Hcincmbor the Hrst championship gnmo takes place nt McCormlck park this after noon. Billy Alvord , Dos Moines old third base man , has signed with the Cincinnati league team. The Omaha management will gain llttlo fame by reason of their score card it is too illmsv. Joe Qulnn made the first homo run for the BoUon League club , nnd won a box of cigars thereby. Citnavnn failed to surprise the natives in the last two games ho has played with King Kel's Killers. Herman Long is very unlucky. IIo has al ready been spiked so badly us to lay him up for some time.

It Is snld that Doschor's failure to receive n major league umpire appointment Is duo to a habit of forgetting to repay loans and pay bills , which is probably a slander. Peekaboo Vouch Is nt work at the Sacra mento car shops. That accounts for ono of the sixty-six In Palmer O'Neill's ' 1S90 folly company. Where are the other sixty-five ! Billy Klusman denies that ho has signed with Seattle. IIo is still in Cincinnati , nnd declares when ho wants to go spearing seals ho will go up to Bauln'.s bav und bo done with it. Talking through his Dnnlap is obsolete : Dad Clarice says that Gus Schmelz "Is whis pering through his whiskers" when ho says Elmer Cleveland Is a bettor batter than Charlie Hoilly. It Is the game the people love not this fac tion of magnates or that. The game is bipgor than the magnates , and ttio great boom which has marked the inaugural games In the east has ilred enthusiasm which has been dormant since the fall of 16SO. The two main principles of team work are absolute obedience to the orders of the cap tain and n strict attention to the motto "All for ono nnd ono for nil , " Individual prefer ences must often bo snnrlllcod for the sake of a Dossiblu chance of vh-tnrv. There Is likely to bo a little confusion over the two Brooklyn catchers with similar names. Scorers should bo careful about the llttlo I which identifies the vc-ntlemon.

