LOST THROUGH COL , STRIEF ,
Yesterday's Game Went to Milwaukee by
Virtue of the Umpire's Blunders.
WORST EVER SEEN ON THE GROUNDS ,
Oinnlm'fl Plnyors Contributed Some
Awful Poor Work to the Ilo-
Biilt Other HiiHoliall Gumcs
und Matters.
OLONEL , GEO.
STIHEIJ1 took yes-
terdny's game In
Ids two hands
'
wrapped It up carefully -
fully In manllla
paper , tied It with
yellow ribbon , nnd
presented It to Mil
waukee.
And that Is the
only way Milwau
kee could over hnvo gotten It.
It Is not out of chagrin over n sore defeat
that this charge Is made , but simply because -
cause It Is n fact. On an average Mr.
Htrlof's umpiring here has been first class ,
but by his egregious blunders yesterday ho
offset all his previous commendable work.
They were utterly nnd incontinently vilo.nnd
wholly without reason or oxciuo. A blind
man could have soon bettor than he , and a
auokllng babe use bettor Judgment. In
Just such cases ai yesterday
it scorns that n club should
have some redress , but It has none , nnd can
only kicK , iirin and boar It. No intentional
wrongdoing Is charged n-cninst Mr. Strlof
hero-ho Is too square n man for any willful
fraud , but again It Is rcoaato 1 his work was
the most nbom'nablo soon on the homo
grounds this season.
Ho gave Milwaukee her llrst two runs
beyond any sort of doubt or question , nud
there is not a single mcmoor in the visiting
team who will contradict the assertion.
Of course the game was intensely exciting ,
as all cloio contests are bound to bo , und had
the Lambs had anything llko Justice meted
out to them , It would hnvo been n most en
joyable and satisfactory ono.
'
'And llko the umpiring of Colonel Strlof ,
the playing ot the homo team was decidedly
bum , yet ns analogous as it may seem , they
would hnvo won the game hands down. In
the first place , by reason of sundry causes ,
ns has boon the invariable rule here in times
of Important iramos , they took the Hold In n
weakened condition.
Jimti.y Donnelly was off way off , I might
consistently add nnd Halligan essayed to
fill his position nt third , while Trallloy was
sent to right. The Professor , it Is alleged ,
had another attack of malaria and was unfit
for work In the Held.
Right here 1 want to tender the manage
ment with a proscription for Mr. Donnelly's
nllmont , nnd I'll warrant a speedy and rndi-
ical cure.
Sonk him with about a $50 fine.
I've seen Ilia remedy applied many and
many a time before and hnvo never known it
lo fu'il In producing the best of results.
Now for the details of the catastrophe.
Shannon led off with u gonllo push to
Schoch and perished at llrst. Then Hulll-
ean nnd Sutcliffe hit safe , the Deacon got
bis base by the Big Four Houto , and Papa
Allen planted another safe one , and the two
tirst came ambling home. The Deacon a mo-
uiont later followed In tholr wako , as Scboch ,
Petit and Campion run Papa down between
tirst nnd second.
The Commodore struck out Just like a man
In n dream.
But the crowd cheered nnd clapped tholr
hands , for there was thrco runs in , and they
Lhould have won the gamo.
The Brewers retired in order , Burke being
thrown out at llrst by Eiteljorg. Petit on a
straight ono to Papa , and Schoch the same
as Burko.
That was clever , Papa getting all three of
the outs.
The second and third wore- both barren of
results for each , nnd so was the fourth and
the fifth nnd the sixth and thu seventh nnd
the eighth , und yes , the ninth too , so far as
Omaha was concerned , so there's nothing
loft to do but to tell how Colonel Strict and
the Mllwaukccs made tholr runs.
In the fourth , after Burke had agitated tno
atmosphere in n wild and unavailing manner ,
Colonel Strict pronounced Potit's most palpable -
pablo foul down along the third base line ,
fair.
fair.Then
Then there was n scoro.
With inflamed face Manager Dan walked
up to him ami shook his shaggy locks nt him ,
nnd probably called him mimes , but It did no
good. The crowd-ovldontlv knew that Man
ager Dan was right , for they cheered him
nnd hissed Colonel Strlof.
Then Scboch hlta cloud scraper wny out
Into the Commodore's domain , and as
the Commodore couldn't jump over moro
than two horses nt a time , it lanaod
safe , Petit going to third , und Uoorglc
to second on the throw In to keep Bob from
scoring.
Then Abner Dalrymplo came up nnd n cold
chill ran up nnd down the grandstand's
spinal column as ho made ready to hit her
out of the yard. Everyone know that if Old
Dad over lauded , it was all day. But ho
didn't and then again ho did , for both
runners came In on his stroke , which was n
savage grounder down to Shannon. He wns
tin-own out ut lirst nnd so was Shoch at the
plate , but Colonel Strlof said no , so what
could you do about It. Earlo got his base on
balls , but Campion's strike out ended the
inning.
Iu the sixth the score wns tied.
Little Burke propelled ono out into loft
l.tbled for bag No. 2. Petlt's sacrifice
hunched him up another block , nnd on
Uoorglu's second two-snckor ho scored.
The battle wns growing grim.
Dnlrymplo got between the ball nnd the
catcher before It began to curve , end he
trotted to llrst with n couple of loosened
ribs , only to bo doubled up , however , , with
the elongated Earl on the tatter's drive to
Walsh , who put the ball to Shannon and ho
to McCauloy.
In thu seventh Campion pot n base on balls
mid went to third when Jocko llrod Grlni's
little fungo Into the right Held blenchery.
Then Broihor Urlm put up n foul where old
Sut could get It , nnd ono man was out. But
the lulu play of the game wns yet to come.
Schoch shoved Crlm ! olT llrst nnd Dal
started Campion toward homo. It was all
over In a moment ,
Sut llrod the ball to Walsh , who chased
Mr. Urlm back into Papa's reach , nnd nflor
Papa had pounded him on thn back for n
while hu slammed her over to third and JOCKO
touched sllclt Mr. Campion several Inches
from thu plate.
U was Intended for a double steal. It resulted -
sulted In n double murder.
That wns when nervous people out near
Florence thought there was another cloud
burst on the wny. U wns only the npplnuso
that creeled the most remarkable piece of
work over seen on the Omaha ground ,
Then the umotudo of the tomb reigned
until the ninth , when the game wns dumped
on nrouplu of putrid errors.
After Hurl bad bcon thrown out by Halli-
gnn , TvvitchoH made u charming muff of
Campion's lly , Camp going round to third on
Grlui's single , and Schrlver being hit with
tlio ball the bags were all occupied , anil the
prospect wn n rocky one Indeed.
Still the gnnio might have boon saved oven
yet , but when Oavloa hit n grounder down to
\ \ iilsh and Walsh scooped It up beautifully
una llrod U Into "Old Cy" In umplo time to
have crushed Campion nt the pinto , but "Old
Cy" lot It got through htm nnd the game
was lost.
Wnlsh's throw might have been n trltlo
wide , yet SiitclltTo's muff was of the oxcuso-
Io3 kind , nud so thu Lambs wont down.
But as the Dutchman said : "Id vas bed.
dhor you don'd gry for sooin shplll mllllck. "

