Patton covered second very well , but made one bad error In trying to catch a fly In the second Inning , which. If caught , might have liiado n material difference in the result. This was followed In the same Inning by errors by Hart nnd Council , which , together with two singles and a base given Cleveland lor bolng hit with n ball , netted the visitors Hvo. In the fourth inning the visitors again cored twice by gutting a clioico hit , thrco mingles and a wild pitch by Emmorko , who was rather wild. Nichols , for the visitors , was very steady find nffoctivo , nnd was supported without an I .error. Ho was touched up freely , but only to the Infield , five scattered hits being made from his delivery and thrco others going to the outfield. The Omaha team had every thing tholr own wav , apparently , and played in excellent spirit , while the locals scorned Bomowhnt carolcts and Indifferent after the ragged playing in the second.

CHICAGO , Juno 0. In the Cronin inquest , to-day , the cashier of John T. Lester & Co. , brokers , testified that between Juno 1 , 18S2 , nnd April 18,1SS3 , Alexander Sullivan paid to the firm , on ' .runsuctions with the firm , the sum of $133,800 ; that during the same period ho drew out $115,318 in chccka , nnd stock worth $14,000 , showing a not loss of about M.noo. Ono of Lester & Co.'s booKKcopors was put on the stand and proceeded to road nn abstract of the transactions in stocks which Sullivan hau with the firm during the period mentioned. The list was qulto long und was not all read. Captain Thomas F. O'Connor , n member of the Clan-na-Uacl that in 1SS5 - - , says a man came to HOO him. This man , ho believed , lived in Philadelphia , but ho could not re member his name. The man told him that sotno men were going across the water , nnd that the chances were that ho ( witness ) would bo called on to go. O'Connor mentioned this to his friend , Dr. Cronin , who advised him not to go ; that there were enough good , honest Irishmen behind English bars who had boon given away as soon as they arrived , nnd that ho didn't believe In the dynamite policy. The stranger saw the witness in Dr. Cronin's company , and ho did not como to see him again. The only other notable witness of the dav was John F. Boggs , a lawyer , senior guar dian ( presiding ofllcor ) of Camp No. 20 , Clan- na-Gaol. Beggs was cross-examined In n way thnt , for freedom nnd scope , could scarcely bo sur passed. Ho testified that P. O. Sullivan , the Ice man. Is a member of camp 20. Other than this the relevancy of the bulk of the witness' testimony was not apparent at this stage of the proceedings. The witness declared him self a friend of Alexander Sullivan. The Daily News to-morrow will say : "It docs not appear the Irish cause loat any money by Alexander Sullivan's banking operations. " Mr. Sullivan , when asked what bank his account was transferred to from the Traders , promptly replied the Chlgago National. Lawyer A. S. Trudo , speaking for Mr. Sullivan , in an interview said : "Mr. Sulli van was simply the ngont of persons or n combination desiring to- operate on the board of trade , nnd his rcccipta show the word 'agent. ' Sullivan did not know anything about speculations of this charac ter probably could not tell a 'put' from a 'call. ' His uamo was simply used ou Lester & Co.'s Dooks by u syndicate of bucket shop men in order that they might do business on the board of trade when their orders made it necessary for them to do so. The syndicate was made up of such firms as Murphy & Co. Mr. Sullivan mot some of these parties in his law practice and was glvon largo sums of money with explicit written directions what to do with it. Tho.v or their customers wcro gaiuora or losers by the transactions made by Lester & Co. , not Aloxaudcr Sulli van. van."Tho public knows very well that the board of trade would not sanction Lester & Co. , or any other firm doing an open business for bucket shops , und thi * wua the reason for the concealment nnd the use of Mr. Sullivan's name. Mr. Sullivan never drew a check in favor of any syndicate of bucket shop men for any sum until ho hud the money in hand from them to moot It , Coincident with the time when ho waa thus acting us ugcnt for the bucket ahoi > men , ho rccoivod from Patrick Egnn n largo Bum of money of which ho waa custodian. This sum was transferred from Paris to Now York nnd thence to Chicago , where it waa deposited in the Trad ers' bank , Sullivan knowing that there was no losa to him personally from Lester & Co.'s transactions , ho cared little what bank ho drew the money from. Ho always hud syndicate money in hand before fore drawing a check to tholr broker. " Mr. Trudo said further , that Mr. Sullivan has Mr. Egun's receipt iu full for the whole sum intrusted to bis keeping , and can traeo nil of the channels through which the money was finally disbursed. 11 IK ! to bo Ofl'oiiHlva 1'nrtlnans.

