The hearing In the Dennlson mm Is alt
over but the oratory. At t:S0 yesterday
afternoon both aide announced that they
had no further evidence to offer. Mr. Con
nell, for Dennlson, aald he and hla asso
ciates were aomewhat fatigued and would
prefer to defer their arguments until thla
morning. Mr. Brotne had no objection to
putting off the debate, but he expressed a
deelre to hare the court limit the time to be
allowed for it. Mr. Connell said a time
limit waa alwayi embarrassing to counsel
In arguing a case, but he would twuri the
court that not mora than, one day would
be required for the argument, of thla caae.
With the understanding, that all . Of the
talking la to be done today, court adjourned
until 9 o'clock this morning., Mr. Smyth
will open the argument for Dennlson, then
Mr. Brome and Mr. Thomas will speak for
the prosecution, after which Mr. Connell
will close for the relator.:.
"Billy" Donnelly did not appear ae a wit
ness for the prosecution' yesterday, as Tiad
been expected. Lawyers Brome and Thomas
had announced that Donnelly would be
here from Bonestecl, B. D., to testify that
Dennlson went to Davenport, la., with
Billy" Grant early (n November, 1891 for
the purpose of buying a gambling house
there. The hearing of the case, whloh Waa
to have been resumed at I; JO a. m., waa de
layed until nearly 11 o'clock, awaiting the
arrival of the expected witness.' At that
hour Attorney, Thomas . announced to the
court that Donnelly waa unlikely to put in
an appearance. Mr. Brome said the prose
cution would rest Its case.' with the under
standing that 'the evidence of Donnelly la
to be taken if he arrives later.
Several ' witnesses were then oalled for
the relator to rebut the evidence presented
by the prosecution as to the genuineness
of the "Tom Dennlson" signatures on the
Davenport hotel register. All of these wit
nesses expressed the opinion that the sig
natures oft the hotel, register were not
made by Tom Dennlson, and pointed out
as basis for this opinion the differing
characteristics in the writing on the reg
ister and In the admittedly genuine writing
of Dennisotu . ' t -

& K. Bchweitser, secretary and treasurer
of the OriuLha Electrto Light and Power

to . Mr, .Coveira questions be said that ha
had been, ) .hler, as well aa secretary and
treasurer, tor the light company for fifteen
years, and ..acting la that eapaolty had
' a handled a great many cheoks and fs.mll
T larlsed himself with the characteristics of
handwriting. Mr. Brome challenged the
J competence of the witness to give expert
J testimony:, but . the court ruled that his
evidence would be taken tor what It was
T worth. r' " J
Mr. Bchweitser waa shown the "Tom
Dennlson". signatures on the hotel register
and the genuine signatures to the letters
written br Mr. Dennlson, and testified that
he did not believe the same man who signed
the letter signed the hotel book. He
pointed out the break In the last nam as
written on .the, hotel register and the ab
sence of such a break In the genuine
, Dennlson signature. --Mr Bchweitser also
t noted that the writing on the hotel book
was angular and disjointed, while the gen
, ulne signatures were jmoothly written.
All ' Witnesses Agree.
George Sohroeder, manager of h; Great
Western loe cream and Bottling company,
was nsxt called to tha stand. He testified

Mr. Brome also objected to the competence
of this witness, but the court admitted his
testimony. After examining the signatures
on the hotel register and those to the let
ters written by Mr. Dennlson, Mr. Bohroe
dr said!
"X believe the signatures were made by
two different parties." . As a basis for this
belief the witness pointed out the difference
in the formation of the letters on ths hotel
book and those In the genuine signature.
Robert Prttchard, the claim and warrant
broker, was the next witness. He had been
In the claim and warrant business for about
twenty years and previously had been Cash
ier of a bank, Mr. Prttchard said he did
not think the same man. who wrote the lot
' tera which were shown to him had written
the purported Dennlson signatures on the
hotel register. He said the characteristics
of the genuine Dennlson signature did not
show at all In the signatures on the hotel
book.
Wot the tarn tlgnatar.
After the noon recess Epps Cory, paying
teller of the Union Btock Tards National
bank of South Omaha, testified that ths
name '.'Tom Dennlson' as written on the
hotel register was not. In his opinion, the
genuine signature, of Dennlson. Mr. Cory
could not sse any similarity between the
genuine signatures to the letters and the
purported signatures on the register. He
pointed out that the -capital "T" and the
capital "D" on the register were evidently
made by strokes of the pen different from
the strokes mad In writing the genuine
signature. The "e" in the word ' 'Dennl
son" on the register was '. vary .' different
from the corresponding letter In ths genu
ine signatures. -
F. C. Bst, formerly a bookkeeper for
the Union Btock Tarda National bank, fol

