ONLY FIVE OF THE MEN REMAIN LOYAL.
Shannon am ! Ills 1'ollown UoftiHO All
Flattering OfTerH and tlio New
Management GIvcH Up
in
All hope of continuing a professional base
ball club In Omaha this year wus abandoned
yesterday morning.
This was by action of the citizens' commit
tee on tlio receipt of positive Information that
"Grinin and Eltclorg ] refused to remain. With
Shannon , McCauley , Twltcholl and Donnelly ,
these two men also accepted advance money
from the Washington American association
club , nnd only remained over hero to square
themselves. If possible , with the Western as
Boclatlon. ThU. however , was impossible )
nnd along with tlio other deserters tiioy wll
bo blacklisted.
The only men who Imvo remained true
to their' obligations to this asso
ciation are Baker , Walsh , Clarke
and Trallloy. What Halllgan's In
trillions are nobody up to data has been able
n > find out , but the probabilities are that he
is to follow Shannon. Ho i too promising n
ball player to bo neglected by Shannon In
bis coup de main in behalf of the A'morican
nssociatlon and the two or three virulent
local enemies to the game.
Shannon's actions wore most culpable , but
the future will develop whence the induce-
tnout for such a bn o bntrayftl of the city
which had made him n potted and p.imporod
favorite , and the baseball patrons will bn ap
prised of all the particulars as soon as they
lire collected. The fact Is palpable that ho
made big money bv disintegration and tils-
tructtou of the Omaha baseball club , as ho
was offered f 1,000 in cold cash. In addition to
the handsome salary ho was drawing , to got
his men In line , and starter
Denver last night. His money was to hnvo
been placed In his hands tbo moment he
boarded the train with his men.
Eiteljorg and Hnlllgan , too , were both as
sured of material increase of salary , but nil
to no purpose. The money back of the
scheme to wrecK Omaha's chances of contin
uing her club , outweighed the rldfcu'ously '
larger otter made to Shannon.
It Is universally admitted that Eitcljorg
and Halllgan wore both underpaid , in com
parison with ttio money belnir paid Inferior
men on the team , and in equity the citizens'
committee unhesitatingly resolved to do the
rignt thing by them , and wholly counterbal
ance tbo injustice done thorn bv the old
management. Still all this affords
no oxtcnuation for their actions in the case ,
but Is mentioned merely to show that the
gentlemen who had voluctcorcd to uphold
Omaha's interests-were disposed to do tbo
riBbf thing from the very outset.
There was no question about the most
ample financial bucking , as the whole busi
ness clement of the city was ready to como
forward to save the club under any or all
'
circumstances. The desertion of 'all the
players but three or four mudo this a forlorn
hopo. and it was looked upon us an unwise
move to continue with a club made up of dis
carded players from other clubs , and bettor
to wait and build a solid structure for next
season.
The baseball patrons must rest content with
the situation , as deplorable as It Is , and put
their faith in what is to como. The present
wreck bus but developed the popular hold the
great American giuno has upon the people ,
nnd there is every assurance that the pros'ent
fall and winter will encompass the solidcst
basobull organisation the city has known , and
next spring there will bo a fresh start and
under such auspices us will assure a gtatid
success , with no blatant blackguard to ivll-
llfy and slander the people nnd no mercenary
bead and front to freeze everybody out in an
attempt to hog every thing in sight.
Another thing , the climax has not yet been
reached by u long shot , and there 13 to bo an
nftorclap that will meet with the uproarous
approbation of every true lover and supporter
of the game. Nero fiddled while Rome
was burning , as all wo old Romans
know , nnd wo also know the mon
strous old emperor fled ntterwards
to the shanty of ono of his ox-slaves in the
country aud cut his own throat to rid himself
of the haunting evils of his sins.
There is n long story yet to bo told , as soon
ns tno proper parties got it In shape , con
nected with the wrecking of the Omaha base
ball club , which will bo Interesting from
chapter ono down to lastSunday night , when
the team wns plied with liquors and piloted
the rounds of the city brothels , in fur
therance of the vile scheme to consummate
the ends of the enemies of enterprise
progress and prosperity.

