SURPRISED THE BLAINE M Proceedings In the Meeting of the Credon- tinls Committes ot to The king. MiNNEAPOLIS, Meun., Juno 8,—Tho Blaine people met with a surprise this aftornoon in the committee on credontials, They found a counter plan at work to defeat their purpose to approve the proceedings of the national committeo 1n the matter of the contests, and when a vote was taken on the delogates-at- largo they found themselves in tho minority, aftor having confidently looked to victory in all the contests, » previous test vote having shown that thoy were in a majority and con- trolled the committee by a majority of 6 votes. Ttwas only one vote by which they lost and subsequently thoy pulled themselves togother and carried a motion to adjourn, with another motion to reconsider pending. Blaioe men in the delegation said it was a sot-back, but predicted that thines would come out all right in the end. Reforo the roport was prepared for submission. to tho convention it would be found that they wore again in the majority. ‘Thoy say tonight the fight will bo remewed and that they will ocarry their point and seat tho anti-Mossly faction in Alabama, who have been given seats by the national committeo, The nows, however, gave a great deal of satisfaction and en- couragement to the Harrison men, who up to this time have boen bitterly complaining of the way they were being treated by the com- mittee on credentials, Some of their loaders exprossed a fear that the committee dia not vropose to report at all, and were in favor of fighting the committtee on the floor of tho convention, K'rom this they wore rosirained by the fact that their defeat meant a loss of prestige and they realized that the provosi- tion that the aelegates were bound by in- structions was weaker than the one in hand. A Preliminary Skirmish, Tho first moveinent on the part of tha Har- rison nien looking to more speedy Work on tho part of tho credentials cominittee was made in the convention when Cogswell of Massachusetts, as chairman of the committee, asked for more time. The move was cautious and involved no fight. It was simply a pre- liminary skirmish for an advantageous posi- tion. Spooner of Wisconsin was put forward by the udministration men and to questions ho was given the informution that with good luck a report ought to be made tomorrow, and that the permanont roll might ve mado up at auy time so far as uncontested cases were concerned, An effort made in committeo previously to have these cases reported in advance of the roport on the-contested cases had failed by a vote of 22 to 26, and 1v was.for the purpose of eliciting tho fact that Mr. Spooner had made bis inquiries. [n speaking of the report Chairman Cogswell acknowledged to a re- porter that the anti-administration men were in majority and controlled affairs, In the Alabama Contest. When the committee reassembled it pro- coeded with a little more exvedition, and by the time for adjournment for supper had almost comploted consideration of the Ala- bama contests, which were the worst taken up. The first caso eailed was from tho Eighth district, and beveg tho report of the subcom- wittce was approved with substantial unanimity Tho anti-Moseley delegates wero perma- neutly enrolled, A fight was made on Hendricks and Fitzpatrick, the representa- tives of the faction headed by Stevens and Gee of New Idea, known as the anti-Mose- leys in the Third Alabawa district, but a poll showed 27 Blaino to 22 Harrison votes and they were also enrolled. In the Fourth dis- trict it was also demonstrated that there was @ good workiug majorivy and the anti-Mose- loyites wore sustaloed in their rights to soats, ‘The Fifth district was also carried, but when it came to the delegates-at-large and the contest uver the Ninth district, the ad- ministration forces musterod strong aud exe- cuted a skillful coup d'etat. They carried the day temporarily for the Moseloy, or office- tolders, faction by & voto of 24 to Trylug to Acconnt for It. in deseribing how it was done one of the of the committee said that a coupla cllows suddenly jumped over to the otner kin and another wus absent. s made to reconsider and an ad- journment was carried until $:30, when the motion to reconsider will come up and the fight ve rencwed.

Not- withstanding that the delegates solected to the Chioago convention go uninstructed, the convention was clearly a Cloveland body, the mention of the ex-president’s name at various times eliciting tromendous applause, The platform adopted calls for & gener: reform of the tarifl laws of the country, con- sisting mainly in o reduction of auties to the lowest rate consistent with the needs of an economical administration of the govern- ment; denounces the McKinley bill, which the plaiform says is an abuse of the taxing powers, forming corporations and trusts and discriminating againsy the farming and other industrial classes, compelling them to buy in a protected market and sell tn one open to the competition of the world. Reciprocity is arraigned us a fraud, invented for the ben- efit of politiciens in the interest of the re- publican_party. The admiuistration of Grover Cleveland is endorsed by the highost praise, and liborat appropriations for the im- provement of the rivers are de- manded. The platform concludes &s follows: “The delegates selected by this conveation to the national convention go unmstructed and untram- meled, and we commit to their judgment the duty of making the best selections possible for presidont and vice president, looking to the maintenance of democratic principles and tho success ot the party in November."

