VOL. VIII. A WILD NIGHT'S WORK. Detroit, Minn., the Scene of a Oold-Blooded Murder and Its Swift Following Punishment. The City Marshal Shot Dead in the Early Morning by a Notorious Local Desperado, And Before Midnight the Brutal Assassin Was Hanging From a Tree. The Body Filled "With Bullets— Scenes at tiie Storming of the Jail. Murder Followed by lynching. Special to the Globe. Detroit, Minn., June 23.— At 1 o'clock this morning the inhabitants of the prosper ous little city of Detroit were aroused by the cry of murder, and it was soon learned that the faithful chief of police, John Convey, had been shot down by a ruffian while performing his duty as an officer. Some difficulty bad arisen between John W. Kellibier, the murderer, and one Frank Bonnet, both representing houses of ill repute, and threats had been made. At the hour stated both men chanced to meet at the corner of the Masonic block and were having a contest of words when Officer Convey came up and requested them to desist and leave for home. The officer then started off a few paces, when Kellehier, better known as Reddy, pulled a revolver and shot Bennett, who dropped to the ground unhurt. The officer sprung toward Reddy only to meet his death by A BULLET TIIKOUII THE HEART. As soon as the two shots were fired those who had witnessed the affray from second story windows got to the scene as quickly as psssible. Alarms were given and men and teams were sent in every di rection in search of the murderer, and at 3:30 he was captured in a grave three-quar ters of a mile away by Johnny Boutell and James Foster, both of whom were un armed. He was immediately turned over to Sheriff Pinney and his deputies, who as quickly as possible, placed the prisoner in a steel cell. All day long the crowd though orderly has been crying for revenge. Large crowds have already ar rived from Perham, Frazee, Lake Park and Audubon, and all adjoining country towns, swelling the throng which at this hour is calling for a rope. THE MURDERED MAN came from Rochester, Minn., about four years ago, and was soon after elected chief of police, a position which he has filled most acceptedly and won the esteem of every one in the place. At 7:30 p. in. the tire bell began to ring, and the Lake Side band with muffled drum followed by the fire department in uniform soon marched to Masonic hall where the remains under charge of an undertaker were in keeping. The first six of the fire company were ac cepted as bearers and then with a dirge by the band the column marched to the depot with the remains which will leave for the deceased's old home at Rochester at 3:30. From early Jdusk the throng of people kept growing larger and small groups might be seen on every street corner and it was evident that Reddy, the murderer of John Convey, would not see the rising of another sun. By taking position on the front steps of the court house and looking down upon the street there was seen but A. BLACK MASS OF PEOPLE, yet there was no noise or confusion. At 10 o'clock the city fire bell began to ring rap idly and it was first thought a fire was rag ing, but it was quickly noticeable that at least 500 men, unmasked, » were marching toward the court house and at 10:05 a ring ing blow from a sledge descended upon the rear door of the court house, crushing the heavy panneled doors into pieces. Then there was a rush into the corridor, when' the mob was most forcibly met by Sheriff Finney and his deputy, George W. Taylor, who made a desperate light for their prisoner. But the corridor door was in the meantime crushed in and the sheriff was carried in bodily to the room next the jail apartments, where the keys to the outer doors were secured, and an en trance effected. Matches were lit and the gleaming eyes of THE WBETCH WITHIN were plainly visible as he walked to and fro with a face bleached to a death pallor. He begged for the crowd to shoot him in stead of putting that d — rope about his neck. At this time a cry arose from the mob that they did not have the right key to the cell, and a raid was again made on the sheriff and the cell keys de manded, but lie said he did not know where they were. Deputy Taylor was then caught in the hall and carried in. Owing to his resistance he was forced down and all the keys in his possession taken from him. The ones wanted being found, the great doors were pulled open and one of the party stepped into the cell and quickly placed an inch-rope about the victim's neck, and with a yell THE ROPE WAS GRABBED by about thirty men, who led the prisoner at a terrible gate out of the building, when a yell from 500 throats only frenzied the crowd the more, and with shrieks and cries the prisoner was taken to the front of his own place of abode, and in a twinkling one of the men grabbed the end of the rope and climbed the tree, placing the end over a limb and throwing it down to the crowd below, who quickly gave it a pull and in a few seconds the body of Reddy, the noted gambler and murderer, was hanging in the air. The rope was then fastened to the base of the large oak on which he hung, and instantly shot after shot from large revolv ers were fired into the then lifeless carcass. The crowd then dispersed, except those who went out to view the sight, which it is hoped Detroit