The nominating committee submitted a report recommending the election of the following executive committee: T. J. Ma- honey, E4 P. Smith, W. 8. Poppleton, W. H. Green, Rev. H. C. Herring, E. E. Bruce, Isaac Carpenter, A. C. Smith, Euclid Mar- tin. The committee also recommended the selection of Dr. A. B. Somers as treasurer and reported that it was unable to name a president and secretary at the present time. Its recommendations were adopted and ad- ditional time granted to report upon the names of the other officers. The membership committee reported that 240 members had been enrolled and was of the opinion that the number could be easily made to reach 1,000, The following by-law was adopted: “Any officer of this league or member of its ex- ecutive committee who accepts a municipal nomination or membership on a campaign committee thereby resigns his particular affice in this league.” The meeting adjourned, subject to the call of the executive committe LOOKS GOOD TO MR. JOHNS Editor of the St. Louis Post-Di Talks of Omaha FPros- perity. atoh George 8. Johns, editor-in-chief of the St. Louls Post-Dispatch, who is a member of the St. Louis party now, domlclled as guests of Colanel J. J. Dickey at his country home near Benson, declares that Omaha is a good town, no matter what the ceneus reports say as to population. Mr. Johos, who 16 a mixture of Missourian and Virginian, had never been to Omaha until he arrived here Sunday morning. While Inspecting The Bee ostablishment yesterday ho said: “Iam delighted with Omaha. It is a great town and The Bee is a great newspaper.

By this latest move on the part of the city's officials it {s hoped that the danger will be checked this year. The mayor is determined that his proclamation shall be recognized and the superintendent of po- lice declares that his department will do all in its power to enforee it. to defy the may- the final warnings the Chicago Record: “These shopkespers morrow morning that we are In carnest For a few days we gave them a chance to act as patriotic citizens In this matter and they have falled miserably—most of them have—to meet us half way.

He sald: “When I issued the prohibitory proclamation I did not do so in Jest. 1 meant what I sald, and the police depart- ment will show the storekeepers that we mean business. If my own boy tries to play with one of these plstols he will get a thorough spanking.” Of so much Importance is the matter considered in the city hall that the health department has issued an appeal in its weekly bulletin. It reads The attempt of the health department to restrict Fourth of July tetanus, or lock- jaw, by securing the confiscation and des- truction of the toy pistol having failed, it remalns for the police to carry out to the letter the order for the arrest of anyone firing the murderous little machine. There were twenty-nine deaths from toy pistol lockjaw last year in Chicago, the first oc- curring on June 20 and the last July 14.

TRANSFER OF PUBLIC MONEY at Federal Duild- Over $1,500,000 has changed hands in a transaction at the federal bullding. Elmer Stephenson, the incoming collector of fu- ternal revenue, recelved $1,650,638.27 in stamps from J. E. Houtz, his predecessor, and gave receipt therefor in the regular form. A huge bundle of stamps rendered vold on July 1 by congressional action s ready to be returned to Washington and the volume of business to be transacted by the office will hercafter be consider- ably less. CRUSHED Two of Ten Boys Overcome by Fumes Near Pittab Are Run oy PITTSBURG, July 3.—The boys were overcome today by foul fumes in & tunnel leading to the old Keeting mine, owned by the Pittsburg Cozl company. A train which came upon them crushed two of them to death. The others were rescued and will recover. The dead are: ANTHONY MILLER, 15 years old. PATRICK GALLAGHER, 14 years old. The boys had been helping the men load a train and all boarded the train to go to the tipple at South Eleventh street. Whila In the tunnel the train stalled. The boys became frightened, jumped to the ground and tried to grope their way to the out- side. The fumes of the tunnel, combined with the smoke from the englue, prostrated all of them, and two of them fell across the tracks. When the train finally started these luds were literally ground to pieces and the others, who had fallen to one side, were taken out later by a rescue party, all in an unconscious state, but revived shortly afterward not the excuse of fgnorance now, for they | chief | | | | transacted.

