Great Bale.
WE ARE GOING TO MAKE THE
GREATEST OFl-'EIl FOR TOMORROW -
ROW THAT WE HAVE MADE
SINCE THE BEGINNING OF OUR
BUSINESS.
The fact Is , wo have too many cloaks ,
and for tomorrow , and tomorrow only ,
wo will give i oil the price of any coat
in our house. Every coat is marked in
plain figures , so you cannot bo done up.
Any ono buying a coat that has not
the money , can pay a small deposit ,
and thereby secure the garment.
Children's ' cloaks will not bo included
in this Mile , but plu'sh garments ,
jackets , in fact all the ladles' ana
misses' coats in the house go at i olT.
Such an ofTor is unheard of , and
though wo ai'o not in business for glory
or in the habit of loosing money , wo are
compelled to do this as the only means
to unload our immense stock , ns it is
getting late in the season , and wo can
not alTord to carry thorn over.
Now , if you want a coat remember you
have a chance that may not occur again
in years t > come.
That is all wo have to say on the cloak
question.
Now there is a lot of now stuff that wo
nro going to put on sale from thoSoigol ,
Cooper A : Co. stock. For instance their
M1LLINEUY.
Wo shall olTor that for about lOc on
the $1.00.
You roinombor wo put on sale the other
day a lot of pattern hats , worth up to
$25.00 , from the Soigcl , Cooper & Co.
stock , at $2.75.
Of course they arc a little bit picked
over , and just to freshen thorn up wo
shall for Monday add a lot of our very
llnest hats to this collection. Hats that
wo got as high as $15.00 for. But as it
is late in the season they will go for the
same price , $2.75.
Now wo want to close out nil the
frames that wo have from tha Soigcl ,
Cooper A Co's stock. I suppose the price
is what our customers are looking for , so
wo will soil them 3 for le.
Wo olTor the best quality of calicoes at
Ifo , 23c and 8Jc a yard.
Wo have from the Seigol , Cooper &
Co. stock 80 pieces of Lyons velvet , worth
from $2.00 to $5,00 per yard. You will
find them up in our second story Mon
day at 9So per yard.
Also have two pieces of black silk
from D. Wiol & Co. 's stock , of Nash
ville , Tcnn. , worth $3.00 per yard , which
wo shall oiler at 09c.
In the three stocks that wo purchased
about two weeks ago that wo have been
advertising that were damaged by fire ,
there wcro lots of goods that were not
touched , not oven scorched. Wo have
boon holding them in reserve , but they
go on sale luondtty.
For instance wo have about 20 pieces
of 50-inch sheeting at 85c , from the
Falls City Manufacturing Co. , and some
still wider , full bleached , extra quality ,
tit lOo , worth 15c.
Wo also have ono case of men's under

Hereafter you will find every day
some big bargains on our second floor.
Como up there Monday just to see

will not allow their goods to bo sold to
known cutters , especially those on this
list , ( we're on the list ) , unless they agree
with the jobber to charge full retail
prices printed on the packages. " Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. also restricts sales
to non-cutters.
The above is n sample of the unfair
and despicable methods adopted by the
patent medicine shylocks to compel people
ple to puy extortionate prices for their
medicines ; and is the direct outcome of
the agitation which him boon carried on
by the retail druggists in this and other
cities for several months past. The cutter -
tor who is williifg to sell goods at a , fair
margin is making inroads into the stu
pendous profits formerly enjoyed by the
small fry druggists and they are leaving
no stone unturned to stillo legitimate
competition and deprive reputable
tradesmen of the God given right to sell
their own goods at whatever price they
sec fit.
But the scheme won't work. It is an
unfailing law ol commerce that where
one man has goods to sell and another
wants to buy them and has the gold to
plank down , ho can always bo supplied.
A proper appreciation of this law would
save some local drutrgists a great dcttl of
unnecessary bother.
Just to show these cormorants , who
seem determined to choke olT legitimate
competition by fair means or foul , that
wo can still buy goods and that wo are
not to bo compelled by any pledge to sell
them at an extortionate price , wo will
sell for

liotliered by n Crazy Mini.
Ninv YOUK , Nov. 2S.- Inspector Byrnes'
detectives have arrested Louis Anna-nil , a
crazy Frenchman , who has been annoying
Mrs. Harriet Alexander , wife of Charles 13.
Alexander , a wealthy lawyer of this city , liv
ing at 4 West Fifty-eighth street. Mrs. Al
exander i i the daughter of Millionaire
Crocker of San Fraucisco.
Armand has been a source of annoyance to
Mr. and Mrs. Alexander for years. Ho was
arrested several months ago and committed
to the Wards Island insane asylum. Within
a few months friends sovurod his release and
ho again persisted in pnymi ; attentions to
Mrs. Alexander. Ho followed her when she
wont out , made repeated attempts to see her ,
and finally threatened her husband. Ho
became so persistent that Mr. Alexander
asked Inspector Uyrnos to arrest Armand ,
and ho was committed today for examination
as to his sanity.
The story of Armand has boon told before.
Ho is about id years old and well educated.
Mrs. Alexander was n young girl in San
Francisco and Armand was engaged as her
French tutor. Ho taught Miss Crjckcr
French lessons and when his time was up ho
was dismissed. It was then that ho llrst
began paying his attentions to uor.

