The splendid rainfall In the morning made
nn almost perfect field for ball playing at
the Charles Street park yesterday afternoon
and a mnBiilllcent crowd turned out to wit
ness the Uourkc family toy with the St.
Joes.
It was Freddy Clausen's debut on Hie
home grounds , and there was much specula
tion In the grand stand before piny waa called
as to wlinl the result would be. Well , sir ,
tlie old Coliitnbuster just garnered laurel
leaves until he had enough to make a wreath
that would go around The llec building , and
the unanimous verdict was thnt he will do ,
Had ho been well supported he would have
won Just as easy as tfic erysipelas , for out
of the eight tallies Tubby Welch took unto
his big , ( at bosom , only one wa ? earned ,
Frederlcluis mowed down the doughty Apostles
tles whenever lie felt Ilko giving that good ,
right flit of Ms tlie necesasry kink , like so
many mullein stalks before the gale.
To be sure , lie was hit pretty oltcn , but.
with the exception of one Inning , this al
ways happened after chances had been
offered lo retire the side. On the other
hand , notwithstanding he did his very best ,
Young Mr. Johnson was batted hard and
often.
Just before the game opened up Hugh Nlcol
who Is now holding tlie reins over Hit Saints ,
said ! "Jolmsoiv'K my crack pitcher. " but at
Its close he modulated this statement by
saying that he meant his cracked pitcher.
Generally , when Onialia needed a hit , she
Just reached out and picked It off like you
would a ripe pomegranate or a banana , lint
don't you believe that It wasn't an exciting
game , after all , and , notwithstanding. It
should have been easy. It took tlie llourles ;
ten Innings to clinch it.
HRllB'S WHERE WR WON IT.
Grasshopper Ulrica , as usual , was the
first man to face Mr. Johnslng. He had tils
eyes freshly cleaned up tn the morning and
the second ball pitched he straightened out
along the left Held line like a streak ot chalk.
Then before Mr. Nlcol , Mr. Johnson or Mr.
Welch csnlil realise It , the Hourkes had piled
up six big oleugcnous runs , pastellea , every
one of them.
Lily Lnngsford laced one up against the
palisades for a pair of sacks. Colonel Kllng-
stone muffed Willie Hill Moron's fly big
McVcy smashed her over the fence , a rand pa
Seory accepted a pass , and Fear nnd
Fredericks both lilt safe. This bit of fancy
wark , linked to a wild pitch or two , was
the cause of the half dozen raw above
alluded to.
Nice , wasn't It ?
Ill their half , the Apostolic gang g-.t one
of these back. Kid Mohter hit safe , a wild
pitch shoved him on to second , Preston's
out to third and through a lunkhead play by
the dapper Mr. Fear , he was enabled to ship
Ills valisoa on tlif plate. That w.\s oil.
In tlie second McVcy wns slammed out at
fltst by Preston , then Secry made a hit
nnBtole second , but here his Journey ended ,
as both McCann and Old Hutch flew out to
Kllng.
We had a big * care In the second , but that
was about all , for they only got one more
pearly little tally.
Cole led oft with a smash for two bags ,
then after Holly had been erased at first
Colonel Jolms'nB reached first on an error ,
while Cole gayly romped home.
It looked as If they were In for a gob of
ram. But how many times have 1 told you
there Is nothing In looks. You know the
old adage about an onion smelling just as
deleclably If you call It a rose. Well , that's
the point I tin trying to make.
The crowd all hsld their breath as Moliler ,
the boy from Japan , waddled to the plate.
Rang ! *
That was a wicked slash by the Kid atone
ono of Freddy's choicest convolutions.
Then 0110 of th'sc Indolent drops of his
came moping along , and the Kid snide U
with prodigious power. It went way out over
left like a swallow on the wing , and Mr.
Johnslng and everybody else thought It waa
over the fence. But U wasn't. Running
swiftly back to tlie fence , Grandpa Seory
leapad up Into the air about eleven or thir
teen feet end tcro the lights out ol th
flying sphere. It was so hot It singed his
hapd , and by a lightning throw he cot It
back across the lot to McVey.
