TERRIFIC ONSLAUGHT

BOSTON'S BATTERS HADE MINCE •MEAT OF BALTIMORE'S PITCHERS.

More Than Twenty-Five Thousand People Saw the Bmb Eaters Make Almost Sore of the Pennant.

Baltimore, Sept. 27.—Outside of a Httfe contingent of faithful Boston rooters who are making merry at the Eutaw House tonight, there is no joy in Baltimore. Boston his taken the rubber in the crucial (series, is ahead in the light for the pennant and there seems to toe out kittle probability that the Champions can save it. J1 offer, the "Wizard," Nops, the "South (Paw," and "Brother Joe" Corbett all went down like ripe grain in a hurricane before the terrific onslaught of Boston's battery Until what seemed at first to be a victory for the home team was finally turned into a rout,the Mke of which has been seldom Witnessed1 on a ball field.

More than 26,000 people saw it done, and they witnessed the downfall of their favorites with perfect good humor, gathering about the victors and cheering them ttieaxtily at the finish. Theecoryof what happened today may be briefly cold. Boston made the first run then Baltimore (made two, then each three, and the score Jms {tied when Boston added another to fits string. Then the visitors forged to the front with three more tallies. .And so it ^ran until that dreadful seventh inning. lCor.bett hod been crippled by a hot liner iearly in the play, Nops had been batted •4pui of the box a little later, and Hoffer had tteen hit for four runs. No one looked for a deluge, as Halter had apparently steadied himself, and no runs had been made off

Mm in two successive Innings. All at once it came. Single followed double, double followed single, player after player crossed the plate until the crowd grew dazed and wondered if it would ever end. IHoffer became discouraged and wanted to go off and »lt down, but Captain Robinson kept him in the box. Finally ttie fusllade of hits was ended and the scorers figured out that Boston had made nine runs, all at which were earned. That settled it, and although the Chaiwpiwns made a feeble rally In their half and batted out three runs, foiiew^ng- It uip with two more in the eighth, their efforts were in vain. Of the many hearty and spontaneous bursts of applause, none were more ringing ithan ithat which greeted Hamilton, when in the fourth inning, after being trampled upon and severely stunned toy Jennings at second (he made a grand run for home on Lowe's angle, colMded with Baltimore's fishy ^backstop and falling heavily, pluckHy crawled toward the base, almost fainting as he touched it.

THEY CUT TOO DEEP.

Bold Train Robbers Held Up a Northern Pacific Express.

Fargo, N. Da., Sept. 26.—The Northern Pacific passenger train from the east was held up and robbed at 2 o'clock this morning about three miles east of Hoorehead. The robbery was a very cool piece of criminal work. Engineer Hooker just after pulling out of Glynndon, noticed a man on the front platform of the mail car and a few moments later the fellow climbed over the tender of the engine and at. the point of a revolver, compelled the engineer to stop the train. The robber wore a black mask over his face. Several minutes later three other masked men came to the engine with Conductor Corcoran and a brakeman. Thoy were forced to mount the engine, and engineer Hooker was ordered to open the throttle.

The man with the revolver sat on the end of the tender with the weapon leveled, and urged the engineer with emphatic oaths, to increase the speed, and not until the train reached Moorehead was it known that the engine and mail car had been cut off from the other section of the train. The hold-up was a failure from the point of money secured. The robbers had evidently intended taking the express car but did not cut deep enough in the train. When a stop was made to secure the plunder, the leader of the gang discovered the mistake, and exclaimed with an oath: "Where in hell is the express car?''1

Disheartened with their attempt to get big returns, the robbers ordered the mail men out of the car, and went through the mail. All registered letters were taken and $20 was secured from Conductor Corcoan. Immediately on the arrival of the engine at Moorehead, Sheriff Bodkin and Sheriff Wilkins, of Cass county, organized a posse andi started in pursuit of the robbers, but although the entire surrounding country was covered, no trace of the criminals could be found.

THE TRIAL OF LUETGERT.

The State Will Call One Hundred Witnesses This Morning. Chicago, Sept. 26.—One hundred witnesses will be called by the state in the Luetgert case when the prosecution begins its rebuttal. These witnesses, men, women and children, are expected to give testimony contradictory to that presented by the defense—to impeach that eveidence and by a preponderance of numbers sustain the contentions of the lawyers who are advocating the conviction of the sausagemaker.

Mary Sieanmering's reputation will be attacked when the rebuttal witnesses are called. Her appearance on the stand Saturday has given the state the opportunity it wished, and a great mass of testimony is to be offered for the .purpose of showing that her relation with Luetgert is more than is ordinarily expected from a domestic. The story of Matthew J. Scholey, the barkeeper in the Maple Hotel at Kenosha, is to be refuted. It is asserted that the stae will be able to show that he was out of the city the day he swore was the one on which Mrs. Luetgert called at his hotel and asked for lodging.

