demned by the League.
The Delaware State League met last
evening at 2nd and Tatnsll Sts. Andrew
Selak of the Quickstep club, at the opening
made a statement to tbe effect that the
article iu the Morning Newa la relation to
the umpire of Saturday's game was not
true, and was without authority from his
club. The Quicksteps bad not a word to
say about Milton Ferguson's umpiring, and
they wanted everybody to understand that
they bad done or said nothing to inspire
tbe criticism ot the News. Ur. Selak was
granted tbe Privileg» of furnishing score
cards for ail games played in Wilmington.
A communication was read from tbe
Smyrna club applying tor admission into
tbe league.
On motion of Mr. Peoples, manager o'
tbe Wilmington, the motion of June 9
that the league be closed to all other ap
plicants, was reconsidered, and Mr Selak
was authorized to communicate with the
Smyrna club and .ask (b.m to send a rep
resentative to the a»xt meeting ot tbe
league
Mr. Hyatt was unanimously chosen
acorer for all clubs when vhiting Seaford,
his expenses to be paid by tbe olnb which
he accompanies.
There was a lively discussion over the
matter of tampering with players. It was
agreed that it wae a thing that no club had
a right to do. Tbe article on the snbj >ct
la the Evening Journal, was read and
and received with many expression of
favor. Tbe press of the city was highly
praised for the support they have given

BTjimln Harrieoo, tbe Uepehlloan esh
1 didate for Freeident, was born at North
Bend, Ohio, August 20, 1833. When 16
years of age he entered Miami University,
from which, two y para later, he was grad
Dated. Ou leaving college be began the
study of law in tbe oifle» uf Hon B. Storer,
j Cincinnati. He was married at 20 and
entered upon the practice of bis profession
j in Indianapolis in 1854. He waa then 31
years of age, practically without resources
j and with a wife dependent upon him for
support He soon succeeded in gaining a
reputation for diligence, and became a
leading speaker in the Fremont campaign
of 1856. He wae then elected reporter of
the Supreme Coon of Indiana, which posi
tion be held at tbe breaking out of the civil
war.
It was in July, 1863, that Gov. Morton
met him on tbe street one day and said to
bim: "Ben, I want you to raise a regi
ment.
He accepted this assignment,
raised a company, was commissioned a
second lieutenant, then a captain, and
then colonel of tbe 17th Indiana. Aa col
onel of this regiment hs went to tbe front
and for a while performed garrison doty
in Kentucky and Tennessee up to January,
1864, whan bis regiment wae assigned to
the 1st brigade ot tbe 31 division of tbe
30th Army Corps.
In the charge at Rsasoa May 15, 1864, fais
regiment 1e-l tbe assault. In this charge
many of Harrison's men were hilled and
w innded. Colonel Harrison led hia men
gallantly in that action, bis command
rushed irrc-sisttb y over the enemy's ter
rible lioes sud capturing both lines aod
guns. At Peach Tree creek white com
manding Ma brigade, bla soldierly qualities
drew from hie commanding nffic r, Gen
eral "Joe" Hooker, the most enthusiastic
praise Oa tbe battle field be declared
that ne would make Colonel Harrison brig
adiei* general tor his part io the fight. And
be wrote a di.patch to Secretary of War
Stamon, in which be recommended
bis promotion, complimented hie
brigade for ita discipline, praised
him for his wiadon, foresight and
valor, and advised his promotion as a just
recognition ot bis services and martial ac
complishment». He served through tbe
war to iw close. He took part io tne siege
and battle of Nashville, was at tne surren
der of Johnston, and with bis command
participated in the final review uf tbe
Union forcée at Washington before tbe
i
great army became once more a part of
ihe common body of citizens. He served
with credit till the end of the war and es
eped without injury.
After tbe close of the war he was again
reelected Reporter of the Supreme Court,
and declined a re-elec*ion in 1868, and de
voted himself to the practice of law.
Iu 1876 he was made tbe candidate for

he contended for the perfect freedom of
the government employe to contribute for
political purposes.