And the people all cried aloud In their ex-
Qululto joy.
AND HKhE'S WHERE TROUBLE CAMR.
Well , things went along In this style until
thfl lilnth , wlien the score stood 8 lor Pa
and for Tubby Welch. It looked like a
double rlvi'U'd cinch. But you kn&w what
base ball is.
Moliler was again the first man up and
he swatted out a nice , clean single. Then ,
after Preston had ripped three gaping rents
In the air Marcum and Welch lilt safe and
the tags were full.
That was bad , ami Colonel Clausen grow
fomewhat Indorencent about the gills , and
more so when Ulrlch let Kline's grounder
get through , and redder yet when Works
whaled out a single and Cole a two-bagger ,
four run * getting tn and tying the sc"re.
There was much quietude and soreness In
the Ri-r.i ! stand , but the tenth Inning evened
matters up nicely , and of coursa the victory
Was a Rri-al one.
Ulrlch got liU base on balls , again exempli
fying the old adage that everything conies to
ft man who waits. Lingsford died at llrst ,
but Billy Morau got In a picturesque lick
Hid Preston permitted McVey's grounder to
* ! lp by him. Then Seery ami McCann
lammed out a couple of butes and Fear his
tecond two-Backer , and the day was ours.
This bit of artistic hitting netted another
Quartet ,
The Saints tried hard In their half , but

lloldK Out SlroiiK In Illlclclt ,
The great race In the Western association
continues with unabated Interest , notwith
standing the fact that Hock Island seems
to be clinching lu-r hold on first place. As
the clubs stand this morning : Omaha , Is
but forty-two points behind the leaders ,
with five games less won and four more
lost. This Is but a narrow margin nnd will
require but a tf\v paines the right way to
wlpu It out. Omaha has nineteen games yet
to play , nnd considering the standard of
the pitchers now with the team , Whltehlll ,
Abbey and Clausen , and judging by the
article of ball they have been playing dur
ing the last week , notwithstanding reverses
at Lincoln , we mwy yet bs able to end the
season lu accordance with the manage
ment's orlalnal war cry of "third or
better. " That the rnce still continues the
closest and most exciting In the country Is
attested by thu fact that fifty-two points
yet cover the six" leading clubs. This
afternoon the Omahas meet the St. Josephs
at the Charles Street park nnd a battle
royal may be sangulnely anticipated.
Tuesday Ituckerlno ICbrlght will be on hand
with his brawny agriculturists for three
games , and of course we want all five of
those games. Thursday evening the team
goes lo Des Molnes for three games , thence
to IVorla , Jacksonville , Qulncy ! and Hock
Island for three each , the three at the
latter place ending what has been certainly
a most wonderfully prosperous and suc
cessful season.
Omaha and St. Joe will play but one
game today , Efforts to Induce Manager
Nlcol to transfer the postponed Saturday
game to Omaha were fruitless , and that
game will probably never be played. With
Abbey [ ( gainst Kllng this afternoon the
battle should be a warm one. It will be
called promptly at 3:30 : , and the teams
will be :

Questions and Answers.
SIDNEY. la. , Aug. 20. To the Sporting
Editor of The Bee : I would like to ask
your opinion of a decision that was made
In n game of ball Monday. There was one
out , a base runner on second Irnse ; the
batsman makes three strikes and runs to
first ( the catcher falling to hold the third
strike ) ; the catcher throws the ball to
first and the batsman Is out , but In trying
to avoid the llrst baseman the batsman
falls In such a manner that It looked like
he did It Intentionally , Now. could the
umpire call the man out that ruhfi from
second to third , the baseman claiming that
the man ran Into him purposely to hlncler
him from throwing to third base to catch
the baseman running from second to third.
The umpire called the man out , and I claim
It Isn't right. Please let me hear from
you In regard to It. F. B. Jenkins.