may never have occasion to ■witness again. THE SENTIMENT «f the people here is that justice has been at last meted out to one of the most dan gerous characters that has ever visited the West. His coming to our midst has caused tbe death of one of Detroit's most highly respected citizens, whose - loss cannot.be restored. He was a man with few, if any, enemies, and his untimely death at the hands of such a monster has caused the (Treat excitement of to-day. John Convey was 27 years old, fine looking, of a spot less reputation, and was soon to be united in marriage to a lady in the town of Como rant. Reddy was 30 years of age, quite tall, with a freckled face, red hair and ■lustache and weighed 230 pounds. He claimed to have come fro m Brooklyn, N V., where he has parents living. FIRING THE BAGNIO. 1 8 a.m. — At this hour the large house near the lake, which has been used by prostitutes, is enveloped in flames, and no sffort is being made to save it. The furni ture was taken from the building, also < from the depot platform, put in a pile and Is also being consumed in a like manner. Detroit proposes to be forever freed from wch a class. SILLED HER IKADICER. ft. Texas Woman Shoots a Deputy Sheriff for Slander. Special to th* Globe. ■y Denton, Tex,, June 23. — At 2:45 o'clock yesterday afternoon five distinct pistol shots : were heard on the square. N. B. Roberts, r deputy sheriff, was sitting in front of Ball & Poe's livery stable, when Mrs. Gid Liles stepped up to him and said: "Mr. Roberts,; you have i traduced : me and I want you to retract, and if you don't you will be sorry C_Q s^gg* \q^£z^^!^^^ j for it." He answered that he could or j would not do it, whereupon she drew a ! revolver and shot him live times, every shot hitting him and three of them being fatal. i It is rumored on the streets that Roberts had openly stated that he had criminal intercourse with her, which she branded as a falsehood and several weeks ago went in company with her hus band to Roberts, asking him whether he had I really said so. He did not deny having said it at that time and the husband of the woman that killed him then ATTACKED HIM WITH A KNIFE, intending to kill him, but was prevented by bystanders. Since then the matter has been brewing and growing worse, and when the woman went to the stable to see him yesterday, it seems that she wanted him to sign papers to the effect that he bad told falsehoods and he was not willing to do this. Constable James Bill, who was on the way to the stable, was stopped by Gid Liles, the husband of the woman, while she was talking to her victim not over 100 yards distant, and when she had done the deed she calmly handed him the pistol and gave herself up. She was asked why she did it, and she an swered: "He traduced n:e and told lies about me, and no man can do that and live. 1 tried to hit him about the region of the I heart." She succeeded too effectually. The coroner's verdict was that N. B. Roberts came to his death by shots fired with a pis tol in the hands of Leona Liles. The pre liminary trial is set ",for next Wednesday. In the meantime she is allowed to be at home under guard. Acted in Sclf-Defeusc. New York, June 23.— the morning of the 10th inst., when the brig Mary C. Warner of Portland, Me., under command of Capt. X. P. Wharton, was at sea, bound for this port, a light occurred between the first mate, James i\ Lewis, and a sailor named Frank Yorkitcha. The litter stabbed Lewis in the neck, killing him almost in stantly. The man was at once put in irons and a strong guard kept over him until the arrival of the brig in this port this morning, when he was banded over to the harbor police. The remains of the mate were buried at sea. The accused was arraigned before United States Commissioner Shields, where he testified in his own behalf that the mate assaulted him first and after strik ing him on the bead with a wooden belay ing pin four times the pin broke and the mate then went for an iron one, seeing which defendant drew his knife and stabbed Lewis under the right ear, killing him instantly. Others of the seamen testi fied as to the cruel conduct of the mate, not only to the accused, but to all the crew. They said that the vessel was short handed, and that the accused acted with great forbearance under the provocation given and did not use the knife until he be lieved his life to be in dancer. The com missioner sent the accused before the grand jury, and that body immediately discharged him. : '-\~ ' Over 200 Poisoned. Philadelphia, June 23. — A special dispatch says: Exactly 214 people were poisoned at last Thursday's picnic near Flemington. N. J; Six of those persons will probably die, and twenty are in a pre carious condition. One of the physicians in charge of the cases has examined the ice cream cans and says there was not enough sulphate of zinc about them to do any dam age, that the symptoms are those of arsen ical poisoning and from the fact that those who first ate of the cream escaped, he is of the opinion that the poison was put into the cream by some one purposely. As a large number of persons were engaged in servins the cream it will be difficult to catch the perpetrators. Dead. Special to the Globe. York, Pa., June — John Hood, a desperate colored character