A full repre sentation of the western states' commercial congress was present this morning when President Francis culled the second day'a session to order. The subject under discus sion was the general business nnd agricul tural depression , its causes nnd remedy , .T. F. Skllf of Denver read n paper on " 1'opulntlon nnd Haw Material. " Ho soldi "Population and raw material In ono section must have n trading treaty with population nnd raw material In some other section of the country , iloneu uroso tUo significance of commercial recip rocity between the states of the south and the states and territories of the west. The production nnd accumulation of a surplus was the controlling power In commerce. So long ns man lives In Isolated com munities , each laboring to supply only Its own necessities , there could bo no commerce. All that portion of the United States lying west of the Mississippi river , tlio greater half of the continent , not only In Its area , but In Its resources of wealth and Its capabilities of maintaining the population within this area , contained two-thirds of the natural re sources of the union. It was also capable of inaintniniiif ; n population proportionate tionate to its area. None would question the ability of the western or southern states to support ns largo u number of people to the square mlle as now llvo in Pennsyl vania , with 111.5 persons to tno square mile. All In nil , lipure.s confirm the truth of the statement often made , that the United States In Its area and material resources Is capable of maintaining 500,000,000 people. " Guests were tnen invited to malco ad dresses. Ex-Jovornor Glick of Kansas snld the subject of the greatest interest to the v.-ostorn fanner was the great agricultural depression. Tlio western farmer might ho called n "calamity howler , " but the farmer wus determined , however , to continue his in quiry into the cause and the remedy of such depression until the root of the evil was found nnd eradicated. Ulaino's reclpocity scheme nnd Secretary Husk's efforts In ex tending the markets tor llvo stock wore par tial rmiipiHns fnt tlm iii'Minnt. ilnm-n > mtnn. Speaker Elder of the Kansas house of rop- esentatlvos said the farmer wanted a wider leld. They wanted reciprocity. Reciprocity vas n good thing , nnd they wanted ill they could get of it. Another viiy of relieving the situation was by In creasing the volume of mono- . Still an other way was a combination of farmers against the opposing combinations. The ' 'armors wore now trying the latter method. Dr. Parsons also spoke on the causes of thu depression In agriculture. Ono was the lo.ss of foreign markets to the farmers because llseased cattle would not DO bought. The way to regain this market was to eradicate the disease. U. B. Hall , president of the Missouri stnto 'armors' alliance , said the croatost cause of : ho present depression was partisan politics , i'uo romodlos were a lower tarirt , increase In ; he volume of the currency nnd the regula tion of rnllroaus , so they could pay dividends on only thojactualcapital Invested. * At tno afternoon session letters of regret were road from Edward T. Atkinson of Bos ton and Senator William Stewart of Nevada. Mr. Atkinson said in part : "There Is no luoslion pending on which the future wel fare of the people of the country may so much depend as upon legislative treat ment of the money question. What wo need in order to assure stability in our monetary system , to maintain the unit ot value on n gold basis nnd to give elasticity to the circulating medium nro three facts , as follows : First , providing for the free coinage - ago of dollars of gold or silver in Just the measure that bullion of cither kind shall bo bo brought to the mints to bo converted into ? oin , provided that such net is accompanied ay another. Second , to repeal all acts of legal tender , by force of which farmers , me chanics , laborers or creditors may bo coin- polled to accept payments in silver or gold at the option of the debtor. Third , repeal of lets relating to banking whicn prevent the issue of notes payable In coin on demand , at such times and in such proportions tions as the business of the country may require. " Mr. Atkinson deals nt length with the question of monov and credit , and , referring to various gold and silver coins , certificates mid treasury notes of the United States , says that so long as these various instruments of exchange are redeemable or convertible into ono kind of a dollar and that the best kind , or t > o long as they are equal to each other in their purchas ing power nnd are kept so by being kept con vertible Into ono metal gold or au equiva lent which Is the standard of the world's commerce , credit may bo good and business may bo active. Any doubt of the equality of money Impairs credit. Free coinage of silver dollars without a corresponding change of the acts of legal tender would bo tampering with the unit of value and would cause grave discredit. The proposal to open the mints of the United States to the free coinage of silver dollars of full lo al tender under our present statutes Is but a proposal to collect a forced loan from property , the product of wages and the earningsoi the people ple of this country for the benefit nnd support of n potty industry the handling of sllvororo a product of which the annual value is less than half of the hen'a eggs which wo got every year from our barnyards. The nrlco in our market of our cotton , corn , wheat , meat and dairy products nro established by what excess of the surplus will bo exported. That price will bo llxcd in torujs of gold. Wo cannot alter it if wo would nnd wo would not do it If wo could. Every man engaged in largo tran sactions is aware of the loss and discredit , or commercial .suicide whloh would come from such a parting from the ways of true com merce nnd exchange us would follow an nt- temnt to establish unv other standard tlmn a gold standard In the United States by way of an International agreement. Suppose a seller of cotton , pork , oto. , needs gold dollars and has n right to expect them ; ho claims them , but the buyer offers to nay him in silver dollars under the legal tender act which forces the seller to take such dollars oven If by iroe coinage without the amendments of the act of legal tender they had hccomo worth only 80 cents each. What terms shall wo apply to such transac tion. Such acts of legal tender can only bo Justified for the purpose of collecting a forced loan. They nro acts of war. There Is no danger in coining ns many dollars in sil ver or gold ns the people want who may bring their bullion to thu mint to bo coined. The true and only danger Is in the abuse of the trust under the act of local tender. Lot the law prescribe the respective uses to which the gold dollar and silver dollar shall bo put In the same way , then and then only will frco comugo bo safe. " Mr. Atkinson submits with the paper reso lutions , providing : That the mints bo opened to tbo frco colnugo of dollars or a mutiplo of dollars of silver or gold ; that the legal tender act bo so amended us to provide that In all contracts or arrangements In which the single word "dollar" Is expressed the dollar Implied by that agreement shall bo a dollar made of gold ; that all contracts or agreements for the payment of money In express terms of silver dollars shall bo enforced in all courts by the payment of silver dollars or the equivalent thereof ; that the purchase of sil ver for coinage into dollars at the cost of the government should cease. Senator Stewart In his letter says ho Is In full sympathy with the western states com mercial congress and realized the necessity for united action by the west and south to resist the absorbing avarice of the gold con- triictionlsts of the commercial centers of Europe - rope and the United States. Under the demonetization of silver mortgages have grown heavier nnd the prices of farm products have declined. ' Ho ad vocated the free coinage of silver and making It a legal tender and said the coined silver of Europe was legal tender on a par with gold at a premium of about 3Jn' pol ecat above our standard dollar. Tim roll of states was then called for the Introduction of resolutions , which were re ferred to the committee on resolutions , and among which was the following by Hon. W. J. Bryan ot Nebraska : "That Vart of the revenue nocoasary for the support oC thu na- JL.

' Ex-Governor ( JilaiJ of Iowa responded to au invitation to address the congress , choosing the subject , "Murkijts for Western Prod ucts. " Ho favored more complete railway facilities , Improveiilbnt of waterways and the extension of reciprocity treaties. A recess was tnen taken until this evening , when several .speeches were mudo on various subjects , after which the congress adjourned until tomorrow.

Mrs. Potter Palmer. MissiColzcns said she I would neither retire nor appear before the committee ; that slio was legally n member of the board of lady managers and was neb amenable to discipline from the executive comnn'tco. She also declared that If this commltteo undertook to depose her she would appeal to the courts. The fear Is quite gen erally expressed this evening that the feud may entirely disrupt the , board of lady man agers , an Mrs. Palmer , it is pointed out , is a woman of great ability and determination of character and Miss Cozzcns has a legal edu cation and a remarkable record as a plucky and successful lighter.

Again , there arc men who can't afford to pay even ten dollars for a suit , simply for lack of the ten dollars. Again , there arc men who buy a cheap suit , wear it one season , sell it or give it away , and then buy another. Buying a CHEAPs\\\ \ \ \ { most stores , means buying a POOR suit.
