ST. Louis , July 17. If nil rumors which
nro rlfo In base ball circles Just now arc
true , the day Is rapidly approaching when
the crookedness and hlppodromlng tendencies
of base ball players will bring the national
pnuio Into such flagrant disrepute as to make
It a stench to the nostrils ot nil levers
of the manly sport. The 1'ost-Dlspalch
says that for some tlmo past there have boon
utorics alloat to the effect that certain mem
bers of the Hrown Stocking base ball club
wore not playing ball. Stories of crooked-
nest in tlio Drowns were flrst started when
they made that disastrous trip to Kansas
City. It was tlion , nnd" Is still ,
generally believed hero that the team
purposely lost those games to force
Von Dor Aho to remit the fines ho
hnd imposed on Robinson , who had refused
to play unless it was remitted. Still , nt that
time no ono thought that the club wus losing
for a monetary consideration , although there
were stories afloat that they had Koblnson
Dcalnst them In the pool-room. Even those
who made thcso charges didn't claim that the
players removed vo play off by any other mo-
tlvo than to force Von Dor Aha to Robin
son's terms.
The men ncrnlnst whom charges are made
are Pitcher Kinp nnd Third liateman Latham.
Instance * are cited where King and Lntham
have been responsible for the loss of Knmos ,
nnd ono gntnn Is cited where the circumstances
were , to say the least , suspicious , between the
Browns and the Athlcts. King was In the
box for the first two Innings , nnd a well-
known sport was backing the Athletics
heavily. King's ' pitching was so execrable
that ho was taken out and Stlvolts substi
tuted. At thnt ] K ) hit , although the Athletic *
were ahead , the sport commenced hedging
nnd gave odds to got his money protected.
Tbo lirowns won by n score of 13 to ID.

ailtcholl Says II n Didn't Go Uncle on
Kilrnin.
NEW YOIIK , July 17. [ Soocial Toleernm to
THE UKB. ] It took good eyesight' to recog
nize in the tunned , dust-begrimed counte
nance poked out of a Blcolter street se-iond-
story window yesterday the ever natty
Charley Mitclioll. Hut it was ho , though
after nights and days of playing tramp and
preacher to reach Now York.
"Jalco , " said Mitchell , "wasn't anywhere
no-r his perfect form when the light began.
That's nil I can say on that point. But I
want you to deny thnt I loft Kilrain's com
pany when ho was in bad shape. I couldn't
sic buck in the car , you know , and hold him
in mv lap. I had to bo in front to see that
wo didn't get nrrcstud. It's proof that I did
my work , or wo wouldn't both ho hero , or I
mean I wouldn't bo here. "
Mitchell refused to say anything about
Kilraln'e whereabouts , butdcniod that cither
his own wlfo or Mrs. Kilraln was in town.
It is authoritatively rcuorted that Sullivan
loft Chicago for Now York lust night , In
that case ho will arrive hero some time tnls
evoking. This course , it is said , has been
pursued by tlio champion on the ndvico of
his friends In this city , who assured him that
ho could now come on hero without any fear
of arrest.
Stakeholder Al Crldgo was notified last
night by Referee Fitzpatrick to turn over
the stakes of the great light into the hands
of Sullivan's backers , and this ceremony
will bo gone through with as soon as the
parties to it can bo brought together.
Kilrnin Arrives in Unltttnore.
BALTIMOIIK , Md. , July 17. Jake Kilrnin ,
who arrived in Baltimore yesterday after
noon , has entirely recovered from the effects
of his battle. Ho does not show a murk of
nny kind. In sneaking about the great light ,
Kilraln said squarely that ho was whipped ,
but thought he was largely the victim of cir
cumstances. Whun asked directly if ho
thought ho had been drugged , ho said , "No. "
Johnny Murphy , when asked thu same ques
tion , answered that thcro was something
wrong , but that for the present his tongue
was tied , but when the tlmo came ho ex
pected to make some important revolutions.
In speaking about the light , Kilrain
said : "I know I had not boon
trained properly and was not in fit condition
to light Sullivan , but if 1 had not gone into
the ring people would have said I was a
coward , und I mount to light if I was killed.
The crowd thcro was against me , and the
referee , I think , while a square man. was
partial to Sullivan and know nothing about
the rules. Hoth ho und the crowd wore all the
tlmo tolling mo to go up to Sullivan
nnd 1 went , knowing T would only bo knocked
down. Of course the referee hnd no right
to say u word , and under the rules I could
run all around the ring , but there was no ono
but llttlo Murphy hero to coach tnc , und I
blindly wont up nnd took my medicine.
The fact that though I was knocked
down repeatedly , but not knocked
out , shows Sullivan's terrible blows
did not have thu power some paoplu pup-
posed thi'y did. I could have stood up longer ,
but Donovan throw up the sponge in the ex
citement , being afraid I would got killed.
My blows for some reason or other did not
seem to have any force. My nrmb scorned
numb , but what was the matter I do not for
tlio life of mo itnow. "

