Hawltoyo senator unnnlmously , but Inquiry
Mulcklv established the fnUliy of the report.
The Iowa delegation held qulto n long
meeting ns lo the advisability of opening the
gnto nnd ushering Allison into the political
paddocK of darn horses. It wus fully dis
cussed , but It wns derided that the llmo wus
not opportune for tlio lown man. The dole-

Ooininlttrn Not to Tluilr I.ll < lng.
MlN.viiAl'oua , M in. , Juno S , The Blalnc
people mot with n mirpriso this afternoon In
the committee on credentials. They found n
counter plan at work to defeat their purpose
to approve the proceedings of the national
committee in the matter of the coutosls , and
when n vote wnt taken on the dologatcs-at-
largo they found thomsclvos In the minority ,
after having conlldontly looUod to victory In
all the contests , a previous tosl vote having
shown that they were In n majority nnd con
trolled the committed by n majority of 0
votes.
It wns only ono vote by which they lost
and subsequently they pulled themselves
tope t her nnd carried a motion to adjourn ,
with another motion to roconsldor pending.
Blaine men la the delegation said it was a
sol-hack , but predicted lhat tbincs would
come out nil right in tbo end. Before the
report wus prepared for submission to the
convontlon it would bo found that they were
again in the majotity. They say tonight the
light will bo renewed and that
they will carry thulr point and
scat tbo antl-Mosaly faction In Alabama ,
who have boon given seals by
tbo national committee. Tbo now * , however ,
gave a great deal of satisfaction and en
couragement tn the Harrison mon , who up to
this time have boon bitterly complaining of
the way they were being iroalod by the com
mittee on credentials. Some of their lenders
expressed a fear that the committee did not
propose to report at all , nnd wore In favor of
lighting the uommitlloo on the iloor of the
convention. From this Ihoy were restrained
by the fact lhat their dofoal meant n loss of
prcttlgo and they realized tbnt the proposi
tion that the delegates were bound by In
structions was weaker than the ono In band.
A rrulimlimry SklmiUli.
The llrst movement on the part of Iho Harrison
risen men looking to moro speedy work on
iho part of the credentials committee was
mndo In the convention when Cogswell of
Massachusetts , as chairman of the committee ,
asked for moro time. The move wus cautious
and Involved no light. It was simply a pre
liminary skirmish for an advantageous posi
tion.
Spooner of Wisconsin wns out forward by
the administration men and to questions ho
was given the Information that with good
luck n report ought lo bo raada tomorrow ,
and Ibat the permanent roll might oo inndo
up at any time so far as uncontcstcd cases
were concerned.
An effort made in committee previously to
have thcso cases reported in advance of Ibo
report on Iho-conioulod cases bnd failed by a
vote of 22 to - ' ( ! , and u was.for the purpose of
eliciting the fact that Air. bpooncr had made
bis inquiries. In speaking of the report
Chairman Cogswell acknowledged to a rn-
porter thai Iho nnll-adminlslrnlion men were
in majority nud controlled affairs.
Ill the Al biinu : Coutost.
When the committee reassembled It pro
ceeded with a llttlo moro expedition , and by
the time for adjournment for supper bad
almost completed consideration of iho Ala-
Uam'i contents , which were the worst taken
up. The llrst cnno called was from tbo Eighth
district , nnd huroj the report of the subcom
mittee wns approved with substantial
unanimity.
The antl-Moseloy dolegnlos were permn-
ncnlly enrolled. A light was made on
Hcndricks and Fitzpatriclr , tbo representa
tives of the faction headed by Slovens und
Gco of Now Idea , known as the antt-Moso-
leys In the Third Alabama district , but n poll
showed 27 Blaine to 23 Harrison votes and
they wcro also enrolled. In the Fourth dis
trict It was nlso demonstrated that there was
a good working majority and the anti-Moso-
toyltos wore sustained In their rights to
seats.
The Fifth district was also carried , but
when It came to tbo ilRlogatos-at-large and
the contest uver the Ninth district , the ad
ministration forces mustered strong and exe
cuted n skillful coup d'otnt. ' They carried
thi day temporarily for thoMosoloy , or oQlco-
liolders , faction by a vote of 2 > lo & ) .
