Lincoln gained n signal victory ever
) mtiha yesterday afternoon , and that , too , In
the presence of a largo and fashionable
crowd.
But It was a rot'cn ulT.ilr throughout , In so
far as the I/imbs were concurnad. They hit
the ball hard and often enough , but ran the
lines and lleldod Ilko n lot of amateurs nt
practice. In fact , It was the very poorest
Itamo they hnvo played this season , and there
is no accounting , save that old , old cocoanut ,
'It was an off day. "
King ( Jaff. too , was in the same canoe with
Bhannon'n men , and n number of his decis
ions were simply appalling. His calling
JJonnolly out nt second In the third inning
Wai utterly oxcuscloss , and thu prevailing
opinion wns that ho didn't sco the play nt
-nil. Of course no sinister motive is alleged ,
because If there ever was a square umpire
that wan Is John GnlTnoy. Still , his repeated
failures lu Judgment yesterday certainly had
much to do with the Lambs' poor playing.
Thn Lincoln team was brimming with to-
Imco sauce from start to flnlsh , and it was
nn exhilarating sight to see them play. Old
Jack Rowe was ns nimble ns a three-year-old
nnd was the main guy In three brilliant
doubld plays. 0
in the lastof thoso. however , King CSaff
cut quite n figure , for his calling Shannon out
lit llrst was dead wrong.
But the bright particular star of the agri
cultural outfit was young Tourney.
He had just a d07cn chances , and accepted
them all without the semblance of u Illnch.
And besides thU great work , ho hit the ball
llltn a flcnd , making n three and n two-
sackcr and scoring two runs.
Hut the truth of the matter is tlio whole
team played line ball and Brother Dave Is
congratulated upon the excellent selection ho
baimudc. There is only ono drawback to
thu aggregation and that is Raymond. Ho
nets more like a rowdy ind a loafer than ho
does n ball player and ho received a roasting
yesterday ho won't ' be apt to forgot before
the season closes. He's a fresh duck , with a
mug liken dirty dish-rug nnd would ctitn
bettor llgnruln th.1.1 slums of Louisville than
be does on a ball Held patronized by ladles
and gentlemen.
But tbo game.
Shannon sot the ball rolling In a most
promising way. tie bid Just got in in the
inorning irom Bridgeport , Conn. , and it
wnsn'troxpccted , after his long and tiresome
journey , that ho would bo in the best trim
for a hard game. But it didri'tscom to affcci
him materially , for the second ball StalTori
pitched ho shoved out for n neat single.
Ol courue'ha was applauded , for there is a
world of fun in a cracking hit nt such a time.
Donnelly went out from Hoodlum Hnymoni :
to llrst , and then Danny was nipped on art
attempt to burgle socond. Halligau got his
base on balls , but was loft , Old Cy sldo-
triictlng at lirst.
The Farmers wcro luckier. Shannon's
error allowed Monk Cline to reach llr.st , ant
on the rowdy's out ho went down to second.
Brother Jack sacrificed him to third nnd ho
scored on Burkott's single. Brother Dave
nnd Toinnoy were then speedily retired.
U was a blank for the Lambs again In the
second , but in the third they tied the score
and went , then : one better.
McCauley led off with n two-sncker. Eitel-
Jorg flow out to Burkott , but Mutineer Dan
lined her out safe for the bocond time , Allen
going to third. Shannon stole second , and
both runners seated on Stafford's wild throw
to llrst on Donnelly's grounder. Sutcllffo
ended the inning.
Then Lincoln came back , and came back
hard.
The rowdy laced out a throe-bagger.
Brother Jack expired t llrst , but tno rowdy
got lu on Burkett'b second hit. Brother Dave
fanned , but Walsh's error put Toinnoy on
llrst , nnd ho and Burkott both ritmed the
rubber on Stafford's ' magnlllcont three-cush
ion drive. . Then Onoy Patten , a model ball
player , hit her out fora single himself , nnd
Staf was in.
Four runs. They won the game.
After retiring the Lambs for aero each In
thu fourth and llfth , the Farmers added another
ether lo their string In the latter
Brother Dave opened up with nn out from
Donnelly to McCauley , but Toinnoy offset
this , with a three-baggerbut on Stafford's hit
down to Donnelly he was caught between
bases nnd run down. Staf got out of It all
there was loft , and that was third. Onoy
reached llrst on Walsh's second error , and on
Wilson's single Stafford scored. That was
all , but it was plenty.
In the following Innlmr Omaha got in ono
more. It was u lucky homer by HalUgan.
The ball wont into the weeds along the right
Hold fence and before Monk could llsh it out ,
Jooha hud circumnavigated the bases.
In the seventh the Farmers drove it in nnd
clltiohed it on the other side. Shannon's
error gave Brother Dave life , and Tomnoy
following with a two-bagger , Onoy Patton
with a tri-siitiker nndVlkon with a double ,
and you have th Whole thing in a nutshell.
That ended tbo run cetthiiifor the visitors ,
but in the eighth the Lambs trapped one
more , and their last. It wus on Donnelly's
nnd Halllgnu'H doubles , and that is all there
is worth telling about the affair.
The second clash occurs this afternoon.
The score :

