CLEVELAN DIS ACCUSER.
A Word From Duluth About George
FL. Ball, the Scandal MOnger.
To the Editor of the Globe:

10 the Editor of the Globe:
DULUTH, Aug. 5.-Your correspondent to-
day had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Polly
Hibbard, of Armitage, N. Y. Mrs. Hibbard
is in her eighty fourth year, but is still full of
life and energy. She is visiting her son, j.
j. Hibbard, proprietor of the ferry Free Trade
plying between here and Superior. The other
day Mr.. Hibbard was reading to his mother
something about the Cleveland scandal, and
its author, when Mrs. Hibbard made the re-
mark that she knew the Rev. Geo. H. Ball.
Asked for what she knew him she answered:
''Not much that is good. He was min
lister IN Armitage some years ago, but did
not bear very good reputation. Queer
stories were told about him, and rumor was
ever busy with his name. Whether they were
true or not, the people had no confidence in
him. and he was finally compelled to leave
the place. The Baptists wouldn't recognize
nor support him, and he finally drifted to
Buffalo. His word wouldn't go far in his old
home.
Charles limerick, also OF this place, but
formally of Buffalo, also knew the renowned
Ball would be doing better defend
ing his own reputation, rather than
blackening that of Others There are
several other Buffalonians now residing here
who know of the minister, only as ward
politician, and are not surprised that his
name has got mixed up in a nasty affair.
They believe him capable of anything in that
line.

Changes in the officers Of the Wabash.


ST. LOUIS, Aug To still further effect
the divorcement of the Wabash and Missouri
Pacific systems several meetings Of the
directors of the branches of the Wabash road,
were held this afternoon and the following
changes made: Brunswick 81 Chillicothe
road, James F. How, elected president and
Col. Talmage, director; st. Louis,
Ottumwa and Cedar Rapids roads,
Col Talmage elected president, vice
II. NJ. Hoxie, and Jas. Smith and
Chas. NJ. Hays made directors; Clarenda
and st. Louis, Col. w. II. Blodgett and Chas.
M. Harp elected directors vice r. S. Hays

Louis road, Chas NJ Hays elected director,
vice r. S. Hays; st. Louis, Council Bluffs
and Omaha road, Col. Talmage elected pres-
dent, vice II. NJ. Hoxie. The report that
some division superintendents of the Wabash

error. No changes will be made among
these officers. But several division freight
agents will be appointed to work up the local
business.

A FRANK CONFESSION.
A Prosecuting Witness Owns That He
Deserved to be Slapped

''Swear the witness, Mr.. Clerk" sale
Judge Burr, as the court opened for bust
ness yesterday morning The culprit was
the illustrious John Smith, who had been on
it the night before bigger than wolf.
''were you drunk, Smith," queried th e
court.
"Just little dizzy, your honor" was the
reply. II had pain in me head and / took
drop of ginger and brandy to ease it a
little, that's all, SIR"
''Gingeris u bad thing to mix with your
bitters, Mr. Smith; five dollars or five days.
He paid the scrip.
John Devlin had been on toot and while
coming in from the Fort he stopped at a
paint-shop and wanted to whip man
named Greeley. The latter didn't want to
fight and had him arrested. He was fined
$40 and requested leave to engage d buggy
to take an officer with him to raise the fine.
The request was granted.
Gus Kease was up on the charge Of slap
ping man in the face. When the case
was called the injured individual came to
the front and explained that he had been on
toot and that the accused had slapped him
because he wouldn't behave himself When
asked if he had deserved to be slapped, he
said ne supposed SO, whereupon the de-
fenfant was discharged.
John Gessarss, one Of the old time buns,
was up on the old charge of tackling the ele-
CANT tangiefoot The old stuff had knocked
him out, as usual, and he was about to be
committed, when he produced a ticket for
Chicago and asked leave to skip. The court
ordered him to go. and Fairchild threw his
slipper after him for luck.
John Groffert, runner for one of the
cheap hotels, got into a fuss with special
copper at the depot, and the latter run him
in. The testimony showed that the accused
had put IN his lip and given the officer back
talk, when he should have held his yawp, and
for this he was fined $10.
| Mike Cody. James Bradley and J. Cavan
augh were arraigned on the charge of hold
ing drunken man up and robbing him OF
eight dollars. Bradley made clean breast
of the affair; he said they had all been on q
spree and that he had taken the money and
whacked up with Cody. He exonerated
Cavanaugh, saying that he had not partici
pated in the affair. The latter was discharged
and Cody and Bradley were sent out fol
thirty days.
VIM. Larsen, lunch fiend, was charged
with vagrancy but the officer did not appear
against him and he was let 90.

SHOOTING AT FORT SMELLING.
The First Days Practice of the
Selected R1flemen.

The Fort Smelling rifle range was all life
and animation yesterday morning, the 116
selected shooters, the storekeepers, orderlies
and others on duty in connection with the
meeting, besides visitors, swelling the num-
Der to 200 persons. The morning was not
what would be called a good one for high
scores, especially ct the 600 yards, but
good day at 200 and 800 yards. The scores
are much better than those of last year. The
wind was not strong but what marksmen
term fish tall" that is, blowing from the
right in puffs then suddenly taking turn to
the left, making it difficult to stay on the
target.
Below are the 90 best scores out of the 116
shooters OF 200 and 600 yards-seven shots
to each range: Possible score at the three

Quarantine Against Imported Rags.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Acting upon the
information that a cargo of rags had re-
Gently been passed by the state quarantine
officers at the port of New York, the secre-
tary of treasury instructed the collector of
customs at that port to allow no rags to be
imported unless positive proof was produced
that they come fIom non-infected parts and
are in themselves entirely free from infec-
ton. The fact that a vessel has clean bill
of health, and has been given permit to pass
by the local quarantine officer, is not to be
considered conclusive proof of the non-in
fected condition of her cargo. These in
structions are based on q clause in the sun
dry civil bill authorizing the president to ex-
pend sum not exceeding 800, 900 to main
tain quarantine at ports of danger and to
aid the state and local boards in preventing
and suppressing the spread of threatened or
actual epidemics. The surgeon general of
the marine hospital service advises that
the importation Of rags be totally prohibited
for the present at least, as he says they are
companions of filth and disease, no matter
from what quarter of the world they come,
and SO are always liable to convey disease.

cinity of the arch episcopal residence there
