THE OMAHA OMAHA MEETS FIRST DEFEAT Peoria Pirates Put a Crimp in tha Bonrke Team's Average, GAME THE BEST SEEN THIS SEASON Throaah an Error af Stewart's In the lsth the Visitors Raah la Two Rana and Win Oat. ueiore a crowd of 6.000 people the Omaha baseball team met its first reverse at the hands of the Peoria Pirates Sun any aiternoon by a acore of 2 to 1. In tho sixth Inning Captain Ace Stewart of th Rourke Rangers committed an error of Judgment that cost the Rame, allowing Peoria both of Its tallica Despite the disappointing result the game was easily the best yet seen here on the present season's schedule. From the very beginning the result bung in the bal ance with the turning of a hair aufflclent to decide It, and the great assemblage which overran bleachers and grandstand ana nowed out onto the field by hundreds was in a state of excitement from Inning to inning. in tne nrat Inning Genlna scored for Omaha on hla own atnale. followed h Fleming's double. From that time the visitors fought to overcome the tally, but did not auccecd till the sixth. Then Stone hit safe aa first man up and Truby followed with a ground ball to Stewart. It waa alow, and Ace ran It up well into tbe dia mond. He waa then cloee to first base and could easily have caught Truby there, but some strange twist of his Instinct led blm to turn around and try for 8toae at second Dolan caught the ball, but It was too late and both men were safe Then did "Podge" Alloway gird up his loins and pitch baseball, and Lazotte and vaugnn went out In ahort order. Not ao Maloney. With a single already to his credit he hit the double that won the game. The next man up flew out Ronrke'a Men Serlona. More serious play than Omaha showed during tbe next four tunings was never seen. Every man who came to the bat quivered as he faced the twlrler and gnashed his teeth when he failed to do execution. So vital waa the situation that even Johnny Oondlng teased a double out of bla usually disappointing willow In the aeventh, but It availed naught. Pitcher Cox waa on hla mettle and proved equal to the occasion at every turn. Meanwhile Podge waa alao Invincible, and Peoria could not better ite lead, despite errors in the aeventh by Dolan aad Hlckey. To add to the climax rain threatened and huge dropa fell and the visitors exercised every creed of their craft to delay the game till It rained so hard that It would be neces sary to call it. But Pluvlua waa with Omaha, though he alone of all the gods showed the Rangers favor yesterday. He held off the rain and allowed the game to go on to the end Tbe ninth came, and Peoria was put out one, two, three. Dolan came to bat and made a single. Stewart sacrificed him to second. Hlckey batted him on to third. going out himself at first. Two out, with Oondlng due. Jack Thomae was' substl tuted, and tbe crowd waa fairly on ita knees In prjyer that he might repeat hia wonderful performance of the ninth Inning In the laat game with St. Joseph, when he batted for Oondlng and made a home run. Thomae Haa Stage Frlarht. But the responsibility of 5,000 heart aches and 260 points ot percentage In the league standing waa . too much for Jack, He took atage fright, and made fouls out of three balls, then striking out. Peoria showed a great ball team, and Cox la a pitcher. Alloway, too. deserves much praise. Neither team hit well, though Peoria batted when it waa needed, and Omaha did not. Stone, whom Rourke haa farmed to Peoria, waa a great favorite with the crowd, and Bill Wilson, tbe old Gate City catcher, was met at tha plate hla first time to bat with a huge bunch of roses from old admirers and frlenda. Maloney did wonderful hitting, batting two Ingles and a double-out ot three times up. Today Is ladles' day. Attendance, ,000. The acore: PEORIA. AB. R. H. 'O. A.

COST OF VESSEL TO BE CAREFULLY NOTED tntlrlpated that In Thla Manner Itel. alive Cheapness of Government and Contract Work Can Re Ascertained. (From a 8taft Correspondent ) WASHINGTON, April 27. (Special.) Chairman Foss of the house committee on nsvsl affairs, iu speaking of the action ot his committee authorizing the construction of one of the proposed new vessels in one of the government yards, said today: "It Is an open question as to whether or not It Is wise to build veseels In government navy yards. The general belief Is that money can be saved by giving such work out under contract. This belief la based upon the fact first, that government em ployes work eight hours a day, while those In outside yards are employed nine or ten hours. Second, the rate of wages for government labor Is relatively higher all along the line than outsiders rav. Third, the government allows Its employes two weeks vacation each every year with full pay, and in addition to thla there are six or seven public holidays during which employes do no work but are paid full wages Just the same. "I have made a personal investigation and quite an extensive one at that Into the methods prevailing among European gov ernments. I find that In England about one-half of the vessels now building for the royal navy are being constructed In private yards and the other half In yards belonging to the crown. As Dearly as 1 could ascertain the cost of construction is slightly lower In the private yards In Eng land than In those of tbe crown. During the recent visit of Prince Henry the chief constructor of the German navy called on me here and we bad a talk about this sub ject ot tbe relative cost ot private and public construction of vessels of war. The German admiral said that In spite of the fact that wage are lower In the govern ment yards than they are In the plants of private builders a great deal of money could be saved by giving out contracts to the private individuals and corporations. Yields to rnblle Demands. "We have decided," continued Mr. Foes, "to make the experiment because of the de mand from every section of 'he country where the government yards are located. The eecretary of the navy will be author ized to have a battleship or a cruiser built tn one of tbe government yarde. He Is In structed to keep an absolute account of every .dollar expended on this vessel so that by the time it Is finished congress will be In a position to Judge as to tbe advisability of building vessels in the public navy yards rather than through the contract system." Representative Hugh Dinsmore of Ar kansas has won out in the primaries and is sure of another term In congress. Mr. Dins more Is a man who Is moat cordially liked. His .friends stretch from one side of the bouse to the other and it Is doubtful if there i another man tn congress In whose suc cess In bis primary campaign so many of his associates were eo sincerely Interested. Mr. Dinsmore has served In the diplomatic corps and haa had a military training. He Is a member of the Army and Navy club and Is, besides, one of the regents of the Smith sonian Institution. These latter facts were used by bis opponents in an attempt to de feat him. A statement was made on the stump something like this: "Dinsmore Is a member of tbe Army snd Navy club In Wsehtngton. ' That club Is composed of men who are heroes la war and loafera In peace. He Is also a member of the Board of Re gents of the Smithsonian Institution. That organization is one of the swell social clubs or waemngton. Its members are all dudes. Do you want to be represented by ouch a renow as this?" But Dinsmore won out In spite of the fact that be remained In Wash ington Instead of proceeding to bis borne ta rerute these peculiar charges.
