At last St. Paul has broke her record and
won a game of ball on the Omaha grounds.
f They carried off the laurels In the final
struggle of the series yesterday afternoon ,
just as easy as rolling off a log.
+ \ But , strange to say , not ono of the largo
crowd who witnessed the defeat of our
Iambs felt the least bit sore over It. All
t , "were satlstied with Omaha's work , and con-
If oled themselves with the reduction that if
llf she can win three games out of every four
* to bo played with such teams as the St. Pauls
eho'll come pretty near capturing the ling
yet. So , Just by way of encouragement ,
they gave the boys a rousing cheer ns they
lugubriously left the scene of their over
throw.
The visitors played n mighty strong
. -gaino nnd a luck one , while Omuha's
play was line , too , but ns Dame
Fortune would have It , the boys forgot to
"don their Twttitig IOKS. They hit thu ball
"liard , but somehow or other it never failed
to go straight nt one of the hyperborean
galaxy.
Clarke pitched for the homo team nnd was
much moro vulnerable than usual. Kid
Sowdors rotated the sphere for the Aimstles ,
nnd ho rotated Just about according tolloyle ,
to boot.
1 The Omnhas went to the bat first of course ,
I i but failed to distinguish themselves. Burns ,
Annis find Crooks went out as fast ns they
r. COUld show U ] ) .
Then the Saints took their turn at the
stick nnd the result was three runs in n Jiffy.
As they loomed up on the blackboard they
looked big enough to work for n living.
First of all Murphy fastened onto a nice slice
of luck by getting his base on balls. Then
Carroll come up like a Jack-in-the-box and
* ' laced out a safe one over Cooncy's head. The
big Italian count , who guards first bag for
' St. Paul , and often reaches up and pulls a
safe hit out of tlio clouds , got n smash in the
back and the bases were full. Things began
„ to look decidedly rocky. It was Plokctt's
i-turn next and he banged the ball out to right
centre , nnd not only sent Murphy nnd Car
roll home , but the Cycloplan son of Italy to
third base. The next moment Morrlssoy slid
in homo on n passca ball , and actually the
nlr was sulphurlous [ for a moment. No glad
uhouts frightened the little English
nparrows from out among the rafters
of the grand stand as wns wont to bo
the case all was as funereal as the grave.
tTlio scoring stopped there for n time , as
Crooks throw Carlo out at first , Riley fanned
I out nnd Hroughton died ut Tcbuuu and
1 O'Connell's ' hands.
There wns no hubbub either In tlio second
When Omaha drew another blank. And so
. did the Apostles , although Corbott led of
1with 1 a hit.
Again In the third was It n "barren
Ideality" for Omaha , but the Esquimaux
i added another tally to their side of the score.
Plckctt , who hit the ball here , there and
everywhere , just like a boy knocking apples
' with a pole , nil the afternoon , started the in
nings by making his second safe hit. He
I reached second on a passed ball , and came
, Itouio on Earlo's out from Coouoy to P. O.
I Gracious , was Omaha to bo beaten In this
manner on their own grounds , and by the St.
Paul's at thati It couldn't bo.'and yet it was.
It was tliu same old thing In
f the fourth for our side , nnd moro
f , medicine from St. Paul In theirs.
f After Broughton had flycd out to Annis , Cor-
bett made a safe hit. Sowdcrs then drove a
hot ono ut Tobcau , nnd Patsy made a circus
stop , but throw badly to O'Conncll nnd the
ball went by him nnd over Into the bleach
ing boards. Of course , before it could bo
ilshcU out both men wcro homo. Carroll , too ,
in thu same Inning copped u beautiful three-
bagger , but was left.
Omaha mndu her only run In the sixth.
Burns lead off with a corker to left , nnd was
Immediately driven in by Annis , who made n
two-sucker. But that wns all that could bo
done. The succeeding batsmen wcro unable
( o gauge Sawders.
As neither fddo scored nftcr this there is
not much inducement to lengthen out this
roirort. You nil know that Omaha was
'beaten and that settles It. There wns noth
ing Inglorious about the defeat , und Just you
. wait untiUvo get hold of that little swad-
ftl dllnp Infant , Davenport , this afternoon nnd
rwe'll wallop her so her own mother won't
feitjinow her.

