More Trouble.

MADISON, Wis, Aug. 9.-The supreme
court of Wisconsin assembled at noon to-.
day, and it is generally thought that
Attorney General D'Cormor will enter a
motion before the day is over on behalf
of G. E. Lamb of this city, petitoning the
court for leave to bring action in the name
OF the attorney general against the secre-
tary OF state to enjon him from executing
the apportionment law passed by the
recent special session of the legislature.
In case the attorney general refuses to
make the motion it may be made by the
petitioner himself. From the petition it
appears that the rule of equity of repre-
sentation required by the constitution has
been violated, and in some cases the
number of voters included in Repubi.
can district is more than twice as large as
the registered vote of districts that are
known to be Democratic. The petition
sets forth that in this way it is sought to
increase the number of Democrats in the
coming legislature, and to defrau,l the
Republican party OF its rightful represen-
tation. The supreme court OF this state
and that of Michigan having just been over
the same ground an early decision is
looked Tor. In case the decision goes
against the Democrats the Republican
of 1887 will 60 into effect.
The Democrats, in this case, will try to
have this law declared unconstitutional,
and to have the present Democratic body
hold oyer as the de facto legislature.

RUINED BY GAMBLING
Tho Southern League Exposed by W. {
Wilson, of This City

Tho Southern League Exposed by W. G.
Wilson, OF This City.
W. c. Wilson. of this city, who went to act
as umpire in the Southern League some
time ago, returned home yesterday thor
oughly disgusted with Southern baseball
patrons. He has had a rough time of it, and
during a conversation yesterday, said
Nobody has any idea of the kind of peo-
pie who patronize ball games in places like
Birmingham, Atlanta and Chattanooga.
There is always any amount of gambling
going on, and when q decision goes against
the tough element of the gamblers all they
think about is mobbing. They go all by
mobs down there. If man decides in favor
of the home team every time he is all right.
/ was told to do that, but absolutely re-
fused. In some cities the umpire is not
allowed to tell the police to do anything,
and the police, of course, favor the gam-
blers. Altogether the Southern League has
elements in it that are disgrace TO base
ball, and was glad to tender my resigna-
tion."