LINCOLN , Nob. , July 15. [ Special Tele
gram to TUB BEB.I The Farmers showed
their ability to win today when they made
up their minds to do so. The Cowboys put
up one of the best games they are capable of ,
but were outgeneraled by th'o agriculturists.
Khrot was In the box for Lincoln , and with
the exception of n ridiculous toss to first ,
about ten foot too high , when he had n dead
sure thing , ho played a faultless gamo.
Swartzcl of the Kansas Citys was not very
far behind him in pitching. The two Wil
sons , respectively catchers for the Farmers
and Cowboys , divided the honors about
equally.
But the hero of the occasion was Farmer
Heat who stopped every ball within n radius
of n hundred feet nnd dispatched them in
variably to Unit with a celerity that was
fatal to the cow punchers. Shortstop Raymond
mend did almost equally ns well.
Up to thu fifth inning no runs were made
by either nine. In the fifth Farmer Raymond
mend made a base bit. Ho then stole second
and was advanced to third by Burkott being
given his base on balls. float's '
sacrifice hit brought him In
among deafening plaudits. In the
Mxth Wilson made a base hit , got to third on
a wild throw of his namesake , and made the
second and last score on Monk ditto's sacri
fice hit. Manager Rowe Is of the opinion ,
therefore , that his original theory of sacrifice
bits Is all right. Scorn :

PI.ATTSMOUTII , Nob. , July 15. [ Special
Telegram to TUB BEE. ] The PJrio Ridge
club of noble red men wrestled this aftet
noon with the Burllngtons through seven In
nings of baseball. The novelty of the occa
sion attracted an immense crowd of onlook
ers who packed themselves Into the grand
stand like sardines In a box , and lined the
fences as thick as files. Peculiar Interest at
tached to the contest In the fact that within
the confines ot Plattsmouth lies the historic
battle field on which the flower of the Sioux
and Pawnee nations bit the dust in a most ,
sanguinary engagement. Mingling with
the ghosts of the past were the real
live descendants of the relentless warriors of
the plains , battling almost upon the exact
spot of their ancestors' ensanguined field
with tholr white foes In a contest of civilized
pastime. It may have been that the blood of
tnelr proud and untamed ancestors cried
aloud from out the ground , for many an easy
liner was badly fumbled , and several files
were missed. As ball players they are above
the average , but could not compote with the
now reorganized and invincible Burlinf tons ,
who put up an errorless and faultless gamo.
Sam Puttorson's delivery was too
speedy nnd deceptive , only four base hits
being made by the reds , while the Burling-
tons pounded the sphere all over the Held.