Inquiry of the officials and men only developed the information that they were going to Powder river, at which place a temporary camp would be mado and the troops await further orders rrom head- quarters. When the troops first arrived a large num- ber of people were apprehonsive that the state was to be put under martial law and considerable feeling of resentment was mani- fested, Tup Brk correspondent was in- formed this afternoon on good authority that shortly after the troops reach Powder river Johnson county will be subjected to martial law. Every one here is opposed to martial law, as it is believed that the civil authorities aro able to contend with all lawlessness if the state officers will allow the law to take its course. The soldiers are camped at the stock yards, about one-half- mile from Gillette, and wiil leave for Powder river about 9 o'clock Thursday morning.

Everybody felt ugly, and there wasn't a corn in the house that didn’t go around imploring some reckless wight to walk on it. Cautious pooplo had hard work to steor clear of the obtrusive protuberances, Dr. Conway was thero with his flaming curtains and ho took particular pains to re- poatedly impress upon tho crowd that he was with diffiulty resiraining ms warlike whiskers, He wanted blood or a black eye, and when he wont up aganst Dr. Howara the chances wero that he would get both, but ‘the simoon blew over leaving no dead men strowed promiscuously around. It all came about over the discussion of the report of the fnvestigating committoe, which was dead against the Cotnor modical facuity. For four long hours did the discussion last, and only whon the oclock struck midnight was a voto finally roached, deciding that the faculty must -go. There were criminations and recriminations, wild disputing and open abuse, in fact everything but good order ana parliamentary observances. At times the meeting resem- bled A ward primsry more than tho calm deliberations of a supposedly digmfied body of professional gentlomen, and it was no wonder that the four ladios present drew closer into their corner at times, anda on ono occasion raised their voices in frightened protest against the demonstrations of physi- cal violence that momentarily promised a most sensational denouement. They Passed the Lie, The Cotnor faculty was bitterly arragnod by oue sido and as energotically defonded by the other. Methods of teaching and state- ments nadvertently made by mombers of the faculty were remorselessly trotted out, and it then took but a little while to roach the low level of personal abuse. The lie was passed several times under the slightly moderated form of ‘that is a false- hood,” and tightly cleuched fists wore ex- citedly shaken under offending noses. Dr. Carriker and Dr, Latta led tho faculty forces and Dr. Madding and Dr, Koys en- gingerud tho opposition. Dr. Keys demanded to krow why ha and Dr. Mclntyre were let out of the faculty, and lnformed by Dr. Latta that 1t was be- cavse Dr. McIntyre was incompetent and be- cause Koys was constantly conniving at the downfall of the institution. He further inti- mated that Keys was disgruntled at not being made dean of the institution. Dr. Keys entered a gencral denial and de- manded a retraction and Dr. Latta took it back. Dr. McIntyre also had a short but enter- teining seance with Dr. Latta, who asserted that Melntyro sent a private syphilitic patient to the institution. Dr. Mclutyre excitedly juraped from his chair, declaring the statoment false, and made his way toward Dr. Latta, until the president and one or twg othors caught him by the arm and held him firmiy. He asserted that ne was *not going to hit the old man,’” and the “old man’’ shook his white crest de- flantly and vociforated that he wasn't afraid of McIntyre or any other man on earth. A 1a Chawley Mitchell, Dr. Conway jumped in and patted Latta on the shoulder and told him to ‘‘call Mc- Intyre a liar if he wanted to and he would 00 bim through with it,” and his noisy arpegglos vibrated wildly 1n tho surrounding excitement, which was gotting thick enougn to eat with a fork. Tt was really quite interesting, but nobody died thero either, and the spectators disap- pointealy drow a long breath once more. The faculty was represented in person, having come in on an evening train, and ond member was evidently prepared for tho fray, for he flashed a copy of one of Dr. Mad- ding’s prescriptions and proceeded to demon- strate that the doctor aforesaid was about as consistont as fresh oggs in July. Anothor member hopped onto the dazed Mr. Madding and said he couldn’t practico in this state until ho attonded n course of lectures somewhere. Mr, Madding dramati- cally informed hitm that he was a gilt edged and thoroughbred prestidegitatour with actual facts, and the Lincolnite ate his own words in a half hearted sort of way that indicated that he didn’t relish ’om, and another tragedy was averted and another sinful soul given time to repent. Both Dead Willing. Dr. Howard tried to talk but was fro- quently interrupted by members who raised pownts of ordor. ‘‘See here, Mr. President,’’ tinaily remarkea the dootor, with his white hairs blushing 80 as to keep the unbleached ones from feeling lonesome, “I'm going to have this floor, or I'm going to lick some- body.” Dr. Conway, who had beon sat upon whilo attempting to explain how he was still o member of tha association and unless the association so published it in the morning papers ho would sue the wholo concern tor a fortune or two, he thought he saw another chanoe to get even with the world, and roll- ing up his sleoves and kicking a chair out of the way, fiorcely declared, “If you will clear a ring there, Dr, Howard con lick mo right now.” » That was all 1t amoanted to, as Dr. How- ard at onco began to tell how ashamed he folr, because he belonged to such an organiza tion, and vowed he would never darken its doors ngain until he saw evidences of a rac- jcal change. 