Kansas City , 11 ; Minneapolis , 3. The tallcndera mads It three straight yes terday and the Omaha fans left the grounds with the biggest crop of disgust they have harvested this season. And It was enough to make any loyal friend of the national game rls ? up In wrath to see how our alleged ball team burlesqued It and held It up to the ridicule of the rabble. Why , those yellow- backed Suckers simply laid down along the base lines and laughed to FCC how poorly Papa's hired men could play when they wanted to , and at times the spectator was led to doubt whether some of those players had ever really played the game before or had s rvcd their time playing mumbletypcg In their grandmother's back yard. It would not have seemed half so bad If the game had not been started off In such a brilliant way. After we had vainly tried to get our customary start In the llrst inning the visitors came up and wore retired In a manner that made them give up all hopes of winning for a f-w minutes. Mr. Ileymer , once of Missouri Valley , wan In the box nnd he struck big Andy Homers out Just aa easy ns could be. Then McV y caught the ball on the nose and propelled It straight for the center field corner. But old General Seery made a quick run and jumping a couple of feet Into tlu air Just reached the ball with one hand as It was about to strike the fence. It was the greatest catch that has been made on the grounds this season and the crowd never stopped ch'erlng for the re mainder of the Inning , lloland lilt to Ulrlch , but McVcy muffed the throw. Mertcs lifted a fly to Pcdrocs , so the error did not hurt anybody that time. And then In the second we went to work nil batted out a lead that prom ised to win the game , and It would If the Missouri Valley strate gist had received anything like the support ho was accustomed to have out In the sage brush , Hutchlnson went out with a long fly to MoVey , hut Moran took a base on balls and Pcdroes took him to third with a clear two-bagger. At this stage Fear got one where he wanted It thiil smashed It over the fence for a homer. It was a beauty , and t\ery one thought that we would win In a walk. Merles made a circus catch of Beymcr's line hit , but Ulrlch managed to get himself hit In the ribs with the ball and Langsford singled. Scery followed suit , and then McVey dished out one of his favorite two-base hits over the left field fence , and two more runs trundled In. Hutch hit It hard , but It fell Into Munyan's grip and we gave tha yellow backs a chance. Hlght hero the story of the game must end. It looks pretty so far , but If the rest of It was told It would spoil It all , Beymer was hit fieely In the sixth and seventh In nings , but this was no excuse for losing. It was stupid fielding and base running , pure and simple , nnd the errors were of that rotten order for which there was no excuse. Moran did not make an accurate throw during the game , as Is Indicated by the way In which the Suckers fattened their base stealing pcrcjntage. McDougat was taken out of the box after the second Inning , John son going to left and Donnelly doing the rotating with better success. Pedroes was taken sick towards the last of the game nft-r ho hod thrown a ball twenty feet over second base with a runner going home , and was replaced by Lookabaugh , Score : OMAHA. A.B. R. IB. SII.

TheRtatement Is nn Intiiftlco to ns and partial In the ex treme. That article says we weighed less than l.GOO pounds , when In fact we weighed 1,890 pounds just before going to the grounds to play ball , and the Denlson nine weighed but u few pounds more. We cleuily out played them until In the last half of the fourth Inning , when our pitcher met with an accident that put him out of the box , the score nt that time being 9 to 23 In our favor. The Dunlap boys were entertained In a royul manner by Denlson's fats , and this Btatement Is made only lo correcl the Imprerplon that wo were not up to the standard In weight. W. H.