"TOO MUCH UUTXCIl.
The New York Market Greatly Over-
siookod "With the Article.
Nmv YOHK , July 17. The largo accumula
tion of butter In this city nt present is al
most without a prcccdcntfor there are about
18,000,000 pounds of this article stored in
this city and immediate vicinity and the sup
ply is increasing ut the rate of about 8,030-
000 pounds a wook. The supply from this
state Is largo , but the great bulk dt the sup
ply of butter comes from ttie western states.
The avorngo quantity exported from Now
York eaiSh weeit has been about 500,000
pounds for this season of the year. During
the past six days 850,000 pounds were
exported. The amount of butter consumed
in this city and vicinity per week Is about
10,000,000 pounds. Most of the produce
merchants here are refusing to buy any
more butter on their own account , nnd will
only agree to hold and Bell it on account of
shippers , and many of the latter have given
instructions to the receivers hero not to soil
below a certain figure. Exporters would bo
willing to speculate If they could got goods
cheap , and many receivers think this would
relieve thn trade. Should shippers persist
in tholr obstinacy it is said a break in the
market will occur before- loner unless tucro is
a falling off in receipts. Much butter is
damaged by the heat on the way.

created a good deal of interest in this city ,
for if Plokett is still ulivo and is appre
hended , the question is whether ho can bo
further punished. Ho has boon declared
legally dead , nnd the case wilt prove oiiu un

haying had sovcraj interviews with Foy. It
Is stated on gopd Authority that Mr. Fey has
given some vn\u0la \ testimony concerning
the actions of tUo.bamp which led up to the

ho is credited with tolling Is In nub
stance that nt the second mooting over

lower of Lo Cnron nnd a British spy , nnd
with having sot himself to break up the
Clan-na-Gaol , by creating dissentlons in its
ranks. Ho denounced Croum at n lire-
brand , a disorgnnlzor nnd u British spy.
Coughlln created the most intense excite
ment , uproar nnd confusion , which is In
describable. This gave John F. Hoggs , In
his effort to restore order , an opportunity to
make a speech , and In doing so.
according to Foy's story , ho mudo a still

very close to him. From the state attorney's

section of the country , and one of the promoters -
motors in the formation of the alleged $20-

and Costcllo , got fairly down to business at
their Sherman house quarters this morning
and made considerable progress in cxnmln <
Ing complaints , petitions and reports in rela
tion to the order in the Northwest.
"Tho charter of the first assembly ol
Franco , " said Powderly to u reporter , "was
prepared this morning and started on Its waj
to the old country. It was glvon to Mrs ,
Barry , the general director and instructor In
womnu'8 work , nnd nho started for Philadel
phia and thence to Paris. The first assembly
has been organized for some tlmo , but wo
have hold b.tck the charter , preferring to
send by n special messenger. "
"Wns there nny danger of It being de
stroyed If carried by the malll"
"Well not particularly , hut the Froncl :
assembly is working in secret and it Is a
question whether even the names of the
members will bo made public. "
" ] R it under a prohibitory ban ! "
"No , but they prefer to work secretly. "
Is anything being done or will anything be
done by your board to brlna back the seced
ing members of the Knights of Labor whc
have organized a rival ordorl"
"Oh , no ; wo do not want them back. We
are stronger without them. They formed
the disturbing element in the order nnd we
were glad to have them go. They wore
hostile to the principles of the Knights ol
Labor. Now that they nro out , wo have nc
hostile feelings toward thoin nnd are per
fcctly satisfied to have them succeod. It u
not our purooso to do them any Injury.
Then there was n general runnlnc talk on
the course to bo pursued by the order to
solve the problem of labor troubles , and il
developed that no single line will bo fol
lowed but a series of educational efforts , the
most Important of which is to ballot foi
reform.
'That something of this kind is necessary
can bo seen by the state of affairs in my own
state , Pennsylvania , " said Mr. Powdorly ,
"There In the cool Holds the laborer is under
the Rrlnd of the millstones , nud every effort
has been made to convince him that his
remedy is in his own hands nt the polls , but
when election day comes ho walks up as
usual for the old parties and for men who go
to congress nnd soil out. These laborers
can not plead ignorance. Every man over
eighteen years of ago bus had a chance tc
post himself , and why Is It he
votes ngulnst his own Inte
rest ? It Is a question of easy solution
to the thinkers and readers of to-day , and
the onlv remedy Is the secret ballot , where
the citizen can vote without fearing to ex
press his own feelings nnd bring misery
upon himself by his voto. Several bills
bavo been prepared fior the development of
this theory , but not one covers tlio require
ments. It is only a pretense so fur. "

