WHAT IS ASKED OF THE CITIZENS
Dick Mnnro Itoilcnm Illnnrlf by timidity
Winning H Very Illnoily Two.Hound
J'lglit Outcome of DIP Homo
Ituces Other .Sport * .
HE base ball nrob-
) lom which has been
perplexing Umaha
for thn past few
weeks reached n
fcllcttious solution
last ovomnir. After
repented trials In
the way ot public
meetings , nt which
it wns expected
enough of the en
thuslasm lying dormant here In the national
pastime , would bo reawakened sufficiently to
once moro put n club in hero nnd curry It
throuch the season proved utterly ineffective ,
the now Woitorn league resolved upon heroic
incasuroi. nnd seizing the bull fearlessly by
tbo horns , they have him In perfect mastery.
The key to the situation Is this :
The longuo proposes to maintain a team
here on Iho same lines the other teams nro
operated In Kansas City , Columbus , Mil
waukee , and , in fact , ot nil of the ether cities
in the circuit , nnd in deciding to do this the
league asks of the business men of Omaha.
\vhoarclnlerj5ted in her advancement and
welfare , to subscribe a purse , say In the
neighborhood of ! , r > 00 , which will enable It
to oqulo A now gtoundx , if neoossury , nnd
otherwise place tlie club ou a basis common-
mirato In nil details with the clubs tn the
ether cities.
AVImt the T.eiiRiin Will Do ,
To moro than equalize thUovidnncn of sup
port upon the purl of the public the Icnguo
proposes to grant Omaha n franchise and
maintain a club In every way equal and pos
sessing all the advantages enjoyed by thn
ether cities In the circuit. This docs not
signify , by any moans , that Omaha will bo
furnlsbod n lean , after the other teams nro
selected , or otlnvwlso subjected to any neg
lect In nny particular , but she will go in on
cqultablo and oven grounds w.'th ' them all ,
nnd bo in the raca n frco and unfettered com
petitor for tlio championship.
As a demonstration that the affairs of this
now scheme will bo conducted with the busi
ness skill Indisponslblo to success ,
It is but necessary to mention that
W. F. Bochol , auditor of the Pacific
Kxpress company , has expressed bis
willingness to accept the presidency nnd
troasurorsblp of Omaha's club ; and'in ad
dition to n vigorous administration of tbo or
ganization's business affairs , will exert hiin-
Kolf In every way to make it n brilliant and
.popular success. Everybody knows W. F.
Jioehcl , nnd It Is Inevitable that the army of
enthusiasts yet remaining In this city , will
hull with delight the announcement ttiat bo
will Identify himself with the city's ono sum
mer amusement. With such a popular nnd
capable head ns Mr. Bochcl the possibility of
anything smar-King of failure Is absolutely
precluded. Mr. Bcchel's numa will give the
national game such u boom as It has , in Its
whole career here , been a stranger to.
Ouiuliu Will IIu\u n Trum.
Notwithstanding tbo signal failure of
everything in tbo wav of publlo mooting in
tho'intercsts of a revival of the game here ,
it Is an undeniable fact that there uro hun
