Who would have thought that the nine
ball players who fairly pounded the leaders
Into the earth during nine long Innings
7eatorday were the name Identical persons
who lay down supinely under the blows of
the last In the race but a day or two before -
fore ? They wore , but they didn't look It.
Mr. Andrews officiated In the box for the
visitors , and the Omaha sluggers starlcd
right off by. hitting his slants In the nose
and they kept It up all through the game.
Twenty hits with a total of thlrty-threo bases
was what they dealt out , with a reserve
of eight bases on balls to 'help the good work
along.
On the other hand , Whltchlll wanted to
duplicate the achievements of his new run
ning mate on the preceding day , and he
came very near doing It. Sage's two lucky
homo run hits were all that saved the
visitors from being shut out , and there was
no tlmo when they were In the game. It
was simply a slaughter and they had to take
their medicine like Illtlo men.
Ulrlch began the fireworks with a two-
bagger , and Langsford followed with a nlco
single. lloth men scored on an error by
Krolg and'Moran's single , while the visitors
were unable to get a start.
In the third and seventh Innings occurred
the lambasllnga which made Ihe victory so
decisive , the two Innings being productive
of sixteen runs. Man after man walked up
and smashed Mr. Andrews' push-overs safely ,
and Fear and Seery both relieved their feel
ings by homo runs.
The Twin Cities failed to score until the
sixth , when Zcls hit safely and Katz drew
the only base on balls that Whltehlll al
lowed. AIox fanned Krelg out , and Cantll-
llon forced Katz out at second. Then Sago
caught ono on the nose and propelled It over
the barn , and three earned runs walked over
the plate. Lynch ended It by striking out.
Cantllllon led oft with a single In the
ninth and scored on Sage's second homer.
This was the best they could do , and Papa
chalked down the game In his diary with a
memorandum to the effect that they would
make It three straight today. Score :
OMAHA.

Andy today. It was close up till the
seventh Inning , when McDougiil was hit

took little Interest In the result. Barnes'
masterly pitching was the feature of the

CHICAGO , Aug. 21-Allx today trotted In
2:0."i : ' , i nt Washington park , nnd the cxhlbl
lion was pronounced by nearly all the horse
men present to be the greatest over made
In the sulky. It reduced the track record o
2 : < XHi. held by Nancy Hanks , and while I
fell a second nnd a quarter short of Hit
world's record , was really a belter perform
ance , conditions considered. The Washing
ton park track Is at least a secom' and a
half slow. It has not been BO fast aa form
erly since the new loam was placed on It
before the June running meeting , and Is In
need of a good , hard rain. AH the- drivers
agree that the track Is slow. John Kelly
who handled Dlrcctum last year , said
"This Is the greatesl mile ever trotted. Hiu
Allx been pent against the record last week
at Terre Hautn nhoould have undoubtedly
beaten It. " McDowell- who handled Allx
today , said tlio track was two seconds
slow at the smallest estimate.
The event was not called until 5:30 : o'clock
Although the wind was not high , the at
mosphere was cool and far from rccon'
breaking. Allx scored twice and then was
sent nway. The Oral quarler wn.s made In
0:311,1' : . She ; scurried on to the half In 1:0.1'4. :
There McDowell let her out n little nnd the
running mate joined her. . She went to the

The attnndance was 5,000. A great field np

was substituted for Thaycr behind Doug

Into the fpnco. causing him to fall , yet
Sells got the Chicago horse on his feet nnd
Kaved his distance. There was a loud pro

