The object of the meeting was the disposl-
.Ion of the DCS Molnes club's ' franchise , the
representative of that club having announced
thai they would pay off lliclr players after
yesterday's game and disband.
The subject was exhaustively discussed
iinl it was finally resolved to tender

city hnvlnp applied for the llrst vacancy.
A telegram was sent ( jrnnil Kaplds , notify-

HoprcBontatlvo Common also stated to

will go with the franchise.
Of the other two cities wanting the fran
chise , Lincoln nnd St. Joe , little Is expected
jusl nt present. St. .loo Is not wanted by Ihe
association nmnngcr.4 , as she has been tried
nnd proved a iju liter in the middle of the sea
son , and Lincoln does not exhibit nn abnor
mal eagerness to Jump into the
fray so far along in the summer.
The city securing the DCS Moiucs franchise
will , however , have un opportunity to see nn
abundance of good games before tlio end ot
Iho season , us they will have twenty-one"

Manager Maeullar's men may not rank very
high ns ball players , but ns kickers they are
topnotchers , with nobody else In sight.
A suspicion to this effect has been abroad
for some time , and conviction with terrible
force came in the progress of yesterday's
game with the Omahas.
There was bad blood from the start and
Bauswinu was the original cause of it. Ho
appeared with the team but was refused ad
mittance to the grounds by Manager Leon
ard. Thedisciplo of Ulogg was wrath } " . lie
purchased a 50 cent ticket -which ho
was compelled to give to a spectator
at a discount 10 cents off for casn as Man
ager Leonard still refused to allow him iusido
the ground.
After snorting u while , to the amusement
of some of the spectators who had witnessed
his larceny of the Sunday game , Biwsygavo
It up ns u bad job and loft the grounds ,
swearing that ho would at once commence n
varied assortment , of damage suits ugalnst
the local management.
But It wasn't plain , sailing with Dauswino
out of tlio way. DCS Mollies was still un
satisfied , nnd after n wrangler It was
decided to try the double umpire
net , with Bundle and Kom-h , tlio latter ono of
the Prohibition players , ofllclatlinr.
The game was Unnlly called , nifd for five
Innings proved a decidedly interesting and
exciting ono. Clarke nnd Monui occupied
the points for the homo team , with Hart anil
Trullloy doing like service for the visitors.
. Both teams were blanked in the llrst bout ,
1 j and Omaha drewnncthor cipher in her half
of the second. But the gentlemen from out
the land of interdicted whisky decided on n
change of programme. AVlth HrimliJecom on
lirst , which lie reached on the initial hit of
the game , and two men out , Pitcher Hart
made the longest hit ever macio on
the homo . grounds , lining the ball
clearly ever the center Held fence. This gave
the visitors two runs and that's nil tticy got.
Hart gave way to Cliire. , who pitctied two
innings.
Omaha drew blanks until tlio sixth Inning ,
vhcn the score was tied in a manner that
disgusted the audience , drove both teams
crazy , knocked ono uinnlre and n captain out
of the Held , and delayed the game formoro
than a half hour.
\Vnlsh got llrst on Mncullur's error , went
to third on Konni's hit and MeParland's
error , Kcintis going to second. Cleveland
went out ut liwt. Ilunriilinn sent a long lly
to left , which Brlmblccoin captured , and
Walsh scored. Kenrns reached tldrd and
started for homo. Patton caught him nnd
held on until ho toro Kearns1 shirt slcovoout ,
Keariis ran homo and was called snfo by
Handle , who was pissing Judgment on balls
and strikes. The entire Dos Moincs team
roared , and fora half hour everybody had a
linger in the jilo. Finally the play went on
and Acting Umpire Koach withdrew from the
game and was followed in the next inning by
Mncullar. After order had been restored
Macullav pitched the inning out , the Ilack
Sox scoring another run on Andrews' two-
sacker and Willis' single. The Prohibition
ists put Myers in the box In the seventh , and
ho ivas touvhed up for thrco hits , which ,
coupled with two errors and a few stdlcn
cases , yielded four runs for the Omahns , und
three moro wore added without nu effort hi
the eighth.