residing here, came home drunk to-day and brutally abused his wife. He was beating her with a chair when Policeman George Powell, attracted by the woman's cries, came to hand and endeavored to arrest the negro. The latter turned on the officer, who drew his revol ver. A desperate hand to hand struggle ensued and the officer gaining the mastery over his assailant, shot him through the heart. Officer Powell gave himself up. They Mole a Yacht. '• , V,>- Milwatjkee, June 23. — The case against Charles Reed, John Maloney and Curtis Reed, who stole the yacht Mamie from Ke nosha while on a spree, and were over hauled by the revenue cutter Andy Johnson at Grand Haven, is exciting considerable at tention in court circles. As the punish ment for piracy is death, the district at torney wants to prosecute the prisoners under the state law for larceny, but the owner of the yacht objects, as he thinks the punishment for the latter crime is not severe enough. District Attorney Will iams has the case under consideration. Held for Trial. Boston, Mass., June 23. — William W. Carruth, ex-judge of the Newton police court, who was arrested in Washington, D. C, under an indictment charging him with the embezzlement of $S,OOO while acting as administrator of the estate of Julia P. Ward of Oakland, Cal., was arraigned this morning and pleaded not guilty. He was held for trial. MALTREATED ORPHANS. Cruelly Whipped and Tortured by Their Teacher. ' „. ■' Special to the Globe. Reading, Pa., June 23. — A trial of un usual interest took place here to-day. Rev. Dr. B. Albright, superintendent of Bethany orphans' home. Womelsdorf, this county, which has about 100 orphans, was charged with f cruelly treating an orphan, Harry Kramer, aged 13 years, it being shown by the testimony that Kramer and two other boys took letters clandestinely to the post office; that Albright whipped them with a stick a yard long and nearly an inch in diameter; that Kramer's back and arms were cut open in a terrible man ner, producing welts and abrasions, the marks of which he carried on his person three months; that when whipped lie was required to take off all clothing, excepting his shirt, and that this garment stuck to his wounds when released. Kramer, after the whipping, fled from the home'at night and in the middle of last winter walked fifteen miles on the railroad to his home in this city. Albright has since been removed from his position. A similar investigation into cruelties at the school was made ten years ago. The prosecution alleged to-day that at that time some of the boy's finger nails were split open as a punishment. Destroyed by Fire. Newark, N. J., June 23.— works of the American Forcite Powder company, on the shore of the lake Hopateong, Morris county, were entirely destroyed by fire and an explosion on Monday afternoon. Some of the mixture used in the manufacture of the powder took lireaccidently. The flames spread to the adjoining building in which was a large quantity of dynamite. An ex plosion followed which was heard for miles around and which scattered bnrning por tions of the building in every direction. All the buildings used in the manufacture of dynamite and other explosives were entirely destroyed, but fortunately no one was seri ously injured. The loss is estimated . at §100,000. - '• Called to Winona. Special to the Globe. BBQ Galena, 111., June 23.— Rev. . W. \ H. !

PAUL, THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE 24, 1886. AND STILL THEY COME Seven More Veto Messages Sent to Con gress by President Cleveland Yesterday. A Dead-Lock in the Lower House Caused by Inexcusable Republican Filibustsring. Lively Discussion in tlio Senate of the Anti- Fee-Taking Bill. An Act Passed Providing for the Pay ment of Steam Vessel Inspectors. More Vetoes. Wasjiington, Juno 23. — The president has to-day sent to congress seven vetoes, all the vetoed measures being private pension bills which originated in the senate. Among the bills vetoed was one granting a pension to Alfred Denny, whose record showed no disability, but twenty years after he was discharged he tiled a claim alleging that he was injured by being thrown . forward upon tin; horn of. his saddle. The president ; says: The number of instances in which those of our soldiers who rode horses during- the war were injured 'by. being thrown forward upon their saddles, indicates that these saddles are very dangerous contrivances. . •. • A DEAD LOCK. House 3tjs:nc»:!i Blocked fey Itepub* lican Filibusters. "Washington, June 23. — Mr. Morrison called up the report of the committee on rules, amending the rules of the house, upon which the debate occurred yesterday. Mr. Reefl raised the question of considera tion, and Mr. Hisccck, expressing his de sire to go on with .the sundry civil bill, Mr. Randall remarked that he could take care of that measure. On a standing vote the house* refused — to 80 — to consider the report, and the result was received with i applause from the Republicans. But on a yea and nay vote, the house determined — yeas 133,. nays 115 — to consider the report, Mr. Reed changing his vote at the last mo ment to enable him to move to reconsider. Having made that motion, he yielded to Mr. Hiscock to move to adjourn, and this motion. he supplemented with another