dred * of our best citizens who earnestly want
base ball , who appreciate its ofllcacy as a
factor iu the city's material progress and
prosperity , as there is possible nothing under
the sun that advertises to the world the
energies os a city so effectively as the great
national gamo. 'Again these vqry men. who
'will , undoubtedly , under th'o conditions
herein sot forth , respond freely , nod liberally.
The secret of the nonsucccss' by provfous ef
forts to organize the .club , lies in the fact
tttnt/uo prominent man has como boldly fur-
ward to identify himself with it. Each ono
hold back for tbo ether and the consequence ,
as bos boon the case in thousands ot public
enterprises , was thus deprived of that in
centive that the enterprise assures consum
mation und success.
Wbilo the league only asks a comparatively
email sum na an evidence of the supporter
the citizens , TUB BKK advocates that
the citizens subscribe enough to put
the club on a permanent and solid
basis. Those subscriptions , stock or
otborwlso , should bo paid into the bands of
the treasurer , < Mr. Bechol , withou't neces
sitating u vorv general canvas by any com
mittee ho may tea proper to hereafter ap
point. A numor of prominent gentlemen ,
among whom might oo conspicuously men
tioned Bon Gallagher , John A. McShano ,
Dee Haynes , Itobert Hunter. W. H. McCord.
Joseph Gnrnoau , Jeft Bedford , S. P. Morse ,
thoMotz brothers and a largo number of
others , furnish umplo material for a very
hustling executive committee.
\Vhcr Will the ( ironiuli lie ?
A proposition is being considered for two
distinct sites for now grounds , both across
the. river near the Council lilufTs bridge en
trance. These silos will bo inspected at once
and prompt stops taken looking to n decision
nnd.tbo . consequent equipment of now
grounds.
13.E. Jlowo , who Is undoubtedly ono of the
mostonergotio and competent base ball
'jT-'tnaMtigorB In the country , has been selected
BY by tt o ieaguo tn tuko charge of Omaha's now
i team. Mr. Uovvo has hod cxtouslvo ox-
J * pcr'onco and bis selection Is ono of wisdom.
1 ? Ills management assures Omaha a well dls-
f cipllnod team , and of as good and live an
f nnicloof the national sport as ran bo soon on
/ any grounds in the country. Mr. Uowo will
| remove with his family to this city within
: - the coming week , nnd thcnco to devote his
entire attention to Omaha's now base ball
toaui.
John W. Spons , chairman of the finance
committee aud pnuldont of the Kansas City
base ball club , who has been hero looking
over tuo'ground , expresses himself us well
latisilod with the outlook for base ball In thu
Gate City , and predicts that under the now
conditions , which will govern ttio Western
league , tbat the game hero will awaken all
tuo old-time enthusiasm , and prove a success
financially as well us In an ainusomunt
affording sense. For tha Una tlmo In the
mirjflU of base ball , tha came will bo con
ducted this year in the west strictly nn ceo-
noiulo and substantial business principles.

