It's settled now. Omaha will have a team ,
nnd will open the series nt Milwaukee next
Saturday. This was finally settled this even
ing nnd the Western association magnates
returned to their homes satisfied with the
result of their labors In Omaha. Thoy. or ,
rather , six of them , put up six certified
chocks forpX ( ) each nnd Omaha citizens put
up a Ilko sum. Tills Is n gunrantco that the
team will bo maintained in Omaha during
the remainder of the season. Grand Rapids
wanted iho franchise , but the association
preferred to neop the circuit as it was at the
outact of the season.
What will HIP team bo ! N'ost co pas !
President John Spcas of the Kansas City
team scorned to know ns rcuch if not moro
than any of the outfit. Ho said Just before
embarking for homo nt 9 o'clock last night
that Omaha would have a team In the Held
but little Inferior to that which lutolv dis-
banded. The exact personnel cannot 'bo
plvon until It Is certain what the
late members of the team propose doing.
Only ono thing is certain. Shannon can't '
como back if ho wants to. People won't
have him. Clarke and Twitchell have telegraphed -
graphed asking when they will bo wanted.
Eltcljorg and Griflln did not play with Wash
ington yesterday , nor did Siitcliffe , nnd It is
hoped they will return. Halllgan is playing
with the Cincinnati National league team ,
mid will bo returned , ns will Walsh from
Minneapolis. Lincoln will furnish Flnunu-
gnn for llrst base. Milwaukee will furnish
Dungun to calch. Mr. Spous said Omaha
could have either Frank Pours or Darn-
brough. Sioux City will contribute Buckon-
bcrgcr to manage the team for the tlmo
being , and during the week the ether needs
of the team will bo dotermlno.1 on nnd sup
plied by Western or National clubs. His
not Improbable that Burns of Chicago will
captain the team nnd play third base for the
balance of the season.
Mr. Spcus generously waived his claim to
the iran-.cs scheduled at Ivnnsiis City this
week , saving that the best team that , could
bo put Into the llchl would bo but a patched
up nffnir and would make a poor
showing , and ho preferred that
the games should go ns postponed.
Lincoln nnd Denver agreed to lot the for-
* felted games of lust week go ns postponedi
nnd Omaha will open at Milwaukee on Satur
day ns scheduled xvith forty-tlirco games
won and twont.v-threo'games lost.
Uticlo Dick McCormick donated the use of
the old association grounds for the remainder
of the season , nnd Omaha people will try to
mnko the venture of the association n paying
ono for this year. Next year the club will bo
completely reorganized under local manage
ment , Truflloy nnd Bauer of course remain
with the team. President ICrautholT will bo
hero during the week to attend to the ro-
malnlng work of putting the team in the
Held.
"Wo have been devoting our whole tlmo to '
the matter and working hard , " said Hyllnch ,
president of the iMlnncapolii.cluu , last even
ing , "ami wo nro going to keep a team in
Omaha. The fact Is wo can't afford to lose
her. The location is central , nnd by natural
right Omaha ought to bo in the association.
Grand Rapids is anxious to como in ; in fact ,
wo received throe telegrams from there
today , but they are too far awny in the first
place , nnd then wo would have to make anew
now schedule , which is something wo have
been trying to avoid. VVo made up our
minds nt Kansas City that we must keep
Omaha in If possible , .and wo decided that it
would bo better to come hero and sco what
could bo done with the business men right
hero on the ground. The result has boon
perfectly .satisfactory. Wo found the feeling
among the business men of the city unani
mously in favor of keeping the club In the
city , nnd they have subscribed liberally as
soon as requested to do so , and that , too ,
without the necessity of extended argument.
Wo have raised a fund of about $ ' 3,000 to put
the club on its feet again , and back of that Is
a guaranty fund of (2,500 , which consists of
live JTiOO eertilleti checks subscribe/I by five
of the clubs of the association. This is a re
serve fund to bo placed lu tbo bands of Pres
ident Krauthoff and drawn upon ns may bo
needed for the support of the Omaha club. I
bcliuvo that Omaha can support n club just
ns well as Kansas City , notwithstanding the
reports that have gene out all over the coun
try to the contrary.