As the dates for the Ganymede Wheel elub tournament draw nigh wheelmen lose all Inlciest In minor events und look eagerly forward lo tliu 23d , 21th and 25th of this month , when they will be plunged Into a veritable maelstrom of lantern parades and cycle racing. The Ganymede club meet will go down In cycling history ns the diamond mend meet of the went. Very few race meet promoters have dared to hang up the costly nnd glittering prizes that will be tossed to Ihe lucky winners of bolh class A and B races on Ihe 24lh and 2.1th. The magnificent prize list has attracted the attention of all wheelmen In Ihe middle west , ami n great crowd of visitors l.s ex pected. The meet will be a big thing for Council Bluffs nnd a bigger thing for the 'Medes. Tin * elub olllcers have rested very Httlo In their effoils lo make the meet a success , nnd fiom present Indications their efforts will be amply rewarded. Entries are from points at a distance and bcpcak the hustling abilities of the club In adver tising. Krarney will send over her famous relay team. Fremont , Des Molnes. St. Louis , Sioux City , Chicago , Denver , Ha.st- lns , Gtnml Island , Lincoln , Wayne and Bc- alilco will all be represented by fas-t men In bolh the A nnd B classes , nml Omaha wilt have her "push" present In full force. The Council Bluffs boys have been Iraln- Inu fnllhfully for several weeks and will make a showing , notwllhfitandlng the scores of fasl men with whom they will have lo compete. A in eminent wheelman , who has ber-n carefully watching the nlgn.S of the times predicted that the meet would bu one of the most notable held this year , and that me races would have lo be run In sev eral heals lo give all of Iho compelllors a chance. In addition to the visiting class A men there will undoubtedly be several class B men In attendance who have gained a nallonul reinitiation , men who have records for th ( ! mile under 2:10 : , such flyers as Mur phy , E. C. Johnson , Callahan , Goctz , Helg- ler , Holes nnd McGtilre. A race between these speeders will be well worth going u distance lo see , this , too , on a mile track In the best of condition. On the evening of the 23d a lantern parade of the visiting wheelmen and Omaha clubs , chaperoned by the Ganymede Wheel club , will tnke place. The parade will be starled from the Gany mede club house , nnd , after following a roule which will lake Ihe paraders over the principal business streels of Ihe Bluffs and Omaha , will eventually wind up at Its starting point. Captain Williamson has Is sued Invl'allons to the capt Ins of the dlft rent - ent Omaha clubs and also extends a general Invltallon to nil wheelmen , attached or tm- allached , to take part In the pantile. The parade will be so arranged tht the head of the column will strike Douglas street about 9 o'clock. It Is believed thai 400 or 500 wheelmen will lake parl with their wheels gaily decorated and Illuminated. "After the meet Is over , and the races all run , " a grand banquet will be given by the Gany- mcdes to the visitors. No definite nrrnnge- munls have been made ns yet , although the commltlee hns cast its eyes many limes In Ihc direction of Manawa us Ihe probable place. bCIINiil. : COT IN ON TliK MONEY. l-'inlrOied Seventh In the.

Lord and Lady Lennox were aboard Valkyrie at the time of the col lision and Lady Lennox was much prostrated by the accident. "Lord Lennox and her ladyship arc proml- luiil In llrltUh society and have many friends. Lady Lennox Is quite a yachta- woman , and enjoys the honor of being the only lady on board Valkyrie In her llrst race against Vigilant In Drltlsh waters. U was the Intention of the lord and his wife to participate In all the rates along the dif ferent Drltlsh coasts in Valkyrie , and both were fitted out In the way of clothing , etc. , for a month's cruise. Lady Lennox brought with her valuables of great worth , many be ing priceless on account of their being family relics. Mr. Clark offered to pay them full value for all they lost , but without prejudice , so that such settlement should not be In any way used as evidence against him In case of suit clthsr by Lord Dunraven or any one else. Lord Lennox refused to accept this proposition , though Lord Dunraven agreed with Air. Clark , but the without prejudice was hardly proper , us , In case of litigation for the loss of Valkyrie , It might bo preju dicial to Valkyrie's Interest. "Lady Lennox talked with all the leading yachtsmen. It Is said , and the prominent mem bers of the Hoyul Yacht squadron , and so convincing were her arguments that she won over from the other side to lur side four of the leading society swells of the club to ac complish Mr. Clark's defeat , which came In the way of a great surprise to many of the members who wer ? favorable to Mr. Clark. Lord Dunraven was present at the club meetIng - Ing when Mr. Clark's name was acted upon , but he declined positively to take any part whatever , leaving the members free so far as he was concerned to act for themeselvcs. HIS IliailNI S WAS GRACIOUS. Ualr * MnsimiiltiioiiHly Decline * to Itiico Against Could'M ( rippled Yiielit. COWES , Aug. 19. When Vigilant ar rived here yesterday Mr. Gould reported , and Colonel Paget , the prince of Wales' icpresentntlve on board Vigilant , agreed with him , that Vigilant struck a rock off the Needles , and this carried her centerboard - board entirely away. It Is probable that Vigilant will be unable to race for some time to come , unless'the centcrboard Is re- coveied and leplaced- shorter time than Is now believed possible. The reprebcntattve fit the Associated press had an interview with Colonel Paget when Vigilant arrived here1.1 after the declaration that there would' be no race. He said that when Vigilant got Inside the Needles he felt the bump twice tm Goose rock , and it was felt that something was wiong. A rope was run under the keel and It was not met by the centerbourd , nnd It was clear the latter had been , carried away. The duke of York Immediately went on board Osborne-and &oon aUer George Gould also went aboard , of her. The latter explained the accident to nheprince of Wales , and added that notwithstanding the fact his boat hadl'nd' Oentorboard'Hfe'Tvus' ' ' willing td race her'ngalnst the Britannia , for the cup. The prince , who had been anxiously await ing nn explanation of the accident , appeared perfectly satisfied with what Mr. Gould told' him. He would not hear of Vlgllant's racing , handicapped ns she would be. When Osborne returned to Cowes the prince ex pressed to a guest his fears lest the matter might bo misrepresented In the newspapers to Mr. Gould's detriment. He then sent a message to the newspaper men and In formed them no blame attached to Mr. Gould. The message , by the prince's com mand. Intimated the true nature of thu acci dent. I-ONDON , Aug. 19. The Times says Cap tain Haft on Sunday night telegraphed from Southampton to Mr. Gould at Cowes , stating that he had discovered that the yacht's centerbonrd had not been displaced from Its fastenings and lost , but that it had been jammed from the trunk. The Times adds that some further explanation of the affair seems to bo required , when all the circumstances are taken Into consideration. Lord Wolvcrton hns withdrawn the cup ho offered to the winning yacht , nnd decided to send it to the Koynl Direset club to be raced for by the llrst yachts at Weymouth on Friday. IUS 11KITISI1 BLOOD IS AKOUSED. One Kngllfihiiiiin Who Does Not Henltiito or Doitcn In t'ritlrlrlng Vigilant. LONDON , Aug. 19. The Field gives prom inence to a violent letter against Vigilant , which IB said to be a true reflection of English comments heard on all sides , but which have not yet appeared In print. The writer of the letter says that International courtesy has been pverdone , especially ns In his view the courtesy Is not reciprocal. It Is asserted that 'America's cup was de fended by a "construction , " which In no way conformed to the British Ideas of n yacht , nnd that shifting ballast was used during the cup races. The letter then recounts certain alleged violations by Vigilant of the Urltlsh Yacht Haclng association's rules as to wooden bulkheads , fittings , etc. , and says Vigilant was not measured "until British patience was exhausted. " The writer asks If Vigilant Is to be al lowed to break every rule with "nn empty shell for a hull , which is ineligible to com pete with racing yachts , and with a crew of Norsemen and English sailors. " In con clusion , Vlgllant's critic remarks that Brit ishers boast In their national pride "of a British ship , not n machine , with British canvas and manned by lirltons.