The mayor aj > proved a number of ordi
nances passed at the preceding meeting.
He said ho approved the bill for $184.50 for
printing the ordinances of April , because It
was created through u misunderstanding.
Ho said ho signed the ordinance requiring
the monthly publication of the ordinances
"in the belief that the expenses
would bo trifling and In any
event not to exceed $50.00 per
month. It was my understanding , " he con
tinues , "that typo used in the publication of
ordinances In the paper would bo used. * *
Instead of Unit , howovar , u publication is
being imido each month ut mi expense to the
city of not less than $100 per month , which
will aggregate in the course of a year a sum
equivalent to that which would pay for the
publication of the entire ordinances. " Ho
recommended the council to rexcind Its icso-
lution. The communication was tiled.
Mr. Lee said he was in favor of having the
full proceedings of the council published. Ho
believed it could bo done for the sums paid
for tbo monthly pamphlet.
Mr. Huscall was not opposed to Mr. Leo's
idea , but ho suggested that it might be post
poned until the beginning of the next llscal
rear. Ho insisted that the monthly pain-
ihlct bo limited in the meantime to ordl-
ances of general interest.

ieth was ordered graded its full width.
Mr. Alexander offered the following :
Whereas , Tno disposition to bo made of
garbage in the city of Omaha has become u
matter of great importance to the people , re
quiring the most careful und intelligent con
sideration on the part of the council before
further heavy Investment bo made in that
direction ; therefore , bo it
Resolved , That u committee of flvo bo ap
pointed by the president of this body to in
vestigate the garbage crematory at DCS
Moincs and the methods there in use
of destroying offal , and report the
result to this council at the earliest possible
date ; said committee to include the president
of the council as a representative of the
board of health as Well as of the council.
An amendment was adopted to include the
nspcction of the Minneapolis method , and
the resolution was then passed. The com
mittee was not announced.
Messrs. Leo , Alexander and Lowry were
nptwlnted a committee to arrange for a game

to charity.
A letter was received from the board of
education asking the council to enforce a
former resolution banishing houses of pros
titution from the neighborhood of public
schools , especially from the Dodge and Cass
street schools. Mr. Alexander offered the
following :
Whereas , It is well known that certain of
the public school buildings of Omaha are
nearly surrounded by houses of
prostitution and that tbo pres
ence of such unlawful und dis
graceful institutions Is a constant menace
to the morals of children attending school In
said building , and a reproach upon the fair
name of our city ; therefore , bo it
Hcsolvod , That the chief of police bo and
ho hereby is instructed to cause the removal
within thirty days from this date of all such
houses of prostitution as now exist upon the
same block with any public school building
or that front upon any street within ono
block thereof.
The resolution was passed after being
amended by substituting "tho mayor and
police authorities" for "tho chief of police , "
and changing the word "removul'Uo "abate. "
Mr. Huscall improved the opportunity to
charge the mayor with dereliction of duty in
not enforcing the laws already in existence.
Ho also criticised the school board for main
taining the Dodge and Cass streets schools In
the present localities , and also charged that
children wcro sent unnecessarily from other
localities to those schools. The amendments
wcro of his suggestion.
Mr. IClerstead made a plea for the "girls , "
as poor outcasts who are hounded at every
opportunity. Ho thought they were enti
tled to some pity , nnd the projx > scd measures
should not bo made too swooping. Ho
thought it should ntfoct only those in the
immediate vicinity of the schools.
Mr. Leo gave it ns his opinion that houses
of prostitution should not bo tolerated west
of Tenth street or south of Douglas , but the
proposition was laughed at. Mr. Leo then
complimented Mr. Kierstead in his moral
courage in standing by his convictions.

pany the right of way across the Eleventh

ADDITIONAL COUNCIL BLUFFS.
Unhcook lliimt" ! With Ills Doodle.
A man by the immo of J. F. Uabcock was
arrested at the transfer last evening as ho
kvas about to take the train for Kansas City ,
lo was charged by John Horeu , of Omaha ,
ivlth passing a worthless check. Horcn nc-
iompanlod the party to the police station ,
.vhero ho gave the following account of the
transaction to Tun 13ii : reporter : Some
ittlo tlrno ago Hnbeock Induced him to "go
n" with him on it mining scheme In Idaho.
On the strcngtli of tins Habcock borrowed
ioveral dollars of him at various times , and
iccnmo indebted to him in other waj s to the
ixtcnt of 45.05.
Hoth parties wcro boarding at the same
ilnco in Omaha , and yesterday Horcn was
idviscd by a friend to have nothing more to
do with the fellow , as ho was un all around
crook , nnd had "dono time" in tnc Lincoln
penitentiary for nine years. Horcn deter
mined to investigate , and found Habcock
ireparing to leuvo the city. He demanded u
iottlement , nnd Habcock gave him a check
in the Omaha National bank for the full
imount of his claim. It was then after
bank hours and Horcn did not know whether

pondered over the matter the better satislled
10 became that Hubcock was trying to
swindle him , nnd ho accordingly came on an
evening dummy train nnd headed off Hab
cock at the transfer. The prisoner refused
o talk concerning the matter , and the other
ildo will probably bo heard this morning.
Uabcock is a carpenter by trade , and had in
" : iis pockets some line specimens of inlaid
cabinet work. Ho was charged with being a