Niw : YOUK , May ti3. A dispatch to the
Herald from Iquiquo says : Wrnl was re
ceived hero yesterday that the United States
warship Charleston had arrived at Cullao ,
-Peru. It was also announced that she hud
not caught sight of the transport Itatu smca
leaving Acauulco , Mexico. Naturally enough
oxrltnment at the escape of the Itata is
great. It Is now believed that she will reach
some friendly port without trouble. Her es
caping the licet Charleston is the talk all
over the city today. The lirst news of the
Charleston's ' arrival at Callao without the
Itata has spread like wildfire. But hud the
Charleston caught the Itata it is doubtful if
any of the arms or ammunition which the
latter vessel received from the schooner Kob-
ort and Minnie at San Diego would have been
found. The general impression umoiuc tb * >
best informed people here is that the Chilian
insurgent warship Ksmornlda long smco
transferred the much desired munitions of
war from the Itata and has by her subse
quent uetlons pretty well pulled the wool
overthooycsof the captain of the Charleston. !
This belief Is shared by no less an authority
than Isadora Errausrlz , who suy.s ho has lit
tle reason to doubt , that the Itata transferred
her arms to the iSsmoralda. It is said that
the plan that has been adopted is to huvo the
Ksmeralda , if she ' really has the arms and
ammunition ulioarU , dolny some little time
before attemptllljf ( o deliver thorn.
The correspondent also bad an important
interview wlththqministorof foreign affairs.
Ho says that B6Jlya | lias signed a treaty with
the congressional party , to take the place of
tbo old truce that has been in existence be
tween Bolivia fuidt Chili. This now treaty
cedes in perpetuity to Chili , represented by
the congressional 'party , the territory occu
pied ton yean rigo bv Chili us MI offset to the
debt which wa. SuUdled , on Bolivia us a lesult

