Y., Oct. 20.—~The Roosevelt train arrived bere a little behind time and the greatest enthusiasm of the entire trip was manifested In the city and at the train This was due partly to the presence of Carnell colloge students. A trolley car was in waltiug for the party at the depot and it passed down the main streets toward the meeting pluce it had to go through the lines of students exhibiting the wildest enthusiasm. Some of the students had dinner pails in their hands and wore blue jumpers. A parade was formed with three bands and a great crowd of students and citizens. The governor dwelt upon the features of the McKinley administra- was tion. He sald to one of the committee *“1 shall aopswer all questions goodna- turedly.” In the crowd circulars had been distrib- uted asking him his record as (o ssertions he was allexed to have made regarding farmers and laborers and containing & plece of verse called “Rufan Rider Roosevelt.” It was about an heur after the governor arrived at the stand before he got well into his speech, the boys insisting upon singing college airs to campaign words and gIving their yells. The governor began with a phrase calculated to put all the students in good humor. He sald: “T am glad to be with you this afternoon and I want to say that on the 6th of November moxt I hope to see the republican party win with a greater score than that with which you whipped Dartmouth last Satur- lay, 22 to 6.7 After saying this the speaker had to walt for fully five minutes befors the tumult stopped and" he started agaln, saying: I will keep up a serfous study of football Needless Den of Silly Rumor. In part Governor Roosevelt said: 1 want to call your attention to one or two phases of the campalgn, but before doing £o I want to preface what [ say by & correction of a local democratic paper. ‘That paper stated in appropriate headlines that I had said four years ago that I would end an army to Washington to psevent the nauguration of Mr. Hryan if elected.

Now, gentlemen, it ould have been perfect folly to have put e man on the team on account of nis color, and it would have been equally as oolish to have kept him off on account of is color. 1s not that so? The governor's question was met by a volley of “Yes, yes. Now, all T want Is that when a man in civil lite shows himself to be as go: an as this man showed himself to be a !‘ t ball you give him the same kind of a ow. In closing he sald Hit the Line Hard."

Notwith standing the early hour there was a throng | of people at the railroad station and Mr Bryan was compelled to respond to their | calls. He had not yet risen, but he dressed | promptly and went to the rear platform of the Rambler, where he was soon jolned by to Mrs. Bryan, who will remain with him dur- | ing the week.

Then he made a speech, telling the people that he had been with Mr. Bryan from the beginning of the campaign and he was sure there would be a landslide in his favor. There are galns everywhere, he sald. n in Canton, the president’'s own home, whera Mr. Bryan received only irty-seven votes in 1896, there is now a democratic club of between 400 and 500 members, and he concluded Canton is omly a sample of what 18 golng on.

The demonstration in Brooklyn one of the largest political outpourings in the history of the borough.

Dietrich a Address Re NEBRASKA CITY, Oct. 29.—(Special.)— The republicans of Nebraska City and Otoe county gave a magnificent demonsta- tion tonight In honor of Charles H. Diet- rich and E. J. Burkett, candidates for gov- ernor and congressman, both of whom de- livered addresses at the Overland theater. A parade and torchlight procession nearly a mile in length formed at the court house and covered the principal streets of the city. More than 1,000 men carried torches. Many political clubs from nearby towns and country precincts were present and marched in the parade. There were a large num- ber of floats and transparencies among the latter one reading, “Great 1s Tammany and Croker is its prophet, W. J. Bryan" A fine display of fireworks added to the enthusi- asm of the occasion. The theatre was packed full at 8 o'clock and it was found neces- sary to lock the doors to prevent the im- mense crowd in the street from loading it beyond (ts capacity. Judge Paul Jessen, was chairman of the meeting, and intro- duced the speakers after a couple of rous- ing campaign songs by.the Imperial quar- tette of York. Both candidates received an ovation. Mr. Burkett, made a forcible and logical speech, giving the so-called para- mount and other {ssues thorough discus sion. Mr. Dietrich presented the state i sues in a masterly and convincing way and by his open, frank and business like manner completely won the good will of the people of this city. Conditions in Otee county were never as favorable for a sweeping re- publican victory as they are this year. B. J. Burkett bltcan | Pronibition Train on Its Last Week. SYRACUSE, N. Y.

