HAVE GONE T0 JOIN DULUTH. Linooln's Little Base Ball Team Yields np lts Young Life. TOO MUCH DAVE ROWE PROVZD FATAL. Peace About to Be Declared Between the National and the American— Results of Yestevday's G Lixcory, Neb, Aug, 20.—| gram to Tiw Bee)—The Lincoin Baseball club is no more. 1t has been decided to with- draw from the Western association and dis- band the club. Baaker Mosher. who owns the franchise, called a meeting of the persons interested. Messrs, Mosher, Little, Harloy, Lemist and Townley were present, and attor a long discussion 1t was decided by these gontlemen that since they hud already lost in the aggregate about #,000 on accountof Dave Rowe, that they did not carn to take any further risks. A gamo is being played this afternoon for the benefiv of the club, This will be the last gamo that the cluv will play Tho immediate cause for the disbanding of the Lincoln baso ball elub is the reported rascality of Dave Rowe, the late manager of the club. The members of the club are very freo in the expressions of their opinon of Dave Rowe us o manager, and every other way. Bitter words of condemuation are heard on every side concerning his trickery and abuse of the confidence placed in him by the people of Lincoln. The players say that when they left for the late extended trip July 1, that £. W. Little of tho street reilway company gave each of the boys bis check for #0, and they left feeling perfectly satisfied that they would receive their saiaries in full on théir return home. 1t is_certain that Dave Rowe received at least £2,100 on the trip, but tho players re- ceived from him only smail amounts ranging from $1 to £ apiece during the ontire triv, Ho is at least over &,000 ahead from this sourco. Mr. Littlo is reported to be out nearly ,000 through his faith in Rowe's houesty. Before the season was opencd C, W. Mo- sher, J. H. Harley, K. W. Towley and others signod a £3,000 noto for Rowe, on which he secured tho cash to pay advanco mouey to the players. ‘I'he citizens of Lincoln raised a subscription fund of 5,200 and the Lincoln stroet railway company contributed $1,000 more. About two worths ago friends of tho club sold 5,000 worth of tickets for the re- mainder of the season. About July 4 Mr. Little advanced Rowe $1,350 to pay up sala- ries, Rowe making a most pathetic appeal for that amount. The earnings of the club this season have bean in the neighborhood of £13,000. To this should be added the sale of Darnbrough to Knnsas City for $200, and £00 more for score cards, to suy nothing of other minor sources revenue. karly in the season Rowe issued 100 season tickets at §5 each. There is no record of the sales, but the lot, if sold, would have brought &3,600. He worked oue of the hotels on the quiet for 25 a month for his in- fluence on visiting clubs. It is also known that he horrowed money of scveral persons. The money roceived on the trips away from home was more than suflicient to pay all sal- arles. It is therefore estimated that Dave Rowe has done the Lincoin people up for about $10,000 or $12,000 from a conservative standpoint. This is No News. S, Lovis, Mo., Aug. 20.—Tho Post-Dis- pateh this afternoon says that at the meeting of the American association in this city it was resolved by tho magnates to effect a compromiso with the national lengue. The deal is now on and unless somo hitch oceurs everything will bo peaceful in the base ball world within a very short time. The league peonle have been talking peaco for some time, and tho overtures looking to a truce have come from tkem. A mecting to organizo the details for a compromise will bo held next week. It will probably occur on Tuesday. Brush and Von der Aho ngreed between themselves on s plan at their last meeting, but oach had to get the approval of his mssociates and next week when the conference is held it will bo found what each organization will demand and what each will concodo. Four Clubs to Finish. MinxEAvoLis, Minn., Aug. 20.—The West- ern Association directors ata meetng to- night decided to finish the season with four clubs—Sioux City, Kansas City, Omaha and Denver.