A Visit to the Famous Shoshone Basin Joe DoBarth thtia describes , in the Wind River Mountaineer , a visit to the Shoshonc oil basin:1 : "On last Thursday morning , accom panied by Fish Commissioner Orson Grimraott , I paid tb.o wells of the Shoshone shone oil basin n visit. Upon our arri val at the wolis wo were received and royally entortahiedaby Hon. Mike Mur phy. After an'hour's ' rest Major Dome Joe Brown joined the party and drove us to tlio throb oil spouters. These wells are numbered. 1 , 2 and 3 , and lira situated about l,000'foet apart , forming a triangle. ci No. 3 well was the first ono visited. Here Messrs. Murphy and Brown , un locked the well and "turned on the steam. " A noise , loud as thunder , and uot unlike that made by a locomotive's exhaust , ensued. Then came the oil , a soothing , smoking , black mass , thick as molasses and two inches in diameter. The mass , as it rushed from the well pipe , floated down a gradually iiu-lin- ing ditchway and over an embankment into the smallest of two mighty lakes of lubricating liquid. In this natural lake ( it has boon estimated by Prof. Charles Blydooburg ) are fully 3,000 bar rels of oil. nearly all of which cannot but bo wasted in time through atmos phcric causes. Well No. 2 is situated immediately on the banks of the Little Popoagio river. The noise of the uprising gas , when the oil tube was opono , was al most deafening , followed a minuo later by a two-inch stream of jot black oil. The entire surroundings scorned sur charged with the smell of oil , and Mr. Brown received ono charge over the body that made him slippery as an col , oven his words partaking of the lubri cant's nature and becoming remarkably smooth and oily. A.t well No. 1 the most marvelous sight mot our guzc. Here is situated tlio famous oil spring that has boon written of so often. After tlio well had spouted oil to a distance of forty feet nbross the second lake and had been shut olT , our attention was diioctcd to the unusual disturbance occuring in the spring. Tlio oil took on a motion something like water ut a boiling heat ; then the largo bubbles would burst and throw the black liquid into the air to a hcighth of four foot. Mr. Murphy in formed us that the spring always "acted just so" whenever the well was turned on and then closed. Although we paid the spring a second visit some half hour after the well had boon closed , its sur face was as much or o-cti more disturbed than when we first noticed its strange actions. Our attention was next directed to the larger of the two oil lakes. This lake is about three 1 i id rod yards in length , its width varying from twelve to iifty feet. This huge body of oil is so thick that wild ducks lighting on its surface become BO weighed that they are never able t'6 p trirato themselves , in consequence of which the bodies of dead ducks are us thick on the oily sur face as a fly ipapolis of llles. Prof. Blydonburg estimates the number of barrels of oil iiiTilm lake at 15,000. Mr. Murphy .thinks that the daily loss of oil in welts und Jakes by evapo ration is fully three barrels.

CAPITAL IS DRIVEN AWAY Kcputnblo Men All IiOAvlnjr the Liquor Trixfllo to the Sensible People to Open Tholr I5ycs. Prohibition's Bllghr. I stopped between trains tit a thriv ing town called Crostonon the Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy railroad , botwocn Burlington and Ointiha , writes a special correspondent of the Cincinnati En quirer. It was my pleasure to moat Mayor Patterson , the democratic mayor. Ho is going to enforce the laws of the state of Iowa. Uo said there are in this place seventy-five men who hold a United Stales license to sell liquor under the prohibition laws of the state of Iowa. "Our population Is about eight thou sand. Wo call those follows 'boot- loggers. ' They cvou carry a bottle of whisky In their boot and take n man into an nlloy and sell him a drink out of it , and they have a United States , government license to do it. Before prohibition wo had about forty saloons that paid a license of tibout 810,000 , which wont intoour municipal treasury , nnd was used in improving our streets. Wo now have double the num ber of men engaged in the liquor trafllo , nnd they pay no license and no tax , and I propose that this class of men shall bo compelled to stop their Illegal trallic In the liquor business. After the law has boon en forced , which prohibits the sale of In toxicating liquors in any shape , form or manner in the state of Iowa , if there are any roptuablo mon , who wish to engage - gage in the tralllc , it is barely possible that I may wink at it and permit them to do business openly , but I am against this sneak business , which enables mon without any character or property re sponsibilities to scrape together a few dollars , pay u government license nnd buy a jug of whisky and enter surrepti tiously into the saloon business and es cape paying any tax or revenue to the state or city. "This kind of business has a very demoralizing effect on society. Tbo so- called prohibition laws in Iowa have not prevented the sale of intoxicating liquors. About all that has boon ac complished has been to drive every reputable and responsible man out of the business who has been engaged in it and turn it over to the most hardened nnd disreputable