Cable Special to TUB UBE. I Both slilci of
the Thames arn talking iilnut to-morrow's
race for thoehnmplonshlp of the world be-
uvcon O'Connor nnd Sonrlo. Trees on the
ban Its , pebbles ou the shore , oven the mud In
the river bottom , uro interested In the event.
Imagine , then , If you can , how much It both

championship nn.ong the world's greatest
prizes. Homomber , too , that it requires

thusiasm in these \vty > have seen Hnnlan win
In n style that scorned to stamp him as a dlf-
forcntcluy from his followers ; who havosucn
Hcnch , ivho defeated Hanlnn , send
such an oarsman ns Gaudaur to the roar ,
who have scon chumplons almost beyond
number rise and full. Still , pcoplo who have
scun all this look lorwiird to tliu O'Couuor-
Scarlo ruco with us much enthusiasm as If
the championship races on the Thames oc
curred four days ago. Hotting was 15 to 10
on Scnrlo , nnd for thirty minutes the odds
ruled 0 to 4 in bis favor. The odds were too
big to suit the Australians , whoso pockets
were lined with gold. They were too small
to null the Canadians. The luttor wanted 2
to 1 , but the odds gradually grow smullcr ,
until to-day tiioy vanished and even money
was the cry.
BjTha start Is to bo by mutual consent. To
such u start O'Connor is unaccustomed. Ho
Is a quick qturtur. To htm the pistol shot
moans to got a way , but of what usa are his
quick Blurting powers when ho is compelled
to wait until his cdmpotitor is ready to got
Ho wanted a pistol shot or a word-of-moutu
start , but was overruled , his representatives
being greatly in the minority at the meeting
at which the preliminaries were agreed upon.
Then , too , O'Connor has never rowed upon
tklu water. All his races have been rowed
upon still water. Searlo is at
homo on tldo water. In a race bo
twccn men who are In strength and
skill evenly watched thcso drawbacks should
count in the betting , but they have failed to
do so , and to-night the Indications are that
O'Connor will bo the fnvonto before the men
nro sent on their Journey of four and one-half
miles.
The race will bo rowed on what is known
ns a dead tide. It- will bo dead only in com
parison wlt'ii a spring tide , which ! au current
of from four to five nnloi an hour. To-tnor-
row the tide will run /it u rate of about thrco
inllos an hour. Watermen who huvo for
weeks been looltmg at both men In practice
expect the winner to innko wonderful time.
The fastest tlmo ever a chainpisnohlp course )
was rmido a few years ugo by Charles
Brightly , who covered it in somothniET over
twcnt.v-two minutes with the aid of a fast
tide. It is expected that to-morrow's winner
will cross the finish on a dead tlUo inside of
twonty-thrco minutes.
In that race each man will bo accompanied
by ono of the London Rowing club's fast
twelve oared boats. Each boat will bo
manned by experienced watermen. It was
supposed that an oight- < arid cutter would
bo sufficient to show the wuy that Is , BOVCII
men at the oars and a guide , commonly
known as itho man who taltes him up , " but
this proved n mUtako. Such a cultor and
crow wont out with O'Connor to day. It
contained Wallace Koss , Gcorcro Lee ,
Charles Ino , Tom Gibson , LSuba.ir aud 13111
East. The cutter crow laid down to its
work. As soon us O'Connor straightened
out the man in the bow yelled to his crow to
put beef into their strokes. They aid so. He
yelled for moro coal until every furnace
was red hot , but all to no purpose. The single -
glo scullor wont away with every stroke.
and it was demonstrated on the spot that
seven oarsmen couldn't carry u guide and
coxswain as dead weight and show the way
to the champion of America.
Both sides are in doubt. Each thinks its
man has a cliunco nnd that ubout describes
the situation. Most of-tho Australians have
bet their money excepting ono party , who
carried about 7,000 , and that has boon
placed , or very nearly so. Edwin Goo car
ries about 10,000 , which ho was commis
sioned to wujcr by Spencer Bros. , of
Australia. Ho is waiting for better terms.
Last night both Scurlo and O'Connor ' were
In splendid tieulth utid line spirits. Searlo
weighed 1ft ) pounds In his bare pelt. O'Con
nor weighed ono pound lighter , nnd none of
Ills friends would have grumbled had ha
weighed four or live pounds moro.
The men uro to bo In their bo.its at a quar
ter past 1 o'clock in the afternoon. Only
four steam vessels will bo permitted to follow
"
low the raco.
Ahoavycrop of challenges Is likely to
follow to-Ciiv's ' victory and defeat , Guorgo
Buboar is the first In the field. Ho will to
morrow challenge Nell Muitorson to race
over tiiu championship course for 200 a
side. Ho had the challenge In his pocket to
night.

