ST. JoSEPit , Mo. , Mny 18. ISpcclal Tolo-
pram to Tnn BKE.J By fnr the most excit
ing gnme seen in St. Joseph this year wns
witnessed by n fnlr sized crowd to-dny , be
tween SU Joseph nnd Omnhn. The lontns
were evenly matched nnd both played to win
from the start. Some phenomenal fielding
wns done , and nftcr the score wns tied in the
ninth inning by Cleveland's homo run the ox-
citcmcnt wns intense. The blanks nftor the
ninth inning \vero occasioned partly by orll-
Hant fielding nnd partly by luck. The bat
ting wns about heavy enough to make things
interesting , although noilher side could
bunch Its hits successfully. This of course
was duo lo Ibo line work of both Clarke and
Klopf , In which the latter had n little tbo
best of It , as ho displayed n cool head nnd
rnro Judgment when men were on bases , nnd
when a hit would have won the gnmo.
Bath pitchers hold out wonderfully
well , considering the length of Iho gnmo ,
nnd grew more effective towards the end of
the game than they wore ut first. They
broUo oven on the number of hits secured by
cnch tcnin , which wns eleven , but Klopf
struck out twelve men to'Clnrko's seven.
The Holding of each team was cxccplionnl.
For Omaha , Crooks did the best work , with
twelve chances nnd ono error. He mndo n
phenomenal catch of n high line ball from
Ardner'R ' bat In the thirteenth inning , and
assisted in a double play , retiring the side ,
'when It looiccd Itko n run for St. Joseph.
Canavnn also did good work nnd was fre
quently applauded for his line running
catches. Ho look everything thnt came his
way < JS'nglo caught his usual good game , anil
throw with great accuracy to buses.
For St. Joseph , the best work in Iho field
was done by Ardnor , who made several bril
liant stops nnd n great running catch. Cart-
wright led at the bat with three singles ,
SI. Joseph earned but ono of her four runs ,
making the first on a wild throw by Clarke.
They bunched their tills in the seventh nnd
eighth Innings bill could not do much with
Clarke al other times.
Up to the ninth Inning It looked like n vic
tory for the'homo team. In this inning , with
two men out , Cleveland came to the hut , and
after two strikes bad been called on him ,
lifted thn ball over the loft field fence , bring
ing in Clarke , who had previously scratched
out a hit. This tied the score , a base on halls
and n double having given Omnhn ono run in
the third , nnd Iwo singles nnd nn error by
Smith another In Iho liflh. After Cleveland
had mndo bis homo run Crooks struck
out. The next nluu men were dis
posed of easily In Iho tenth , eleventh
and twelfth innings , notn man reaching first
base. In the thirteenth Coonoy mndo a
single nnd stele second , but neither Walsh
nor Ciumvnn could advance him a base und
ho wns left ou second. 'Again. In the four
teenth , Naglo made a single and got to second
end ou Curtis' bad fielding. Clarke struck
out and Strnuss cot to second on Krieg's
muff of bis high fiy. A hit would now have
won the gnmo , but Cleveland and Crooks
flow out lo Curtis and Krieg , leaving Naglo
ou third and Strausa on second.
The gnmo was then called lo allow the
homo team to catch the train for Denver.

OBSTACLES IN THU WAY.
The Sioux CommlHHlon Ijlkoly to En
counter Trouble.
MINNEAPOLIS , May 10. A Tribune Stand
ing Hock agency special saya : Recent
Washington dispatches from prominent men
connected with Indian affairs indicate that
General Crook and tbo other commissioners
will have trouble In negotiating the treaty.
In speaking for this agency , nnd It is
most important In the Sioux commission
problem , it is sale to say the commissioners
will meet with much that will try their rec
ognized ability. Rod Cloud's Indians will
rcceivo $23,800 for 703 ponies taken when all
the Sioux were disarmed after the Custor
massacre. The Indians on the agency lost
3,700 horses nnd the Cheycnnos 3,200 , for
the payment pf which there is no
appropriation or any evidence of ono
being made in the future. The Indians on
the agency wiljjj Vflderstand this fact , and
When the commlss nors ask them to sign the
treaty for the reservation , they will ask the
government for the same justice that Red
Cloud gets. This ( being denied , it Is almost
certain that n flat refusal to sign any treaty
will bo given. JT

panied by his wifo. They nro en route to

the hope that the health of Mrs. Mclvlbbon ,
who is an Invalid , may bo benefited.
The general , whllo In active service ,
was nt one time stationed nt
different posts hi that part of the country ,
nnd ho anticipates much pleasure in revisit
Ing his old slumping ground.
In conversation Inst night with n BBR re
porter , the general nnld Unit It wus generally
understood at the national capital , that General -
oral Kclton. assistant adjutant-general of
the army , would succeed General Drum ,
who is to bo retired the last of this month.
General MeKoovor , ho said , had boon men
tioned in connection with the otllcc , but ho
thinks bib chances very poor , and considers
that General Kclton will undoubtedly ro-
ccivo the appointment ,
The jroncral said thnt ho noticed great
changes in Omnlm. From a town It has
grown into n city with mushroom rapidity.
Ho considered Us growth simply wonderful.
"As I understand the Fort Omaha bill , "
said ho , "tho removal of the post Is obliga
tory. 1 always understood thnt the romovnl
to Bollavuo wn i desired bv the people here ,
nml nm somewhat surprised to find thnt ob
jections nre bolng mnao. 1 wondered at thn
time why the people hero should desire nny
such change , ns the trade thnt the regiment
brings would bo decreased. To keep the post
where it now Is , oven If additional ground
could bo .secured , I think that the passage of
another bill would bo necessary. "
General and Mrs. McKlbbcn will lenvo
this morning for Portland. Their son
was unfortunately called awuy to-day on
business , but upon their return they expect
to visit for soinu time with him. The gen

Child Mnrrlacc In India.
A sensational case has recently excited -
cited public attention .at Bombay , in
which Holkar's son-in-law was chartrcd
with cruelty to his child-wife. The
facts auduccd in the evidence show that
the husband was forty-seven years old
and the wife nine. The licensed had
already been married fourteen times.
The father of the child bold her for rs.
20 a month. She was seen ou the para
pet of a house greatly agitated and
thrciuoiiiiiy to throw herself down into
the street. When a policeman entered
the house she slated that hoi * husband
had beaten her , and threatened to kill
her if she failed to undo a knot in hiH
hair within live days. Eventually the
accused was acquitted , ns the evidence
was deemed insufficient to prove ha
bitual cruelty. The facts of the case
Htill further illustrate the uhiqutous
cruelty of the existing practice of child
marriage , and show the imperious ne
cessity , In the interest of common hu
manity , of an early reform of Hindoo
marriage customs ,
