GUILT OF STRIKERS
Cases on Trial at Fergus
Falls, Minn., Come to a
Sudden End.
THEY OBSTRUCTED THE MAILS.
One of Them Convicted and
the Others Then Change
Their Plea.

FERGUS FALLS, Mimi, April 49,
In the United States court Grant Ma
son of Barnesville was tried for OBJ
structing the mails during the Great
Northern strike last April. The testi-
mony was brief, and the jury found
him guilty. His conviction was fol.
lowed by the conspiracy case against
seven Barnesville men, and during its
progress the defendants all agreed to
plead guilty of obstructing the mails.
The conspiracy case was then stopped,
and Grant Mason, James f. Knowles,
Robert Nelson, Thomas Pender. Fred
H. Atkins, Charles Mallieux and Fred
Rath pleaded guilty. Judge Nelson ad.
dressed them briefly. He sentenced
each to pay a fine Of 800 and until the
fine was paid each to be committed tc
the Otter Tail county Jail. Sentence,
however, was .
Not to become Operative
till moved by the district attorney.
The effect Of this is to allow the men to
pay their fines in installments. Two
paid in full and the others paid half
and will pay the balance before Septem'
ber. The st. Cloud men, L. D. Foster
Paul Beadreau and William Broham
then plead guilty to obstructing the
mail. Judge Nelson sentenced them
to Jail in default of payment. There
are four cases against strikers al
Barnesville, four at St. Cloud and foul
at Breckenridge undisposed of. The
men will undoubtedly plead guilty at q
future term.

fsnecial TO The Times


New York, June 27.-One of the most
severe thunder storms of the year visited
this section yesterday, and the rain fell
so thick aud fast that the field at Eastern
Park, Brooklyn, was soon transformed into
a miniature lake.
When the rain subsided about l O'Clock
the water soon soaked into the ground,
but as the sun kept in seclusion all the day
there was little chance Of the ground drying,
and when the Washington team arrived
at the park about 800 the chances for a
game being played were not very favorable,
as the leadeu clouds which hovered in the
skies threatened at any moment to part
aud send forth another deluge.
TWO GAMES PROMISED.
Managers SchmelZ aud Foutz after con-
sultauon, decided to postpone the game
until tomorrow, when two games will be
played, the first beginning at O'Clock and
the second ten minutes after the first game
is ended.
Manager schmelz, in speaking of the
present makeup and condition of the
Washington team, said:
Il have no complaint regarding the men
on my team. They are putting up a good
game and we will yet make some OF the
leaders hustle. The boys are not hitting
the ball as they VIII later on. The pitchers
are doing very well, yet somehow or other
we fail to land on the winning side
Anderson, the pitcher whom / secured
from the Roanoke team, think will turn
out to be a clever man. He has plenty of
speed and he keeps his head about him.
GOOD 0UTFIELD WORK.
THE oUtfield has been doing some splen-
did fielding, and the infield is putting up a
fairly good game. Every time one of our
side makes an error it generally proves dis
astrous. III the boys pick up in their
| batting within the next few days we will
get along all right.
Il viii put Maui in to pitch in the first
game tomorrow, and either Stocksdale or
Malarky will go in the second game. / will
save Mercer for the Baltimore game on
| Saturday"

SKATES RAN IN THE MIRE
Alexander Island Track Was Gov
cred with Mud and Water.
EVENTS AND ENTRIES TAME
Official Timer Reported Very Fast
Time In the Third Race, Although
1t Is Likely He Was Mistaken-Sev-
eraI Dead 'Uns Were Around and
India Rubber Was the Worst.
The racing at the Island track yesterday

The racing at the Island track yesterday
was fairly clean for that place. The
events, however, were, with one or two
exceptions, tame and uninteresting, and al
though the fields were large the entries
as a whole were not the best class OF horses
at the track During the afternoon heavy
thunder storm came up and the wind and
rain played havoc with those who were
caught out in front of the storm. The
track was soon a sea of mud and water.
Notwithstanding this some very fast time
was made in the third race, the five fur
longs being run i'll 1:01 "a.
This, at least, was the time that was hung
out IL is hardly probable that it was cor
rect, however, as they have a habit OF
hanging out record breaking time every
once in a while. Either the course is
short or the official timer doesn't know MS
business, for it stands to reason that the
broken-down skates that race at the
Island track cannot break records.
WAS NOT TRYING.
There were several dead 'uns around,
but the only one that attracted much at
tention was India Rubber. He was so
generally known To be out for an airing that
the talent" steered clear of him. The
public not being lin the know, andknOwing
that he could win if he was meant" got
down on him heavily and had the pleasure
of seeing him canter in bad fifth
Hazel. Romeo, Free Press, and Tom
Finley all received heavy support in the
opening event, the latter being backed
from 20 TO l down 10 4 10 /. Free Press
showed the way out of the chute, where
a general cIosing-up took place. At the
end Tom Finley showed in front and man
aged to win in a hard drive by a head.
Irene was the hottest kind OF a good
thing in the second race, being played
from threes down TO 6 to 8. She ran as
if Just about one race short and finished
second TO Jews Harp.
SECOND CHOICE WON
Busirus and India Rubber were both
played in the third race, the latter closing
favOrite at twOs, with Busirus at II to

front till near the finish, where Busirus
passed him, and in hard drive landed the
race by q length.
The fourth event was simply a gallop
for Valkyrie, who led all the way and won
as she pleased by three lengths. TEalee

Departmental League Game.

Intense interest is centered in the game
that is to take place at National Park to-
day between the clubs from the District
Commissioners office and the Bureau of
Engraving and Printing. The Commission
ers have announced Eddie Fuller and
''Tubby' Dickinson as their battery, while
the Moneymakers will have Jack Oespada
and Beach to perform similar service. As
both of these clubs have won every game
they have played this season in the De-
partmental League series, the rivalry ex-
listing between them is very great, and in
consequence an exciting game is most
likely to occur. Every contest in which
these two crack clubs have participated
has been well attended. The game viii