led to so much opposition to the Uoston reo

long letter to tlio Herald explaining tlmt- the
reasons for her attack were based upon the
following incident : "On May fl , In n conver
sation with Dr. n rooks , I vary fully described
to him what I considered n most signillcnul
mnss mooting hold the Sunday previous til
Chlckorlng hull , Now York. Said mooting
wns called by tno IJonodletlno rovlvnllsl
evangelist monit known ns Knthor Ignatius
to protest against insincerity witliln the
church and In the pulpit , bnlng spoclnlly di
rected ngnlnst Hov. Hulior Newton's inconsistent -
sistont position. The mooting was not to
protest ngaliist freedom of opinion , nor to
curtail its legitimate expression outside a
church which demands consocr\tod ; vows of
loyalty to distinct dogmatic tenets. Friar
Ignatius unhesitatingly admitted this , stat
ing that tlio very platform on which he stood
would that evening bo occupied by a man
who would attack the truths that ho ( tlio
monk ) cherished most doarlv , yet ho rotild
shake hands with Hugh Pentecost as an hon
est man bocausn of ills not remaining In
nn EvntiBollenl church to undermine distinct
articles of faith ho had sworn to preach and
defend. Not such , however , ho argued , was
Hobor Newton's position. Fattier Ignatius
then road extracts from the bible relating to
the miraculous conception and bodlty incar
nation of.Ic.Mi3 , the letter of which thochurch
accepts , stilting thai the two fundamental
doctrines of both the Catholic and Protestant
churches wore those , their dellntto and literal
Interpretation of the Immaculate conception
and resurrection of the identical body , und ,
therefore , no one lias u right to remain in a
church declaring sucli a definite statement of
faith who did not accept and teach it , and
surely not ono who deliberately denied it and
widely proachoil the opposite. All this was
narrated fully to Dr. Brooks , whereupon ho
replied with much warmth of feeling : 'Father
Ignatius is a course , vulgar , impertinent fol
low. Hober Newton is not dishonest. It is
n moro dilToronco of interpretation. ' Amazed
nt Dr. Urooks' position , both ethically and
logically , I enlarged thus : 'But Mr. Urooks ,
Hobor Newton believes that Joseph was the
human father of Jesus , just the same ns you
ami I had human fathers , and that the bo'ly
of Jesus was stolen from the grave and that
his resurrection was of the astral or spiritual
body , which was seen by those spiritually
able to discern. Certainly Mr. Newton is
dishonest. By tins I mean dishonest dofneto
or intellectually , not necessarily in motive.
Can ho remain In the church when ho holds
such vlowsl" Mr. Brooks again replied with
much feeling. 'Honor Newton is not dis
honest. Ho has a right to his own interpre
tation. ' The subject was then discussed , but
It made a deep impression on mo. In scores
of conversations with this great , broad man ,
it was the tirst time I over hoard htm
speak against a human b.'ing , and
it was painful to rolled that such abusive
language should bo provoked by so con
sistent and justifiable n position as that
taken by Father Ignatius in this instance
and that such Justilieation of Mr. Nowton's
untenable position should bo uiiida by ono so
exceptionally * straightforward and single-
handed as all who know Mr. Brooks will i'oel
him to bo.Vhllo the innocent , immediate
cause of an ecclesiastical disruption , I wish
to put myself on record emphatically as
boinir hcartilv and fully in sympathy theologically -
logically with Dr. Brooks rather than wltn
Dr. DcCostn , while on thn other hand heart
ily and fully In symj.athy with Lr. ) DoCosta

