Camp Sounders Is In the game sloppy con
dition nfl It was yesterday , with the cold
rain still falling. Tbo boys are standing
the hardships with very little grumbling ,
floncrnl Dills made a personal Inspection
of the camp this forenoon , nnd found all
the companies In good shape , considering
the weather. The number of men In the
hospltnl has not increased over yesterday ,
most of the crises being bad colds.
Three men have met with nccldcnta that
Incapacitate them from further service as
soldiers. Crclghton Dettlmore , company

accidentally amputated the forefinger of his
right hand ; Jacob Dowhower , company Def
of the Second , sustained a rupture whllo
scuffling with a comrade ; Oliver Falrchlld ,
company A of the Second , has a badly
sprained ankle.
The mustering In of the men has not yet
been taken up. The delay has been caused
by the failure of some of the examining
surgeons to appear for their own examina
tions. They are all on hand now , how
ever , nnd the commissioned officers are be
ing given their physlclal examinations to
day.

CHARLES II. WILSON.
First Lieutenant. Second Infantry , Acting
Assistant Adjutant General. +
Governor lloleonilt' * AililrenH.
Ono copy of the governor's address was
furnished to the commander of each com
pany , and the reading took place as di
rected In the order. The address was as
follows :
National Guardsmen of Nebraska : I de
sire to express to you my hearty apprecia
tion of your ready and willing response to
the call to duty. The spirit of patriotic
zeal and loyalty to country evinced by your
prompt action Is most commendable anil
challenges the admiration and approbation
of your fellow citizens. Nebraska lias just
cause to be proud of her citizen soldiery.
A crisis In the International afTnlrtt of our
nation has necessitated a call to arms for
the maintenance of national honor and In
tegrity. Our government has heard the call
of the unhappy Cubans struggling for civil
nnd political freedom ; has hearkened to the
cry of distress from thousands of women
and children perishing la misery and star
vation.
The president has called for 125,000 volun
teer soldiers , apportioned among the states
of the union according to population , to
eorvo in the army for two years , unless
sooner discharged. Nebraska's quota Is
two regiments of Infantry , and the presi
dent has expressed preference for the Na
tlontxl Guard of the state. In pursuance
of the president's proclamation , the twc
regiments of the Nebraska National Guard
tiavo been mobilized at Camp Alvln Saun-
ders. The government Is now ready to
im-ster Into the United States volunteer
army service , the troops allotted to Ne
braska , and you will soon cease to bo guards
men of Nebraska and become soldiers of
the nation.
Btny in Lincoln Help * Them.
. Your short stay here In camp life , drll
and preparatory Instructions will doubtless
Drove of much benefit to you in entering
upon the duties of active soldiers , and the
patriotic citizens of this state will share
with me the expression of pleasure In be-
in ; < permitted to assist In a small degree
in the preparation necessary to flt you for
the grave and responsible duties you maybe
bo called upon to perform when you have
entered upon your now soldier life.
It Is a voluntary act upon your part , as
the words Imply , when you become a soldier
In the Nebraska volunteers. Thousands arc
clamoring for permission to take up arms
and you of all Nebraskans are chosen because -
cause your service In the National Quart
baa rendered you best qualified for the serv
ice. This will afford au opportunity for you
to do your part In demonstrating again th
wisdom of our government's policy , main
talned since Its formation , of keeping only
n small standing army in times of peace
relying In times of necessity llko this upoi
tbo citizen soldiery of the land to furnlsl
a greater army to protect the flag from ul
threatened dangers.
I have no doubt whatever but your ready
response , your valor and your patrlotlsn
will further confirm the now settled con
vlctlon of the people of this country tha
tire re are no better , braver or truer soldier
than the great body of patriotic , Intelll
gent and courageous citizens , ready nt al
tlmea to take up arms In defense of lib
erty and country. It Is provided In sectlo
C. of the act of congress , approved Aprl
22. 1898 , to temporarily Increase the mllttar
establishment of the United States in tlm
of war.
"That when the members of any troop
battery , battalion or regiment of the organized
izod militia of any ctato shall en
list in the volunteer army In
body as such company , troop , battery
battalion or regiment , the regimental com
puny , troop , battery and battalion officer
in service with the militia organlzatio
thus enlisting may bo appointed by the gov
ernors of the state and territories , and shal
when so appointed bo officers of correspond
Ing grades In the same organization when I
Khali have been received Into the service o
the United States as a part of the voluntcc
army. "
It Is my earnest and well known deslr
that tha two regiments of Infantry of th
Nebraska National Guard shall malntr.l
their present company and regimental or
rantzntlons when accepted Into the volun
tcer army , and so far as my efforts mi
avail I shall strive diligently to secure till
much desired end. neither sanctioning no
fiticouraglng any change except where lega
obstacles may appear , or the public goo
and the efficiency of the organization .scorn
to clearly require It.
Motive * of Pare I'n < riot lira.
In the war now existing between th
United States and the kingdom of Spain
the people of this government are actuate <
from motives of lofty patriotism and broai
humanltarlanlsm. It Ifc solemnly declare <
by the people's representatives that thl
Is not a war of conquest , or for the acqul
Bltlon of territory , but a conflict to prevcn
a continuance of Spanish tyranny , mlsrul
and oppression on the Island of Cuba , am
to put an end to the suffering , starvatlo
and death of countless thousands of our un
foituuato neighbors. There ought to bo an
cau bo but one conclusion when a natlo
Is enguged In a cause so righteous , and tha
Is final and triumphant victory.
Wo hope and pray that under the provi
donee of God the day may speedily com
when final and lasting peace shall again
spread its wlnga over our fair land , and
with the consciousness of victory won In a
good cause and duty faithfully performed.

