Ono moro and the Omaha's may have the
earth.
Will they got It ? Hope so , anyway.
There must have been fully three thousand
people outnt the park , yesterday afternoon ,
to see the White Sox take tholr fifth game
of the season from the Apostles.
And what a game it was a lively , rattling
game , charactcrbcd by some splendid hitting -
ting , some interesting errors and n whole lot
of brilliant Holding mid best of nil , Omaha
won it.
There wcro lots and lots of spectators to
cheer tholr line stops and throws. They
Bccmcil anxious to get rid of a few of the old
cold trimmings which they donned the day
before. But they didn't got rid of them all
by .a long shot , und if there is n milliner who
would like to open up shop , she can got any
auantity of Raflorn frills and furbelows by
fiplyiug to Captain Carroll. They Justro-
t/iltiod a sufficient amount of the ochre to
transport three thousand Onmlmns to the
lotusland of base ball delirium.
The sport opened uu with a great big hur
rah.
rah.After
After Coono.v'aout Cleveland took his base
on balls , and Strauss his on an error by very
fresh Mr. Hellloy. Then Jack Crooks hit
ono so hot at Mr. TucUorman that ho had to
drop it to cool his fingers , and
before ho could again got his ilangos
on It and field it to Hnwos ,
Croolts was perched upon the bag , with his
face cracked fiom car to car. Of course
Grover nud Jiikoy had each advanced a
cushion m the play.
On Andrews' long sacrificial stroico to the
apostolic Italian tn the middle garden , Cleveland -
land ran across the plate with the first run.
A wave of dim music swelled from out the
grandstand at this.
And then there was moro and moro of that
same sweet harmony as Walsh cracked out a
two taclior , sending Mr. Strauss and Mr.
Crooks in.
But no mbro runs wore scored , although a
passed oall let Joe to .third and Naglo nud
Willis both got their base on balls.
Clarke's grounder to Hawes wound up the
business.
For the Saints , Hawes led off with n two
bagger , and niter Murphy's out to Cleveland -
land , ho made third on Carroll's out. Hollloy
got his base on bulls , but it all amounted to
nothing , for Grover throw Worriok out at
first.
Coonoy again led off in the second , and this
tlmo with a slashing single , only to bo forced
nt second , however , by Cleveland. Strauss
hit to right for n base , Grover reaching
third. Tuckcrman tossed Crooks out at first ,
but Wngonhurst Juggled Andrews' vicious
rap , and Cleveland run homu and Strauss to
third. Walsh brought him in a moment
later on a fine single , scoring himself a lit
tle after on a decayed play by Mr , Worriclt ,
Which also allowed Nuglo to roach flrM. Wil
lis was thrown out oy Hoilloy.
But four more scores wasn't bad , anywav.
You'd thought so if you had hoard the people
cheer.
In their half. St. Paul gathered in a couple
for herself.
On Willis' muff , after a long run , Urough-
ton made first , und on Clarke's error of
Farmer's hit ho ralloped round to third , the
ruralhit making first. Wagonliurst wont out
to first aud Tuckcrman forced Farmer out at
second. Hawes sent both base runners iu
on a dandy two-bagger.
Omaha's third and fourth were unproduct
ive , but Stf. Paul scored a tally In each. The
The first was made by Carroll who reached
third by the gra'co of a little bad Judgment
of Willis , thus after Heilly had popped ono
up to Cleveland , no scored on Worrlck's sac
rifice. The second Farmer captured. Ho
got to first on bulls , stole second by the skin
of his molars , ana came homo on Tucker-
man's out at first. ,
In the fifth the White Sox again went nt
their pudding Mr. Tuckortnon. Naglo
smashed him for n long fly to center , which ,
unfortunately , Mr. Murphy received with
great cordiality. Willis , however , sent ono
aibilatlng like a bullet over his head , and lie
ran round to third , whllo Old Dad Clarke
lifted him over the fence for a homer.
No very hard luck tlioro , was there ) In
their half the saints also tallied. Hellloy
made a magnificent drive ever the left field
fence for four sucks.
It was u tromendnus hit and the youthful
chap was made to doff his cup.
Ho didn't want to do it a bit , though , for
the bleacheM hud Just finished roasting him
to a tune.
You see the boy's n little premature.
In the sixth , Omaha again made four runs ,
but as this getting sort o'tircsomo.