Water company, testified that he was fa

Mr. Hunt was axked to bring Into court a

these checks as exhibits and they were
accepted by the court
Mr. Connell called Mr. Dennlson to the

'1 do not think the Board of Water

General Manager Fairfield of the Omaha
Water company. "We are making progress
on the preparations of ths Inventories and
schedules and ths end Is in sight It will
require from six to eight weeks longer,
however, before ws have ths listings for

Ws have been turning over the schedules

made no filings of the Florence plant."
At the city hall there is a dearth of news
concerning the water works appraisal- It
has been Intimated several times in the
legal department that the city will Insist
upon a time for an appraisement before

THE DEMOCRATIC FORUM
Reply to Dr. sillier.
OMAHA, Juns I7.-TO ths Editor of Ths
Bee: In ths Sunday Bee Dr. George L.
Miller makes a chsrarteristlo attack on
ths "rhetorical organiser of democratic de
feat and disaster," and In language neither
"chests nor courteous" proceeds to fill a
column of Ths Bee's spsce with the usual
result "vague and empty phrases." Those
who have carefully read the genial doctor's
articles for ths past quarter of a century
or more will cheerfully agree with ths as
sertion that hs never reaches the home
plate unless he is talking about dogs or
"aunty-monopoly."
With the first two paragraphs many
former Bryan adherents will find no
serious objection. In their opinion
ths Hon. W. J. Is about 300.
000 away from being a "commoner,"
Whatever that blasphemous expression may
be. They will readily agree that his way
of getting wealth Is just as "immoral" as
that of those whom Dr. Miller has de
fended and even praised. Hla latest pa
tron saint of all that Is good in American
democracy was ths late William C. Whit
ney, of whose palatial residence he boasted
without the faintest reference to the "sons
of toll," who suffered by reason of his
questionable transactions. It appears to
be "Immoral" only for ths man who
wrested the stats organisation from the
Boyd-Morton-Miller aggregation of alleged
democrats, who would not be sble to point
out a democratlo principle It they saw one.
Dr. Miller evidently does not agree with
the article recently published by Alfred H.
Lewis, In which he said that the "science
of finance" is not ss intricate ss the
science of soap boiling, for he dubs Mr.
Bryan a rank populist who knows nothing
about "sound finance." If thla waa not the
millionth time the writer has seen this
"vague" disposal of Mr. Bryan and his
followers In print It might pass for what
it is actually worth as a specimen of
cheap cant; but aa neither the doctor nor
his followers hava ever ventured Into the j
mysterious realm of "democratlo princi
ples," according to their lofty concep
tion, we will be at sea until they "cough
up.
In another paragraph Dr. Miller tells us
that Mr. Bryan la at least a good listener.
His ears have been closs to ths ground and
hs has heard ' ths oncoming locomotive,
whose ponderous weight is to brush every
thing aside and restore ths sound demo
cracy of Seymour and Tilden. Treason!
Where does the stuffed prophet of Prince
ton come, InT And Seymour, too, rank
flatlet and candldats on a greenback plat
form. Will Dr. Miller please digest the
democratic platform of 1868? Has hs for
gotten ths democratlo speeches from 1864
to 1878, the first time "sound money" was
an issue In twelve years T
But Dr. Miller Is sore, and takes ad
vantage of his sacred personags to vent
his spleen against ths man who has put
him out of business for all ttms to come.
And If Ths Bes will favor a World-Herald
compositor with the1 publication of this
rambling screed, perhaps hs will make bold
to tackle another man In this community
who imagines he has become Immune to
criticism the redemption of a promise
made to a brilliant former Omahan, now
residing in Chicago. J. H. CORNBTT.