DENIES A MOTION OF BROATCH
Supreme Court IteVtiJeii to Enter n
Judgment of diiiiifer Airnlnut
Mayor Moore * .
LINCOLN , May G. fp clal Telegram. )
The attorneys for Droatch In the Droatch-
Moorca case , appeared , -before the supreme
court this morning aridi-flted a motion ask
ing for a Judgment of. ueter against Frank
E. Moorcs on the findings of the referee ,
and also asked that the cdurt fix the amount
of the referee's fees. Attorney Wharton for
Moores had accepted tboijiotlce and added
a protest against , theu matter being taken
up at this sitting , pocarlng before the
court he argued tha } ft $ was entitled to
the statutory time In which to file excep
tions to the report .of the referee. The
Droatch attorneys wanted' the matter taken
up at once. They thought It ought to be s
finally decided so that the change In the
.
mayor's office could take place before the
opening of. the exposition , and that Whar
ton ought to bo compelled to file his ex .
ceptions so that the final hearing could bo
had next sitting. In reply Wharton argued ; 1
that he was entitled to twenty days In
which to examine the referee's decision and
file his exceptions and brief. Ho had not
even had the required three days notice of
the filing of the pending motion.
At noon the court announced that the no
tice given Moores' attorney of the motion
was not sufficient and the matter goes over
to the next sitting , Moores' attorney being
notified that bis exceptions and objections
must b filed by that time.
Al MAUCK'S ' LATEST EFFORT

Twenty-One III In for n Totnl of
Twenty-Six Ilnur * . Three Itniici
on HnlU mill Ten Errora
Tell the Story.
ST. PAUL , May G. ( Special Telegram. )
The Saints made n killing today. Mauck , n
graduate of the Western Association , was In
the box for Omaha , nnd he was hit safely
twenty-one times for twenty-six bases. He
got a very bad start. In the first Inning ho
showed a lot of Ues Molncs curves which
missed the plate by a foot or two and was
charged with four bases on balls In suc
cession. A hit had preceded the passes , and
two moro hits followed , BO that the game
was practically won before the Omalms over
got n chance. After that ho put them over
and the Saints straightened them out. In
no Inning did they fall to get n lilt and there
was a grcnt fattening of batting averages.
Shugart made the first home run of the sea
son nt Lexington Park , repeating n similar
performance of last year. Phylo pitched
three Innings for St. Paul and then gave
way to Carney. Phylc was only hit once , but
both Glenalvln's errors wcro made In the
second aild there wcro three bases on balls
In the third , so that Phylo got out without
any runs by sheer good luck. Carney was
reasonably steady and very effective. The
four Omaha runs were duo to Shugart's
crior. It filled the bases after two were out ,
nnd Durnett'a two bagger nnd McCauley'fl
single followed. This Omaha team went nil
to pieces. McCmiley's tin owing was very
bad and the Saints ran bases at will , accu
mulating nine steals. Carney fielded his
position beautifully and llolllngsworth ac
cepted ten chances. Score :