I'AIIIB , Sopt. 8. [ Now York Horuld Cable
Special to Tim HUE. } To fully appreciate
the deciideni-o of Uouinnglsm It U nccesnury
to contrast the present with the recent past.
The. difference Ustrlhlnif , Nolongnrdo we see
the royalist deputies courting him en musso.
Thu honor of being permitted lo figure us a
Uoulungcr candidate , u patronage which a
few mouths ago seemed go precious , so
essentialIs now regarded us rather comprom
ising. Several conservative candidates
Jnc < iucs Peon , ono of the most Inlluontlul
members , the Comic dos Douze ninoni- them
huvo protested against their namei nppour-
ing on the list of eiuulidiUos whom Uoulungur
specially recommended to his supporters.
This Is significant. Men who yesterday
eought lioujaugcr'u patronugo nnd repudi
ated it to-duy , have come to their opinion
after carefully studying tlio public sentiment
of thu country und sounding the ground
they nro to stand on ut the election. Tnut
the popularity which the chief of the nu-
tloiml party enjoyed for a period has vuni
Uliod Into tno air , Houluugor hlttsa'.f canr.ot
but pcrcelvo. His star Is wauug , even U
it has not already ceased to twinkle ,
It ho is uot awfully blind
ho must BOO that hla flight , the revelations ol
the high court of trial nnd his persistent re
fusal or inability to clear Ultiuulf of the
stains upon bin honor have done him no
slight duumgo throughout the country. The
K-Uor bo wroiu u few duyn vb'O to M. TirurJ
r
was evidently Intended to provoke a reaction
of public opinion In his favor. It completely
failed lu Its effect , however , from several
causes. Firstly , it cnmo too Into. Then
Iloutnngcr has , since his condemnation , re
peatedly declared that ho would huvo no
other judge than the nation. Now
that ho asserts his readiness to ap
pear before n court-martini , it looks
ns if ho had less confidence than
hcrotofore In thn Judgment of the nation.
Furthermore , Boulanger must % huvo been
axvaro that the Inuida of the government
were tlod , Insomuch that it could not , oven
if It HO desired , ignore the verdict of the
higher court and appoint another tribunal to
try the case.
Taken altogether , Uoulangor's letter Is
not worthy of sorloiH consideration. The
bravo general has no desire to return to
Franco before the election to expose him
self to the divers personal inconveniences
which await him when ho sots foot on
French soil. All ho wanted was to persuade
the siniplo souls among Ills cohorcnts that ho
was burning with n desire to clear himself
nnd that the government refused to glvo
him a chance to do so. The fact that ho has
recourse to the electoral dodge proves that
ha believes his position to bo anything but a
good ono , nnd that his chances of success are
daily diminishing.