Hlgbt hero it must bo remarked that the
man who told P. J. Uriflln , alias Baker , alias
Collins , alias Barker , nlias Kelley. that ho
was n tighter was bis wont cnomy. Dick
Moore , the manly St. Paul woltcrwelchu
Rftvo him tbo advantage of twenty pounds
la&t night end then itcliborntcly proceeded' to
make u chopping block out of him.
Tbo light took ulnco within Gerraanla's
classic walls , nnd the crowd , In point of
numbers and respectability , lor nxceedcd
that of nny ether contest In this vicinity for
years. Fully 500 men assembled around the
ring nnd watched the St. Paul boy oauiln-
Utor ono of tbo most finished drubbings to a
big brute that wns over seen In this particu
lar section ot the globo.
Promptly nt 10 o'clock the mnn entered the
ring , Moore with his esquires , Snm Sloven
ian nnd Dave Bloom , nnd the big wrestler
with his handlers , Gcorso Meyers and
Jimmy O'Donnell.
After some little preliminary skirmishing
Ed Rothcry was agreed upon ns referee and
nt 10:1" : ) the gladiators were ordered to shako
hands ,
.Muorii Will In ( luuil Condition.
In strlkln * their positions Iho disparity in
thn slzo ot the two man was conspicuously
noticeable. Grlflln lowering fully a foot
nbovo the handsome lad from Minnesota , and
with lugs nnd arms that resembled those of
some of tno liU' tuadruniaula [ wo read of In
tales of the African jungles moro than those
of n man.
Hut Dick wns In great fighting fig , his eyes
shone like gems , nnd his llo-h had the rosy
glow ot nn nthloto who hod boon properly
nnd carefully trained. His attitude wns
grace itself , his body braced on his sturdy
legs , with the too of the loft foot polsod
jauntily before him. There wns n serious
but confident lopk in his pin ? , nnd a moment
later it wns made evident that ho wns master
of the situation.
There was but llttlo sizing un indulged in.
Moore teen the initiative , and fiddling the
husky sprinter ever toward the south ropes ,
ho feinted beautifully with his lolt , then
smash , his auctioneer bumped up aealnst
Mr. tir inin's jaw. It wns a buto , and Grif
fin was n licked man from that moment.
Kept Him Hoimclng.
Before ho could regatbor himself from this
gentle salute , Dion sprang forward and
[ loliod his loft into his wind with a amuck
Ihnt sounded above the din ot the St. Paul
boy's onthuslaitio followers. This second
attempt nt familiarity onragud Gritlln , and
tie closed with Moore nnd attempted
to throw him , and finally succeeded
in pushinc him to the floor. Then
to add to this foul , ho delivered nn upoor
cut as Dick was rising , that , landing on the
mouth , looked as if it ought to have produced
considerable effect. But it never phased
Moore , and waving back bis seconds who
were clamoring for n decision on the foul ,
ho wont right nt Griflln and smashed him
-right and loft. A gash under the right eye
brought Ibo blood In a gush , and n smash
ever the loft optlo raised a promontory big
onouirh for a cbickon to roost upon.
From this on to tbo close It was a rough-
nnd-tumblo fight , Moore propping nnd lam
basting the sprint runner until he must have
thought that n freight train was running
ever him. The referee allowed the battle to
go on , mid after tbo contestants bad at last
boon pulled apart they were sent to their
corners for their minute's rest.
Fought Like Itoasts.
It was soon ovor. and the men were at it
again like tigers , Griflin clawing , gouging ,
wrestling and elbowing lilto a mail in the de
lirium trcmons , while Moore , lighting lilto a
steam engine , kept up such another fusiltido
of yma hcs on the head , in tbo jaw , np and
down tbo ribs , nnd in every conceivable portion
tion ol the runner's anatomy , until groggy
and all hut out ho simmered about the ring
like a drunken man. With desperate energy
ho mnda a final rally , nnd closing with Moore
he again viciously und deliberately fouled his
plucky llttlo adversary , arid 'slow ' as ho was
about it Referee Rothery was forced to give
the victor his dues , and proclaimed that the
fight belonged to Mooro.
This suited tbo crowd , and amidst n pandemonium
domonium of riotous sound , Diclc was taken
possession of by his overjoyed followers and
carried from the ring upon their shoulders.
Griflin , bloodv , forlorn , homesick nnd
broke , crawled quietly away under the pro
tecting wing of Farmer Burns.
The fight was for a ittalcn of $100 nnd the
entlro gate receipts , which amounted to fully
$500 moro.

