BLOOMINGTON, IKB., June 15.—The future of the Bloomington ball club is a very uncertain quantity. The boys were 'due to open at Terre Haute to-day for two games, to be followed by a tour of nearly a month. Salaries are behind $100, and there is no money in the treasury and it is hard to tell what will be the outcome. The attendance at recent games has only been sufficient to]pay the visiting guarantee, leaving nothing for local expenses, and unless -the admirers of the game come to the front with backing the club will be disbanded. Exhibition games are played to-day and to-morrow, and it isbarely possible that the club may be able to start out next week. It looks, however, as if base ball was dead in Bloomington. special to tlie Express.

DANVILLE, III., June J'•S^The Bloomington club has disbadded. Decatur will be dropped from the league at the league meeting held in Urbana to-mor-row. I have telegrams from the managers of the Terre Haute, Lafayette, Dan-ville-and Champaign ball clubs saying they will stick, thereby making a fourclub league out of it. Logansport and Wabaah, Ind., may be admitted to the 'league. CHARLES G. KILPATRICK,

Secretary 1.1. B. C.

Yeatorday'a Indiana-Illinois League Gaines Special to tlie Express.

LAFAYETTE, June 15.—The game here to-day between Lafayette and Champaign was an excitable one. Sohaub, of the home team, made a home run on an over-the-fence, and Ryan, of the visiting team, did the same. The Cham paigns were defeated by the following score: Lafayette 3 2 0 3 0 0 0 5 0-13 Champaign 0 22011010—7

Batteries—Schaub and Harter, and Wilson and McUlnley.

DANVILLE, 111., June 15.—The following iB the score: Danville 0 0 2 0 6 0 7 3 1-19 Decatur 1 00 0 0000 0-1

Batteries—Danville, Hall, Veener and Tully Decatur, Wilmington, Bowen and Fear. Hits— Danville 13, Decatur 6. Sunday game prohibited.

Dugan^was a favorite with the crowa .at the park yesterday. Nelson pitched a good game yesterday and stands high as a ball player.

Stewart played yesterday, having almost recovered from his rheumatic attacks.

The ball game to-day at Danville will be for the benefit of the Johnstown sufferers.

Tbe Decatur club has signed a new battery from Memphis, and have started in te win a game.

The Crescents and the Buckeyes will play on the Seventh street grounds this morning at 10 o'clock.

The games between the home club and Champaign will be played on Tuesday and Wednesday, according to the schedule.

The Danvilles have signed Dick Parle, whom they .call "Old Reliable," and he will play first base. They expect to be invincible with him on tirst.

In the event of a four-club league the sohedule will have to be changed so that visiting clubs will play three gamee during each visit instead of two, as the schedule now stands. All of the misgivings about the league disbanding are unfounded. Mr. Schmidt, who, by the way, iB the hustler of the league, telegraphed last evening to Danville, Champaign and Lafayette. Danville replied promptly— "Danville will stick to the league."

The game to-day will be with the Grand Avenues, of Indianapolis. Manager Schneider teleg raped them yesterday and received a favorable reply. The Grand Avenues are considered tfce beat amateur ball club in the state, and were the champion club

of

the IndittnapoliB city league

until they were barred, from playing in the league. The home club does not know whether to expert their usual success or not. A good crowd is expected from Indianapolis,

Base ball circles were surprised and disappointed yesterday morning by tbe announcement that the league game arranged between the home club and the Bloomingtons would not be played, because the Bloomingtons had disbanded. Bloomington had been considered one of tbe stand-by clubs of the league and home club expected a close game. j/Manager Schneider telegraphed Bloom, ington to bring a team snd play an exhibition game to-day, but they answered saying that they had arranged a game there for Sunday. Not withstanding the fact that the report became widely circulated about the city, 700 persons were at the park. No admission fee charged and a game was played by two picked nines. The league nine was divided and the remainder of the players were of the Cresents. Schneider and

General Increase la the Amount Taxable Property In the Countj.

The township assessors have' made their reports to the county auditor preparatory to the meeting of the board of equalization to-morrow. The reports show a general increase in the amount of taxable property in the county, but the valuation in some of the townships is lees than last year. The decrease is the result of families moving from one town to the other and to the eity and taking capital with them. The following is tbe

THE WATER WORKS.

Change in the Ownership of the Stock, and Proposed Improvement*.

