Up to the ninth Inning It W B as pretty a game of ball as any one could wish to see. Tlio visitors played as though they hnd some designs on the game , and President MoVlttle's aggregation put up a game that would win anywhere. The vU- llors , however , were unable to hit White- hill with any effect , while- the home tenm batted like tigers. Wo started right after the game In the first Inning. Seery and.Munyun got a quar tet of bad balls apiece and then McVey tapped out a single towards tlio. left field fence. Seory was nipped In a commendable effort to sneak home on the play , but Fear made It up by lining out a hot ono that brought both runners homo. ' .McFarlan fielded Knurkc out at first and Fisher took care ot Moran's fly. The Suckers went out easy and then a couple ot hits with a base on balls yielded two more runs for the Omahas. Qulncy scored once In the third. Fisher made a clean single and Thorpe cracked a hot ono In an apparently safe spot between JIunyun and McVey. Everybody started to score a hit , but Munyun made a running pickup of the ball that brought down the grand stand and Thorpe had to go to the bench. Krehmeyer made the hit that brought Fisher home , and then a fly catch by Munyun and DuShane's three strikes and out retired the sldo. * Wo tallied three times In the fourth on a couple of hits , an error and Munyun's homer over the left field fence. A couple of clean hits netted the visitors one In the seventh , and then matters progressed very peaceably until the ninth , when the local ball tosscrs gave the visitors a little exhibi tion ot what they could do when they felt llko It. McFurlan made a beautiful one- hand catch of Seery's fly and then Ilourke's aggregation unbottled a case of base hits that gave the visitors a touch of snakes. Singles , two-baggers and home runs followed each other In such quick suc cession that the Suckers lost their heads entirely and a quartet of glaring errors marred an otherwise brilliant fielding game. Nine runs crossed the plate and then we stopped from sheer weariness and saved the rest for today. The last game of the series will be played this afternoon. The game will be called at 3 o'clock to allow the visitors to catch a train , and as It will be the last home game for a time there should be a good crowd out to see them make It three straight. The Omahas will go- away for a two weeks' trip tomorrow , and then they como back and play 'a terles with Lincoln. Score : OMAHA. ATI. BII. PO. A. B. feVry , m 4 JIunyun , lib .

DR , RICE IMS BY A LENGTH Jockey Taral for the Second Time Lands tbo Brooklyn Handicap , CLIFFORD GETS A BAD START Western Crnck Practically Left nt the Post mid Wit * Never n 1'nctor In the Itaco Track OnlcluU All Placed Under ArrcflU BROOKLYN , Mar 15. A better day could not have been desired for the opening ot the race season In New York stale and the running of the great Urooklyn Handicap , valued at $25,000 , at the Grarcscnd track today. The sun rose with a clear sky , be lying tlia promise of the night before , and the air was clear as a bell and a warm breeze swept across the track. At 2 o'clock the horses named for the first race were hoisted on the bulletin board , and the 112 bookmakers , three more than the best on record , began chalking up the orders. Out on the lawn when the race was called there was a sea of heads , their owners packed so close together that It looked llko a solid mass , and others were struggling to get out In the ring , whnro they could see a small part of the race. It was estimated then by good judges that at least 40,000 were present , and many were going homo unable to get anywhere near the track. It was the biggest day In the his tory ot the Brooklyn Jockey club and must have been an Immense money getter , for nearly alt paid their admission , the free passes having been reduced by at least 75 per cent. The place was crowded with ladles , not ono of whom got In without pay- Ing.Just Just before the first race was run an offi cer appeared at the Gravesend track and notified President P. J. Dwyer that a warrant had been Issued for his arrest and told him that he must appear before Justice Walali In Brooklyn tomorrow morning to answer. No arrests ot bookmakers were made. JUDGES WERE ARRESTED. Just before the third race was run Da Lacey again made his appearance. This time he was In greater force , for Sheriff nulling , with a host of deputies , came on with warrants which were likely to take him the whole afternoon to serve. The sheriff and Ills deputies wont Into the judge's stand enclosure and had a talk with Presi dent Dwyer and Secretary Mclntyre , but the two latter refused to state the object of the visit. It was apparent , however , Immediately after the race was run , for the Judges , Colonel nel Simmons , Clarence McDowell and Victor Smith , were arrested after they placed the horses In the third race , and In company with John M. Bowers , counsel to the club , and Senator McCarthy were driven to the town hall In Gravesend.where bail was given , and they were released after some dclay