M TiJUtU ( J31AHA DAILY BEE : JUITDAY , OCTOBER 2 , 1891 I ANYTHING TO BEAT CHICAGO , How the Bunco Qamo that Landed Boston m Top Was Worked. OPINIONS OF SOME EASTERN EXPERTS , Now York CrnnkM Don't Mlco It Tim Aliirnniic Olifjimted L'liulu Anso Won't Klolc Tins Oilmen YoHtcrduy. Nr.w YOIIK , Oct. 1Vhllo 1 the nvorago Ncxv York base ball crank scouts the Idea that tbo ( .Slants would bo g'ullty of throwlnicn game fnriiny consideration , lie la utterly atn loss to account for tbo rldlculons ease with which the local team has been llvo successive times overcome by the Hustons. Many lovers of the national game who nro not suf- flclenUy cntbuslastlo to bo classed with the cranks are free to admit , however , that the present state of offalrs has a mighty sus picious IOOK , and the quintuple win of the Ilubbltm has caused a great deal of unpleas ant talk. Hoston was compelled to win sixteen - teen names In succession in order to oust the Chicago team from the lead , and before - fore the former team began Us won derful spurt no OHO hero apparently bad the least Idea that such a feat could bo accomplished. Tonight , how ever , uny number of pcoplo can be found in sporting resorts ready to declare that they all along expected this result. .As the re sults bv Innings began to bo displayed on newspaper bulletins this afternoon crowds blocked the streets , and when It was llually found that Anson and his men bad dropped to second place there was no scarcity ot re marks to the effect that now the pennant would "surely go to an eastern club anyhow. " That this is the nub of Now York baseball sentiment ttioro can bo no doubt. There is an uneasy fueling , however , on account of Chicago's determination to contest four of Boston's victories on the ground that tbo constitution provides that two Ramos shall tie played on tbo same day only with tbo consent of two-thirds of the league clubs. Should tbcso ba thrown out Hoston would have u percentage of .018 , leaving Chicago cage tbreo points ahead , and the result would depend on the remaining guinea played by Boston at Philadelphia and Cincinnati at Chicago. A game taken by Chicago by for feit from from Pltlsbure and protested by the latter club must also bo taken into con sideration. If Chicago were to lese that pamo her record would Do eighty-ono vic tories and llftv defeats , with a percentage of .018 , oxactlv the same as Boston , providing four games wcro taken from the latter. Thuso feauturos of the present muddle cause thu Gotham ball crank tnucti uneasiness , but bo always manages to smile when ho thinks of today's score at Cleveland. BOSTON , Mass. , Oct. 1. Tim Murnanc , the base ball expert , was asked for his opinion of the situation , unit In bis own words ho said : "All of tbo eastern teams have put up a wretched game in this city duiing their last series , Brooklyn and Now York , perhaps , doing tlui most careless work. The last flvo Raines between Hoston and Now Yoik have been a farce , us the Giants have playou in different b.m and had In their weakest bat- tnrios. What Is more , the sli'ns of the Now York pitchers wcro given to the Boston men , who have Known just the kind of balls to hit at. I do not think the players gave tlio games to Boston , but I do think they were anxious to sro Boston beat Clucaeo out for thu ponmmt and were pleased when Boston won each game. "John H. Day and Buck ICwlng are great friends of some of the directors of the Boston club , and no doubt would much r.ithcr see Boston win than Chicago. In all my ox- orlon co T never saw a worse exhibition of E asoball put no by a professional t < jam in fielding and base running than tbo Giants gavohero In the last llvo games. It was not giving Chicago a fair show for tbolr money , , nlthough.Boston has put up a good , steady rsgSaiDO * for tbo last two week' ! . % The patrons ' of the game here have found no end of fault with the careless work of the visiting teams during the last tbr'co series , and I don't blamothema bit. Although anxious to see the homo team win the ponant , I would much rather sco tbo visiting dubs plav with a little tnoro Ufo. Manager Seleo is of the same opinion. This monkey business will do the game no good. " CLEVCI.IMI , O. , Out. 1. "No , " said Cap tain Anson yesterday , "I do not believe that the eastern clubs are throwing games to Bos ton. I have never said so , and I don't mean to. I think too much of the national game , I believe too sincerely in the honesty of the men playing base ball to think for a moment that games are being thrown. "Yes sir. " Anson ho , repeated , as arose from his clmlr and walked across the rooin"I would rather lese the pennant ; I would rather llnish second after all our work of the past month than Believe that Boston Is win ning games by having thorn thrown to hoi- by other clubs. It's absurd , it's nonsensical to say that. I do think , though , that if Chicago cage had been playing against Now York she would have faced somebody else beside Conghlln and Sullivan. Wo would have got liusio about three times in succession. "Do vou imaglno , " asked Anson earnestly , "that Boston could have won that game that wo got from Cleveland yesterday ? Never in the \\orld. Thot game was won by wonder ful batting and could have been won In no other way. And , moreover , " said Anson , "IhiU Boston team has no license to win the pennant. Toll mo wherojhoy nro stronger than Cleveland outstdo of tneir pitchers. You can't do It. Sco how wo have had to play ball. These three gamowllh Pitisburg last week were something ( rightful. That club never played such ball as they did nirnlnsl us last week. That's the kind of boll playing wo have run up against. "Of cour-io I want the pennant , bat I want to win it siiuarelyon Its merits. " J.I1.HIUK. Ilenrtlirokon Unuln Anne I.ct.s Go All Hold on thn Prnmtiit.

