certain quarters that there had been a heavy drain on the institution all - day. The branch offi- ces in different parts of the city were shut up simultancously with the closing of the main house. There are twely e branches s red over the outlying districts and the deposits are said to amount to $700,000. The bank is closely allied to the Insurance Com- pany of America and other financial institu- tious in this city, and today's suspension, which is said to be ‘only temporary, was due to rumors set_afloat affecting the credit of President McFarland of the insurance com- pany. A Grocery Fails. Lawrexce, Mass., April 30,—The grocery house of Davis Murphy & Co., the largest in the city, has assigned. It is expected the creditors will be paid in full. — THE CHARGES ARE G ROUNDLESS Alleged Cruelties at the Leavenworth Soldiers' Home Disproven. Leavesworts, Kan., April 30.—[Special to Tk Bre.]—It now transpives. that the cause of all the ridiculous charges made against Governor Smith of the soldiers’ home is one Batson, the same person who made the un- founded charge against the guthorities some weeks ago. At that time he charged that the governor and the postmaster at the home bud “tampered with mail directed to him (Batson). A full investigation was made, which resulted in a recommenation for Bat® sow’s discharge from the home, which was done. There is absolutely nothing in the charges. The “sweat-box,” 8o glibly spoken of, is only an ordinary’ close cell whero drunken veterans are put to soberup. In the event of incorrigible refractoriness a straight-jacket is put on them, but it is ap- pavent that in a matter of 2,000 persons one close cell and one_ straight jacket cannot be used very indiscrimi and this is what is charged. GOV. HOVEY VERY FEEBLE. He is Hardly Able to Walk and May Not Live Out His Term. IxpIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 30.—[Special Tel- egram to T Bek.]—The friends of Gover- nor Hovey are becoming very much alarmed over his condition. One of them said today that he di® not believe the goyernor would live to see the end of his term. Some three months ago Mr. Hovey suffered o severe at- tack of the grip and this was followed by a very acute form of rheumatism. He was still suffering from the latter disease when dropsi- cal tendencies became pluinly marked and he is now in very feeble health,” He is frequent- 1y absent all day from his office, and when he comes down he'is compelled to use a carriage. Tt is with great dificulty that ho walks, oven on the smooth tiling floor of the capitol and he goes in and out of his carriage only with as- | sistance, — comn AN EDITOR A Catholic Bishop Issues a Against a Socialist Paper. BELLEVILLE, TIL, Apiil 80.—[Special Tele- grum to Tue Bre.|—A sensation that is a uni- versal topic of discussion has been precipi- tated by Bishop Jansen of Belleville, He has issued a bill of excommunication against the Avbeiter Zeitung, a socialist paper of West Belleville, and its editor, Hans | Scnwartz.

Hastings Vijtés in Favor of Sewerago Bonds By'd Large Majority—Ord Saloonkeepers Sued—Other State News. A Frexost, Neb . April 80, —[Special to Trr Ber.]—Last night occurred the regular an- nual meeting of the Fremont city council and it proved to be one of the stormiest sessions that body ever held, the adjournment not be- ing taken until after 2 o'clock this morning. The new members who took their soats were Morse and Hein, Biles in the First and Archer in the Fourth wards holding over by re-clection. The new council was organized by the election of Plambeck as president, the body standing seven democrats and one re- publican. Mayor Shervin appointed, Fred Lange chief of the fire depurtment. 'I'ho rés- ignation of Marshal Houck, which had been sent to the mayor in response to a demand for his withdrawal from the place, owing toa | had been | disgraceful scandal, which he guilty of, was presented, but was not ac- cepted, the vote being three for acceptance and four against, with one absent. The mar- shal will therefore continue to fill the position which he has disgraced. Thirteen saloon licenses were granted. The matter of tho occupation tax came up ugain for the half dozenth time and precipitated a lively row. A petition for its repeal was presented and acted upon. Mayor Shervin took the floor on this subject and read the riot act to several mem- bers of the council who had changed front on the subject and plainly told them it was because the saloons had threat- ened to boycott them if they su ported the measure. He said that the funds which would be raised by the tax were necded o carry on the city’s expenses, Ho said, too, that while the council might pass an ordinance repealing the ordinance (which takes effect today), he wanted them to under- stand that he would veto it and that it could not, be passed over his veto, as the measure had support enough in the council to prevent that. He likewise alluded to the fact that Young Men's Christian association members, rohibitionists and saloonkeepers were eagued together to dofeat a measure neces- sary for the city’s relief. Another interest- ing feature of the meeting was the passage of a resolution in response to the mayor's sug- gestion in his annual message, to cut down the expenses of the city. The salaries of po- licemen were cut down to $40 per month, the city marshal’'s fees were cut off, the street commissioner and janitor of the city hall were bounced and _the electric street light- ing abolished. The spivit of economy was rampant and it ent deepand went to an ex- treme. There was a large attendance of citi- zens and several took a hand in the dis i of the occupation tax, This will be ca to the supreme ‘court, a fund having been raised for that/putpose.

Nennaska, Ciry, Neb., April 80.—[Special Telegram to 'Tht¥ Bee.|—A telegram from Lincoln amnounces that the supreme court has decided agdinst the Otoe county commis sioners in the mandamus proceedings brought to' compel thé” commissioners to call o election to vote'${40,000 to aid in_building ti.a bridge, the coupt holding that the bridge is an_internal improvement, but the county cannot vote bonds to exceed the 10 per cent assessed valugtion, As the limit will be hed with $79,000, it is proposed to have Nebraska City votp the other $21,000, which will almost reath the limit of 10 per’ cent in the city. o Ord Shigonkecpers Sued.
