(From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. ll.-Fpeclal Telegram.l A bombshell was hurled tonight Into tho camp of the Western bare ball league, the director of which organltntlon had gth crcd In Lincoln to hold their annual meet Inn tomorrow, In the shape of an Injunc tion sued out by George Tcbeau, owner and manager of the Louisville club In the American association, restraining the league directors from meeting unless the com plainant, Tebeau, Is permitted to partici pate In the deliberations and Is recognlied as a lawful member of the league. The injunction was granted by Judge Holmes of the district court of Lancaster county and the order of the court announcing that a restraining writ had been granted and that a date for a hearing as to the facts had been fixed for January 18 was served upon President Sexton and his associates In the league tonight at their hotel. In his petition Tebeau alleges that he is still the lawful owner of the Denver fran chise and that he Is also Interested In the franchise at Kansas City. He avers that in 1901 he was granted a franchise at Denver for a period of four years and that he has ever relinquished his claim to hla holdings in the Colorado metropolis and that the claim of D. C. Packard as owner of the eague rights there la fraudulent and that the recognition by the league of Packard's lalms is unlawful and unjust. Tcbeau avers that the treasurer of the league is holding money belonging to him by virtue of his right to a share in the annual dis tribution of the profits, the same having accumulated during the last three years, nd he demands a full accounting with the league of such funds. President Sexton and his conferees were taken completely by surprise by the Tebeau ult, although they admitted that they had anticipated Tebeau would take some plan to harrass them In their Intended delibera tions. Tonight President Sexton said: "The league most certainly will not meet with Tebeau, who Is not now and has not been for over two years a member of the eague. His holdings in Denver were law fully transferred to Mr. Packard, as can be easily proven In court. As to Kansas City, Tebeau voluntarily resigned his in terests there when he went to Louisville nd the minutes of the league meeting will how that such is the case. Tebeau has taken this course In order to frighten us out of Kansas City, but we will not, under any circumstances, get out of that city unless our property there Is purchased by Tebeau and the American association at a reasonable price. We will consult legal counsel the first thing in the morning, but I doubt very much If we will try to meet tomorrow. Just now I have nothing more to say."

ADDRESS REFERS TO STATE ISSUES Ten Thousand People Take Part la Parade Which Follows Inaugural Address Reception Will Be Held Tonight. COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 11. The inaugura tion of Colonel Myron T. Herrlck today was witnessed by an unusual number of people, Including many strangers. Shortly before noon Governor Nash and tho Joint execu tive committee, with Troop A of Cleve land, of which tho new governor was for merly a member, escorted Colonel Herrlck to tho state capltol, where he took the oaUi of office. After being congratulated by former Governor Nash and the chief Justice Gov ernor Herrlck delivered his Inaugural ad dress to a' lnrge assemblage. uovernor Herrlck said in part: The affairs n f a Cr.i u t .lut. ,nnh aa mia should bo conducted with the same care tnd prudence that a careful man of busi ness would exercise in tho management of kis own property. When man in business bus funus on hand i-.e finds a sate and profitable Investment for the samn, that iucy may not ue idle and unproductive. rrom time to Minn the nhita ,t lihui ham J" its treasury large balances of money.

Under the provisions of the national banking law frequent examinations are made by competent examiners of the condi tion and soundness of banks established under the laws of the United States. These examinations, after a trial of forty years, seem to Justify tills method of gov ernmental supervision over banking insti tutions. Unfortunately Institutions estab lished under the laws of the state of Ohio for banking purposes have in some in stances met with disastrous failure, which might have been prevented and the public warned If a similar system should be ts Ubllxhed for them. In this connection I recommend either the establishment of a state bunking department or an enlarging f the powers of the state auditor, so hai all hanking and trust companies incor porated under our state laws shall be Kiib jected to thorough and confidential exam ination, to the end of affording protection alike to depositor and stockholder. He recommended a revision of the laws roverning primaries and elections and the codifying of all statutes In connection therewith. He urged needed amendments to existing school laws; recommended ad ditional appropriations for Ohla exhibits at the St. Louis exposition; called atten tion to the benefits to be derived In replac ing to some extent at least the forests which have disappeared from tho state. In closing Governor Herrlck said: I ssk your hearty co-operation and as Flstance In the labors before me. 1 desire to cotigratulato our state upon the splendid administration of Governor Nash, who has served the state as a good and faithful servant. At the conclusion of the address Governor Herrick, accompanied by former Governor Nash and the state officials, took their place in the inaugural parade, which moved through the principal streets.