' 'It ' looks ns though baseball had not boon
managed right bore , and if this bo true , nnd
there has been a lank of confidence or n Inclc
of popularity In the management there will
now bo an opportunity to sou how a change
will work , There will be n chance for n
stock company to take charge and start out
now next year , or take it now anil go through
the balance of this season and bo getting
ready for next year nt the same tlmo. As to
the players they must and will como back.
Several of them are now In Washington , nnd
it won't take Nick Young very long to toll
them what Is what. There is no doubt in my
mind but that nt least six or seven will very
soon to playing again in Omaha. Shannon
isn't wanted back. There will bo Baker ,
Walsh and Trallloy of the old team to start
with , and thu others will got back as soon as
possible. Until then thu team will get along
with ether players. As far as Dick McCor-
mlck is concerned , ho says that he will do all
that ho can for the association in the way of
letting it have the park.
"President ICrautholT will bo hero In the
moruinir , nnd all papers and agreements will
bo llxrd up and duly signed and attested ut
that timo. "

from ttio Lincoln Giants.
PMTTSMOUTII , Nob. , July 20. [ Special Tele
gram to Tun Bun. ] The second gnmo between
the Lincoln Giants and the Burllnctons occur
red today , nnd resulted in signal defeat for the
Lincoln's by n score of 7 to 3. Yesterday's
great gumo brought a largo crowd to the
park today , as the Giants vowed doop-dyed
revenge. They did their utmost , nnd put up
a great game , but they were not In It with
the gallant Burllngtons.
The second tlmo the locals wont to bat
three runs were marked to their credit ,
easily made with the assistance four rank er
rors by the visitors. This .sot the grandstand
wild , imd y to 1 was freely bet on the Bur
lington. In their half of the fourth the vis
itors made two runs , Mnupin socking the
ball fora two-bagger , bringing Cnrr homo ,
und eventually crossing thu plate himself on
a fumble of Dobb's hit. They scored
again in the seventh on a wild
throw to third. Thcso were the
only runs the visitors made. Maupin , their
splendid catcher , tried to steal homo In the
sixth , nut was prettily caught by Crolghton.
Buck Adams in the sixth made the round
of the bases , nn.'l lu attempt to steal homo on
n slight In in bio by Maupin was caught
almost simultaneously as ha touched the
plate. Uruuslu , however , got homo this in
ning nnd In the seventh Yapp waltzed home.
In the eighth Croighton slasbud out u two
bai eor , bringing Adams homo and scoring
himself on a fumble of Schulhofs hot llnor ,
Castono the visitors' pitcher did great
work , considering his onortof yesterday
und the catching of Mnupin was splendid ,
The Burllngtons made four errors , but they
were not very costly. Sam Patterson was in
the box for the llrst four Innings , unit then
gave way to Yapp , who- pitched a splendid
game , the visitors only making one base-hit
oil him , although ho gave three men bases on
balls. Motz played llrst with his usual ease
and effectiveness , and Adams nn second and
Miller on third held their respective positions
In great shape. Sam Patterson's catch In

Reasons for Thinking the Kljl > t

oily of hu 'Men and Their
I'ccordH.