H, Aug. 20.—Although a large part of the crowd agreed with Sherift Brigham in his appeal for protection for Almy when he should be brought out of tho barn, several pistol shots, fired in the crowd while Brigham was talking, showed that thero was a difference of opiuion at that time, When Almy refusoed to como out as he had agreed to the temper of the peoplo changed and a general cry was sent up, “Don’t foo with him any longer; bring him out dead or alive, and do it auickly.” ‘Those who had been in conference with him having retired, u force with Winchester rifles was broucht and after locating him as near as possible from the outside the firing was commencod by tho riflemen. Almy responded with his revolvers, but the shoot- ing resulted in nothing except to bring another demand from Almy for a second talic with Solicitor Mitchell. Mr. Mitchell, notwithstanding, the in- creased desperation of the murdercr went, up to the hay mow. Of this second visit the solicitor says, “Almy was flourishing his shooting irons in a mannereven more danger- ous than before. As ho put thom under my nose, the expression on his face led me to think that my life hungon a very slender throad. He said to those within hearing: ‘Stand back, gentlemen, I hold Mitchell’s life inmy hand and if you wink I'll shoot him.” After some reference to our valk at the first meoting he agamn asked me if 1 would guarantee protection and a fair trial in the courts. I assured him that he should have both. He then called again for John H. Kuller, who came up where wo were, After going over the same talk again he handed one of his revolvers to me and tho other to Mr. Fuller. I have since learned that Sheriff Brigham, who bad secured a po- sition unknown to Almy, had his gun levelled on the parleying murderer, and was at one time at the point of pressing the trigger. The carriage driven by Sheriff Randall was then called for. It was driven up with tho curtains down. The crowd became furious at the prospect of losing a chance to see Almy as he should be driven away. They demanded a view of him and said they would take a hand¥in the affair unless the curtains were pulled up. They removed the curtains, Sheriff Brigham was soon seen coming down Jrom the hay mow with other officers bring- ing the murderer. He was placed in the car- vingro, but the people were so massed i the front' of the barn doors that it was a long time before they could be induced to move sufliciently to allow the team to pass out. Four officers with drawn revolvers were in the wagon and shouted to the people to stand back, Almy was so surrounded by officers that ho was scarcely visible and a rush was made for the carriage. The officers finally got the wagon clear, the horses were whipved into a rapid pace, and Almy was tauken to the Wheelock hotel. There was a grand rush of the several bun- dred teams woich soon arrived in the village. Almy was taken 1nto the dining room at the head of the staivs on the first floor. The office was instantly filled with people, who were still loudly calling for a sight of Almy. Five officors with drawn revolvers wero sta- tioned at the foot of tho stairway and prevented any passage. The streets about the hotel were packed solia with a turbulent crowd, who were pressing toward Almy’s re- treat. The officers soon became convinced that the crowd meant business and Sherift Bridgeman came out aud anunounced from the steps that Almy should e seen tomorrow, when he would bs avraigned at the prelimin ary hearmg. This plan was not satisfactor: ana the cry wontup “We want to see Almy today and wo are going to do it.” ‘Thie sheriff assured them thoy should see him as soon as bis wounds were dressed, When this had been completed the people were allowea to file through the room. The stream was kept up till over a_thousand had passed, when Almy fainted, and the doors were closed. ‘An examination of the murderer’s body showed that he had been shot three times, twice in the left leg belos the knee, tho lower shot breaking the large bone. The last shot scooped a hole out of the top of his head but did not touch the skull. This shot was fired by some one while Almy was talking with Dr. G. H. Hoffman about surrendering. None of the wounds are very seriow Almy says there is nothing it his past carcer that is bad except that ho had gambled some. He will be arraigned before Judge Cobb tomorrow, probably in the afte noon, on a warrant sworn out by N. A. Frost. 1t appears that the wounds in Almy's leg were made by Charles . Hewitt, the plucky state college student, who stood his ground and empticd his revolver into the haymow while Almy was firing out of it, neither party being visible to the other during the shooting. He escaped unharmed. At 1:30 p. m. Almy is sleeping and guarded by Shorift Brigham and his deputies. Atmy had on a belt filled with cartridges. Ho had in his pockets a largo knife, tooth brush and some matches, 1t is littlo short of @ miracle that with all the shooting that oc- curred today no ono was hit but Almy, Bul- lets whistled closely by the heads of the men who were guarding the side of the barn oppo- site the men who were using Winchester riflos. Tho Association press reporter had an in- terview with Almy while Lo lay on a cot in a room of the Wheelock house. He shows the effect of his biding 1n his thin pale face. He says he killed Christie, but had no idea of committing rape. After he killed tho girl he went direct to- Mr. Warden's barn, aud was there when her body was brought to the house. From his hiding place in the barn he had a full view of the house attho time of the fight. He says he has been on freauent visits to Christio's by nigut and moving about for food. e — .