Trylujf to Account for It.
In describing how It was done ono of the
members of tlio committee said that n couple
of follows suddenly jumped over to the other
hide , ono sneakin and another wus absent
A motion was made to reconsider and an ad
journment was carried until 8 : 0 , when the
motion to reconsider will como up und the
light uo renewed.
The Alabama contest was again tnkon up
on reassembling but loft for tbo time in the
shape they drew it.
The Fifth Kentucky contest wns tnkon up
nnd Mallhiiwn and Winilol sealed. This

atatu convontlon met In this cily today. Not
withstanding that the delegates selected to
the Chicago convontlon go unlnstructod , iho
convention was clearly a Cleveland body ,
the mention of the ox-prosldont's name at
various times eliciting tremendous applausu.
Tbo platform adopted calls for a general
reform of the tariff laws of the country , con
sisting mainly In a reduction of aulles lo tbo
lowest rale conslslonl with the needs of on
economical administration of the govern-
inont ; denounces iho McKlntoy bill , which
'
the platform says is an abuse of'tbo taxing
powers , formlnc corporations and trusts and
discriminating against the farming and
other industrial classes , compelllntr them lo
buy In a protected market and sell in ono open
to the competition of the world. Reciprocity
is arraigned us a fraud , invented for tbo ben
efit of politicians in the interest of the re
publican party. Tbo administration of
G rover Cleveland is endorsed by tbo highest
pralso , and liberal appropriations for the Im
provement of the rivers nro de
manded. The platform concludes us
follows : "Tho delegates selected by
this convention to the national

duty of making tbo best selections possible
for president and vice president , looking to

ALL WERE WILLING TO FIGHT
jdcotio Doctors Anxious to Settle tlio
Ootnor Trouble in tlie Ring ,
VERY LIVELY DEBATE OVER A REPORT
Scvernl ( Iciitlcmrn Hnnirlcntly Kxrlinl to
Indulge In Torrlil LniignnRo The
1'acully 1'limlly Sat Upon with
I'lrmiicss nnil Vigor.
Tbo evening session of the doctors was
full ot ginger ana Suitlvaiiosquo posos.
Everybody foil ugly , and there wasn't it corn
In the house lhat didn't go around Imploring
some rocKlcss wight to walk on It. Cautious
pcoplo had hard work lo sloor clear of the
obtrusive protuberances.
Dr. Conway was there with his flaming
curtains nnd ho took particular pains to ro-
poalodly Impress upon iho crowd that ho was
with diflloulty restraining tns warlike
whiskers. Ho wanted blood or a black eye ,
and when ho wont up against Dr. Howara
the chances were thnt ho would got both ,
but "tho simoon blow ever leaving no dead
mon strewed proihlsobously around.
It all came about ever the discussion of the
report of the Investigating committee , which
was dead against the Cotnor modtcal faculty ,
For four long hours did the dlicusslon last ,
and only when the clock struck
midnight was a voio finally reached ,
deciding thnt the faculty must -go.
There were criminations and recriminations ,
wild disputing ana open abuse , In fact
everything but good order ana parliamentary
observances. At times the mooting resem
bled a ward primary moro than the
calm deliberations of a supposedly dignified
body ot professional gentlemen , and It was
no wonder thnt the four ladles present drew
closer Into tholr corner nt times , ana on ono
occasion raised tholr voices In frightened
protest against iho demonstrations of physi
cal violence that momentarily promised n
most sensational denouement.
They I'msoU the lle.
The Cotnor faculty wns bitterly arraigned
by ouo side and as energetically defended by
Iho othor. Methods of teaching and state
ments inadvertently made by members of the
faculty were remorselessly "trotted out , nnd
it then took but a lltilo whllo to
roach the low level of personal abuse.
Thollo was passed several times under tho'
slightly moderated form of "thnt Is a false
hood , " ana tightly clenched lists were ex
citedly shaken under offending noses.