NEW YOISK , Sept , 2.-Henry Clews , header
or the banking flrm of Henry Clews & Co. ,
writes of the situation In Wall street :
"As might luivo been expected , the Walt-
street markets have during the past weelc
shown u partial ronctlon from the nilviince
nntl the activity Immediately following the
FcUlcment of the tariff question , It wan
natural that tin advance , after such a lone
period of duUno ? ? , rliouttt lie followed by
sales to realize pro 111 ? . A luxury so lonn
out of reach was seized with prompt avid
ity , anil the consequent decline In prices
hus been encournRcil by 'benr' wales. One
fact , however , deserves to be noted as a
symptom of the market. The realizing has
been mostly by the smaller class of op
erators , who had bought for a 'turn' upon
the prospect of the passage of the tariff
bill. The large holders , who have been
carrying1 bltf lines of stocks , bought around
panic times nnd held ever since , have as
yet sold very few storks. They appear to
lie of the opinion that the leal advance Is
not lo be expected upon the transient sensa
tional effect of the first settlement of this
question , but upon later effects , artslnff
from the outworislngs of the reniljtiHtments
and the general expansion of business. The
starting up of manufacturing and mer-
chanting now apparent on every hand IB ,
with them , a reason for expecting n per
manent revival of conlldcnce. an Increase
In the earnings of the railroads nnd Im
proving dividends upon corporate capital
generally. That the capitalist holders con
sider to be the true time for realizing , anil ,
with money still abundant nnd cheap , they
see no reason for parting with pioperty
which n few weeks or months hence Is
Ilkelv to be worth much more than II
would bring upon large sales today. An
other motive Influencing this class to cling
to their holdings Is the fact that , owing to
the large amount of stock held stagnant
through receiverships , this Is , and for some
time must remain , n comparatively narrow
market , not best calculated to draw Into
Wall street n large outside Interest. The
practical significance of this factor Is that
until a considerably higher range of prices
Is reached the market Is likely to be sus
tained by comparatively light offerings of
stocks and by the countenance of a verj'
Influential class of holders.
"The crop reports show Improving pros
pects for the railroads. The latest estimates
Indicate n probability of fully MO.OOO.COO
bushels of wheat. Up to the 20th of August
the crop of corn was estimated at about
l.COO.OOO.OOO bushels , but later weather con
ditions have encouraged the hope that the
yield may prove to be close upon nn av
erage. So far as respects transportation
Interests , the Increase In wheat , amounting1
to something near 100.000,000 bushels , will
probably quite offset any possible falling off
In corn , for , relatively , a smaller portion
of the corn crop than of the wheat crop Is
subject to long hauls , and the large In
crease In the latter crop will have to travel
from east to west fop export. It therefore
would not be surprising if the earnings of
the railroads out of this year's crops quite
equal those of average years. So far as
the crops affect the forming Interest nnd
Its ability to purchase supplies at the east ,
the chances are much better than they
were earlier In the seafcon. If the price of
wheat Is low , yet Its yield Is now estimated
at 25 per cent greater than last year's , and
for any reduction of say 10 per cent In the
crop of corn there IP. at present , the com
pensation of an advance over last .year's
prices of the same data of fully 30 per cent.
Thi > farmers' prospects may therefore be
reckoned as fully up to the average of late
years , which , after nil'did not prevent the
agricultural sections from suffering much
less than any other under the trials of
last year.
"The rcp"arls' 'dnv the. world'ytrops' 'made
at the Vienna fair are here generally re
garded as materially underestimating the
probable output. The opinion gains ground
that the aggregate supply of wheat from all
sources will turn out to be the largest In
the world's history. Should this prove to
be the case , It will afford a valuable help
towards the abatement of political discon
tent nnd the recovery of depressed Industry
among the European nations. In Enclami ,
Germany , France , Helglum , etc. , the re
covery of trade comes slowly. Large ex
pectations ( In Knglaml especially ) have been
built upon the adoption of a lower tariff In
this country. It remains to be seen how
far the event will justify that hope , but It
will , at least for the present , lve a stim
ulus to Kuropcan Industries , and that may
possibly sulllce to. break up the prevailing
stagnancy and start old world commerce
upon a fresh era cf activity.
