Detroit, st. Louis and Duluth Con.
tinue in the Lead.

The Northwestern league has been rather
inactive during the past week. Milwaukee
has play ed five games, st. Paul four, Eau
Claire and Minneapolis three each, Oshkosh
two and Duluth one. st. Paul has had the
worst of it, having lost three games out of
four. A week ago the prospects of the
Capital City club were of the best, but
present indications are that it will have to
play pretty steady game to retain second
place. Duluth. to be sure. has only lead
of four games, but, considering the matter
from the other direction, we find st. Paul
has lost seven more games than the Zenith
City team. Duluth has nineteen games to
play at home and it is considerable adj
vantage to play on home grounds. Mime
apolis continues to win almost every game
in which Sowders pitches. but commenced
winning too late in the season to get far
above the last rOng Of the ladder. The
games this week will be as follows: st.
Paul with Duluth at Duluth on Sunday
and with Milwaukee at st. Paul on Satur-
day; Oshkosh with Milwaukee at Milwau-
kee on Sunday. and with Duluth at Duluth
on Saturday; Minneapolis with Duluth at
Duluth on Tuesday and Wednesday and
with Eau Claire at Minneapolis on Satur-
day. The record to date is as follows:

NATIONAL LEAGUE.

By far the most interesting event in the
National league is the announcement that
the st. Louis team is to disband and the
Pittsburg American team take its place.
The latter is one of the strongest in the
American association, and it is believed it
will make better showing than the club
which it replaces. Dunlap, Denny and
Glasscock, three of the strongest men in the
ST. Louis club, go to Detroit. The latter
still has lead over all competitors. and
it is probable that with its new players
it will be easily able to win the champion
ship. Both Chicago and New York, how
ever, are very close up, and the contest is
likely to have plenty of interest for month
yet. Boston is doing the steadiest work of
any of the teams. but is too far behind to
be factor in the fight. Washington COLI

CINCINNATI, Aug. 7.-Gath's dispatch
from Washington to the Enquirer contains
the following: The injury done inside of
The Republican lines has tended to show
the country the condition of evaporation
among the candidates. The cloth may as
well be pulled aside and the general facts
stated. John A. Logan embarked in a
presidential contest with all his intense
ambition, which was fostered under the
example of Stephen A. Douglas and nour-
ished by Gen. Grant. He started out not
to be vice-president but president. He
took the vice-preSidency rather as humil-
iation than a victory. After Blaine was
defeated by few votes, Gen. Logan had
it understood that he was not going to
stand behind any other man another year.
His boom started right off and was chiefly
nourished by the military element. When

other little matters assisted. He found that

much patti ence. 1t used to be said by Gen.
Grant that W henever there was no lighting
to do Logan was the biggest grumbler in
the army, but when the enemy was in
sight
HE STOPPED HIS GRUMBLING,
and was one of the best fighters Grant ever
cav. That is somewhat the case at the
present time. Now the Ohio mutineers,
who certified everybody up where nobody
could reach them, resolved that Logan
should not be the candidate for the presi-
dency after he had failed to see things with
their spectacles, etc. He was solemnly read
out of the party. for it is the same to read
man out of his chances to be a
candidate as to read a smaller man

dismissed from the list of conseouentials.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. THE St. Louis
league base ball team is fast nearing disso-
luton. Dunlap. the famous second base
man, has been released and has signed with
the Detroits. The same can also be said
in day or two of Glasscock and Denny,
and Manager Lucas is about to disband the
club and sever his connection with the
league. The latter has made several visits,
it is understood, to Chicago and has called
upon President Spalding in order to make
some arrangements whereby league games
may be played in st. Louis on Sunday.
President Spalding has intimated that no
such arrangement is possible. and Manager
Lucas said that remuneratiye business
cannot be done by his team otherwise. and
it is said that dissolution has been deter
mined upon. The Pittsburg American as
ISOLATION team, it is understood. has agreed
to withdraw from that association and sup
ply the vacancy thus made. The change,
it is confidently expected, will be made
before the Goth of this month, the date set
for the Maroons' return home.

Mr.. HiIlNotiu 1T.

A rumor was circulated yesterday to the
effect that j. j. Hill, president of the Mani
toba road, and others in st. Paul had sub
scribed $4,000, and that similar sum had
been subscribed in Minneapolis, for the
purpose of forming base ball club for the
two cities, to be located midway between
the two on the line of the Manitoba road,
and that the club thus organized is to enter
the National league. Mr.. Hill. on having
his attention called to the rumor last even
ing, denied it most emphatically. He adj
mitted the Importance of the national game,
but said he had no time for it and that rail-
roads and cattle occupied his whole atten-
ton.

MANKATo, Aug. THE Republican
county committee met in this city yester-
day and concluded to hold two county con-
ventions. The one convention will be to
select delegates to the state convention and
the other to be held Sept. "A to nom mate q
county ticket. This arrangement is decId-
eddy distasteful to the majority of the vo-
tiers in this city and almost universally so
among the farmers. Many of the candi
dates for county Offices declare that it will
disrupt the party and jeopardise the chances
of the ticket next November The belief
is held by some that it is wholly in the in
terest of Railroad Commissioner Baker,
wac would like to appear in the state con-
vention apparently controlling Blue Earth

the two convention issue. The Prohibi-
tons have called a county convention to
nominate county tichet. to be held Sept
4. This will give us four full-hedged
tickets upon which to exercise suffrage next
fall.

TALK OF A DARK HORSE.
Special to the Globe.
W1NoNA, Aug. r. Interviews with
prominent Republicans here this evening
show that the prevailing opinion of the old
timers is that White will be the nominee of
the Kasson convention. They say Lovely
has every vote he can possibly get, if he
receives the solid votes of the counties
claimed viz: Winona. Houston, Freeborn
and Dodge. This will give him but thirty
four votes, and they assert that it will be
an impossibility for him to draw from any
other county. White, with Fillmore,
Mower and Olmsted counties, goes into the
convention with thirty-one votes and Dun
nelrs good will. Wabasha county will
doubtless give him some support after the
first ballot, possibly four or five votes and
if Dunnell can throw his Steele county del
egation where he wishes, White can be
nominated on the second ballot Lovely's
friends here claim that the Albert Lea man
will get there, but indications do not point
that way. 1t is very certain thai
MI. Lovely is mistaken when he
counts Oh securing the Wiuona twelve as a
unit. He may get them all on the first bal
lot but at least four will desert him. A
Winona man, either Gould or Sinclair, is
the talk among all of the delegates, and it
is not improbable that dark horse from
this county may be victorious after all.
