CHICAGO CROOKS CAUGHT.

Much Wanted Criminals Thought to
Have Been Captured.
New York, Aug. 6.-During the trial OF
Otto Schaefer, alias big Otto," who Is
charged with burglary in General Sessions
yesterday, two men wer eseen to enter the
court room. whom the police recognized as
old time criminals.
One was Paul Seibert, alias Chicago
Paul, alias Charles Blum. The other was
Ernest Lash Detectives put the men under
arrest, They were taken to police head
quarters, where they were searched.
Nothing of any significance was found
on Lash, but in Paul's pockets were found
jewclry, money and other articles that
led the police to believe that he can throw
some lighs on the many Chicago robberies
that have been committed OF late and which
have puzzled the detectives all over the
country. Besides $445 in cash, gold
watch set with diamonds, a gold match
case and several other pieces of jewelry,
two keys were found for safe deposit
boxes in the vault of the Graham Safe
Deposit Company, of Chicago. The police
of Chicago were telegraphed and asked to
search the boxes.
The police also searched room in which
Seibert had been living on Eighth street
There pistol and some more jewelry was
found, besides evidence that Seibert has
recently been in Chicago.
The robberies in Chicago have been com
mitted by long and a short man, so the
detectives say, aud there is strong belief
that Seibert, who is very large, is the loug
man.

McKeever to Fight Green.


A dispatch from San Francisco, CAL, Of
feriDg Charles McKeever Sc .OCO purse to
meet Green (Young Corbett) ten rounds
at catch weights was Immediately accept
ed by McKeeyer, with the provision that
the transportation and training expenses
must be forthcoming. This is the second
time that these two men have been match.
ed, and they should put up an interesting
battle. The first timethe men were matched
the battle was to have taken place at Sea
Isle City, but Just as McKcevcr was about
to enter the ring he received dispatch
declaring the "go" off. Green giving no
reason for his action. McKeever, in antici-
patton of an exceptance of his terms, has
started mild course Of training. TIE treat
ment received by Owen Ziegler in San
Francisco will be the means OF McKeever
using every precaution to save himself from
q like deal.
The evening times., 1896-08-06

pressed into the service at Joycc's old
corner, third base. Tom Brown is once more
captain OF the Senators, and Gus Schmelz
has assumed the managerial reins. The ad-
ministration OF ..scrappy Bill'' was per-
fecuy lovely for a time, but recently vic.
tories have been scarce and defeats as
plentiful as modern deficits in the United
States Treasury. Manager Joyce's chief
mission seemed to be to train his men how
to kick. They overlooked many valuable
points OF team work, and lost runs with he
profligacy OF messenger boy throwing
circulars in a Deer Creek dump. Possibly
the secret OF JOyce's release lay in the
possession OF supeistitious vein. He got
the idea into his head that whiskers were
an emblem ofhard luck, and as Col. SchmelZ
has as luxuriant crop of lace curtains
as ever afforded sport for the wind, Capt
Joyce probably came to the conclusion that
fate had ticketed the Senators for Slump
vile. That is one solution OF the where
fore of the deal. 1t is also claimed that
there was $500 consideration in. it
for Washington, and il that is so Joyce
probably received big enough bonus to
pay for a few dinners at Delmonico's.
The success OF the Baltimore team.
according TO more than one authority, is
due 10 the tine work OF the .rooters.'' A
gentleman who has met all kinds OF
"rooters'' In his day tells wherein the
players make mispiay he is not Ike
the cranks who growl and kick. He
merely shouts out, Never mint old man!
Catch the next one!'' II au Oriole goes
out on pop-up fly with tbs bases null
he shrieks: Get 'em down rext time!
Hard luck, hard lucki Can't hit 1t every
time, you know!' And when the game is
finally won, as most games are in Balti-
more, he clings around the players like
man chasing friend for a touch on
salary day. He tries to wiring the hands
off every man he can seize; lie wants to
slap Kelly on the back and hug Robinson;
he wants to have Donnelly come right
away and have a drink, aud he finally
goes home in the best OF bumor, telling
everybody about the game as be goes.
And when the team comes home from
trip. Everything in Oysterville is wide
open, and they are the heroes, the demi-
gods, the idols. of the day. All night long
the corks are popping and the revelry is
ringing: all night long, or until their good
sense tells them 1t is time to retire, the
players are dragged from place to place,
from theater to saloon, and from saloon
to oyster supper, accompanied by insane,
shrieking, horD-blowiug, gihbering ball
cranks. The women lean from the win-
dows to cheer the stocky fellows; busi-
ness men OF note and name mix in with
the frantic mob; everything, in short. in
all Baltimore is given over to the cham.
pions. and they make the most OF their
opportunities. Do you wonder that play
ers work hard in Baltimore, play such bali
as hasn't been seen in ten long years
and hate To leave the town? Do you
wonder that Kid Gleason said he'd rather
be sitting on the bench in Baltimore than
captainiDg any ether city's club?

