END OF THE BREEDERS' MEET Last Day's Raoes Develop Some Very Enter- taining Sport. ANNIE ONLY WINS HER RACE EASILY Consnl Chlef Captares the First and Kiln Woodiine Shuts Out the Fieid in the Nebraska Faturity—Other Sporting News, The elosing day's races of the State Breeders meeting were witnessed by an- other fair crowd of spectators, who made up in enthusiasm what they lacked in numbers. The hope inspired by Friday’s largo attend- anco was that it would be duplicated if not surpassed yesterday, but as usual, this hope was based on unstable grounds. A two- days success in ono week was move than Omaha could stand, and the old crowd of 500 or 600 was ail that were presont in both stands and quarter stretch The weather was even better than ever, the firmament being obscured by hazy, threatoning clouds and the temperature boeing of that delightful medium best caleu- lated for outdoor sports. gFrom a standpoint of speed and fine horses the ninth annual meeung of tho Nebraska Breeders, however, can only be denominated as an unqualified success, but financially considered 18 a matter the least commented on the better. The management has every- thing to be praised for and nothing 1o re- grot. s Was & Horse Race.

Karatus drow the polo and got, away swiftly with Elastic snd Consul Chiet at his head. Elastic forged ahead at tho eighth, and on the quarter Consul Chief ‘was, in second vlace, Karatus having lost ground by ' reason of a jump up. Consul Chief got down to busi- ness in the third quarter ana went after Elastic hotfoor, but when his chances looked most bright, broke and Elastic won by & couple of lengths, Karatus distanced.

Thoy jogred around to the stretch pleasantly, Chatting with each other, Elastic with a couple of noses to the good. Between the distance and the wire, E e became a trifle too elastic, and was guilty of a jump up that cost him the lead.

A's. and Conventions Have Won Two Yesterday afternoon, at the Young Men's Christian Association park, the fourth game in the chumpionship series between the Youug Men's Christian Assoclation team and Tom Bermingham's Conventions re- suited in o for the latter by a score of $1o5. To say that the Christians feel bad over it is putting it mildly, because they went out to the park feeling contident that ‘viclory was theirs, and it might have been, perbaps, 'if they had mot gone ' all to ' pieces at the end of the fourth inning. From that point in the game they seemed 1o lose all ambition, and judging from their subsequent play it seemed as if sowe of them had dropped off to sleep. T'he serios no'y stands horso and norse, two grames apiece. The gawe which will decide the chumplonship takes place, woather permiting, next Saturday, when oach team is determiuned to win or die in the attemps. The Young Men's Christian association went to the bat first, but failed to sccom- plish anything, the Conventions following with a like result. In the second, howe the “Christians'” piled up three ruas, Jellen, the old war-horse McKelvey and Connor each mbpugiog 10 reach the home plate. Carrleap, for the Conventions, got round the diamond, while noue of the others did, snd it 'was right here that the Ynunfi Mon's Christian association boys and their friends lot their feelings get the better of them and how they did yell. But it was a little too premature, as the result of the e howed. Tn the next neither scored played ball and pretty good ball o, fourth Toning resylted in a blank as far as the Young'Men's Christian associa- tion was concerved, but tho Couveutions ot three of their men home, making the score 4 10 3 1n thelr favor. Evidently this broke their opponents up, for they failed to acore lu the uexi, whereas tbe Brum boys ol added two more to thelr score. The sixth furnished duck oggs on both sides, tho Young Men's Christan astociation keoping to the poultry businoss in the seventh also while ~ the Conventions scooped in another coupfe of runs. This inning was brimful of incidents. Conner got his head instend of s bat in the way of the ball and had to retire, Jellen taking his place in the box, and Trail taking Jelien's at center. MoKelvey, who had evidently lost all interest in the gamo, was caught pping. He managed to somewhat retrieve himself when Carrigan attempted to got home, but failed, as Mac woke up in time to his little game, ighth the Young Men's Christian fon team tried valiantly to stem tho tide of defeat, but to no purpose, although they managed to got two of their men, Abhot and MeKelvey home, while the Brummagem outfit auded siill another in the ninth and last. The Young Men's Christian association boys gave up the ghost after hatching another egg, and so ended game number four. Dave Shanaham of the Nonpareils as umpire, and as usual hi cases did not meet the tacit approval of both sides. Previous to the ball game there was a couple o races run by the members of the Young Men's Christian Association Athlotic club with the following results: One-fourth mile: 'Staley won, Woods second, Osborne third, Nicholas fourth.

