There Is no talk Hko that based upon dollars
lars In the hand when It cornos to politics.
The man who will back his judgment with
tnonoy is tbo ono who commands attention
when ho uttore political prognostications. A
number of men were about the capllol today
Reeking those individuals who have recently
boon onylng that President Harrison would
not bo ronomlnntod nt Minneapolis , nnd
wherever tboy were found they were re
quired to back their opinions with something
substantial. Two bets were finally made as
n result of this effort , ovoti money bomg
plncod on the president against the Bold.
Two appeared to exhaust the ootlro .supply
of sangulnu Opposition. A number of repub
licans who opposed ronomlnntion for per
sonal reasons olTerod to make wnRors that
the president would bo ronomumtod , nnd
some offered largo odds , ? 1XJ ( to JtXMn ono In-
Blanco being olTorod by nn administration
man.
man.As n pure matter of financial spoculntion
there Is scarcely n betting man In Washing
ton tonight who would not Jump at n chance
to mane a wager that the president Will bo ro-
nouiinutod. On Tuesday n man at the capitol -
tel offered oven money that ho could iiamo
flvo men , ono of whom would bo the nominee
nt Minneapolis. His offer was quickly token
by a democrat when the names were
mentioned nnd it was found tbnt the name
of Harrison was not ninoiiR thorn.
Tlioy I'ut up Coin Cash ,
The contlemnn who accepted the wager
then offered to permit the addition of two
names to the list and again olTorod to give
pormlsslon to add to those seven names the
possibilities of two states , any Iwo which
might bo mentioned , and there were no takers.
Then thob.vrs were thrown down nnd wngors
were offered even on Harrison nealnst the
Hold. Hut two have so far been accepted.
Tins Bin : correspondent would undertake to
Jlnd tukeis for all llio money of these who
bollevo that President Harrison will not bo
nominated nt Minneapolis.
In this connection It is intcrotiiic to note
that Colonel Joe Rickey of St. Louis , the
well Know election plunger , Is bore and tak
ing all the bets ho can get at any terms , that
Mr. Cleveland will not bo nominated. Colonel
Itlckoy U rocognl/cd ns ono of the shrewdest
democratic politicians in the country and is
n ma. , who always bets to win.
A revised list of tbo delegates to tbo Min
neapolis convention who have so far boon in-
tructed lo vote upon the lirst ballot for the
rcnomlnatlon of President Harrison , count
ing those who have been Instructed by con-
tlous hold this week and who have boon up
to this afternoon noted , shows a total of 330.
These have boon actually instructed. These
include the delegates instructed In Mary
land nnd Illinois nnd reduce some
what the number of delegates who
have in Iho absence of instruclions in
dicated their determination to vote for the
president's ronominution nnd these who nro
sure to bo selected for ronominatlon from 211
to till. Added to the Instructed delegates
.Iho Harrison column today swells up lo the
absolute tolnl of 527 , which is sovonty-slx
moro than the number necessary to insure
rcnomlnatton. Counting two delegates from
Alaska , the Minneapolis convention \ \ bo
eompoM'd of oven 000 delegates , i > o that 151
will bo necessary to a choice.

A \\oll known member of congress from

Up to this time but 101 delegates bavo been

I.ittin Hey I.out.
At Twenty-third nnd L streets yesterday
afternoon there was a ripple of excitement
n the neighborhood. Shortly after noon the
J-ycar-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Ucorgo
Jerrarz was missed , nnd a visit to the nclgli-
jors failed to reveal the whereabouts of the
joy. When last seen ho was playing with
"its do ? near a big washout on L street ,
The plnca was visited and to the horror o !
the beholders It was soon that n cave In had
recently tnkon place. The opinion was
lulculy formed that the child and dog were
[ juried underneath. Shovels were quickly
irocurcd nnd the work of removing tbo earth
jogan. After removing n largo quantity of
, ho dirt , the searchers were convinced that
the boy was not buried thoro. A searching
r > nrty was formed and the woods near by
thoroughly scoured.
Up to a late hour last evening tbo whoro-
nbouts of the child was not known. Charles
Scarr , the druggist , snys ho saw the bov
near his store nt Twonty-tourth and M
streets , shortly after noon , but being busy
paid little attention to the incident.
Tno child were n small black lint , red
waist , gray skirt , rod stockings and a ualr of
shoos , tils dog Is a yellow ono , and is un-
loubtcdly with him , as a great attachment
exists liotwoen thorn.

During the noon houryostordnr , and while
Agent C. W. Tynor mid assistants were at
tinner , burglars entered the B. & M. depot ,
at the west end of the L street viaduct , and
jroko opoti the casli drawer of the company's
safe , the doors of which were standing open
Within the drawer were chocks to the
amount of nearly 510,000 , also vouchers
amounting to several thousand dollars. No
currency Is every placed in the safe , conso-
quonlly the ourglars secured no booty. The
chocus nnd vouchers were untouched , the
thlovos evidently believing that to take and
attempt to cash thorn would load to their ap
prehension. A thorough investigation by
Agent Tynor falls to reveal anything as
being missing.

BEGINNING of THE END
The Hellman Administrator's Sale
Has now been going on for two weeks and every clay more and more
interest is being taken , go great is the throng at times that it is almost
impossible to wait upon the customers properly. Thousands of bar
gains have been given out so far and there arc thousands left. At no
time in Omaha's "checkered career" have such immense bargains been
offered in the clothing line. Competition is impossible as neither cost
price or quality is taken into consideration , but everything from a collar
button to a Dress Suit comes under the administrator's knife and the
prices are cut to the core.