DKK.J "Bird" Upton , of Uolvldoro , this

The nrrcst was made on a telegram from
Huron Dak. , directed to u constable nt Bel-

Trains Collide.
FHEMONT , Nob. , Soot. 8. ( .Special to Tun
Ben. ] Another disastrous collision of trains
occurred this morning about 3.30 o'clock at
the crossing of the Union Pacific una Fre
mont , Elkhorn & Missouri Vulloy tracks near
Ames , six miles west of Fremont. It was ex
actly the same hour and the circumstances
precisely similar to the collision which oc
curred there Saturday morning ono week
ago , except in this ciso the Union Pacific
train was going wost. They were both
frclphts , the Union Pacific balng the second
section of No. 27 , and the Elkhorn train the
freight from Superior. The latter bad the
right of way and wus pulling ever the cross
ing when the Union Paoilio train crashed
into it , striking it five cars back of
the engine. Engineer Monuhou and
Fireman Grovy , of the Union
Pacific , seeing the Impending dan

From Grnnt County.
WHITMAN , Nob. , Sept. 8. [ Special to THE
BBC. 1 Grunt county has probably had its
share of the western boom this year and
shows a remaritably advanced Improvement
In many respects. The hardy and Irrepres
sible granger is constantly Invading the ter
ritory und encroaching on the rights of the
heretofore unmolested cattle kings , who
have been long combined to discourage the
settlement of this county ; but to no avail ,
since actual test has fully demonstrated thai
the soil is capable of garden vegetables und
and field cereals in paying Quantities.
This part of Nebraska has long been
classed with the "arid regions , " but has be
come incorrect , since the rainfall this season
has boon equal to many of the eastern coun
ties , and at no time did crops suffer from
drought.
Corn is , at present , the principal produc
tion uud promises to yield moro than the
most sanguine dared to hope for. The early
corn is out of the wuy of frost , which could
only damage late sod corn ,
Oats promise to become a paying crop , but
are not yet cultivated to any considerable
extent.
This Is ono of the finest cattle ranges In
the west , und Is admirably adapted tu raising
small herds of horses , cattle or sheeu , being
well watered bv the Middle Loup uud Dis
mal rivers , und numerous small lakes ,
Hay , which is Indlspenstblo to stock rais
ing , is superabundant , many of the fine val
leys yielding four to flvo tons per acre.
The county bus ono paper , republican In

NO WONDER GUASJ WAS SICK.
He Usoil n Gnrfila of Kcrosuno Oil
For n Swelled Thront.
BISMVRCK , N. D. , Sent. 8. [ Special Tele
gram to THE Buc.While there has been
altogether too much moonshine in the report
sent out to the effect that Sitting Hull had
men arrested on suspicion of havintr poisoned
Chief John Grass , the fact remains that
there Is no little suspicion and distrust
among the Indians. Grass was not poisoned.
Agent McLauphlln lias jast returned from
the bcdsido of Grass , who has been at the
point of death for some time , and reports the
great chief convalescent. He states nu-
Uioritatlvoly that Grass was overcome by the
licat , and as ono of the effects a swelling was
formed in his throat. To reduce , the swell
ing tie used a gargle of koroscno oil freoly.
and the strata was so great that it caused
hemorrhage , which came near sending the
qrcat chief of tbo Sioux nation to the
happy hunting grounds. Ilo is now resting
well , and , in the opinion of Agent McLaughlin -
lin , will recover.
The report that Sittinf ? Bull had been ar
rested for poisoning Grass was a most ma
licious and mischievous report , started by
some sensationalist , and can accomplish no
good. Thcro is sufficient distrust and sus
picion against the obsth erous old kicker
without resorting to uiitrfutU to Increase his
unpopularity. The fact la , the Indians adore
Grass , and since his prostration'havo given
themselves completely up to their supersti
tious. Many of them are only too willing to
believe tnat ho had bean poisoned at Sitting
Bull's Institution , and at urlvato councils
hold by the immediate friends of Grass , Uull
wus denounced in the most savage terms.
iVs for Sitting Bull's attitude , ha looks
upon the illness of his victorious rival with
c lm indifference , but neve r foils to express
his sincere regrets when in the presence of
the friends of Grass.
During the past few days the Indians'
superstitions have taken a now and novel
turn. Hundreds of them are now convinced
that the illness of Grass is the just retribu
tion visited upon them by the Great Spirit
for having sig'ied the treaty deeding their
lands to the whites , and are wondering if it
is possible for them to withdraw their signa
tures and unao their evil work. Ono old
squaw , wuiling und betnoanlug as she
cumo from tno homo of the stricken
chief , exclaimed between her sobs : "On ,
why did we eivo away our lands und rob our
children I" This expressed the query in the
minds of a largo faction of the Indians , who ,
under the leadership of Grass , had consented
to the opening ot the reservation , but who
now believe that tliey are to bo made to suf
fer for their terrible mistake. Here It is
thought that Sitting Bull has done the poi
soning. He did not poison John Grass , hut
bo has taken advantage of his sudden illness ,
following so closely upon his grand
victory in inducing the Indians to
sign , to poison the minds of the Indians
with the sumo mysterious charm and inexhaustible -
haustiblo cunning which made him their
great loader during the Ouster campaign und
gave him credit for u victory which ho never
won. Ho Is now monopolizing the friend
ship of the Great Spirit and loses no time to
convince the superstitious warriors that ho
was in the right when he opposed the open
ing of the reservation. As proof ho points
with awe und crocodile regrets to the man
ner In which the Great Spirit has prostrated
Grass , but in all probability his plans will
corao to naught , for ; ho orospoct of Grass1
recovery is good. If Grass should now die
Siitlne Uull and his "Great Spirit" would
bo u strong team with the reds.