[ Special telegram to TUB BKK. ] The Indian *
mot in council among themselves early tuls
morning , nnd soon after came ever to the
pnvilllon , where they were mot by the com
missioners. There were nboui the same
number as nt thn council on Monday , though
now they scorned to have different loaders In
two half-breeds , who looks positions in the
front ranks , nnd Jurlng the council hold a flru
control of the Indians nnd prompted them lu
nil their sentiments , an expressed In thuir
speechos. This is the llral agouoy at which
the mixed bloods and squuw moti have not
a 11 been In favor ot the bill unanimously
The ranches of some of thcso nion nro on the
laud , which It is thought probably animates
tholr opposition. The strong probabilities
nro that the Indians , If loft alone , would bo
favorably disposed.
Straight Houd , captain of the pollco , gave
the Indians a short talk bcforo the talkln ;
began. Some difference of opinion soemot
to exist as to the c.auso of the action in ooun
ell , but this was settled and the council wa
begun by the asking of some questions am
their answers by Governor Foster. Whothn
They Understood the optional features of the
severally provision is not clear. While
Swnu , Charger. Crow Eaglo. Hump 1Mb am
Bring Grubsnoko at length about the varlou
provisions of the bill and asked numcrou
questions concerning the boundary lines
Swnn began his talk by saying :
"All of the Indian race who have boot
brought upon this land are full , of jealous
spite and meanness. They nro all rascals
and nil will toll a Ho. You are a great pee
pie nnd have a great name , but I have no
given you my answer , "
Ho then dwelt ut length upon the promise
bf the treaty of ISSO mid 1STO , speaking o
the boundary lines ur.d expressing dlssatls
faction with the size of the reservation ro
maltilng to them. He concluded his talk bv
saying : " 1 am not satisfied with this bll
and do not think 1 cun sign the treaty. "
Following White Swnn wore the Indian
named , all of whom expressed themselves a
not favorable to the bill , though ono notlo
nblp feature was the lukewarm way li
which the declinations were expressed
there being but two in all who absolutely
declared themselves against the treaty.
When the council hail boon prolonged unti
about 2 o'clock the Indians nskod for an ad
Jourument for u short tlmo , us they were
gottmg tired and hungry. The council thci
broke up to assoiublo at a later hour upon the
ringing of the boll at the agbncy.
So far all expressions have boon agalns
the bill , but It Is not yet thought to bo doiln
Holy settled.
General Crook Informed your corrospon

to the result of the negotiation
hero. Some strong effort will bo made to

mixed bloods who have been no bitter in
their opposition. This afternoon nnd even

the outside , and the real situation will doubt
less bo known In the morning. Mujor War

