““WHEN THE TWO-BILLS NEET fensational Coming Tozether of a Pair of 0ld Timers at the Ball Park, OMAHA AT LAST COMES OFF V.CTORICUS Very Protty Pltchers' Battle, In Whi Whitehill Had Far and Away the Best of It—-Details of the coln, 6 Quincy, sonviile, Feock 1:lind, 4; Peoria, tand, 4; I’hiladelp Washington, 8; Cincin New York, 3; Chica Hrooklyn, 2; Pittsbur Baltimore, 13; Loulsvile Boston, 12; St Kansas City, 1 napolls, 6 Toledo, 15; Minheapolis, 8. Detroil, 165 Milwaukee, What a fertile genius Bill Rourke is, any- way, and how the gods did smile on Omaha when she trapped him out in the sand hills near Grand Island. You never know what Bill has in store for you. Look what he did to Thomas Jefferson Hickey; then look what he didn’t do to St. Joe. When I look at Bill, standing out on third in all the wplendid blazonry of youth, and then look at the other men, I think with what little ref- erence to the rest of us exists this grand piece of physical architecture. 1 have seen Bill in a game of ball, though, several times, when you would no more take nim for an organized body, endowed with gensation and the power of voluntary motion, than you would Billy Nash of the Bos tons, But that s neither here nor there. He I8 always on the qui vive for surprise and we never go out to the park but what we meet with ono in some shape or other. But if Dill Rourke {s a wonderful geniu what s Bill Trafiley? They are both phe noms, but there are myriads of other thing in the world, grand and beautiful, that have no connectfon with either of them, stiil they stand out in bold sillouetto alone by them golves—a matchle:s pair. The Do prairie, the forest waving In curves of g ful beauty, the billow splintering on lonel shores, the grandeur stretching from fnac cessible peaks, all ask not the eye of man to admire them; neither does Bill Rourke nor Bill Traffley. But of the two of ‘em, give me Trafl When my father was a little barefoot Loy Traf was in his prime, and I remember one evening when we were all gathered around the old-fashiored hearthstone, of hearing father tell of the single-barrel shotgun presented to Bill for his first season's work on the ball fleld. That was with Nail Works' Team, right here in Omaha, some thirty or forty years ago. Some people pretend to believe that old Traf is a relic of the stone age, but that is not so. From the most reliable data at hand I find that he was co-existent with the glacial period, but can trace him back no further. What a thrilling career his has been, to note, as he bas, the march of events over our earth, the progress of the forest to the empire, decay draining its grassy mantle over these; new empires rising and Time successively crushing them under his tread, while swarms upon swarms of life, human, animal and vegetable, have glanced and disappeared, and yet here he is still playing short fleld for a base ball team from Des Moines, which was a mere frontier stockade when Bill was born, and playing it out of sight. It doesn't make a particle of difference whether Bill is cutting his third set of store tecth or not, he is a boy again the moment Mr. Haskell opens his face and cries: “Pe-lay ba-w-11." How his lamps do glint and gleam; how his cheeks blush and flush with rosy light, and what animation seizes those spavined legs and glass arms when the battle begins. BIill alone is worth twice the price of ad- mission. WHEN BILL MET BILL. After gotting larruped so outrageously down at St. Joseph this week, Biil Rourke set to work cogitating his gray matter on a good plan to get even. He knew that all Omaha would be sore if he failed, and he knew, too, that there is no such word as that in all his bright lexicon. Bill may be round-shouldered, and it may require soveral minutes at times for him to recol- lect that he is a live, sensitive, locomotive body, but he never forgets to carry him- solf ‘with lofty dignity and never forgets that he is as full of resources as a monkey 15 of fleas. e has just as magnificent command of language as John M. Thurston, but only uses it in his slecp. He also has a quick sense of humor, and often displays it when going after a hard hit grounder. You ought to have seen him stop one from old Traf's bat in the sixth inning yoster- day with the back of his neck and then SERIES 5. The Book of the Builders HISTORY oF mhe.. WORLD'S FAIR "}s’m ‘D.

June 8--Brooklyn won ore L10000000 1-2 L01000000 0-1 in Bang! Up went the little ball like a bird on the wing. Down, down It came, and set- tled gently and snugly in Jack Munyun's hands, then jumped out agaln, and ~Bill, xr;umns like a grampus, perched safely on rat. Munyun was hot, and signalling the um- pire, the game was called, and he went into the ‘club house and closed the door behind him, and the sound of a man kicking him- self half to death was heard In the grand- stand. The next moment Munyun came back limping, and took his position at second and the game went on. Mattie McVicker was buncoed by White- hill, and Munyun threw Oliver Wendell Holmes out at first. WHAT THE PITCHER DID But right here let me animadvert a triflo on Mr. Whitehill. He pitched a game pretty cnough to be frame For six inn the Prohibs couldn't have touched him with a ten-foot pole, and, in fact, during the whole game, connected safely but twice, He used his head as well as his hands, and had then uessing from wire to wir And too, was in it, and pitched a game, if the score does show marks against him. He is careful ady, and can’t help but do good magnificent eleyen 1 in the second inning, after two hands were out, Billy Moran, the child wonder, hit the ball out of the lot, and we had a start of one. After that there was no more scoring until the fifth fanings, when the Rourkes run four in a fence corner and captured them alive. Alexander, the great, sat down on three wild, passionate thrusts into space, but the first’ white child born in Indianapolis, Em- met Seerylammed her up against the fence for a single. Munyun walked down, but McVey, in his vauiting ambition, smashed one clear to the pitcher, and was brained at first. Then Fear faced the Clark street delegate. “There are times when I feel the need of doing something to give play to the flexor and extensor muscles of my arms, but this is not one of them,” said the Kid, as he ambled to first on four wide ones also, Papa ne next, and begging old Traf to forgive him, he hit Mr. Gragg a rap that he'll re- member to his dying day. It was a three-bagger and everybody came home, Bill himself following the next mo- ment on Willie Billie Moran's third safe hit. It is painful to chronicle Colonel Trafiley's discomfiture up to the seventh inning, and many of the spectators were in tears, as, with bated (lemonade) breath they sat and watched. They did so hope that something would happen to upholster the dark clouds on the horizon of his despairing soul with a silver-plated lining and fill his heart with cheer. And there Qid. Hoffman, the first man up, caught Mr. Blackhill when he wasn't looking and lifted one of his down shoots over the fences for a pair of pillows. Alexander didn't like this some more, so he fired one over Billy Moran's head, and Hoffman staggered on to third, whence he landed on the wild and wooly effort of Me- Vey to do something, the secrot of which no one has vet discovered. In the cighth both sides took two, and that ended it.

