On the nell ot ChlclmDug : the coming
-eelc old enemis will clasp harHis a the
Ions of one mother. Ils i 10 be I family gll-
crlcg , for the nation Is the host nnl the
veernns are the guest , ThCe handshaking
fetes among the blue and the gray may now-
adays show a lack of spontaneity and enlhus-
IA.m a compared with some that have taken
place In the pat , when the experience was a
novel one , but the earnestness II I the same
and the moanIng more signiflcant. Fraternization -
nton Is complete : good feeling has come to
stay : former Ilspla's were riot prematurp.
. When the Society of the Army of the
Potomac , entertained Lee camp of the conCed-
eralo veterans In Baltimore ten years ago
the enthusiasm was unbounded , and yet the I
partcipants were not of the class that lose
their heads over trlfe ! . Major Martin
Maginnis was the spokesman In blue 10 \el-
he come : the fellows from across the line. Said
"Drothero , Former Foes and Now Friends :
I om requested by the presIdent of thIs so-
ciety to welcome you , and right gladly do I
do It. You tried to gel out of this union and
we went after you to bring you back , and we ,
did bring you back , and why shoulll not
everybody be glad of I 1 Could the victory ,
of the union be more slrongly emphasized
than by your presence hero Could there be
greater honor to us than that we saved the
union for ourselves and for you ? "
The warrior who spoke those words hall
earned the right to do so. He was not only
battle-scarred , but he happened \ have been
one of the Immortal : forty-seven survLvor of
the First Minnesota phalanx who at Oetys-
burl '
"Came back from the Jawa of death ,
" Out from the mouth of hell , " .
leavIng 215 of their number lying upon a
few spuare yards of blood. red earth , within
the confederate lines. They had charged as
a forlorn hope by order of Hancock , who said :
' :1 : would have ordered them In If I had
known every mon of them would be killed.
I had to be done. " I
Leo' people were not at loss to match the
lenlhnents wIth which the eloquent major
greets them. While the members of the
camp were filing down the aisles of Ford's
opera house , the Iotomae veterans arose In
one vast body and saluted the line with
Yankee cheers and applause. The camp Ie-
'
sponded with I hearty "rebel yell , " which
the Yankees also cheered wlll . At the ,
campfire following thIs reception the bands
t played I medley 0' union and confederate
war songs-"Dlxlo" leading up to "fled .
White and Due , " and "Maryland , My Mary-
land , " to "Marching Through Georgia , "
In responding to a toast. Private Dohanan
of the Army oC Northern VirginIa said : "We
have just listened to the tunes whIch stirred
us as loldlers twenty years ago , but they
stir me not today as they did then 'Mory-
land , My Maryland' was sweet to me twenty
y.ars ago , and 'Dixie' thrilled me wIth a
passion I can never ferget. Dut there Is nn
older and a more familIar song , God blessed
and dear to all Americans : one whose notes
have never failed to bring back every heart
to duty and to those paths our fathers mode.
" "Tis the Sar Spangled Dannerl Ohl long
may It wave ,
. OVer the land ot the tree Bnd the home ot the
brave ' " .
As soon os the enthusIastic cheers whIch
greeted these words had subsided the bands
slruck up the grand old aIr , and when the
\ chorus came the uproar for a few momenta
was beyond controL The whole audience
arose and joined In , but the boys In gray distanced -
tanced their hosts In patriotIc zeal by waving
their hats and brandishing their canes
. trumpets. through the air In time with the drums and
II ' , RANCOR HAD NO PLACE THERE.
Just as there has been bul one Appomat-
' tax , so there could never be a repeUhm of
the scene of fraternization on that hlattric !
field. An Inkling of what kind or a reception
the boys In blue would tender Le&s men
had been given In the numerous [ taalhy
handshakes on the picket line when rations
or bread , co tee and tobacco changed hands
wIth infinite satisfaction to both parties ,
Iwor enemies though they were. As soon
as the surrender was announced the boys In
blue took the Initiative In letting the men
ncros the line know that personal animosity
bad no place In their hearls. Then the bro
ken ranks rushed together : there were tear
and a chokIng of words In husky throats , and
the Yankees needed no hint to spread out
their plethoric haversacks before the famished
"Johnnies. " I was an easy thin for Oront's
'well-fed rldlers to here their abundance ,
but comIng , as It did , like an echo or theLr
leader's magnanimous proposal to Lee thai
bla men should "retain theIr horses to do
their spring plowing , " It melted the hearts
or the confederates , and II proved far more
than treaties and conventions that the war
was oyr : The antagonists of real fghUng
blood then and there burled the hatchet.
And I I gratIfying as wel as interestIng
k to remember that long before these reunions
of the blue and the gray , anterior to Appo-
F matox , even underneath the passion and the
bitterness ot our civil war there were coun-
tee currents of kindly feeling , a spirit of
brotherhood pervading the opposing camps
Acts of kindness to woundl enemies began
to be noted ot Dull Run , while In every cam-
. paign useless picket firing was almost uni-
& ' formly dIscountenanced. The men shoo
hands at the oUlposls or talked eonfdlngy : of