MAN WHO ALWAYS WANTED MONEY HMad (o Have Cash and When He Found He Couldn't Get it from the Mid-Roaders He Sold Ont 10 the Fusionists, OMAHA, Oct To the Populists of Nebraska: An article appears in the Omaba World-Herald today under the heading, Deaverism Fully Exposed,” which contains some iruths and some falsehoods, but more than anything else shows the desperation of the fusion gang in this state. 1 know of my own personal knowledge that the fusion managers and their agents in this state are oftering all kinds of bribes to the mid-road workers for what they are pleased to term “exposures.” Regarding A. B. Hartley of Custer county, braska, who has given them a signed atement at g0 much per sign, 1 will say at some time during the month of June Mr. Hartley became apparantly interested in the mid-road movement and offered his services heip organiza Custer county. After correspondence with him I found that he was nothing but a protessional to somn Uleg puller” and that he was ready fo de- | ;50 ypjer any circumstances have used this | tetter trom Mr sert the causa when he found he could make no money out of it. His statement contalns some truths aud I have never yet and never deny the truth. But when he states that I, in a letter to him, and gives what he purports to be the letter, offered him trip tickets, ete., he states an absolute false- hood and I challenge him or any one else to produce such a letter from me to him The facts are he simply lie: and I am go- Ing to show that he received or is to re- celve a consideration for it. 1 have a great many letters trom Mr. Hartley, all the time asking for money, money, money. Want of money seemed to be the burden that was pressing him down. He always pretended to me that he was an earnest mid-roader, but continually stated that he bad to bave money to work with in Custer county. Be- lieving that he was misrepresenting the honest populists of Custer county, I made & trip up there, saw some of our friends and told them what Hartley sald about them, that they all wanted money to carry on the campaign with. His {nsinuations were resented hy all the populists in the county that 1 saw. Declines to Be Held Up. On August 12 Mr, Hartley wrote me de- manding a large sum of money and threat- ened dlvers and various things Iif it was not sent to him directly, immediately. In reply to that letter I wrote him as follows OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 14, 19%0.-Mr. A B Hartley, West TUnion, Neb.: Dear Sir- Replying to your letter of the 12th inst. and your other fetters of recent dats will may that it is impossible for me to get a pisy for the wife of Mr. F. as you request, and also 1 am sure that you have got & Wrong fdea of the campalgn. You are not being discriminated against in the least. I have given the most careful attention to your re- quests, but have not seen my way clear to rant them. You state that you know help a8 been given to other parties in the county. Bo far as I am concerned I do not know of any such thing and don't believe your statement to be true, as I think I would know something about it it it was true. Your statement In_your letter about tha 315,000 conversation had with me you know well enough is & faisehood, and why do vou make such statements to me? T would be pleased to have you or any one else co-operate with us in doing what we can for our ticket this vear, but 1 am not in the habit of belng held up by any one and threats have no terrors for me. 1 have been working night and day for this cause doing _everything I could for ita int s and I shall continue to do 0. Re- spectfully, D. CLEM DEAVER On August 18 T received a letter from him in which be says: Yours received and contents noted. You may have meant that you would not take thousands and let that gang in, but I say it is impossible to get men Interested enough to do this work and make proper showing and pay thelr own expenses, and they had net ought to. Now In case we can't get funds here we can't do good work and we have no time to lose. I have put in $25 cash, besides lots of time A postscript to the same lettor reads “I don't think you understand our posiiion fully as stated above, but I want to whip the democrats just as hard as you do.” Getting Rid of Hartley. Recognlzing that the party had made a mistake in selecting him as committesman 1 set about to get the party rid of him as easily as possible and on August 21 Mr. Hartley wrote me as follows: It you think best I will cheerfully restgn in favor of either Judge H. J. Shinn of West Union or James Stockham of Broken Bow, as [ cannot take the time and money to thoroughly organize the county like Custer "ang. do Juktica to our movement without sufficient funds to get action on »od men in different parts of the county. nd I do not want it sald afterward that I falled in doing my duty I have not seen Mr. Hartley at any time during the summer or had a letter from him but what he has continually had some scheme to try to get money out of me he cvidently believing the stories that have been printed in the fusiom press about our mid-road organization. Week before last Mr. Hartley came to Omaha stopping at the Thurston hotel where he was taken sick. He sent word to me that he was at the Thurston hotel and was sick and wanted me to come and see him. I immediately responded. I found him in pretty bad condition, but true to his habit I was not in the room three minutes until he wanted to borrow $10 from me. Seeing the condition he was in and belleving that he needed medical aid, I advised him to £0 to the Presbyterian hospital, where he went. 1 called to see him two days after and found that he was much better and was getting ready to start home. He pressed me hard agaln to borrow some money, stating that he needed $10 with which to pay his bills and I let him have $4 1 then had with me and agreed to send him $6 the next day so that he could pay his Omaha bills as he sald he wanted to. He stated that within & few days after he would get home he would have some col- lections coming In and would send the money back to me. He has not done so up to this time, Hartley Writes to the P On September 13, Mr. Hartley wrote a public letter which was printed in Custer county papers, which reads as follows WEST UNION, Neb., Oct. 13, 1900.—Ed{- tors Chief: As my resignation as state commitieoman of the mid-road populist party has brought out some editorials in your paper, I deem it right that I briefly #ive my reasons for the same.

Is con- cerned I stand with that party because it advocates our old time principles—initia- tive and referendum, government ownership of public utilities, and those two are the ones and the main planks that will give the people needed relief. The democrats have ignored both of these planks, as well as the Income tax; hence [ can ses no pos- sible hope for the people in elther of these old parties. Again, in the south the pop- ullsts have eminated from the democratic party of corrupticn and unfted with us In the early days In asking und expecting re- lef through o new party.