"No ono Knows , " continued MM. Logan ,
'tho ' pain Mr. Halstoad Im3 caused our

When Goner.il Logan wont Into politics ho

of that soi t. Mr. llnlste.ul says my son mis
takes him. Wodonotuud wo never can forgot

Mr. Halslcud's ' light upon him , and it was
, ho last public matter that occupied Ins

sensitive ubout It , Hubtc.ul is u grumbler ,
ind ho has never boon anything else. Ho
ins always sldod with the critical rcpub-

disloyalty to his party by these leaders whom
Mr. Hnlstcad has likewise attacked. Every
body knows what ho nald of Grant , of Lin

; crs General Logan was forced to make
public. As a republican , I am glad ho was

believe ho Is a good republican. Ho sup-

sailed nway skyward a lad aged twelve
years , named Eddlo Hall , became antunglcd
n the ropes attached to the trapeze. Ills
neck got caught in the half noozo nnd the
joy could not possibly extricate himself. He
clung desperately to the ropes with both
muds and by winding them around both
arms mutinied to suvo himself from fulling
uud from choking to dciith.
The balloon rose over 1,000 , feet and drifted
several miles uway to the southeast , finally
doscoadinir , light as n feather , letting the lad
down without n scratch. Thu boy was
frightened nearly to death , but soon recov
ered after finding himself safely on the

Prof. Redmond did not go up at all , for if
lie had , his weight would have choked the
loy to death. When ho saw the lad was
caught ho let go the ropes and remained on
Iho round. The ascension was witnessed
by over 0,000 people. Great , excitement pru-
vailed during the tlmo the balloon was in the