AMERICA LEADS TIE WORLD IN
, ChIVALRY.
In the four years next succeeding Oordon's
anniversary mass meeting , there were sixteen
formal reunions of the blue and the gray.
One was at FrederIcksburg , os has been
stated , two al Gettysburg , one at Anlltam
and one ot Kenesaw. Several were the occasIons -
casIons of racial visits belweeen Gram Army
posts and Confederate camps. In 1887 , Lee
camp took part In the ceremonies at the
anniversary of Bunker ll , and enjoyed a
perfect ovation at the hands of the people
ot the Day stale. In that same year the
confederate memorial exercIses at Stounton ,
Va. , ere conducted jointly by the blue and
the ray. The union cavalry leader , Averel ,
whose squadrons , more than those , perhaps , of
any other one general had deoled the fair
valley ot Virginia , was present , a most conspicuous -
spicuous guest. A similar scent Is witnessed
every year In New Orleans where the union
and confederate veterans have united since
1878 In conducting on their respective days
memorial exercises for the dead. Thai for-
mlr fees should clasp hands over the graves
or their deal seems natural enough
for men ot valor. The age
of chivalry Is recalled by It
But what shall bl said of the unique
demonstration at the Joint reunion on the
heights ot Kenesnw In 1887 , when lesIze
illuminations of Sherman and Johnston , the
opposing leaders , were greeted wIth volleys of
cheers by the enthusiastic veterans. In view
of an occurrence just passed In Europe , on
the twenty-fifth anniversary or the Franco-
Irusslon battles , the American volunteers
may accept without vanity the remarkable
tribute of the count or Paris. When asked
to be present at the joint reunion of the
Armies of the Potomac and Northern Vir-
ginia at Gettysburg , he declared to the com-
mlteo thai "Such an event as this could
occur In no country on Gods earth , except
yours. While the anniversary fetes are tak-
lag place In PrussIa to commemorate the bat-
ties of twenty-five years ago , the French
minister and members or the legation abandon -
don their posts at Berlin . Defeat Is Indeed
humiliating , but upon none could its stings
be harder than the wild , free souls who
made up Morgan's band of rough-riders. At
theIr reunIon In LexIngton , Ky. , some year
ago , they invited the survIvor of the regI-
meats whIch had routed and captured them
, on theIr disastrous Ohio raid , to meet and
shako hands with them. They went still
farther than that and made a lon of Captain
Tiffany , ke per of the prison where they had
been held In durance , and presentd him with
a goldladed cane as a token of regard for
the jaior who bad lightened up their days
or captivity by treating them like the gallant
fellows they were.
"PEAcE TALK" AT GETTYSBURG. -
Next to the gathering at Chickamauga ,
the one held at Gettysburg on the twenty-
fifth anniversary takes rank as a formal
demonstration ot amity reslored. The SocIety
ot the Potomac met there
by special invitation -
ton the survivors of the Army of Northern
VirginIa. Upon the rostrum In the national
cemetery , where General SIckles spoke , a
striking and hlslorlc group was presented
Dy the side ot Sickles sat hIs old
antagonist , Longslreet , and by the
sIde or Slocum , General Gordon ,
whose corps had opposed Slocum's In the
heavy fighting on Culp's Hill. Thus race to
face were the leaders respectively of the