INTERCHANGE OF BRIGHT THOUGHTS , AVords ofVl.siloin Mingled In K\- s of AVnrnt ) r \ IluriiiiPt to Ho A most hauilsomn compliment , and ono that the honored guest could not fall to ap preciate , was the banquet tendered lasl evening nt Jho Mlllard by Omaha's loading citizens , Including bankers , business and professional men , to Hon. K. Kosowator , editor of Tin : Br.t : , on his safe return from a four months' F.uropeau tour. It was a welcome nnd o.\ptosslon of good will and esteem , pleasant in Us conception , royally commendatory In Its purpose and most happy In Its execution. Hon.V. . A. Puxtoti , Thomas Swobo , csq. , and a few others of the oldest and most sub stantial men of the city and life long friends of Mr. Koscwutor planned the little surprise , and in their efforts tbov woio warmly seconded by scores of enthusiastic and energetic citizens. At 8 o'clock the 150 invltad guests began to assemble at the Mlilard , where n half hour was given up to hand shaking and nn Informal reception , Tbo spacious rotunda was llllea almost to overflowing , and as the Inflow continued the guests gradually drifted to the parlors on the second floor , where they found luxurous comfort on the cozy chairs and divans ir. the presence of congenial friends. The Musical Union orchestra was stationed at the bead of the main staircase , where under the leadership of Prof. A. Uohr , they contriuutca their full ( juoto to the pleasures of the occasion. At U o'clock the doors to the main dining hall were opened and Hon. Elcazor Wakolov and Mr. Koscwator headed the long line of banqueters that nt once moved to their places about the social board. Very I'ri-lly Place. The decorations , whllo not elaborate , were particularly tasteful and pretty , Mr. Swobo having personally superintended the artistic grouping of evergreens and flowers. In the deep bow window in the west , Mr. Hosowator's picture done in oil by Mr. John Mulvany , tbo artist , was placed on a pretty easel. At the foot of the stand a network of palms and ferns were interlaced , giving a tropical appearance to that portion of the banquet hull. Around the gold frame ropes of smilax were deftly wound , glvlntr an airy aid blrnrro effect to the deep embrasure of the window. The long tnblos In their wealth of snowy linen and cut glass v/ero further relieved by potted plants placed at Intervals along the board , palms , ferns , India rubber trees giv ing a particularly inviting appearance to thu room In contrast to the ram und the fog out- sldo , which was very suggestive of Long fellow's poem having the rain as a majo'r themo. Breaking tbo lines of groan toliago along the tables , there were quaint jardinieres , ex quisite rose bowls tilled with the choicest of la Franco roses , lilies , and the flowers of late autumn , the whole making n particularly boautilul picture under the myriad electric lights , which shonoupona scene of brilliancy seldom equalled oven In the effete east. The largo buffets on the east were nlso ar tistically ornamented with banks of tropical plants , making n perfect on&omblo. The chundlllora in the main hall were twined with smilax and greatly added to the effect iveness of the picture. Throughout * ire the arrangement of the impery , the cut glass and the china , in addi tion to the floral decorations , n cultivated taste was il.jplayed , a tribute to the training of the gentleman who had the major portion tion of the arrangements In charge , Hon. Thomas A. Swobo. * Was a "Work of Art. The menu card was a work of the litho graphers' and printers' art , as was the menu itself the product of the most skillful effort of thoMillard's chof. The design upon the cover , which was gotten up for the occasion , was n most appropriate and sug- gostlvo as well as reminiscent ono. A boo hive , copied after these wrought in enduring granite in the massive walls of TUB Bcu bulialng , was n prominent feature , and about it clustered Its swarm of busv ccupnnts , while to the left was a telegraph key , and in the foreground the ancient quill and ink well that tradition accords a promi nent plnco In the editorial sanctum but which In reality exists there as else where only In tradition. The inscription was : "Dinner to Hon. Edward UosoMator , Upon His Ho turn from Kuropo. Thursday Evening , October First , Mlllard Hotel , Omaha. " The menu was n lengthy ono of eight courses , nnd of it , it only need bo said that it was served at the Mlllard , which bears n more eloquent meaning to these who have ovoro assembled there about n banquet board than inoro words or cold typo could convoy. It was 11 o'clock before the epicurean sur prises were over , nnd the snapping and flashing of the matches at ono end of the long tables , barely disccrnablo through the smoke arising at the other , betokened the arrival of another yet scarcely loss onjoyahlo part of the oVening's pro gramme. Before the toastmaster had an opportunity to begin his duties , Hon. W. F. Bechel made an announcement that was not received with unalloyed Joy. It was to the ortcct that the waiters would not servo during the speech of reception , as quiet was nocessarv that all might hear. "That won't go , " said ono good natured re monstrant near the lower end of the table. "Yes , it will. " said Mr. Bochel , "and the order will be observed. The waiters will re main nt the other cnnof the room. " "Wo are all right then , " said the aforesaid remonstrant , and tbo regular order was pro ceeded with. TonHtmaster IVnkoloy Itoiuarlccil.

