PRAYERS FOR GOOD WEATHER
NOTHING BUT BASE BALL TALK
AT BALTIMORE.
The Boston Rooters Much In Evil
dence-Jockey Sloane to Ride His
Last Race In This Country Today
General Sporting News.

Baltimore, Sept. 26.-After two days
of almost breathless excitement and
suspense have been passed safely the
third and most momentous day of the
baseball year is awaited by thousands
of local fans" with prayers for favor
able weather first and success for the
home team next in tomorrow's game
between Baltimore and Bostou-the
final one OF the last series between
these two leading teams. AS for the
weather every indication points to
realization of their fondest hopes and
it is probable that With good condi-
tions Saturdays large attendance
would be equalled, possibly exceeded by
those who will journey to Union park
to witness tomorrow battle royal. The
unchecked and unquenchable enthusi-
asm of the $50 Boston rooters is making
the Eutaw House the scene of continu
Gus activity and excitement. They are
a confident lot of rooters and are pre-
pairing for a great demonstration over
their prospective victory. The Boston
team themselves. il they are confident
as their supporters about the winning
do not display it so conspicuously.
They say they will make the fight Of
their lives. The team is in fine form.
Nichols is sure TO pitch for Boston, but
who Manager Hanlon will put in is not
quite clear. Corbett is anxious to have
another chance to win, but it is not
probable that he will pitch. Nops or
Hoffer are the probabilities. Manager
Zelee has practically signed Mills, the
new pitcher who is travelling with the
team.

GOLD REPUBLICANS PROTESTING
PECULIAR POLITICAL SITUA
TToN ARISES IN NEBRASKA.
Much Litigation Expected From the
Use of the Words "GoId" and "Sil-
yer" Republicans

Loncoln, eNeb., Sept. 27.-Some interest
ing litigation growing out of the peculiar
state of politics in Nebraska has de-
yeIoped. The gold Republicans have
filed protest with the secretary of state
against the silver Republicans being
designated on the ticket under that name
They state as a basis for their action that
the new action law of the state prohibits
any new party from taking the name or
any part of a name of a political orgdniza-
ton already in existence.
In reply tomorrow the silver ReDubli-
cans viii begin by admitting the correct
ness of the gold Republicans interpreta-
ton of the law, but will maintain that
the Republicans are the usurDers and
should be enjofned from using the title
Republican party" and in support of
their position they will quote from a num-
Der of state platforms of the party in
which common use of both gold and
silver Is declared to be the cardinal Drin-
c!ples of tine Republican party and in
which free coinage is supported.
In addition they will quote from
speeches made in Nebraska by Senator
Joan NJ Thurston, in which ne declared
his adhesion to free silver and asserted
that it was a part of the original policy
of the Republican party that the two
metals should be the original money of
the nation. Whatever the decision of the
secretary OF state is, the case will be car
ried to the supreme court.
1t is thought probable that the matter
will reach national proportions before 1T
is settled

whom the fates have woven a web of
romance. which renders him an ideal
hero in the world of letters.