The batsmen never had a show. Inthe hour and a hal’s play only fifty-nine runs were scored off the bat by twenty-eight players and the highest score of the day was 10, The brothers George and Willie Vaughan had chosen clevens which wcluded most of the strongest men in the club. The cool weather, or some unaccountable fever of en- vhusiasm, brought out a lnrger number of players than on any previous day this year. The captains were like two old women living in o shoe, that is they had more men than they kuew what to do with. When the game finally started there were no fewer than fourteen on each side. Marshall and Hart opened the innings for George Vaughaa's side about 3:50 to the bowling of Robb and Doyle. Robb was quite at his best and the state of ground heiped him immensely. 1t was in the third over when Hart had made one run that Mar- shall's wicket fell, from the next ond run was scored, and then Ha Le Geyt and the captain were the next in, but neither of them scored anything, and there were four wickets down for h: many runs. Robb had taken three of th and throughout the innings his tinued to prove most deaaly. The pitch was hard as asphalt, and the ball shot from where it touched the ground teo low Yo bo hit and right on to the wicket, Gleave and New had now got together and it looked as if they would make a stand, but just as they were settling down Robb ptured Gleave's wicket and Gavin went in, This was the only partnership that raised the figures appreciably on either side. They put on sixteen runs before they were soparated, and both of them eventually fell to Robb's deadly balls. The last six wickets fell for eleven runs. Robb bad taken eight wickets, all clean bowled, aud for an average of less than a run and a half apiece. ‘Wilson started out for the other side with Marshall and George Vaughan bowling. For a time it looked as if three or four wickots would be enough to make the necessary 37. Wilson played as confidently as he ever did and hit about freely, He hit a 3 and a 4 and a2 in very short time, and finally n_block- ing a fast ball from Vaughan he let the ball roll from his batonto his wicket. Taylor was rienout very soon after. He was at- tempting what seemed to be an easy enough run, but the vall was thrown up behind him and, as luck woula have it, knocked his down before he knew where he wa: t in third wic down and by ay held his wicket up until total had been raised to 23, but of » 16 had been scored when he went in, the first partnership. The later wickets did lhittle. Five wickets were down for 20, sevel nd there were three more wickets to fall with 14 runs wanted. This meant about double the a age of the match so far. Things looked bad. Anderson hit three 3's and Hill a 2 and a 4, but twelve wickets were down for 3 the last fell without addiug the one run that was still required. The match thus ended in a tie. Play throughout had been slack. 1t seemed that the speed at which the wickets fell took all life out of the batting and the lack of zeal secmed to spread to the fielders.

This is in order to resolve the douby as to whether the capsizing was due to the defective design of her construction or the fact that the wateruight compartments are not completely closed. The inquiry will take the form of either a Amentary committee or a commission of inquiry similar to that which inyestigated the Tay bridge disaster, The minutes of court murtial of the survivors of the Victoria are in the meantime to be presented to Parlia- ment.

BoyBaY, Aug. 11.—A riot occurred in this city today between Mohammedans and Hin- doos. Both sects were observing religious festivals and feeling was high. The men who were first involved in the dispute soon came to blows. The number of . riot- ers grew rapidly, and when some of the Mohammedans proposed to capture one of the holy Hindoo temples, they found plenty to aid them in the attempt. They rushed to tho temples, but the priests, aided by hundreds of Hindoos, fought desperately ugainst the desecration of the building and finally succeeded indriving the attackers off, The fighting was continued in the vicinity and finally the authorities were compelled to call out the troops to restore order, which was ultimately done after cousiderable trouble. Many injured natives are in the hospitals as the result of the riot. ——— Progress of the Yellow Fever, WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.—The surgeon general of the Marine Hospital service to- night received a telegram from President Inge ot the Mobile, Ala., quarantine board, stating that the British bark Gelenora ar- rived at the Fort Morgan quarantine station with two cases of yellow fever on board.

