The vis- ftors had it won, but lost it through a little careless batting at a time when runs counted. Rourke did good work on third, and the battery work of Whitehill and Fear was fine. In the seventh inning Omaha was ahofd, 7 to 5, and in the eighth Jacksonville made two more by hard hitting and tied the scope. Strauss made a long hit to center and’-Letchor, who was on second, came in, thus winning the game. The score: JACKSONVILLE. A 1B, PO. A. E.

LOUISVILLE, May 22.—There were about 2,500 people at the Downs today, and the track was heavy and muddy. The weather was much warmer, although .there were showers up to 2:30 o'clock, when it cleared off and the sun came out bright. The fea- ture of today's card was the Clark stak at one and a quarter miles. :There were only three starters in {t—Chant, Buckrene and Pearl Song—and each carried 122 pounds. Chant was the first under the wire Dy two lengths. The horses got away at the first break in the following order: Chant first by a half length; Buckrene second a half length in front of Pearl Song. Passing the stand, the order was: Buckrene first by a length, Pearl Song second by a neck in front of Chant. At the half: Buckrene first by half a length, Chant second, one length ahead of Pearl Song. At the mile the order was: ~Chant first by a neck, Buckrene second, eight lengths ahead of Pearl Song, who every one thought was out of the race. The order was the same in the stretch, but Willlams began whipping Pearl Song and came through like the wind, clos- ing the gap and beating Buckrene out for the place. The stake was worth $2,830 to the winner. The bookies had the best of it again today, only two favorites winning.

Starter Rowe was in one of his worst conditions, and could not get the horses off. In the Seaside stakes eleven 2 ds were held in the rhin for twen| and t The Coon was pra left “at August Belmont's imported colt, was an easy winner at long odds, while a other long shot, St. Vincent, got the sec- ond place. In the Gazelle stakes Nuhma had no trouble to win. Only three were left in the second race and Blitzen won as he pleased. He was heavily backed. Dob- bins was made a strong favorite in the last race, but he had iccumb to the outrid- den ' Aurelian, conceding too much welght y going. Re- suits: First race, fi 1) won, Herkim B to 1) third.

In speaking about his arrest Breckenridge said “I intend to take a litle man. The arrest was a great surprise to me and at first I felt it keenly, but now T am reconciled to the situ- ation. Naturally | expect to be taken back to Idaho, as I understand the United States marshal has ordered the arrest of Colohan and myself for assisting in stealing a train. As far as I am concerned [ am ready to 0 back any time and stand trial." When asked what effect, if any, his ar- rest would have on the main body of the army of Commonwealers of which he Is a member the colonel said: “I expect that when my arrest becomes known the boys of the army will ralse h—. " In other words, 1 am afraid they will seck revenge on the rail- road company. I have an important mes- sago for Mr. Clark, but he Is not here. It would be better for the road if Mr. Dickin- son recelved it in the spirit it is sent in than to Ignore our army and our movement en- tirely. ~ Our motto s ‘On to Washington,’ and we will get there.” “What will you do when you get there?" asked the newspaper man, “I don’t know, but we are going to Wash- ington, and don’t you forget it." The local police officials have wired ‘the facts of the arrest of Breckenridge and Colehan to the marshal at Boise City. About 3 o'clock yesterday morning Sergeant Shoop and Officers Dillon, McCarthy and Hotchkiss arrested nineteen Commonwealers in the rallroad yards. The men had just come in on freight trains and the police had been informed of thelr arrival. Bach man was charged with vagrancy and sleeping in a box car. When arraigned in police court these men were all discharged upon their promise to leave the city at once. Union Pacific officlals were noncommuni- cative yesterday regarding the Industrial- 1sts along the line of the system except to say that the army featurc of the monem- ployed was rapidly being broken up and that within a week all the contingents would be scattered. 1t was learned, however, that the oficials of the Overland will endeavor to cinch Breckenridge and Colehan for aiding _in appropriating the engine and cars at Montpelier and will send the men back for trial on the charge of being fugitives from justice. The sltua- tion demands this, the railroad officials claim, and to successfully put a stop to the constant menace which large bodles of men inspire the roads will tako summary steps to frustrate any more attempts at train steal- ing contemplated. But the old saw of tak- ing a horse to water but not being ablo to compel him to drink is quite applicable in tho case of the Commonwealers. The men along the system are determined to get east and will undoubtedly continue stealing rides wherever possible. Although the officials professed to feel that all the trouble with Commonwealers was at an end, they were considerably worried over the fact that thirty men got into Omaha Monday with Breckinridge and Colehan, showing to them that the men were determined to get cast at all hazards. DUKFF AND KELSE' my medicine like ARRESTED. Almost a Riot Provoked by the Actions of Creston Ofcinls. CRESTON, Ta., May 22.—(Special Telegram to The Bee)—Kelsey's division of the Com- monweal army arrived here at 7 o'clock this evening, Considerable sympathy was shown them by the populists.

