METCALF BROS. Wants Blg Damages, George Burke has commenced a sult in the district court for damages in the sum of $20,000, making the Omaha & Council Bluffs Bridge company and the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Kallway company codefendants The suit Is the outgrowth of the Lower Main street accident, about two years ago, when 2. . Holmes ‘lost his life by being caught in a collision between a motor and a freight train. Burke was conductor on the motor train that was destroyed. He demands a judgment from the motor company because the rheostat was not properly protected from water and electric currents, there was no insulation on the handles of the current lever and brake, and the machinery was imper- fect fn other respects. The Burlington Rail- way company s made defendant, on the ground that the train was moving at a rate far in excess of the four-mile an hour limit lald down in the city ordinances, and no flagman had been stationed at the crossing as provided by law. The plaintiff wants damages because of alleged injuries to his legs, body, head and spine, of a permanent nature.

The second monthly banquet of the Mer- chants' and Manufacturers' association was held last evening at the Grand hotel, and there was a large attendance of the business men of the. city. After the spread had been disposed of and the cigars were smoul- dering, Luis Jackson, industrial commis- sioner of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Raflway company, was introduced and made the principal speech of the evening, a com- monsense address upon the possibilities of the middle west from an industrial stand- point. Ho cautioned the citizens small manufacturing enterprises slip while looking for big ones. lowa has coal and and enterprise as well, and is therefore at a great advantage over Minneapolis and St Paul, which have the enterprise but no coal within 300 miles, By encouraging small be- ginnings, an impulse can be given manu- facturing enterprises which cannot but re- sult in building up the middle west. Market gardening must be encouraged, and tree planting should be lookel upon as one of the against letting most important things before the people of Towa, Nebraska and Colorado. Grape cul- ture has already reached a high mark. The manufacture of paving brick Is coming west, and it is only a question of time when all Towa will be paved with brick of her own manufacture. Council Bluffs and Omaha, | with their combined population of 225,000, furnish an excellent market for manufac: tured goods of all kinds, which must prove tempting to capital. The moral influence of such an associa- tion, Mr. Jackson continued, is better than the "securing of a blg factory, for it can make the town and its inducements to capital known all over the country and unite the | business men of the region in an effort toward upbuilding its commercial interests, Several other speakers were called upon and | responded with short speeches. Manuwa Trains Today. Manawa trains will run regularly today. Complete the holiday by visiting the lake. Looking Over the Ground, W. V. Powell of Vinton, L. A. Tanqueray of Pueblo, Colo., Charles Daniel of Atlanta, Ga., and Willlam White of London, Ont., arrived in the city yesterday morning over the Northwestern railway and were met at the depot by a committee from the Merchants' and Manufacturers’ assoclation. During the day they made a tour of the city with a view to acquainting themselves with | its advantages as a proposed site for the na- tion1l headquarters of the Order of Railway Telegraphers. In the afternoon they attended the races at the Driving park and in the evenlng they went to the Merchants' and Manufacturers' association banquet at the Grand hotel. They have nothing to say as to their final determina- tion in the matter, and the result of their visit will not be known for some little time. They do not hesitate to say, however, that they are pleased with the general appearance | of Council Bluffs and the reception accorded them by the citizens. Whichever of the three cities, Council Bluffs, Terre Haute and Peoria, wins the prize will also have the national headquarters of the Order of | Rallway Trainmen, as the two orders are so closely connected 'that they must be kept together. If the Council Bluffs business men give the Merchants' and Manufacturers' asso. ciation the right kind of support there is no reason why the present efforts of the as- soclation should not be crowned with suc- cess.

When the hearse, followed by the short procession of a dczen | carriages, had emerged from the white house gate, it came to a halt In_ front of the troops drawn up in the order given. The troops saluted; General Ruger and his aldes lifted their hats and the Marine band struck into the solemn strains of “Nearer My God o Thee.” To this music the military detach- ments marched past the hearse and when the last company had passed the carriages, containing the president and Mrs. Cleveland and members of his official household, fell into line, the relatives not accompanying the funeral cortege, but driving privately to the station shortly before train time.

LONDON, May 20.—At a meeting of lead- ing city bankers and merchants held at the banking house of Glynn, Mills, Currie & Co., it was decided to form a gold standard de- fense assoclation, and Mr. Bertram Currie, the chairman of the meeting, was elected president of the new assoclation. The fol- lowing address was then forwarded to the chancellor, Sir Willlam Vernon Harcourt: ““We, merchants and bankers of this city, desire to address you with reference to the discussion which has taken place in Parlia ment on the currency question. We are constrained that we view with grave ap- prehension any change in the system of cur- rency which has prevailed without intermi sion in this country since 1816. We believe that any serious atiempt to modify it by the adoption of silver as a standard of value, either alone or concurrently with gold, will be followed by consequences dangerous fo the trade and commerce of the country, and further, if it were possible that such a meas- ure should not only become a law, but made effective in practice, it would disturb con- tracts, injure credit, check enterprise, and thus prove disastrous to both capitalists and wage-earners.” The signatures to the above address include the names of Brown, Shipley & Co.; Frull- ing & Goschen; Morton, Rose & Co.; Ralli Bros.; Charles Raphael & Co.; Barclay, Bevan, Tirton, Ranson, Bouverie & Co.; Currie & Co.; Roberts, Lubbock & Co.; Schroeder & Currie, and the directors of the National and Provinclal Bank of Englarnd; the London and County bank; the London and Westminster Bank of England; the Union Bank of London; Lloyd bank; Paris Banking company, and the Alliance, Martins bank; the Union 'Discount company and the Bank of New South Wales. The chancellor of the exchequer sent the following reply to the address “I concur entirely in the opinion that the experience of well nigh a century has proved that the present system of currency s suited to the wants of this great commercial coun- try, and that to depart therefrom would be disastrous to the trade and credit of the United Kingdom. You may rely upon it that her majesty's government will not give coun- tenance to any change in the fundamental principle of our monetary system, nor in any discussion in which they may be calted to take part will they admit any doubt of their intention to firmly adhere to the single gold standard.” RUMOR STARTLING FROM CHINA Japan and France ¥acing Each Other in a Warlike Attitude, LONDON, May 20.—A Times special from Shanghai this afternoon says that alarming reports are current at Shanghal.