"The Terre Haute water works company has completed its financial arrangements for an extensive rebuilding of the system. Anew engine and pump house is to be erected, to provide for an additional capacity of 16,000,000 gallons per day. An extensive filtration system is to be added to the plant, and a large part of the present system relaid with much larger pipe. "About a quarter of a million of dollars is to be expended on the works, and the city of Terre Haute is going to have one of the best water works systems in the country. The present owners of this company have intonated a syndicate of Chicago and Eaatern capitalists in the company, some of whom have large interests in water works in various cities of the oountry, and a large experience in their management."

The above notice waa furnished by authority yesterday and confirms the rumors that have been afloat several days. It is understood that the home interest is yet. quite large, and that the new organization is based on the idea of along time inveatment, the expenditurea to be made immediately being of such extent that no return^ on the investment may be expected for several years to come.

The Red Men.

On Monday evening, June 17th, the Red Men of this city will exemplify the chiefs degree. There will be delegates present from Bloomington and Clay City to witness the work. It ia also expected that there may be a few

tramps

around after the oloee of. the degree work, and the metinbera of Tammany Hay Loft, No. 39K, will be on the look oat tor them. The visiting brethren -anticipate a pleasant time and the Ked Men of this city will aee that they are not disappointed.

AUDITO*

Bras *JJ».

•a* Complete* OM InShteCMaty.

Deputy Auditor John Bell haa pleted map of the reads in this county and bnngit in the auditor^ office ysetarday. It ahowa every waton road in the county, where it enters and where it leads to, and every road is numbered, ao that the nnmbets on the map will direct to corresponding numbers in the reoord books, snd in the books is found the history of each road. What is meant by the history of each road ia a brief reoord of every action taken by the boards of commissioners concerning each road. One raaann why he made the map was that many tracts of land are described in deeds by giving oertain roads as parts of the boundaries. In some instances the roads have been changed after the lands have been so described and it ia almoet impossible to identify the described lands. Thia map refers to the reoorda so that, although a road may have been changed, ita location at any given time can be determined exactly. The map also shows the locations of the towns in the county, the streama and lakes. The work waa completed after several month a work at night, and during idle momenta in which Mr. Bell had to read all of the records on roads. Heretofore, it bas been necessary to read oonaiderable of the reoorda to answer unimportant questions. Now it will be necessary to readonly that part of the reoorda that refer to the point in queetion, because the referencee to the reoorda by numbers on the map are concise and ac curate. The map ia complete in every particular, and shows 1,400 milee of road lor this county.

THB COW O&DINANCB.

I (Jnwl, It ia Not Minf Enforced—A Qaeatloa of Responsibility.

Since the cow ordinance waa panned, it I haa been discovered that there waa no provision in the ordinance as to whether the patrolmen ahould arrest the cows, or the matter ahould be left entirely with the city marshall. The latter cannot watch all arta of the city both day and night and lhe former think it improper that they should be required to leave their dia-1 trusts to drive a cow to the pound. It ia thought that some disposition will be made of the matter at the ooun-1 cil meeting Tuesday night. The ordinance has not been enforced strictly, partly for the above reasons and partly on account of carelesaneaa. Superintendent Stout ordered it enforced, Bome cows were impounded and owners fined, but no caees have been up recently.

THE NBW DAILY.

The Stock Compnr Organised and Offlc* era Elected—Data of Publication.

The subscribe re to stock in the new I independent evening newspaper met at the office of the Saturday Even-1 ing Mail laat evening and organized with the following offioera: Preeident, A. Z. Foster secretary, I Douglas C. Smith. Board of directors, in addition to the above named officers, are Eugene Dsbe, Frank Benjamin, Oakar Duenweg. The company will be known aa the Terre Haute-News publiahing company, and the paper will be called The Newa. It ia expected to close con-1 tracts for type and material thia week, and the Brat issue Will appear by August 1st.

A Slowly Falling River.

The river haa been falling unusually, slow since the late heavy raina. Al-1 though several days have elapsed Bince the rains there are about fourteen feet of water in the river yet. The slow fall ia a good thing for the farming landa that were under water because it will prevent waahing of crope and the destruction of fielda by washing away, the rails.

She Bunched Her Hits.

Emma Bunch, colored, living in the north part of the city, waa arrested on Friday night for drunkenness and de-1 straying furniture. -She Ifept a boarding ouae, and one of her boarders was out coring the evening. She grew angry about it and a&tiefled her wrath by breaking the bed to piecea.

Bitten by a Bos.

A son of L. M. Parish, of Pimento, was bitten yesterday by a dog, owned by I. N. Kester. The dog waa killed although it was not known if he waa mad and the boy. brought to this city to receive an application of the madatone.
