SIOUX CITY, To-, April 23.-The old
maxim about the long lane that has no
turn has been a great deal of conSola-
ton to the Sioux City base ball team
and its enthuniastic admirers during
the past week, and tonight, after hav-
lug vanquished the aggregation of
wagon-tongue wielders from the North
i'll a well-played game, the local players
and their friends are in high glee. The
lowering clouds of the forenoon and
sharp dash of rain at midday did not
give promise of sport, but later the sun
came through the clouds and the
afternoon was pleasant. A good
sized crowd rode to the park, and as
st. Paul had won so easily two
games of the initial series of the sea-
son there were no anxious betterS in
favor of the Corn Huskers in to-day's
game. Manager Powell has had his
men at work practicing every avail
able hour since Sunday, and said when
he started out that he believed the boys
had struck their gait and would be able
to get the game. In this feeling the
players joined, although they were not
loud in their Boosting. The first inning
was without special feature, but in the
second Bradley made bad throw and
allowed three st. Paul men to trot
around the path and across the home
plate with very little difficulty. Mains
started in to pitch for the visitors, and
for seven innings
DID HIS BEST
and in fact did pretty well, but Man
ager Barnes thought he could improve
on it, and put Sowders in the box for
the remainder of the game. The Sioux
City players had apparently got some
muscle on them in the two days since
Sunday and did some heavy hitting,
but we're not equal to their opponents.
Their fielding, however, was splendid,
and to this and the really meritorious
work of Siebel i'll the box they can
credit today'S victory. A surprie to
everybody was the way in which Siebel
put Tredway to sleep, tanning that
heavy hitter four times out of five strike
outs credited to him. Reilley scored
two errors early that were expensive,
but Broughton, Carroll and Werrick
did as pretty playing as was ever seen
anywhere. Cline, of the local team,
made two catches of foul flies
in right that were very pretty and
helped along his rapidly rising reputa-
ton. Everybody in the home team
played good ball. 1t was remarked
that, if he continued to improve, in an
other year Tredway will rank with Tip
O'Neil, of the st. Louis Browns, as a
fielder and batter. Manager Barnes,
while. of course, claiming the best bunch
of players in the association, said:
"Sioux City has as good fielding nine
as there is in the association. L don't
think they are as hard hitterS as the st.
Paul men, but the infeld is like stone
wall, and the Cutfeld takes everything
it can lay its hands On.' The local
team will practice tomorrow and then
tackle Minneapolis for series of three
games. The score follows:

macon" on Cardifrs Prospects
on Friday Night.

On Friday night Peter Jackson and
Patsy Cardiff will meet before the Cali
fornia Athletic club of San Francisco,
says "Macon" in the Cincinnati En-
quirer. During the past week Cardiff's
confidence in himself seems to have
made an impression on the Occidentals,
as they are no longer Offering the
ridiculous odds they were giving
on jackson. The chapter of acct
dents has so much to do with de-
Gliding prize battles that it is seldom
safe to offer two to one on any man i'll
advance. 1t may be that Jackson will
have walkover with Patsy, but it is
also possible that he may fine him
more troublesome customer than he an
tIcipates. Sheedy says that he is the
strongest man he ever saw go against
Sullivan, and though Peter may be as
his friends declare, a black Jem
him being as skillful as Sal
livan, and he certainly has
never shown anything like the big fell
lows hitting power. 1t will be remem
bered that Carditf's ducking and run
ming away bothered Sullivan a good
deal, and was the cause of him breaking
his arm on Patsy's hard head. Jackson
is said to have wonderful left, and
should be able to jab Cardiff with it at
long range. If he can he should win
without trouble; but if he has to mix
the fighting up with Patsy at short
range he may find that the latter belongs
to the superior race"

LoNsDALE's JOURNEY.
Says He Was Not Looking For the
North Pole.

North Pole.
SAN FRANCISCO. April 23.-Lord
Lonsdale arrived here to-day on
the steamer Bertha from Kodiak
island, Alaska. He states that
after leaving Winnipeg he travelled on
sleds drawn by dogs, his only white
companion being William Mexican,
cook in the employ of the Hudson Bay
co mpany. In August, 1883, he reached
Melville island. This was his farthest
point north. Thence he started across
Alaska to the nearest point on the
Yukon river, after reaching which he
followed the river nearly all the way.
He had with him eighty-nine dogs and
eighteen Indians, but during the
journey all but twenty-eight
of the dogs died and several
indians were nearly frozen to
death. Lonsdale was oblighed to walk
over l 500 miles of the Journey across
Alaska, owing to the depth of snow,
which made it impossible for the dogs
to draw anything more than the sleds
with the provisions on them, and
some rich specimens. On Nov. 10,
1883. he reached the Russian mission on
the Y ukon river. From there he went
across to Neshagak river, thence to
Bristol bay, arriving at. Katma on
Jan. II, 1889. Owing to the
thickness of the ice the boat did
not arrive from Kodiak until March
II. He left Kodiak for this port about
a month ago. Lord LonSdale says his
object was not to find the North pole as
has been stated, but to explore the
islands in the Arctic ocean, and study
the birds and animals found there. He
will stay a few weeks in this city and
then go to New York by way of Winni-
peg.