was Intentional , but the judges decided
otherwise. Douglass won this , heal and

H v
The grounds oV'the ' tennis club presented
an animated appearance yesterday morning ,
the second day of the Interstate tournament ,
all flvo of the courts being occupied. This
was true throughout tlie day , and the man
agement Is to bo congratulated that so little
delay has existed .In starting and running
the games. Yesterday's games brought out
some clever tennis playing , and the fact
Is surely becoming evident that this city has
some very good players. There have been
doubters ot this , but the way they meet nnd
down crack players from outside the city and
state Is manifest proof of the fact.
Thrco matches In the doubles were played
yesterday , two of these being the scml-flnals ,
and also the preliminary and first rounds In
the singles. The lalter were hotter than
could have been expec'ed ' , whllo the former
were even betler than the doubles of the
preceding day.
Much had been said about the strong work
ot the Kansas City pair , but It was beaten
In the morning with comparative ease.
Hart and Young put up a very good game ,
the former's play being somewhat of a sur
prise. The Kansas City team , Whitman and
Emmert , was steady , but hardly as good as
expected. The former plays a very easy
game. Emmert plays a nice net game , but
from the back line he sent not a few balls
outside the court. Hart nnd Young seemed
to have very little difficulty In reaching
their balls , whllo both placed frequently out
of reach. A few rallies were sharp , but the
playing on the whole was not exceptional.
The score was 7-5 , 6-2 , C-3 ,
The match In singles between Austin nnd
Nicholson -was won by the former , G-l , 0-2 ,
3-0 , 0-2. Nicholson was evidently saving
himself for the doubles In the afternoon and
was willing to forfeit after the first two sets.
Austin , on the other hand , was as eager to
tire him out. Nicholson displayed good tennis
In his pickups nnd. his net play was also
very good. Austin's work consisted of long
back-arm strokes and lolis that kept his op
ponent moving continually.
Haverstlck beal Hamilton by the score of
C-3 , C-3 , C-2. The playing was not note
worthy.
Karquhar had no difficulty In downing
Crookwell to Uie tune of 6-1 , C-2 , G-l. Far-
fiuhar did not play an especially good game
and will have to show up much betler lo
reach the finals. Ho made no effort at plac
ing , and good net play could have stopped
many of his smashes.
CULLINGHAM1 BADLY OUT OK FORM.
In the afternoon at 2 o'clock Ihe singles
were continue * ] , y , .Culllngham played , bul
was easily downed iby Whitman In two sets
and defaulted tlio last. On account of his
Illness he Is entirely out of form. Whitman
Is a. very easy and graceful player , and Is
especially strong ( n his placing. Denlsc
and Dickey played a good game , the former
being the better and steadier player. The
rest of the singles were good games for the
opening rounds. - The results were as fol
lows : . i
Gullmette beat Chatelaine , G-0 , C-3 , fi-1
Battln beat Hopkins , G-l , G-4 , 6-2 ; Whitman
beat Culllngham , Ot-1 , C-2 , G-0 ; Denlse beat
Dickey , C-2 , G-4,1 GJ : Whitman beat Haver-
stick , G-l , C-3 , G-0 ; Young beat Emmert , G-3 ,
C-2 , G-l ; Hart/ beat Noteware , G-l , G-l , 5-7 ,
the remaining set to bo played this morning ;
Wilbur defaulted to Haskell.
When the Boml-flnals In Ihe doubles wore
called at 4 o'clock la fair crowd was In at
tendance , and were amply repaid. The
match between tlie Lemars team and Young
and Battln was' , undoubtedly the best over
seen In the city. Nicholson and Farquhar
form a team that'would be hard to beat.
Nicholson's net play was sometimes phe
nomenal. Of all the balls that ho rcaced
he returned all but one , and many of the re
turns were exceedingly well placed. His
short arm strokes and cross cuts were fine.
Battln played right In his hands , sending his
balls directly at the net , when It would have
been far better policy to lob. Farquhar's
play was as good , If not a trifle better , than
his partner's. He Is not as good a net
player , but his back line play Is better. Ho
made some beautiful returns of balls on
the sldo lines that were considered abso
lutely safe. Ills activity and strokes are
at times remarkable. Austin's play was also
very good , but his support was poor. The
Lemars players early divined the weakness ,
and sent their balls continually to Battln.
In placing his returns he showed very poor
judgment , sending them too often to the net ,
where they were Invariably killed by Nichol
son. Beside Individual play , the victory was
duo to team work. The winning two seemed
to always know their places and backed up
each other very well. The match was on the
whole very fine tennis , and Farquhar and
Nicholson richly deserved their victory. The
score was : G-3 , 7-5 , G-3.
Hart and Young defeated Hopkins and Me'
Clure by the score of G-l. G-2 , G-2.
PLAY FOR TODAY.
Today at 10 o'clock the second round In"
the singles will bo played. The schedule Is
as follows :
Townsend of Washington to play Broatch ;
Hart lo play Haskell ; Gullmelto to play
Rico ; Dcnlso to play Battln.
All the players have been showing up
very well and the matches will all be hotly
contested.
At 4 o'clock the finals In the doubles will
take place. The two teams are Farqtihar-
Nlcholsou and Young-Hart. At this stage
of the tournament the play Is bound to be
sharp and a good game can be looked for.
The following officers have been appointed :

