He retired to tha Accompaniment of a mfghty shout' which signified that King Ak-Sar-Den XVI haa been the mightiest and mer riest monarch of them all. "Oreat la Ak-Sar-Ben" roared the crowds and the hill Rides and valleys and bt-oad prairies of the land of (Jutvera gave back the echo. ' Oreat is A-kSar-Ben." When the last barker had barked last night, when tha last handful of confetti had reached Ita mark, when the tired, but overjoyed crowds had started home and the Arabs of the Highway shows were fold ing their tents ready to steal away, silently or otherwise, one and all had the same opinion: The Ak-Sar-Ben festivities of 1910 have reached the highest mark as yet. The fall festival has been the most complete ana successful since the Knights of Ak-Sar-Bon first crowned a monarch. The electrical parade was easily the best and was wit nessed by more people; the army maneu vers have been a gigantic success, the highway haa been gayer. Attendance at the Highway may have fallen a few hundred short qX the mark of two years ago, but this was due to the absence of railroad rates and the 1909 fig ure Is far surpassed. A great day at Fort Omaha, where another amazing crowd was present and a farewell hurrah and kickup 1 on the Highway closed the festival yes terday. The day was not quite so note worthy as Wednesday, with the electrical p-irade, Thursday with the military parade and Friday with the coronation, but It was a hit day, nevertheless, and a fitting concluding fourth act to the climaxes of the three dkys just before. ' , , Mure Money 8 peat. Ak-Sar-Ucn visitors have left thousands Of dollars in Omaha, probably more than ever before, and. this in spite of the fact that no special rates were granted or spe cial trains war eruu this year by the rail roads. Beside cash sales made by mer chants and money taken In by hotels, res taurants and other business Institutions, the Ak-Har-Ben festivities have been of Im mense benefit to Omaha In a mercantile way. This la obviously true with respect to advertising the city. In an Indirect way the benefit, are equaUy great As Joseph Hay den., of Hayden Bros company sug gests, thousands of people have become acquainted with the city. It is no longer a strange place for .them and they will, therefore, come all the more willingly at other times, because they feel that they know their way about. Many business cross currents result from a proposition so big as Ak-Bar-Ben. Many Gruahans refrain from shopping during this period and their trade Is lost during the ten days, but only during this time. Oui-of-town shoppers replace them. The same situation Is true with respect to the theaters, some of which do not in a bust ness way care for Ak-ttar-Brn either post titely or negatively. Others have a prac ucauy capacity Business ail tn season, anyhow. Most of the big stores and shops declare that sales this year have broken all records. "Ours were the very biggest we have ever had in Ak-Sar-Ben times," asserted Henry A. Thompson of Thompson A Belden. Hugo H. Brandela contented himself with saying that the visitors this year were a mora prosperous appearing and better dressed lot of men and women than heretofore, and W. F. fiaxter of the Kil patrlck company declared his Institution bad done a record Ak-8ar-Ben business. "Country trade is becoming more and more distributed through the whole year," aid Mr. Baxter, "and although we broke Air record, the number of out-of-town visitors did nut a am quite ao great as In yeara past, at least, on the big daya when all the storea of tha city ued to be stand log on their beads. The 1-cent tare law Is responsible for this distribution and it la, of courts, a good thing." F. W. Bacon of the Lennett company stated that "tills company exceeded by several thousands its sales of una, and went anead of IX by a leather majority."

Tne gray haired veteran was introduced to the "peerless leader" and warmly congratu lated him on his success In bringing his great team back to the front. "You can be elected governor of Cali fornia when you go back, was the way the senatorial aspirant greeted Chance. "You are a native son and 1 am only an adopted one. Everywhere I have been I f"und tsat state proud of your success. It Is a great honor to win four National league te.. mints, and you surely are to be congratulated. "They are trying to make a politician out of me out there. They expect me to run for the eanatorship and I declined. The declination was not accepted and finally I was drafted into the game. Once in it. I am, of course, as anx.ous to win as I ever was to win a ball game. The spirit is the same. I won my first game in the primaries, seventy-six to sixty, which sounds like an old-time base ball score. doesn t u ' Mr. Spalding was greatly surprised and deilghted by a gift from President Murphy. It was a base ball which Mr. Spalding himself had pitched in a game forty years ago. Shurtlett Denies Every Charge Speaker Says He Had No Part in Any Act of Bribery in Connection with Lorimer Case.