1t had cost him #0 to como hereund loarn something, and the membors simply wanted to show him how to fight. “That wasn't what ho was thoro for, as he could get all thatat home for nothing. He didn’t fight indoors anyway, but out in the street ho could whip any man on earth, even if he was 00 yoars old himsolf. It might have been going yet and there is no telling whero it would have ended had not the entis forced the question to a vote and then tnoy had 'em. It didn’t all come in & minute, though, as everything was debatabio in' that house— motions to adjourn, to lay on the table, or the provious question, it was all_tne same thing, It they couldn’t spenk to the question they could utleast frez their minds, and if you think they didn't go it it is because wasn't within & mile of the Paxton last ‘night. SOUTH SIDE CITAZENS, They Meet and Discuss Park, Sewers and the Rallrond Bonds Question, The citizens meeting, at a hall near the corner of Sixth and Plerce streets last night, resulted in a flow of oratory of unusual volume and variety, Owing to the lateness of the hour at which the meetiug began business only three sub- jects—the south side park, the sewer ques- tion und the Nebraska Ceatral bond problem ~—were discussed; but if the meeting had be- gun earlior the free silver question, the Ber- ing sea difficulty and the Minneapolis con- ventlon might bave been disposed of just as well as not, for the orators appeared to be equal to almost any emergency or demand. Stated the Objeet of the Meeting. John Butler was elected chairman of the meeting and Mr. E. J, Cornish stated the ob- jeot for which the meoting was ocalled as he Understooa it. He said it was for the pur- poso of discussing the south side park ques tion. Mr, Cornish thought that the citizen of the south side should not be in too much of @ hurry about geiting @ park, now that they had the pledge of the ey Sotncil that the funds het 4sido for o sout sido park woula not be diverted to any othe r purpose. They wanted a park, but they should opposo the purchase of a swall tract. He thought that it would be much better to walt six moatbs till the city had power to coudemu, wnd then if [ioas for park oould ot be purcbased they could be condemned, He believed in baviog @ good, large park sad in having it purchased ull at once, not in sections, There was deuger, he thought, of having the woney «quandered for other purposes if a part of 1t | sncald bo invested for a small piece of land with the in‘~ntion of buying more later. Mr. Charies Elguttor was of the same opin- ion. 'Ho wanted to see the south side pro- vided with a good, large park, but he thought | it would be poor policy to encourage the park commissioners eround, hoping 1o buy the rost later. Mr. Elgutter called atteation to the fact that the north sido had soveral parks, while tho south side had none. He held that the south side had boen slighted und the only way for that part of tho city to get even was to domand just troatmmnt. Mr. Charlos Conoyer exprossed himself as favoring the idea of waiting until the com missioners could purchase a largo vark in a suitable looation instead of urging them on to purchase iuaccessable and insufficiont tracts, Walting for Them to Make Up Thelr Minds, Councilman Munro was present and was asked to nddress tho moeting. Ho said thero was no inclination oa the part of the city council or the park commissioners to with tho peoplo of tho south the commissioners wore simply waiting for tho peoplo of tho their miuds as to deal unjustly side. ‘I'he council and south side to make up whore they wantod the park. Then Mr. Van Duyno sprong question aad chargéd that the city had not done the fair thing by sido, of over $10,000 for sew side would have but $5,000, thoroughly explained by Mr. and the meoting then sorios of resolutions declarin, it ws tho wishes of tlio people of the south side 9,000 sot asido for a south sido park until such time us & suitablo and sufficlent tract of ground could bo purchased and that nono of tho fuuds should be expended for any other purposo. And then the Nebraskn Contral bond quos- tion came up, Krnest Stuht wis 0pposod. to tho bonds and made a vehement speech against the proposition, Councilman Munro, Charlos Elautter, Mr. Gedultig and others svoko earuestly It favor of the bond proposi- 100, tho bonds, holding that the voting of bonds Waula b of nio material benefl to tho oity.

