Dismissed by the Second

CHICAGO, Oct. 9.--Australians, first in
ings, 235 runs; Chicago Wanderers, second
inings, wickets for SO runs, is the history
of the second days play in the cricket match
of the Antipodeans against the Worlds
fair city players. The weather was cold
but clear, the wicket responding somewhat
quicker than yesterday, the keen wind and
warm sun having dried out the crease to
considerable extent. Darling and Gregory
tho mot outs" at the call of time last even
ing resumed their batting this morning fac
ing the bowling of Ogden and Henderson.
Gregory soon gave way to Griffen, being
caught and bowed by Henderson. Darling
was only able to add three to his score of
last night thereby making total of 90. when
he was clean bowled by Ogden. Kelley then
Joined Giffen but only succeeded in scoring
nine when Anson made a magnificent running
catch of drive to the long on from full
pitched ball by Ogden. Six wickets for
IS runs. Trott then Joined Gffen and the
stand Of the day was made. Runs came
slowly, however, but terrific drive by Trott
to long on, which appeared to be sure to
clear the boundary fence, was
safely gathered in by Pfeffer, a
brilliant catch which was hailed by
great applause. Seven wickets for 15o runs.
The only batter. with the exception of Grif-
fen, to reach double figures after Captain
Trott, was Graham, who put % together in
fine style. Citizens not out for SO was a
splendid display of careful ard scientific bat
ting. He gave but two chances, one at the
wicket, the other a difficult catch to the
bowler and an ovation greeted him when he
retired on account Of McKibben being clean
bowled by Howell All out for 235 runs.
The Wanderers of Chicago started right In
on their second innings with Ogden and Gil
christ batting, McKibben and Eady bowling.
They were rather unfortunate in
their second effort, as when time
was called, eight wickets had
fallen for SO runs. Davis, the Chicagoan
who made the largest score yesterday, "a,
was only able to put together 0 when a swift
ball from the off delivered by McKibbon
broke through his guard and retired him.
Cummings and Howell were at bat when
time was called, the former having 13 TO his

CHICAGO POsTOFFICE.
New Building to be Eight Stories
High With Four Wings.

Washington, Sept. 9.-Chicago is to
have an eight-story government build
ing. The design is unlike any govern
ment building in the United States.
Henry Ives Cobb, the architect ap-
pointed by the secretary of the treas
ury to design this building, has re
turned from his vacation at Bar Har-
Dor. He brought with him the COM
pleted drawings for the structure and
a large water color sketch as it will ap-
pear when finished.
He declined to give any description
of the building at this time, or any
particulars about it, and no design will
be shown publicly until a fixed day
next week
From the sketch which hangs on the
wall in Mr. CObbs Office, however, a
good general idea of the structure can
be gained. 1t is to be in the form of a
cross upon a square. The first two
stories viii constitute the square por-
ton of the building and will fill the en-
tire space of the block bounded by
Jackson, Clark, Dearborn and Adams
streets The dimensions of this block,
measuring from the lot lines, are in
round figures $50 by 400 feet, the great
est length being on Dearborn and Clark
streets. This square part of the struc-
ture will be used by the postoff1ce de-
partment and will afford ample accom-
modatiOns for all branches of that ser
vice for years to come. Thus the post
Office is all practically on the ground
floor

sCOIN'S'' SCHEME.
Organizing a Secret Order Called oThe
Patriots of America"

indianapolis, Sept. 9.-W. H. Har-
vey, widely known as Coin has
struck a new scheme for making mon
ey. During the past two months he
has been busily engaged in organizing
a secret order called 1.-The Patriots of
America" He has collected the names
of a large number of silverites and of
people who purchased his Financial
School," and has sent to each a print
ed circular over the signature of H.
c. Cupp, National Recorder. A num-
Der of these circulars have turned up
here, and a few lodges OF the order
have been organized in districts where
the silver sentiment is strongest All
members are expected to buy Mr. Har-
veys new book, which goes under the
same title as the name of the order.
The circular states that the object of
the order is to indulge in a study of
the financial question in nOn-partisan
way and to make free coinage voters
Harvey will take the lecture field to
help the scheme along, and expects to
make his first talk at Indianapolis next
Monday night.