Reoraranisers vs. Dlsorsranlsers.
VERONA, Neb., Juno 2T. To ths Editor
of The Bee: In regard to the lets demo
cratlo state convention you will notice that
the predictions of the reorganlzers are com
ing true. Mr. Bryan Is now fighting Parker,
the strongest mm that can be nominated,
and Is lining up with Hearst ths weakest.
Mr. .Bryan is like the. jaost of uai e dpn't
want another to win where he failed. The
only difference Is that this trait is mors
largely developed In him than in us ordi
nary mortals. No man who wanted the
democrats to win- would have made that
Chicago and New Tork speech on the eve
of a presidential campaign. No man that
wanted the democrats to win In Nebraska
this fall would have divided the Omaha
democrats Into two hostile camps on the
eve of a stats campaign. Winning In Ne
braska, and especially In Omaha, - might
develop another democratlo leader.
Mr. Bryan don't believe In government
by Injunction, yet In a way hs serves an
injunction on every prominent democrat
that he must follow htm or he will question
his motives, call him dishonest and try to
fire him out of the party. He wants a
talker for a presidential candidate, yet he
should know that we never again want a
candidate with 10,000 silver speeches deliv
ered for us to defend that time has proven
wrong. : 1
He is fond of telling that we had better
lose unless our principle is right This Is
the story of all unsuccessful parties. The
prohibition party has been talking principle
for these many years. The Lord still lets
them retain their principles, but he gives
the other fellows ths votes and offices.
Bryan's abuse of eastern democrats hurled
through the columns of the dally s press
tends to drive the young voters away from
the democratlo party. Why follow a man
that turned two presidential campaigns on
an Issue that time has proven wrong and
would again turn dictator and bring us a
third Urns to defsat
Mr. Bryan's committee will not select a
temporary chairman of a stats convention
unless hs will agree to sound the prabes
of Bryan. And In addition to ths tem
porary chairman at nearly every stats con
vention we find a man imported to sound
pralsea for Bryan and abuse eastern demo
crats. JOHN MURTRT.
The John Alexander Dowle of Polities.
OMAHA, Juns 18. To ths Editor of The
Bee: "The devil seems to pay and no
pitch hot" with our rattled friend, Mr.
Bryan, in Chicago. Mr. Vincent H. Per
kins of the democratlo Tusoarora club, on
the north aide, openly denounces him for
"using ths democratlo party for his own
selfish purposes," and Mr. Charles Steven
son, president of ths Tuscarora club, agrses
with Mr. Perkins and declares that the
raving plutocrat of Lincoln "should be
driven ' out of the St Louis convention."
Both of these democratlo Indians havs
been "the closeet friends" Mr. Bryan
"ever had In Chiosgo." Mr. Perkins
charges that hs Is trying to defeat the
party and caps ths climax by oalllng -him
ths John Alexander Dowle of politics.
He says that Mr. Bryan holds ths same
relation to the democratlo party that
Elijah No. i holds to religion. This is
rather rough on the rodentla and Dowle.
but It is unspeakably cruel to the un
speakable Bryan. I respectfully appeal to
my charming friend, Constantino J. Smyth,
and other apostles of ths csnlns creed of
which they arc ths expounders, to come
to ths Immediate relief and resoue of the
only man who can savs the nation from
Immediate destruction. Ths Tuscarora
trlbs of Indiana never belonged to the true
Iroquois except by baptism, but even my
friend Constantino, who has been so long
prostrated, may be able to sit up long
enough to sound ths hswgag and scsre
those Chicago red devils back Into ths
swamps of ths stinking Calumet It Is
proper that I should warn ths elect that
grave trouble Is brewing In the old tents
of ths righteous, and that something should
bs dons to savs our great and glorious
friend of "the common people" from fur
ther Insult and "humiliation." In no event
must this elocutionary mad bull of Baahan
bs humiliated or bucked off the bridge
by Chicago Tuscaroras or any other tribe
sf democratic Indians. Never mind about
ths iwtooo a year tnoom from hs Con-
sooner and what the late J. Sterling Mor
ton called "blab." Never mind about that
140,000 house and the regal state, with
glided carriages and crowded retinue, from
whoss dasillng environ menu Mr. Brysn
grunts and groans hla harrowing sym
pathy with ths sons of labor and the poor
and downtrodden. Never mind about the
liberality of the great man who hires cheap
girls, thirty or forty in number, to do
the work which belongs to msster printers
In ths city of Lincoln In producing ths
cheap Commoner at the price of starvation
wages to ths tender young children of ths
dependent poor. Glvs no heed to ths fact
that with Mr. Bryan's political Invest
ments In all kinds of politics, he has sud
denly been enriched beyond the wildest
dreams of men. Using the democratic
party for his own selfish purposes, did you
say, Mr. Tuscarora Perkins T Sines when
did this born leader of men and roaring
patriot break over ths heavenly breast
works In this wayT ' "
It is feared, my dear Perkins, that you
have been reading the will of the lata Mr.
Bennett which Mr. Bryan wrote himself,
with that tell-tale Interlineation which, In
case of accident, so fixed things that ths
150,000 that was bequeathed by Mr. Bennett
to Mr. Bryan should gi to "his heirs." But,
listen a moment my dear Mr. Indian, did
not Mr. Bryan give up 175,000 of Widow
Bennett's money which he had been carry
ing around loose In his spacious pockets for
so long, when ths court ordered him to do
It, and not before, like a gentleman? All
this, however, has nothing Whatever to do
with ths main question, which Is precisely
thla, towlt: Is William Jennings Brysn,
orstor, statesman, plutocrat populist snd
blackguard, who publicly called O rover
Cleveland "a bunco steerer" and Judgs
Alton B. Parker a "fraud," a political Hot
tentot or la he simply an ordinary shyster
who, under ths stolen name of democrat
"wears the livery of heaven to servs the
devil Inr .
And, by ths way, I notice the proclama
tion of Mr. William H. DeFrance, a dele
gate to the St. Louis convention, who was
chosen at the late Douglas county demo
cratic primaries to go to the national con
vention and "die," if necessary, for the
Kansas City platform. But Mr. Do Francs
says he has no notion of dying on that
sacred issue. He says that Mr. Bryan and
all the tumble bugs of politics, which
Mr. Bryan so. strongly resembles jn rolling
over himself, "do not Insist upon the re
iteration of ths bimetallic plank.". I am
using his own words In his yesterday's In
terview in The Bee which was slways ths
essence, backbone and real marrow, of ths
Kansas City nonsense. Mr. Ds Franoe,
then, waa chosen a delegate to St. Louis
from this big aistrlct on ' false pretenses,
or he Is guilty of fiat repudiation of the
resolutions of ths state convention which
elected him as a delegate to St. Louis. On
whioh long horn of this dilemma does this
fins specimen of Bryaniam choose to hang
himself f ,
Mr. Ds France says that all ha wants st
Bt Louis is a "definite declaration that will
show our position sgalnst corporate greed
and special privileges .to. the. trusts."
"Angels and ministers of grace defend us!"
And has it corns to this small -denouement
after all this raving and roaring mad
ness of eight long years of democratlo de
moralisation and disaster? There is not a
school boy 14 years old, outside of a south
em plantation, In all thla broad land, who
does not know, and even Mr. De France
himself must -know, that there Is not a
democrat now living in the United States
who ever would, or ever could offer a
shadow of objection to sush a declaration,
as he how says, in a cowardly backdown,
win satisfy ths Bryan contingent to the
national convention from1 this disgusted