You may ex- pect to ses more ‘exposures.” 1 know the time set for the fusion managers to meet pretended mid-roaders in Omaha this afternoon for the purpose of getting more slgned statements at so much per sign From the best information 1 can get, the fusion managers are paying $300 per signed statement, and of course this is “hard to resists” when a man has “a family to support.” The question is where does this 3300 come from. Does it come from the subscriptions of popullst farmers in Ne- braska or does it come from the Tammany “regulated” dives of New York city. 1 assure the populists of this state that #0 far as I am concerned and so far as 1 know there has been nothing dishonorable done by the mid-road organization in this state. Respectfully. D. Clem Deaver, South Omaha News. T o o o An immense amount of routine business was transacted by the city council at its meeting last night. Mayor Kelly presided, and all members were present Nine ordl- nances for improvements of various kinds were reported from the judiciary commit- teo and accepted by a second reading. One of the features of the meeting, in fact the only important action, w the turning down of the ordinance introduced a couple months ago providing for the placing underground of all electric wires. Trainor called the ordinance from its r pository in the vest of a member of the Judiclary committee Arg insisted that it be read for the third time. This ordinance provided for the placing underground of all wires, big and little, and the constru tion of comduits, of course under the di rection of the city council. Six months was allowed for removing the poles from Twenty-fourth street and a year from other portions of the city. A proviso was included, however, that upon & proper representation the council would be at liberty to extend the time of the removal of poles. Messrs. Clifton, Johnson and Miller, voted for the ordinance, while Ad- kins, Dworak, Fitle, Trainor and Martin opposed it. Following out the recommendations of the mayor, Councilman Martin offered a resolution directing that an ordinance be drafted organiziag 4 board of health along the ideas suggested by the chief execu- tive. This was passed without a dissent- ing vote and It is expected that the ordi- nance will be rezdy at the next meeting. The funding bond ordinance, which has been talked of for some time was read for the first time and referred to the judiclary committee. As the maturities provided for in this ordinance will soon fall due it was suggested by Martin that the rules be suspended and the ordinance passed in or- der that the credit of the city might be protected. Clifton, opposed this, saying that he necded time to look over the ordi- nance before recommending its passage. He had his way. At the suggestion of Tralner these street lights were ordered moved: from Seven- teenth and Missourl avenue to Eighteenth and Missour! avenue; from Eighteen and M to Nipeteenth and M; from BSizteenth and M to Seventeenth and M. New lights were ordered at Fifteenth and M: Six- teeuth and Missouri avenue and Second and C streets In connection with the lighting question General Manager Kenyon of the Unlon Stock Yards company, sent in & communi- cation regarding the maintenance by the rallroads of a light on the L street vl duct Mr. Kenyon asserted that in his opinion, there was no law compelling rall- roads to maintain lights on viaducts. He added, however, that if there is such a law he Is willing to comply with it, but he must be shown first. City Attorney Lambert flled his bond, which was sent to the judiclary commit- tee. As it was the last sesslon Mr. Mont- gomery will attend he took occasion to say & few words to the council in a sort of farewell address. The bond of J. E. Riley on sewer con- tracts was submitted and was sent to the street and alley committee for investiga- tion. It is expected that this bond will be approved at the next meeting, and then work on the Twenty-third street sewer will commence. Water connections with the Second ward fire hall were ordered made. A halt dozen or more sidewalk erdl- nances were introduced and mumerous street and sidewalk repairs were ordered. Adjourned for one week. Gatning Dailly, One of the prominent lumber dealers of the city gald yesterday that his country trade 18 on the increase, which shows a £00d condition of affairs. Farmers are buy- ing lumber and are erecting additions to their homes and barns. A great deal of this trade, sald the lumberman, comes from Sarpy county, where the democrats are sup- posed to predominate. “A great many of my customers,” said this dealer in beards, lath and shingles, ‘‘were for Bryan four years ago, but now they come in here and buy & load of lumber and pay cash. At the same time they declare themselves fer Mc- Kinley and & coutinuance of the existing prosperous times. Without doubt a great change is being made in the vote in this locality. While some democrats insist that they will stay by Bryan, they are willing to admit that the balance of the ticket will be knifed.

Republican Rally Tonigh Another rally of republicans will be held at Blum's hall tonight. Addresses will be delivered by Hon. James H. Van Dusen and Judge Irving Baxter. Both of these speakers are well known and are pleasing talkers. There is little doubt but that the hall will be crowded, as arrangements are being made for the various ward clubs to attend.

George Murphy, inspector of combustibles for the fire department, said after the fire that the Tarrants had a permit for the storing of one barrel of turpentine, one barrel of berzine and 160 pounds of col- lodion with alcohol.

As soon as it was safe Captain McCluskey put men on guard and they found the vault open and that clerks and tellers im their excitement had not put the funds in the vault. There was money scattered about everywhere. The funds were hastily gath- ered and thrown into the vault, which was then locked securely.