NK\V YOIIK , July 2i ) . The writer nbout
pugilism In 11 morning paper suys : "IfJIiu
Corbait Is mada the referee of Iho Hall-Pit-
simmons light , eastern people nro likely to
feel assured tlmt Its result , whatever It maybe
bo , will bo honestly arrived at , but It Is
doubtful If Hutl will consent unless ho is
overruled 111 liln objections uy his mentor ,
I'.iMon D.tvtiM. Prior to the Corbott-Juckson
llisht Hull affected to bo'ilovu that he could
whip Corbett , ami lie publicly stated tills
opinion sovor.il times. It ts a fuut he ojuld
not wlm > ono aide of Corbott. Ho may bo u
croat , II : ! I' T , but my private opinion pub
licly oxpivjv i Is ilr.it he Is as crooked us a
r.un's horn I'lUslminoiis is an Ignorant clown ,
but for nil lh.it , bo U a much more iimuiy
fullow than 11.II. ; Ho Is a man , too , .su eopt-
tblo to his environments. Both ho ntid Hull
have told me that in Australia , outside of
the Melbourne and Kidney clulu not three
lights in live nro lonvlit on the level. Fit/-
slmmons f ran lily udmitted Unit being lu need
of money ho laid 'lowu for Hall , lu accord-
nnco with the custom of the antipodes for
15. 1 taxed Hull with this seine time ugo
but tils onlv answer was a sneer.
"I think the fight on Wednesday night will
ho level for several reasons , among which
b'sing ( ho size of the purso. I doubt
if > Hall realizes that tboro are so
many dollars lu the world as J12,000 ,
but Davies will got half of the purse
If ho wins mid ho will see that Hall leaves
no stone unturned to corral them. 'What is
the matter with Davies and Jimmy Carroll
coming to an arrangement whereby Bob and
Jim can put up a tirotty good even go for an
hour or so to satisfy the crowd , and then ono
of them getting u clip on the Jaw and going
out ? Then they could whack uu the purse
bouvccn them and besides make a sure tning
of winning all the outside bets ! ' was the
question asked mo by an old sport at Morris
park Saturday. The vigilance or the Minnesota
seta athletic club is one thing and the
fact that Parson Davloi is far from being u
fool Is another. Ho has made a pretty ( rood
thing out of managing sporting stars in this
country and ho wants and expects to make a
good deal more. Ho knows that the Ameri
can people have no use for fakers and while
ho would greatly like to have Hall win , tboro
is no prospect In my opinion of his going into
any deal to make him victor.
"On the ether hand there Is this to con
sider. Fitzsimmons' personality Is not n
pleasing ono , and his tours through the
country as a llstlo sparring star have not
been proll table to his managers. There is no
money lu him as u show attraction. The
betting is S100 to SIM ) on him. U assuredly
guaranteed the purse , if ho has any doubt in
his miiul as to his ability to win it without
much trouble , ho might go out again and then
retire from the ring forever.
"As I said noforo , 1 don't think this will bo
done. It would bo Ulfllcult , indeed , to fake
so importanta match without detection if the
club people uro at all wary. To recoup them
selves for the loss of llto purse , the Hall
party would have to bet over $00,000 on the
light oven at the present odds : but If such an
amount was offered the odds would fall
to 5 to 4 before night. Then again , FUzslm-
I110H3 has $ ; io)0 , : ) in the bank which ho wnuts
to bet on himself , and if Hull tnono.v in any
quantity is offered without some of this being
bet against it , it will bo almost prlma facie
evidence tnat thcro is n screw loose some
where. AtrulTt I say , I think the fight will
to on the level , and that Fitzsimtnons on
pubilo form should win. "
Hnvcn't Stopped the Fight Yet.
ST. PAUL , Minn. , July 20. A delegation
representing the various churches waited
upon Governor Morrlum , Mayor Smith and
Sheriff Bean this morning and asked them
to prevent the Hall-Fitzsimmons prize fight
Wednesday night. They declined to do so ,
so it is thought ihero is no doubt the prize
fight will take placo.
A host of people from all parts of the coun
try arrived hero last night und this morning
for the purpose of taking In the Hall-Fltz-
slmmons contest on Wednesday and the race
mooting uftorwards. There seems to bo
llttlo doubt in their minds that the flght will
come off. It is fully expected that the sealIng -
Ing capacity of the big amphitheatre will bo
completely sold by tomorrow night. The
management have no fears that the light will
not tnko placo.