Suffice It to state that on a hit and n steal by
Crooks , a hit each by Walsh and Naglo , a
wild pitch and two exuberant errors by Mr.
Wcrrick , of Louisville , was accountable for
the whole business.
It was a very entertaining Inning , and way
out in right flo'ld , Captain Carroll executed a
wild war-danco of misery nun toro his griz
zled hair in the depth or dispatr. The specters -
tors arose to tholr feet and howled un
til tholr suspender buttons cave
way and the stiffening iu tholr
spinal columns were gone.
Hlght hero Tuckoruinn concluded ho had
had an elegant sufficiency and ho guvo way
to Wells ; Murphy "also retired and .Mains
went to the field.
Both sides were blanked in tbo lucky
seventh , as wa s Omaha also in the eighth.
St. Puul , however , made another run.
Hawes hit for three bases and scored ou
Carroll's aintdo.
The ninth was marked by three more runs
for the locals. For the third time Cleveland
trot bis base on balls ; Strauss lucod out a
two-bagger , und Walsh and Naglo a sinslo
each , und as the Apastlos failed to accom
plish anything in their half , the tale is told.
The sumo teams play uguiu this afternoon ,
and if you want to HOC the game , it would bo
a good plan to go early , for there Is going to
bo a game , sure.

Spokane the Victor.
CHICAGO , Juno 22. Forty-seven thousand
people paid their money at the gates of
Washington park to-day , and then saw
Spoknno win the American derby , worth
S18OCO. Spokane had been favored by far :
still , the other horses had their backers.
Proctor Knott , though defeated on moro
than ono field , was not considered disgraced ,
and many thousand dollars were staked upon
bis ability to win the race. Don Jose , too ,
wns also considered by many to stand every
bit ns good n chance ns Spokano. There was
also n string tip on Once Again.
As the time of the race drew near the
noise made by the bookmakers grow louder
and louder , and odd wcro cried iu vociferous
tones on every hand. The rush about the1
betting booths was enormous , and hundreds
of people were unable to got within fifty
feet of a bookmaker. Spokane was * a hot
favorite at six to flvc , though largo sums of
money were also bet ou nearly every other
horse In the race. Nearly $1,000,000 changed
hands at the result.
The race was an exciting ono because tbo
tremendous crowd made it so. There was
no qrcat show in the preliminary parade , in
which each of the contestants looked fit to
compete for the valuable stakes , Torronto
was the llrst on the traen. Then Proctor
Knott appeared , and ho was followed by
Long Dance , Ion Jose , Retrieve and Once
Again. Last came Spukane. During the
three broak-aways Proctor Knott broke in
front each time. When the flag fell to an
excellent start Once Again was in front , fol
lowed by Torrcnto , D on Jose , Proctor Knott ,
Long Dance , Retrieve and Spokane in the
order named.
The "Dare Devil"
immediately piled the
whip , and Knott shot ahead like a flash ,
Once Again being taken back by Murphy.
The pace was fairly fast , and nil seemed con
tent with their positions , which , down the
stretch and past the stand. were not changed ,
except that for n moment Don Jose made a
spurt. Knott had au advantage of two
lengths over the others , who were well
bunched , with Spokane bringing up
the rear under IJiloy's strong pull.
Knott lost some of his lead ,
and at the three-quarter pole Toronto was
gaining. Then the pace bccamo desperate.
When the half milo mark fell behind the
racers there was just daylight between Knott
and Retrieve , while the others , except Once
Again , cut oft on the turn , and the jockey ,
pulling him to the outside , made up the lost
ground so rapidly , that his backers trembled
with Joy. As the homo stretch was reached
ho was again second , but there Proctor Knott
gave out , and there Spokane made his run.
So fust did ho como that iu rushing past
the last quarter ho was actually leading ,
while Knott had already fallen into third
place. Again Torrcnto advanced , but
though stronger than these behind , could not
disturb Spokane , who came away under
Kiloy's upraised hand , but without tasting
whip or spur , und won very easily by a full
length. TorrcDto was second , a head botoro
Retrieve , third , followed by Don Jose , Long
Dance , Once Again and Proctor Kuott. The
latter , cut up and very tired , stopped at the
paddock and was taken to his stable ,
while the crowds hurrahed and the baud
played as a saddle of roses was placed upon
the winner's haunchest
So much money came down from the
northwest thnt Spoknno went to the park a
heavy favorite at six to live. The other clos
ing odds were two to ono ; Don Jose , four to
one ; Once Again , six to one ; Foreuto , eight
to one ; Long Dance and lioti love , thirty to
one. each.