THE RAILROADS ON THE RUN ,

Session.
'
Cmcnao , August * . fSpocl.d Tclogv.un to
Tin : IJni : . ] The railroads nro already on the
run In the matter of the uniform hill .of lad
ing. They appear n.s perfectly convinced ns
ever that the form is a good one , but they
uivo abandoned any attempt to convince the
shippers of tliU belief. A tralllc official of
nneof tlio mo < t prominent east-bound lines
sam today : "Tho present situation Is an ex-
; reinely unfortunate one for the railroads. It
was brought on by the arbitrary action of
Chairman lUanchurd , mid the roads them
selves must straighten out the snarl. 1 don't
Dollovo Chairman Ulanehard meant to deceive
thorcpriseatntlve. } of the shippers , but the
shippers themselves bellovoho did.
" \ve \ can't stand the present boycott and
wo won't much longer. 1 know that a com
mittee of railroad men could meet the slilp-
[ > ers undu.ureo almost imiMcdlately on n sat
isfactory bill of lading. AVe nro agreed on
the main point that there should bo u uni
form bill of lading and with this us n basis
we c < m soon eonio to torms. You can see the
ellVet of the boycott plainly in our shipments
and the one of iv week from Monday will he
an ustonislior , Men .who have shipped with
as year alter year now turn till their
Business over to thoG rand Trunk and \Vabash-
Canadian Pncillo route. I have talked with
i number of other roads which use the new
hill of lading nnd all are agreed It must lie
changed to meet the views of the shippers. "
The national meeting of shippers' ' repre
sentatives continued its session today. It
spent the morning in going over the uniform
liillof lading nnd changed it so that its origi
nal frumers would not have recognized an
article without an introduction. The key
note of the meeting was struck when It was
unanimously resolved to organize a na
tional association of shippers with
power to tnko any action' to pro
tect the rights of .shippers nnd
primarily to boycott all roads using the new
bill of lading.
Some idea of the weight of this organiza
tion may be gained by the remark of ono of
the delegates that over 50,000 shippers , big
nnd little , would consider themselves bound
by the boycotting resolution. A nodes of
wlicre-ns'es relating that the shippers of nil
the principal cities in the United States had
been promised n conference before the bill of
lading was put into effect , ami that this
promise had been Ignored ; that the now bill
advanced rates from lit ) to fiO per cent under
the same conditions of shipment ; that
the now form. is not n hill nf
hiding , hut a suecial contract nnd that it is
not Justified in law or equity , was followed
by these resolutions :
Kesolvod. Thatonr earncsl protest against
thu unjust niul unreasonable cour > u pursued
by thu railways onibrnei'd in the central
tiaflio trunlc llnc.Mmtliorii i.-illwny iindstoaiu-
slilp association and the united lake lines bu
record i'd.
Itenolved , That wi reomnmond to all ship
pers and iccclver * that they continue to pro
test against the enforcement of this special
contract , and that nil I'linrucs which may bo
executed nncompensation fur shipping under
customary cnmlnloiH and liabilities , bo sub-
inltiedlo proper legal trijiiinnls for the pur-
HOSO of testing their justness and reasona
bleness.
A telegram was received from Chairman
Blanclmrd. In res pen so to the one sent him
last night , stating that ho would lay the re
quest for ceasing temporarily the use of the
new bill of lading before tho" joint committee
now in session in N < jw York. No other word
being received , at 5 o'clock , the meeting ad
journed subject to the call of the chairman.
The Chicago committee of the Central
Traflle association today took action which
widens the breach temporarily , bat which
will tend to close it. us several of the cast-
bound lines will refuse to bo bound by it.
U'ho action wnf > in relation to the custom of
endorsing the through ruto on receipts fronr
western lines. The committee decided this
custom should bo abolished as being con
trary to the requirements of the new bill of
lading. "Western shippers are notillcd that
under this resolution higher rates will bo
charged unless shipments are at owners' risk.
The Joint Committee Adjourns.
Niw Youif , August 7. The meeting of the
olr.t committee of the Trunk Lines assocla-
lon nnd Central Traflle association adjourned
to reconvene in Chicago , Thursday , Au
gust 14. All questions pending before
the meeting have been deferred to
that time. A telegram was sent to
the shippers' conferc-nco in Chicago , declining
to rescind the instructions putting into effect
the now bill of lading. The telegram assorts
that with the new bill as n basis a conference
committee can amend ami change it so us to
secure more effectually than in any manner a
form acceptable to all interests.

KANSAS CITV , Mo. , August 7. As a result
of Monday's conference with representatives

will amount to a 10 per cent reduction from

BOSTON , Mass. , August 7. For some time
