PLANS A NEW CAPITAL.
Brazil VIII Build City in the State
of GOTaZ

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The gov
ernment of Brazil is about to under
take an extraordinary enterprise in
the establishment of a new capital
in the state of Goyaz, near the geo
graphical center Of the republic. The
scheme is SO bold that it reminds one
of the work of Peter the Great when
he built st. Petersburg in order that ne
might have a window from which he
could look over Europe" THE czar's
window as st. Petersburg is known
Washington, and La Plata, which is
the capital of the state of Buencs
Ayres in the Argentine Republic, art
the only great cities that were fully
laid out with streets, avenues and
parks plated, and the sites of public
buildings located, before the earth was
disturbed by spade or the sound of
d hammer was heard. All of these
cities were within convenient distances
of other citieS-Petersburg from Mos
cow, La Plata from Buenos Ayres ami
Washington from Philadelphia and
New York But the government of
Brazil proposes to plunge into the un-
trodden wilderness of Goyaz, which,
with it's vast plains, rich valleys, its
eXhauStless mineral, pastoral, vegeta

rivers and fine climate, offers the most

the proposed location of the new capt.
tai will be forty eight hours distant
from the city of Santos when the rail
ways now existing in that province
are extended.
Some years ago a commission was
appointed to locate a site for capital
in the central part of the republic,
which should take the government
away from the unhealthy city of Rio
to the pure air of the interior, and all
appropriation was made to pay the
expense of surveys. After a careful
examination of all the locations sug-
gested, the commission decided to rec
ommend beautiful spot among the
hills on the central plateau of the re-
public in the state named, which may
be described as the dome of the CONT

of the continental water shed, within
a few miles of the sources of the Para

southern portion of the continent which
pours into the sea through the Parana

within q few miles, are the sources ot
the AmaZonian system, which drains
the central and northern part of Bra

des. Within single days journey

OF highway robbery. In company with

The hold Up is said to have taken
place in the alley in the rear Of the
old Olympic theater on Seventh street,
shortly before 1 o'clock. The four men
it is alleged, enticed Peterson into the
alley where he was subjected to the
strong arm" process, and quite
roughly handled. There was a strug-
gle during which the watch was taken
from his pocket when the highwaymen
threw him to the ground and made
their escape. Peterson was slightly
injured. Hussey and Davis were
rounded up by Lieut.. Bahe, Sergeant
Ross and Officers Calvin an Zacher
at Seventh and Wabashaw streets

eral previous occasions and Davis is

Magnate Manning has given De!ehanty his
release. The eX-Brewer did not cover enough
ground to satisfy the Kansas City president,
who secured CASSIDY from Minneapolis to
play second base
Umpire Graves has been fired by President
Johnson and Umpire Morton deserted his job
at Grand Rapids. Daily, of the Michigan
league, has been appointed to I'LL one OF the
vacancies.
The finger of suspicion points at Wilmot, Of
the Minneapolis cub, as the manager ac-
cused by President Johnson of tamperlng
with the players belonging to other Clubs

Comiskey and Manning both wanted ex-
Manager Rogers, of the Louisvilles, but Perry
Werden telegraDhed Comskey tEat Rogers had

"GiI'' Hatfield has been signed by Indian
apols, Magnate Comiskey having Withdrawn
his claim to the veteran third basem3n.
Arthur Clarkson has not accepted terms yet
from Detroit Kansas City. Both clubs
have claimed him.
Now St. Paul has forty-four games to play
at home and forty-three away, including post
poned games with Detroit, Milwaukee and
Kansas City.
Indianapolis has three games at Columbus
beginning Friday.
st. Paul plays five games at Kansas City
this trip beginning Wednesday.
Neither Columbus nor Indianapolis has a
game scheduled for either Wednesday or
Thursday. They may play off a postponed
game or two, however, if Watkins can pluck
up courage enough.
The next game of ball in st. Paul will
be ladies' day, Friday, July 2.
On its next trip away from home St. Paul
will play only twelve games-two at In
dianapolis, three each at Columbus and Grand
Rapids and four at Detroit.
The three clubs which are now fighting
for the lead in the Western league all end
the season away from honest Paul at
Kansas City, indianapolis at Detroit and
Columbus at Grand Rapids
ST. Paul is keeping up it's record. 1t has
won eight and lost eight on the trip.
If there is a staff umpire at the grounds
today to put Wilmot out of the game early
it should be interesting contest. Other
wise there will probably be some language
heard that, in courtesy to the ladies who
attend base ball here should be cut out

MILWAUKEE, Wis, June 2O.-St
Paul won today in spite of Terry's fine
pitching The yellow work of Myers
and Daily, and Speer's inability to stop
base running at second gave the vis-
itors a big lead in the fifth and sixth
innings. The Brewers started out as
though they intended to repeat their
brilliant performance of the preced-
ing day and began to hit Fricken hard,
but when the Saints took the lead in
the fifth he became steadier and kept
the locals from punching their drives.
Nicholson, Glasscock, Shugart and
Spies participated in several sharp
plays, a double by GlasscOck and Mich
olson cutting off probable runs in
the seventh. NicOl LeWee and Stafford
kept up their record for fine work,
and Stafford, Myers and Speer did some
hard batting. A single, triple and two
wild throws gave the Brewers two in
the first inning, and in the fourth a
base on balls, a two-bagger and sin
gle added two more runs to their score,
their last tally being made in the
eighth on a single and Preston's muff
of a fly. In the second a single and
two woolly errors gave the Saints two
runs, to which they added three in the
fifth on base on balls, two wild throws
and long fly. In the sixth, after the
side should have been retired, mis-
plays by Myers We're followed by five
singles, and three runs came in, and in
the seventh, a single steal and a sac
rifice gave them another. Haskell was
taken sick in the third inning, and
Reidy and Phyle umpired the game.

He could have cut Miller off at the plate but

made, but the umpire thought otherwise and
Mil.ers run counted. The Blues began their
run-getting in the second inning and snched
the game in the third, when a hit, sacrifice,
a base on balls, a batsman hit by a pitched
bal and two singles netted three runs. The
game was too one-sided to be interesting the
only feature being the fielding work of the
Blues. ConnaughtOn made a circus catch in
the third by going up into the air and pulling
down hot line drive from Kuehne's bat with
one hand. The score:
