MINNEAPOLIS PLAYS TODAY.
Fairer Weather Promised for the Base
ball Cranks.

The weather refused to let the Cincinnati
ball players get in a game here. and they
returned home at 3 O'Clock yesterday after
noon. There was not the slightest chance
to play the game. as when it was not rain
ing, hailing. or showing it was getting ready
to do something disagreeable. Better
weather is promised for to-day, however,
and the baseball portion Of the community
will have it's patience rewarded with a
struggle this afternoon between two teams
of the Western League, the only two, in
fact, that will come together during the
exhibition season. The Minneapolis play
ers. twelve in number, headed by Manager
Jack Barnes, came in from St. Louis yes
terday afternoon, and will play here this
afternoon and tomorrow. They say that
the weather at st. Louis was of the tough
order. their share OF the gate money Mon
day being limited to $l1, which represented
the contributions of a handful Of sturdy
supporters of the game, who had TO keep
moving up and down the bleachers and
stand to keep their blood in circulation.
All sections are catching this same stripe
everywhere for the baseball boys. The In
dianapoliS club will issue rain checks in
case a game is called before three innings
have been played. The Western Leagues
constitution provides that the number of
innings must be limited to three. Indian
apolis held out for five, but the club was
outvoted, and the three-inning provision
went through. Friday morning the Indian
apolis team goes to Cincinnati for three
games, beginning that afternoon and ending
Sunday. Monday and Tuesday next Pitts
burg comes along with Jack Glasscock,
whose name all ball fans in this great
HoOsier State revere. He will receive an
ovation sure enough.
The game to-day will be called at $50,
and the batting order will be as follows:
MISUNDERSTANDING m; Mills, 2;
Leidy, i; Graham, 3; Devinny, s; Gray, r;
Plock, l; Westlake, c; Mauck, D.
Minneapolis-Garry, m; Hines, 2; Hess. r.;
Mains, l; Burrell. c; Mcclure, s; Hulen, g.;
Corbett, |; Lincoln, d.
1t can be safely asserted that both teams
will play for blood, as these games will be
the only indication prior to the opening of
the Western League season, just two weeks
from to-day, of the relative strength of
any two teams.

THE ROCK ISLAND HOLD UP"
ONLY Two Robbers Escaped-The Other
Three Shot or Captured.

ENID, o. T., April 1O.-Particulars of the
Rock Island train hold up were learned
to-day. 1t occurred between Pond Creek
and Round Pond, at about 11:20 o'clock last
night. One of the would-be robbers is dead.
another captured and another seriously
wounded, while two escaped. The train was
in charge Of the conductor, Joe Reed, and
engineer Whitmyer. The train left Caldwell
about an hour late. The first stop was at
Pond Creek. and it was at that point the
robbers concealed themselves in the tender
of the engine. When just over Salt Fork
creek, about two miles from Round Pond.
where the pals" were stationed near the
track, an attempt was made TO hold up the
train. Guard Jacob Harmon, who was on
the train discovered the men before cross
ing the river, and he watched them to make
sure OF their purpose, and as they were
about to hold up the engineer and fireman
Harmon blaZed away with his Winchester.
The train slowed UP and the robbers jumped
off, but one ran only a few steps and
dropped dead. Their pals who were sta
toned on a break near the track, COM
menced firing, and literally perforated the
baggage car, and when it pulled into Enid
ii looked as though IL had been through a
musketry charge. Harmon and another
guard named Fawcett poured hot shot into
the four remaining robbers and drove them
off. A posse was sent out, and two horses
were caught that belonged TO the robbers.
When the citizens or Round Pond heard of
the hold up a large crowd turned out
and soon captured one of the robbers who.
il developed, had been hanging around
Round Pond for several days. The dead
robbers name is Pitts, a notorious des-
perado, who has been in several affairs of
this kind In the last two years.
When the firing commenced the passen-
gers of the train got down in the aisles
and not one was injured. The baggage and
express messengers had their cars strongly
barricaded. The dead robber, Pitts, was
taken 10 Pond Greek. IL Is believed that
the captured robbers name IL Morgan. The
sheriff of l. county has a strong guard
around him TO prevent lynching. A large
posse Is securing the country for miles
around. and II the other bandits are caught
they will be hanged or shot.

