SEERY SAVED THE GAME Brilliant Work by the Grand Old Man Wins the Last from Peoria. HELPED A SENSATIONAL DOUBLE PLAY 7 11t and Threw a Man tin th of Cat O & Home ¥ Out ut secor Erief Story G th — Omuha, 12; Peoria, 7. Lincoln, &} Rock 1sland, Hrooklyn, '15; Boston, b New York Baltimore, 1 Chicago, 17; Pittsburg, 14 Indianapolis, 9; Grand Raplds, 0; forfelt. That was somewhat better yesterday after- noon. The Rourkes hopped on to the Peoria Blackbirds beat in the best game of the series by a score of 12 to 7. Notwithstanding the fact that it was wash day there fine crowd out, the grand stand being w filled with ladies and their escorts, Iy adversity with which the Omahas had come in contact on the two previous days seemed to have no dampening effect on the ardor of the cranks, and they were as hilariously enthusiastic ever., They began their rooting In the first inning, and never let up until last Blackbird turned up his little to the daisles. Alex Whitehill, that reliable old etandby, ‘was In the box for Papa's tribe, and with the exception two innings he deported him- self in masterly style. In fourth and eighth the enemy sized him for eight hits, four in cach, and all the runs they mado in the game. The old man was a trifie wild, but at critical stages held the hard hitting Illinolsans down to fungos or easy grounders, and try as hard as they might they could not overcome the fate that was surely im- pending. But there was a mighty scare in the last inning, and the big crowd fairly held its breath until the clouds rolled by. 1t was like this The score stood 12 to 7 In favor of the Rourkes, and it looked reasonably sure that it was all over. But you all know how un- certafn the great game i, and that victory 1s never clinched as long as there i3 a man left to hit the ball. Carroll was the first man up in the last. He looked de'ermined and kept jabbering at ‘Whitehill until he got his base on wide one He Immediately stole sccond, and then that buffoon of the western diamond, Algernon Shaffer, got his wheels to moving, and, as a consgquence, Flynn promenaded also. Then the Whole Distillery gang opened up in one grand chorus and Alex filled the bases, t mighty Purvis walking down. That made three bases on balls straight, and the crowd in the grand stand was as solemn and silent as if gathercd about a grave. Indeed it did look tickish. A home run is a common thing at the Charles Street park and one right here meant a whole lot of things to the Rourke family. It would come within one of tying the score. Delehanty, and a dangerous man he is, espeoially fn a pinch, here stepped up to turn the trick, but while he failed it was only by a hair's breadth. There were two balls and two strikes called on him when Alex handed him one just right and he smashed it. It looked like a cortain home run, but Seery sprinted back until his shoulders were and them out was 1 as very th toes the up fairly jammed against the fence and picked | (‘]t‘ll.m;l“vlu Caruth the sphere out of the air. But that wasn't all he did. The three base runmers, think- ing that it was over the fence and a four- sacker sure, had all left their bases and were tearing for the plat Too late they discovered their error, for by a little run and a quick throw Emmett lined the ball in to Hutchison at second and little Flynn ‘wag doubled up with Delehanty. . Then a great wave of noise arose in the park. It was the maddened throng cheering one of the most brilliant and, timely plays seen on the' grounds this year. ‘That settled it, for while it enthused the Rourkes and their followers, it crushed all hope in the bosoms of'the gallant Black- birds. Sommers tried hard enough, to be sure, but the best he could do was to send _up a little fly back of second, which Hutch easily got, and the gamo was over. ‘While there is neither time nor space for individualizing, it would be reprehensible to omit a word of praise for Ulrich, Langsford and Seery. The former is one of the foxiest players on the field today, always alive to every point in the game, always on the ' hustle, and always playing ball. The Lily 18 another good thing. me of his stops and throws were of the circus order, and he is only out of the game when it is over, Seery dld his part mainly with the stick and It was through this that victory wa: made certain.