Scarr was a show in himself, as he wore a pink shirt- walst of the latest pattern and carried a battered parasol in lieu of a baton. Fol- lowlug the parade the band rendered se eral selections at the stand erected at Twenty-fourth and N streets. Visitors to the number of several hun- | dred were on hand to view the sights and | some of the sideshows did a good business. | There was considerable talk about the ;Mun«n unfon boycotting the fair on ac- | count of its employing Bond's band. Pres Ident Cheek stated that a committee from the American Federation of Labor visited | York and inquired into the standing of the | band and gave the assoclation written per- mission to employ Mr. Bond and his mu- siclans. The South Omaha Hospital assoclation | and a number of churches will be repre- | seated in either buildings or booths, where refreshments will be served. Business men were a little slow yesterday in getting out thelr displays, but this was accounted for | by the delay caused by the storm. On account of the activity in butlding and decorating booths there was no speclal attempt made to follow out the program as already outlined for the first day. By this evening it is expected that every- thing will be In first-class shape and that nearly all of the booths will be decorated and contain displays of various sorts An excellent program has been prepared for July 4 by the management and arrange- ments are being made to take care of a large number of visitors. From the looks of the booths there will be no trouble about securing plenty of food and light drinks. Sideshows of varlous kinds are springing up everywhere and the streets are taking on a regular midway air. The best of order prevails. Chief Mitch- ell has plenty of men on regular #nd spe- clal duty and he says that he will not permit disturbances of any kind.

An al- ley twenty feet In ‘width extends from J to K streets, between Twenty-third and Twenty-fourth streets, and the suggestion bhas been made that the city vacate five feet of this alley In order to give the High school grounds that much more space. It is asserted that there can be no objection from property owners to doing this, a fifteen-foot alley will serve the needs of those who reside on tbe property fronting Twenty-fourth street. In speaking of the purchase of the ad- ditional lots yesterday, President Bulla of the Board of Education sald that now the pew High school bullding would have plenty of room and there would be space for lawns, flower beds and walks. The proposed building will front on ‘Twenty-third street, with wings extending west on J and K streets, As contractors have asked for further time bids for the bullding will not be opened until July 15. On account of the recent call for warrants issued by the treasurer of the school district only $9,318 remained to the credit of the school fund at the close of business June 30.

It Is estimated by Architect Davis that the proposed building will cost $100,000. City Clerk's Statement. City Clerk Shrigley has issued the fol- lowing statement, showing the condition of the city's flnances on July 1: Amount of 1600 levy, $110,484; amount drawn to July 1, $104,467; balance on band, $6,017. By funds the balances are: Interest, $1,338; judgment, $1,475; police, $2; fire (overdrawn), $1.80; public light, $283; salary, $201; engineer, $29; gener $1,052; street repair (overdrawn), $ emergency, $25; dog (overdrawn), $2; water, exhausted; total overdrawn, §: Street Car Service, It is understood by managers of the Street Falir that the service on the Omaha line will be first-class during the fair. At the present time twenty regular trains are running, which gives a six-minute serv- ice. As soon as the crowds commence to come to the fair ten extra trains will be placed in service, which will make prac- tically a three-minute service. At night, when the travel will be the heaviest, enough extra trains will be run to make the tralns about two minutes apart, Fitzgerald's Returns, The Board of Review has completed its work and Tax Commissioner Fitzgerald has submitted his final report. The total valu tion, according to the figures given, Is $2 872. When the commissioner com- pleted his work his figures showed a valua- tlon of $2,470,306, While in sesslon the Board of Review made additions and de- ductions.: The net additions on lots and lands amounted to $49,925 and on personal to $32,640, making a total increase over the commissioner's figures of 382, It s possible now that the levy will be only 55 mills.

