Their success in holding the crack nine
which had defeated everything in Aus
tralia and most everything in California
has been heralded over the land and has
caused the Ogden boys to spring into sud
den fame in baseball circles.
The Australians were baseball players
by profession, each man a player with a
record. and the fact that Ogden could
successfully cope with them is as inn
portant showing as has ever been made
by a Utah nine. Especially is this re-
markable when it is known that the Og-
den boys pretend only to be amateurs.

their two games against the Australian

clearly outplayed the foreigners and the
fact that the score, stood 8 to against

thing. The sudden gust of wind which

errors. Pettee. who was in the box for

A BIG CROWD.
The crowd yesterday was nearly as
large as at the opening game two
weeks ago, but it was better managed.
No vehicles were allowed inside the
grounds Ropes had been stretched to
protect the crowds from getting near
the diamond and interfere with the
catchers' efforts TO put men out on
fouls, and the crowds were kept down
in front so that the first rover in
the grand stand was in as amiable
mood as his neighbor above lem
onade and peanut stand did rushing
business.

Republicans Evidently Will Net
Try to ReOrganize at
Present.
They DO, a Combine of Popu.
lists and Democrats May Take
the Committees.
Committee, With Allison at the
Head, to Confer on Commit
tee Places.

WASHINGTON, March S.-The Repub-
lican senators remained in caucus an
hour and a quarter, discussing the sit.
uation Of the parties in the senate.
The only conclusion reached was the
direction of the appointment Of a COM
mittee to confer with those parties in
the senate relative to vacancies OF the
senate committees. Senator Allison
was made chairman of this advisory
committee, with power to name other
members. 1t was made evident to the
Republicans that they did no have al
organizing majority as the parties now
stood, and there was no n who could
assure the caucus that votes could be
expected from either the Populist or
silver Republican parties. The Repub-
licans would, evidently, prefer keeping
the committee places to capturing addi-
tlonal senate offices.
There has, however, it is stated, by
senator belonging to the three parties,
a ready been a sufficient exchange of
views among them to render it quite
certain that it will be possible for this
combination to agree upon a basis of
union.
There are a few Democrats, Of whom
Senator Jones of Arkansas is one, who
doubt the expediency Of assuming re-
sponsbility of reorganization by so
many interests, but the majority are Of
the opinion that the advantages are
greater than the disadvantages of q
change.

Failure of Appropriation b lis Makes
Unexpected Work for Extra Soss ion.
WASHINGTON, March S.-The failure
of President Cleveland to sign three
appropriation bills, the sundry civil,

ability of congress to agree upon the
general deficiency bill, will entail
much unexpected work upon the extra
session of the new congress and posi-
bly, may delay the enactment of the
new tariff law. The regular appro-
priations for government service and
public works carried by all of these
bills, except the deficiency, are for the

necessary that they be enacted before

Successful Test of a New Generator OF

Los ANGELES, March S.-A public

from the end of a 100 foot wharf. Par
win Wright of this city, the inventor,
conducted the experiments in the pres .

By means of the float q hydraulic COM
pressor was actuated, forcing the water
into a pressure tank under a working

a Pelton wheel, which drives any kind
of machinery. In the test an electric
generator was used and a circular saw.
Where the machinery was located, 500
feet from the beach, with a 4.foot tide,
5-horse power was easily generated.
The machine is automatically self.