HANLoN AND scHMELz.
Twenty Thousand Dollars Cannot Buy
Third Baseman McGraw.

Twenty ThOusa nd Dollars Cannot Buy
Third Baseman McGraw.
The Baltimore Sun this morning says:
The heexchange OF Capt. William Joyce by the
Washington management has proved very
unpopular among the Capital City enthu-
siasts. The usual way OF counteracting
such an effect is to make an offer for some
player who cannot be bought.
Theofrer ofManagerschmclz, of Washing
ton. OF So 600 for McGraw, the great Oriole
third baseman, is deemed by many as one of
these counteracting moves. The funny part
is that even before the offer was made in
Washington on Monday afternoon, the rumor
had spread, both in Washington and Balt-
more, that McGraw had been sold for $1O,-
0oO. Manager Hanlon said yesterday:
'.At first rather preferred that nothing
be said OF the offer to buy McGraw, be-
cause felt the offer had only beer. made
for effect. But SO many people, who, it
seems tome, ought to know how foolish such
a story was, have come to me asking
whether had sold McGraw, that 1 take
this occasion to say not only that have not
sold McGraw, but shall not sell him.
when Mr.. schmelz offered me So 900
for McGraw's release, I simply remarked:
why don't you offer $50, 900 for him, or
try to buy Jennings? I would not even
think of making the deal, and it would
sound larger. When I let men like Nc
Graw loose it will be when am leaving the
baseball business myself
Manager Hanlon is in baseball to win.
This is one reason of his success. Had
Washington held on to its great players
like Meekin, Farrell, Joyce, Esper and many
others. instead of selling them, the team
would doubtless have stood well in the
League race today.

PHILADELPHIA CITY FRAUDS.
Senatorial Investigating Committee
Meets With Startling Evidences.

Meets w itu StartIiuS ENiucnce.
Philadelphia, Aug. 6.-After dragging
along in intermittent sessions for many
months without unearthing anything or \
particularly startling character, the Sen
atorial investigating committee has
struck vein that gives promise of leay-
ing some disclosures of interest.
During last year a municipal scandal was
threatened by disclosures concerning the
manner in which the Mutual Automatic
Telephone Company had obtained yaiu-
able franchise from city councils. COun
ellis appointed an investigating committee
at the time, and allegations were made
before this committee that certain members
OF common council received each six shares
from the company and members OF select
council twenty and twenty five shares
each for their aid in passing the telephone
ordinance.
Among those whose names figured on
the books OF the company as among its
shareholders were those of David Martin,
ex-nationai committeemans from -Peunsyl
vania, and Charles A. Porter, the Repub-
iican leaders in Philadelphia, for 1895
shares each. Owing to the disappearance
of certain Officers of the company the in
vestigation was blocked and finally died
q natural death.
The Senatorial Investigating committee
yesterday inserted its probeinto this Mutual
Telephone business. Julian G. Gale, pri-
vate secretary to John P. Persch, the
promoter of the company, testified before
the committee that M.s Martin handled
5000 shares of the company, and these
shares were divided into.two blocks or
1926 shares each and the balance into
blocks of six and twenty-five shares eacn. :
George A. Persch, brother OF the promoter
of the company testified that Mr.. Martin
paid him TO absent himself from Philadel-
phia during the time the councilmanic In
vestigation was going on and. that he
received from him during the period that
he was out of Philadelphia various sums
ranging from $15 to $40 at a time.
william A. Persch corroborated the
ties timony OF his brother, George. that
Mr.. Martin paid the latter money while
he was out OF the city. =. .u-5