PYTHIANS EXPECT EXPOSURE Thelr Supreme Lodge is to Hear Re- port on Alleged Sale of Clear- ance Card. £ INDIANAPOLIS, July 3.—At the speclal meeting of the supreme lodge, Knights of Pythias, in Chicago next week, it 18 under- stood a report will be made exposing per- sons alleged to have been implicated in a deal by which a former Illinols insurance commissioner received from a manager of the Knights of Pythias endowment rank $3,500 for a “clearance card” and a letter of recommendation for the rank. Union B. Hunt, secretary of state, who is & su- preme representative in the order, will at- | tend the meeting of the supreme lodge and will favor an investigation and indictment of the offenders, if there is evidence to warrant such action. The story is that the 33,500 bought a report showing that an investigation had been made and that the endowment rank's affairs had been found satisfactory. Later the Ilinols and Connecticut insurance au- thorities began an investigation of the rank. This s not yet finished. ©. F. . Neai of Lebanon, manager of the endow- ment rank, sanctioned the present investi- | it through. The commissioners making it unearthed the $3,500 payment. Mr. Hunt does not know who were im- plicated in the transaction, but says Mr. Neal {8 not mixed up In it in any way except to give It a thorough investigation, The latter is reported to have made affi- | davit in Chicago last Saturday touching the alleged payment and the aMdavit fs satd to be In the hands of the Illinofs insurance commission, gation and has been assisting in carrying | 1s prepared to give a partlal | | for Omaha betore.

By this time the crowd numbered fully 3,000 people and made its way toward the church of Santo Domingo, where the Dominican Fathers offciate. Part of the crowd en'ered during mass when the church was filled with worshipers, mostly women Shouts were ralsed of “Death to the priests!” “Down with the clergy!” and the priests left the altar and sought refuge in tho sacristy with many worshipers. The disturbance went no further. w 0ws Broken, Images Destroyed. Another part of the crowd entered the o'clock mass. Windows were broken and imagos hurled down. The priests were dis- persed and the students made speaches de- nouncing the clergy. There were shouts for Father Icaza, who is accused of many misdeeds. The women present were terrified and the police made several ar- rests, but many of the prisoners were after- ward released. The leaders among the students had counseled moderation and against making a disturbance, but the mob was apparently bent on showing its feeling toward the clergy. In the afternoon people assembled for prayer in the cathedral and other churches and today the Catholic people are offering prayer for the enemies of religion. Precautions have been taken to prevent turther trouble, but it 1s belleved that if several priests who are publicly de- nounced in the press are not punished the young men may make an attempt to Invade the temples. Public opinion 1s divided as regards tho demonstration made by the students, but the liberals and non-Catholics consider that the clergy will now be com- pelled to demand the expulsion of the priests who have been causing public in- dignation to reach fever height.

Home Treatment Quartermaster's Divisfon of Auditing Force Accomplishes a Monstrous Task for the Year. WASHINGTON, July 3.—~The quarter- master's division of the office of the audi- tor for the War department closed its rec- ord of work done during the fiscal year which ended last Saturday with a showing greater in volume by almost 50 per cent than that of any previous year in the his- tory of the treasury. This division exam- Ines, re-computes and tabulates all the a0~ counts and expenditures of all quartermast. ers, commissary and engineer officers of the army. The grand total of expenditures thus aud- Ited {s $120,061,378, or over 231 per cent of the entire cost of the government. It fs divided as follows: Quartermasters’ dis- bursements, $73,000,000; commissaries, §: 000,000; engineers, $18,000,000. The total number of monthly accounts settled was 16,481, lnvolving the examina- tion In detall of 2,343,000 vouchers. These covered transactions in the tael of China, yen of Japan, rupees of India and Ceylon, francs, marks and pounds of Mediterra- nean countries, Mexican dollars of the Phil- ippines and pesos of Cuba, all of which had to be reduced to the domestic standard and s0 stated in respect to each officer's ac- counts that the treasury might know his exact indebtedness at a glance. N. C. Martin, the chief of the division, was a private solder during the civil war and Seward's nurse when he was wounded by an assassin.
