Watrnioo, fa., June 24.—Today was the hottest day of the season, 2= in tho shade at4 o'clock. The sun has been obsoured by clouds most of the time, Tho excessive tem- perature is due to a hot wind which has pre- vailed all day, The lcaves on tho trees aro curling up and the grass is seared in places, 1t is thought tho hot winds will not do much damage to crops, owing to the ioist condi- tion of the ground from recent rains.

WANIS WIS REAPPOINTHMENT. Working for a Second Term for Ne- braska's Military Instructor. Wasiivaros Buneav Tne Bre, 513 FOURTERNTIL STREET, WasiiNaro, D, C., June 24, Senator Paddock ealled at the war depart- mont in the interest of Licutenant Grifith, who wants a detail for anothor year as mili- tary instructor at the Nebraska state uni- versity. Socrotary Proctor is out of the city and will not return under a weok or ton days, and no action will be taken upon the various applications for the detail till he returns, al- though Assistant Secrotary Grant has the matter in charge. Tho senator talked to noral Grant about it, urging the detail of Lioutenunt Griffith for anothor year, oa the ground that he had not had a fair chance to show his abilities during tho past year, as tho university had mot till now a chancellor, and the institution had been in somewhat of a chaotic condition.

SOMETHING OF A MISTAKE MADE, Strong Contrast Between the Work of the Two Teams —Lincoln Slides Into Third Place~Other Games, Minneapolis, 14; Omaha, 7. Sioux City, 12: Denver, 10, Duluth, 6; Denver, 2. Milwaukee, 6; Kansas City, 2. “In tones of stern authority. Thw umpire proudly said, Play ball,' But just as far as one could see Our nine obeyed hilm not at all.” O WROTE Michael Angelo Lano the other day whon An- son and his colts dumped a game, and us it fits Omaha's case yesterday it comes in handy here. The Lambs were simply flagellated out of their bhoots and that is all there ¢Sy 7 is to it. And they deserved the licking, for a rockicr exhibition of the great national sport hasu't been stacked up in these parts for many moons, ‘Tho day was fine and the attendance good, but & more disgusted crowd of spectators nevor left the park And thoy had a right to be, although there were some extenuating circumstances. Papa McCauley was indisposed and 1aid off, and any ball crank can toll you what that mzans. Allon stands today as the first basemau with- out a peer in tho Western association, Mac's absence put “Old Cy” on the in- itial bag and Billy Traflley behind tho bat. Then Dad Clarke, who has grown rusty by his long enforced idleness, was put into piteh, and while his vuluerable twirling went a long way toward iusuring defeat, hoe did not loso tho game alone and single handed by along shot. 118 support was majestically bum: In preliminary practize the Lambs cavorted upon the tender groon sward just like so many three-yoar-olds at play. They labored under the idea that the Min- nies were relics of tho stone age, and that they could grab the game by the fundamental basis of the paataloons and yauk it out when- ever thev felt liko it. But thore 15 many a lip betweeu the slip and the dipper, isu’t theret While the Shannon family romped about in fiendish glee the Minnies looked on sad and subdued, but with a revengeful glare in tneir eyes that said as plain as word: “We way fool you a trip." Fourteen to sevea, that was the size of It. F'rom the very start tbe Omaho something after the fashion of Rena Frank- nn’s fomalo team, and fielded and ran bases like so many covo oysters. Nobody dreamed” that tho Lambs could lose; their work has been so grand, so reful- gent for the pastten days, and the crowd actually expected to see 'em knock out an- other victory big enough to cat hay ! But the lightning don’t most always some- times strike n the same place every day in tho week, does it! The Omaha crowd, 00, has become a trifle flossy, and it was high time Mr. Hollow Eyed Luck was taking in a reef or two. Tho bleachers ‘‘pulled” hard, but it was no go. Even Dan Houan's coaching seomed to havo lost its potency. Iiven Colonel Strief was slightly tinged with canary, too, but it was a wretchied game to umpire, and his _greatest deficioncy lay in his allowing the Harrington gang to delay the game. They are the laziest lot of players who ever douned a uniform, and the hustle they got on themselves in one or two innings yesterday was something wholly unaccountablo, In the first Manager Dau walked right up to the plate aud stood there until Mr. Juke gave him his base on balls. Donnelly sacri- ficed and Dan went to second. Thoen O'Hool- izan made a hit_and Daniol reached third. With the speed of an ice wagon Jocko broke for second, and although he was going at tho “rate of amile a month, he could have made it easily, but. he stopped to pull up his sock and Darling and Henglo killed him. A mo- ment later Manager Dan came in on a fan- tastic throw by Darling. *Ola Cy” fur- nished the third out. The Minnies, for some occult reason, ro- fused to tie the score, and in the second tho Laimbs took an egg flip. “'hen the circus opened in both rings. As a sort of bluff Darling permitted Traflioy to five him out at first. Then “Old Cy" dropped Walsh's assist, and Shugart was safe. Minnehan popped upa fly that should have been eaten alive but it wasn't. Henglo's long one was captured by the Com- modore, then Treadway wade a hit, and so did Marting Duckelet: B. H. Ward took his basc as a_present, Mctilone crowded s safo ono to center and McQuaid hammored out a wvo sacker, and thero was &u even half dozen on thé half shell. Wasn't that tough, thought “Tho second was _barron of results for both sides, and 5o was the third, In ‘tho fourth Donnelly got first on four wide ones, and then after Jocko and “Old Cy™ had been retired, the Deacon hit the bitll at the baso of the spive, and by the time Colonel Treadway had fished it out of the woeds 'way out on the Washiugton county line, both the Professorand his ecclosiasti brother were sitting ou the bench, Twitoholl’s out ended tho inning. All the Miunies could do was to add one more single tally to their string on hits by McQuaid an¢ Darling and a brace of re- cherche steals, Again Omaha got what the boy tho Minuies mado two more, which was again duplicatod in the sixth. 'In tho seventh Walsh's three-sacker and Trafley's singlo netted one, while five singlos and a~ two-big- gor rolled up three for the visitors, which were their last "Tho eighth dovelopea turoe moro for the Lambs, then they threw up their tails and went o the stable, Tho last of the Minnies this afternoon, G out and see them flayed alive.