Episodes in which the "dead gomes'1 are
Interested sometimes get Into print , am
sometimes they don't. It may bo as well testate
state on passant that the following belongs to
the former category : ,
'Only ' two days ago there resided in this
city on Individual of speculative propensities
known to the members of the " 'protean " as
Brick Prlco. He don't reside hero now.
His mail might roach him at Seattle , but this
Is not guaranteed to bo a straight tip.
The fuets connected with Mr. Price's dis
appearance nro not numerous , but as ho con
sidered them unfllclent It would bo out of
place for n disinterested party to kick. Brick
and another speculator who is best known by
the euphonious and suggestive sobriquet of
Stuihorso UI11 , have for homo time past boon
engaged in running a snide joint not moro
than 1,500 miles from the pollco station. The
business of doing up suckers with neatness
and dispatch wns successfully carried on.
Bill acting as principal while Brick stnrroil
satisfactorily as an accessory. They might
bo there yet but for a certain weakness that
Bill entertained for the fair sox.
TuosJay afternoon a friend entered the
place and stated that two susceptible females
wore in the city. Bill waited to hoar no
more , but at once donned bis coat , turned
over the bank roll of about S2 * > 0 to Brick to
avoid being touched If ho happened to got
elated , and was gone.
Now It so happened that Brick was of the
opinion that Bill had "dono him dirt" In
days gone by and at once realized that hero
was the opportunity to got even. Ho waited
only until Bill was fairly on the street when
ho pocketed the money , made tracks for
South Omaha nnd bought n ticket for Seattle.
No , Bill didn't squeal , ana what's more , ho
won't. Think a man who fishes for suckers
right along will holler when ho gets caught
himself ! Don't you believe it. William
hasn't a word to say , and it was only by the
merest accident that the story got'out. .
Some of the boys got onto It , and unfortun
ately everybody Is not born dumb.
SUGAR 1NSIM3CTOKS.
Mniiy Clamoring for n , Dilllunlt Gov
ernment Position.
Mr. John Peters , collector of revenue for
the Omaha district , is receiving a great many
letters from parties who would like to bo ap
pointed sugar inspector for the state of Ne
braska. Under the bounty law It will bo
necessary to huvo at least two sugar Inspec
tors for the great Oxnard sugar factories nt
Grand Island and Norfolk. The bounty to
bo paid upon sugar manufactured in the
United states is I' * , cents pur pound for all
sugar that stands n tests of tU degrees nnd S
cents per pound for all that goes over OS de
grees.
Mr. Oxnard says that th'cir A 1 sugar last
year wont il'J.8 ' degrees and ho thinks a largo
portion of their output this year will draw
the 2 cent a pound bounty. The 'company
has already forwarded to Washington , as re
quired by law , the preliminary statement
with regard to the probable output , the kind
of supnr manufactured and the process and
resources of the plant. In this statement'the
Oxnurd company states that the probable
output this year will bo about five or six mil
lion pounds.
Mr. Oxnnrd Is anxious that the men ap
pointed to Inspect the sugar shall be thor
oughly competent. It rcqulres a thorough
knowledge of chemistry nnd the use of the
polarlscopo and other delicate apparatus to
be ableto _ inspect sugar. The chances are
that not ono man In lifty among those who
have applied.to the government for the posi
tion of .sugar inspector knows any moro
about how to make a scientific chemical test
of the sweet granules that will bo produced
at Grand Island and Norfolk than an East
Omaha bull-frog" knows about the music of

' HKO and rosutteil In u victory for thn former
ana too capture of Hunseo , there seems little
reason to doubt thut this Incident WHS merely
a spasmodic movement , meant moro us a
demonstration of the fact thut the revolution
is still nllvo. This fact the very Insignia ,
entice of the plauo operated ' against
tends to doinonstnitn. U Is very
probable Unit the present condition
of affairs will coiitlnuo until the entry Into
onicu of Senor Don Cluudlo Vienna , tno
prusldcut-oloot. Thou negotiations of satis
factory nrraupoments will not only bo possi-
bio , but very probable. Meanwhile Interest
mutt bo kept up , hence the late descent on
Huasco. According to newspaper reports
this move was pending since the mldillo of
May , when the transport Malpoa loft Irjulijuu
to aid In receiving and distributing arms ,
She appears to have now turned up with
munitions for an artny of : > 5UOO , men , and the
blow has been struck. Otherwise the Hiatus
quo remains unchanged.
All ahipmciits from Chill pronor to the
Tnrapacnn province having boon prohibited ,
the revolutionists nro drawing tholr food sup
plies from San Francisco nnd through
Panama and while greatly Inconvenienced
can scarcely bo starved out. Hulmncodn's
two torpedo boats and the now famous trans
port Imporliili keep moving about the Tara-
piica coast , but are not strong euoueh to en
force the blockaao of the port. They hnvo
to keep well out of the r.ingo of the ulg con-
grossionnl ship * . The foreign olomunt In
Chill seems to bo greatly favoring the con-
grcsslonal cause.
The sympathy , both direct nnd Indirect ,
of the HrilUn element with the congres
sional party is not serious.
The Uulmnceda coiieross has passed an net
providing that hereafter all import duos or
storage charges must bo paid in gold or sil

crco has had the oltoctof enhancing the
prices of all Imported goods , and It Is stated
that the increase has boon generally between
Il3."i and 150 per cent. The sumo power has
awarded $150,01)0 ) prize money to the com-
munaors of the Ailniir.il Lvneli and the Ad