VBIN VARIES FROM THREE TO FITS FEET IN THICKNESS.

Gold la of the Wire Kind/Can Be Seen With the Naked Eye and Picked Oat With the Fingers.

Seattle, Wash., Sept. 26.—The first authentic news concerning Washington's new Eldorado near Mount Baker, and how to get there is brought to Seattle by E. W. Saportas, president of the inforamtion and registry bureau, who went to the scene of the latest excitement last Saturday. According to' Mr. Saportas, the route is passable and not very difficult within five miles of the find. The last five miles, however, presents obstacles that would forever discourage any one not an experienced prospector, and mountaineer.

There is in Mount Baker, and its surrounding heights enough gold, says Mr Saportas, to keep prospectors busy for the next ten years. In samples of ore that were brought back, Mr. Bogardus, the assayer, declared that free gold existed in exceedingly good quantities. "I met many men," continued Mr. Saportas, "who came from Mount Tomohoy (Tomiboy), and they all reiterated the stories concerning the great strike of $10,000 to the ton made iu Bear Mountain in Tomohoy and several others have found ore equal to the discovery in Bear Mountain."

A special correspondent of the Evening Times, sends word from Summas as follows: '"The gold discoveries in the mountains of Whatcom county are beyond doubt the richest in the annals of the Pacific coast, or even in Alaska. So say the most experienced prospectors whom I have accompanied to the scene of the recent finds. The recent.find is in Bald mountain, situated in the northwest portion of Whatcom county. The mineral range runs northwest and southeast and today is located for thirty miles. There is no telling how much further it extends. "The vein in five claims varies from three to five feet in thickness. It runs under a layer of porphyry ledge in a serpentine manner, and auriferous shale appears in the ledge. It is free milling quartz of sugar and rose color, carrying copper and silver. The vein can be traced half a mile. The cropping is under solid porphyry. The gold is known as wire gold, and can be seen with the naked eye and picked out with the fingers. That great quantities of it exist there is no doubt."

WITH THE SCHOOLS.

Proposed Apprentice Course For the Polytechnic—At the Normal. There is a sentiment at the Polytechnic Institute and there had been for some time, that there should be a course provided, preparatory to matriculation, which woul fit a prospective student properly for the work in store for him. There has been a need felt for this department fbr a number of years. At a recent meeting of the board of managers of the college the matter was brought up and was referred to President Mees, who will consider it and make a report at the next meeting. There are 102 students enrolled at the Polytechnic. There are but two changes in the faculty from last year. J. W. Sheppard succeeds W. E. Burke as assistant professor of chemistry and W. J. Wires takes the place of W. P. Smith as instructor in the wood working shop.

The present term at the Normal is starting out with fine prospects. There have been enrolled so far 488 students, and it is believed this number will be swelled by about 200 more in the next few weeks. The higher requirements for admission has wrought changes in bringing a few more desirable students. As regards college the number enrolled is classified as follows: College graduates 7, graduates of commissioned high schools 72, graduates of non-commiss-ioned high schools 13, under college graduates 4, having life license 1, eight years' license 1, three years' license 10, two years' license 13, one years' license 73, examined for entrance 23, rejected 11. •Electric lights of 300 candle power were ordered placed at the three entraucee to the school which will be used only on nights of entertainments and lectures. There has been nothing but a gas light heretofore.

DEBS' SOCIAL DEMOCRACY.

The Convention Will be Called to Order This Morning.

Chicago, Sept. 28.—Notwithstanding the announemenct by Eugene V. Debs that the convention, of abor organizlations called for this city tomorow was "off," the Social Democracy leader tonight announced that the conference would be held, and that he himself would call the gathering to order.

The call for the present convention was issued on September 3d, and signed by T. J. Donnelly, J. R. Sovereign, W. D. Mahon, James O'Connell and E. V. Debs.

A meeting of that committee was to have been held in Chicago on Saturday, but Debs was the only member present. He acordingly announced there would be no convention. Sifice that time, the single tax delegates have come in, and it has been decided to go ahead. A committee waited upon Debs this evening, and invited him to call the convention to order tomorrow. He accepted and will deliver the opening address. It isp probable the coal strike and other trades union matters will be left alone during the conference. The result will be a discussion of the best means of securing what the call denominates as "The inalienable rights of every citizen under the constitution."

Only about ten delegates have arrived to attend the meeting.