rIght and left wings or both armIes. Sickles
was the first orator or the reunIon , and
spoke words that could have been born on no
other occasIon. SaId he : "This assembly
marks an epoch. You are the- survIvors of
two great armies. You and your comrades
fought hero th decisive battle or a long and
terrIble civil war. Twenty.fve years have
passed , and now the combatants of 18G3
come together again on -your old field of
battle to unite In pledges ot love and de\'o-
ton to one constitution , one union and one
flag. Today there are no victors and no van-
quished. Gallant Buford who began the
battle , and brave Pickett , who closed the
struggle , fitly represent the IntrepId hosts
that for three days rIvaled each other In
titles to martial renown , Among the hundreds -
dreds or memorIal structures on this field ,
there Is not one bearing an inscription thai
wounds the susceptbites or an honorable
and gallant foe. " Gordon followed Sickles
and opened wIth this glowing tribute to the
Potomac veterans , whom e called "My fellow -
low ot the north. " "
countrymen "Of nil the
martial virtues , " said he , the one which Is pr- ;
haps more characteristic of the truly brave
Is , , the virtue of magnanimity.
" 'My faIrest earldom would I give ,
To bid Clan Alplne's chieftain lye . '
was the noble sentiment attributed , to Scot-
land's monarch , as he stood gazing Into the
face of his slain antagonist. That sent-
meat immortalized by Scott In musical and
martial verse wi associate for all time
the name of Scotland's king with those or
the great spirits of the pas. . How frond the
exhibitions of the same generous impulses
that characterIze the victors upon this
memorable field. " . .
SOUTHERNERS CHARGING WITH EXTENDED -
TENDED IAL IS.
Soul-strrIng enthusiasm , coupled with
fraternity and patriotism have ale marked
the reunions ot the blue and gray at Oetys-
burg. But the most noteworthk or thp3e
occasions was when Pickett's veterans , led
by Mrs. Picket shook hands with tie survIvor -
vIvor of the Philadelphia brigade , the year
before the great annIersary. The line was
formed In the evening just a the last train
arrived from the south , Throngs of people ,
who bal been on the qui vive for hours ,
welcomed spectacle with a ceaseless clapping -
ping of hands and the waving ot handker-
chles . . . 'he yankees and southerners
marched with all the distance which the
street allowed between them , 10 represent the
"moody Chasm. " In the public square the
colums halted , with files opposite . At the
orders , "flight fae : ! " and "Left faca ! " the
lines wheeled half about , the mM lookIng
Into each other's eyes. A blue of fireworks
lit up the square , and at the word "Advance !
there was a charge of the southern line 10
the Inspiring air of "DIxie" and hands
were clasped by men who had never met
before nearer than . on that day when they
crosse ] bayonets along the stone wall of
the "Bloody Angle. "
The reunion of 1895 on the fed ! of Chicka-
mauga , lIke that or seven years ago at Oet-
tysburg , marks an epoch. I Is a satsflct : on
to the . veterans to remember that , although
this wi Le the first occasion when the
national voice has spoken its summons to
blue and goy alike , It does not open an era
of experimental friendliness. Rather , It Is
the arrIval of that future ot which the put