REGARDED AS NOTE OF WARNING Count Upon Aid of Crown Against Arrogance of Peers. CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE LORDS Talk that the Crown May Follow the Coronet to the Melting; Pot and Itepabllcans Come in to Complete Control. LONDON, Oct. . (Special Cablegram.) For British statesmanship the march of j republicanism In the Iberian peninsula has more man me importance oi a aeucate Issue of foreign relations to be handled by Sir Edward Grey. It has direct bearings upon the International political situation. Thfs Is because of the xtraordlnary efforts of Mr. Asqulth and his lieutenants In the radical coalition to secure for the democ racy Its proper share In government by curbing the house of Lords, cannot be di vorced absolutely from the status of the monarchy Itself. Edward VII clearly recognised the con nection and did not try to conceal bis anxiety from his entourage. One of the most menacing cries raised agalnsta the Lords was the cry of James Kelr Hardie last winter: "We count upon the aid of the crown against the arrogance of the peer; and, If we are disappointed, It may be that the crown will follow the cornet to the melt ing pot." Tories delight to call him "Queer" Hardie; and even the liberals suspect him of ever estimating his value to the re mainder of mankind; but Hardie does rep resent in his noisy fashion a party cer tainly not diminishing, and his flnlg at "tyrants of all ranks," Is recalled today. I.lttle Shaky In England. After discussing the chances for and against a serious republican movement In the near future among any of the popula tion of the monarchlal powers, an able thinker, seeking a point of contact between Portuguest republicans and the democracy of the United Kingdom, says it is incon ceivable that tho leaders of political thought in England, when taking a broad view of events in Usbon, should not see the light these cast upon the forthcoming coronation of George V, "a ceremony bound to do one of two things either Increase or decrease the sources of democracy in the greatest state of tiie modern world." Whether republican success in Portugal will greatly stimulate republican feeling thl nountrv la rtonhtfnl til Mnhii.n movement here has not amounted to much since the diamond .Jubilee of Victoria, though prior to that celebration it deserved some attention. A widespread outburst of loyalty to the reigning family followed the death of "The best fellow who ever had the misfortune to swing a scepter," as Tim Healy de scribed him. Quite likely the pageantry and fetes of the coronation next year will work In the same direction throughout feudal Eng lans. lli.vever. It may be In Scotland, Wales u. j Ireland. oiurthlha; May Happen. But, altogether apart from the future of royalty, there Is to be reck3ned with the lnfllence, coronation enthusiasm may exert upon the campaign the radicals are conduitlng against the lords. A prominent tory organ accuses them of "warming at their campflres the whole brood of revolutionary vipers," and ap parently this charge Is a cue cleverly chosen and given to the high party by the adroit Balfour. Unionists profess to believe that the rising tide of national enthusiasm for crown and en.plre will swamp the rad icals at the next general election, whether it occurs in January or later In 1911. To this the radicals reply -that the spec tacle of the democracy of Portugal boldly changing intolerable conditions by the only stirs the souls of true method availabli democrats in all lands and must encour age the British and Irish democrats to strike down their aristocratic oppressors at Westminster. It is significant nevertheless that the practical men in liberal councils are urg'ny that the appeal to the country on the constitutional issue be made before theKlve Nebraska for giving a public of coronation excitement sets in.

Judge Howard's appeal s directed to Mr. Hitchcock personally under the caption, He is Dead Now," and reads as follows: "Four or five years axo there was a prominent man In Nebraska. He Was active in the republican politics of the slate, and the republicans notn.nated him for a state office. "A few days after the nomlnr-tion had been made the Omaha World-Herald, owned by G. M. Hitchcock, sui,'ested that the hour had not yet arrived in Nebraska for the giving of public offices to any man who had been mixed up In the atate treas ury shortage. "There was proof at hand that the repub lican nominee had been among the borrow ers of money from the state treasury. He tendered his resignation to the republican stato committee, and the committee named another man in his place. Shortly after ward he moved away from Nebraska, and we understand he died a few months ado. "And now Mr. ttitohnnf k will vnn tulfh- ' ft1? from tho lemo.;ratlo ticket as a can- uiumo lur unuea mate senator, as you requested that other man to withdraw irom the republican tlcketT You did not give that republican brother a chance to withdraw before exposure.

'M DID NOT ATTEND THE BAIL MENACE OF CHOLERA GONE Surg-eon General Wyman Has the Sit uation Under Control. HEALTH OFFICERS ON THE ALERT Qnaaantlae and Inspection. Regain tlona So Perfect Not Believed Disease Can Reach Thla Country. NEW TORK. Oct. 8. (Special Telegram.) It was officially announced today at quarantine and at Washington that the menace of cholera had been effectually re moved from American ports. The precau tions taken abroad at all ports from which people who had been exposed to the in fection must embark had become so effective that there was no longer anv reasonable chance of an infected person embarking for this country. These precautions consisted in detaining passengers for observation at all suspected ports until it could be certain they had not been Infected. This has been the work of Dr. Walter Wyman, head of the United States public health service. In addition, the watch against cholera at this port had been made so stringent that health officers of the port said today: "New Tork Is practically impregnable against a serious inroad of cholera." Sura-eon Wymun in Control. Over In Washington Is a little gray haired man with a short mustache Just turning to silver. He is a quiet man, un ostentatious, seldom speaking, almost shy. But he holds cholera menace to America in the palm of his hand. This man is Surgeon General Walter Wyman, who directs every measure that Is adopted to bar the Asiatic death from this continent. And under his supervision the barring of that death begins, not at Amer ican ports, but thousands of miles across the seas. At Naples, at Genoa, at Marseilles, at Southampton, at Trieste, at Hongkong and Shanghai are American doctors whose sole duty Is 'co watch that no person with symp toms of cholera or ships Infected with tho disease sail for this country. The stecii.ge passengers who wish to ship for this country from the cholera lnf.-.cted porta must first pass under the eyes of these examiners. But that Is not all. Lest dormant cholera break out among them on the voy..e,. they are first put aboard ex amination ships in forelpn harbors fnr five days, the time in which cholera usuallyappears. If at that time there Is no Illness among them they are allowed to embark on the vessels sailing for Amer ica, which have been fumigated from stem to stern whose water and food supplies ive been examined and which have re ceived the official "O.