Superintendent Hamilton of the Boatd of

feet deeper In the center than about the
edges , leaving a oencli about two foot wide
all'tho way around und extending up ulna
feet from the bottom of the pit. Jn measuring
the cuss pool it has beou customary , so the
contractors say , to run a poln down to the
bottom In the cantor of the vault , tnoasuru
the width at the top and from thuso ilitnon-

the pool. The school board has therefore
been paying for the removal of this bank

True InwnrilnciN of fie Appi-ouolilni ;
Kailwiiy Investigation.
That the federal grand jury will meet
Monday and pay some attention to alleged
violations of the interstate commerce act
has created considerable excitement among
certain railway onlclnls and shippers. The
indictments returned by the federal grand
juries in St. Louis and Chicago against rail
way odlcials for favoring certain shippers
and against shippers for demanding cut rates
and accepting rebates from railways against
small competitors has shown the public that
it is the Intention of the commission to see
that alt are given equal and reasonable rates.
Vostcrday it was known that Special
Agent 1C retch mer , of the commission , was
in the pity and in consultation with United
States Attorney Baiter. A
endeavored to interview hin ,
investigation but 1' . Ml.i " . -

, wa. .
wn j0 SBO.II
complaint of certain shippers who ciU A.
that certain railways were discriminating
ngaiust them by giving Inside rates to com
petitors thereby virtually ruining their busi
ness.
"My mission is merely to assist
In the investigation , " said Mr. Kretchmer ,
"and if ihoshippers tire discriminated against ,
the grand Jury must decldo which way.
Tills is all I have to say in the
mailer , and 1 want to have it understood Uml
all this rot hi certain pupors pretending to Lo
interviews with me are fakes and do me uu
injustice. "
Tills is all the gentleman would say , and
other sources of information were sought ,
with better result. The railwny olllcial In
terviewed said he wns thorodgldy familiar
with the facts mat called for the eoniing in
vestigation and ho was not averse to telling
till ho knew.
"Somo months ago , " husald , "the Nebraska
Stone company of Omaha , owning quarries
at Lyons , Colo. , on the Hue of the Burlington
it Missouri railway , made im open complaint
to the IntonUuto commission mat rates were
being manipulated against it in favor of n
competitor and asltir.g for an investigation.
The opuu ruta from Lyons to Omaha is Kl'J '
cents , but tbo competitor , it is alleged se
cured at lu.ist a l'.i cent rale. The commis
sion thereupon instructed the olllcial agent to
visit Omaha and explain the situation to the
United States attorney , und If bo deemed the
case ono of merit to present It to the grand
jury und aid the complainant in securing
equal rates. From present Indications
United States Attorney Baker thinks ttio
Nebraska Stone company has good grounds
for the allegation , nnd will endeavor to dis
cover whoroln thu dilllculty lies. The lu-
vorcd shipper is Hugh Murphy.
"Another and of s-ust
case , ono importance
to the packing interests of Omaha , is 11
manipulation on shipments to the east. It
was impossible for ptntill houses to stand
such competition and a re picnt was made
that an end bu put to such unjust dlscnmlim-
tion. This complaint tvns made some tuna
ago , but It was Impossible to secure the lacta
until this date. The linn Involved is lliu
Armour Packing company , and the line uu
which the manipulation occurred uas the
Missouri Pacific. Kansas City und Omaha
take the same rates , and on thin division of
rates , a shinpor ny joining with the ruihuiy
ofllcials could easily mut.ipulato tau-s in his
favor. In this case , 11 U alleged , AIM.our . &
Co. would order sweet pickled hams from
the Omaha Packing company. Those hum *
would bo billed out on u slip bill and when
the car reached Kansas City the pickled
hams would bo unloaded and Inn ! subs-ti-
tutnd. 'Iho agent at South Omaha would ,
then bo Instructed to make billing lead lard.
By tins manipulation Armour & Co. , re
ceived free transportation of sweet pickled
hams.
"This m-nctico provmlod for somu time ,
ami finally tar. l-'ulihorii , chairman of tha
Western Trafllo association toolc the matter
sin hand and ordered an invcstlg.uloii by
Superintendent Carman , of the Weighing us
soclatlon. This resulted In oxoosing Iho deal
and Hie the InterstateCommoicoccinimisslon'a
attention was called to it. l Minimum Alldgoly
ntid FiiHIiorn will both bo hero to testify in
regard to this tnmsnctimi. The investiga-
tlou will probably continue ono week and
promises to put n stop to this method of ills *
tTlmlimtlon. SVhat railway oiuViuls nnU
roprosontatlves of Armour & Co. were guilty
of making this alleged Illo/ul deal is not yet