when Massachusetts shook hands with Vir-
gInia at Yorktown fourteen ' years ago , when

sounded with mingled cheer and yells , when
"those dread heIght or I < tny" at Gatys- :

The frt annual tournament meeting of the
western division ot tie National Union of
Bohemian Turners was opened yesterday afternoon -
ernoon lt Huser's park , The exercises of the
day were prepared simply for the entertaIn-
ment or resident anti visiting Bohemians , ali
os such were eminently pleasing and success-
ful , The tournament proper occur today ,
when the contests take place.
The program was opened with on address !
by Anton Kment , president d ! the western
division , who spoke or the many advantages
of the Bohemian system or physical culture. I
Ito urged the member of the different teams
present to use every honorable effort to ob-
toln pre-eminence In the contests , In order
to advance the Interest , The speech was fol-
lowed by the other events on the program ,
all of which consisted of exhibition gymnastic
.
feats .
One of the most pleasing and entertaining
events was the second on the rcgrom , and
consisted or a variety of fancy marches , which
were participated In by all tle turners who
were In attendance at Ute tournament. The
evolutions were all pretty , and despite the
fact that the majority of the turners had not
drilled together before were executed wIthout
a break There were more than eIghty turn-
era In the band , all dressed In the navy blue
uniform ot the union.
Following the drill the turner executed a
system of calisthenics , the foundation prIncI-
plo or their gymnastic system , to the accom-
panlmenl or music by a band. The move
menls were all perfectly timed , and were
greeted with applause. They then concluded
their portion or the program by gIvIng an
exhibition of turing on the apparatus whIch
forms tie gymnasium. The exhibition was
such as to predict much for the actual con-
tests which occur today.
EXERCISES OF TiE DAY.
Another of the pleasing features of the pro-
gram was the exhibition of calisthenics gIven
by the class of women , who were all arrayed
In their pretty uniforms , with short skirts ,
sailor blouse and caps or navy blue , trimmed
with narrow white braid. The exercises con-
sIsted of a dumb bell drill , w'llch was timed
so perfectly and rythmlcaly that the effect
was decidedly pretty . The group consisted or
thirty young women , who were all well developed -
veloped anti apparently In the best of health ,
a trIbute to the effectiveness or the physical
training championed by the union. At the
conclusion or the calisthenics a number of the
women gave a very creditable exhibition or
vaulting and 1lgh jumping. -
The Junior cass , which consists or boys
between the ages of 8 and 13 years , some
thirty In number , gave a pretty and wel-
timed wand drla , under the direction of theIr
Instructor , Joseph Pecival. This event complete -
plete the program , and from the time Is was
finished until 8 o'clock , when the excursion
train returned to the city , the time was spent
In social enjoyment , supplemented by musical
selections.
The turners and spectators arrIved on Ule
grounds early In the afternoon . the excursion
.traln of six cars which carried them having
left the Webster depot at 1 o'clock. The attendance -
tendance numbered over 600 , among them
being some or the most prominent people In
local Bohemian society.
Today the prIze contests of the tournament I
will take place at Huser's park , and , judging i
from the exhibitions that were gIven yester-
day . , promise to b very interesting. An In-
\.laton Is publicly extended to all state ' fair
visitors who take an Interest In gymnastic
feats to bo present , as the members of UtO
union are sanguine enough to believe that the
performances will rIval any gymnastic exhi-
biion that has been seen In thIs part or the
country.
SCOPE OF TiE UNION.
The exercIses will commence at 9 o'clock
this morning , when the contests on all the
apparatuses will occur. In the afternoon
what might bo called the field sport contests -
tests will begin , consisting of vaulting , pole
vaulting , distance and hlg1 jumping. In the
evening a grand bal will be gIven In the
new Metz ball , on South Thirteenth street ,
where the winners or the different event will
be announced. The events will bo both for
classes and IndIviduals.
On Tuesday the visiting turners and their
frIends will be escorted to the fair grounds
to take In the bIg fair. The tournament will
finally close on Wednesday night , when the
dramatic branch of the Tel Jed Sell will
present a comedy entitled "Doctors , " at Na-
tonal hall. .
There wi be more than eighty competitors
In the contests today. There are three teams
of the frt grade , one from Omaha , one from
St. LouIs , and the other from Cedar RapIds ,
ha. , although there Is one member from Crete
and three from Plats mouth In the grade
which will compete for IndIvidual prizes In
tlls class. In the second class Cedar Rapids ,
Crete , Carkson , lllgan , Prague and Ilatts-
mouth are represented by teams. I Is regretted -
greted that Wiber , one of the largest Do-
hemlan settlements In the state , and which
has heretofore always been represented In
this portion of the country , has sent no team.
Each team consists or seven men. The
Cedar RapIds teams are accompanIed by
about fifty frIends , and each of the other
teams Is accompanied by a number or Id-
mirers Of the St. Louis team , one member
Is August Stacek , hlef of the National union.
The western dIvisIon or the Na-
tonal Union of Bohemian Turners
Is one or five dIvIsions of the
union , which covers the entire United States.
1 was formed last year , and comprIses the
states of Nebraska , Iowa , Missouri anti Kan-
sas. No tournament will be held next year ,
as In June the tournament of the entire union
occurs In St. Louis.