that when the house adjourn to-day it be to meet on Friday next. Mr. Burrows ironi cally suggesting that Friday was too early a day. moved to substitute Saturday. Thus having laid a foundation for a day of fili bustering, the Republicans ■ ; REFRAINED FKOM VOTING and left the house without a quorum. Mr. Morrison moved a call of the house. Mr. Reed suggested that the house might con sider the sundry civil bill. will take care of the sundry civil bill," remarked Mr. .Morrison. "You, too?" exclaimed Mr. Reed in af fected surprise. "I am afraid" the sundry civil bill is being taken too much care of." A call of the house was ordered ana the doors ordered closed. . Roll call followed roll call with monotonous regularity while the members lounged in their seats, or re tired to the cloak rooms for a smoke and a talk. Both sides were determined in their course, but little attention being paid to the proceedings, which were unattended by character. , A resolution was adopted di recting the t-at-anas . to bring absent , members to the bar of the ■ house. . The. house remained, as one member character- ; ized it in' "'innocous desuetude" until 4:15, when further proceedings under the call were dispensed with. The question re curred to Mr. Burrows' motion to adjourn until Saturday. This was voted down,, yeas 2, nays 145, No quorum and another roll call consumed the time to 5 o'clock, when the house adjourned. It is understood that the proposed change of rules will not be called up for consideration to-morrow, but that the sundry civil appropriation bill will be accorded the right of way. THE FIGHT FOR FEES. Tbe Senate Send* the Anii-Attornev Bill Back to Committee. Washington, June 23. — In the senate the Hawley motion was taken up to recon sider the vote by which the senate passed the bill prohibiting members of congress from acting as attorneys of land grant rail roads. Mr. Beet resumed the floor and continued his remarks against reconsideration. He de nied that he had intended to injure anybody by the introduction of the bill. If the senate should agree to the motion to reconsider, that would be the last of the bill. Mr. Beck read Mr. Mitchell's amendments proposing- to forbid members of congress from doing law business for men who were managers of banks or importers of foreign goods, or who manufactured butter or oleomargarine, to baoco or whisky. "If that is not taking a lick at creation!" exclaimed Mr. Bsek. He deprecated that sort of amendment, but added that he bad often heard the fable of the advice given 'to all foxes by the fox whose tail had been cut off. That ad-ice was that they should all have their their tails cut off because his had been. He thought the fable illustrated the case of this amendment. It would be as reasonable to say that because a man was punished for criminally killing another man, therefore he should be punished for killing a mouse or for taking life of any kind. Mr. Beck did not know whether Mr. Mitchell was the attorney of the Northern Pacific road or not. Mr. Beck had been informed that he was. He be lieved that Mr. Mitchell bad a right to be such. Railroad companies sought iho best lawyers and had a right to them. Mr. Mitchell warmly replied that he was THE ATTORNEY OF NO RAILROAD. He desired the senator from Kentucky (Mr. Beck) to understand that he (Mr. Mitchell) had never while in the senate been employed by any railroad company to argue any case in court or out. Ho was not now and had not been for over a year the attorney of any corporation whatever. He was representing no corporation here. If a bill were to be passed on the idea that every member of con gress who was a lawyer was dishonest, with the view of making him honest, then the bill should be made to include matter indicated in Mr. Mitchell's suggested amendment. Mr. Mitchell asked Mr. Beck when anybody had told him that he (Mr. Mitchell) had been at torney for the Northern Pacific railroad. Mr. Beck said he had been so told. The time did not matter. He was glad to hear the senator confess that he had resigned as attorney when elected to the senate. Mr. Mitchell said he was not in the confessional, but he had re signed eight mouths before his election. He (Mr. Mitchell) remembered a time when it had been said in the newspapers that certain members of congress were very zealous in regard to certain whisky matters. Mr. Beck— Oh, well, that was just simply a lie, that's all there is about that. [Laughter.] Mr. Mitchell had no doubt of that. Mr. Evarts noticed that no disability had been applied by Mr. Beck to any other profession than the law. \ Ho characterized as . "UNILATERAL" LAWYERS who would be discriminated against. They could only take a case from the side opposite to the railroad. Mr. Beck said he was him self a lawyer and would not place any indig nity on the profession of the law. When elected to congress, however, be found that his public duties required all his time, not being possessed of the transcendant abilities that the senator from New York perhaps possessed. The country believed that the $5,000 a year derived by senators and repre sentatives in congress entitled the peole to their whole services, and if senators or rep resentatives could not live on that compensation they had no right to supple