But I have difficulty whatever in saying that when the schedults of the bill, with the senate amend ments, gel into normal operation it will pro- duce sufficient and more than sufficient rev- enue for the support of the government LARGE ACCUMULATION OF SU. “I should add to the answer in the beginning the bill will perhaps produce as much revenue as will resu it later under its working, b I am Informed, whether it be true or not don’t know, that the Sugar trust, in antici pation of the passage of the bill, has im ported about $100,000,000 worth, or, it has b sald, even more than that quantity of raw sugar.' “Will the passage of this bill, in your judgment, save the country from the further issue of bonds?" continued Mr. Hudson. “I think I have already covered that ques- tion In my previous answer. It may be in the first few months of the operation of the bill, because of this great accumulation of raw sugar, to which I just referred, that the revenues of the government will not be sufficient to meet the expenses of the gov- ernment. But it is my belicf, in view of the large amount of imported goods in bond and also in view of the fact there will be large importations when the tariff rates are def nitely known and fixed, that if the necessity does not exist today it will not exist after the pasasge of this bill.” “Will the gentleman pardon just one more question on that point,” asked Mr. of Maine. “I understood him to say Sugar trust had already imported $100,000,000 worth of sugar. If so, inasmuch as onl $104,000,000 worth of ugar was imported last’ year, will not all the revenue we got from sugar under the operation of this bill for the first year be missing?" “I did not intend to give the figures that $100,000,000 of raw sugar had been imported.” replied 'Mr. Wilson, “I stated I had been informed the Sugar trust had imported about that a unt, and I have even heord it stated that it was iIn excess of that amcunt. It has been put at 448,000 tons by those who pretend to know." “Is it not true,” asked Mr. Heard of Mis- sourl, “that whatever may be this bonus to the Sugar trust in view of the passage of this law, would not the trust reap a still larger bonus under. the cperation of the Mc- Kinley law if fhat,\vere still left in force?” “They woul] not do so immediately, but under the opsgation of that law from year to year they Would certainly reap a larger sum. Mr. Speaker, ‘fii answer to all of these questions, I have simply to say that under the rule just adopied by the house imme- diately following the passing of this bill, w hope to present and; pass a bill putting sugar on the free list. (Applause on the demo- cratic side.) The question is now raised as to whether this is a government of the American people for the American people, or a government of the Sugar trust for the benefit of the’Sugar trust. And this house will show the people, I doubt not, whit its position is on ;that \question, and the senate also will show,the people its position. “1 will reserve the residue of my time.” Mr. Wilson &poke but ten minutes at the opening of the debate. He then reserved the balance of his time, and Mr. Reed, tho leader of the opposition, took the floor. The gentleman fromi Maine aroused his followers to the highest pitch of enthusiasm. . REED EXPRESSES SYMPATHY. “Mr. Speaker, I am somewhat reluctant to address the ‘house, because my fezlings are divided between two emotions,” began Mr. Re:d. “One is an emotion of regret for the democratic party and for its position, and the other is a feeling of equal regret for the country and its position, too. So far as the gentleman from West Virginia is concerned ne AR that ot from and his compatriots, there is not the slightest | necessity of my cimmenting on the differ- ence between this scene of sorrow and the triumphal procession which carried him out of this house. (Laughter and applause on the republican side.) He is not so joyous now, laving been carried out in another branch and more effectually. (Renewed laughter.) “It is unfortunate for the gentleman from West Virginia that he and his compatriots have had to contend with gentlemen of so much more capacity and skill. Undoubtedly the house conferces meant well. Undoubt- edly their intentions were honorable, but they were no match for the gentlemen whom they met in the other branch. They were not so skillful as those men. Why, our con- ferees come back to us, gentlemen of the house, without so much as the name of the bill they transported across the building a month ago. It wil be known in history as the Gorman-Brice, vice the Wilson bill, dead —(laughter and ,applause on the republican side)—and not dead on the field of honor, either. (Renewed laughter and applause.) “The gentloman from West Virginia and his compatriots appear before us now, not as the triumphal reformers marching to glory at the sound of their own sweet voices. They are littie babes in the woods, and it will be found pretty soon that they were left there by their uncle in the whito hous: (great laughter and applause on the repub- lican side), and I can hear the coming of the pinfons of the little birds bearing the ballots that are to bury them out of sight (Laughter from the republican side.) But their fate is of small conscquence. Their disappearance is the least of this event. I told this house, speaking on this tariff ques- tion, that one of the great misfortunes of this attempted action would be the fact whatever basis was reached, it would not be permanent basis on which this country could do business; that it was only an_ ef- fort on their part to do something, an effort which they were going to continué, and the gentleman from West Virginia (Mr. Wilson) sigralizes his departure from history by talking about this being a step in the on- ward march. HAS SUFFERED ENOUGH not even confent with this senate bill, not even content’ with what attacks it males upon their: industries, these men at the moment when ‘they feel their personal discredit by submitting the bill, announce to us that it is only. the herald of future at- tacks upon the bukifiess industries of this country.