There was a royal row on "The Uow" last
night. The c.vprians engaged in a general
ivar , und the air wns tilled with shrieks und
'omalo hair. The police hurried to the scene
as quickly as possible , and tenderly gathered
in what was left of the frail lambs. May
Miller , Hattie Anderson" and Dollio Uradloy
ivero hurried to the cooler by the bluccoated
minions of the law , despite their curses and
other mild expostulations. The first two
managed to rake together $15 and
\ watch , which was put up for
security , nnd they were released.
Dolllc was unable to llnd a solitary nickel ,
and was assigned to the "bridal chamber. "
Her "solid man" shbrtiy afterward appeared
and offered his bank' book , but Teller Hen-
drlclts curtly informed him that the citi
bank did no business at that time of the day ,
and refused to nllow Dollle to bo taken
hence. The charmlfig ( I ) trio will have nn
opportunity to reheat so their pugilistic mall
nee to the court this morning.
Scooped Into the Not.
Tbo police were notified last evening that
D. J. Perkins , n driver for the Cascade Laun
dry company , was missing. Perkins worked ,
until noon yesterday , and collected some
money for the firm. He failed to show up
after dinner , and the head clerk thought that
something must bo wrong. Ho heard that
Perkins was playing faro at "Tho Turf"
about (5 ( o'clock , and gave orders to have him
arrested. Ho has not yet been heard of. Ho
had worked for the laundry company but
about a week , nnd hod given perfect satisfac
tion. It is fcarod that ho is another victim
of the wiles of the Uroadway gamblers.