ment it by taking fees from corporations, whose interests wero adverse to those ;of the people. Mr. Beck did not know what a "unilateral lawyer was. He supposed that it was a one-sided lawyer, not a "quadrilateral" lawyer such as the senator from New York supposed himself to be. * Mr. Sherman, taking the floor, said the universal rule of the senate was to grant reconsideration aimost as a mat ter of course whenever asked for. Even when the senate was almost a unit against a ! bill the vote for its reconsideration bad after been unanimous. This bill met his hearty approval. The criticisms made against it jrere rather too toe. The motion to recon sider having been brought to ; a vote was agreed to yeas 31, nays 21. The only Repub lican voting in the negative was Mr. Van Wyck.' The Democrats voting in the affirma tive were Messrs. Call, Gray, Payne, P uP h and Hansom. Mr. Hawley then moved to refer the bill to the judiciary committee Mr. Vance called for the reading of the bill by way of a final "farewell" to it. . : . [Laughter.] Tho bill having been read Mr. Edmunds as sured Mr. Vanco that ho should have the pleasure of seeing the bill back in the senate within eight days. Mr. Ma.\ey (sotto voco)— With an adverse report. The bill was then referred to the judiciary comuiitte by a vote of 30 to 21. Steam Vessel Inspectors. Washington, Jane 23. — In , the senate Mr. Frve, from the committee on commerce, reported favorably a bill to amend the laws relating to the inspection of steam vessels. The bill provides for the payment out of the treasury of the expenses of steamboat in spectors. Mr. Fryo said the ■ bill was in answer to a recommendation of the president. The ves sel owners of the country,'. Mr. Frye added, are under obligations to the president for his approval of the shipping bill, jj and.. for his recommendation for supplementary legisla tion to provide for the expenseuof the steam boat inspectors. Congress ought at once to provide that legislation. The trill was passed without debate. ST B L WAT 32 SB ££ ACE S. The 3Io«»t l'.\ri:->:z Contests Ever Seen in the City. . Special to the Globe. • Still water. Juno 23.— The opening day of the driving club races was the most j successful that Stillwater has ever seen. The attendance was exceedingly large for a first day and the grand stand was filled in every part, St. Paul ami Minneapolis being fairly represented. Better weather could not desired, the track was in excellent condi | tion and it was evident that the large ! crowd would be treated to some pretty fast trotting. There were but two events on the card, with a special for home talent to fill up if time would admit, ? but time did ! not admit, and it was only through a con j siderable scratching of ? he elastic rule that \ ! races can go on all the time '.there is light J that the races were brought to a decision. , From the first heat . to » the last in both j events it was anybody's race, and more un i certain and more hotly contested- races were never run on this course, it anywhere in the state. There was some little jockey ! ing, but each heat seemed to be for ? , blood. The judges were H. D. McKenney, lied Pillsbury and G. M. Seymour,; Mr. Mc j Keuuey acted as starter awl Messrs. Castle, | Oswald and Anderson kept the time. The ] first race was for the three-minute class for a purse of 8400. Ten horses entered, two withdrew, leaving eight ' starters. Two o clock was the scheduled time for the race but owing to considerable jockeying it was three before McKeuney could give the word go. The horses got off fairly well in place. Before the quarter was reached Dr. L. drew away from the ruck and with the exception of a short term nearing the half kept the lead -.- throughout, winning the heat in 2:34>£, with Sherwoods Cricket a good second. In the second heat Letiie Watterson took the lead and kept it to the wire. At the half, Koss' Cricket closed' up the distance, but the gray soon drew away again and fin ished fully four lengths ahead of the Litch field horse. Third heat— The Litchfield Cricket took the lead, followed by The Doc tor, Cora C, Kobert Palmer and Watter son. At the half mile Lettie crept up to third place, and nearing the three-quarter ran neck-and-neck with The Doctor. Coming into the homestretch the mare gave The Doctor dust, and was closing the. light out between herselfTLlio'tLro' 1 insect, when Burge used the whip judiciously, the pace became too fast and the mare broke, giving the heat to the Cricket. Fourth heat — Cricket again got the lead, fol lowed by Watterson, Palmer and The Doctor, keeping these positions till the half was passed; the gray here began to forge ahead, giving the Cricket a good lead. Fifth heat — Koss' Cricket again led out to the quarter, followed closely byThe Doctor, Robert Palmer and Watterson. The gray broke badly and ran fully a quarter of the distance to hold her position, and the opinion prevailed that she should have been sent to the stable. The insect made the heat with Cora C a good second. Sixth — Three horses started. Cricket led The Doctor and Lettie to the quarter mile. Watterson then changed places with The Doctor, and nearing the three-quarter post closed on Cricket, and came down the home stretch at a jog, winning the race. Dr. L.. B. T.