nlghl nl 9 o'clock when lime was oallc <
i for the twenty-five round scientific glove
contc.sl between Stanton Abbott , champion
lightweight of England , and Jack Ever-
hart of this city , for a purse ot $1,500.
Abbotl commenced Ihe Ilghl by landing
a sharp body blow. Some heavy flKhllng
followed , Abboll doing Ihe belter billing.
The men clinched and breaking away , each
landed Ihe right. Abbott retired to his
corner with a mark on HIP lefl eye.
In the second round Everhnrt received
a left In the stomach. The Englishman
seemed to confine his fighting principally
to the body. Both landed blows on the
head. Abbott landed the loft on the face
and ran away. The Englishman scored
two left-handed blows.
The light continued with slight variation
to the eighth round , when Abbott , In a hot
rally in the center of the ring , apparently
had the best of It , frequently landing In
his opponent's face. In the ninth and
tenth there was some hot fighting , and In
the eleventh Abbott had much the best of
It , knocking Everhnrt down with a left In
the face. From this time up to the twen-

From Ihe twenty-second to the twenty-

NEW YORK , Aug. 21. Concerning the
race for the Futurity stakes which Is to be
run at Sheepshcad bay on Saturday , and
which Is worth $ GO,000 to the winner , Cen
taur , the Commercial Advertiser's turf writer ,
says :
The Qldnon & Daly candidates will bo at
Shoepshead today. It Is likely that Waltzer ,
Kccnan and the Uutlorflles will go to the
post. Martin will probably ride Keenan. and
Griffin will have the mount on Butterflies.
This filly has all her speed , and with Trainer
llyland's careful nursing may last long
enough to win the great prize for the dark
blue colors. If the race were run tomorrow
she would be an odds on favorite. The colt
Monaco has been doing well , which Is also
true ot Mr. Helmont's brother to Potomac ,
and McClolland'H Halma. By Thursday the
Futurity field will be pretty well known.
Counter Tenor Is doing work much after Ihe
fashion shown by him In Ihe spring. His
stable companion , Gotham , Is now at his
best , but Is not In the futurity. Mr. Rupert
will probably start Manchester as well as
Counter Tenor. Connolseur Is sure to give a
good account ot himself , and the Saratoga air
will be found to have benefited Pierre Lorll-

MINNKSHLO , S. D. , Aug. 21. ( Special to
The Deo. ) That the Wyoming & Dakota
Railroad company U going to build n road
from the coal fields Is now an assured thing ,
but whether It will connect with the Ulk-
horn or the II. & M. Is something that the
outsiders are unable to ascertain. About
soventy-nvo teams are at work on the line
surveyed from Mlnneselo. but they arc
working nenr the mines nnd not doing any
thing on this end to speak of. although the
main offices and Uie commissary are still
here. In conversation with General Mana
ger Nix nothing could bo learned regard
ing their Intentions , except thnt he had
started a new town nt the coal mines to bo
called Aladdin , which Is now being sur
veyed Into town lota. Nix said that the
erection of about eight or ton buildings
would commence this week , and It Is ex
pected that a great rush will bo made for
the ti'W mining camp.
The Elkhorn people have got surveyors up
In the coal mine country looking for a route ,
and have run n line along the same route
as the W. & D.tor a short distance. It Is under
stood that the Klkhorn wants the co.il road to
connect nt the Belle Fourcho river Instead
of at Mlnneselo. but It the W. & D. get their
grade from the mines to Hay Creek solid
they can then riln their line on Into Mlnne
solo without much Interference. Mr. Nl >
says that there Is hardly any doubt tha
the lilack Hills country will have a dlrcc
line to Chicago within the next year , and lu
says work will commence early next year