Joseph H. Millard, president of the Omaha National bank, and ons of the directors of the Union Pacific, talekd yesterday on the of the Boissevian reorganization ne for the “Overland” system. hile the schemo is an excellent one for government, it leaves the stockholders In a somewhat ambiguous position,” sald Mr. Millard, “Something must bo given up in order to satisfy all interests, and I presume Mr. Bolssevain has canvassed the matter thoroughly, otherwise he would not suggest a blanket mortgage for the bondholders. It will be a happy day when the road passes out of the hands of the court into the gov- ernment of the stockholders and their ap- pointive ofiicers. It seems to mo that every community along the system cannot help but deprecate the necessity for judicial conduct of the vast property which has been a ploneer in bringing the west intouch with the east, Selfishness, if no other consideration, would seem to demand a united front in lifting the burdens of the cimpany, that the Unfon Pacifie, with debts well cared for, might take its place among the great trunk lines of the country. As to the merit of the government plan fortaking care of the mort- gages, it seems to have been more carefully considered, and congress should act upon the plan with alacrity that the system may be kept from disintegration. When the road is taken out of the hands of the courts and_ is allowed to run according to President Clark’s ideas and that of the directors it will be a day of enthusiasm for all this section. Under existing con- ditions it is impossible to operate the roud to the same advantage as when it was a solvent corporation, for the court or the master in chancery must be consulted upon every move contemplated. A switch not ‘be put in nor an employe discharged without the sanction of the judiciary, which necesarily handi- caps the operating department greatly and leaves the road with powers greatly abridged. Mr. Bolssevain knows the importance of legislation looking to the set- tlement of the government debt, and his in- terview shows that the forcing bondholders have given their consent to the scheme of readjustment outlined by the Olney bill.

The damage done to the Oregon Railway and Navigation company by the recent floods in the Columbia and Snake rivers seems to have been considerably overestimated, ac- cording to Secretary T. M. Orr of the Union Pacific, although Mr. Orr stated it would be impossible to estimate the damage until after the waters had subsided, leav- ing the rails exposed. He thought, however _that not more than 100 miles of track would be found damaged, and in many places he said the track would undoubtedly be foud intact when the waters fell. The repairs necessary to bring the track back to its old condition will be made by the Union Pacific, but will be charged up against the Oregon Railway company, which will have to make good the amount ex- pended for maintenance and repairs of the road. Probably it will take $1,000,000 to put the road back in its normal condition, which will leave the net carnings of the Oregon company in a very dilapidated state. This flood which has covered almost the whole of Idaho like a sea comes at a most inopportune time for the bondholders of the Oregon Railway and Navigation company, who are contemplating filing a bill for a separate receiver. In railroad circles it is thought the bill will not be filed now until after the tremendous damage has been repaired by the Union Pacific, when they wiil Jump in and take the road away. But there will be few heart- aches on the part of Union Pacific officials when the road severs Its connection with the Overland. ~ Since 1891 the traffic people of the Union Pacific have been in a constant stew over their position in the Palouse coun- try, and continual quarrels have ensued with the Northern Pacific and Great Northern lines over Pacific coast business. Should the Oregon Railway and Navigation com- pany get a separate receivership it would leave the Union Pacific in much better con- dition through trafic arrangements than through its present lease on the line, which includes some 2,000 miles of track and water facilitles. Altogether, the conditions are : Profuund_li Gratoful Symptoms of Cancer Ro- moved—Rheumatism Cured A Chicago Clergyman’s Faith In Hood's Sarsaparilla. 0. 1.

All lines met today to Atchison withdrawal. ~ The accused declared uncquivoeally that they had can celled the contracts concerning which the Atchison had information, and they would remain cancelled whether or not the Atchison withdrew. Another meeting will be held tomorrow. Unless peace is e blished there will be no net earnings in western passenger business for the next two months I'rom the facts developed today it may be the agrcoment can be restored. If every passenger officlal at the meet ing " told the truth, there are no cut rate contracts now In existence. Such con- tracts were admittedly made, but each line clalms it cancelled all it had outstanding aftor the meoting of May 28, Ordinarily it would be possible to establish the truth of these clalms, and, if they were valid, to avoid demoralization. Confidence is of late an unknown quantity among western pas- senger officials, however. Assertions of innocence are not accepted as good collat- eral. No passenger official would deceive his president, however, and the way is open for the latter to duplicate thelr record of the freight agreement and assume the responsibility for the maintenance of passen- ger rates.