In the fourth heat Capitola and Hancock came in collision, the drivers were thrown and the horses bolted, Capi tola breaking her sulky to splinters. Han cock passed twice round the course before he could be stopped, doing very little dam age to his sulky. ; Both horses were con siderably hurt, but more partic ularly the mare. There was ' much talk down town about a conspir acy to run Capitola off the. track and from developments it would seem that there was some truth . in the outspoken rumors, for Hancock fouled with the mare in the second heat, smashing four spokes out of her off wheel. The starter had a great difficulty in getting a start in the sixth heat. Alexander's driver, McHenry, doing all he . could to prevent a start. His horse threw a shoe, and when the start was made his horse was distanced in the second half mile and soon after turning the part he came to a dead halt, and so remained till he was brought, in, when he claimed his horse trod in a hole and rushed against the fence throwing him from his seat.

Oshkosh Plays Ball in the Ninth Inning in a Way to Astonish the Oream City Boys. Capt. Anson's Chicago Team Saying Severe Things About the Um pire at Detroit. The Red Caps Against the League Team--Sportlng; Notes from All Over the Field. Minneapolis Downed Affain. Jennison should never umpire another game in Minneapolis, and doubtless he never will. By some mysterious dispensa tion he was appointed a league umuire. He is a weloncholy failure. In yesterday's game between Minneapolis and buluth he was the feature and was certainly the best man the Duluth had. Some of his decisions were so outrageously rank that the very grass laughed at him, while the crowd hooted In derison. In the eighth inning Baldwin knocked the ball over the left field fence. It was so palpable foul that Baiwin did not run until shouted at by his captain, but Jennison called it fair and two runs resulted. In the next inning Crooks poppedjustsuchaballover the right field fence, but it was promptly ruled a foul. Strikes were called on Minneapolis without provocation and runners called out who were so evidently safe the basemen had drawn back. In a word, he disgusted even the Duluth men, especially as the game was theirs, anyhow. TJp to the third inning THE GAME WAS A BEAUTY, but bad errors by Rhue and Caniillion let in three runs. Baldwin had disabled two men by careless pitching, and the umpire had disheartened the rest. Bates was pounded for ten hits, with a total of four teen, Minneapolis getting seven and a total of nine. One of these was a three-bagger by FoJey, which would have been a home run but for the long grass. A beautiful eatcli by O'Kouke ot McMillan's long iiy against left held fence and Legsfs clumsy throw ing to second were features of "a game which Duluth otherwise practically played without errors. Scheffers play behind the bat was the best yet seen on the grounds, seven put-outs and two assists going to his credit. Cantillion's second base piay was wretched and he should be replaced at once. He caught a fine fly from Baldwin's bat, but buth of ins errors were in critical places, one letting in one and the other two runs. Fole;' and Lynch carried their fields well. The general play of Duluth was fine. The score is appended:" Minneapolis^.

Oshkosh, Wis., June 23.— Milwaukee lost the game to-day by errors at critical points, but Oshkosh obtained its lead by batting Kelly for five earned runs in the ninth inning. Oshkosh's errors, though numerous, were not costly. Hallstrom and Ingraham, Oshkosh's new battery, did finely, Ingraham's throwing to second being especially good. Williams and Pope, late of Oshkosh, played with the Cream City boys to-day and did well. The game was largely attended. Score : Oshkosh.

Barnes' Team Won. • Yesterday afternoon the St. Paul league team played an exhibition game with the Ked Caps on the grounds of the latter, in West St. Paul, which resulted in a score of 12 to 4in favor of the league team . Not withstanding the size of the score the game was not without a good deal of interest. The Ked Caps played a sharp game up to the seventh inning, after which they weak ened, and for a few minutes in the eighth inning they were badly broken up and piled up errors in a very unfortunate manner. At the same time the league men batted the Ked Cap pitcher very hard. Fitzsimmons struck out fourteen Red Caps, while but one league man went out that way. At the end of the seventh inning the West St. Paul men had shut out the league ciub four times and were doing very good work. Their playing was exceedingly creditable, and the audience, which numbered several hundred, largely West St. Paul people, did not hesitate to signify in loud tones their approval.

Detroit 8, Philadelphia S. Detroit, June 23. — For the opening game with the Detroits. the Philadelphias put Casey In the box, and that young man was probably never more severely punished. Ilis support was very good, but the way Detroit bunched hits was discouraging. Three hits and a passed ball gave the home club one run in the first. Four hits gave two more in the sixth. But in the seventh most of the work was done, an out at first with three singles, a double and a triple giving Detroit five earned runs. Philadel phia scored first on a single, a -put cut and a poor throw to second. In the fourth, a double and a single gave them one more. In the eighth, three singles and a double netted three earned runs. Both nines fielded closely at critical points. Baldwin was very effective, and eleven Quakers struck out. Andrews and McGuire led in the batting for tho visitors with three hits apiece. Brouthers was satisfied with" four hits for five times at the bat.

