Indications Are that Wheeling Will b* Kestored to a Position on the Oih Ball Map To?dny, While Springfield Will Fade from View. At a late hour last night the Indication* -were that Wheeling would regain her former position on the base ball map, as a member of the Interstate league, and that Springfield would be the loser by the deal. For some time, Mr. W. B. Howell, proprietor of the Howell house, and noted far and near as a dyed-in-thewool fan, has been negotiating with the owners of the Springfield club 4n an endeavor to have the "Governors" transferred to this city. On ^onday, President Power, of the league, went over to Springfield and found the situation dark and gloomy. The Sprlngflelders were ready to give up, and as a result there was a voluminous telegraphic correspondence between Power and Howell yesterday. At noon, the Wheeling man thought the deal was a'oout to be closed, but an hour later he was surprised to receive a message from President Power, stating that the Springfield club owners wanted the Wheeling man to pay up back salaries of the players to July 15, amounting to $500. After consultation with several persons who are nflxlmm to mpp Whppllnir flrure benin In base ball. Mr. Howell wired back that he could not accept the terms as amended. He was expecting to receive a telegram last night, stating that the club would be brought here this week, but at midnight no word had been received. Last night the Intelligencer received a special dispatch from Springfield, to the effect that the transfer of the club to Wheeling had not been effected, but expressing the belief that the deal would be closed within twenty-four hours. Mr. Howell has made all arrangements for putting In tho team here. For some time he has had an option on the Island park, owned by the Wheeling Railway Company, which will be closed so soon as the club's coming to Wheeling is assured. It seems likely there will be games on the local grounds be tore the closo of the week. There Is no doubt but that the WheelIn? base ball public will welcome the reappearance of Inter-state ball In this city, and they are Indeed fortunate In securing so Rood a team as Springfield's, which Is now In second place aut] pressing Toledo hard for the lead. SOME SAIiOON MEN" Do Not Favor the Butchers' Plan to Secure Cheaper Ice! All the saloon men are not disposed to favor the co-operative scheme of butchers and saloonkeepers to secure cheaper Ice, by the plan detailed In yeffterday's Intelligencer. They argue that it would be better first to try to arrange a favor auie conirucb nua ino wncejinjf ice at Storage Company, or one of the other companies tn the Iocs! Ice exchange, before entering Into & two-year contract with the Knickerbocker, of Cleveland, as proponed by the butchers, who are taking the initiative in the fight for cheaper rates. The saloonkeepers' association up to last night had not been solicited by the butchers, who are working on Che saloonlsts as Individuals. The saloon men who argue against haste In closing a deal with a forelgnr company say they consider twenty-five 'cents per hundred a reasonable price, yet are anxious to do better, and think this can "be done by dealing with a local company If the effort Is made.

FANNINO'S LAST LECTURE WAS ON "AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP" AND TEEMED WITH PATRIOTIC SENTIMENT ? THE AltARMING EXTENT OF THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC POINTED Oui. MR. BURDICK'S ADDRESS LAST EVENING. Yesterday was the fifth flay of the Ohio Valley Prohibition Assembly and the exercises were attended by large audiences. The programme was followed to the letter and the ladles had very appreciative audiences at their meetings. For the afternoon, M. J. Fanning delivered his last lecture and It was very Interesting. He took for his subject, "American Citizenship." His talk was very patriotic and pleased everybody who was there. In beginning he spoke of the many patriotic people and his audience being made up largely of women. he hoped that some day they tvnnI/1 ha nprmlttpri in vote. The war. he said, would bring out a closer relation with our American people. The "Rebs" and "Yanks" are paw fighting under one flag and it If a wonderful thing. He told of the career of President James A. Garfield, how >e arostf from the bottom of the ladder. This waa very Interesting and very Instructive. This government is the first to fight for humanity and the act will go down in history. Our boys now in Cuba* will profit much by the experience of their forefathers, for they know how \<T handle the guns and will give a good account of themselves. The patriotic man will vote the truth always, and no matter what he says when he takes his ballot he votes as he feels. We spend seven times as much for drink as it would coat to purchase the island of Cuba. America wants freedom for the Cubans and the Prohibition party wants to free homes. Everywhere men are sacrificing their lives to serve this great cause and our temperance people are workflg to save people for God. There is said to be 600,000 habitual drunkards in this country and it is said that all the gold or sliver produced In one year would only pay the drink bill of this land for one hundred days. I Our statesmen talk about pauper labor coming to this country, but the saloon makes more paupers. Shut off the saloons and you will not have half the | population now in your penitentiaries, , but you will have more Christian people. Last night the tlilrd and last address was delivered by W. T. Bundlck. This noted temperance lecturer Is from Virginia, and the people at the assembly class him as one of the best lecturers of the day. This 1s his first year at the assembly. So good were his talks here that he has been engaged for next year at the assembly, and Rev. Mead will have him deliver a, number of leoturcs in New York state; To-day the programme Is as follows: Bible Reading and Song Service Mrs. W. A.