It Survives the lUinilo Island Dis
aster and Explains.
CHICAGO , June 23. Mrs. J. Ellen Foster ,
of Iowa , chairman of the Woman's National
Republican committee and well known us a
republican prohibitionist , was In the city to
day on her way homo from Rhode Island.
Speaking of the rocgnt defeats in the east ,
she said It was now ovldonco of the "power
and extent to which the liquor traffic has de
praved the people of this country. " She de
nied that there had boon a genuine test in
Rbodo Island and Now Hampshire , but
added that in Massachusetts and Pennsylva
nia the contnst had been free and fair.
"Tho republican party iu both states , "
naid she , "declared for submission and re
deemed its pledges. The campaigns , " she
said , "were necessarily non-partisan. No
political party is responsible for the success
or failure of this politico-moral question.
Tbo temperance people , " Mrs. Fester said ,
"will keen iu the old lines of moral suasion
work , and when the time is rlpo and the In-
tollcrunt assumptions of the liquor
power in politics reach a point beyond
endurance the outraged people will swoop
this un-Amoncan oligarchy from tbo coun
try. "Tho prohibition work , " said Mrs.
Foster , "will not bo abandoned , as wo belle va
all legislative remedies to bo transient and
superficial. "
Asked if she was opposed to national pro
hibition , Mrs. Foster said :
"Not at all. I believe It will some tlmo bo
accomplished , but it will coino when tbo
grouud has boeu prepared by btato action. "

this council wcro so unfavorable in the effect
which It had upon the wavering ones.
The council mot this afternoon with about
n hundred Indians present representing the
different bands of the agency. American
Horse opened the seance with n talk about
Indians being allowed to furnish hay for the
agency instead of It all being douo by con
tract and the money circulated off the reser
vation. Ho disclaimed any intontlou of oc
cupying the tlmo of the convention. "Thoro
wcro representatives of the different bunds
present , lot them como forward and give
tholr reasons for their action. "
JTiro Thunder was the first to follow in a
speech in which ho said that they had hold a
council with General Crook the other da'y ,
and ho told them to mnUo up their minds at
once us ho wanted to know how they felt ,
and then ho wanted them to tfo over to the
ofllco and doclnro themselves for or against
the bill. This they hud done and made u do-
clslon against signing.Vo nil decided , BO
wo do not wish to detain you hero. You
may as well go to where there Is more work
for you to do. "
No Flesh , a worm supporter of the
measure , then spoke rather lukewarmly in
behalf of the bill , stating some causes which
ho had for complaint in the matter of boos ,
farmers , eta Ho paid his respects to the
present system of camp schools , and advo
cated a single largo boarding school instead.
Then began a march which was dishearten
ing to these wishing to obtain signatures.
Big Bad , an influential chief , then spoke
for his band , saying In substance the same
as did Fire Thunder.Ho said : "When our
children grow up and are educated , then you
can como here , and they will t > o better able
to treat with you. "
Hish Wolf , Spotted Elk. Iron Horse. Fire
Lighting , No Water and White Cow Killer
followed in the same strain , saying their
decision was made and they could not
change.
Iron Horse said"L'"Liston to ma. I am an
Indian. This land , is the Great Spirit's
wife and is my mo or , I cannot sell her nor
leave her. "
Speeches wore made against the bill in long
winded talks evidently made against time to
prevent any action" ' by those in sympathy
with the commission anil their work.
Young Man Afraid of His Horses and
Little Wound talkgd ntilongth , but with no
now ideas. Charging Shield chanced the
monotony of the run by favoring the bill , as
did Bear Nose , a youuff'Indian who , under
Crook's influence felt inclined to act for him
self and not allow the chiefs and old men to
control his actions. Ho had something to say
about Kcd Cloud and < bis bribe-taking , openly
accusing him of taldng money to influence
his actions. Ho said * ' ho had been on the
fence welching t how tall < trco bond 'in the
winds , not knowing on which side it would
fall. , Otner short tnHis-werc indulged , when
the council broke up 'with a speech from
American Horse to the people. Ho spolio in
substance as follows :
"Hero you have all boon talking , talking
like n oarccl of children , and what have
you said. I have asked thcso commissioners
to tell us all about the bill , and you sat
around hero listening , but you uro blind and
deaf. Your ears are full of dirt , you can not
hear. Have you given u single reason for
your action , not one ; but you say you will
wait till your children are grown up. You
will bo like our brothers In the Indian' terri
tory who waited for their children to grow
and then they lost the opportunity , for the
white men made laws and took the land nny-
wav. "
This speech checked in some measure the
bad moral effect which so many contrary
talks hsd upon this easily swayed people ,
creatures of impulse ns they are. There are
now about four hundred signers and a few
coming in. About fifty signed yesterday.