This afternoon a warrant wns issued for
the arrest of Robert Fitzsimmons , ono of the
principals in the coming mill. It was sworn
out by William P. Landon. The fact was at
once telogranhod to White Boar and Fitz
simmons and his trainer are now in hiding.
The mass meeting called for tonight brought
together 5.001) ) excited citizens , whoso deep
earnestness found vent in applauding the
strongest kind of denunciatory speeches.
Archblshoo Ireland was the chief speaker
of the evening unu ho arraigned
the prize ring and its lawless
ness and the municipal authorities
for permitting the exhibition. United State , "
Senator McMillan and Kov. W. II. Buttor-
iclcs of the First Baptist church were the
ether speakers ana wore oven moro scvoro
than was the archbishop. Toward the close
of the meeting a memorial wan presented
calling on the governor to Interfere and pre
vent the light , in view of Mayor Smith's pub
lic refusal to do so. U was proposed to pre
sent the memorial tomorrow , but the
crowd would have 110 delay. With
shouts of "present now" It was
decided to carry the matter before Governor
Merriam at once , and the entire 5,000 people
went on mass to the state capital for that
purpose. A committee was sent to summon
Governor Morrlam from his residence to ro-
celvo the memorial. The governor told the
committee ho could not address such a great
crowd , but would receive tholr memorial in
the morning , and the citizens dispersed to
their homes ,
In spite of this action tonight the athletic

opened here tod'ny In earnest. Two rival
race tracks opened only a few mlle * apart
ono by ( Jeorgo Hanklns , ho other by Ed
Corrlgan begun business , each with the
avowed Intention of bankrupting the othor.
The well known dotprmlnou character of the
two men mid the fact that both bavo backers
with funds to oxdmnuo considerably nbovo
ho million murk , add * to the interest of the
contest.
Corrlgiin's track , which Is at Hnwlhorno
and Is the farthest from the town , struck the
llrst blow by udvcrtUiior free admission. Hi *
plnco has had a preliminary meeting already ,
but was closed during the 'Washington park
races until totfnv. The llauklns track , situ
ated at Uarllclil park , It brand now and
occupies Corrlgan's former track , the famous
\Vcst Side course.
At the Garllold park trade , according to
the Inter Ocean , 0,000 people were present
and witnessed some Jlwt class racing. Colo-
iiel M. Lewis Clark of Loulsvlllo occupied
the presiding Judge's chair , whtlo J , II. Mer

being close and exciting. The trial stnkes ,
the event of the day , was captured by J.

colt , Phil Dwyor. Ovorton could not pass C.

A IjUtlu AVIld Talk
. of Troibo. ; !
A monster nlns ? mooting under the an-
spiced of the Central labor union win held at
Iho Gratia opera house last ovonlnc to dis
cuss thu eight-hour law. Uy SslU ) o'clock ' the
theater was full to overflowing and the
leaders and roproinntntlves of the dliTiirout
labor organizations took seats upon the stige.
Vlco President Mmsur of the labor union
Introduced Mr. John Quiiiu , who nolod ns
chairman of the meeting.
Mr. Qulnn on taking Iho chair , said : "I
nm glad to see no many ladles present hero
tonight and so many men. They nro men
that could not bo made to stay away by in
timidation. A few days ago a sign was put
up In the Union Pacific shops which stated
that those who wanted to work eight hours
should apply to their foreman. Of course
this meant instant dl.smls.snl to a
man who wns bravo enough to jpcak up for
the now movement.
"You are as fully aw.u-o of the fact ns I am
that when wo have men standing on Iho
street corners , sleeping in box cars mid
tramping through the country you cannot bo
prosperous and happy. Many uro afraid that
if they work only oignt hour3 their
will bo reduced accordingly. I say never
mind the wages. Some years ago I worked
In n railroad shop llftcen hours a
day , then Ion , now wo want eight
and wo shall got It. Wo have
people all around us who are starving. Lot
us give this labor a chance. They say wo
are getting down to the level of E urono In
labor matters. I say wo are there already.