Hnngt Bnngll HniiRllI
A succession of pistol shots rang out on
ho still night nlr and three men lay \vrlth-
utf In uifony , ono mortally nnd the others
'cry seriously woumtcd.
It happened last night about 10 o'clock In
Tom Mngtilro's saloon on South Thirteenth
trcet , just outside the city limits , In what Is
cuown ns "Oklahoma , " or "No Man's
-and , " and Constable At Musterman was
ho party doing the shooting , whllo John
ones , Jim McCarty ana Jnito Vunlsluus
vera the man who were shot.
Then cuuio cries of " 1CI11 the of a
1" "Stamp the lifo out of him I" nnd
other exclamations of like ilk , followed by n
romondous sculllo , from which u man bruised
and bleeding miimigod to escape nnd scelc
refuge In the trees hard by.
Ycstnrday was a sort of gala day In the
district mentioned. Tom Magulro , n South
Dmuhu mail , had purchased n saloon of ono
liaison , and had udvortlsod ugrundoponlog ,
rlo had u crowd composed m the main of
traders , who uro wonting oh South Thlr-
.centh. . A very tough crowd they arc u * a
rule , nnd are generally on the lookout for
trouble.
They got It.
Albert Mastcrnmn , the constable , is em-
> loycd by the three saloonkeepers In Oltla-
loma to deep order. "Ho has boon on duty
there for some time. For the lust three
11
weeks ho has had trouble with u crowd of
non who have visited the place for the pur-
lese of "doing him up. "
aOno week ago yesterday they went up to
vingulro's place and raised a row by shout ,
rig and using profane nnd indecent language ,
'or which Mustcrmun ejected two of thorn.
This scorned to anger the crowd , and last
light about u , dozen of them wont up and in-
'ormcd the constable that they proposed to
'fix him. " Ho argued that they hud best
lot try it , nnd was promptly knocked down
'or his pains. Then the trouble began with
the result as ubovo stated.
After the shooting Mustorman was beaten
and Incited into a jolly , nnd his Ufa was saved
only by his activity in making his oscapo.
His ellort wus ttial of a man who saw death
staring him in the face , and when ho at , last
saw that ho was out of harm's way the re-
uctiou sot in , nnd by the tune ho had reached
the city ho was BO weak ho could scarcely
speulr. Ho tells the following story :
"I am employed in Oklahoma to keep order
at tlio tlireo saloons owned by Tom Mugulro ,
Flannery and the old place still owned by
Hanson. Magillro had n dance last nlggt ,
and 1 was there us usual. This" gang of men ,
who last Sunday cave mo some , trouble ,
came up about ( I o'clock mid said they
were going to fix mo. I advised
them ilot to try It on. and then they said
that If I would sot up the boor it would bp
all right , but I told thorn I would not buy'
anything. Then two of thorn knocked mo
down and ran out. Pretty sonn they ca'ino
back with about , eight or ten moro and said ,
'Now wo have got you'you s of a b , '
and made for me. I pulled my gun und told
them lh.it if they touclicd mo there would bo
trouble , but they kept couiiuir und 1 began
firing. 1 huld my pistol low , becauao I did
not want to kill anyone , and kept on llrlng
until it was empty Then they knocked mo
down nnd kicked diitil I urn , as you see , a.
mass of cuts and oiuises , They hit mo with
knuckles , and one of thorn tried to chop mo
with a knife. 1 finally managed to escape
nnd wns arrested by two mounted policemen ,
who wcro sent out to look mo up , and that's
all I know about it. "
Mastcrman's appearance tcstillcd as to the
success his , opponents had. His head was
cut in several pluces. whllo his fnco ro-
somuled u piece of raw boof. His body was
one muss of bruises , and ho was , m fart , a.
used up man. It is doubtful if he gats out
again for some time.
Down ut the graders' camp of Ryan & Can-
fluid u different story was told. All the grad
ers were unanimous In sayinir that Mastermun
beuun the racket. Jim McCurty , one of the
wounded men , who was shot through the
scrotum and thigh , contended that ho was
only u bystander , und that the parries who
began the row were strangers to him. Mus-
tcrman says , however , that ho knows that
McCarty assaulted him. Jones is a young
boy , nnd was shot In the right leg. He , too ,
disclaimed any knowledge of wrong doing.
Vanishing could not speak.
McCarty and Jones , whllo painfully
wounded , will , in the opinion of City Physi I
cian Halpn , who attended thorn , recover in a
short time , while Vanlslaus' condition Is
critical. The ball which hit him entered
about an inch above the loft nlpplo , In
close proximity to the heart , nnd could not bo
located. Tlio young follow was in great ag
ony while the physician was prosont. The
snooting was done with a iii-culibro re
volver.
The Bc no of the shooting is a very hard
place , and is neither In Omaha nor South
Omaha ; houro the uuthoriticsof neither city
have any jurisdiction , The saloons are the
resorts of the toughest characters of both
places. Hanscu feared trouble yoa'torduy
afternoon and closed tit 5 o'clock.
All the parties Implicated will bo arrested
to-day with tlio exception of Vuiilslous , who
cannot possibly gpt away. Mugulro , the sa
loon man , will also bo arrested.