had been caused to the Brooklyn handicap. Sher iff Bulling had other warrants , and It was said that ho intended to arrest the other officials , but he rested content with the ar rest of three Judges and went away from the track. An effort was made to discover the character of the affidavits on which the war rants were Issued , but further than an un official statement that It was for conducting a lottery nothing was learned. During the rest ot the day there was little excitement and the races proceeded without delay. It waa a few minutes past 5 o'clock when the candidates for the $25,000 stake began to move up. When the horses were all at the post the spectators settled down for a long wait , for Starter Howe had not been doing any better thus far than ho did last year. \ MTIDYAREOFF . ' Thirty-two long minutes the assemblage waited , and _ fumed , ind thjsn Immpdlat ly after a long break , Rbwe dropped hla flag- , swishing through the air. ami the start was made. And such a start as It was. Lowlander - lander , the winner ot last year's Suburban , was standing still , and did not get away at all , while Clifford , the heavily backed fa vorite , seemed to be practically left at 'the post. A howl arose from the crowd , for they saw that with , such a disadvantage It was an Imposiblllty for the western champion to do anything whatever. Copyright was the first away , with Henry of Navarre second , Herald third. Dr. Rice fourth , Blltzen fifth and the others bunched as follows : Banquet , Sir Walter , Comanche. AJai , Bassetlaw and Diablo , while Clifford and Sport were al most' standing still , although they got in motion immediately and started on a stern , hopeless chase. Down the stretch they ran , gathering speed with every bound and thun dering past the judges' stand , a quarter mile from the post , with all running well. Copy right , with his mouth wide open , ahead , In front ot Dr. Rice , whom , Taral had taken Into second place. Halt a length away was Henry of Navarre under an easy pull , with Herald and the despised Blltzen following closely behind. There was a bunch In this order : Banquet. Comanche , Aax. Sir Wal ter , Bassetlaw and Diablo. Twenty lengths bshlnd were Clifford , the pride of the west , and Sport In the dust kicked up by the others , with no chance of winning unless all the leaders fgjl. A groan went up from tlio thousands who had bet , for Clifford was now without oven a chance of having a run for their money. , It was disheartening to the owners' ot the" crack , who had cent him so far for the race. Aro'und the turn they flashed with , .vary littla jostling for so. sharp a turn and so narrow a track , and when the half-mile mark was reached and they were straight ened oUt for the run throtigh the back stietch Dr. Rice was a head In front of Copyright , and thus far a very few Inches only had separated their noses as they ran side by sldo so closely that a blanket would have covered both. Two lengths behind was Henry ot Navarre , a head In front of Herald , and all running easily. SIR WALTER MOVES UP. Blltzen was still hanging on to fifth place In good style , while Doggett thought It was about time to bring Sir Walter up and ho was sixth at the half-mil ? . Comanche was still In the seventh place. Banquet had fallen back to eighth and Ajax was be ginning to hold'out signals of distress In the ninth. Bassetlaw and Diablo followed and Sport and Clifford were far In the rear , un able , to gain an Inch on the flying field. They passed thn three-quarters mark with Henry of Navarre In the lead , a head In front of Copyright , with Dr. Rico within striking distance , Taral handling him In. & masterly fashion. Sir Walter was fourth and Basset- law waa becoming dangerous , for he moved up five pegs and looked good for much more. Comunclio was sixth , Banquet seventh and Diablo eighth. The mlle was covered by Navarre In 1:42 , and ho was u , head In front of Dr. llic > , who had come up. Copyright had dropped back to sixth place. Sir Walter was a .Ipnglh behind Dr. HIco and two lengths behind Bassetlaw , who was 'still very much In the race. The . .otherswero running In the order they passed the three- quarter * polo and completely out of It. INTO THE STRETCH. Into the stretch the horses flew , Sir Walter ami Bassotlaw getting whip and spur. Dr. Klc < ? began to wear down the gallant 3-year-old and Clayton was urging Navarre to his utmost , but hla horse was stopping fast under him. Bassetlaw was hanging on to Sir Walter , with Comanclio close be hind. The frantic yells from the crowd were heard , and , as thu watch ticked 2:0714 : , Dr. Hlce , tha tastoff from the Gideon & Daly stable , flashed under the wire a length In front of Henry of Navarre , with the great Sir Waller one and a half lengths be hind and two , lengths In front ot llassetliw. Comunche wa fifth and the others any where , all In the stretch. Hats went Into the air , and for the second year -succession Taral waa placed In the tloral jockey's chair and carrfed off by the crowd. It uaa a true run race and well.won.