l0ele n Double CCltur ) ' .
C. E. Jenkins , a member of the TourIst
Wheelmen of Omaha , rode the first double
century ever made In this section of the
country Saturday , September 7. lIe was
unaccompanied with the exception of the
last fifteen mi'es ! , a couple of his frIends

was vIa Council Bluffs , Missouri Valley and
on toward Sioux City Ia. , I distance of 10
miles , and return. While the day was rea-
sornlly cool , the roads were In very poor
condition for I long journey , and the wind ,
whIch was blowing In his face on the way
out . changed just before his return , makIng
I nee'sary for hIm 10 ride against the wind :
the entire distance The time allotted for a
double century Is twenty-two hours , but
Mr. JenkIns completed the trip In a little
over twenty hours not only having the
credit ot making the first double century ,
but In a remarkably short time.
tme.
The tact that a century out of Omaha In
almost any direction Is through very hilly
country caused many of hIs friends to doubt
whether or not be would be able to make
the trip In the twenty-two hours allowed ,
but hIs having done 10 , and also having
finished In much less time than prescribed
demonstrated beyond a doubt that he pos-
sssel an unusual amount of energy anti
the neceuar qualifications for long dIs-

Several local riders have made the attempt -

WHAT WILL TIE GOVERNMENT DO THEN
Fate of the TrlA"ury i'hicn lie STn-
elentc Steps Oct the l'rohlel
Noi-i'rosperity of thc
l'eoille a hopeful Sign ,
NEW YORK , Sept 15.-We have had a
Week ot much stock market unhappiness . The
government bond syndicate has been giving
speculators a chi , 1 was shown In these
special dIspatches a week ago that most of
the professional talent of the street was workIng -
lag for lower prices , while the rank and fe
of the lesser operators were free buyers , the
fate of tIm big bears and little bulls depend-
lag alike upon the mystery of what the bond
syndicate might to or not do.
I was pointed out , too , thai bad Impressions -
alone were crated by an abundance of talk
In hIgh circles , some of I certainly carefully
InspIred , suggesting another government
bond issue I Is beyond all question the
public temper Is being tested on that iine.
The indications are too clear and abundant
to be doubted. 'Val street ha9 understood
this , and the result has been speculative dls-
quietude that has upset the plans of many
of the bull leathers .
'Ve have hall big gold exports attended by
sersatonal rumorp. Even Rome bankers
known to have Important Interests In the
bond syndicate have jowed In the export
movement This later act has been mate
a vast deal or by the bear contingent. 1
has even been quoted 10 significant as the
s'ndlcate's own wish to have gold to keep
on going abroad In large volume 10 IS 10
Induce another bond Issne. The fact that
the syndicate Is credlel1 In financial circles
with profs of from $6,0,0 to $16.0.0 on
its present transactions makes It easy to
persuade the average man In Wall street
that more fnanclorln ot the same sort vihl
wi
be earnestly worked for.
SYNDICATE HAS IEIT ITS PLEDGES
In the face or these full and easy predlc-
ton about the o'ndlcato' plans we have
not heard a. single tangible basis for '
a tanllble any re-
fecton upon the way In which its financier-
Ing has been done The bond Issue Itself
constitutes a scandal , but from the day the
syndicate began its "orlt there has been no
discernible move by It which critics can
characterize as unpatriotic.
Certainly from the standpoint of mere
financial generalship its work has been
brilliant. In all our national financial his
tory wo have had but one or two such
transactions of similar consequence executed
so adn rably. But with the outgoing of this
month the s'ndlcate'e work , or its relations
to the government , It least , are ended. Its
tanks do not go any turther.
In this there Is not encouragement. The
treasury , so tar as maIntaining a $10.0.0
gold reserve Is involved , has no better situation -
aton now than It had when months ago the
government fnanclerlng was turned over to
the bankers Its troubles have been re-
level but only temporariiy. There. has
been no cure.
All this " 'al street comprehends and
worrIes over. What may happen after Octo.
ber I , when the syndicate Is not at call ?
Till that time no real , or at least no Immediate -
mediate cause for alarm exlsls. Two whole
weeks or smooth s trg are ahea : -but after
that two weeks , what " Wall street Is not
pondering this conundrum In any listless
way. Every lye man In the Stock exchange
district Is exercised over the situation .
FUTURE IS UNCERTAIN.
The fact that the bankers have rushed
forward to make deposits of some millions
or their surplus gold In the treasury pleases
the professionally hopeful people , but one
must need to be hopeful by profession to get
much joy out of the prospect.
The $0,0.0 gold reserve superstition Is
crazy enough In fnanclerlng , but I Is not
more remarkably silly than the buncombe
talk which Is I heard In some Quarters about
Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Carlisle being able
off hand to fix up ever.thlng. Depcndence
on that sort of talk will make speculative
souls very sore.
OutsIde oC the gel } export scare and the
apprehensions that the government may
have to revert to another bond Issue or In
some other way seek expensive relief , even
to the point oC sacrificing national credi ,
there Is not much encouragement In the
financial situation. Grain Is low priced , but
crops are re'ord-breakers In their size.
Commercial interests generally are In good
corditiob. 'Vholesale merchants east and
welt are doing the biggest business of year
IndustrIal enterprises are boomIng. There
Is plenty ot work now everywhere. Wages
are up. Coxeylsm Is forgotten. The people
are making money and spending It. Railroads -
roads are busy. In all thIs there Is the Indi-
caton and the test of prosperIty. But the
bright side so promInent Is only making
mote conspicuously distressing the situa-
lion of a government treasury wIthout competent -
potent administration , national credit put at
the mercy of the Wall street money chans-