OTHER WESTERN GAMES, Linovln's Losses Canse People to Talk of Hippodromey Laxcory, Nob., Juue 34.—(Special Telogram to Tux Brs. |- The fact that Lincola lost its third game to Duluth today has created con- siderale talk about hippodromes giving the game away, etc. From a grand stand point of view, the game was won by Hart and Ely respectively pitcher and shortstop for the Duluth team. ~ The Farmers could not et on to Hart's curves, and what fow times they did manago to hit the sphore, Ely at short corraled the bail in its mad course. Burkett pitched the fiest four innings for Lincoln. Ho was hit protty hard, aud the er- rors in the fleld heiped tho Duluth team to make the six runs that won the game After Stafford took the box the visitors vere completely quesred, but it availed nothing.

You bet I will,”” and the chief owner of the Omaha base ball team disappeared, ostensibly for no placo in particular, leaving the impression that ho was going after the much needed pitcher, But yesterday it transpired that St. Paul, Minn., was the end of Mr. McCormick's journey, and that the sale of the Omaha team intact to some of the capitansts of that city was the object. It is not known whothor the_intended sale contemplates the transfer of the Omaba 1 to St. Paul or not, but it s known that a deal for the sale of the McCormick interest is under way. Several finaucially re blo gentlemen discussed the matter y day, und expressed some surprise that any deal looking to a trausferof the team would bo considered for a moment. “If Mr, McCormick wants to sell out, said a well known _ capital “lev him make kuown his and he can fiod a purchaser in Omaha. guorantce that the club will bo well sup- ported hor: This sentiment was endorsed by others, and the belief that Omaha should not bo de- prived of representation in tho We sociation was strongly expressed.

Stronuous Efforts to Make Effictive the Boyoott Against That Road, OTHER ROADS URGED TO THE BATTLE. Crediction that the Alton's Victory is Close at Hand-Lake and Rail Competition — Passenger Rates Must Drop. Citieaao, June 24— Fyidenco is not want. ing that tho board of rulings of the Trans Lizos Central Traflo association ara still pushing forward more strenuous offorts to make effective the boycott against the Alton The following is & copy of a circular that has boen sent to the genoral managers of the castern and waestorn roads: “Information from foreign lines hias beon rocoived by the board to the effect that cortain companios parties to the joint commission agroement” of January 0, are not maintaining it in all par- ticutars, The board will feel obliged if you will kindly inform it of tho proseut attitudo of your company upon tho following points: Y1, Is your compauy paymg passongor commissions at any point within or boyond the territory of tho joint commission!

LAKE AND RATL COMPETITION, Another break in castbound lake and_ rail rates was inaugurated by the Ogdensburg ransit company of tho Central Vermont line, T. B. Liustoed, tho agent of that line, says from tho day he advanced rates in accord- ance with the agreement of the Trunk Line association ho has uot been ablo to get a car load of freight from the west of Milwaukee. “On even rates this line always gets its sharo of the traflic, ho said, but the two weeks wo have been frozen out.” \When the other lines are willing to make an houest advance the Central Vermont will be with them but wo want no more such frosty deals in hot weather as wo Lave had this timo. While no open_reductions have as yet beon accounced flour and other sixth class freight is going for- ward to Now York at 15 conts a reduction of 5c. Provisions aro also re- daced. Now that the Central Vermont has made an open reduction from 25 cents to 20 cents on New Eneland traffic the other lines will no doubt issuo the same tariffs. In the meantume railvoad men are encouraged to hope that a restoration of west-bound rates may bo effected soon. Advices from New York today say that tho Lackawanna hus consented ‘o tomporarily withdraw its 8120 scale of rates to St. Paul by way of Green Bay, pending the consideration ot the matter by ‘the different companios. BATES MUST DROP. It is expected that Cuairman Finley will ive his decision today ou the question of whether the passenger rate may bo reduced from $12.50 to $10 between Chicazo and Kan- sas City. The Alton, which asked for the reduction, fully believes that the ruling will b in its favor, but whether it is or not that road will most certainly reduce the rates to tho basis proposed, pleading justification in the evidences of a regular complaint laid be- foro the chairman yesterday.