"The enactment of the new tariff has had
less effect upon the English market for our
securities than had been expected. Like
our own market , London had bought mod
erately on ( he prospect , nnd It sold
promptly on the advance. British Investors
have been so discouraged by the recent re
ceiverships of our great railroads that time
must ellipse and those events be forgotten
before London will become n considerable
buyer either for Investment or speculation ,
Here this Is expected , and the effect of this
loss of the usual London co-operation has
been already discounted and has no further
effect for ( lie New Y.ork market. "
As DUN SEES IT.
( linn 1m Still Him nn Excellent Standing
Among liuitcrn Ilnnliips * Men.
Sir. "W. II. Roberson , Omaha manager of
R. G. Dun & Co. , speaking of local trade ,
says :
"I returned from a vacation trip east on
Monday. During my absence and while In
New York City a number of the leading
credit men of the largest houses In this
country were Interviewed. It was gratify
ing to find that Omaha jobbers and retail
merchants were In most excellent stand
ing with these eastern people. Repre
sentatives of some of these great houses.
In speaking of our local jobbers , named
a number whose paper they would cheer
fully take If they could get It at much
less than legal rates. It may be wortli
while to state that In all the conversations
held with the credit men above referred to ,
In which nearly every house of consequence
In Omaha was discussed , not one word was
dropped uncomplimentary to our people.
"Some Interest was manifested In the
political situation In Nebraska , and n good
many Inquiries were made as to whether
or not Nebraska would join Kansas and
Colorado with a populist governor. Not
being a politician and not being well In
formed , It was not possible for me to en
lighten them , but among conservative bus
iness men throughout this country there Is
considerable uneasiness with reference to
the strength of Hie populist movement , CH-
peclally In the west.
"The feeling among eastern manufac
turers and Jobbers was very encouraging.
All that I saw took the view that thP tariff
was settled , and that'as ' a result business
men could readjust themselves to the new
conditions nnd business could resume the
even tenor of Its way without delay. A
good many Instances were cited of n re
sumption of openuifllii In the factories , nnd
all perdlcted n very .early activity In com
mercial matters aH-nldng the line.
"Since my return I have had a conversa
tion with one of Hhe'/leadlng financiers of
Omaha , who is ndt > * ohopeful In his views.
On the contrary , he says that the tariff
question Is not settlelL nnd that on the re
convening of congress the same old agita
tion with referciic tfllhe monetary system
nnd the tariff i > 3TcyTsvlll ] be reopened. He
la disposed to dltcWmt everything that Is
said by eastern peciile- looking to a resump
tion of prcsperltyf''HI6 : idea Is that we can
count on from one-to two years more cf de
pression , more or les distressing , and can
probably wait flve.Sr'f.iVs for a return of the
old time activity Jit iblislness circles.
"In visiting tna.tr.iue locally few oC our
business men are .found In the dumps.
Omaha's trrile irns m > Ul Ua own remark
ably , especially In jobbing lints , and all
agree that the Jobbers and manu
facturers of the city will enjoy
quite a fair business. Ihla full und winter ,
notwithstanding the destruction of the
crops In nearly nil our tributary territory.
Instead of larce bills to a few customer * ) ,
Kirmll b'.lls to a great many customers will
be the rule , and the aggregate will make
a very satisfactory thowlng at the end of
the year. The following brief statements
of facts bear out this theory :
"One of our largest groctry houses has
sold twenty-four cars of canned poods since
July 20 , and sold 140 half chests uf lea In a
Hlngle order. This firm cold 10,000 half
chests of tea In 1MW. und will exceed this
number for 1H > I.
"One of our large dry goods IIOUFPM re
ports an Increase of to per cent on July bus
iness ov r July for a year ago , mul the
trade for August wan doubled. Chicago
customers now buying In Oinahu arc re-
tponslble for this ,
"One cf our leading ehoq houses reports
$42,000 more In orders for August , 1SDI , than
for August , 1SS3. Another one rtixjrta from
15 per cent to 'M per cent Increase In Bales
for the llrst seven months of UH , as com
pared with the eame months of 1K93.
"One of our manufacturing establishments
ho * been pushing Its trade In western Town
lately , and now reports ir > ; ts enough all und
to beep lie entile Ii.--c busy for thirty
days. August proves tlie laigcst month or
the year for this Hrm.