The convention was called, and seems to be manipulated by the Mutual Protective as- sceiation, an organization which has for its object the fighting of foreclosures in tho courts. It is well known that the exceutive committeo of the farmers' allianco does not look with favor on this organization, and a few months ago had a meeting for the pur- pose of entering into negotiations with cast- ern money lenders to pay off the individual mortgaged indebtodness of the members of the alliance who conscientiously desived to be relieved of debt, Irank McGrath, who sot the ball in motion, is in attondance at the convention. When tho first session of the executive board was held, at which the payment of tho mort- gore indebtedness was discussed, Mr. Me- Grath stated that the alliance would convineo toe capitalists that 1t was not oreanized for the purpose of repudiating honest debts but to pay them The convention went into secrot session this ufternoon and will complete its business before tomorrow night. An address to members of the alliunce will be prepared for the committee appointed for the purpose, and it wili be publishad as soon as possible after the adjournment of tho con- vention. ‘rotec alliance com- LIVES LOST IN INDIANAPOLIS, Streams Overflow and Two Bo, Drowned—Other Casualties, IxpiaNarorts, Ind., Aug. 20.—One of the most terrific rain storms in the istory of ln- dianapolis occurred yesterday. The dam of the state ditch and Pogue’'s run- soon filled and the water spread to the adjacent torri- tory.

Up. to the presont time over eight hunared pieces of flesh have hoon taken from human arms and geafted to the body of William Shaw, who was soaldod ik the Standard Oil vefinery on July 4 and for a long time was on tho verge of’ the grave. Careful treatment and gontle nursing ros- d hit, but left hislower limbs, which had been scalded, entiroly, holpless. Tho grafts about three-eights of an wch in diamoter andare taken from the arms between tho elbow and the shoulder. I'he lifeless skin on the scalded parts is torn uway and the erafts applied. A thin skin is bound around tho purts, holding the grafts in their places and servinig to prevent putrefaction. quontly the grafts fail o attach _and have to be ré- placed by tresh ones. This explains why 500 of them have already been used. This is an extraordinary number and yet many moro aro oxpected to be used before entiro re covery is looked for. Yesterday six men, some” of thom 0’ unacqainted with the sufferer. came over from the refinery and bad grafts taken from their arms, Sinco tho grafting was commenced Shaw has stewdily improved and will now undoubtedly recover fully. o~ ITH HIS GUN.

D © the Ch Matter, New Youk, Aug. 20.—According to an of- fical report at the state department, says a Washington disputch, there 1s nothing for the adminiswration to do just now 1 Chiness matters and therefore nothing is being dono. Outside the walls of the state departnent, however, there is not that, feeling of security and confidence which roigns within. Naval ofticers of experience who have served on thy Asiatic station do not conceal their regret that we have not already an adequate force in Chinese waters for tho protection of our iuterests, and now that tho crisis is upon us more comprehensive and energetic naval measures are not deemed necossary by tho aaministration, These naval oficers do not underestimate the value of the diplomatic and naval concert. of action among the w tern powers, but they do lament the paucit of the American contingert. In conversation with Acting Secrotary of 1o Whurton today regarding the Chineso situation, he said: 1t is a mistake to beliove that this' government is wmoving slowly in this matter, and that the same encrgy Jis- Mayed by France, England and_Germany is lacking in the United States. This goveru- ment Las been keeping pace, step for stop, with those powers in_all_movoments, except, one, for tho propor prote in China. The one exception is in the display of naval cquipments. The latter is an im- possibility. The United States has but two vossols in Chinese waters and how can she expect to make o vespectable showing with those? Tho pavy dopartmoent has done all in its power and has ordered threo vessels from the Paciic to reinforce the skcloton of squudron along the Asialic coast. Kvery possible precaution has been taken to protect American interests in China. We havo united with the other great powors in making ry proper demand from the Chineso gov- ornment. Our ministar, Mr. Douby, received his instructions long ago, and every consul within the bordors of the ‘empive has his in- structions to use all means within his power to preserve the dignity of his government and to protect her citizens. “What more can be dope!