tKS MOINKS. AUK. 2l.-Spcrl.il ( Telegram
to The lie * . ) The hearing nn the appllca-
UOM nt the- trunk lines of. Iowa ( or nn iul-
v.ince In rates was begun at the ollloo of the
rultwny commissioners today at tha suite
houso. Alt the railways Intorontcd had ono
or inoro representatives present , nbout
twenty In ull. The shippers who ure resist
ing the advanca were represented by ox-
Hallway Commissioners V. T. Campbell and
Spencer Smith uiul Attorney K.irlo of Des
Muinca , ami n number from the outside wcro
present. Great Internal In thu result of the
hearing Is manifested by ( hi * ontlro com
mercial nitil business community of tlio
state. It Is conceded by all that tt critical
stage lias been reached In the history of
Iowa railway leelsbuion. The purpose of
the railroads I * suspected to be tlic gradual
approaches , n sort of sapping and mlmni ;
process , to got the maximum freight rates
for Iowa elevated to a point where they am
restore tlnv cheap long hunt rates , and thus
nil n jobbers mid shippers In Iowa by making
concessions to Chicago and other ( .astern
cities that will cnablo dealers to Invade the
territory tributary to lown Jobbers and
wslly undersell and drive out tlio latter.
The ball was started rolling by a motion
by Spencer Smith thai the railroads bo ro-
iiulrcd to submit n epcclllc proposition of
what they drain * In the \\ay of classifications
anil rates. In order that thu shippers and
pfoplo of Iowa might know just wlmt they
vere askfd to Kraut In the w.iy of rate con
cessions. This \Viis resisted by tlio railways ,
lint after ttomo discussion tlio motion of
Mr. Smith was sustiilurd. Mr. Itlpley said
that prior to 1SS7 peace had reigned between
the railways and tint shlppiTS. In ihc laltor
part of 18S7 congress passed thu interstate
commerce bill , which had wholly changed
the rt'l.itloiiH between tlio railways and the
shippers. The law creatul friction , which
has contlnueil to eauso trouble.
PLHADHD KOU TUB RAILROADS.
Ho denounccil the liw passed by llio
Twenty-sect ml general assembly aa the
worst law ever passed by any legislature In
any state. For live and a half years the
railroads have worlted under the rrtes es
tablished. The ralo was pobon. It had not
killed the roads , but had seriously embar
rassed them. The rates were alnut 30 per
runt higher prior to 1SS7. They arc from
20 to " 0 per cent lr.wer tlinn In any oilier
slite. The Iowa rate Is a standing menace
to the companies In other states. It bobs
up at the session of every legislature In tlio
other states , and the people of these states
are asking why the people ot Iowa should
enjoy lower rates than themselves Reduc
tions of rates In these states are only a
matter of time unless the Iowa commlss
can be induced to elevate the Iowa rates.
The feared reduction in other states lias
been staved elf much longer than Hie com
panies had expected. They asked for the
advanci ) upon the broad ground that tlio
railroad properties in the state were not
paying any Interest UIKII the Investment ,
and that unless the rcciie.stc.l | . Increase Is
granted the roads will suiter seriously In
the question of revenues.
Messrs. Campbell 'and Smith combatled
tlio claims of Klpluy , tin : former claiming
the roads did not take Judge Brewtjr's ad-
vlco and go Into court because they would
bo required to submit their books and prova
their claim. Mr. Smith still Insisted that ;
llio roads must present nn exact statement
of their desires , and Chairman Luke ruled
in his favor , Kiiggp&llng th'at something defi
nite could be prnp.itt'didurlnc ( lie noiri' re
cess , wliloh Mr. IllythB Dually consented lo
do. At the afternoon incet'iiR A. C. Bird
wiis on the stand for three hours. andt at
adjournment the heating was continued for
four weeks to give the shippers a chance to
produce evidence In opposition to the eleva
tion ot rates.
