IPSWICH, Mass, Oct. 1.-Who IL "Jack

dressed In dark clothes, has haunted tbs
residence Of Captain Weymouth on High
street He has also played his pranks on
several other residents on that same
street. So thoroughly alarmed are the
citizenssthat they are out hunting foi
him every evening. Should he be caught
by the citizens he will be treated to good
coat Of tar and feathers.
Jack the Tdpper' operates after the
town has been clou ded In almost tota
darkness nights. He then proceeds TO tap
on the windows, aud thus succeeds iu
frightening the inmates. Friday evening
Captain Weymouth was escorting his
daughter home from the store when the
unknown came upon them. The mis-
creant fired stones at them, one hittina
Miss Weymouth and another struck the
captain In the back.
Later In the evening he fired stone
through the window of John ID. Harris
house on Winter street, and it hit Miss
Harris on the bip. he was seen peepina
into the window of the house after he
threw the stone. When the inmates made
move to give chase he ran away like
deer.
The local police have tried to capture
him, but he is wary aud keeps out Of the
way when there Is danger. He has not 90

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2-The ninth week
OF the present session of congress begun
today, and the result of the work so fan
accomplished cannot be said tc
be encouraging to persons who hao
hoped for a speedy adjustment Of the great
national question which caused the issu,
OF the call for the special session. The
present outlook is towards continuation
OF the debate which has been in progress
for the last five weeks in the sonata. Ths
renewed talk of compromise Legislation
however, gives the impression In some
quarters that the end may be near
The list OF speakers has not been com
pleted for this week. and ii may be as
sumed that when it Is, the names of few
repeal senators win appear upon It, and
the debate will BE- left almost altogether
TO the silver men. Three Of these-Tellcr,
George and Morgan-nre entitled 10 the
floor at any time to conclude speeches
which they have begun, but not finished.
Mr.. Call Of Florida has s..-.1ified a desire
to address the senate, but This is the only
new speech formally announced.
The weeks business in the house will
be confined, so far as can be stated, to .
continuance OF the debate on the election
bill, under the order which will exhaust
itself on the 10th inst. The debate as far
ne II has progressed has failed to develop
any Of that intensity Of partisan feeling so
freely predicted Of it.

able Figure In the Game. However
ought to Form state League.

BOSTON, Ocs. 2-The baseball season Of
1893 is ut an end, end the Hnal standing of
the l2 National League teams Is given be-
low.
Boston had so much of lead when she
went on the last western trip that the
championship was practically won. The
two victories in Pittsburg and Cleveland
made the matter certainty, and the team
has taken things very easy since that time.
The final result shows that Boston leads
the second team-Pittsburg--f games
and 40 points.
Cincinnati claims forfeited game from
Washington, and it is so credited, though
Il may eventually be thrown out.
President Young says that every penny
of the $4,000 debt assumed by the Ma
tional League on the amalgamation Of the
American Association has been paid In
full, and he has in his possession every one
Of the outstanding notes properly cancelled
and marked paid. This. Mr.. Young
thinks, is one Of the cleverest pieces Of
financial work ever accomplished by an
organization whose treasury was depleted
in 1892, but whose faith, honor and pledge
was bond made to be fulfilled.
Money Came In Fast.
In regard TO the Improvement of the
finances of 1898 rs compared with 1892,
President Young was unable to give ex-
actly the figures, nor could he without
breaking faith with the League, as he is
under obligations not to divulge any
figures until he makes a report to the or
ganixation MS n whole.
This much you can say" said President
Young, "the season now nearly closed has
been a grand one financially for the
League, for every CLUB has shown de-
cided improvement over last season, aud
the consequence Is thai every one has a
balance to their credit The attendance
has far surpassed 1892"
This shows conclusively that the Ameri-
can people will support sport that they
know Is honest. The most noticei BILE In
creasc In attendance has been In New York,
which. according to President Young,
leads the clubs In point Of money taken In
at the gate. IL will be recalled that last
season New York was rank failure in
point Of attendance. only about $4,000
people attending the games during the
season, and that. too. with over 10000
people to draw from.
