money. Miss Brewer. who is about TWEEN
ty-four years old, tall and dark. Is the
mother Of fine-looking girl.
According to the testimony OF Whit
lock and Miss Brewer were regular
attendants at the Hanson Place M. f..
Church. One Sunday night In Dec. 1889,
the pastor preached a sermon on So
liability. and urged his hearers to shake
hands with one another after the services
and become acquainted.
After the services that night Whitlock
and Miss Brewer met in the lobby and
shook hands. They met each other on
the street the following day and the
next Sunday he accompanied her home.
They became very friendly. and Miss
Brewer says that on March l6, 1890,

cruise on the school ship st. Mary's,
and during his absence he wrote several
letters to Miss Brewer.

stunned his visits. Soon after that, she
declares, he succeeded In overcoming
her scruples.
In March, 1891, she says her mother
discovered her condition and visited AS
sistant Pastor John j. Faust and laid
the facts before him. The result OF the
conference was that n scheme was
evolved to get Whitlock to marry the

Whitlock said he was too confused and
pleaded for time to consult his mother.
The clergyman, he says. barred his pas
sage, and repeated his requests to mar
ry the girl.
The Clergyman denies that he used
force, but Whitlock says he had to es-
cape by another door.
The case was not concluded. Whit
locks story will be heard when the ex-
animation Is resumed Sept. 20.

BULLS IN CONTROL AGAIN. STAGE NEWS AND GOSSIP,
Prices for Stocks Run Higher at
the Opening.
The Industrials Continue to BE
Weak, However.

A strong tone chara cterized specula-
ton this morning, and higher prices
were the rule Not only did the bulls
control the situation. but they brought
about the advance on a comparatively
light volume of transactions.
The shorts were alarmed, and when
they rushed in to cover they found the
market almost bare of stocks. The
latest bear fizzle, in the case Of the APP
plication to the court for a receiver for
Chicago Gas, has reacted on that con-
tingent, and the shorts are in a bad fix.
The enormous sale of silks at auc-
ton, and the success attending the
same. Is regarded as a harbinger OF
better times in commercial circles. and
adds to the bullish feeling. Rock Island

bacco from 102 to 1903, Burlington from

BASEBALL CHAT.

The Giants met defeat at Pittsburg
yesterday when victory was counted on
by almost everybody. New York played
ragged ball, and Rusie lost his first game
of the Western tour after his almost SUI
perhuman efforts of the day before. In
the midst of deprecatory comment urged
by the Importance of the defeat, little
heed has been taken OF the circum-
stances. Wards men were put to
strain during the four games at Chicago
which rarely falls TO the lot of a baseball
team. Everything was against them,
but the games were won in spite OF
jeers, rough play. buldozing and other
drawbacks. Hardly had the last game
been won before the whole team was
bundled, unstrung nerves and all, into a
railroad train to take the field at Pitts
burg without chance to recover. The
team was certainly out of form yester-
day, and there was every reason for it.
The story, OF a new League was
printed exclusively In The Evening
was outlined in the announcement. The
scheme seems to be to include two
Eastern League. one or two Western
League and four good-paying National
so its promoters assert, is not to antag-
onize dates of the present clubs, but
to offer 25-cent baseball on the open
dates. The scheme smacks of the same
flavor as the now defunct Brotherhood,
and additional coloring Us lent to that
opinion by the fact that disgruntled
| players are concerned in the manage
ment, and that an attempt will probably
be made to recruit the playing ranks
from the League men who are now
''benched" and are chatting under the
