Shannons' Lambs took after that Wlscon-
nln hoodoo yesterday afternoon nnd chased
him Into his hole.
May Iho good Lord keep him thero.
Just think of It It was our first gnmo from
Milwaukee for over a year. So there Is
ample cause for Jubilation.
It was n perfect day for ball playing. The
atmosphere was Just right , and a thin gauzy
curtain tempered the rays of the sun Just
enough to make the light nil right.
And maybe the Omahas didn't play ball.
Ask any ono of the thousand cranks who saw
thorn , nnd they will express the whole story
in the monosyllable :
"Great , "
Probably many moons will wax nnd won
ore such another brilliant contest is seen nt
McCormlck park.
The old chestnut , "short , sharp nnd deci
sive , " chronicles the character of the event.
Dad Clarke was In the box for the Lambs ,
nnd oh my 1 oh mo I how that boy did shoot
mid curl 'cm over the pinto.
At no stage of the eatyclasui wore the
Brewers enabled to do business with him.
He was simply Invulnerable.
In nine lovely Innings they wuro allowed
only 0110 solitary llttlo hit , a semi-scratch In
thu last inning by that prince of gentlemanly
fellows nnd great ball players , Abnor Dai
ry mplo.
Dad Just toyed with thorn as a cat docs
wltn a mouse , nnd the ovation ho received
from his hosts of old friends was worth hun
dreds of dollars to him.
The score was-I to 1 , with Omaha on top ,
and of course everybody was happy.
The Brewers were on hand as larpo as llfo ,
but some how they got lost In the shufllo.
When they were not engaged in chasing two-
sackers , singles and other curious things
over the velvety outfield , they were banging
the -.vlnd or making frantic efforts to com
prehend dish's signs from the bouch.
But it was no uso. The hand of the old
man was upon them , and when the game
closed but one of the graybacks had skated
round the circuit and ho wasn't to blame for
that.
that.Dad's
Dad's ' girl was either in the grand stand or
ho had the left hind foot of a Jack rabbit
in his vest pocket , ono or the other ,
for under no other circumstances
could ho have curled them 'round
the ncclts of Schoch's men llko ho did. Ho
gave them all paresis.
But read the legend.
Larry Twitchcll was the first man at bat
for n change , but he only hit a llttlo ono to
Smith and was thrown out at first. Halligan
his li.isa on halls , but was forced at sec
end by out cy. Then Aiccauicy got tils base
on four wild onosnot until Sut , however , had
Stolen .second.
What ) It's a fact stole It Just as easy as
the Itch.
For some reason or other that made every
body laugh , but Mr. Uungan from California.
Ho got mad cifough to have bitten a nail iu
two.
two.But
But all this good luck was resultant in only
n geese egg , after all. for Dad Clarke stepped
up at this momentous juncture nnd gave
space three fearful body blows , and the side
was" out
Everything quiet in the stands.
The 'Brewers came in like a lot of school
girls going to n picnic , and when Burke
Htoppcd to the plato the nudlciico held its
breath. Ho bit to Walsh and of course
Walsh slammed him out at first. Then Mr.
Petit , who looks something like a Kansas
grasshopper dressed in boys' clothes , came
mincing forth and the wise ones In the grand
stand said , "watch him break Dad's ' heart. "
But ho didn't , although ho got to first on
Dad's error. The llttlo Brewer hit a hard
ono to thu pitcher , who half stopped it with
ono hand ny Jumping in the air , nnd the
sphere collected off toward Jimmy Donnelly ,
but not fast enough to enable. Jimmy to put
Petit out. Petit immediately stole second
nnd a moment later tiehocli took his base on
balls. Clarke then made n wild pitch which
lot Schoch to third and Bobby across the
plato.
But that was the only run they got during
the whole game nnd nobody is going tomourn
over that. Dalrymplo went out from Shan
non to McCauley and Dungan , after reach
ing first on balls , also was caught trying to
steal second.