On the great questions that have , 'oncorncd the arowth anil welfare of our city and state , Mr. Hosowator has o/or been on the right side.

In his battle against the fanati cism of prolilbltllih , he was a host. Ho has achieved fdr himself honor and fame : I might say greatness.

The guest of the evening was briefly Intro duced by the toastmaster , but the applause that greeted him was so tumultuous that it was some time before quiet was restored. Ho spoke substantially as follows : Mr. Toastmaster and File ds and Kollow Citizens of Omaha : The tribute which basso eloquently been paid to mo both by the toastmaster - master and thn nontleman who has preceded mu Is not Intended as a poisi.ual congratula tion , hut rather as an expression of good will and compliment to thu paper that I have founded There is in cvory cliv of thu pop ulation of Omaha room for two greatopapers. Thuro should bo no such rivalry n.s would prevent - vent the two great papers representing tlio two great panics from doing tholr part lu lighting thu battles of the state and nation , when It comes to material nnlfnrc and pios- porlty. Kor myolf , I have felt no Jealousy toward otliurs engaged In .loin imli.sm , A few years ago. when Ir. ) Miller ictnriied fiom a trip abroad , 1 was among the eltl/ons who gathuiccl to express tholi gratltudu for his cf- foits toward building up Omaha. 1 liavu boon nvurwholincd hy this expression of Interest on thu part of thu Judges of our courts , bankers and professional nnm who have coma to greet mo and thu papur I have helped to build up. Tlio Imperishable character of a gruat newspaper has been demonstiatcd. nnd It has 1 eon shown that In the hands of a corps of skilled young men It can still go on and bo u great power , notwith standing the absence or disability of thn man whobiiili It up. Holt will ho after I have nnssod iiway. 1 am convinced that the paper 1 .stalled twenty years nso Is now on such a substantial foundation that It will snrvl\ all nolltlcal changes that will comu to iSobrasUa In futuiuycars. AVhat lie Saw Abroad. Mr. Hosowator then referred to his trip abroad. Ho spoke of the national holiday ns observed in France , and of his feoltng of pride when ho saw the American Hair floating In the brec/o and the red , white and blue worn on every man's breost. Two weeks ago ho saw liO.OOO troops pass in re view before tuo umporor and empress of Ger many , and heard the band play "America. " Ho then learned that Germany and America have the same national nlr. Ho spoke of the wonderful Increase In Hamburg's population In the past few years , duo to the two sots of imrbors , ono frco and thn other the protect ive nnd custom house harbor where the Hamburg population pavs duties ns per tariff. It cost the Germans S'JO.OOO.OOO , nnd the French $10,000,000 , and the shaker thought as ho noted the result that thu plan might bo iidviuUcously | adopted in tills country. Ho visited the palaces - aces of kings , and the dungeons of tbo Inquisition uinl saw the Instruments of torture. Ho stooM on the spot where the liastllo stood , nolv designated only by u mark on the pnVUmont. In the onward march of tlmo nn nvunuo has been built from the Bustilo to thu t'nlhadcs nnd called the Avenue of the Kupil | > iiu. > Jlo found abroad a bust of Franklin nuda , picture of the siege of Yorktown , with tnp pictures of Washing ton and Kochamburtirboth displayed , and the [ lioiuro of the fHtHtr of his country was jotter than any thrit'ho ' hud soon on this side of the water. At Pottsdam ho saw the will of Frederick thd .Groat , ns It lays on his desk , written In French. Ho noticed the 'am that there arq many Fioucu Hugs In Germany , but the revoke Is not truo. Frnnooil * Iinplacalilc. The stutuo of 'slrasburg Is draped In mourning , nnd there are In Franco miles of ilcturns of battles whcro the French thrashed .lie Cm-mans , but none where the Germai s .hrashed the Fioncb. In Vienna ho saw the bed whereon Napoleon slept nt Schoonbrunn , iftor tbo bnttlo of Austerlitz , and whore his son died. Ono notlcable fact was that sul- cldo had no effect in the Inni'lios of the crowned heads. They were accorded nil the honors of a burial bolittlng their high rani ; and station , but a poor devil who thus Rhullled elf his mortal cell stood no show to gut Inside the church enclosure. Ho found the Europeans moro clvlllzrd than Is ordinarily supposed hy Americans , and that they llvo bettor und dross better .ban wo think from thn emigrants wo see in Jastlo Garden. The laboring clasjos nro poorly paid , but thov take their work