Fort Wayne, 12: Minneapolis, 5. Corusipus, O., Juned0.—[Special Tel.gr.m to Tur Bre.]—The closo of the first cham- pionship season in this city was marked by two prominent features, ‘The first was tho escorting of Captain Dave Rowe from the grounds in the custody of a pair of policomes at the order of Umpire Snyder, The secoud was the winning of the game by Omaha in the fourth inuing without making a sioglo base hit. The trouble between occurred in the seventh inmng. O'Rourke was tho first man at the bat and ho mado a single, Campau following with a drive over second baso, Sheibeck wot the ball and claimed to huvo touched O'Kourke out, but Snydor would not allow the play. Then your Unclo Dave said something about Sny- der being a cur and Suyder's responso was a fine of §25. ‘This inceused Rowe so that ho repeated the romark, adding to it other expletives that would not look well 1n the religious de- partment of Tux Ber, Snyder then ordered Rowe out of the gamo and askea the ground policeman to take him off the groands, which was done. Bob Giiks then covered first and Darby went to center field for the balance of the game. They Couldn’t Touch Tommy. Vickery had his pitching suit on today ana the “Champs” could do nothing with him. He struck out ten mon, It was tho inten- tlon to pitch Handiboe, but Rowo had to havo today’s game in order to hold third place, therefore be gave Vickery a chance to dis- tinguish himsolf The work of the entire Omaha toam was excellent, but to Vickery belongs the palm of excollenca, Stephons, too, pitched a great guamo, but the crrors behina him lost thy battle at a critical juncture, i Tn the fourth inning Omaha won in a pecu- har way. Gilks got & baso on balls, and would have _been out at 'second on Kelly's forco hit, but Joo Walsh failed to hold McClollan's assist, Visner sacrificod from Stephens to Breckenridgo, when Gilks scor.d on a wild piteh. Merritt got the ball and threw to O'Rourke to catch Kelly, but Tim let the ball go through him and Kelly came skat 1ng in. Thoso two runs wero the game, for Colum bus could not get a man ovor the plate. The mighty Breckenridge, Abbey and McClel lan had chauces to Lie the score, but the base hit that they longed for never came. Scoro: Rowe and Snyder COLUMBUS, > Walsh, ss.

The committee was at oncoe uotified, and arrangements aro being made by which the additional chairs may be se- cured and piaced in the conveution hall. “Phis will give admission to that many move than it has been supposed could be accom- modated. ‘I'ne committee on decoration sent out dec— orations yesterdav and neariy all the wood- work of ihe great platform and the wall be- hind it is being hidden hencath festoons of flags and bunting. The pillars are also being swathed in drapories of the national colors, ana voluminous folds of red, white and blue amost bide from view the great arched trusses that support the acres of roof. The appearance of the convention hull is a surprise to even those who first contemplated fixing it up for that purpose. In could nov have been better arranged, had it been vuiit with solo refe to ‘this end. Many of those who Minneapolis or Chicugo, or both, it 15 better ar- ranged by far thiu were the conyention bails ut either of those cities, and that the interior appearance is much more attractive, Stand- ing in any part of the great structure tho scene, even with its empty chairs, can not fafl to arouse moro or less enthusiasm, and with them all filled it will, as Superintendent Whitlock said, ““bring out all the oratory thore is in any one who ovens his mouth from the olat- form.” “The The Big telograph companies have strun al wires to the building, and Mai Dimmock of tho Postal vesterday superintending the placing of his instru- ments in the room atlotted to him in the anuex just at the rear of the platform, “Tho iocul committes will have 1,500 tickets ana thoy desire it anvounced wnd fully understood vuat the tickets go to those wlo subscrive to the expense fund of the con- vention.

On no one occasion are the rosources of the great telegraph companies so soverely taxed as when a national convention 1s in progress. The proceedings of the conveution are not of interest alone to those who are par- ticipants in the dabates and witnesses of the struggle for party supremacy between rival factions. 'The whole country anxiously watches the contest and jmpatiently await the first tidings of the issue, In every cit the bulletin boards are beseiged by excited crowds and oven in the crossroads towns the malo population gzathers at the littlo telegraph oftice to hear ihe first news of tho vroceedings, Upon the tologranh companies devolves tho task of satisfving the curiosity that is s broad as the nation and nothing less than tho most minute and elaborate reports will answer the purpose. W hiie the convention is 11 sossion the tetegraph is strained to its utmost capacity. An army of skilled and diligent operntors ara hard at work night and dav flashing the all important news to every corner of the world, 1t tells the story of states battiing for tnewr favorites, of schewes and intriznes and of victories and defeats. The cheers that reververated through the convention hail in a moment, of exultation ave re-cchoed in lightning flashes from Maine to California and bhardly tas the result of a ballot been aunounced when th tidings ave flashed upon the bulletin boards iu New York and San Francisco. The general public hardly realizes tho enormous amount of work reqaired to ac- complish this result. But the telegraph com- panies are on their mettle. To fail would be to lose their prestigo and au executive ability acquired through years of experience, nided by the pest and most improved scientitic ap- pliances, makes success cartain. It is generally believed that this enormous business must be u soorce of great revenue, but that is far from being tho fact. For so great an fucroase over tho usual amount of business ereat preparations in_the way of additional facilities are required. These aro expensive anain many cases aro almost dead loss after the convention has adjourncd. It is estimated that the telegraph companies expended fuily 25,000 in additional facil ities for transmitting the reports of the pro- ceedings of the Minneapolis convention. Ihe amount expended by the Omaha man agers in preparation for the independent convention will be less than hall that amount. There is no _ city the United Sintes except New York and Chicago whers the regular telegraph fa- cilities are mord adequate and cffectual than in Omaha. Thereare 160 regular sending wires leading out of (Ymaha, and by the ad dition of auplex‘nd quadraplex plates these wires can be made more than suficient for the purpose. The preparations of both companies are nearly complete. 'Fhe Westero Union will have six wires running direct to the conven- tion hall. Thesg wjll be nsed for bulletins, private messages, rush messages ana for late matter i tho afterpoon. Tho greater part of their matter will bo sent by mounted mes- seugers to their office at Thirteenth and Douglas streets and distributed from that point. There * will be five messengers on duty at all times when the convention is in session. Tho trip from the hall to the oftico will be made jb five minutes and the messenger will bo:(llowed fifteen minutes to get back. This \will give a four minuth sery- ice, which will be dmply sufticient for the purpose. o handle the convention business the facilities at the central office haye been greatly anzmented. The apparatns has been increased by six addjtional quadruplex plate sets and four duplek sets, Togetner with 4,000 extra cells of batteries, Over thirty skilled operators from Chicago, Den- ver and other points will bs added to the regular force, which already consists of over 100 operators. An expert will be brougnt from Chicago to write bul- letins at the convention hall. Assistant Superintendent Lloyd,who had charge of the special newspaper matter at the Chicago and Minneapolis conventions, will perform the same oftice here. Accordiug to the information received by Superintendent Dickoy of the Western Union the amount of special matter will_not be as large as was anticipated. The Bufalo, indianapolis, Pittsburg, Baltimore, Phila’ delphia and mauy other castern papers will rely ~on the regular press reports for their convention matter. The New Yotik, Boston, Cincinnati ana Chi- cago papers will nearly all be ropresented by special correspondents during the session. ““We will have sixty wires directly available for the convention,” szid Manager Umsted of the Western Unlion, “and will be able to handle the convention with room to spare. Ono of the worst things we have to contend with is the possibility of our wires veing torn down by storms.