A Rnhjoot Thnt Needs Attention.
SAN FIUNCISOO , Juno 83. ( Spoolal Tolo-
grara to Tun BOB.- Along the water front
great interest is manifested as to the action
of the next congress regarding steamship
subsidies , for unless bouicthmg is done all
American steamers will bo driven from the
Pacific. Since the passage of the exclusion
net the Pacific Mall company has hud to de
pend wholly on freight trafilo with China.
The Canadian Paclflo line is heavily subsi
dized by both the imperial and dominion gov
ernments , and now fast steamers have born
put on that run from Yokohama to Van.
couver In the past two weeks. The consequence
quence Is that they are getting all the pas
senger traffic and the best part of the freight
tratllo which gees over the subsidized Cana
dian Paclflo road. The Now Zealand gov-1
ornmont hni withdrawn its mall subsidy to
the Ocean line , and now only Now South
Wales contributes , and tholr contract ex
pires in a year , during which tlmo they will
look after other linos. The colonies are much
hurt at the utter indifference of the
United States , ns the latter receive most of
the benefit in the way of commerce. The
Canadian and' imperial governments nro
anxious to divert mail and trade to the
Canadian lines , and unless something Is done
our largo and rapidly growing tr.xdo with
the South Pacific island * and Australia will
bo ruined. The outlook is good for laying nn
ocean cable to the Hawiian Islands. Canada
is also anxious to get this , but the Islanders
much prefer a line to the states. Columbus
Waterhouso , a representative of the Hawiian
syndicate , arrived this week to Interest
Americans In taking stock. A largo amount
has ulroady boon subscribed in Honolulu.
Ho says work will bo commenced In eighteen
months , and that moro than 81,000,000is now
subscribed. It will cost $1,500,000.
The railway elections and changes which
occurred during the past week have had
much effect on the entire west. The elections
at Portland , in the Oregon Transcontinental
and Oregon Hallway and Navigation compa
nies , resulted in a victory for Villurd. The
Union Puclllo has gained victories of much
value to that line and benollt to
Omaha. It will soon penetrate Spo
kane Falls and share in the enormous
trade of eastern Washington with the
Northern Pacific , and will before many
months have a direct outlet to Pugct Sound.
The Santa Fo made trafHo arrangements
with the Chicago & Northwestern , and with
tboWnbash. By the latter arrangements
the Santa Fo runs direct into St. Louis ,
making connection at Bucklin , Mo. This is
of creat advantage to the west , as iron , boor ,
clothing and much merchandise comes from
St. Louis.
A case of rank injustice done to a witness
has Just como to light horo. On February 11
Kobort Phelan was arrested for the murder
of Arino Johunsen. Thrco witnesses to the
killing were locked up. No information was
illed by the prosecuting attorney till March
20. The three and prisoner were not ar
raigned to plead till the 30th , and the next
day entered a plea of not guilty , but for
some reason did not nuainappear In court till
May 0. They were then returned to jail
withoat any action on the ctisc. It
was finally placed on the calendar
on May 13 , and subscqrently sot
for trial on July 15. Two of the witnesses ,
Andrew J. Johnson and Charles Halvuracn ,
are sailors. The other , Edward Orlandi , is
a. lumber mill laborer. Not being nblo to
furnish ball , all wcro locked up. They have
been confined over since ns common crimin
als , and thrown into cells with murderers ,
burglars and others. Johnson says that
when first locked up they were thrown Into
the dark hole for three weeks. , which was
flooded at times from the winter ruins.
Later Johnson secured a position in the
kitchen , and favored his comrades as much
as possible. Nearly all the Judges nro taking
a vacation , and it is moro than likely that
the cuso will again bo postponed and thcso
men lantrulsh in prison another month for
being innocent witnesses to a crime. The
case will bo called to the attention of the
grand jury , and nn investigation" is probable.