1't'OS AND WHESTI.EHS MEET.
Aimnlelottn Opening for the Boiith
O in aim Athletic AHiioelntlon.
The South Omnhn Athletic association
nst night opened tip very nusplclously. A
ilcc little program was pulled off despite
the fact that the main event of the evening ,
a go between George Kcrwln of Chlcngo ami
Billy Lambert of Davenport , bail to bo
called off on account of the Intter's noiinti-
pcnrancc. The management squared llio
uulleiice , which numbered very nearly 700 ,
y announcltiK that nny one who was ills-
sntlstled with the program as rendered
coiilil secure a ticket for the next cnler-
nlnmcnt by applying or communicating
vllh the president.
The preliminary bout wns between Fred
O'Neill of this city and Jim Hart of DPS
Molncs , anil was an easy thing for the
former. After a llttlo flildllng O'Neill went
iftcr his man anil had him on the Moor lie-
ore the round was over. In the pci'ond
round he followed lip his advantage anil a
veil directed blow on the Jaw brought Hart
' : o Ills knee In n minute. The latter wns np-
mrently outi'lnsseil and the bout was given
to O'Neill. Hart only lilt O'Neill twice.
The Clmlfon brothers wcro In O'Neill's
'orner ' anil Jim Ford nnd Jim Adams were
ilart's seconds. Homer Kirk wns referee
nnd Patsy Fallen timekeeper.
A corking wrestling match between Ru
dolf Havclka of this rlty anil Fretl Smith
of Polornilo followed. The local man agreed
to seeure three falls Inside of thirty minutes
and won handily. He hail Smith on his
|
shoulders for the llrst down In two minutes
nnd forty-five siconds by means of a half
Nelson ; secured the second fall in six min
utes anil eleven seconds through sheer
strength , and a hnmmerlock won him the
third fall In live minutes anil forty seconds.
Smith was wiry and quick , but was no
nmtch for the Omaha man. Hnvclkn wns
Klvcn the decision , having made the three
falls In fourteen minutes anil thirty-six sec
onds.
The final event , a twelve-round bout bc-
h\een Jim Adams of PlttuburK nnd Frank
Crozler of Columbus , wns alone worth the
[ irico of admission. Both men wcro In good
trim. For the first part of the llrst round
lumors were even , but after a minute's rat-
tltnK peed lighting Ailams commenced to
force matters. He Inndeil several times on
Ciozlor's wlnil , anil Just before the round
closed brought both bands on his opponent's
month In meetliiK a rush. This angered
Crozler , nnd In the second round ho went nt
Adams In n hammer-and-tongs manner , re-
cclvlng ns n rewnnl hard Jabs In the Jaw
nnd ribs. The bout wns going Adams' way
easily , but Crozler commenced to foul nnd
on that ground the decision wns awarded
Ailnins. Adams looked to weigh nrontul ICO
ut least , while Crozler wns several pound *
lighter. Billy Lambert anil Jim Clmlfon
looked after Adams' Interests , whllo Fred
O'Neill and Jim Chnlfon were back of
Crozler. Patsy Fallen rofereed.
At the conclusion of the program Clmlfon
nnd AdaniH called off the match they hail
mailc , but promised to draw up new articles
of agreement for a meeting In the near fu
ture.
