He is Captured With Dimculfy In South

NEW YORK, July 24.-This dispatch
reached police headquarters tonight:
LIMA, July "a
Inspector Byrnes, New York:
Prisoner escaped at Iquique Friday. Re-
arrest impossible. Instruct U. s. Minister at
Lima. REILLY.
The prisoner is VIM. A. Bushnell, alias
Gerald F. Hanson, the absconding book
keeper Of Butler, Stillman & Hubbard, who
was arrested at Santiago, Chilli, last Sep
tember, by Detective Reilly, of this city,
and who was on his way back here in Reilly's
custody Ten years ago he hypothecated
securities valued at $35, 900 belonging to the
above-named law firm and fled. Then
under the name of Hansom he was ap-
pointed agent of the United States West
Coast Telephone Company in Santiago,
where he moved in the best society. In 1887
he embezzled S18, 900, but he was so popular
there that no jury would convict him. 1t
was then found that Bushnell and Hanson
were the same person, and Inspector Byrnes
had him arrested on the first charge. 1t was
with great difficulty he was extradited.

Asked n Part Of the Surplus.


Asked n Part of the Surplus
WASHINGTON, July 24.-Assistant Sec
retary Bussey has rendered decision in the
case of John Seifert, late of Company A,
Forty-ninth Indiana Volunteers, who
moved for reconsideration of former de-
cIsion rejecting his claim to an invalid PEN
sion. The testimony upon which the As
sistant Secretary appears to rely, concern
ing the cause and circumstances attending
the incurrence of the disability are substan-
TALLY as follows:
The captain of claimants company and three
others had rented for VIE night the back room
of a saloon, and were engaged IN playing cards
when three citizens of the town entered and
began playing on banjo and one or two other
instruments. This disturbed the play and the
captain, speaking to his comrades, among whom
was the claimant, who had just entered, said:
"Boys, let's put them out" At that all arose
and the intruGers moved toward the door, all
except one man named Bishop. who fingered.
The claimant put his hand on Bishops shoul-
der and then Bishop moved out AS he passed,
claimant turned his back, and as he did so
Bishop shot hun intiicting two wounds, on ac-
count of which he claims pension The claim
ant In hrs testimony AYERS that he was in the
room in obedience to his captains orders, and
that the part he took in ejecting the intruders
was also in obedience to his commands.
The Assistant Secretary decides that the
captains order was not within the line of
duty, was an order to commit breach CT
peace, and the claimant was not justified in
obeying it any more than he would have
been justified in doing any other unlawful
act. His being in the saloon was a viola
tion OF rules of discipline. The application
is denied

Manager Phillips After More Young Blood
speer May Sign To- Morrow.

speer May Sign To- Morrow.
Manager Phillips will start out on another
hunt for players to-day his territory being
Ohio. He will not be home until tomorrow.
when he and President Nimick will have a con-
ference with Speer, the promising local
catcher. Speer met Mr.. Nimick yesterday
afternoon, and after an exchange of opinions
it was agreed to make no definite arrangements
until tomorrow morning. when Manager
Phillips will be home.
AS stated in yesterdays DISPATCH. the club
officials are still on the lookout for more new
players, and it is surmised that Manager Phil
lips mission to-day is to try and secure a
pitcher. Every effort is to be made to get one
or two good pithers, and the club is prepared
TO keep on making experiments until good
evening, President Nimick said:
I'VE are not dOwnhearted by any means,
although luck has been against us. We are
prepared to put up the cash for good men, but
rs to who we are after L m not prepared TO say.
i would have liked to have signed Gilliland,
but Philadelphia has secured him However, 1
am confident that we have gotten a good
pitcher in Sowders. Boston did not sell him
because he was no good. He was dissatisfied,
and the club took big price for him. / can
assure the public that l paid big sum for
him."
"Are you going to release any pitchers?''
"Well, would rather not make a statement
on that question. At any rate, may say that
the directors will settle that matter"
1t is-definitely understood that one or two
pitchers of the team. and one Of them an old
one, will be dispensed with at the end of the
season. When interrogated definitely on the
matter, MIR. Nimick merely said that the d.
rectors would settle the question.
Sowders will pitch to-day and Manager
Phillips writes that he is in firstcass condition
The true cause of his dissatisfaction with Bos-
ton was learned yesterday. When Boston got
Sowders from 81 Paul they gave him q salary
of 5000 and bonus of 500. For this season.

Minneapolis Insists That II is Bigger Than
GS DcuI

Minneap polls Insists That II is Bigger Than
St. Paul.
That the jealousy between St. Paul and
Minneapolis, so often humorousiy alluded
to by the press of this country, is based on
actual fact, is evidenced by the following
telegram, which explains itself:
MINNEAPoLIs. July "a, 1889
To The Pittsburg Dispatch:
As sensational kilograms have been sent to
the leading papers Of the country by an ir-
responsible st. Paul correspondent concerning
the directories for 1889 for Minneapolis and st.
Paul, 1 desire to ask these same papers which
have published the falsehood from st. Paul to
publish the truth from Minneapolis, which
sendprepaid.
The directory of ST. Paul was issued on the
18th inst. 1t contained 1900 names. an in
crease of over 1900 over 1883 Tho Minneapo-
lis directory was issued tonight and contains
$1,000 names, an increase of nearly $500 over
the Stale census of 1885, st. Paul has 1S5.000
population. By the same multiple Minneapolis
contains $4,000 people, showing Minnie
apclis to be in the lead by 5000
people. This directory estimate is confirmed
by other statistics Minneapolis cast 80, 100
votes for President in November. 1888, while
st. Paul cast but 260 600. Minneapolis has 10, 900
school children enrolled upon her books,
while St. Paul has but $1,000