Which Shows Healthy State of.
Affairs for Vales,
Tuesday morning's session of ths Interna

shoers' convention was devoted to the' ad
dress of the president and first vice presi
dent The report of the" president gave
a comprehensive outline of the work of
the association since Its ' last meeting at
Louisville two years ago.
"These two years have been momentous
ones in union labor circles and. the close
relation that ' the journeymen horseshoers
held to (the various organisations, both In
a fraternal and ordinary business way, has
caused the association to be more or less
Interested In nearly all of the labor con
troversies. The association has, however,
prospered In the main, and Is In the best
condition of Its history Just at this time,
and the outlook for the future la encourag
ing." ... -
8uch Is contained In the report, which
goes on advocating, that ths association
proceed on a conservative basis and thereby
continue to merit publlo esteem.
' The' report of the vice president was
slong similar lines and both reports were
greeted with ths deepest, Interest' sAid atten

Tuesday afternoon the biennial reports of
the secretary and. treasurer were sub

occupied in their reading.
This morning's session will bs de

MONEY FOR THE ELEVATOR
Twenty Thousand DoUars Mow la
Hand for Terminal Itruotare
by the Farmers.
About 120,000 has been subscribed toward
ths building of a farmers' terminal elevator
111 this city. C Vincent who Is pushing ths
project is absent In the stats looking after
mors subscriptions, and a number have
come In sines hs left It is believed that
enough money has been raised to assure ths
early building of ths elevator here and ths
only detail which remains to bs adjusted la
the ohoics of a location.
Sines It has been found so easy to get ths
farmers' organlxs-Uons of ths stats Inter
ested in the plan it has been decided to
build another terminal elevator at Kansas
City to handle the grain bought by the
farmers' elevator companies tributary to
that city. Ths building to be put up In
Omaha, It Is given out, will bs modern In
every respect It will be furnished with
the tubular system whloh Is In use in the
larger markets where large quantities of
grain are handled. Ths Omaha building
will be put up before work Is begun; upon
ths Kansas City structure.
Mr.. Vincent probably will return to
Omaha about the first of next week and it
is thought probable he will then give out
the date on which work on the flew build
ing will be begun. It is not thought local
grain men will look upon ths project with
much favor for ths reason that It threatens
to cut Into ths business of ths other ele
vators located here.