BEATEN AND KICKING. Chicago Lays Its Defeat to. tue Uni . pire—Spalding's Views. Special to the Globe. Chicago, June 23.— Chicagos re turned from Detroit this morning in any thing but a pleasant frame of mind. The cause of their wrath was the fining of Capt, Ansou in yesterday's game and the umpire's strong partisan feeling in favor of the Wolverine club. The . boys say that while they made some mistakes, their em>rs would not have lost them the two last games had Gaffney ruled as an impartial umpire should have done. They complain bitterly of his discrimination on balls and strikes, and assert that had he been fair the results would have been different. Gaffney, they say, has umpired in all the games played on the Detroit grounds thus far, and has favored the home team in every contest. .He has been wined and dined, given carriage rides and been presented with flowers ■by friends of the Detroits until he has become biased in their favor. Concerning the fining of Capt. Auson, they say that when the big first baseman left his position to ask about a ruling at second base, and before he had opened his mouth, Gaffnsy said: 'Til fine you $10." The captain then ASKED FOR AX EXPLANATION when Gaffuey, without answering said: "Fifty dollars more." Then Anson talked very plainly to him, when he was fined an additional §50. Kelly was also fined §10 for standing too near the coaching line. To this procedure Mike objected, .when Gaffney told him that if he repeated the act the fine would stand. Kelly is assistant captain aiid'bad a perfect right to stand on the line and coach the basemen, while Anson as j captain of the club had an unquestionable right to ask why Gaffney had declared a man safe at second when Pfeffer and the runner himself says he was touched four feet from the base. The matter will be reported to President Young. PRESIDENT SPALDIXG frankly admitted that the Detroit sluggers are tenors. They outplayed us in the three games.' Why, we only won the first through excellent management and team work. The Detroits were playing on their own grounds and had the eclat of success and played ball from the word go. The few of the boys whom I have seen since their return say that Gaffney's de cisions favored the Detroits; that ho has um pired all the games on the Detroit grounds this season and has become a local favorite, being the recipient of flowers and such truck. Well, I don't know anything about that. I saw Saturday's game and I thought the um piring very fair. He may have erred in calling balls and strikes, but he made no really obnoxious decisions. The boys were outplayed; that's about the size of it. Oarsmen in the City., Gaudaur and llamm, who will take part in the race at White Bear lake on Saturday, are at the lake taking their regular exer cise. Both were in the city yesterday and appear to be in splendid condition. Gaud aur is a large man, not stocky, and but six feet high and as hard as a bone. Both of these men appear very much pleased with the lake and anticipate a big crowd. Teemer will arrive in St. Paul this morn ing from Pittsburg ' and go directly to the lake, where he will remain till the race is over. At 10 o'clock Gaudaur and Hamra take their morning exercise and at 3 in the afternoon they have another turn at the oars. Possibly Teemer will exercise with them this afternoon. The proposed ama teur race will not take place as was at first intended. To Investigate iUuilane. Special to the Globe. Columbus, C, June 23. — President Wyckoff has called a meeting of the Ameri can Base Ball association for Cincinnati June 30, to hear charges against Tony Mul lane. Small Talk.

Pat Killen, who a short time ago issued a challenge to Capt. Daly for a contest, says he has heard nothing from that gentlemen, and would like to hear from him. He says he wants to fight six rounds or more for the total gate receipts, 75 and 25 per cent,, or all or nothing, at any place the captain may select. The Winona Bicylcle club sent out yester day very neatly printed invitations to all members of the American Wheelmen's league in Minnesota to attend the Fourth of July celebration in Winona. One hundred bicyclists are expected in the street procession in the forenoon.

