BILOXI JUMPS TIE GAME.
Secs Defeat Imminent and Refuses
to Finish Game on Alleged
BAD Decision.

Of all the farces ever perpetrate1
The one forced on Hattiesburg by the
Biloxi ball players deserves the palm.
Seeing defeat imminent, and wishing
10 go away without adding defeat
to their record, the Biloxians, grasp
ing at the proverbial straw, seized
upon an alleged unjust decisi On of
the umpire and before the matter
could we'll be argued, put their sore
little heads together and declared the
game, disgusting every one present
by their lack of manliness and sport
manship.
In the first game Hattiesburg was
beaten, badly beaten. But thu
players took it like the sportsmen
they are, and united in showing the
Biloxians that they could accept de-
feat gracefully, and gave to them the
full credit or the vi tory, although,
as a matter of fact Hattiesburg was toe
badly crippled to put up her usual
game, and the umpire-BilOxi' S
choine-was acknow lodged by them tC
have been rotten in his decisions
We do not wish to appear harsh,
nor are we actuated by prejudice, but
when unfair treatment is given some
retaliation should be made, ant
Biloxi, beyond the pale of question,
abused the hospitality of Hattiesbura
in such a way rs TO make whatever
might be said justifiable. The game
promised to be the best ever played
in this city. ThOmpkins, one of ths
best pitchers in the state, was in tn,
box, and from all appearances Hat
tiebsurg would have been victorious
The Biloxians were doing splendid
work, hut when they saw that will
Thompkins and Bridges as battery
they stood little show CT victory
they refused to be defeated.
1t now develops that this was &
pTearranged plan on their part tt
avoid defeat, it having beel
overheard by a gentleman of thi:
city, who by accident heard the con
versation, that the players were in
structed not to complete tie game
should it go against them. 4 team
that would co that should be debarret
from playing with all Legitimate
bail players.

Let the people of Hattiesburg not
forget that the Progress will not
overlook any worthy institution in it's
rounds of paying its respects pub
licly. This will be done whether
said institution is patron or not, as
this fact cuts no figure, since the de-
termination of the new manager is to
merit the good will of the people
and leave the patronage end to them
and their consci ences. 1t would be
impossible to mention in detail all
the business concerns in any one
issue, but they will all be brought
before the public in the course of
time, taking them one and two at a
time in easy stages, as circumstances
will admit. The Progress has en-
listed body and soul in the cause of
Hattiesburg and the interests of no
one will be ignored in its battlings.

recognizable as the same man, he is
beginning a five-year sentence on a
charge of performing n criminal op-
Grafton. He vigorously maintains
his innocence, claiming that he has
been for years the victim of a con-
spiracy which had its origin among
those opposed to the work of the.
Anti-Saloon league who took offense
at his activity in the cause. He is.
confident that the circuit court will
reverse the finding of the lower
court and order his release.

suit OF the Election in Cleveland
Cleveland, April S.-Senator Hanna
yesterday gave the press the follow
ing statement concerning the result
of Mondays election:
"Whle the result in Cleveland is
disappointing to the republicans the
effect will be to stimulate them to-
greater effort in future campaigns.
The result by no means shakes my
faith in the belief that we can carry
this (Cuyahoga) county next fall. The
general situation in the state contin-
ues favorable to the republican par
ty."
Col. Myron T. Herrick, candidate
for the republican gubernatoriaR
nomination, referring to the election,
said: 1.-The city and county elections
are entirely different propositions
The result in this city will have the,
effect of further uniting the republi-
can party next fall on working ba-
sis. My candidacy was conceived
with view to possible democratic
success in Cleveland this spring, but
with the hope that it would unite the
party in the city and thus contrib
ute to success in the county as n
whole. | believe that Mondays re-
suit does not affect, except to im~
prove, the chances of republican sue
cess in the county next fall, because
normally the county is republican"

DECLARED A BOYCOTT.
SaIoonkeepers of New York City are
Up in Arms Against the Farmers of
the State.

New York, April S.-Resolutions
were passed yesterday by District
No. 1 of the central body of the Re-
tail Liquor Dealers association boy
cotting all products of the New York
state farmers by the hotels, restau-
rants and saloons in the district
bounded by Broadway, Fulton street
and the East river after May /. The
district contains about 200 saloons,
about half of which are in connection
with restaurants.
a second resolution was passed
asking the New York City brewers to
refuse all hops raised by the New
York state farmers. Market men,
grocers and produce men all over the
city will be asked to cooperate.
The proposed boycott is the out
come of the additional tax of $500 a
year put on liquor dealers. In bring
ing about such a boycott the saloon.
keepers have two objects in view,
first to even up in a measure a long
felt prejudice against the ruralist
legislators, and second to so affect
the ipocketbook of the farmtr that he
will be made to feel resentment at
Gov. Odell, to whose influence the
liquor men attribute the passage of
the new tax.
The retail liquor dealers associa.
tion practically has bound itself to
buy no cheese from the New York
state farmer, which means millions
of dollars to him, and the boycott, il
possible, will be extended to all farm
products.

May Reopen the Dreyfus Case.

Paris, April s.-The debate in the
chamber of deputies yesterday is
likely to lead to the reopening of the
Dreyfus case and perhaps to the re-
Mobilization of the fosmer prisoner
of DEVILS Island. This is mainly due
to two facts brought out by the So
cialist leader, NJ. Jaures. One is a
falsified document bearing alleged
annotations by the German emperor
which were forgeries and which
helped to convict Dreyfus, and the
other is that the letter written by
Gen. Pellieux to M. Cavaignac when
the latter was war minister in 1898.

PRAYED IN THE DEPOT.
Mormons Hold Religious Services at
the Pueblo Station.

Pueblo, Colo, Oct 13-Pnobab1y for
the first time in it's history religious SER
vices were held late last night at the
union depot waiting room a party of
twenty-five Mormons bound from Eng
land to Utah were responsible. They
stopped in Pueblo to change trains, go
ing west on the Rio Grande early this
morning. The service was led by a
tall, slender man with flowing beard,
who appeared to be a leader of the band.
HIS text was The Lord Is MY Shep-
herd and he used it to emphasize the
fact that, like the scheep they were be-
ing led to the promised land in Utah.
The services ended with a short prayer
and were so quietly conducted that but
few of the people in the depot knew
what was going on and supposed that
they were simply engaged in discus
sion. The home of the Mormons was in
northern England where many more
converts have been secured.