In the second inning Sandy Griflln reached
first by reason of nn error by Campion , big
enough to stand alone , nnd just hero Man
ager Dan came along with ono of these old
11 mo trisockors that makes the crank push
out his chest and Imagine that ho owns the
uarih. You ought to have neard the glad
hey 1 hey ! hoys 1 of the pcoplo as Griffin tied
the scoro.
It sounded llko 1SSO again.
And more so when Danny came waltzing
homo on Walsh's beautiful sacrillco way out
to Burko.
Donnelly quickly filed out to Petit , but
Twitchell got his base. Mr. Smith ( late of
Toledo ) refusing to place the ball within
reach of his wagon shaft. Tlalllgan followed
with n beauty to loft , but was thrown out
endeavoring to purloin second.
But wo were ahead something wo hadn't
been , of Milwaukee , anyway fora longyear ,
nnd the grandstand was In nn uproar.
It was ono , two , three for the Hrowcrs ,
mid the crowd wcro fairly brimming over
with excitement.
In the third , after Big McCauley had perished -
ished at first , Clarke pushed out n safe ono ,
but was loft. Grltlln fiylng out at first , and
Shannon to Burko.
Again It was three nnd out for the Brew
ers , and the grand stand clapped and shouted
until It was hoarse.
It was so nice to see these big Milwau-
koans dropping by the roadside like so many
chickens with the cholera.
The fourth and fifth wcro blanks for both
Hides , the fourth being marked by a orllllant
catch by Joe Walsh , anil the fifth by a simi
lar feat by Potit.
Griffin opened up the sixth by taking his
base on balls , nnd on Shannon's nlco llttlo
bunted sacrifice ho was moved along to sec
ond.
ond.That
That was pretty work and the fans cried
hoi hoi hoi
You see , they smelled another tally.
And sum enough. It came in the very next
moment , when Walsh Incod out a safe ono to
right.
The way the spectators greeted this
achievement made the Wisconsomuns vorv
tired.
But to rub It In , Jimmy Donnelly smote
another just llko It , only Jimmy's went into
the opposite garden. This sent Joe to third ,
nml on a second very canary error by Mr.
Campion ho run homo.
It was tough on Cush nnd his gang , but
the crowd yelled with fiendish delight all
the same.
Twiti'holl and Ilalllgan then ended thu
inning , fiylng out to Campion In quick suc
cession.
Well , what's the use of stringing this af-
lair out any longer } There were no runs 1
made on olthor side , and ttiu Brewers had
up to the ninth , failed to touch Clarka will 1
anything llko n hit.
How nlco It would have been could ho have
shut thorn out , but the victory w.is big
enough ns It was.
The close was a fitting ono to a gixMt nnd
glorious content , and is well worth tlu
telling.
After Schoch had filed out to Walsh
Dalrymplo hit safe to short rlgh
field and stele second , Then Cam
plon hit a long ono to Hulllgun ,
mid Ilnlllgan took It to his bosom and then ,
by ono of the prettiest throws you uvnr saw
doubled the llontfootcd Abnor up nt third.
It was nn extraordinary play and was vo
ciferously applauded.
And no ttio Brewers are ours at lost. G
out this afternoon and see tbo Lambs
do it some more ,
The score !

LINCOLNNob. , . , April -Special [ to Tim
Bii.l : Harrington's hired men got another
game from the Fanners this afternoon , simply
because Darnbrough was wilder than Kille'n
and Duke combined. In the first inning
Carnbrotlgh gave out four bases on balls , hit
ono man with the ball , and made a wild
pitch , ou nil of which the Millers accumu
lated throe runs. Later iu the game D.irn-
brough showed up in bettor form , but the
Kiimo was lost lu the llrst. The homo team
played a steady uphill game , but could not
catch the Minneapolis outfit. The game was
marked by sharp fielding and heavy hitting ,
In which both sides took active part. Killcn
pitched n good game up to the sixth inning ,
when Duke relieved him. Duke vorv nearly
duplicated Darnbrough's performance. In
the eighth ho executed a wild throw , which
gave Lincoln two runs and in the ninth ho lot
in miothcr on n wild i > itch. Attendance 1,1)00.