Fresident Reed's Addross. President Reed of the library association opened the exercises with a_thoughtful ad- dress. 1In the coursc of his speech he gave an epitome of the history of the library as- soclation since its organization o score of yearsago. He reviewed the obstacles it has overcome and the difficulties it has en- countered, speaking feclingly of the services rendered by three’ propiuent members now deceased—Messrs. Johri T. Edgar, James W. Savage and Byron Keed—and of the aid af- forded by Hon.'A. J. Poppleton, Mrs, Popple- ton and Miss Poppleton, who is a member of the association and chairman of the commit- tee on books. Mr. Reed further expressed hi: pride in Omaha’s library system and to ex: tend to the outside public a standing invita. tion to come ana visit the library and how the books in its possession are circu- lated and cared for, Ho concluded with strong good wishes for the success of the en- terprise so auspiciously launched, Prayer by the Grand Chaplain, Rev.

He wants rest and quiet and above all things freedora from public business. Although various stovies were afloat yesterday there ~ was no disposition among those who kiéw of the facts to deny that Mr, Cleveland has been suf- fering under a groat nervous strain, and that for him to remain in Washington would have been fraught with peril. The decision that he should leave for Buzzards Bay was reached Tuesday be- fore he sent ‘his message to congress. There1s nothing in the story that he was fretted by the m of the mos- sage or the failure of congress to act on it immediately. Thetruth is that after his arrival Saturday it was felt that he was in no condition to attend w0 public business. He held a cabinet meeting that day and repaived immediately thereafter to his country home. Since then the only porsons who have secn him at Woodley were Secretaries Carlisle, Gresham and Lamont, two or three congressional friends and his brothe Rev. William Claveland. While the president speaks of the strain of his official duties as tho cause of prostration he does not refer to rheumatic troubles which have made inroads on his magnificent consti- tution. In former years Mr, Cley land stood the sieges of offic holders and the pressure of public busi- ness fully as great as that to which he has been subjected sinee March 4, Th fact that he cun no longer stand such prossure is taken as a sign that his gen- eral health is not sa good.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 12,—As a result of the scarcity of currenocy in New York and other cities, New York exchange in Indianapolis has gone higher than ever before. The banks do not want to handle bills of exchange at all. Those who want exchange may get it by pay- ing from $20 to #30° per $1,000 for it, but the rate is s0 high that exchange is not being done except where it is absolutely necessary. Ingniry developes the fact that business botween the seaboard cities and Indianapolis, as well as all of the western cities, has been practically suspended until the demand | Char of the eastern banks for currency ceasos to be 80 gveat. The movement of the wheat erop and of liva stock to the sea: board has just bagun, and bankors say that if they handle eastern exchange on the basia of former yoars the western banks would soon be drained of their currency.

If the demands for tickets and the reseryation of boxes by have any significance the capacious structure will be crowded from pit to dome. Delegations from all sections are pouring in and by Monday there will bo within the corporate limits of Chicago every species of sports from the Atlantic to the Pacific slope. Money on the fight is being heavily wagered, the price in books being 9 to 10and take your pick. Greggains is 1+ within the 158-pound limit and will have no trouble whatever in remaining there. Creedon has been plodding alongs built somewhat on the order of the Jack of Sports, Creodon looks iko a veritablo Florcules his mus: cles standing out like whipcords all over his finely proportioned frame. The utmost interest attaches to the mateh by reason of the equal conditions that appoar to pervade it, and save in the matter of height and reach, which favor Greggains and which are more than attoned in Creedon by reason of the latter’s suporb physical development and wondrous strength, there is little or no difference between the two men. i s wine & WHAT TO DO WITH EXHIBITS.