No Effort Yet Made to FOrcfbIy Get
Rid of the IndustriaIs.

OGDEN,SU. T., April 10.-Governor Waite,
of Colorado, wired General Kelly to-day
at Ogden that his industrial army could
stop and pass through Colorado. But Gov
ernor West, of Utah, notified Kelly that his
men would be forced to return West if
they refused to go of their own accord.
Kelly submitted the matter to his men.
who refused, with but one dissenting vote.
kelly's men said they knew what 1T would
be to tramp through the mountains and
great hardship if they could not ride. They
cheered Governor Waite and General,
Kelly who appears naturally conservative
and Is a good speaker. Encoura ging words
were received from General Kelly's wife.
Two thousand loaves of bread, one thousand
pounds of beef, potatoes, etc, were con-
tributed by the Ogden Charity Society and
everybody waited to see what Governor
West would do. The Governor and SUPER
intendent Knapp, Of the Southern Pacific,
had a series of interviews ending In Knapp's
refusing to haul the army back without
payment of $50 for each person, the regular
fare. Mr.. Knapp said If he attempted to
force the men back into the box cars they
would destroy railroad property but Gov
ernor West said he would attend to that.
Mr.. Knapp then sought inspiration from
General superintendent Wellmore, at San
Francisco, and was told the road would
see what could be done.
Mayor Brough, of Ogden, has ordered a
carload of provisions, enough to last the
army to the Nevada border. A number of
men are sick and suffering and one man has
died. The latter was identified by United
States Marshal Brigham as a recently dis
charged convict. Councils of war were held
at the City Hall In the afternoon and the
territorial officials seem to hesitate TO en-
force the courts orders. AT last accounts
the army was destined to remain all night
in Ogden, as the Southern Pacific people
aver they cannot find operatives to haul
the train West, but 1t is believed the rail-
road company is doing all il can TO defeat
Governor West. The men are proposing TO
seize a Union Pacific train and go East
any how. Several attempted TO escape from
camp, but were corralled by the militia and
put in jail.
A dispatch from Reno, New, says: The
Reno contingent of the industrial army
boarded an east-bound train here this morn
ing, climbing on top of the cars. They re-
fused to leave the cars when ordered. A
switch engine was then sent down to the
yards and coupled to the freight cars and.
before the commonwealerS knew what was
happening, the cars were detached from
the train and were speeding back west
ward. The passenger train then proceeded
and the switch engine subsequently brought
the freight cars and commonwealerS back
to town. The leaders claim they will ignore
the injunction of the Utah courts forbidding
the army to march into that Territory.
They say they will call it a heaven on
land army Of pilgrimage to Washington
and will claim the constitutional right of
performing their religious duty.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WABASH, Ind, April 10.-Before the end
of the present month John I. Hoover. a
farmer, residing south of this city. will be
in charge of the Wabash postoffice, Presi-
dent Cleveland having yesterday removed,
without any cause whatever, save that he
is a Republican, Wa w. Wood, who has
filed the office for two years. Mr.. Woods
term expires on Dee. 16, 1895, and 1t was
the expectation that he would be permitted
TO serve within a year of the period, but
local Democrats who supported Hoover al
the postoffice election in February, 1899,
have lately bestirred themselves to secure
Mr.. Woods removal. The choice of Hoover
was a disappointment to the vast majority
of Democratic patrons of the office, as Mr..
Wood has admittedly been the best post
master the city has ever had, and has not
in any sense been an offensive partisan.
Business men here deplore the change
bringing, as il does, into the postoffice a
man who is wholly without qualifications
to fill the position.