A couple of hundred of the fancy assembled
nt Kowloy's hall , South Omaha , last evening
to see Jim HIghtownr nnd liurnoy Taylor
scrap. They scrapped , but briolly. Illgh-
tower , who was to Knock his antagonist out
for the entire gate receipts in six rounds , did
the job in a llttlo loss than ono. In the lan
guage of the poet Barney wasn't in It. The
first dush out of tlio tex settled him. High-
tower caught him in the jaw and ho went
down llko n log. Ho was game , however ,
and struggled to his foot again , but again
that poor jaw caught it and again Barney
wont down.
At the call of time for the second round
Taylor failed to respond and Jack Davis , thu
referee , of course awarded the fight to High-
tower.

Cnr , Mo. , April 17. At the com
mercial congress today tlio unfinished pro
gramme ot j'ostcrdny was tnlton up , the sub
ject boliitf "Tnuisuortatlon mid Improvement
of Waterways , Lakes , Uulfs and 1'aclflu
Ports. "
S. A. Thompson , secretary of the com
mercial club of Dulutli , Minn , , advocated the
Improvement of .waterways as nfTordlntj tfco
cheapest transportation.
Colonel Cntchlngs of Mississippi argued
that the Increase in the water trnlllc , however -
over great , would not decrease the railroad
business , lint would rather Incioasu it.
.f. II. Murphy of Iowa spolto on the Henno-
pln ranal , Ho explained In n IOIIK speech the
boncllts whlcli would result from Its con
struction and said ho had no doubt It would
bo millt If the government could bo brought
to see Its Importance.
Colonel A. U. flsk of Denver delivered an
address on "Irrigation. " It was estimated
that tliero are 1.000,000 , sijuaro miles of
arid lands in the western country
that could bo niiido productive
by Irrigation. At the minimum
price of Dtibllc lands , 1.25 per acre , this land
had a value of ? sOl > , Oil.UJl ) . At $ . ' ) ! ) per aero ,
a moderate estimate of value when irrigated ,
thny would bo worth SllVJOO.OUO.uou. If
those lands wcro properly provided with
water oi.e could scarcely contenipluUi what
nn empire of population nnd wealth they
would contain. It was said the people of the
regions that desire irrigation should provldo
It themselves.Vithont agriculture the
lands would novar ho settled and there would
bo no pcoplo to provide Irrigation. The pov-
ornmcnt should start the work.
Mr. WIekliiro of New Orleans spoke upon
"Iinmlgrnilou and Settlement of Vacant
Lands" from an extract from "America for
Americans. " Ho had been told , ho said ,
that this laud is Dread onouirh for all , but ho
submitted that the old world has made it the
dumping ground for paupers and the criminal
clnssqs , nml ho believed ho spoUo for the
whole American people when ho said the
time haa come that it must stop. There Is
enough room for all who want to como hero
to bo of use , but not a foot of ground for ono
of these j > aupors and criminals of the old
world , "f may foci deeply upon tlio sub
ject , " added Wickliffe , "but 1 have lately
como from a most terrible object lesson ,
which clearly Indicates the need of o change
of our immigration laws. " Ho argued for
vigorous action by the national congress.