iimn nnd will tomorrow lo.ivofor the reserva
tion , proud of the tlUtlnctl n of having de
liberately murdered ono of the bravest of
ficers In the ITultcil States army , Lieutenant
Kdward Caioy.
The last day of the trial has boon fraught
with exciting ovonw. The defense llrst
aroused the Indignation of the court by giv
ing the reason why Living Bear , father of
Plenty Horses , had not been brought to the
court , although n bench warrant was Issued
for hts arrest. It seems the deputy entrusted -
trusted with Iho warrant slipped a
coir in hts moral conduct wncn ho reached
Sioux Cay nnd lost two days in his reckon
ing of tlmo. The court announced that the
matter would bo thoroughly sifted. Follow
ing till * came the attempted suicide of Wlilto
Moon , a Cheyenne wltno-n for the prosecu
tion. White Moon was with Casey when
Plenty Horses fired the fatal shot , and the
defense Introduced testimony quoUloning
the reliability ofVhlto Moon's testimony.
Somcono explained to the Cheyenne the con
sequence of perjury and ho brooded over the
matter until ho took n JacU-knlfo und stabbed
himself In Iho base'of the neck on the loft
side. When found the blade , about three
inohos long , was still sticking In the wound.
Physicians were called and ho Is now on n
fair way to recovcrv.
Judge Shims delivered the charge to the
Juror * instructing them to bring in a verdict
of not guilty. Ho explained that Judge
Edgerton disagreed with him on tbo prop
osition of instructing fornn acquittal , but
the instructions to bo given , however , wcro
to bo considered these of the court. The
charge was quite lengthy. Ho declared that
In bis opinion actual war existed at the tlmo
of Casey's death "Tho Judge concluded his
charge with saying :
"While the government nnd this court
doe ? not regard the Indians as a separate
nation with power to declare war , neverthe
less the actual facts iw they existed consti
tuted a state of war. The court was strongly
of the opinion that Casey was killed while in
tlio discharge of his duties ni an ofllcor of the
United States army. The court does not be-
llcvo that had there been n conllict between
the Indians and Casey and his scouts while
tlio latter was reconuoltering the No Water
camp , and in that conflict Casey shot Plenty
Horses , that the olllcer would have been ar
raigned In tin * court on the charge of mur
der. The killing of Casey was a cruel net ,
but it was an act of war. It is the duty of
tlio court , therefore , to order a verdict of'not
guilty. "
No inkling of the speedy termination of
the case had been given , and nt 1 ! o'clock ,
when court convened , the testimony being
"completed , the attorney * were preparing to
commence their argu'ments when Judge
Shlras said : "Thero is no need of going
further with this case. What I shall any is
the opinion of tnls court , but not of my col
league ; it is said on my own responsibility. "
The Judge then said in substauca that the
guilt or innocence of the accused turned
upon tha question as to whether or not a
state of actual war existed at the time of
Casey's death. In tne opinion of the court it
has been shown beyond a doubt that such a
state or war did exist.
Immediately upon adjournment Plenty
Horses was surrounded by ladies and other
spectators , who shook hands with him for
somu time , after which Attorney Powers
with beaming face led his still silent and un
demonstrative client to his hotel , wliero
Plenty Horses spent some hours' time in
writing autographs for bystanders.
The testimony given by Captain Baldwin ,
aide of General Miles , was an important
fonturo In , establishment of the fact of war.
Ho came with nil the omciul papers of the
war depattmont bearing upon the circum
stances previous to ami at thotimn of Casey's
doathf-and althotieh the documents hud only
boon offered by the dofon- and the admis
sion not yet decided upon bj- the court , the
captain's own testimony was of tho. same
character.
A Statement , from Chicago.
CIIICAOO , May 23. Inquiry at the military
.headquarters In this city concealing the
trial of Plenty Horses for the killing of
Lieutenant Casey elicited the folio wing state
ment : The facts in the case are that if over
there was n condition of hostilities prevail
ing it existed during the latter part of December -
comber and January.Vhilo information
was sent to the hostile * that the only safe
road was to return to the agency and sur
render , orders were given to the troops to
press thorn on all sides and force them back
to the agency. Lieutenant Casey was in no
sense a spy , although In civilized warfare
his capture mlijht perhaps have boon Justi-
Jlablo. Ho wa. not in the enemy's camp erin
in any way disculsed. He were the
uniform of a United States army
ofllccr in the execution of his duties
as such. Ho was reconuolteriug the
country , grounds and position of the enemy's
camp nnd was killed by one of the hostile In
dians. In n war between clvili/ed nations
the manner of his killing would probably bo
considered by what is known as a military
commission. The hostile Indian who killed
him wu arrested 0,1 an order issued by Gen
eral Miles long before any civil indictment
> vas found against him or bo tore It was safe
for any sheriff or United Sta os marshal tope
po through that country with a posse of civil
officers. Ho was sent to Fort Mead and
placed In the guard housn by a militnrv escort
cert in order that ho might be subject to a
rlvil tribunal for them to determine the
important question of Justitication or
non-justification of his taking the
life of Liohtenuut Casey. Ho was not with
held for a time by General Miles' order , but
by order of the war department. The /Irst /
qnostlon fortho court to decide was whether
the Indlnus. in n starving condition and under
treaties violated , can make war ugninst the
United States. Secondly , wtion In n condi
tion of hostility as to their amenability from
trial for taking the llfo of an olllcer in the
discharge of his duty , The prosecution in
too trial of Plenty Horses asked for Informa
tion from the military as to the status of affairs
existing at that tlmo , nnd received all the in
formation that the military could give them.
The defense also asked for Informa
tion and received it In the same way ,
'
and the whole matter has been Jo'ft
for the Judge and twolvu Intelligent Jurymen
to execute the law nnd afford Justice to all
concerned. The military has nothing what
ever tu do or say , nor any desire to express
an opinion. A warm friendship existed be
tween General Miles and the murdered
oflleor , and General Miles ouco offered him a
posltioh on his staff , which was reluctantly
docllnnd for reasons that were understood
and approve } ! by the former ,