LOUISVILLE , Mny 15-Over 15,000 people ple assembled at Churchill Downs to see the contest for the .twentieth renewal of the Kentucky Derby : Although this race has steadily dep-oil'fttjd In Impoitnticc ns a turf event for seven ? ! years , the hi.'ior of taking this cl.m In the trophy Is still keenly sompotjd fo > - by the Kentucky breeders , as It la ruiMrdcd ns the highest test of thorou < jh'jrid ' colt to take up JJ ! pounds over a mile and n half In tiK.lnir time nt the bcglnit n * of the season , and frequently th'3 winner and many of the paitlclpanla tire broken down and end their turf careers as a result of the prep arations for und participation In the race. Long before noon the free field was packed with the nondescripts who , In ac cordance with old Kentucky racing cus toms , take a. holiday on tills rcc&slon. The smart thunder shower had no effect upon this clement. It probably Improved the track , laying the dust r.nd leaving It In good condition , as the time made In other events on today's card Indicates. Lexington , the Blue Grass capital , had not sent a local champion thin year to contend for the Blue Ulbbon and Turf stakes , but ns the FTUsetto colt. Chant , came from the Lexington to this course they supported him as against the Louis ville trained horse , rather than be without a champion. This support and the fact that practical turfmen , who regard racing as a business and not from a sentimental standpoint , favored a horse who had al ready run and won as against unknown quantities who luul not faced the nag save In their 2-year-old form , made Chant A I prohibitive favorite , and the result of the race showed the wisdom of the Judgment ot the many , as Chant "won all the way" as he pleased , and might have easily dis posed oC a much better field than he met today. Pat , the Scoggans' colt , while of good enough quality to have made the race In teresting , was withdrawn today on ac count of a split off sustained In exercising. The horses got away at the second break. Tom Etmore making the most of a running start and showing half a dozen lengths In the van for the Ilrst quarter , when Pearl Song took up the running and showed the way. to the stand. Here Chant drew up with the bunch , and was In front for the run up the back stretch , and , running easy under Goodale's restraining pull , he kept just In front of his Held Into the stretch. At this point , the lost quarter of the dis tance , the bunch hud became a procession , and Chant , easily stalling oft the chal lenges .of Pearl Song and Sigurd , galloped down to the finish and won by a ROCK ! six lengths from Pearl Song , who was ten lengths In front of Sigurd. Al Boyer was fourth and Tom Elmore was so bad a fifth that he would have been distanced had the flag been used. The fractional time was as follows. Half , 52 4 ; three- quarters , l.'lS'/fc ' ; mile , l:40i : : mile and a quarter , 2:13Vi : ; mlle and a half , I:41. ! The value of the stake to the winner was , $1,020.

( Special Telegram to the Bee. ) The nineteenth annual tourna ment of the Nebraska ' State Sportsmen's as sociation opened up hero on the local club's shooting grounds this morning under na favorable auspices as has distinguished any of the former shoots. In fact , there Is , ono noticeable feature about the present tour nament that has always been absent at these annual gatherings , and that Is an entire absence of foreign professional talent. A largo majority of the participants are pure ly Nebraska sportsmen , and those who nre hero from adjoining states have never fig ured with any degree ot consplculty within tlm expert ranks. Heretofore such sure thing artlsta as "Chippy" IJudd , Holla Hicks S. A. Tucker , Fred Qulmby , Charlie Grim Jim Elliott , Scdam. Mechllng Haywood and a score of others were always on hand and were always "In and In" on all the events. This , of course , was discouraging to the local shots of lessor caliber , ant many , of the events would dwindle down tea a simple strife between professionals. This spring theru are none ot these familiar old faces on exhibition , yet there are a number of local shots hero who take rank with the 'finest shots In the country , noticeably Frank S. Iarmclec , G. W. Loomls , C. E. Latchshaw , Ted Ackerman , H. I ) . Kennedy J. C. Read , "Uncle" Ucn , J. C. Duer , Pete Slmpsoa and others , and while the shootIng - Ing will In all probability bo up to the high est standard , the best ot feeling prevails and the different events will bo well filled. The local club , which consists of G. D. Spctcc , G. A. Scliroedcr , A. Q. and H. J. Arnold. J. S. Wells and D. F. Davis , have made all their arrangements with the very best judgment , and the shooters are lavish In their praise. The attendance here this morning Is fully up to that of the first day of any previous meeting , and promises to be doubled when the evening trains arc all In. Among those on the grounds are : Frank Parmelee , W. H. S. Hughes. Goodley Brucker , Fred Blake , J. C. Read , Will Townsend , H. B. Kennedy , J. W. Gwln , George W. Loomls and O. E.

Miller , York ; Dan Bray , Syra cuse ; Pete Simpson , St. Edwards , and a largo number of others whose names arc not just now obtainable. The day would have been perfect for the sport had It not been for the wind , which came from the south In a veritable hurri cane , sweeping straight across the target range and dead away from the live bird traps , rendering good scores a rarity. This was noticeable especially In tlm target events , and the ridiculously low scores of some of the very best shots Is thus accounted for. The Merldan hotel , by reason of a handsome contribution on the part of Its genial proprietor , Jolin O. Pollock , was made the headquarters of the visiting sportsmen , and right royally are they being" taken jiare of. ' The morning card , was Inaugurated with seven Ilvo birds.