RELIGIOUS INTOXICATION.
Services and Practices Which Under-
tntno the NcrvoH mill llcnlth.
There is no doubt , says the London
Hospital , that human beings often be
come intoxicated , although they maybe
bo total ubstiiinors. Indcud , nscoiicitnn
in ono direction often tends to excess
in iinothor. While wo nro grutofu' ' for
the improvements which niivo tukon
pliico of late in the methods of observ
ance of Good Friday and Easter Sun day
( in the established church ) , wo cannot
conceal from ouraolvoa certain ditnpera
attaching to modern religious observ
ances. Some mothers very rigidly ob
ject to their daughters , for example- ,
unending the whole of Good Friday in
church without proper food or BUS-
lonmico of any kind. One lady states
that her daughter commenced at 0
o'clock iu the morning and remained
in church until f > o'clock in the after
noon. After an hour's interval aho re
turned to the church again and re
mained there until late at night , llo-
contly n service , entitled "Tonebnu , "
has been started by certain of the
clergy , which consists of the pradual
extinguishment of all lights as the
service proceeds , until the whole
building is enveloped in dark
ness. Mothurs , quito rightjy , ob
jcot to the youth of both
Boxes attending cuch services , and they
regard them as calculated to roinlrd-
duce all the vice and evil attaching to
revivalist services of past times. What
with communions from 5 a. m. onward ,
watchingH , confessions , church duties ,
and the multifarious borvices which
certain clergymen now endeavor to in
duce young ladies to undertake , the
happiness of mnny families and indi
viduals is becoming undurminod.
For a clergyman who is bound by
solemn vows to inr.uloato morality ,
Bobrioty , moderation , virtue and a ton-
tier regard for others , to UBO Ilia church
for organizing and enforcing religious
excess in every direction is to prove
hinitaolf an unfaithful steward , danger
ous to thn best interests of youth and
old alike. If some olieulc Is not put to
the unwholesome excitements fostered
by certain of the eiorgy , many a daugh
ter's health will bo undermined , if her
life is not ruined , through the inHuonco
of her HO-ciillcd father in Uod , In the
Interests of morality , ot sobriety , of
health , of sober sense , and of tlio
national Ufa wo protest against reli
gious oxccbsosof nil kinds , and wo look
upon tlio clerical intoxication lioro re
ferred to as a social ' danger which , if
unchecked , must'boon result in the
degradation of inany of the rising

Nnw YOIIK , Juli1 17. | Special Tologfam
to Tun Uuu.1 There Is some interesting
gossip current nnont domocratlo politico. A
rumor goes that n deal has boon made which
shelves ox-t'rcsiilont Cleveland permanently
nnd places ox-Secretary William C. Whitney
In the lead ns the democratic presidential
candidate In 1303. Last week there was nn
influx of democratic loaders from Ohio to
sco Colonel Unco , of the democratic national
committee , and tholr presence hero Is con
sidered by shrewd Clovnlnnd democrats ni
another Unit in the ctmlit of evidence that
the deal hns been made.
A prominent Cleveland democrat said
to-day ho hait every ronson to tjoltovo thnt
the machine democrats have dropped Mr.
Cleveland , His story of why the ex-presi
dent was dropped Is the mime ns that
glvon by the rumor. Senator Gorman At
Maryland was nt llrst uppo.scd to the elec
tion of Colonel yrlco as chairman of the
democratic national committee. Ho felt that
the oolonol represented ttio free tr.ido Ideal
ot Cleveland nnd ho did not wish to have
another campaign with the s.xmu Issue ns
thnt of 1&33. II is opposition to Colonel Unco
was assuming dollulto shape when the lu.td- .
crs got together and mapped out a course that
placated the Maryland senator and made him
an enthusiastic supporter of Hrico. The
deal wus that Whitney should bavo the sup
port of tlio committee fur the presidency in
1S'J3 and Colonul Hrico should bo elected
chairman and then should make n strong
fight for the senate from Ohio. If ho fulled
to succeed Senator Payne , then ho was to bo
supported by the committee for the vica-
presidouoy.
Matters have worked welt since the alleged
deal. Cnlnnol Hrico was clouted chairman
and Senator Gorman was hearty in his sup
port. The Uandnll-Gormun wing has won
ever prominent Cleveland democrats by
promising to sco that they are well tukou
care of if the national ticket wins In 1SIU.
Ex-Prosldont Cleveland still thinks his
most influential friends are for him and they

While the senator refrained from divulg
ing the nature of his business , curtain movo-
munts pointed strongly to street railway
affairs. Very soon uftor ho reached the city
certain members of that corporation were In
close consultation with him.
Speaking of Washington , ho referred to