lown'fl Democratic Convention.
Dr.s MOINKS , In , , August 23. [ Special
Telegram to Tun Br.r. . ] A largo number of
delegates to the democratic state convention
which meets to-morrow have now arrived.
There la .quite a contrast from last week's re
publican convention. Then new men pre
dominated and the old leaders were mostly
absent. This week the old war horses nro
hero In great numbers , including the demo
crats from way buck , who have been going
to state conventions for forty years , nnd
never yet voted for n winning candidate In
Iowa. They are not so very hopeful
of naming winners this year , except on
a part of thu ticket. They will niulco u
special effort to break the republican line on
railroad commissioners and supreme court
judges , thinking they may get some help
from the railroads , who are not happy over
the republican nominations last week.
The favorite for supreme' Judge seems to bo
Judge L G. Klnno , nf the Tumn district
bench. He has been the democratic candi
date for governor tw'cc ' , and several times
chairman of the democratic state cen
tral committee , nnd is very popular with
his paity. He evidently has the call
to-nlglit , though the friends of Judge
Smythe , of Burlington nro pressing him vig
orously. Colonel Uoy , the present demo
cratic member of the railroad commission ,
will bo reiionnnatcd to-morrow by acclama
tion. Ho has served on the board many
years by appointment and the democrats are
very hopeful that ho i-an be elected. Tlicro
nro many other candidates for the other two
commissionei ships , and the prlnclu.il contest
will bo for these positions. The leading can
didates nre Senator Baylies , of Clayton
county , Representative Hotuhlclss of Davis
county , Judge Allison of Sioux City , Fjirmor
Mcrritt of Red Onk , nnd ex-Senator Guult of
Appanoosc.
There is but little talk of the rest of the
state ticket , the democrats having no hope of
electing anyone , and so nobody scorns very
anxious to bo slaughtered. The temporary
chairman to-morrow will bo Michael F.
Henley , of Fort Dodge , secretary , Joseph
Kibocck , of Des Moines , reading clerk , T.
O. Walker , of Murshalltown.
The Gallup Trnnody ut Bhcnnndonli
SIIBNANDOUI , In. , August 23. [ Special to
THE BKE. ] Interest and excitement in the
ate Gallup tragedy nt this place Is fast be
coming n thing of the past , but many curious
visitors still continue to visit the scene of the
tragedy , thu Gallup residence , almost dally.
Dave Campbell , who was so badly wounded
in tbo neck by Frank , is slowly Improving ,
and is now considered out of danger , but ho
will probably have with him through life n
reminder of the terrible events of that night
nnd the narrow escape ho had from death by
: i partial paralysis of ono side of his body.
The ball , in passing around the base of the
skull , seems to have injured the spinal col
umn or some of the nerves arising from It.
Campbell Is nn old soldier nnd possessed of
indomitable prit , which has been n strong
lactor in carrying him through the trying or
deal. Ho is being carefully cared for by the
Grand Army post nnd Odd Fellows' lodge of
this place. Ho is an old settler hero nnd has
a large family. His recital of the occur
rences that transpired as ho lay upon the
porch of the Gallup house after his hand to
bund struggle with the desperado , und of the
manner in which ho escaped to the street
after the firing had ceased , are quite pu-
thotlc. It seems that no heed was paid to Ills
cries for help , nnd as ho was dragging him
self on the ground toward the gate ho was told
moro than once to "get back in there , or
I'll fill you full of holes. " The supposition
seemed to bo that ho was ono of the Gallups ,
if not Frank himself. After finally dragging
himself to the street , nnd after being in
spected by some one with n revolver pointed
toward him , ho was recognized nnd at once
cared for by kind friends. Although It was
reported that Frank's ' wife placed the rope
around her dead husband's nccic , such seems
not to have been the case , us she Is not the
kind of n woman who would be likely to do
such a thing. The report evidently grew out
of the fact that the women in their anxiety
to convince the crowd that Frank was dead ,
endeavored to drag the dead body of Frank
to a place where it could bo seen by the
crowd nnd recognised , on account of the
threats made to burn the house , nnd the
presence of so many" armed men , with the
shooting und consequent excitement that
prevailed , and the prejudice then existing
nguiust the other members of the family.
There wns n strong incentive to got rid of
Frank's dead body as quickly ni possible for
obvious reasons , and to satisfy the crowd for
the time being , so that other members of thu
family could go into hiding until the excite
ment subsided. Mrs. Frank Gallup is well
spoken of by nil who know her , and has the
sympathy of many friends amid hermunifnlil
troubles , and this correction is made that her
burden of sorrow may bo lightened n little at
least.
Decided AgiiiriBt the Commission.
IOWA CITV , In. , August 2S. Judge Fairall
tq-day , sitting as chancellor , filed his opinion
"
in"ttio case of the Iowa railways against' the
Iowa railway commissioners , the test case
being that of the Chicago , Rock Island & Pa-
cillo railway against the commissioners to
retain them from putting into effect the
schedule of rates prepared by the commis
sioners in pursuance of a recent law of the
Iowa legislature. The Judge gives an opinion
of great length , and sustains the Injunction.
Ho goes into the hlstpry of railway legisla
tion , nnd quotes from many authorities to
sustain his position. First ho considers the
question of the Jurisdiction of the defendants ,
and then whether the state is such an ncccs-
Bory party ns precludes ussumingjurisdiction
of the caso. The point Is * decided that the
court has Jurisdiction under thu rule which
authorises actions against officers In then
ofllclul capacity , whether to arrest or direct
their ofllcitil actions by mandamus or injunc
tion where such suits are authorized by Jaw ,
and the act to bo done or omitted Is puroli
ministerial , In tlio performance or omission
of which plaintiff has legal interest. As to
the Jurisdiction of the court of the subject
matter of the action , this is sustained ou the
( round that while the commissioners are
authorized to exorcise a discretion in fixing
rates , yet when they fix such rates so low
that the earnings are too low to enable plain
tiff to pay fixed charges nnd operating
expenses , then their acts contravene the
spirit of the statute which requires rates
to bo reasonable und Just , and Is In violation
of the constitutional provisions which entitle
the common carrier to reward for his bor-
vlccs. The court fuithor holds that the title
of authority of the legislature Is between the
rates which nro compensatory and those
wnlchnronot : and , when not , a court of
equity bus authority to inquire into the mat
ter. The chancellor holds that In view of
the numerous proscutlons which would re
sult from a violation of the schedule rates ,
the heavy Judgments for damages and pen-
ultles und liability to criminal prosecutions ,
nnd the liability of officers of the companies
to flno nnd Imprisonment , under the doctrine
of preventing multiplicity of such the court
bos Jurisdiction , Tlio commissioners nt once
appealed to the supreme court.