The objoot of the conference is to secure from the Sugar trust the adoption of a uniform basis ugon which sugar shail bosold.

It is expected that the conference will bo representative of the job. bors of the eastern oities, a8 the matter to bo considered is ono of gréat importance to th trade. A proposition has alrondy beon submitted to the various grocers' associations. It was submitted by . W. Lmbusch, who was the Primo movor 1n the movement to establish | the Wholesalo Grocors association, His | proposition calls for the uniform price for each day by all the retiuers of tho trust, tol- ographic advice of daily market to oach job ving contor, equalization of prices for com- petitive points through the system of schod- uling or freight allowanco to the retailers, and n robate on monthly purchases cons tingent upon a_maintenance of the price of sugars as fixed by tho schedulo, Tt 13 hoped that the trust will bo roady moot the docision of the conference, hope is warranted by a lotter writton to the Southorn Wholesalers association by Presi- noyer of the trust, in which he Vhilo wa foel disposed 1o co.operato 4 the wholosalo trade 1n the direction of soouritg for them @ fair remuneration for thoir services in distributing cur product, any plan looking to tuis end must originatd with thom and bo tho result of their mutual agroomont as to what is best for their inter- ost.” 1i fs rogardod #s & promiso that If the coming conforonco of wholesalers will agree upon & basis for distribntion, the Sugar trust will adopt that basis, Much differouce 1n to be looked for, howaeyer, in _arrangiug details. Many members of the New York Who'osalers wssociation are openly opposed to incrensing the revate from one-eight of a centa pound, Which they how receive, to onc-quartor of a cent a pound, A similar conforence to that to bo held to- morrow was held in April, 1t failed i ite objeet, largoly bocause tho attendanco was s0 small. to more railroads would not help the city any. . Railronds, ho claimed, had cut but a very slight figure in the growth of Omaha. Mr. Godultig rather took Mr. Stuht off his foct hy asking him how much his land would have been worth if the Union Pacifie and B. & M. had not built their tracks close to it. Mr. Stuht was obliged to acknowledge that he had made monoy by aceident. Why Some People Opposed the Bonds, “You and some more of these people who are opposing the bonds,” saia Mr. Gedultig, “have got rich by accident, by the railroads buulding along, pastor through vour la and now you are not willing to help the city !.)lm‘t has been the means of making you rich.” Mr. Butler held that the voting of the Ne- braska Central bonds would impose o tax of just §37 upon every taxpayer in Omaha. This statement was vigorously combatted by Mr. Elgutter and others. A majority of those present were in favor of the bonds, and as the discussion pro- ceeded the sentiment In favor of the bonds seemed to grow. Every argumentin oppo- sition to the bonds was met fairly and_suc- cessfully by those who favor the proposition. Mr. Elgutter showed that the oity would receive from the Nebraska Central company, during the next thirty years, moro monoy in taxes than the amount of the bonds. This called for a long hurangue from Mr. Butler upon the tax shirking proclivities of the Union Pacific and other railroads. As a wholo the meeting proved to be very favora blo to the bond proposition. There were a number of Iaboring men pre- sent who went to the meeting onposed to the bonds, but they went home in a brown study almost convinced that they should vote for the bonds, while others were complotely con- vinced that the opposition to the bonds was really a blow at tho prosperity and welfaro of the city and they will work and vote for the bonds, —_—— Salt Lake Plumbers Strike.
