WAR IN MANCHESTER.


An Associated Press despatch says:
Umpire Mullen, against whom there has
been so much said in other New England
cites, paid his first visit to Manchester. in an
official capacity. today, and has done more to
kill the interest in the game than dozen
defeats Of the home club could possibly have
done. His umpiring was the most brainless,
partisan and wicked Of any ever seen here,
and there has been some pretty rank exhi-
bitions In years gone by He refused to give
put outs at the home plate and on Ibases, and
was outrageous on balls and strikes. When
McDermott was pitching he addressed inde-
cent language to him and applied foul cpl
thets TO the home players. Clinton was
fined $40 and Scheffler S5, and the spectators
became greatly excited. Mullen had one OF
them elected for demonstrations against MIN.
At the close Of the game, and when MS Jurls-
diction was over, S5heffler slapped his face,
and but for police protection he would
have suffered severely from the crowd
Manager Clinton preferred charges against
him for inpudent conduct on the ball held,
and Mullen made out a complaint against
Scheffier for assault"
The game resulted as follows:

Bond allowed Meister first on a grounder,

to second on Flanagan's being hit by

Settling with Morocco.

Exactly how a private communication
from Prince Bismarck induced the eccentric
monarch of Morocco to come to terms in the
Rabat affair is not wholly clear. Germany
has been able to quietly acquire good deal
of influence in Morocco, partly because she
is recognized to lie the confirmed antagonist
OF France, whose Aold on Algeria keeps the
Sultan suspicious of French encroachments
upon his own domains Morocco has also
good reason to fear Spanish coyetousness,
and hence the Carolines dispute between
Spain and Germany gave the latter still
stronger hold on the turbaned magnates OF
Morocco. The Moorish ministers of war and
state once visited Berlin to study the Ger
man army system and consult with the
Chancellor, and took an autograph letter
from the Sultan to old Emperor William
Thus on several accounts it is seen to be
quite credible that Bismarck really did in
terfere.in our own little affair; and it is also
possiblethat his advice was secretly asked

The State department would have been in
