HOW 1T DIED.
Report Of the Last Meeting on the
Railway Matter.

The right of way question is dead, hut the
manner of its dying is not gener lily known,
and we produce it that our realers may know
how it died. After the board Oh three arbi
traitors had found damages for a little over
$4,000, a meeting was held, at which those
present consisted of Messrs. Foster and
DAcheul on one part, and Col. Wash. Dunn
and Mr.. Word on the other part, with a
MINER reporter taking side notes OH the side.
Messrs. D'Acheul and Foster submitted the
findings Of the arbitrator. The Railway
representatives said that new obstacles had
arisen, and that additional claimants and
claims were presented, and addressing
Messrs D'Acheui and Foster, Mr.. Word. for
the Railway, made this proposition:-"Gen-
tlemen. the Railway will pay every cent o
the award of $4,000 damages, if you guarar-
tee that DO further Instructions or claims for
damages will be presented and Mr.. Word
added: "The graders will be put to work i'm.
mediateiy." Messrs. D'Achpul and Foster
could not and would not give such a eu.ran-
tee, for it was placing them in such a position
as to make them ind. vidualIy responsible fOr
any real or truInped up damages that rev
claimants were liable to make. and the right
of way question, without further ce CEREMONY.
died at hat point. notwithstanding the he
S0tiati MS ave resulted in a failure, it is be-
lieved that il the claims of three or four in
dividuals were satisfied that the Railway
would reach Butte yet this fall.

BASE BALL.
we Have Met the Enemy and We
Are Theirs"

The return match o. base ball between the
Helena Nine and Butte Nine was played at
the Race Track ground yesterday afternoon.
The day was unfavorable for the game. A
high vino was blowing and binding clouds
OF dust were flying all afternoon, which made
the attendance light to what it was expected
it would be. Notwithstanding the unpleasant
day, there was a far sized crowd on the
ground, among whom quite a number Of
prominent Helenaites were noticed. The Hell.
ena Nine were Oh he ground an hour Or SO
before the time appointed for commencing
the game, and spent the time in a sort of linn
bering Up practice. The Buttes arrived on
the ground short of a player, and in fact the
Nine was, in part, a III ade-up nine FOL the oc
casion. A substitute wa found for the ab-
sent member, and, although the wind was
raising clouds Of dust, it was decided to 90 on
with the game. An umpire had been select
ed before leaving the city, who failed to put
in all appearance, and after waiting some
time Mr.. Johnny Mcmahon was agreed upon
20 umpire the game. He performed that du y

The Buttes had the first innings, and at the
call of time by the umpire the game
opened in tIp-top style. Bo,h mines
went out on their first innings without max
ing a score. On the second innings each
nine made a score of one. The third innings
was a blank tor bo'h clubs, and up to the
fourth innings of the Helenas it was all even
thing. At this Stage OF the game the Buttes
became demoralized, so to speak, and the
Helenas scored three before they were put
out on their fourth innings. On the fifth in
nings the Buttes did not rally and the Hele.
mas wound mp their fifth innings with an adj
ditional score If three more which made the
game stand seven to one. 1t was now ap-
parent that the Buttes would be scooped, I'M
less they made a tremendous effort. IN the
9th, 7th, and Sth innings the Helenas added
one more run and the Buttes nothing to their
core of one. In the nineth inning the Buttes
Tailed two and went out. This ended the
game, with a score of eight for the Helenas
and three for the Buttes, with til ninth ill.,
ninss for the Helena, to lie play ed. Some
excellent playing was done by the members
of both clubs. The Helena team is a strong
one, well organized, and it was admirably
Conducted while in the field. \ part of the
Butte nine played with great skill, but the
weak members OF club were too many. The
score of the game was as follows:
