CAPTURED BY BANDITS.
An American Citizen and His Son
Kidnapped Near Tangier-

Tangier, Morocco, May 19.-An
American citizen named Perdfcaris.
and his stepsOn, a British subject,
were carried off by the well known
bandit, Raisuli, and his followers last
night and will doubtless be held for
heavy ransom The captives were
staying at Perdicaris' summer resi-
dence, only three miles from Tangier,
when the bandits attacked and cap
tured them.
Perdfcaris is OF Greek origin, but ~
a naturalized citizen of the United
States. He is very wealthy and has
lived in Tangfer for years. He mar
ried an English woman. whose son
is his companion in captivity.
Foreigners are much excited by this
bold raid, so near Tangier. and at
tribute it to the supineness of the gov
eminent in falling to punish the ban
dts. who last year captured Walter b
Harris, the correspondent in Morocco
of the London Times, and their fall
ure to deal with general Iawlessness.

one delegate that the representative

number of votes that will be cast for
him.

basis there is for such talk is not
known. Fort Scott is the only place
in the league which is having hard
shedding, but things are picking up
rapidly there under the "Bene-Horna-
day reformation" The Giants will
have plenty of support if they brace
up and get out of the zero rut. There
has been no quitting talk from any
of the towns. Parsons is a hot ball
town. At the beginning of the year
when Topeka was trying to get a
fOothOld, that place offered to buy the
franchise from this city and pay all
the money which had been expended
in obtaining it. The following from
the Parsons Eclipse is the basis for
this paragraph: The matter of pro
feSsiOnal baseball in Parsons is be-
ginning to take on new life, owing
to the fact that the owner of a fran
chise for one of the neighboring
towns which is in the Missouri Valley
league is DESTROYS of transferring TO
the town at which the franchise is
now held is undesirable and the COM
munity does not afford the team suff1-
cient support, and the holder of the

connections. would be far preferable.
1t is thought that with little enthusi-
asm on the subject the baseball en-
thusiasts of the city will succeed in
getting a professional team in the city
within the next few weeks.
Fort Scott has released Ed Smith
of st. Louis. Smith is a warm wealth
er man and could not get into condi-
ton. He will sign with some south
ern team.
Billy Baxter. the old Washburn
pitcher, discarded this year by Spring
field, is playing with the Scammon,
kas-, amateur team If he gets back
into shape he will return to the
Midgets. He has not been up to his
usual form this year for some reason
or other.
lola Record: Pitcher Davis of Sc
dalia by rights belongs to lola. When
Sedalia was in a pinch and lola had
plenty of pitchers Davis was loaned to
the Goldbugs. Then when lola asked
for his return Sedalia refused, and
lola would say nothing, as it is 5000

California Republicans Also Elect
Delegates to Chicago.

Sacramento, May 19.-The Repub-
mean state convention elected Judge
G. Burnett of Sonoma county char
man. The platform endorses Presi-

to the history of the Republican
party.
The following are elected delegates
at large to the national convention:
Governor George c. Pardee John
D Spreckles. proprietor of the san
francisco Call; George A. Knight of
San Francisco, and Judge J. w Nc

Sedalia and lola. the two leaders of
the league at the present time on per-
centages, are down in the fifth and
sixth places. But on run getting they
both lead, Sedalia by a big majority.
The GOldbugs have more runs than
hits, something peculiar and showing
their base pilfering and quick percep-
ton to take advantage of every play in
the game. Fort Scott, the tail ender
both in the standing and in hitting
and run getting, has also the biggest
chunk of errors, a total of so. But
Joplin, just now the heavy hitter, has
SO errors and stands second high on
that score. lola and Sedalia are play
ing with the least number of baubleS,
the former having but "a and the latter
"a. Topeka has 81 and is third high.
There have been few shutouts in the
league, Fort Scott having two, and To-
peka, SedaliG, Leavenworth and Pitts
burg each having one against them.
EsrrOrlesS games are not uncommon,
lola having two to its credit, Joplin
/, SedaliA 2, Leavenworth 2. There has
been but one no-hit game, and that is
charged up to the credit of Cy Stin-
son, who BANKED Sedalia. last Saturday
so far as willow-work is concerned.
There is however, a record close to
that, Fort Scott making but one hit off
Davis of Sedalia, on May 1, in the
opening game of the season.
A new ruling has come to the front
this year with reference to charging
an error against a player for failure
to catch a foul fly. even though the
batter does not subsequently reach
first base. In a National league game
this spring, king of Chicago, dropped
a high one While catching. The bat
ter struck out. The scorer gave King
an error, and he made a protest to
the president of the league in regard
to the matter, but that official held
that his act was an error regardless
of what the batter did afterwards.
The same ruling will be enforced in
the Missouri Valley league by Presi-
dent Shiveley. In his opinion, if it
was possible to catch the fly, and the
player failed to do so, he made an
error because of the further chances
which it gave the batter.
Down at Parsons the fans feel that
one of the Missouri Valley league
baseball teams will be removed from
one of the present members of the
circuit to their own. Just what
