The second game of base ball between
the printers nine, of this city, and the
9th infantry club, was played at Fort Rus
sell Sunday afternoon. and was witnessed
by a large number of persons from the
city and the fort. The game was BY far
a better n than that of the Sunday be-
fore, both clubs doing more scientific
playing. On accoun of the rain only
seven innings were played, the score being
at the end of the seventh inning, ten to
five, in favor of the printers nine. A
game will probably be played with the
18th infantry club next Sunday.

An Address to workingmen.

All the labor organizations in the city Joined
in the second annual entertainment and hop
by the Central Trade and Labor Union at Tom
linson Hall last evening. There were several
hundred ladies and gentlemen present. b. F.
Rodgers presided. The feature of the enter
tainment preceding the ball was an address by
w. P. Smith, Of the Central Union. on the work
and future of the organizations of the country.
''These organizations" said he. were formed
because the workingmen Of the Republic have
beheld the wealth rapidly passing into the hands
of those who do not produce anything, and to
those who give nothing in return. / have seen
the men who create all that want demands, in
want themselves. The object of the labor or
CARNATIONS is to find out why this
is so, and, if possible, right the
wrong. If it Is wrong to do q wrong. il is
not right to submit TO a wrong. The Central
Labor Union has done much since it came into
existence TO advance the interests of its mem
bers. Through its fundamentally the labor
party secured five representatives in the coming
Legislature. The plan that ended in their
election originated in this union, and to its
members belongs the credit" In closing his ad-
dress he said; do not let your enemies be-
guile you. Steer clear Of the politicians. They
only war. yorr votes. Avoid allowing other
men TO fatten on the products OF your own
hands" Following Mr.. Smiths address, Burgess

Not Pleased with the Bill.

The Boston Advertiser says: Those who have
paid any attention to the earning capacities Of the
railroads of the United States during the past few
years know very well that the average railway
company is not in q condition to endure much
diminution of its gross receipts. If, then, the
rate for the 'short haul" is to be the same as
for the long one it is evident that the equality
must he reached. in part, at least, by an in.
crease in the cost Of transporting the cereals of
the West to the seaboard. The bill which has
been reported by the conference committee,
therefore, Is as illogical In Its short-haul clause
as II is severe and unreasonable in It's prohibit
ton Of pooling arrangements; and It is greatly
to be regretted that the conference committee
should not have seen fit to report some moderate
and practicable measure Of federal supervision
Of railroads like the Cullom bill. To be sure the bill,
as reported by the conference committee, provides
that the commission may, on application of the
railroads and after investigation, give relief
from the operation Of the rule in special cases.
But this provision, to be Of any practical value,
would necessitate the suspension Of the ''short-
haul' clause much more frequently than it's en-
forcement.

ALUMINIUM AND ITS USES.
1t Promises to Greatly Change the Applica-
tion of Metals to the Arts.

Aluminium, a most valuable metal, has hereto
fore had but a limited use owing to the difficulty
Of its production and the consequent high price
at which 1t was held; but a new process, discov-
cred by +. j. Seymour, Of Findlay, o.. by which
it can be produced at a comparatively cheap
price, has turned the attention of the entire
scientific world to this metal, which can now,
under these new conditions. be employed in an
almost infinite number of things of everyday
utility.
'The old process" said DR.. ]. W. Smith. of
Detroit, to a Journal reporter, ''of extracting
aluminium out of aluminous earths was very
expensive. requiring three pounds of metallic
sodium to reduce one pound Of aluminium.
Metallic sodium is worth SO a pound. The re-
ducing agent used by the new process is zinc
ore. which costs about three-quarters of a cent
a pound. We can now make aluminium so
cheaply that it can be used in the arts and by
mechanics for general use. The time is not far
distant when not o pound Of steel or iron will
be made without it"
The Doctor here showed a number of ingots
containing varying amounts of aluminium. One

~sistance to oxidation and its extreme lightness.
it's specific gravity being only &c. One of these
ingots. containing 10 Der cent. of aluminium and
10 per cent. of copper. is of the color Of pale
gold, and called aluminium bronze. It is
claimed to be stronger than steel-in fact. that
it will stand 40, 600 pounds more tensile strain to
the inch than steel. This metal, which will not
corrode, Is used for jswelry and watch-cases.
Another ingot, with q different alloy, is called
white metal" and Is intended to take the place
Of silver. Gas fumes aud sulphur do not tar
nish it, and it ia to be used for tableware and
many other purposes. Still another ingot is
composed of SO parts of tin and IL parts of alu
minum. 1t Is claimed that this metal, which is
whiter than nickel. m axes o fine substitute for
silver, and 10 in many respects superior to it.

cussion of Miss Domains paper by r. l.. Hamii-
ton, superintendent Of the Anderson schools,
who was followed by w. O. Warrick, superin-

Commissioners George r. Blanchard has sent

adopted at the last meeting of this association,
directing me to take the vote by ballot of the
roads in the territory west of the trunk lines
and east of Chicago and st. Louis upon the ab-
clifton OF commissions from Jan. ], / take pleas

of which the circular was sent, nine announced
that they were not now paying commissions.
fifty voted yes provided their competitors in
their districts did the same, the latter being
supported in this view by the resolution direct
ing the vote to be taken. Sixteen have not yet
sent their votes. and one voted no. Nearly all
of the sixteen lines that have not yet voted are
consulting with competitors or connections in re-
gard oft, and will give US their votes a little
later.

miles or less, and over 200 miles. Whatever cuts
Western roads may make, the sums specified

Judge Cooley Ordered to Take Possession.
ST.. LOUIS, Dec. &c. -Attorneys for the pur-
chasing committee of the Wabash lines pre-
sented their petition to the United States Court
to-day, praying the court tc turn over to them
the property. Judge Brewer passed upon the
petition, and at the same time gave instructions
to Receivers Tut and Humphreys. He ordered
that all the books of account of the roads under
the new receiver be turned over to Judge Cooley,
but that the present receivers retain in their
possession all the general books, but give Judge
Cooley all facilities for examining them. He
also ordered that they retain all money now on
hand, surrender all rolling stock covered by
mortgages, and report to this court any disputes
which may grow out of such delivery, and that
there shall be no dismissal of any parties now in
the employ of the road. The purchasing COM
mittee was ordered to pay to the courts 81, 600.
600, the remainder of the purchase money due
on the original bargain, and Judge Treat said
that all property bought by them would then be
| turned over to them.
Judge Gresham, this afternoon, refused to
| grant the petition to turn over the Chicago IL
st. Louis branch Of the Wabash road to the
| purchasing committee, and entered an order d.
recting Judge Cooley to assume control Of the
lines east of the Mississippi river Dec. 81.
Under an order issued by Judge Brewer, the
operation of the following lines will be aban-
6oned, unless the receivers ere guaranteed
against loss: The Eel River railroad, the De-
troit, Butler b St. Louis railroad, the Attica,
s. Northwestern railroad. the Peoria,
Pekin e Jacksonville railroad, the
Pike County railroad, the Champaign &
Southeastern railroad and the Madison County
railroad. The rolling stock ordered to be turned
! over to Judge Cooley will not, 1t is said, be