The chief of police arrested Kelsey and Duff for violating the quarantine estab- lished against the army for passing through a smallpox district. They were taken before a justice and released on bonds of $250, their trial to occur tomgrow at 9 o'clock. The drmy was ordered to go into camp and not come into the city. When the arrest of the Commonweal leaders occurred there were about 4,000 people on the streets and the. greatest excitement prevailed and for a time a riot seemed imminent. When Kelsey and Duft were released and resumed com- mand of the army .a tumultous applause went up from the multitude. The sympathy of the city is with the Cozunonwealers. Kel- sey made a speech to about 500 people at the damp tonight and expects to address the citizens at the court house tomorrow night. COXEYTES IN MINNESOTA.

PAUL, May 22.—A Northfleld, Minn., special to the Dispatch says: The 11 o'clock freight train last night had a box car loaded with fifty-one Coxeyites, who quietly got aboard at Farmington, and at first re- fused to get off at this point.

PLANNING - BLOODY ~ WORK Oity Gouncil Sharpening an Ax for the Cut- ting Off of Heads, FORCES IN CITY OFFICES TO BE REDUCED In Furtherance of n Vigorous Policy of Re- tronch Talked Over in Secret Sesslon Yesterday Afternoon ~Victims Not Yet Designated. That a general lopping off of heads in the various clty departments Is contemplated by the city council is a fact that is causing considerable uneasiness In varlous quarters during these May days. For a week past there have been undefined rumors floating through the corridors of the city hall t something was going to drop, but no one seemed able to trace them to an authoritative It has been generally understood that certain members of the council had de- termined on a plan for reducing the current expenses of the city in some manner, but Just where the ax was golng to fall no one was able to tell. A vague rumor that an effort was to be made to usurp legis functions by abolishing the Board of Public Works and dividing the work of that de- partment between the engineering depart- ment and the chairmen of the committees tound credence with some, and other stories l;qunlly absurd were circulated from day to day. The facts are that the council meditates a sweeping system of retrenchment all along the line. There are men employed in nearly every department whose services can, in the Judgment of certain councilmen, ba disp:nsed with without detriment to the city. It is claimed that the matter has not progressed as far as the.selection of the particular in- dividuals who are to be officially beheaded; but there is but little question that there are half a dozen clerks and insp:ctors who are reasonably sure of belug out of a job very shortly, and an uncertain additional number who are on the anxious seat. The question of retrenchm:nt according to this plan has been under consideration for some time. Up to the latter part of last week the scheme was confined to a half dozen members of the council, but one by one other members were initiated fato the prospective step, and the matter culminated yesterday afternoon when th: council met as a committee of the whole in one of the com- mittee rooms to consider the question and decide upon a d:finite plan of action to be brought before the regular neeting of the council, WAS DECIDEDLY EXCLUSIVE. The proceedings yesterday afternoon were of a strictly s-cret charac'er, botn the repre- sentatives of the press and a number or citizens who were in the committce rooms being excluded. The excuse was given that there were some very Important matters to be considered which it was not advisable that the public should learn until they were fully matured. Further than that the mem- bers refused to commit themselves and the door was locked and the transom closed tight to prevent any inkling of the Im- portant business referred to from reaching the outside of the committee room. Once left to themselves the councilmen entered into a general discussfon of th situation. Tt was submitted In evidence that the finances of the city were In a con- dition that indicated the certainty of a de- fielt at the present rate of expenditure. Hascall, Howell and others contended that there was an absolute necessity for some radical curtallment of the draught on the treasury, or there would not be enough money left to pay the salaries of the coun- cllmen. The committee remained in session for the greater part of the afternoon, and when an adjournment was taken It was with the understanding that. the headsman should be brought out and provided with a plenti- ful supply of victims. The discussion was general in character and names were not mentioned. It developed, however, that cer- tain members were of the opinion that the city had altogether too many inspectors on the pay roll whose services it could well afford to lose. Just which ones are re- ferred to none of the members wers willing to state, but it Is understood that the side- walk inspector stands In the front rank of the prospective sufferers. WILL NOT GET THE MONEY. Incidentally, it Is given out cold that the additional appropriation asked for by the Board of Health will not materalize this year. A couple of weeks ago Health Com- missioner Saville addressed a communica- tion to the council stating that at the pres- ent rate of expenditure the health fund would be insufiicient by about $5,000 to con- tinue the work of the year. He declared that if an extra provision was not made for the necessities of the department he would dfscharge every inspector at the end of the current month, If the council would not provide the necessary funds to run the de- partment he was going to shut up shop be- fore the fund was entirely exhausted. When the communication was read before the council Hascall moved that it be tahled without ceremony. Wheeler and others ob- Jected on the ground that the request ef the commissioner should be glven a decent con- sideration at least, and the communication was finally referred to the committee, In whose hands it still remains. The report of the committee will undoubtedly be to the effect that the board will have to follow the example of the other departments and get along as best it can with the original appro- priation. At the regular meeting of the council last night an adjournment was taken until Thursday night, in order to allow the repub- llcan state central committee the use of the council chamber. This was in compliance with a motion by Sanders and a committeo consisting of Mayor Bemis, Councilmen San- ders, Jacobsen, Edwards and Wheeler and City Attorney Connell was appointed to apprise the committee of the action of the counell.