The decision of the party leaders to nominate Controller Ashbel P. Fitch was leached after careful consideration of all candidates. The holders of city bonds and the leading bankers have urged the election of Mr. Fitch. They regard him as a safe man to be at the head of the finance department of Greater New York, and they insist that the office should, so far as possible, be regarded as non-partisan. The Tammany leaders have also decided to renominate Mr. Fitch, and it is probable there will be no candidate in the field against him. The Republicans and Tammany Hall men bo nominated and supported Theordore W. Myers for controller in 1890. (Lieutenant Governor Timothy L. Woodruff, of Brooklyn, ia to be permanent chairman of the convention in Carnegie Hall on Tuesday.

Chauncey M. Depew is to make the speech nominating General Tracy for mayor. The nomination will be seconded by Edward Lauterbach or District Attorney Oicott.

Chauncey M. Depew expressed himself on the political situation yesterday. He is confident of Republican victory. "I think General Tracy would be as strong a candidate as could be selected, and that he would make an excellent mayor in evtry respect," said Mr. Depew. "What, in your opinion, would be his chances of election with Low against him?" "With, say, Henry George in the field as a silver candidate against the regular Tammany candidate I do no£ see how the Republicans could fail of success. I regard Henry George as a silver candidate as a much more formidable obstacle to Tammany's success than would Mr. Low be to the regular Republicans. Of course, if Tammany Hall would nominate some very good man, such as ®lbrldge T. Gerry, it would give another turn to affairs. Such a man would greatly strengthen Tammany's chances and be a formidable opponent to any organization." "I have been spoken to about taking the position," continued Mr. Depew, "but have told my friends I would not take it. The first mayor of Greater New York will be one of two things—he will either be immortalized or he will at the end of his term be the laughing stock of 70,000,000 people. It there behooves to select the right man."

Patrick Jerome Gleason, armed with a petition which he said contained several thousand names, rushed into the headquarter® of the election board yesterday to get his nomination for mayor filed. The board was not in such a great hurry as Mr. Gleason, and informed him his nomination could be filed before October 28th.

SHE THAT IS TO BE

FBOSPBCTIVK MOTHER IN law" FIGHTS A DAUGHTER'S INTENDED.:-

He Whips Oat a Revolver—The Polio* Have s/r a Chase After the Fellow, Who ,'{' '-j Is Now In Jail.

There will hardly be more excitement at the race track this afterpoon if Star Pointer breaks his record than there was on Park street yesterday evening when Charles Rogers, with a revolver in his hand, and Mrs.* Anna Rusk, armed with a club squared off for a duel to death. Mrs. Rusk is the prospective mother-in-law of Rogers and but for the timely arrival of neighbors the prospective son-in-law would today be mourning over the cold form of Angle Rusk's mother.

The entire outfit lives in the notorious Nichols block on Park street between First and Second streets. There are several houses in the Nichols string and while many thoroughly respectable people have been known to live there the place does not bear the very best reputation. Charles Rogers and Angle Rusk were to have been married long ago. They have been engaged for several months and Rogers has been living with the family for some time. In fact, he has b£en keeping the family, so it is said. When he announced a few days ago that he and Angle were to be married the mother became enraged and declared she would kill herself. She went to her bed room and soon came back into the sitting room with a paper of morphine in her hand. Angle Rusk was about to remonstrate with her mother when Rogers told Mrs. Rusk to go ahead and take the drug.

He told her he was perfectly satisfied for her to commit suicide, but just to please his fiancee he sent to the grocery ctore and bought two pounds of lard which he was ta have ready to crowd down Mrs. Rusk's throat in case she did decide to go iience. He told Angle this would bring her mother back to life In case she took anything. Mrs. Rusk took the sober second thought and decided to continue to live in Terre Haute. Yesterday she had another quarrel with her son-in-law that Is to be. She aocused him of this and that and he called attention to her associations with Charley Whitney and Ed McGowan. The colored population finally became mixed up in the war of words: and the wind up of the whole case was that Mrs. Rusk picked up a club and Rogers got his gun. The police were called and Rogers gave them a chase. Boys mounted on bicycles followed the man and kept him in sight until Patrolman Westbrook could catch up with the procession. Rogers cropped his revolver in the chase but it fas found. He is charged with carrying deadly weapons and with drawing the same on Mrs. Ruck,

For Another Biff Cnal Strike Kansas City, Sept. 26.—Local labor leaders aay twelve organizers of the United Mine Workers of America have been put to work among the coal miners of the territory between the Rock mountains and the Mississippi river and will spend the rest of the year in trying to get all of the coal diggers of the territory closely organized for the struggle that will come January 1st, if there is not another adjustment of pricea by the mine operators at that time. The leaders profess to believe that by that time all the miners of the west will be so in harmony that they can be bandied and thai another struggle will come then. The work of getting ready to stop all coal mining will be carefully planned so that it can be done if it is considered necessary at that time.