While in the Senate he gained a wide
reputation as a good lawyer and a ' -rong
debater. He Is of a cold tempe, ament and
has a strong dislike to shaking hands
Application, concentration of mind, thor
oughness and fondness for work are said
to be bis predominating characteristics He
is not regarded as a very rich man, but is
In the enjoyment of a very large law prac
tice.
He owns a handsome home In Indianapo
lis, where bis wife, who was a daughter of
Prof. Scott of Oxf >rd, receives much
pauy. They have a married daughter and
a son. who is becoming prominent In the
politics of Montana Territory.
Harrison is a member of the Indian
•polls Literary Club and occasion
ally takes part fu its debates and
cisea. Ha is also an active member of the
First Presbyterian Church and some years
ago taught a Bible class in the Sunday
school. Personally Governor Harrison is
somewhat under the averega height, but
bis straight, strong figure, soldierly bear
iog and easy dignity of manner make him
a noticeable person among men. His hair
Is very fair, and bis face ij clothed with a
blond bsard In wblcn there are no streaks
of gray. One term of coarse in the Senate
did not encrust him with the veneering of
Senatorial reserve. He Is one of the most
approachable of men, ready to talk upon
all public subjects freely.
Levi Parsons Morton, the candidate for
Vice President, was born Hhoreham, Vt,
May 16, 1824 being a son of the late Rev,
Daniel O Morton. While bis early edu
cational advantages were limited to those
ot the ccmiu id schools, his boms training
and the healthful moral atmosphere in
which bis youth was passed particularly
fitted him for years of future usefulness
and for winning for himself a successful
and commanding position among men.
His earliest experience of business waa in a
country store at Hanover, N H After
five years he sought a wider field of
activity In Boston, whore, unaided by
money or li finance, ho worked hit way to
a membership In the firm of Beebe,
Morgan & Co., at the same time
• bat Mr. Morton, successor to Ueooge Pen
body & Co , London, became connected
with the house, lu 1854 Mr. Morton came
to Naw York and established the dry goods
firm of Morton & Grinnell. In 1863 he
gave up trade and entered the banking
business About the same time he estab
llsbed a partnership In London with Sir
John Hose, formerly minister of finance in
Canada, the bons» being known as Morton,
Rose & Co. The latter were the fiscal
agents of the United States from 1873 to
1884 The firms of which he was the bead
were active iu the syndicates which nego
tiated United States bonds, and In the pay
ment of the Geneva award of $15,006 060
and the Halifax award of $5,000,000. Hr.
Morton was appointed honorary enmmis
sionary to the Pari* exposition la 1878.
In 1876 be was nominated tor Congress
by the Republicans of the Eleventh Naw
York district and barely escaped election,
having very materially reduced the major
ity of bis Democratic opponent. In 1878
he again received the nomination, and this
time was successful by a large majority
and ba waa reelected in 1880 Hie course
io Congress was such as to command
the admiration of bis friends aad tbs re
spect ot those holding opposite political
views. Hs g tve strict attention to public
basinets, and faithfully observed not only
the Interest ot bis Immediate constituents
but of the country at large. In the large
field ot public life be waa no lets prcgrei
slvs and successful than la the admirable
administration ot bi« privat« business af
fairs.
Mr. Morton declined the nomination of
Vice-President on tbs Republican ticket in
188dl President Garfield tendered him tbe
positions of Secretary of the Navy or Min
ister to France. He chose tbe latter, and
filled tbe post with great acceptance from
1881 to I8S5 Through his »ff na tbe re
strictions upon tbe importation ot Amerl
can pork into Franca were removed and
American corporation* obtained a legal
status in tbe sister Republic. He was tbe
American commis-i mer to tbe Paris
Electrical Commission, the représenta ive
ot this country at tbe Submarine Cable
Convention, and publicly received, in the
name of tbe people of tbe United States,
the Bortboldi Statue ot Liberty enlighten
ing tbe world.
After Hr. Conkling's resignation as
United State Senator In 1881 Mr. Horton
was piomiuently mention«! by bis friends
for that position. He was a candidate for
tbe isms place in tbe election of 1887.
Ur Morton has been tor many years
conspicuously connected with many
benevolent movements, notably that of
sending, in 1880, a cargo ot provisions in
tbe navel ebip Constitution for tbe famine
stricken people of Ireland.