formally consider and .approvo the draft of
the speech ,
Victoria' * Speech.
The speech opens with n rotcronco to the
sympathy of the nation for the royal family
over Its roccnt bereavement ; alludes to the
death of the Uhealvo as not altering British
relations with Egypt ; rofora to the con tinned
prosperity of the country mid says there Is
no reason to fear that England will bo ulti
mately afTcotod by foreign tariff legislation ,
and congratulates the country upon the
prospect of an early settlement of Ibo Bor
ing son dispute , and upon the pacific aspect
of foreign affairs generally. The speech
mentions the Irish local government mid
education bills ns milling completeness to a
sorlos of measures for soourlng order In and
the wolf ura of Ireland. Other measures
announced are a small holdings bill , n dis
trict councils bill and bills to reform the In
dian council , and Scottish private legislation.
This last measure has importance beyond
Its application to Scotland , us alUrmlue and
extending the principle of local gov
ernment. It Is proposed td remove , Scot-
Ish private bills from the considera
tion of the House of Commons committee
to judicial committees , sitting in certain dis
tricts In Scotland , The archbishop of Can
terbury has a clergy discipline bill which the
government will support. This constitutes
the business of the session. The loaders of
the opposition do not Intend to tuovo any
amendment to the addross.

Mr. Gladstone will not appear in the House
of CommonH on the llrst week of the session.
Ho has delegated to Sir William Vernon
Htircourt the ta > ilc of questioning the govern
ment as to its intentions In regard to the dis
solution of Parliament. If the reply is in-
dollnlto Mr. Glailstqiio will matte the ques
tion the subject of * great party fight.
A mooting of dissidents will bo hold at the
Devonshire house on Monday , at which Mr.
Chamberlain wUljoo formally accepted as
leaner in the House of Commons. In the
evening the dul/o f Devonshire will give n
dinner to n few a , < lU9rents. No political sec
tion In the wholctcpjintry is in a moro dismal
condition than .aro the dissidents. The
prospect of thelr'oxtincUnu in the coming
elections Is incrojisiac. The local conserva

sented by di3sfioiit5 | , have declared for
purely conservatlvo.candlantos , rejecting the
claims of Austin jCtmmberlatn , who wanted
to stand for ono of < the constituencies. The

Messrs. Sextou , .Dillon , O'Brien , T. M.

O'Connor wore today elected , a committee to
advise Mr. McCarthy. 'lYcsterday evening n
rooort , which wns accepted as probable , gave
to Mr ; Sexton the right 'of succession to the
chairmanship of the Irish party. There is
not yet , however , anything HUe unanimity
ns to who should follow Mr. McCarthy. The
reputation of Mr. Sexton as on able adminis
trator was immensely enhanced during his
tenure of the mayoralty of Dublin and the
sagacitv , tuct and ovonncss of the temper ho

Captain Osborne was glvun thd prlvllogo
to remain with liis-wlto in the Holloway jail
until after the prison doctor certified that
she was sick ana tit for the Inlirmary. Then
he was obliged to loavu. She wns terribly
prostrated and requested conntunt medical
attention. The officials ; of the prison promised
to inlorm bor friends if a htato of dancer
arose during the night. The strain of her
position has told most on her since her ar
rest. She appears to have berne well the
life of a lucilivo tracked by detectives.
Friends state that she was shadowed from
Amiens to Rouen , thence to Evraaux and
to on co to Glsors , whjro ( she rebtod n wouk
under the name of Ogllvy. The officers ,
supposing that she was secreted in a con
vent invaded and searched the institution at
midnight , alarming the whole town. The
fugitive resumed her lllght iu the morning ,
going to Bordeaux , where bhn awaltod tier
husband , with the intention of starting for
Buenos Ayros. Captain Osborno , who was
nlso watched , Warned her to make her wav
to Cadiz. On crossing the frontier she bo-
caino ill at Irtln. and , tiring of pursuit , de
cided to surrender. No plea of mental in-
llrmltv is put forth in her defense , and noth
ing is likely to lesson nor sentence under two
years , in v'ovy of her perjury and her black
ening the reputation of intitnato friends.

setting forth that tbo territory is settled by
people' who know nothing of politics nnd
have never learned to appreciate or conubct

nnd Indignation is expressed nt the shameful
und cruel mUnmnagomcnt of tha govorn-

shown In today's procordlngi. In the llrst

woman were kept walling ovornn bouc bo

Then the solicitor coolly made his nppo.tr-
nnco , declaring ho know nothing about the
matter , but asking leave \vithdr.iw the
warrant on whloh Mrs. Osborno was nr-
rested. The fact Is , the officers of the crown
had nt tbo eleventh hour como to tno con
clusion that the charge of obtaining money
under false pretenses would not hold good.
All tholr united wisdom could not dHrovor
that until tbo miserable prisoner had boon
nmilo to suffer hours ol horrible tort uro In
court.
The warrant was dismissed , nnd tbon , by
way of exhibiting Its zeal , the treasury up-
plied for another warrant on.n charpo of
perjury. Upon this Mra. Osborno will have
to stand trial.
Hauled from one court to another , half mad
with distress nnd fainting from exhaustion ,
this guilty but most unhappy and nfllictod
woman has boon cast Into prison on the
court's romaud , simply because the treasury
grossly mismanaged the case altogether from
n falsa position , Nobodv demands bor pros
ecution. Full reparation tins boon made to
nil injured persons and the treasury Is not
obliged to intorfcro. But H it bat Interfered