Dr. Carrikor and Dr , Latin led the faculty
forces and Dr. Madding aud Dr , Keys en
gineered the opposition.
Dr. Keys domaudod to know why ho and
Dr. Mclntyro were lot out of the faculty , and
was Informed bv Dr. Latta that it was bo-
cause Dr. Mclntyro was Incompetent and be
cause Keys was constantly conniving at the
downfall of the institution" Ho further inti
mated Ibat Keys was disgruntled at not
being made dean of the Institution.
Dr. Keys entered a general denial nnd de
manded a retraction and Dr. Latin look It
back. K
Dr. Mclntyro also had a short but enter-
lalnlng seance with Dr. Latta , who
assorted that Mclntyro sent a prlvnto
syphilitic patient to the institution.
Dr. Mclntyro excitedly jumped from his
chair , declaring the statement false , and
made his way toward Dr. Latta , until the
president and ono or two others caught him
bv the arm and held him firmly. Ho assorted
that no xvas "not going to hit the old man , "
and the "old man" shook his white crest de
fiantly nnd vociferated lhat ho wasn't afraid
of'Mclutyro or any ether man on oartb.
A 111 Chawloy Mitchell.
Dr. Conway Jumped In and nattod Latla
on iho shoulder and told him to "call Mc
lntyro a liar If ho wanted to and ho would
BOO him tbrougb with It , " and his noisy
arpocclos vibrated wildly in the surrounding
excitement , which was gelling thick onougu
to oat with a fork.
It was really qulto Interesting , but nobody
died tboro either , and the spectators disap
pointedly drew n long breath once moro.
The faculty was represented In person ,
having come in on an evening train , and ono
member was evidently prepared for the
fruy , for ho flashed a copy of ono of Dr. Mad-
ding's proscriptions and proceeded to demon
strate Ibat the doctor aforesaid was about as
consistent as fresh eggs in July.
Another member bopped onto the dnzod
Mr. Madding and said ho couldn't practlco
in this stale until ho attended a course of
lectures somewhere. Mr. Madding dramati
cally Informed him that ho was a gilt edged
and thoroughbred nrestidcgltatour with
actual facls , and Iho Llncolnlle nto his own
words ia a half hearted sort of way that
indicalod thai ho didn't relish 'om , and
another tragedy was averted and another
sinful soul given time to repent.
Doth Dciut Willing.
Dr. Howard tried to talk but was fre
quently interrupted by members who raised
noints of ordor. "Seo here , Mr. President , "
finally remarked the doctor , with his whlto
hairs blushing so as to keep tbo uubloaohod
from feeling lonesome "I'm
ones , going to
have this iloor , or I'm going to lick some
body. "
Dr. Conway , who had boon sat upon whllo
attempting to explain how ho was still a
member of the association and unless iho
association so published it in thn morning
papers bo would sue tbo whole concern tor a
fortune or two , ho thought ho saw another
chance to got oven with the world , and rollIng -
Ing up Ins sleeves and kicking n chair out of
the way , fiercely declared , "If you will clear
a ring there , Dr. Howard cun lick mo right
now. "
That was all It amounted to , as Dr. How
ard at once began to toll how ashamed bo
felt because ho belonged to such an organiza
tion , and vowed bo would never darken its
doors aaln until ho saw evidences of a rad
ical change. It had cost him S-IO to como
horo.und learn something , and the members
simply wanted to show him how tn light.
That wasn't what ho was there for , as ho
could get all that at homo for nothing. Ho
didn't tight Indoors anyway , but out in tbo
street ho could whip uny man on earth , oven
If bo was UO years old himsolf.
It might have been going yet and there Is
no telling where it would have ended had
not tbo entls forced Iho question to n vote
and then tboy had 'em.
It didn't all como in a mluulo , though , as
everything was debatable in that house
motions to adjourn , to lay on Iho table , or the
previous question , U was all tno snino thing.
