OLD BOYS AND THE NEW COMPARED
One Paper Thinks Rowdyism IL Dis
appearinR Anyway.

Sometimes the fans get very much eX-
cited discussing the question as to whether
base ball is faster today than it was fifteen
or twenty years ago. Sometimes the real
old-timers assert that there are no such
outfeders today as Fogarty, McAleer and
Griffin; such base runners as Harry
StoNey: no such pitchers Radbourne,
Clarkson and Burlington; no such catchers
as Bennett and Kelly; no such coachers as
Foley and latham. Be that as il may,
IL is all a matter of opinion any way-thc
one happy, undisputed fact remains that
more sportsman-like than IL was in the
days of the old heroes And IL there Is
today who shall say that the sport is not
,ll the better therefor? 1t would be folly
to say that, the desire of the Maps to de-
feat the Athletics today Is less keen than
was the wish of the old Cleveland team TO
beat PittsburB but note the different meth
ods adopted to bring about the same re-
suit Who has seen in all the games be-
tween the forces of Lajois and Mack the
slightest suggestion Of rowdyism or bru-
iniure a player? Who among the old
timers does not recall the bloody clashes
between the Cleveland and Pittsburg teams
of the early '90sP In one of these series
the spikes of Outfelder Jake Stencil were
sent slashing through Patsy Tebeau's shoes,
cutting and mangng a. ibag bad ne 6syeand

FAMOUS CHURCH OF ST. MICHAEL
AT HAMBURG BURNED TO
THE GROUND.
OTHER BUILDINGS IN RUINS
FOUR PERSONS KILLED, TWENTY
OTHERS MISSING AND MANY
FiREMEN HURT.

Hamburg, July 4-St. Michael's
church, one Of the most interesting
buildings in Hamburg, was totally de
stroyed by fire in the afternoon The
fire broke out in the steeple where
Workmen were repairing the clock
and IS supposed to have been due to
oarelessness. The confiagration spread
rapidly and the steeple, which was
426 feet high, fell in less than forty
minutes from the time the fire started.
The flames communicated with ad-
Joining buildings, several of which
burned SO rapidly that the fire seemed
to get beyond control. The firemen
fought desperately to check the
flames and remove the inmates Of the
burning house. A strong wind was
blowing. A department store occu-
pying three buildings was rapidly
Quilted by the flames. The roof of
the church soon fell in with thunder
ing noise.
After the church was in flames, Dr..
Brinkmann, director Of the museum of
art and industry, with several Off
cials, entered the edifice to save the
gold and silver treasures, but only the
smaller part of these were saved.
When the steepIe Fell.
When the steeple fell the thousands
Of people who had gathered in the
streets gave vent to great groans that

flames.
The flames later attacked houses in
Englischeplanke, Poehmken, Venus
berg and Muehlen streets. The
Scaarmarkt, which was wooden
building, burned rapidly. A small
Baptist church was also destroyed In
all twelve houses were entirely de-
stroyed, while more than twenty roofs
or upper stories were burned
Twenty persons are missing. The
fire watchman who lived in the stee-
pie sounded the electric alarm, but
his retreat was cut off. Three work
men who were repairing the clock al
SO perished, and thirty firemen were
injured, two of them dangerously.
At late hour at night the flames
were still burning, but the fire was
under control and it's further spread
Is improbable.
Only the walls of the church are
standing. The people of Hamburg
deeply regret the loss of the church,
which was one of the most prominent
objects in the general view of the city.
All state religious functions were held
In st. Michael's.

EXTRAORDINARY CONFERENCE
Russian Cabinet Holds Midnight
Meeting.

st. Petersburg, July A meeting
of the cabinet called by Premier
Goremykin after his return from his
visit to Emperor Nicholas at Peterhof,
began at 10:30 o'clock at night, the
ministers having heen unable to as.
semble during the day, and continued
until late into the night
No authoritative announcement of
the reason for the calling of this ex-
traordinary midnight conference or its
decisions is obtainable, but there is
little doubt it was connected with the
change in the ministry, though in
dividual ministers declined to admit
that explanation.
Hints dropped by Constitutional
Democratic leaders indicate that over
lures for their participation in a min
istry at the present stage have to do
with mixed cabinet under the leader
ship of Former Minister Of Agriculture
Yermoloff. This, however, is regard
ed as utterly impossible.
There is strong ground to believe
the Constitutional Democrats, in spite
OF their protestations, will participate
In ministry under Ivan Shipoff, for
mer minister of finance, if the latter
can be induced to accept the premier
shin.