All through Europe the best minds and the
best thinkers favor loss hours for the labor
ing man. I believe the tlmo has como when
wo ought to limit the supply. Labor Is our
commodity , and our trouble Is our over sup
ply."I
"I have lived In Omaha for twenty-four
years , and have watched its progress. I have
scon men grow rich who novcr worked a day
while wo who work ton hours each day nro
beggars. Some pc.oplo say that. I am an agitator
tater and a dangerous man. What would wo
over get if Questions were not agitated ? I
nm tired of strikes , und hope that by the use
of the ballot we can do away with them en
tirely. "
Upon resuming the chair Mr. Qulnn Intro
duced Mr. John Ahlos of Council Bluffs , late
delegate to the labor congress in Paris.
Concerted Action
Mr. Ahlos said : "I have hero a little paper
printed in Oermauy which advocates the
dent-hour law. You will remember that it
was at the Paris congress whore Iho c'ight-
hour law was llrst taken up. Siuco then it
has spro.id nearly all over the world. I am
positive that I could show to you if I had the
time that eight hours are enough for
any man to labor , enough for both
the employed and the employer.
Last week I listened to ex-Senator Ingalls
when bo spoke at the Chautauqua. Ho said
in relation to the now movement that the
Anglo-Saxon men would find a way out of
the difficulty without serious trouble.
"I know perfectly well thu disadvantages
under which the working men of Omaha
labor in their struggle .for inde
pendence. The state of Nebraska
adopted a law which gives you
eight hours for a day labor. To enforce that
law is the object stated in the call
for this mooting. If you make a trial
you will surely win. The law
which wo are talking about tonight alroadv
exists in the mines of England and is spread
ing Into Germany with the sanction of thu
emperor. In Vienna thcro was a demonstra
tion in favor of the eight hour law , and the
procession numbered 100,000 people.
"If business was brisk hero I think the
law would bo moro easily enforced than dur
ing thu present dull times. Emplovors nnd
society condemn the men who want eight
hours , but if wo stand solidly together wo
will surely win. "
Will Win it. with a Hush.
William Mulholl It Is with a feeling of
pride that I stand before this vast nudlcncu
tonight to speak to so many representative
woritingmon. God helps these who help
themselves , and If we don't dash In nndmnko
nn effort to win , our opportunity will bo lost.
In discussing this question I should like to
take a broader plane and tell you about class
legislation , but as uy time is limited I can
but touch upon that point. This eignt-hour
law which wo wish to make u local question
interests fully 25,000 people in Omaha nlono.
The labor organizations have tuiccn
great pains to bring this question before you ,
und I hope that every one has n proper
understanding of the importance of the move
ment. Many have to sutler in onlor to brine
this matttor to a focus , but wo will never
rest until victory is lurched upon our
banners. Over production of latoris illus
trated very aptly by the largo num
ber of unemployed men SCMI upon
our streets every day. This in u
measure is duo to labor saving machinery
which Is usbd in every possible place. These
men who have come to our shores from
across the ocean , and who will ono day bo
citi/.ons of this gru..t country , will got n bon-
ullt too from the law. It is necessary that
wo rcduco the hours of labor in order that nil
may bo employed. I spent lif'.oon days last
winter working for the passage of this law ,
and if It was allowable hero I would show you
where the class legislation came in nnd
which class it was for. The men wo .sent to
Lincoln to represent us Hung the bills back
in our faces and wo were unrepresented. I
huvo papers to prove thatour representatives
were false to thu trust wo reposed in thorn ,
and WH will throwit in their faces when they
como before us for another election.
Mr. Morris Kretschuer addressed the audi
ence in Gorman and was loudly applauded.
Will Knil onopoIy'H ItiiiKn.