If they couldn't speak to the question they
could utleast froa their minds , and If you
think they didnit ao It It Is nocnuso you
wasn't within a mile of tlio Paxton last
'night. '
SOUTH SlIMi CITJ/.KNS ,

the Hiillroatl Ilo'iuM ( jiiuxtlon.
Tbo citizens meeting , at a hall near the
corner of Sixth and Pierce streets Ia4t night ,
resulted in a flow of oratory of unusual
volume and variety ,
Owing to Iho lateness of the hour at whlcb
the moating began business only three sub
jects ' .ho south sldo park , the sewer ques
tion und the Nebraska Central bond problem
were discussed ; but U tbo mooting bad begun -
gun oarlor ) the rroo silver question-the Bor
ing sea dlttlculty and tbo Minneapolis con
vention might bavo boon disposed of just as
well as not , for the orators appeared to bo
equal to almost any emergency or demand.
Stiitoil thu Olijoct oftho Mooting.
John Butter was elected chairman of tbo
meeting and Mr. E. J. Cornish stated the ob
ject for which the meeting was called as ho
understood it. Ho said It was for tbo pur
pose of discussing tbo south sldo park ques
tion. Mr. Cornish thought that the citizens
of the south side should not bo In too much
of a hurry about getting a park , now
thai they had Iho pledge of the city
council that the funds sot usldufor a south
eldo park would not ba diverted to nnv ether
purposo. They wanted a park , but tboy
should oppose tbo purchase ol a small tract.
Ho thought that U would bo much bolter lo
w alt six uioalhs till tbo city had acquired
power to condemn" , und then If suitable
lBiid for a park could not be purchased
they could bo condemned. Ho bollovodlu ,
having a good , large park and In bavin ? It
purchased all at once , not In lootlons. There
wai danger , ho thoughl , of having the money
squandered for ether purpose * If n part of it
should bo Invested for n small plcco ot land
with the ln"ntlon of buying more later.
Mr. Char.os Klcuttor wni of the samoopin
ion. Ho wanted to see the south sldo pro
vided with a good , largo park , nuthe thought
It would bo poor policy to encourage the park
commissioners to purchase a part of the
cround , hopinc lo buy the rest lator. Mr.
Klcuttor called attention to the fact tbnt the
north side had several parks , whllo ' .ho south
sldo had nono. Ho hold thnt Iho south sldo
tiad been sllchtod und the only way for thnt
part ot the city to got even wai to demand
| ust troatmnnt.
Mr. Charles Conoyor expressed himself ns
favoring the Idea of walling until the com
missioners could purchase n largo uark In a
suitable location instead of urclng them on
to purchase Innccossablo and insuniciout
irncls.
Waiting Tor Thnin to Mnho tip Their MlmtK ,
Councilman Munro wns present ami wni
asked to address iho mooting. Ho said
there wns no Inclination on the parl of the
city council or the park commissioners to
deal unjuitlv with iho people of the south
sldo. The council and Iho commissioners
were simply waiting for the people of the
south side to make up their minds as to
where tliov wanted tha park ,
Then Mr. Van Duyno sprung the sewer
question and charged that Iho city council
hnd not. done the fair thing by the south
aide. Ho declared lhat whllo the north aldo
would rccotvo the bonotlti of an expenditure
of over $10,000 for sewers thU year iho south
sldo would have but 3,000. Tbls tnnttor was
llioroughly explained by Mr. Munro
and the mooting then passed a
series of resolutions declaring that
it was the wishes ot the pcoplo of the south
sldo that the city council should hold the
{ 09,000 sot asldo for n south sldo Dark until
suoh llmo us n suitable and suftlclont Iraot of
R round could bo purchased and t'int tiouo of
the funds should bo expended for nny other
purposo.
And then the Nebraska Central bond ques
tion came uu. Ernest Stubt wns opposed to
the bondi and made a vehement speech
against the proposition. Councilman ryfunro ,
Charles Elauttor , Mr. Gedultlg and others
spoke earnestly In favor of the bond proposi
tion. John Butler spoke- earnestly against
Iho bonds , holding that the voting of bonds
woula bo of no material bonoflt to the city.