They Go on a Strike Again in the Lake Shore Eailway Yards a* Chicago, And Fiercely Assault Several Train Handi Who Attempt to Move Freight Trains. A New York Boycotter Has a Pros pect of Spending Five Years In Prison. Tke Iron Moulders Contemplate Join ing tne Knights of Labor-- Tne Plumbers. Lake Shore Switchmen. Chicago, June 23.— Sixty-six of the switchmen employed by the Lake Shore road in the Forty-third street yards went on a strike this afternoon by order of the union. Business is practically at a stand still. The matter at issue between the road and its switchmen have apparently been satisfactorily settled half a dozen times within the last few days, but are in bad shape again. Just how bad it is is difficult to hnd out. At the stock yards the dressed beef shippers were all notified that trouble was pending and that they had best send their goods East by some other line. A heavy down town shipper who wanted to make arrangements to send goods East to morrow was advised to try some other route as the company were expecting its men to go out. The real question at issue now is the terms of settlement made two months ago on the occasion of that strike. The settlement was made by the intervention of Sheriff Hauchettand Commissioner Mc- Carthy. The company vow holds that its managers did not make the provisions which the men have supposed, but con sented only that the strikers should return to work. About the time the sixty-six men quit work, the committee which had been in session down town during the greater part of the forenoon, decided to order the men to go on with their work. Messages were drafted and sent to all the stations. At Forty-third street, for gome reason or other the switching crews either did not re ceive their messages or did not understand them and all but two of the crews quit work. At the other points the men kept on at work. The switching engines at the stock yards ran around and gave notice to the different crews there and they began to leave work. At the central office the com mitteemen and the officials could not under stand this. It was assumed, however, that these men had not got their messages to go on with their work or else did not under stand them. Division Superintendent Ains den said that the men at Forty-third street had certainly gone on a strike. He could not explain it, he said, for it was altogether contrary to the agreement made by the com mittee. The switchmen at Englewood and all along the line in the city joined the strikers. No trains were allowed to move. About 3 o'clock an effort was made to move a train at Forty-third street. Sud denly A MOB APPEASED on the scene, the members of •which tried, by throwing a switch, to ditch the engine and train and did succeed in getting the caboose off the track. Separate sections of the mob attacked the train men, throwing coupline pins at them and kicking and pounding them. The conductor, CharleS Pease, of Elkhart, was badly injured being knocked down and kicked by a half dozen of the assailants. John Berger, the switch^ man, was also hurt, but how seriously could not be learned. The engineer and fireman escaped entirely. No arrests were made. The night switchmen unanimously failed to put in an appearance for duty. The switchmen held a meeting to-night and afterwards said they had decided to STAND BY EACH OTHEB and fight the issue through, now that they had committed themselves. They declare that there will be no compromise, and that they propose to make the company come to terms. Their temporary executive com mittee was continued permanently, con sisting of D. O'Keilly, chairman, William Fritch and Edward Dike. A squad of twenty police will be sent to Forty-third street early in the morning, and a special night force kept patrolling the track. The opinion is expressed by the strikers thai the company must either discharge tha eight non-union men or all the strikers. Tlie officials declare positively that they will not do the former, and in the latter event it is stated that the freight handler* may become involved. The Iron .Moulders. Pittsburg, June 23.— The movement reported several months ago with a view to consolidate the Iron Moulders' union with the Knights of Labor is rapidly taking shape. The executive board of the Knights of Labor has issued a circular to the meuld ers and a series of resolutions instructing delegates to the next moulders' convention to vote for the consolidation, is now in tha hands of every lodge of moulders in tha country, and will be acted upon soon. Tha Moulders' union is claimed to have a mem bership of 100,000 men. The circular cites substantially identical reasons for joining the Knights as were lately submitted to the conventions of the Typographical union and the Amalgamated association. A Boycotter Convicted. New York, June 23.— The first trial under the conspiracy law for boycotting was held to-day. Paul Wilzig was the ac cused. The specific act charged against him was that he. in connection with others, had put a boycott upon the concert saloon of one George Thiess, and not satisfied with bringing him to terms in the matter of employing only union men and of pay ing union wages, had extorted $1,000 from him to pay the expenses of the boycott. All of these points were proved and the jury brought in a verdict of guilty. The extreme penalty is five years imprison ment. The Plasterers' Strike. Pittsburg, June 23. — The plasterers of the two cities, some 700 in number, have gone out on another strike. This will close building operations for some time unless the trouble is settled. The Contractors' union has filed a new scale, which stipu lates that ten hours constitute a day's work, at 30 cents an hour. At this rate, it is averred, the men would earn more money, but they positively refuse to work more than eight hours a day. The Plumbers Compromise. St. scorns, June 23. — The conference to-day between the striking and master plumbers resulted in the adoption of a compromise which ends the strike which began May 1. The bosses have agreed to pay and the journeymen to accept nine hours pay for eight Uours work instead of ten hours pay for the shorter hours. Hnrd in the Field. Special to the Globe. Toledo. 0., June 23. — The announce ment is made to-night that Hon. Frank Hurd will be tl.o Fourth of July orator. There is more in this than appears on the surface. It has been settled that Mr. Hurd shall run for congress from this district this fall, and his Fourth of July speech will be the introduction and his first appearance since he left for Washington to contest the seat of Hon. Jacob Romeis, in which he was defeated. Mr. Hurd has many friends in this city, who will take up his case and make the campaign hot from then oh. The Hurd Democrats are very jubilant to night over their success in having Hurd [ accepted as the orator of the day.