The following reference from the Anaconda Standard Is made to a horseman well known In Ntbraska : "In spite of It being Sunday and the weather exceptionally fine , the turf men quartered at the Montana put In most of the day resting nnd talking over Satur day's races and the coming events. There was one subject that all the horsemen ap peared to agree upon , much as they might differ on the relative merits of their favorite horses , they all freely acclaim that the asso ciation did a splendid stroke of business In retaining the services of W. P. McNalr of Wichita , Kan. , as judge. He Is , In their opinion , a thorough horseman , and on Sat urday showed his metal In his successful efforts In getting the harness horses an even start. Those who patronize the pool boxes also have confidence In Mr. McNalr and that he will-not permit jobbing1 of any descrip tion ; and , further , that the rider or driver who can fool him will have to get up early In the morning. Stephen Hornet , writing In the Plitsbiirg Times , has the following In regard to the Cleveland meeting : "The Plttsbnrgers who attended the grand circuit races at Cleve land think that the wool was pulled over 'Pa' Edwards' eyes In the race which Moon stone won from Online. One of them says that Ed Geers told him before the race that Moonstone had not the remotest show of beating Online , for the reason that the most formidable horse Ilobert J had encountered this season was Online. There must have been something radically wrong with Online when , after this declaration , the betting com missioner of C. J. Hamlln , the owner of Moontsone , put In all of the three hours in which pools were sold on the iace hi buying the field at $10 for $25 on Online. The Pills- burgers further say that while Fendelton was doing this , the Hamllns , father and bon , were In constant conference with him. They took all of the money which went into the ring. C. J. doubtless got a pointer from the veterinarian who loo'.s after Onllne's health , that the son of Shadcland Onward had passed a poor night , and , wise man that ho Is , profited by It. Had President Edwards taken the driver of Online down when he called him to the stand It would have been to Httlo purpose , as eye witnesses declare that In the two heats ho won , Online was handled so that ho had to travel almost two and a half miles.

The market during the past week was as unsatisfactory as duilng the preceding week , This was owing to ovet whelming eft ilngB , which ren dered futile efforts to raise prices. At the close , however , there was n somewhat more conlldent tone , becnuse the stronger price of silver renders an Improvement In the eastern limits probable , nnd also because of the fact that spinners are about to com bine to reduce their production.