The majority report of the committee on
resolutions , made today , favors free coinage
of silver and the issuance of u suHlclont
amount of legal ttitider notes , redeemable In
both gold nnd silver , to restore the equili
brium between money and all other products ;
a tariff for revenue only ; that the interstate
eommorco of the country should bo controlled
by the general government ; favors the im
provement of the Mississippi river ; con
struction of the Henneplu canal and other
waterways by the government ; equalization
of taxation ; a national bankrupt law ; suppres
sion of trusts and combines ; amendment of
the Immigration laws ; restoration of railroad
land grants to the public domain and the
opening of surplus lands to settlement ;
reclamation of arid hinds ; enactment of laws
to prevent dealing in futures , and
commends the secretary of iigrhmltnro
for his efforts toward removing the re
strictions of our ; foreign ameat trade ,
endorses a deep water harbor at Ualvcston ;
favors the construction of a ship canal con
necting the northern1 lakes with the Atlantic
ocean ; declares it the Judgment of the congress -
gross that the .Mississippi rivomicau and
should bo made navigable for ocean steamers
for n considerable , < < fctanco above .Now Or
leans , and recommends the construction of
lovcos from St. Paul to the gulf : recom
mends n system of canals nnd slack water
navigation to coniiect the water of the Ten
nessee with the Gulf of Mexico ; also a ship
canal from the headwaters of the Ohio to Lake
Erie and from Luke Superior to the Miss
issippi river ; favors the construction
or the Nicaragua canal ns a utsunctiy Amer
ican work under American control ; favors
the prohibition of non-resident alien owner
ship of lands ; recommends the admission of
Now Mexico and Arizona to the union. In
conclusion the report hails with delight tlio
spirit ot fraternity displayed by the delegates
in attendance.
The minority report was identical except
in regard to silver and the tariff.
The free coinage and tariff resolutions of
both reports wcro received with applause , as
was also that relative to the immigration
law.
law.A
A resolution , which was hailed with de
light the burial of all animosities between
the north and south received tremendous
upplauso , and , upon motion of Major Warner
of Missouri was given three hearty cheers.
K. V. Smalloy spoke for the minority silver
resolution , General Warner of Ohio replying.
The silver clause of the minority report was
then voted do-vn.
The minority tariff resolutions wore then
taken up and Smallov presented the min
ority's case. Ho said there had been too
much politics In the committee.V hen ho
accepted the chairmanship ho did not expect
the democrats would crowd their party plat
form down his throat. Ho claimed by In
ference , that the convention had been packed
In the interest of the democrat party and that
the congress was really being hold for the
purpose of welding together the democrats
and the farmer's alliance.
Speaker Nlblock of the Indiana legislature ,
dented that , tl.oro had boon partisan discus
sion In the committee , and Congressman-elect
Uryan of Nebraska wanted the congress to
tmvo the courage of its convictions. Tun
debate was participated in by many others
nnd became very acrimonious.
Finally Uenoral Warner of Ohio submit
ted the following ns a substitute for the trirllt
resolutions of both reports : "Wo favor
neither free trade nor exclusion of trade , but
favor a tariff for revenue limited to the
actual needs of the government , economically
administered , but so levied a-i to cover the
differences in industrial conditions between
this nnd othorcountrios , but not to create
and foster monopolies. "
After a long debate President Francis
ruled the resolution out of order.
Ortdloy of Minnesota then offered n substi
tute for the minority , similar to Warners
nnd It was adopted.
Debate on the minority report as n whole
was begun and thq discussion again assumed
a violent form. i
A minority member of the comr.ilttco
charged the congrds.vwllh being nothing but
u democratic convention ,
The charges cauiod a great tumult. Fin
ally the roprosontativijs of the business union
of St. Paul wltlutrqr ( Irom the convention.
The minority report was then voted down.
A minority ropdrUhy a Caliiornln delegate
also failed. It was : 't "Wo object to thu free
coinage of silver on the ground that the tax
payers of the UnltbiKiStatos nro now buying
nil of the silver output at about U7 cents per
ounce , whereas it , Is planned that frco coinage
will raise the pnoo to ? I.S'J ' per ounce. Wo
see no use of tudltaxpayors advancing tno
price of nn article Kf nlust themselves for the
bouclltof thofow"llhkt own the silver. Wo
recommend the ptl'rchaso of the silver output
of the United Slatua for money use at the
lowest bidder's pric < v Just ns the government
now buys any otHt/r'imlclo / ' It nocds. "
Consideration of the majority report was
proceeded with and the debate again became
intensely partisan and heated.