mon , who have no morals and no property , and who do not care what they sell. " Since talking to Mayor Patterson ho has succeeded in doing what ho said ho would , and the "boot-loggers" arc having trouble in his jurisdiction. JMSSTllOYIXQ rUOl'EUTV. Millions of dollars' worth of property have either boon placed in jeopardy by the rabid and unreasonable enforce ment of the prohibitory laws , or driven out of the state altocothor. The goods of wholesale houses wore recently seized at Burlingtonand many lanatics and crazy papers have boon urging the destruction of the entire stock. The Custom Gazette has this to say of this , case : "After soizingabout two hundred bar rels of liquors in Burlington the people and papers are discussing whether the stulT shall bo destroyed. The liquors taken from Dclahayo & Purdy are , per haps , worth $10,000 , and its destruction would bankrupt the firm. It is true they have defied the law. and deserve some punishment , but one reason of their delay In taking their stock out of the state was the hope that the legisla ture would , if an extra session should bo colledauthorize the wholsalo dealers in Iowa to boll to Iowa dealers for legal purposes. It is somewhat dillicult to find arguments against permitting1 wholesale houses in Iowa. The law authorizes the sale of liquors for certain purposes at retail , and then prohibits anyone from soiling to these retailors. The elloct is that our retailers are com pelled to go into other slates to buy their liquors at wholesale. Dolahavo Ac Purdy made a strong effort at DCS Moines last winter to have the law amended so as to permit them to sell to authorized retail dealers. "Wo say enforce the lawbut in doing so cause as little loss of capital as possi ble. The destruction of Dolahavo & Purdy's liquor would not lessen the amount of liquors that would bo sold , for there are now in the United States over ono hundred million gallons to take its place. If they will take the stuff out of the state and quit the busi ness till the law will permit them to re turn witli it , wo say lot them go. " OKTTINQ THUlIt KYKS Ol'lSX. The alarm that capital has taken and the way it is leaving the state to the great detriment and injury of its prosperity and devel opment , has brought many people to their senses : The people of this country cannot af ford to practice wrong or injustice. There are certain principles of right which are as otordat as the everlasting hills. If they are violated the result will bo a train of evils to bo felt for all time. The uoizura and condemnation of property of citizens under the prohi bition laws was contrarv to justice and right. It was simply the spoliation of the weak by the strong. It has been allowed in a special line of cases , and where it will stop no man can say. The Des Molncs Register , which is proba bly as much to-blti mo for arousing this destructive and fanatical spirit in the people as all other agencies , now says this of the course pursued : "Wo are convinced now that in light ing for prohibition suHlciont attention was not paid * to the rights of property- owners injured by the prohibition law. The wonder is now that a stronger cob- test was not made on tlmtlino. If It hud been , and the sense of fair play of the Iowa people appealed to , wu boliuvo that tho.io whobo property was destroyed would have been given ut least partial compensation. It is now too late to amend the injustice , and yet wo bo- Hevo that if over prohibition shall fail in Iowa , by failing to secure the ap proval of succeeding generations , the plant of such distrust and repudiation will have largely sprung from a return ing sense of fair play that such a revo lution should not have boon accom plished without compensation to the people and citizens who , un der sanction of the law , had established properties in this state for the nmnufnoturo of liquors. For our part wo begin to feel that the education of the poouTo of lowa.tbon , in disregard of the rights of the property owners.has much to do with the disregard on the part of many people as to the fair rights of railroad properties now. "This admission of the injustice of the hasty proceedings under the prohi bition laws , in many cases , produces only the sickening sensation that fol lows the announcement that the wrong man has boon hanged. The Register says : 'The wonder now Is that u stronger contest was not made. ' Of what use was n , stronger contest ? The courts were packed with a lot of Ughl-wolght nnd miporfloliil lawyers , oloctcd by a political party which hold them to strict account for their decisions In liquor cases. If a judge happened to bo tv lawyer PO at tached to the fundamental principles of justice and so grounded nnd educated in the law that ho could not bo made n tool of by the fanatical element who watched his actions , ho hud to quit tlio bench. That was the kind of fight that was carried on under the prohibition nud confiscation laws of Iowa. The Register says : 'It Is now too late to amend the injustice. ' Oh , no , it is notl It is not too late to again assort the old and well-founded principles of right- and liberty which have boon forcibly .throttled by the unthinking anil fanatical bigots of Iowa. Tlioso prin ciples are stronger than majorities , and will llvo as bright its diamonds , though they have been ( juried in rubbish. " * HE SOURED ON THE WORLD. The StrniiRO Story of n San Frnnelsoo ItCOlllHO. Under the shadow of a beetling cliff that overhangs the southern shore of the Golden Gate stands a little shanty not more than ton foot square , but built to endure against the eternal trade winds coming in from the Pacific ocean , says the San Francisco Examiner , Its unassuming exterior and general mis erable appearance are in a measure compensated for by its very romantic location. To a casual observer It is a fishing hut or some kind of signal sta tion ; but looks are often deceitful , and the truth of such adage comes forcibly to the mind when the observant ono is told a family of throe have lived a strange existence in this lonely spot an existence ttitit still has much of its whilom romantic association. Old Nod Flynn , the lord and master of this weather-beaten hovel , was once wealthy , and figured prominently in mining and stock circles when only pioneers were in San Francisco. But reverses came , and ho dropped out of the race for wealth in which the ' bonanza" successful. mon were so . His hoard , that accumulated more rap idly than ho ever dreamed of before ho came from His homo in Now York to California in search of gold , vanished just as quickly as it had rolled in upon him. Ho returned to his old trade of machinist and worked for years in city shops. Gradually his misfortune preyed upon his mind until at last he soured on the world and became a recluse from his follows , settling in a place whore ho could bo far away from men , with whom ho was compelled to work a portion tion of his time to keep body and soul together and support a son and laugh ter. It was then lie selected this wild , romantic location for his hermit homo beside the sea. Before the Powell Street Railway company ran its line around the hills and crags of the Golden Gate Ned Flynn was seldom troubled by the sight of human face near his habitation , and like Robinson Crusoe , ho felt as if ho wcro master of all ho surveyed. Now , however , the picturesque place is daily visited by sightseers , and also by art students , who sketch in the bright sun shine nnd study rocks and sea or paint the little housounmindful of its history. The trains stop above it at a station appropriately named Fair \riow , and a pathway loads , straggling through a scrubby brushwood , to the beach. A short distance east of the station is Nod Flynn's shanty , which can bo scon from the cars as the train passes the second curve between Point Lobos and the tunnel. , Tut > t whore the surf rolls in angrily through great rocks and breaks on a white , sandy cove the old man built a hut of driftwood and loose rocks about four years ago. Ho lived rent free outside the tide limits during the summer season , but the wintry waves washed his crude structure away. Adolph Sutrothon gave the hermit the present shanty , charging him SI a month as security against squatter's claim. Flynn says ho is bettor off alone than in the city. Ho has free spring water rippling by his door , more driftwood in the canon than ho can burn , room for domestic fowl on the sand and a good fishing ground. It is a very striking and incongruous contrast to see the fowls beside tlio surf , as it keeps up a continual boom in the caverns through the clilT. Nod did not do much work until the railroad gave him employment on tbo track. At times only would ho go down town to earn some money in the foundries , and then necessity compelled him. A year ago his diuightor , a young woman of about twenty years ot ago , wont to live with him mid her brother in this ill-auitod abode , whore she died last month from hasty con sumption. "Sho used to wander around here all day . "said a conductor on the ClilT road , "and never had any girls como to .see her. The poor girl" had a lonely life before she died. It is just as well for horsoif she is gone. "She was * not strong by any moans when she left her work to lie down there , " ho continued , pointing toward the little shanty. ' 'But , I guess , it was enough to kill her. "For a long time none of us saw her , and then some women from Point Lobos road wont down there every day nnd nursed the poor thing for months. "The women say her death was as sad and lonely a scone as over any ono im agined. They buried her quito decently in the cemetery over tlio hill , but the funeral was indeed an atTccling sight. "There is no road or any kind of level pathway from the shanty , so they had to carry her collln up the trail and through the rocks and sand dunes as best they could , resting it here and there in the brush as they climbed the canon. "Tho old man told mo ho built the fog siren across ut Point Bonito when ho was a machinist. I know its dismal voice used to blow pretty regularly across the Golden Gate when his girl was dying. Some of the boys say it was blowing when she was laid in her grave , like a funeral knoll. "Old Flynn is more distant and lone some now than before his daughter died , and has less to buy to any of us. Once in a while ho forgets things and takes on at a great rate. Ho is working witli Ills faon in the Froirch cemetery now. " His young daughter is also there , hut cho is under the sod. They keep her grave green. Why Ills Stomach Hurt Him.