CIIIOAOO , Juno 27. A mooting of the tron-
oral passenger agents of the waUorn read *
was hold today lit Chairman Finloy's oftlco to
consider the nction of the Alton In roitueluir
the rates between Chicago nud Kansas I'lty
and between Chicago nud St. Louis. The
discussion was brief , there being but ono
thing for the chairm.iu to do. He authorized
all thu Interested Hues to meet the Alton's
rate locally uetwoon the points , tanlug effect
next Tuesday , nnd nlso to use a $10 rate bet
ween Chicago and Omaha for basing purpose !
on through business to nnd from points west
of the Missouri river. On trnfllo the present
rates to Omaha and Sioux City will bo main
tained , It is understood that this notion is
ontirolv satisfactory to the Alton , and that
no further reductions will bo nmdd bv that
road without good causo. There Is a feeling
among railroad men that the pasiongur rate
between Chicago and Kansas city will never
again bo advanced nbovo the $10 mark The
Alchlson rend has bcon In favor of
sucli n rate for n long time , but tlio Burling
ton and Uock Island , which have n valtmblo
local business to prutoot , have always oi > . -
posed it. Now that the rate has been
forced Into effect n.s a result of the dllVoroncu
between Chairman Fiuloy and the Alton it
is doubtful if it can over bo put baclt to the
? ! 2.r > 0 basis.
There is dancer of n further reduction In
the rate froin St , Louis to Chicago. The
Alton reserved the right to reduce its rate to
* . " > , but now the Jacksonvllle-SoutVieustorn
Is clamoring for It nnd needs the consent of
Its Chicago connection , tlio Atchlson rand ,
to put i into effect. The Atchlson has not
decided whether to Join Its ally In reducing
the rate or not.

The committee on coal of iho Western
Freight association , iu a report to Chairman
MIdgloy , recommends that such lines in the
association as desire to do so mav Join the
Baltimore & Ohio In n through rate of gas
coal nl ! .ftO per not ton from Plttsburg to
the Mississippi river on businois destined to
points beyond , allowing the Baltimore &
Ohio n minimum of J2 per ton cast of Chi
cago. The Iowa Contra ! was the only mem-
bar of the committee that refused to vote the
I'djustmout , its position being that It could
not consent to it unless satisfactory arrange
ments were made with the eastern Hues vln -
Ponrla on this basis. As It was on account
of the Poorin situation that the adjustment
by way of Chicago was proposed , the atti
tude of the Iowa Central is regarded ns un
reasonable. Mr. Midgloy decided that the
Hues west of Chicago should receive 2 S per
cent , or 70 cents nor net ton on shipments of
gas coal , as that is the basis of the existing
arrangement with the eastern lines. As thu
matter is to bo appealed to the commission
ers of the Western Traftlc association , Mr.
Midgloy advised tlio western roads to ac
cept no loss in tlio meantime than their rogu-
Ittrperconlngoofthogros.srato from Pittsburg
to cast St. Louis. In the matter of hard coaL
shipments from the eastern mines to wester' *
points , the chairman authorizes thu low.

less than the tariff from Chicago to points