Finally a vote was taken by a call of the
states on the adoption of the majority report ,
nnd it was adopted M to 55 all of the stnto
delegations being divided upon the question.
The resolutions as a whole wore thou
adopted.
Smalloy ot Minnesota then said ns the
congress had degenerated into n democratic
pow-wow ho desired , ns a non-partisan dele
gate , to resign as chairman of tlio committoa
on resolutions.
Then a great dlsturbanco arose , the air
being rent with hisses and groans , mingled
with cheers and applause. Smalloy's oppon
ents attempted to howl him down , but ho
stood his ground until ho had finished his
say ,
A resolution by Ilrynn of Nebraska was
adopted urging congress to pass a law
maklut" all legal money log.il teudur , not
withstanding any contracts which tiny call
for the discharge of an obligation by tlio pay
ment of gold ,
Other resolutions wore adopted , endorsing
the world's fair , endorsing the Torroy hank-
ruptey bill mid making the congress a purma-
ncnt organization to meet biennially.
The congress then , nt Ulft : p. in. , adjourned
to meet nt thu call of the executive com

Decision A 'tln ' t ' ! \ - { % lsU'r .louea
ol'tlic Xcllnli Imtul Ollluo.
\VASIIINOTO.V , April 17. [ Special Tele
gram to Tin : ] ) m : . | Assistant Secretary
Chandler of the Interior department today
affirmed the decision of the commissioner of
the general land ollleo In the appeal of C. C.
Jones , ox-rosglMcr of the United State * laud
oftlco at Notlgh , Neb. , from the action of the
commissioner on February 5,1800 , requiring
him to render un account for fcoi collected on
Omaha Indian declaratory statements Illod
In December , ISS',1. It appears that Register
Jones transmitted to the commissioner's
oflleo his account current nnd fco statement
for December , IbSP , as also his account of sal
aries and commission for the quarter ending
December Jl , 18SU , which wore returned to
ilm with tlio statement that no re
ported llfty-two llllngs on Omatm
Indian lands , but did not report any fcon
thereon , and furthermore required him to
correct his statement and report the proper
amount received In such corrected statement.
From this action Jones appealed on the
ground that under the act or August 7 , IKSJ ,
( ' 'J It. S. 'Ill ) the local oniceiy nro entitled to
the fees collected In said cases. This act
provides for the sale of n part ot the Omalm
Indian reservation in Nebraska and pro
scribes the manner such sale shall bo made ,
viz : that In addition to the purchasu
each purchaser of said Omaha lands
shall pay $2 , the same to bo
retained by the receiver and register of the
land oflico at Noligh as their fees for services
rendered. The net of August , 18M1 , (24 ( K.
H. 2i'.i : ) regulating the salaries of rogNtors
and receivers , provides that nil foe collected
from any souivo whatever increasing their
salaries beyond $1,000 cacti year shall bo cov
ered Into the treasury except only so much
ns may bo necessary to pay the actual i-ost of
clerical services employed exclusively in con
tested cases. The assistant secretary of the
Interior decides : "H was evidently the In
tention of congress to restrict the
salaries of local ofllccrs to the maxi
mum of 1.000 , and to require tnat
all fees received in excess thereof from any
and all sources bo turned into the treasury.
The act of May lf > , Is-i * . for the relief of the
Omaha Indians , and extending the time of
payment to purchasers of the lands , does not ,
In my opinion , oper.ito in any manner to effect
the case. The tilings upon which appellant
excepts to the ruling laid down by the com
missioner's rule.s are concerned , not unlike
other filings , and therefore como in the pur-
vlow of the acts of iMiii and 1S ( > 7. "
The finding of the commissioner of the gen
eral lanu ollleo having been nfllrmcJ above ,
cx-Hogistcr Jones Is ordered to remit the fees
collected.
