New York, May 1.—The New York City end of the world-wide labor demonstration tonight was not a great success so far as the numbers who paraded and attended the Union square meeting are coneerned. Probably not. more than two thousand persons were atthe speaker’s stand at one time, In the procession that preceded thers were about 5,000 paraders, The rain partly excused this ap- parent want of enthusiasm.

There was slugging, sharp fielding and costly errors on both sides. The interest was acute from the sixth inning, the game was tied, till the ninth, when the visitors narrowly scored the win- ning run. Then tho bunch of Omaha fans in the grand stand rent the mr with_shouts of victory Omaha started the ug in the first luning by a hit by Willis, a stolen base, and_another hit by Canavan, In the second, after two men were out, Hanrahan walked up to the home plate, and in response to the crowd’s injunction to “line her out, Reddy,” sent the ball spinning botween Kearnd and Walsh fora base, Genins re- cated the operation, and then the Omaha boys magnanimously let them score on errors, In'their half the Omahas scored three runs on hits by Walsh, Clarke and Willis and er- rors by the Corn Huskers, In the third both drew blanks. In the fourth Brosnan rapped outahit and was advanced to second by Iearns' fumble of Hanrahan’s hot grounder. Gen went to the player's bench and Brosnan scored on a hit by Burdick Again in the fifth it was goose eggs for both sides, In the sixth Brosnan, after a little preliminary patleying with the ball in the way of fouls, sent one of Dad’s twisters away out into the left garden, and when he stoppod running the coacher was holding bim on third base, He scored the next minute on a passed ball by Moran and the game was a tie, For the next two innings neither club could score, although both had men on _bases. In the ninth was where the fatal work was done. oux City went out in one, two three order. Mr. Morau, the young man who does the catching for Omabia occasionally, was first to bat, and ho playfully knocked the bull away over Glenn's head. When that gentleman had dug it out of the weeds and returned it to his sympathizing associates Mr. Moran was standing on thivd bag, Clarkd then sent the ball down the right fonl line. It was apparently a foul, but Mr. Blogg de: cided otherwise. Moran meanwhile ~had ored and the game was lost. The score TSIOUX CITY. OMAHA. Denver [ I in ro |F saceuencey ORI | oaomuZmnn? Sioux City.

A Nebraska City Saloonkecper Shot at for Refusing to Produce the Drinks—Other News About the State. Fuesost, Neb,, May 1.—[Special to Tie Bee.]—There has been something of a com- motion among the lawless cloments in Fre- mont today, and the credit for croating this disturbance is due to Jim Mallon, Dodge county's vigilant and determined sherift. For thepast several months the gamblers and lowd women have fairly swarmed in the city, the latter being protocted in their business by a regular monthly fine, according to an ordinance enacted somathing less than a yoar ago. Under this system of fining and com- parative immunity from disturbance and ar- rost, except on the first of every month, the | number of lewd women in the city has | rapidly increased and have become as con- spicuons, bold and brazen as they were on a former occasion, when a number of the best citizens of the town organized and, with Cleland at the head, raided the bagnios and gave the business a black eye. The provoca- tion which has moved Mallon to take & hand in fighting this element at the present time is the circumstanee involving City Marshal Houck in his scandal and the knowledge that owing to this scandal Houck will do nothing to regulate the evil. Houck was permitted to stay in the city jail one night in February with Gipsy Queen, a prostitute confined wre for attempt to murder and awaiting The deputy sheriff granted him this ge. Mallon removed the deputy, but Tuesday night the eity council, re- fused to accept Houck's resignation for the admitted disgraceful act and Houck and many of the lawless elements have rofiected upon Mallon and he proposes now to draw the line which, he says, should have been drawn long ago. Last night he notified several of the women that they had better keep the money they usually pay tho flrst of each month in police.court and use it 10 move out of the city. The result is that | today they have not come into court and made their usual deposit. Some have gone from the city. Mallon also notified the owners or agents of o half dozen houses which arc | rented for lewd purposes that they must re- move their objectionable tenants or take the consequences, The better element of the city are in hearty sympathy with the shorift in his good work and it is confidently ex- pected that the rosult will bo a wholesome purification of the atmosphere. A Very Unsteady Shot. Nepraska Crry, Neb., May 1.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bek.)—Patsey Clifford, a local character, this morning shot at Joe Kopf, a saloonkeeper, because he refused him more liquor, He missed his man and was arrested. Louisville Items, LorisvILLE, Neb., May 1.—[Special to Tue Bik.]—The new town board met last night. The following officers were selected for the ensuing year: J. P. Ellis, chairman; W. A. Cleghorn, clerk; W. B. Shryock, treasurer; C. W. Spence, marshal and street commis- sioner. Two druggists’ permits were issued ; also saloon licenses to Frank Fetzer and John Burns. The grading for the sidetrack to our new vitrified paving brick and_tile works was commenced yesterday. This will be a great benefit” to our place. The works have a capacity of 1,800,000 brick per month and will manufacture sewer piping, firepreofing, etc., in addition. There is no doubt that Louisville will in time manufac- ture all of that kind of material used in the state, as her beds of fire and potters’ clay are almost inexhaustable, Mr. Wade having dis- covered another bed 'of fine clay, covering several acres, through which they 'dug sixt; feet without re: ing the bottom. This ban is easily accessible to the Missouri Pacific railroad and will doubtless soon be utilized. Louisville is beginning to wake up from her lethargy and will push steadily to the front. Her new free wagon bridge will soon be built and the cash is in the bank to puy for it. Fremont's Occupation Tax.