gradually , aud In the venlngs sit down in tno | > n i Burdens and slug , The L'uropcan natin. < ' > < ! a great lent of money to regale their . < nio in public ball * nnd great gardens Th"y have line uusio and iho common pcop'e ure frco to enjoy It. The rich and poor mingle wllhou being at nil Inednvcnlencod. Koino Ono thing that Impressed the speaker dur Ing his trip w.that American ellios new more parks and more beautiful breathing spots. With our wldo streets ho though spots could bo ns readily beautified hero n there. ThU scntlmant found n responsive chord In the hearts of nil present. Another thing , ho noticed that street wcro much cleaner abroad , nnd ho though Now York the dirtiest city in the world nildo from It.s nauseating odors , nnd Chicago was little bolter. Ho had not much to way nbou Omntu streets , wtilch compare favoiai.lj with Chicago nnd are batter than Nmv York Wood paving Is being discarded In most for olgn cities as here , as It Is full of holes um rots In two or three years , lie found loss Icnonmco than ho expected , nnd In Paris al porters , waiters and shopmen Insist on ex pcrlmcntingon Americans with their 1'ng llsh. The school facilities are excellent , nm they go farther than in this con nlry nnd toacl a trade. They have trades' unions , but they are less nggrossivo than ours , so fur us ni lowing Iho m > xt generation to bbcomo competent potent is concerned. Ho visited the houses ot commons am lords , the reichstag niul French general as sembly , aud found all concerned with the great question of how to nmcllorato the con dltlon of labor and as to the restraint of the liquor trafllo by thu high license principle They oxpcot to pass laws to that effect the coming winter , as the bills will bo Introduce by prominent mnn. lOnrnpc.m Manners. Ho did not see half a dozen men drunl outsldo of ICngland. The pcoplo on the con tlnont take an occasional glim of beer , but thcro are no bars and uo treating. Americans cans who nro prohibitionists nt home take their wlno or bcor there and scon to think that U Is nil right Ho thouu-ht beer would got awaj with the French in the future Politeness can bo learned from foreign ofll- clals , but In the hotels and stores it amounts to servility and becomes nauseating. Thoi nro very slow In the banns , and it requires extreme patience to transact business. The two names beat Known In Kuropo nro Edison and McICinley. There nro no ton- story buildings thoro. nnd tno big buildings were all croctod by the American life insur ance companies. The general feeling among the Germans Is that they want all their American pork , meat and grain possible ut the lowest price. Canned American meat sells there at S cents. The ono ono obstruction Is the sani tary regulation that holds live stock three weeks before it can bo slaughtered , but ex pect that It will bo soon revoked. The papers nro demanding tbo removal of the restraint. The obstruction to grain is a treaty with Austria lo aid each other In case of war , but at the session of the reichstag next winter It may bo suspended or repealed. There will bo a great demand for American meats. to All. In closing , the speaitor expressed his sin cere thanks for the recaption accorded him , and promised to cndoavbr to merit the con fidence expressed in him. Ho said : 1 will aim to use the power of a great paper lo further the Interests ot thu slito anil pro mote all enterprises In thu city of Omaha that will conduce to her welfare and growth. And one of the most Important factors In her growth will bugood government. Thu trouble todiiy Is luck of confidence1. Our people must have confidence that money raised from our taxpayers will ho expended for thu public good. I can sue that business In Omaha has been stagnated by a laxity In public morals mid becaiisu all aru not working together for the good of Omaha. Wo want a readiness on the part of our wealthy men to use their money ior umana s KOOU anil not noiu IMOIC lor roar It will hunellt MIIIIO 0110 else more than It will them. 1 trust that In thu nuxt thirty days all who want good government will fall In line anil sue that wo have It next year. Mr. Hose water was frequmitly applauded , nnd his remarks were listened to throughout with the closest interest. Senator I'ad.lock'H Telegram.

Scarlos testified that ho married for love and all she had , and although tno fact was made Known during the hearing that ho 10- celvcd over 513,000,000 from her on Juno Ib , ISSS , ho thought so little about it that hu did not ascertain tbo amount until several months subsequent to that date.
