BASEBALL MUSIC.
a New Opera with the National Game
fora Theme.


Yesterday morning the Marine Band
orchestra played over the music of Paul
Eaton's new baseball opera at the Marine
Barracks. The rehearsal developed some
strikingly original, lively and catchy airs,
which are likely to become popular,
Mr.. Eatons music was erchestrated by
Professor Sousa of the Marine Band, who
has the reputation of being the best
orchestrator in the country. In this in
stance he has eXcelled himself, the
orchestration being perfect. Professor
Sousa says Of the music that it is very
bright, indeed, and ought 10 make hit
a "two-bagger in faCt-and other con-
noisseurs who have heard it concur in the
opinion.
The story Of the opera deals with the
adventures of young eX college pitcher,
become professional, and gives an,oppor-
tunity for hits on current sporting events,
which has been largely improved.
Mr. Eaton Is a young Washngtonian,
connected with the War Department in
this city.

The situation in New Jersey.

Philadelphia American.
Amongst all the Northern States it has been
freely admitted that New Jersey was the most
doubtful for the Republicans. 1t never has
been, IN fact, anything else than a Democratic
State, the vote for General Grant ia 1872 being
altogether abnormal; and the distractions intro
duced by the prohibition movement have mads
further difficulties for Republican growth to
overcome. 1t now looks very uncertain what
the outcome Of the present contest in that State
will be. At the Newark city election, on Tues
day, the great break in the German
vote on the liquor issue, which had been appre-
hended, and on which the Democrats had been
building large hopes. apparently did not take
place. Last year the Democratic majority in
that city was 1906 vote for Mayor and this
year ION minor oficers. no Mayor being chosenl
il varies from Cog to 24S. This seems to indi-
cate that the disaffection amongst the German
Republicans on account of the legislation to re-
strict the eale of liquor, hes spent its force: If SO,
1t materially reduces the prospect that the Dem
ocrats can hold the State. 4 new registration
in Jersey City and the surrounding towns, and
the prevention. in part at least. of Democratic
repeating" from New York city, will help the
Republicans materially. On the other hand,
there has bsen considerable friction between the
movements of General Sewel and Mr.. Phelps
looking to the United States senatorship, and it
il to be apprehended that this will DO mischiev-
Gus, instead of helpful.

Pittsburg's Suspended Back.

PITTsBURG, Oct. l6-The most sensational
phase of the Farmers and Mechanics Bank sus-
pension ia very likely to crystalline soon in the
arrest Of at least one person for misappropria-
ton of the banks funds. Nobody doubts now
that u large amount of money remains to be ac-
counted for. 1t may not be quite S2l6. 900. but
it is not far from it. The deficit in the funds
may prove to be even larger. The depositors,
even if the shortage is as much as $500. 900. are
amply secured. and Il is not probable they will
lose a cent. The probability of an arrest and
serious charges are freely discussed in certain
circles. A well-kuown stakeholder urged upon
the directors yesterday the necessity for imme-
date action. The wisdom OF such a move was
discussed, but il was decided TO take no imme-
diate action, go as to preclude the possibility of
making q mistake in the man.

An Old Question Revived.

LARAMrE CITY. Wyo, Oct l6.-In the Dis
trict Court of Albany, yesterday, manager
Black, of the Western Union, was fined 500
and committed to Jail for twenty-,our hours for
failure to produce certain kilograms as directed
by Judge Sapfiey. A few weeks ago Edward J..
Wagner, a clothier of Laramie, gave q bill of
sale on his stock to Charles Wagner, of St.
Louis, his brother. Several creditors then
served attachments on the ground that the
transfer had been made in order to defrand
them. Black, as manager of the Western
Union, was commanded to produce all the tele-
grams that had passed between the Wagpers,
but. upon the advice of Superintendent Dickey,
refused TO do so. Dickey last evening tele-
graphed Black to stand firm, as the company
proposed making a test case of it. In commit
ting Black Judge Sauiey said: I'VE will see
which has the greatest power, the Western
Union Telegraph Company or the Congress- of
the United States. Mr.. Clerk, enter up a fine
of 500 against Mr.. Black: and Mr.. Sheriff, COM
nit him to Jail until 10 o'clock tomorrow.
There is to be no parole about this business. but
be is to remaini in Jail until his fine is paid"