"One of tinmemberN of A young whole
sale house here , which eommenrnd n few
years ago with light rnplliil , Infoimrd a
confidential friend within the week that h's '
firm had netted ftO.W lu Its business within
the year ,
"Another wholesaler In n special line ,
supplying small Ocnlera throughout the
country , state * that It Is simply u questirm
of getting good men with them. Thc-y can
sell nil the goods their cnpltnl will allow
and not mure than half try.
"Taking everything Into consideration the
Jobbing trade Is extremely complacent ,
though some of the less hopeful outs are
somewhat apprehensive Unit the short clop
will prove n great drawlm-k to trade.
"The demand for money locally Is very
light. One of the best banks In Omahu
loaned n customer the other day $10.000 at
G per cent. This Is a new departure -which
Is probably n straw showing which way
the wind Is blowing In this commercial c li
ter. It has frequently been remarked that
Omaha mcrrhanlH were obliged to p.iy too
high rates for bank accommodations , and
this probably explains why many of them
carry a part of their money In eastern
banks nnd borrow heavily at 4 per cent
and G per cent from eastern financial In
stitutions.
"Senator Pnddock , Inn conversation held
this week , expresses very positive views UK to
the value of leal estate. HP holds that there
Is nothing equal to real estate for u perma
nent Investment , even at present prices ,
and In the face of present conditions , lu
his discussion of the matter he cited Iho
fact that real estate activity marks certain
cycles In a century , and that an examina
tion of the history of speculation for fifty
years In this country will show that In
vestors have turned to real estate at regular
Intervals. As the senator Is a large prop
erty owner In this city und has made con
siderable money by adhering to his theory
In times past , his suggestion Is entitled to
consideration.
"Hon. AV. O. Whitmore was In my oftlce
the other day , and lu a brief discussion of
conditions opened my eyes to several fat-Is
which 1 think will be Interesting to readers
of this trade review. Whitmore Ilros. have
done an average business of | 70wj a year
In grain , stock and hay for the lust llvo
years. Their losses for the whole period
have been but { 200 , showing that farmers
and grain dealers should utilize the facil
ities afforded them by the mercantile
agencies for Inquiring into credits. These
brothers have 4tXX , ) acres of corn on their
land this year , which will yield forty
bushels per acre In spite of drouth , nnd lie-
worth , CO , 70 , or perhaps M ) cents per bushel.
Mr. Whitmore says thcr are sixty-live
acres of beets sugar In Valley precinct \vhlcii
will be n profitable yield. Ho grows quite
enthusiastic over the sugar beet production ,
and saj'S In years like this the boots are
worth more for feed than for sugar. As
Illustrating how they stand the drouth , he
stated that out of curiosity he dug down to
the roots and tendrils of a sugar beet , fol
lowing It In all its nullifications to the end
of Its tendrils , and found that this tuber
extended its tendrils to a depth of seven
feet and diew moisture from the subsoil ,
which In the 1'latte bottom Is entirely relia
ble.
ble."We have had one bad failure this week ,
being the retail boot and shoe house of M
II. Cook & Son , on old and well established
retail store which has usually done a good
high class business. This Is the llrst failure
of any consequence In Omaha foi many
months , and the first shoe failure Hint has
occurred here for six months.
"At South Omaha cattle receipts have
been larger than last week , and prices , m
hogs have gone up , but good hogs are be
coming scarce. Packing house products uro
In good demand , and the general effects of
the strike are rapidly wearing off.
"Last August there were seventy f.illuies
In Nebraska , and seven In Omaha and
South Omaha. In the month Just passed
the failures aggregate but twenty-Kcven ,
and In the city but one. "

MANCHESTER , Sept. 2. During the

than for some time. 1'rlces , however , were
still near the lowest point , nnd especially
for law China , cloths and beat shirtings.
The home trade showed Improvement with

with greater freedom. Moderate orders
were taken for South America and ICgypt.