Mr. Kelsey of the harness makers' Union
and uu earnest worker in labor ranks was
next Introduced and spoke as follows :
"Wo are hero tonight to agitate the eight
hour movement. Wo elected a delegation to
go to Lincoln to represent us In the loirlKla-
ture , but they rather misrepresented our
cause. Whllo the law makes tin exception of
farm labor , It Is applicable to wo who uro
employed In the cities and that is
what wo are mostly Interested In , Tills
large meeting shows that there Is an interest
in the matter , and it means the slaying of
the rolgu of monopoly In this state. It is of
interest to both the laborer and his em
ployer that wo have shorter hours. Wo
have moro time for recreation. So many uro
afraid that It will lesson tnelr pay. What of
that ] Lot your brother who stands at the
shop door looking for work stop in and
earn u llttlo .something. Now ho
cannot work because you consume
the whole tlmo. When wo road
that every steamer which lauds at our ports
brings hundreds to our shores , besides thu
young men ot this country who nro growing
up into manhood , Ills tlmo for us to take
some action to reduce tlo : hours of labor in
order that others may live. lu Australia the
eight-hour law U In lorcu and thu laborers
uro now agitating the boven-hour question.
When the civil war was over wo took the
shackles from four million blacks , but
wo riveted them all thu tighter
onto eighteen million whites. I claim that it
Is Just us fair for onu side as the other. A
man can do batter work lu eight hours than
In ton. The best pay is for the shortest
hours.
"Tho only hope for American labor today
U political attention. When the people say
to you -keep out of polities' don't you do It.
Hest assured that thusu saino people want
you to slot ) aside and lot thorn attend to your
political wants themselves.
"Th'iro Is a great deal of talk about
the constitutionality of the law.
I for ono bellovo It Is law
anil good law at that and will hold lu any
court In thU country.
"Don't bo so greedy as to aupposo that
eight hours will n-duco your pay. What if :
It uoosl Ulvo oltior a chunco no there won't
bo so many tramps.Vo must educate our
pee pi u so there won't bo no many tramps nor
such a thing as a strluo. Education will

tion eonunHteojto aottlo till our differences. "
Purely In Irnhnr's Intcrcnt.
O ergo W. Hrowstor said :
' Netinulw has been a state for twenty-two
years , but It wan reserved for tint Twenty-
second legislature to bring forth the only
law over enacted purely In the Interest of

On\Nt ) ItMN-n , July 20.-TO the Editor of
Tin : lJiB : ! Since the showing lu last Sun
day's HII : ; that the di-posits lu the banks In
our county guvo a per capita of $17.11(1o (
bavo felt richer than ever boforo. This fact ,
taken In connection with thoologant prospect
lor crops so evident on every hand , puts us
in n very complacent fr.imo of mind. The
rains have been abundant , vho aoifson favor
able HO far , ami there Is scarcely room for a
doubt that the yield of .small grain will bo
the largest Hull county bus ever known.
Corn Is crowlm ; nicely , and although MIMIO-
what woody by reason of the Immuuso and
unprecedented rainfall , preventing the
proper work being done , it wll' ' come out nil
right nnd the results bo as great ns in former
years.
\ furmor remarked to the writer ono day
this week that ho had never before used over
two and a half pounds of Uvluu to the acre In
binding bis small grain , while this year It ro-
quirou four pounds. Ho estimated his oats
nt Hovcnty-ilvu bushels to the aero , which
Ironi its nppeitranco is by no J
means extravagant. Our fruit crop
was never before so prolific , whllo vegeta
bles are hero in endless quantities ami superb
in quality. Adjectives ml libitum might bu
used In describing our .splendid agricultural
projects , for certainly they were never
liner.
The sugar boots nro sure to make n great
crop this year. Notwithstanding the con
stant ruins , which has militated against the
proper cultivation of them , and made the
weeding and thinning per aero very much
much more difficult and expensive than It
would otherwise have been , the yield will bo
larger , and thu result ; ) generally will demon-
strata that it is n profitable crop to cultivate.
When wo nro interrogated with roferouco
to the number of men that are actively employed - ,
ployed in connection with the sugar factory