The assistant secretary reverses the com
missioner's decision , holding for cancellation
the homestead entry of the late A. Cunning
ham for lots U nnd t and the southwest half
of the northwest quarter of section 2 , town
ship 111 , range 71 , Huron , S. D. , district.

NP.W VOIIK , April 10. ( Special Telegram -
to Tin : Bm-R. : | G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review -
view of trade saysi
With belter weather there Is n visible Im
provement In trade nnd collections , and
while It Is hut slight as yet the outlook for
the future Is generally rog.-trdod as encourag
ing. The crop prospects continue excellent.
There Is less monetary pro.-.suront polnUs
where some stringency has existed , and in
the chief Industries there is some Improve
ment In the demand. Meanwhile thu voluma
of trade continues nearly as largo in aggre
gate value as it was n year ago , some do-
crcaso in the quantities of Important pro
ducts being balnncoti by an advance In the
level of pi-lens , which was nearly lii per cent
higher than a year ago April 1 , nnd
Is still more than lit per cent higher.
The Iron trade shows it greater sltrinkago
than any other. There Is scon a somewhat
bettor demand for finished products , especi
ally for structural Iron and rails. Thu nu-
tliniclto coal trade still drags. The consump
tion of copper Is slow , ami tin is a quartet
weak , with load dull.
The spinners takings of cotton continue
slightly greater than n year uco with exports
very much larger. Wool is dull , mid until
the now clip comes forward much activity Is
not to ho expected.
At Boston the demand for merchandise
generally has improved and the retail trade
has been quite heavy , lu nearly all trades
collections are slow. Some kinds of finished
Iron at Pittsburg aiv weaker , but glass is
unchanged. At Cleveland trade is generally
inactive , but good in groceries and hard
ware , nnd some Improvement is soon nt
Cincinnati , especially in groceries , and also
in general trade at Detroit. The sains
of dry goods nt Chicago fall
ti trillo below these of last
year and clothing Is quiet , but shoes active
and collections in all these trades good , The
receipts of lard mid butter show a slight do-
crcaso , and of dressed bouf nnd choose some
increase , with a considerable gain In wool.
At Omaha , St. Paul , Minneapolis nnd Den
ver trade Is fairly uood. The prices of lum
ber and Hour tire improving. Business is
dull at Kansas City nnd Memphis , but Im
proved at New Orleans and Atlanta.
In the speculative market there has been n
general advance In breadstuff's , hogs and
lard , n decline in oil , and no change In cotton
and coffeo. A larger export demand ,
anil reports of scarcity abroad , have
lifted wheat 2' ' . , cents to $1.101 , ' with sales of
-Ki.000,000 bushels hero. Oats has risen 3
cents in\\Vt ( \ \ ce.uts. and corn fi'i' ' coutii to
W'4 ? cents on small sales. The actual
scarcity of corn and oats makes an advance
easy , but of wticnt the receipts at western
points continue larger than a year ago , and
the exports , until very lately , tiavo been
much smaller. It is noteworthy that in all
winter wheat sections the wheat is con
sidered exceptionally good mid the average is
reported as largely Increased.
Raw suL'ar has yielded a shade this week ,
but all rollnod above granulated Is a shade
higher. With breadstuffs and vegetable *
unusually high and wool about the same as n
year ago. Cotton Is much lower.
Drugs and chemicals are lower.
Iron and its products nnd the range of
manufactured products are generally rather
lower , notwithstanding the expansion of
more ttinn $90,000,000 In the circulation dur
ing the year. The treasury has again paid
out this week more money than It has taken
in. The exports of , inqrchaudlse are increasing - ,
ing and for two weeks at Now York exceed
last year's by IS percent. In March the
exports of cotton , brcadstuffs , provisions ,
cattle nnd petroleum from all the
chief ports wcro in vatuo $ . " > ' ) ,490.fii7 ; ,
against $ .VJ.7tiO,2li'J last year , Indicating
no increase in the necrcgat" of ex