BRYAN ARRIVES AT LONDON.
Noted Nebraskan Soon 5esieged With
Callers.

London, July 4-William j. Bryan
and Mrs. Bryan have arrived from
Norway. They landed at Newcastle
and remained there day, Mr.. Bryan
desiring chance to Quietly complete
some writing. Arriv ing here Mr..
Bryan went to the Hotel Cecil, where
he soon was besieged by callers. John
Burns, William T. Stead and Mrs
Stead came early in the evening and
paid an extended visit. Messrs.
Bryan, Burns and Stead engaged in
an animated discussion of economics
and of the social and labor questions
Mr.. Bryan received q, great mass of
American mail. When he had finished
reading his letters, he received a
deputation of newspaper correspond
ents and dictated a statement, in part
as follows:
THE suggestion of a reception to
me at New York came prior to the ac-
tfon of any Of the state conventions
and before there was any discussion
Of the next campaign. It came from
the Commercial Travellers league, Of
~AlCu Mi IlU5C lS )I0SluGul. 1 as
sured him should be pleased to meet
the members of the league, suggesting
that the reception be characterized
with simplicity. Now that the ac-
tfon of some of the state conventions
has raised the question of political
significance to the reception, I am
compelled to say it must not be re-
garded in the light of campaign for
the presidential nomination. While
appreciate the endorsement of the
state conventions, I do not regard it
as binding upon the m or upon the
party of their states. To allow the re-
ception to be termed as an endorse
ment would in the first place be I'M

Mrs. Thaw Says She Will Not Finch
at the Ordeal. =.

New York, July 4-"When the time
comes I shall be only too glad to talk
and tell all. shall not finch at the Or
deal, nor will 1 break down My one
thought now is to be Of service to my
husband"
This statement was made by Mrs.
Harry K. Thaw just before she was
admitted to see her husband at the
Tombs and is the first time she had
consented to talk Of her probable at
titude in the coming trial Of Thaw for
the murder of Stanford White.

ment in the ante-mortem testimony OF
Valet Bedford to the effect that she
was not married to Thaw abroad,
previous to the ceremony performed
by Rev. DR.. w. l.. McEwan in Pitts
burg at the request of Thaw's mother.
II was married to Mr.. Thaw abroad"
said Mrs. Thaw, "before the ceremony
in this country and l have the proof,
all statements to the contrary not
withstanding. | shall produce the
proof at the trial"
Mrs. Thaw paid her usual visit to
her husband at the Tombs, remaining
In conversation with him for con-
siderable time She was awaited out
side by the usual large crowd of
suriosity-seekers that gathers each
day to watch her come and go. !:
Former Judge Olcott, Thaw's chief
counsel, had a conference with his
client in the afternoon. He was ac.
companied by Mr.. Keck, who is said
to be the attorney for the Thaws at
Pittsburg. When Judge Olcott left he
carried with him a bundle of about
seventy letters which Thaw had re-
ceived through the mails. Judge Oh
colt stated that owing to the number
Of letters sent daily to Thaw he would
have some member Of the law firm
open them in the future before they
reach him and thus save the young
man considerable annoyance.
Assistant District Attorney Garvan
has secured possession Of the reports
Of the three detectives, I. w. Rorke.
William Mcdonald and Harry Raleigh,
who were employed by Thaw to watch
the movements of Stanford White.
Thaw will go to trial on the charge
OF killing White on his simple plea Of
mot guilty." the time limit for inter
posing any motion or demurrer by
counsel having expired.

Seattle, Wash, July 4.-After an In
gestigation begun at the instance Of
the German government the local po-
lice raided a house formerly occupied
by August Rosenberg, a German
bricklayer, and found plant equipped
for making bombs and Internal ma

German emperor. The German con-
sui at Seattle subsequently received

him to investigate. The finding of the
plant followed. The articles seized

moulds, furnace and a large auan-
tity of scrap iron.