The first step Is for the doctors from the station to board vessels ax they come to anchor off quarantine. The doctora are met at the rail by the ship's mtster and surgeon. The first question asked by the boarding officer Is If there have been any cases of contagious diseases during the voyage, and If there have been raelro Intestlnal disorders. Such allmens are the forerunners of cholera and a case Is ne'er allowed to land without a microscopic exam nation to prove beyond doubt that the cholera germs do not ev.lat.

It is with this knowledge that the Treasury department today reached a decision to put no embargo on meirhan diae and passepera coming to this coun try from infected countries- One Deputy Killed and Five Are Reported Missing. OLD MAN AND HIS SON WOUNDED Admits Defeat After Being Down by Officers. Shot ONE THOUSAND SHOTS ARE FIELD End of Flifht that Una Continued for More Than a Week, In Which Militia Haa Taken Tart, la Knded. i WINTER, 'Wis., Oct. 8 (Special Tele gram.) John Pietx, after being shot In the head, surrendered at about 4.3C thla afternoon. Leslie Diets. 20 yeara old, son of the Cameron dam defender, was shit In the foot, lt Is not known at this hour how seriously llets Is hurt. r sitrr he members of the LMets family have rendered. Oscar Harp, a deputy, was found dead on a hill back of the Diets cabin after Diets had surrendered. diet Collpltch, another deputy, had an ear shot off. Four deputies are reported missing. . WINTER, Wis., Oct 8. The first shooting In tho attempt to capture John Diets at Cameron Dam started Bhortly before 10 o'clock today when John and his son, Lee lie exposed themselves outside of the cabin. Every rifle In the posse of nearly ninety men surrounding the Dletz home flashed fire. John Diets suddenly dropped to his knees. He reiunliied there for a moment and then Jumped to his feet and ran Into the cabin. Leslie had a longer distance to run and showed some fear. Whether he was hit or not could not be learned. It is not definitely established that John Diets was hit. Mrs. Diets was In the midst of the hall of out lets, but was not hurt.' One scream was heard from within the cabin where Helen, aged 14, and Johnnie, aged T years, were sheltered. One of the watch dogs was killed. About 100 shots were fired and live shots fired from the cabin. Both Men Expose Themselves. It appeara, that John and Leslie Dleta walked into a trap aet by the deputy sheriff. Leslie left the cabin to go to the far lde of the clearing for a cow. He had proceeded about 250 jams wntn a single shot as fired at him. This waa followed by twelve more In rapid succession. Leslie Jumped back and ran along the crest of tha hill on which the cabin stauds to get be hind a lumber pile. For a dlBtance of aoout 200 feet he was a fair target for the guns of tho officers. He weakened ss he ran, but whether it was from fear or because ha was woundod can not be learned. John Dlfetr, when the shooting started, was between the barn and the lumber pilis. Behind one of the plies of lumber were some deputy sheilffa and he received the full fire from these men. He suddenly pitched forward and sank down on his kneea and then lay prostrated for a moment. Then scrambling to his feet he ran for the house and darted inside the door. , Mrs.Dietz was about 100 feet from ths house when the bullets began to fly. Slis ran Inside the house and apparently waa not injured. While these movements were taking place the tusilade was kept up from all sides of the clearing. The boom of high power rifles waa accentuated by the cracg of the automatic plHtols and, considering the number of shots fired, which have been estimated at luo, it is a wonder the three members of the Diets lamny were not riddled with bullets. Neither Man Carries Rifle. Neither John nor Leslie carried a rifle, If they had revolvers on their persons they were not In view. Wlien they were all within the she , five shots were fired back through ths windows. That was all the reply. Intcrmlttingly the guns of the besiegers continued to crack, bu finally quieted down. , A tc.ream was heard within the cabin during the shooting. Whether one of the bullets found a mark In the body of one of the little child, en or whether the person screamed from fright la not Known. Over night the Diets farmyard had been taken possession of by the ofilcers. Newspaper correspondents, of wliora there are a score, and townspeople, who had arrived Just before daybreak, were huddled about In the misty dawn with teeth chattering from the damp earth, expecting to witness an execution. Slowly the curtain of i"g lifted, revealing the dim ouUlncs of the cabin. Dogs came out and lazily stretched them selves. The faulty, which had kept a Ut vlfcll last night, was not astir at the ao cuKiomed early hcur. All Minilx-ri of Family Appear. It was 7:35 when Dletz appeared and con. flde.nlly walked dirot-tly to the barn be. tween lt and the lumber piles behind which the deputies were concealed and rcarpeared on the oilier side.
