BOSTON, Dec. 5.-MaiI advices re-
ceived by reliable persons in this city
from Canton, China. today give de-
tails of an attempt to capture the city
of Canton by a secret organization for
the purpose of establishing an indie
pendent government. The writer
says:
The plot was exposed Oct. %, when
the attention of the United States con-
sui was called to suspicious telegram
from a Hong Kong firm to it's branch
in Canton, concerning shipments Of
certain packages. The authorities were
notified and the packages, which
proved to be five barrels of pistols and
ammunition, labelled cement were
seized on their arrival. On the same
steamer from Hong Kong came 400
men, who expected to aid in the revolt.
The officials. however, captured 70 of
them. The reVolutionists had no Wea-
pons, but it is learned that they were
to be supplied by friends in this city.
The seizure of arms and the capture
of those implicated completely thwart-
ed the attempt, and the authorities
are now making diligent search for the
leader as well as for more Wearons.
1t is said there are thousands in sym
pathy with the movement The Hong
Kong papers speak of it as a patriotic
movement and worthy of support.
The plan of the organization. which
originated in Hong Kong and was
taken up in Canton, was first to cap
ture the city treasury; next to demol-
ish the viceroy's palace. BY this time
they would expect sufficient aid to
storm the city and to take measures, To
hold the city.
The movement has involved the
Christians to a considerable extent and
great excitement prevails, especially
inside the city near a chapel which
had been used, unknown to the mis-
s1onaries, as a sort of rendezvous for
some of the conspirators.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-The report
of the treasury auditor on the short
ages of Mr.. Spofford, librarian of Con-
gress, has been delivered to the presi-
dent 1t is understood Spofford has de-
posted from time to time amounts
found due with the exception of a COM
paratively small amount, about which
there is a difference of opinion. When
questioned whether the report dis
closed any wrong-doing on the part Of
Spofford beyond carelessness and an
extremely loose system of keeping ac-
counts, the treasury officials declined
to answer. saying the matter was en-
tirely in the hands of the president.

on the policy of the organization of

man Does Not Mince Matters.
DENVER, Dec. 5.-Hon. c. S.
Thomas, national Democratic commit
teeman from Colorado, expressed his
opinion regarding the presidents mes
sage today as follows:
ON foreign affairs the president is
Democratic, and, therefore, right. His
attitude is that of the vast body of his
countrymen. On fiscal affairs he is
consistent with his past, but so radi-
callY ard viciously wrong that none
save the Wall street interests can re-
gard it otherwise than as the express
sion of an obstinate man, whose theory
is that he must be right and, therefore,
everybody else must be wrong His
party platform and traditions are
thrown overheard, and the ultra rad
icalism of the Sherman school of
finance is Internationally approved
and recommended. He may succeed
in securing its adoption, but only
through the destruction of the De-
mOcracV"

The Lincoln Tennis Club has added
several new members during the past
week and prospects are bright for a very
successful season. Geisthardt is rapidly
approa ching championship form, Will g,
Haggard and Garfield are keeping the
''old man" very busy. There is gen.
eral regret that Fred Shepherd will not
enter the coming tournament. He is
one of the very strongest players. Will
Owen Jones is playing very swift game
this season with remarkable improve
ment over his "a play. He is young,
ambitious and full of life and should
mature into very strong player.
The university of Nebraska tourn-
ament has just ended, resulting in the
final victory Of G. A. Loveland, who has
rapidly become one of the best players in
city. He will enter the state tourn-
ament in June az will several other
university boys. Tennis is booming at
university, this year as never before and
with the new grounds anticipated by
them for another season their club
should take high rank among those Of
the west. Messre Stone and Troyer of
the university club are only playing in
their second season but are showing
much promise. The latter contested

THE NATIONALS GAME.

The Lincoln team blew in from the
west to-day. They are all little dumpy
fellows who look as though they had
been swiped on the head with hammer
in the mewing days Of their youth and
had never recovered from the shock.
There are one or two exceptions to this
rule, but when the players first got of
the train the spectators couldn't see
them at all. Everybody was looking
high in the air for the classic features
OF the gladiators who were burdened
with such high averages in the race,
and it was hard to come down so near
earth. Among the notables in the Lin
coin aggregation, or aggravation as the
case may be, is Gragg, the pitcher. who
used to be roasted in Rockford until he
would have to put his spikes in the
ground and clinch 'em on the other side
to keep from sailing into the bleachers
He will probably be treated with the
respect his beauty deserves this trip,
however, as he is one of the twirlers
who downed the Rockfords on the &C.
casion of the visit Of the home team to
the headquarters OF the relief committee
in Nebrasky. The other players are
said to be good filling, and Rockford
should not have much difficulty in max
ing three square meals off them.-Rock
ford Register Gazette.
The base ball field is the last place in
the world to look for religious strife,
says a brother in the Cincinnati
Enquirer. However, rumor has it that
the present trouble among the Boston
players is due TO the difference in
ax-so hA H0h hot
Tommie Mccarthy and Pitcher Stivetts
in the dining room OF the Louisville
hotel is said to be incidental to
religious discussion between some OF
the players. For over two years there
has been trouble between the Boston
players on this score. Duffy. Mccarthy,
and Tucker are arrayed against Stivetts,
Long and Lowe. Some OF the others
have also taken sides. Staley and Cliff
Carroll when they were with the team
also had trouble. 1t is queer that ball
players can't get along together with
out auarreling about their difference in
faith. 1t is probably the first time in
the history Of the game that religion
has caused a disruption in base ball
team.
An evening paper gives Manager
Ebright OF the Lincolns, an undeserved
aoast for his so called clownish actions
in the ball game Friday, Mr.. Ebright
need have no fear that he did anything
to injure the sport in Rockford. No one
thinks he did either. He had perfect
right to cut up all the monkey shines he
pleased. The same by Rockford play
er would have been pronounced very
funny. Mr.. Ebright won the opening
game here before crowd Of $500 peo-
pie and he had right to feel good-to
stand on his head if he wished. His big
hit won the game and he made the
prettiest pickup OF the day.-Quincy

Gussie Alberts called down the wrath
OF every lover of respectable ball playing