The frantic efforts of Distributing Agents.
H. Elrod of the Sissoton Indian reservation to
provide for n satisfactory $1,000,000 bond , required -
quired by the government for the distribu
tion of some $ * 00,000 cash to the redskins ,
has created interest In the method of how
this business is done. It is related that after
his appointment Sum Klrod approached the
business men of Watertown ami suggested to
them that a ? l,000,0 > )0 ) bond was required and
that ho thought tlusy ought not object to
going on. Strange to note , tho. business men
of Watertown hesitated a little.
"Well , " says Elrod , "you needn't put
yourselves out lu the least. The
srood people of Mil bank down hero
express themselves as onlv too wiliine to llx
the matter They sav they would like to
have those ' , ' ,000 Indians visit their town , and
especially with all this money that will be
distributed to them. "
The Watertown hustlers took a tumble to
themselves , as they say , and a nice fat
$1,000,01)0 ) bond was soon llxuJ up nnd dls-
patched to Washington. It was supposed
that it was all settled and Watertown was al
ready smacking Its lips in anticipation of Its
share of tbo fSOO.OOO dog fonst. But there
next came rumors that the aforesaid $ SOOUOO ,
dog feast was not to bo hold at U'atertown ,
but to bo distributed Impartially over the
whole reservation.
'I Ins was different. The \Vatortown
signers of the bond began to nslc themselves ,
whntnrowo there for ) The result was the
very pusillanimous net of urging the de
partment to bo released from the bond. In
some way the report got out that Governor
Mcllettu was ono of these asking a releaso.
In the lirst place it was impossible that
these men could thus withdraw , having
officially qtmlilled , and further than tills
Governor Mellette was not on Klrod's bond ,
being out ot the state at the time. But
Ai'ont Elrod was no moru disturbed by the
action of these bondsmen than ho had boon
on the sttrt , and quietly informed them that
their places would bo llllod Going to Sioux
Fulls ho ro.idlly found men to take their
places , and ns changed the bond has been
accepted by the department at Washington.
As a , result the $ t > 00,000 will bo deposited

there will bo a deposit nf at least $ . - > U)00 ( ) on

money market at Sioux Falls. Checks will

dium of exchange.

to Tun Bii' : . | fn a case in court a few days
ago Schmniibs As Miiluna , proprietors of a
saloon in the Hotel Jiilien , pleaded tlio state
prohibition law to avoid the payment of their
barkeeper. The plea was admitted on the
ground that the business was illegal , and the
barkeeper had no recourse at law.
Today Judge Noy created n sensation by
saying to the county attorney : ' "Schmuuss & .
Miilana have pleaded the llq'tior law in a suit ,
brought against thorn in this court. I want
you to let them have the full benellt of it.
You are ordered to enter injunction proceed
ings against them and their saloon.1"
Public sentiment is against the linn for Its
action , and it will probably bo expelled from
the Pcr-mnnl Liberty league , cjmpoaod of
liquor dealers , nnd leave town.