McMillen of Tenn followed He began by recalling in conn with Mr. Reed's prophecy of political aster to the democrats of the hous overthrow of the republicans after the of the nley bill in 1890, After criticising Mr. Reed for not issing the question at issue, he proceeded to point out > features of the senate bill lumber, free hemp, etc., and the in the general schedules. The in the chemical schedule of the sennte also, if adopted, were reduced from 30 nt to 24 por cent; earth and earthen om 51 per cent to 35 per cent; me metal manufactures from 58 to 46 per wood and wood manufactures from 31 tobaceo, 117 to 105; cotton, 65 to 43 mp and jute, 45 to 41; wool and 8 to 48; silk and silk manufactures, to 46; pulp and paper, 23 to 20; sun dries, from 26 to 24; total reduction, from 68 per cent to 38 per cent. Mr. MeMillin eulogized other features, including extensions of the freo list, and especially the principle involved in the income tax provision, which not what people consumed, but what hiad Bur S Mr Reed Mr tion dis the pa wool iction: bill per ware and cent; to 23; flax, woolens chair had In sws of Michigan man of the ways and means been deserted by his party semi-humorous manner ne quoted from Wilson's speech when the bill passed house. ““That was when he was lash- you cowardly laggards into line said Burrows, turning to the democratic side. w the chairman of the committee leads the retreat and asks you to adopt the which gives public devotion to the monstrous trust in this country.” Friday last, Mr. Burrows declared, was a remarkable day in the history of the bill The house was firm that morning. But that afternoon, when Mr. Vest in the senate threatened to turn on the calcium light and e the crets of the conference, what would, the democrats of the house I fallen to their knees (democratic jeers) The democratic exccutive, theretofore firm, was quict and yielding when he heard that hreat. So a cancus met and all was aban- doned. It was not a compromise, it was un- conditional surrender. In view of what the president had said of the bill, in view of the rumors that would ching to it forever, the president would belie his character if he did not return it with all his scorn and contempt and the interrogatory: “Is th servant a dog that he should do this thing? (Republican applause.) WILSON YIELDED TO Mr. Wilson then yielded a few minutes to Mr. Pence of Colorado, the leader of the populists, who said the populists had thought and thought still the contest over the tariff between the t old parties was a good deal of a mock con- flict and a sham battle. He was convinced this was true when he saw the mock fury of Mr. Burrows. Like Mr. Burrows, how- ever, he confessed he did not know what thie president would do. Nor did any one else less,” he added, as he looked up Tracey of York in the you, Mr. Speaker.” Th lly at Mr. Tracey's expense brought down a storm of applause. Mr. Pence quickly apologized to the chair and said amid renewed Inughter he thought the member in chair was the new mouthplece of the administration (Mr. Strauss of New York). Any measure was a measure for the relief of the masses, Mr. Pence proceeded, if it pealed the McKinley law. In conclusion paid a glowing tribute to Mr. Wilson. Mr. Cockran of New York w given the closest attention by the expectant galleries and was at times enthusiastically applauded from either side of the chamber as his sledge hammer blows were dealt at the McKinley law or the senate bill. Mr. Cockran was deeply in carnest and his protest against the consummation of this tariff lcgislation recalled his famous speech of protest Chicago convention. Mr. Cockran said: COCKRAN 1S BITTER. it seems to me that the question before this house has been some- what overlooked. The vital point at issue is whether the American congress is to legis- late, or whether some unknown, unmen- tioned force can block the wheels of legisla- tion and make the representatives of the people cower in the dust and surrender they know not to whom. (Loud applause.) On a momentous occasion the gentleman from West Virginia, borne upon affectionate and loyal shoulders, which evidenced the depth of feeling throughout the American people, pentup, at last fondly considered themselves triumphant over all obstructions. Today no more pathetic figure in the history of the world can be observed than that same leader, of his support, walking down the Qisdaining to prevaricate or misrepre- sent the actual condition which confronts us, that he has been descrted by those in whose support he had every reason to confide, asks us to record our betrayal of every principle which the house under his leadership has maintained. “We are told that three, four, five, six, seven or cight individuals have managed to make such a combination in the other branch that any change in its terms will be fatal to the passage of the measure. If that is so, in the name of the American peo- ple, in the name of liberty and honor, let us know who they are. (Applause on’ the republican side and in the gallery.) “We are hopelessly discredited because our cowardic: makes our surrender disg fu Mr. Speaker, I desire to state here that in my humble judgment the measure which we are now asked to pass is a more ob- noxious protective measura than the Me- sald the committee assoclates. ing M mogt PENCE. aw Mr. “it s na chair, he ““Mr. Speaker, tree | als | bill | Orisp sald, osition clos Mr. said TOUCHED UP COCKRAN.

There was hearty republican applause at the announcement of Mr. Tarsney, which was the more significant in view of his mem bership on the ways and means committee Mr. Johinson of Ohio sald he was grieved to part company with his democratic colleagues on the floor. But he did not believe the cor cessions made were necessary to the vote of the senate. Thi was not the best that could have been secured. The house had tngloriously surreadered.

Mr. Price of Louisiana said he would ask for consideration, even for pity, at this lato day for 200,000 agriculturists threatened with destruction. If duties could not be retained he asked at least to leave the bounty this year. Mr. Boatner of Louislana said the bounty was a legal obligation for this year. Mr. Reed of Maine spoke of the bill as the last of their cushions the statesmen of this little kingdom of Liliputs had arranged for themselves to fall on and reminded Louisiana that the republican party would have given them the protection they necded, and asserted the democrats had so beclouded the question with corruption that it could not be dealt with honestly by others without incurring suspicion. It was the one great question to be made a shuttlecock between the two parties. Mr. Wilson concluded the discussion, charg- ing the republican party was responsible for the creation of the Sugar trust and the power it had manifested in this contest. He ex pressed sympathy for the Louisiana men, saying he had always believed in a revenu taX on sugar, that the agriculturisi® were welcome to the incidental protection there- for and he stood ready to co-operate with his colleagues in gIVing a revenue tux The yeas and nays were then ordered, the republicans Joining with the democrats fn voting for the free sugar bill.