MUST MOVE ON.
The Polo Grounds Will Soon Be a
Ball Field No Longer

New YORK, April 23.-The New York
Base Ball club is homeless. Gov. Hill
to-day vetoed the bill recently passed
by the legislature to prevent the cutting
of streets through the polo grounds.
The struggle between the property
holders in the vicinity of the polo
grounds and the friends of base ball has
been going on for about two years, and
the lovers of sport have so far been able
to prevent the cutting up of the grounds
of the New York club, but the action of
the governor today ends the struggle
and the property holders are finally
victorious. The managers of the New
York club felt sure that they could pre-
vent the destruction of the grounds and
accordingly have made no arrange
ments looking to new grounds. They
have the choice between Staten Island
and JERSEY flats

SHE SAW SNAKES.
Mrs. Carter's Maid Gives Some
Interesting Testimony.

CHICAGO, April 22.-The Carter di-
vorce case was resumed this morning.
with big crowd in attendance. Susan
Peterson, Mrs. Carriers maid, on redi-
rect examination, testified that Mrs
Carter took choral while in Europe, and
that much of the time she considered
her insane. ''She saw snakes and
things and heard knocks" said the
maid. On the cross-eXamination by Mr..
Walker the chief point brought out was
that when Mrs. Carter left London for
America, i'll and insane, Susan had not
written to Mrs. Dudley or Mr.. Carter of
her coming. This was the time when
letters were left in London to be mailed
to America Mrs. Dudley, Mrs. Carriers
mother, then took the stand and testified
to cruel treatment of her daughter by
Mr.. Carter.

Accidental Collision of Cavalry
Troops at Fort Myer.

WASHINGTON, April 23.-On Monday
afternoon, as the battalion of cavalry
stationed at Fort Myer was go
ing through some evolutions, the
platoon of one of the COM
panies misunderstood an order
and came charging down on the first
platoon at full gallop. Before the lat
ter could escape the rear section was
upon it, and in second both platoons
were mingled in almost ineXtricable
confusion. Horses and riders were
Overthrown one after another, and
to add to the confusion the
horses became unmanageable. Quickly,
however. the orders of the officers rose
above the din, and after some few min
utes Of hard work order was restored
and it was found that an officer, soldier
and horse had suffered. The officer,
Lieut.. Reahard, was slightly, and the
soldier, Private Crane, severely wound
ed, while the horse was killed outright.

A California Bank Robber Quick.
ly Captured.

VENTURA, Cal, April 23.-To-day
at noon bold attempt at bank
robbery was made by man
named Mccarthy, who was
recently discharged from the county
hospital. He entered Collins & Sons
bank while the cashier, Collins, was
gone to lunch, leaving Jack Morrison
alone. Mccarthy entered and COM
planned of his poverty and despera-
ton which had driven him to think of
suicide. He laid package on the
counter, which he said was dynamite,
and drew siX-shooter and de-
manded $4,000. Morrison lodged
behind the counter and ran out
of the back door. The robber then
seized a tray containing about $4,000
and walked into the stIeet. Morrison
gave the alarm and the people gathered
OH the street, but no one was armed.
The thief had horse hitched near
the bank and was making for that.
The sheriff happened to be near, but
was without firearms. He stepped into
hardware store and seized shotgun,
when the robber suddenly surrendered.
The money was all recovered except
$50, which was probably lost on the
street.

Every Quarter Section Taken--A
Wild Time at Guthrie.


ST. LOUIS. Mo-, April ga special
to the Republic from Purcell, 1. T., says:
Advices from every part of the ter
ritory of Oklahoma Indicate that every
available quarter section of land is al
ready taken along the line of the
Atchison railroad and on the stage
trails which run from Guthrie to King
fisher. and from Oklahoma to
Fort Reno. The occupants of the soil
have taken possession of their claims
erecting rude log cabins or
frame structures. The Kingfsher
land Office was opened to-day, and the
entries are reported to have been more
numerous than they were at Guthrie.
The country is beginning to wear set
tied look, and, although the appearance
of things is rude, it is evidence
of the fact that the crisis is
practically over, and that out of the
rush and strife and bitterness of years
the country has been settled with less
sacrifice than has always been
feared and predicted. The reports
of murders by claim jumpers are uncon-
frmed, or rather they prove to be with
ises to become typical new frontier
town, and will, it is feared. pass through
the same reign of terror which
seems to be necessary in the ex-
lstence of every city of phenomenal
growth. As indicated in these dis
patches, there was a vicious element
in the great population with
which it began its municipal life.
Thugs and pug-uglies and that species
of the flash sports" who make new
and rapidly-growing communities their
field of operation. were with the first
crowd which entered the city, and
numbers with each incoming train.
Guthrie is in great need of a perfection
of her municipal government. There
is now collected a population of
$4,000 or 10000 souls, and among
them are large percentage of
the criminal and vicious classes.
The long platform at the depot is packed
with humanity at the arrival of every
train. The crowd surges over the
tracks and fills the space OH the oppo-
site side of the coaches. 1t in

of Pinkerton'S detectives have been
employed, but all they can do is to

No arrests have been made, and crooks
who choose to remain there can do so at