BOSTON , Sept 16.-Tho American Wool

Excepting Boston , the wool markets during
the past week have been quiet , and business
has been confined mostly to small purchasers -
ers : domestic wools especially have been
quiet. In Boston however , saes show I
slight Increase over those or the preceding
lght
week , but In New York and elsewhere ailes
have been moderate. Prices , however , have
ruled steady , and there Is no weakness dls-
cernlble anywhere. Some western holders
who have been retaInIng their wools It extreme -
treme prices may b a little easier to deal
prices. with , but this has no bearing on market
The slel In the markets or Boston , New
York and Phiadelphia amount to 6,17.9
pounds , against 4,10,10 pounds last year for
the correspond period.
Boston sales amount to 3GoC pounds.
The market has been more active this week.
Prices for good merchandise remain firm.
Sales In New York aggregate 1,45.0
pounds. Few interesting features are noted
this week Domestic wool Is exceptionally
quiet. Prices , however , have ruled steadY.
Philadelphia sales for the week aggregate

998.40 pounds. The market Is quiet , sales
being confnell principally to local buyers.
The amount of wool coming forward Is very
lmied.

LONDON , Sept 15.-Therc has been an increased -
creased demand for money In connection
with the stock exchange settlement , but
after a momentary rise quotations relapsed
to the former level There is a prospective
demand and improved trade. A sternly increase -
crease in speculation , however , is expected
soon to harden values. Since the settle.
ment has been restricted prices show a
drooping tendency. The enormous expan-
sian of mining speculation has led to chang.
ing prohibitive rates for continuing trans.
actions. Many bonsequently , are closing
accounts , which led to lower quotations.
The Americans market was weak on a
threatened renes'al of the crisis through
gold withdrawals. The heavy exports of
gold hed to the belief in some quarters that
a new bond issue is inevitable antI the attl-
tude of the syndicate was regarded by many
as being taken with a view to forcing another -
other issue of bonds at an early date. A
further advance in South American bonds
Argentines and Union Pacifies occurred and
Central l'aciilcs are attracting buyers ,

synthicato had faileth to inttke good the loss

proved it great disappointment : the dcliv-
cries in the northwest were larger- being

corresponding % vcek last year. There were
also indications of a big increase in the
visible supply next Monday , against a the-
crease of 3,000 bu , the correspondIng week
last year. All this had a most depressing
influence anti the selling pressure was con-
sitlerablo. There were times , however , when
the weakness was combatted with a good
( heal of vigor but without touch success ,
The robablo big increase in the visible , the
weakness in stocks and the fInancial outlook
were all against it. Ieccnsber sold from
&Stc to Sic split to 57c , made several no-
actions on the way down and closed at 07c.
Corn Was lirm for a few minutes about

celpts wll increase in the near future. The
hatter was the renson for exceptIonal weak-
noes in the near futtires , September closing
at 3ltc , as against 32c yesterday. May ,
although also weak , did not get below lie ,
which was the value at the close. Today's
receipts were OIl cars by rail and 20,000 fin ,
by canal , and Monday's receipts are call-
mated at 600 cars.
Trading in Oats was quiet. At the open-
lag prices were steady , bust fell off Inter in
sympathy with corn. May ranged from
2l'-c to 0c , antI closed at 20c.
