at the corners OF the downtown streets.
when the first game was over the crowds
swayed all over the diamond and the
vater faucets which Pa has over the lot
p wetting the ground were given a heavy
ny.
Holmes was seen arguing with Haskell
during the intermission, trying to get him
to cali off the second game and he sue
ceeded In his efforts. When the gons was
sounded and the police had cleared the
diamond, Haskell announced the game was
called because not enough time remained
before darkness to enable It to be played.
Didn't Like Ducky' Dirt.
When Haskell announced the second game
would be called off the crowd was dumb
founded and fans did not seem to realize
they were to be deprived OF a chance OF
Ducky and his bunch getting another pack
age handed them by the Champions. Pa
Rourke. who had not been consulted in the
matter. hustled onto the diamond and tried
to argue with Haskell. but he was no use.
The fans crowded around ard for a time
it looked as though there would be some
real excitement, but a dozen police sur
rounded Haskell and saw that no harm came
to him, although he was bombarded with
cushions. Holmes showed he was not on
the square WIN the crowd Dy taxing MS
team off the field. He and Rourke could
have arranged to play the second game
with any umpire. in spite Of Haskell, II he
had wanted to be fair with the crowd.
Ground rules were put in force. making
all hits into the crowd two-baggers. The
game from the standpoint of fast ball play
ing was not up to the standard OF the previ-
Gus games in the present series, but 1t was
most interesting. 's'
Pat Raglan and Mckay started out OPP
posed to each other and both were soon
forced to retire, the trouble was that each
stayed longer than he should. Although
Raglan passed the first two men up and
the third sacrificed he steadied and held
the Sioux without a run in the first inning.
But It was a different tale when Omaha
came to bat. Fisher opened with a double
and the bombardment kept up until three
had scored and in the second inning four
more were added. Then Mckay gave way
to Starr, who worked his famous inshoots
successfully until the eighth inning, when
he in turn was bombarded for three hits
and CAV two bases on balls, which melted
three runs and won the game. Sioux City
had in the meanwhile duplicated the efforts
OF Omaha and made four runs off Ragar
in the third inning and three OF Hall in the
sixth inning. when Hall retired and Hol-
lenbeck stopped further scoring.

APPROPRIATION

N'PCtiai " Inc oChllACl.J
Washington, Feb. 1S.-The legis-
lative, executive and judicial appro-
priation bill, one of the large sup
ply measures of the government, was
passed by the house yesterday, after
several days discussion. The amount
carried by it is practically as re-
ported by the committee-$32,3 1886,
573.
There was a lively debate over a
provision giving discretion to the
heads of departments to remove or
reduce incapacitated employees of the
government. 1t was finally adopted.
Amendments providing for the
payment of pensions at so per cent
of the salary and assessing the salar-
les of all employees to provide fund
for the payment of pensions was
ruled out of order.
An amendment excepting from the
provisions of the law "employes who
served in the army or navy of the
United States during the war of the
Rebellion. or who, as members of
the state militia organizations, aided
in suppressing the rebellion. and the
widows of such persons" was also
ruled out.