Mr. Munro mndo a number of excellent
points , turning iho areumonia advanced by
Mr. Stnht and Mr. Butlor.
Mr. Stuht. claimed thnt thn bringing In of
moro railroads would not bolp the city any.
Unllronds , bo claimed , hnd cut but n very
slight liguro in the growth of Omaha. Mr.
Godultlg rather took Mr. Stuht oft his foot
hy asking him how much his land would
have boon worth If the Union Pnolllo nnd B.
& M. had not built their tracks cloio to It.
Mr. Stuht wns obliged to acknowledge that
ho had made uionoy by accident.
Why Some 1'ooplo Opposed the llomts ,
"You nnd some moro of thcso people who
are opposing tha bonds , " said Mr. Gedultlg ,
"bavo got rich by accident , by the railroads
building along , past or through vour land ,
and now you nro not willing to bolp the city
that has boon Iho means of making you
rich. "
Mr. Butler hold that the voting of the Ne
braska Conlral bonds would Impose- lax of
just $37 upon every taxpayer In Omaha. This
statement was vigorously comuatlcd by Mr.
Elguttor nud olhors.
A mojorliy of those present were In favor
of the bonds , aud ns tbo discussion pro
ceeded the sentiment in favor of the bonds
seemed to grow. Every argument in oppo
sition to the bonds was mot fairly and suc-
cossfullv by thoio who fnvor the proposition.
Mr. Elgutlor showed that Iho city would
rocolvo from the Nebraska Central company ,
during the next thirty years , moro money in
taxes than the amount of the bonds.
This celled for a long huranguo from Mr.
Buller upon Iho lax shirking procllvlilcs of
the Union Pacific and ether railroads. As o
whole the meeting proved lo bo very favorable -
blo lo Iho bond proposition.
There were a number of laboring mon present -
sent who wont to the mooting opposed to the
bonds , but they wont homo in a brown study
almost convinced that they should vote for
the bonds , whllo others were completely con
vinced tbnl the opposition to the bonds was
really a blow at the prosperity aud wolfnro
of the oily and Ihoy will work and vote for
the bonds.

the eastern cities nro arriving In town.
They como tonttond a conference which Is to
bo beta here tomorrow. The objoot ot the
conference Is to secure from the Sugar trust
the adoption of n uniform basts upon which
BURar shall bo sold. The Idea U to request
the Sugar trust to establish "limited price"
nt which a rob-Ue of ono-quartor of n cent n
pound U to bo paid. It Is ox pooled thnt the
conference will bo roorosontntlvo of the job
bers ot the cistern cities , ni the matter to ba
considered In ono of grbat Importance- tbo
trade.
A proposition hni already boon submitted
to the various grocers' associations. II was
submitted by E. W. Imbusch , who was the
prime mover in tno movement to establish
the Wholesale Grocers association. His
proposition culls for the Uniform price for
each ilny by all the ro liners of the trust , tel
egraphic advlco of dally market to each lob
bing center , equalization of prltoi ; for coui-
pollllvo points throunli the system of sched
uling or freight allowance to the retailers ,
nnd a rebate on monthly purchases con
tingent upon n mnlntonnnroof thoiirico of
Migar * ni llxod by the schedule.
It Is hoped that the trust will bo rondv to
moot the decision ol Iho conference. 'Thu
hope Is warrnnlod by a lotler written to Iho
Southern Wholesalers association bv Prosl-
dent Huvomoyor of the trust , in. which ho
said : "Whllo wo foci disposed to co-opcrutu
with the wholesale trnao in iho dlrecllou of
scouring for them a fair remuneration for
their services In distributing cur product ,
nny plan looking to tbls end must orlglnala
wilti thorn and bo the result ot their mutual
agreement ns to what is best for their inter
est. "
It h regarded us n promise that If the
coming conference of wholesalers will agrc
upon a basis for distribution , the Sugar
trust will adopt that basis. Mttoh difference
in to bo looked for , however. In arranging
details. Many members of the Now York
Who'osnlors iissoclation are openly opposed
to Increasing the rebate from ono-oight ot A