Half n dozen big suits to recover ne.irly
ono half of the city have been filed during
the past week. Part are based on old Span
ish concessions- part on pure gall none
but .what have boon exploded before , and
they are looked upon as mainly blackmailing
schemes. Still , they have had influences on
the rcalcstato market.
The Anglo-Pacific Steel company , nn
English syndicate capitalized at 510,000 , will
soon begin the erection of lareo iron and
stool works the first erected on the coast.
The iron works will bo located at Seattle ,
where are largo mines coal , iron and lime.
Thrco millions will bo expended building
furnaces. A steel plant will also be located
at Yellejo , on Upper San Francisco bay ,
thirty mites floin this city , where ? 1 000,000
will be expended. Vallojs gives lands and
.wharfage. The iron works at Seattle are the
first to bo established wust of Doavor.
Lack of business methods ia the naval de
partment at Washington is shuwn in the case
of the discharged seamen from the wracked
steamers at Samoa. The paymaster of the
Vandalia was drowned nud the books do-
stroyod. Upon arrival hero many wcro dis
charged after only receiving pay from the
date of the disaster to nrrivalx while all

STANUFOUD'S - .
IU-.MOVAL.
The position of the department of justice
with regard toUho removal of Chief Justice
Standford , of Utah , was found out to-day to
bo this : Charges affecting Standfora's stand
ing ns n judge wcro forwarded to the depart
ment by lawyers und citizens of Utun with
out regard to party. They maintained m the
ntlldavit not only that ho persistently refused -
fused to carry out to the letter and spirit
of the Edmund's
anti-pollgamy law ,
but that by training and tempera
ment ho was wholly without the
qualifications of the just judgo. When thcso
charges were brought to the -attention of the
attorney-general ho began n searching inves
tigation. .He found that not only those
charges , but others fully us serious could bo
proved. Ho , therefore , after consideration
with the president , called for Standfoi-d's
resignation ; that Mr. Cleveland's oppolntoo
refused to send , then his removal wns de
manded. Ho could not prevent that. Ex-
Cniof Justice Kane , who was removed by
Cleveland to make room for Standford , the
Now York ward worker , was recommended
for his old position by the same lawyers and '
citizens of the territory without regard to
party , and ho was promptly unpointed. Ad
vices rncaived ut the department from Utah
indicate that the policy of President Harri
son and Attorney-General Miller is
thoroughly approved by all good citizens who
bcliovo in the enforcement of the null-
poloijamy law , uud the ultimate extinction of
Mot-monism.
ONLY OXE 1'ATltIOT.
It was very dull to-day , with the president
and postmaster-general out of town. Only
ono real patriot called at the white house.
Ho Is mucft disappointed that General Hur
risen was not there to receive him.
"Let mo see Llgo Halford , " ho said , "ho
will do all right. I don't care who I see if I
get the office I want. "
Ho did see the private secretary and wont
away in good spirits. Whether ho gets that
oftlco or not Is another question.
THIS CI1N3U3 KML'l'01T1'3i
The question whether the census bureau
shall ba put under the jurisdiction of the
civil sorvieo commission or not is not
answered yet. Superintendent Porter main
tains that it is a serious legal question
whether the secretary oi the interior could
delegate powers which congress had dis
tinctly and in terms conferred upon him to
use in otucr branches of the government.
The question , ho says , Is not ono of the ex
amination of clerks , but-one of far greater
import , namely , the methods of appointing
these clerks. As the law now stands , mid
according to Senator Halo as it was in
tended to Btund , the appointment ol
ull the employes of the bureau is veiled in
the secretary of the interior and the super
intendent of the census , the latter recom
mending mid the former approving. Should
the civil service commission carry its point ,
the method of the appointments would bo ab
solutely changed This is the legal aspect ol
the case. The other question , Mr. Portot
says , la thatol temporary employment. The
maximum number of clerks employed in the
Tenth cci.sus was in March , 1881. 15,000. In
March , 18S2 , 1,200 hod boon dis
charged. About two thousand will
probably bo employed upon the
next census. Within ono year 1,500
or 1,700 will have to bo dismissed. Superin
tendent Porter contends that it would ho
outrageous to allure applicants here frotn
Maine and California and leave them
stranded. Ho is not worried about the out
come of the controversy. Secretary Noble
Is on his side , und the members of the census
committee as well ns Senator Halo are be
lieved to bo with him.
