A SECOND DEFEAT.
Chicago oaks Defeat Kenosha Athletics by
One Run Margin.

ushe Kenosha Athletics met their
eeEgnd defeat of the season at Simmons
hal last Saturday evening and the
victory went to the Chicago Oaks, the
strongest indoor aggregation in the
West by the narrow margin of one run.
Notwithstanding the inclemency of
the weather the crowd present at the
game tested the capacity of the hall
and q finer job of the old fashioned
roofing was never seen in Kenosha.
The final score stood two to one in
favor of the Oaks and while everybody
was sorry that the Kenosha boys failed
to land the game no one regretted
having braved the elements to witness
the contest, for 1t was the best of the
season.
The game was one of controlling
interest, the two great pitchers Searles
and Mcclellan, fighting through every
inning.
The Kenosha pitcher got the best of
the argument allowing the Chicago
players but two hits and striking out
Is men. Searles also pitched mag
nifcent game, striking out IL men and
the Athletics got but five hits.
The Kenosha boys lost the game
through hard luck and bad base run
ming on the part of Mckenzie. In the
fifth inning thesKenosha first base man
had an easy chance to tie the score but
he attempted to make "grand stand"
and was caught fully two feet off the
base.
Both teamssplayed an errorless game
in the field and.hardly single stolen
base is creditedItoseither team. John
Harkins and Cooper held the men close
at first, the only scores by the Chicago
men being the.Eresult of third strikes
being dropped byL,ne catcher in the
first two innings.
The lineup of the teams was as
fOljhws.

BRYAN ON COMBINES.

At Chicago yesterday William ).
Bryan praised II. 0. Havemeyer's
opinion on trade combines, as express
ed before the Industrial Commisson al
Washington.
ave will find out lot about these
combines" said Mr.. Bryan, before we
get drought with them. Here is
Havemeyer, who has made millions
through the agency of combinations,
and saws these things, which are in
variably inimical to labor, could not live
were it not for high protective duties.
Now these duties were put there by the
republicans when they got in power,
out the fight OF next year will not be
made on trusts, which will constitute q
comparatively collateral issue. The
high tariff duties and the consequent
combinations which follow in their
wake are the result of the victory in
1896 over the money Of the people as
against the money of men who manage
the trusts.
"Of course, just as Mr.. Havemeyer
says, the people are plundered through
the tariff law, but we must go back
of the tariff if we want to
find out where the real reason
lies. This sugar trust magnate has nol
said anything that has not been said
scores of times before, but never by SO
prominent an advocate Of trusts.
"Mr. Havemeyer has some object IN
view in making his statements ofyester-
day before the industrial commission,
but what it is, of course, [ cannot say.
These men of millions never waste
words any more than they throw away
dollars; every move is calculated. They
say and do things for the effect they
Will have. They do not talk idly, for
they are busy men. What was Mr..
Havemeyer's object in making the dec
larations he did before the commission?
We will have 20 wait for that.
Mr.. Bryan said that the great MAORI
ty Of the democratsin the United States
were opposed to the policy of the Presi'
dent in the Philippines, and that it
would not be long before the majority
OF the people OF the country would de
mand that stop be put to the slaught-
er in the Orient.
"What good will come from this
killing of our boys in Luzon?" he ask
ed "These Filipinos are fighters and
will not be easily subdued, and the
commanders there are asking for IS 900
more men. Our men who do come
back will be physical wrecks, and l
cannot see what good will come OF 1t

THE AMERICANS ENTER mus.
The town of linus was peacefully
garlisoned last night by two batta'
lions of the Fourteenth Infantry. A
white flag was floating from the church
tower as the Americans entered. Many
of the inhabitants, who had been ter
ri6ed by the insurgents, fed from the
town as Lieutenant Zeiger's scouts
marched in, but later they began to re.
turn at the solicitation of the mayor.
The town occupies Il naturally strong
position on a deep river with steep
banks. One bridge spans the river.
The church and arsenal were found to
be loopholed for rifles. Quantities of
shells and powder were left behind by
the rebels, evidence of their hasty re-
treat. The people of the town are
poverty.stricken.
A body of insurgents entered the
rear of the American lines three and a
half miles north of Calumpit and des'
troyed the telegraph wires and a por-
ton of the railroad track. The Third
Artillery and party of signal men are
now repairing the damage. A skirmish
ed heavy firing from large force of re-
bells.

If THE South has suffered from
lynching, as some ill-informed South
ern mugwumps enormously say it has,
why shouldn't the same crime in the
North produce the like effect in That
section also? 1t is the liability to the
,offeuse for which lynching is the nat
ural Punishment in the South that may
have injured this section, not the pen
atty thereof, and that it has not suffered

the fact that in none of the many

that any material interest therein has