BOSTON" , Sept. 2. The American Wool
and Cotton Ileporter says of the wool mar
ket ! Domestic wools have been rather quiet
since the 21st , particularly while Hearing the
close from Thursday to Monday , the ma
jority waiting to see what the Una ! action
on the tariff was to be. the chief feature
being the purchase of 1,500,000 pounds of
Montana by a manufacturer belonging to
the class referred to last week , "who come
In any time regardless of any speculative
Influence not being forced In by any ad
vance. " There has been considerably less
demand for fleeces , and a alight easing up
In the views of holders of territorial wool ;
still , It has been , on the whole , a fair weU
for trade , and wools In general have been
sold at as high a price as at any time dur
ing the month ; medium wools nre especially
firm. On August ffi the suspense In which the
trade has labored being at an end , they
saw their way clearer as to what to do and
what to expect. The feeling In general Is
hopeful. The sales of fleeces consist
mainly of medium and low medium un
washed wools at 15frlSc. of which several
hundred thousand pounds were taken. Texas
wool was In some demand. There were
sales of "short" at lie , of eight months' ut
12c , and a fair-sized lot of twelve months'
at 10&12C' for average , and 12-3110 for choice.
Oregon wool was In fair request at current
quotations. In addition to the sales of
1,500,00 Ibs. of Montana , there were several
moderate sized lots of territory disposed
of , amounting , all told , to over 5,000.000 Ibs. :
this Included some Wyoming and Idaho at
ISfillc. and miscellaneous lots of various
territorial wools ranging In price from 10&
< fi > 14'Ac. We quote medium scoured , 30ii32c ;
line medium , 3IJ)3Sc ) : line. J7 < 538p ; defective
California , scoured , SSfjIIOc ; line , K OUTc. per
haps somewhat higher for choice. Every
thing on the list of pulled wool is In steady
demand at current quotations. Quite a
business up to Saturday waa done In our
market in Australian wool on the basis of
401/140 ( In bond ) , scoured. These prices
cover both combing nnd clothing wools ,
which the sales of the week included. The
sales of the week amounted to 3,48,000 ( Ibs.
domestic , nnd 33(1,000 ( Ibs , foreign , making n
total of 3'J8I,000 Ibs. , against a total of
2,379.000 Ibs. for the previous week , nnd a
total of 1.012,000 Ibs. for the corresponding
week last year. The sales wince January

LONDON , Sept. 2. Moncy rates during
the Wek ( were a shade easier. It Is not
expected that thuy will strengthen for
some time. The enormous stock of gold
held by the Bonk of Unulnml shows n glut
of availably resources. The opinion of the
best authorities now , however , favors a
turn In the tide of business ere long , which
will absorb those unprecedented accumula
tions. One of the leading factors Is the
settlement of the American tariff question ,
which promises to have nn Immediate effect
on International trade. Husineys continues
to expand and the strength of the market
Is well maintained. Naturally this Is gieatly
due to cheap money. All gilt edge stocks
stand almost at prohibitive prices and second
end and third rate securities are consequently
quently profiting thereby. Theie has been

kets. Home railway Hecurltles were utrong

NEW YORK , Sept. 2. Unsuccessful spec
ulation In Sugar by a junior 'partner ' was the
cause of the failure of the large knit goods
'
manufacturing house of S. llarron & Co , of
this city. The confession was made at a
meeting ol the firm's creditors by Theodore
Uarron , who places his loss at { 7,100. The
latter Is a son of the senior member of the
firm. For years S. llarron & Co. did n pros
perous business , and when an assignment
was made last month It was a surprise to the
trade. Counsel for the flrm eald today that
the assets were $122,132.(9 ( ; preferences ,
$41,000 ; nubilities , $185,000. , The flrm lias
hoped to pay .SSli per cent on the $1 , but
Instead submlt'tcd a proposition for 25 cents
on ttie $1. This basis of settlement did
not meet with tlio approval of the creditors.
Creditors examining tlio statement sheet
noticed an unexplained delicti ol $7.100 , and
asked for an explanation. Theodore 8. Barren -
ron was visibly agitated , und his face flushed
as lie said : "Gentlemen , I took that $7,100
unknown to my father , wlio Is the 'company'
In Theodore S. Barren & Co. I drew It
out In two checks , one for $4,000 , and the
