The McKlnley and Hobart marching club
of the Eighth ward held a meeting at Its
headquarters at Twenty-fourth and Frank
lin streets last evening and the hall was
full. Sonic little routine business of no
particular Interest to the general public
was transacted before the speaker of the
evening was introduced. The club by a
unanimous vote decided to unite with the
Eighth Ward Republican club nnd the
Eighth Ward Business Men's Republican
club on the evening of September 29 , upon
the occasion of its contemplated Thurston
demonstration , the purpose of the three
clubs being to participate In the para do in
u body.
Ed J. Cornish was the principal speaker
of the evening and ho was listened to with
close attention during his speech , which
lasted for more than an hour. Mr. Cornish
confined himself entirely to a discussion of
the financial question , paying particular at
tention to the disastrous effects upon the
worklngmen which would follow the tri
umph of the free silver party. A large ma
jority of the audience was comprised of
worklngmen , and during the course of his
address Mr. Cornish was asked to explain
more minutely the points he made In his
argument. JIls reply Invariably brought
forth an approving burst of applause , in
which the men who asked the questions
participated ,
Mr. Cornish was followed by Dr. M. O.
Illcketts , who apoko but a few moments
ami then yielded the floor to Judge Cornish
of Lincoln , who continued the discussion of
the financial question commenced by his
brother.

A tempest In a teapot has been raised
by members of the Omaha Hebrew club , and
the matter has been given almost as much
sp.ico In the local Bryan organ as Is de
voted to the Baurke Corkran meeting , which
was attended by from 12.000 to 10,000 people.
It appears that Prof. Scllkovitsch of Chicago
cage was Invited to deliver n spech on
the Issues of the day. . The professor , how
ever , did not put In an appearance , and
It Is alleged th.it he wus order to stay away
by the editor of The Bee , who , according to
the veracious fake mill , Informed Prof. Sell-
kovltsch that ho would be discharged from
tlu > republican national committee If he
spoke to the. Omaha Hebrew club.
This Is a fabrication , pure and tdmplc , and
without a tOindow of foundation. The pro
fessor called at The Hoc editorial rooms last
week and has not been si-en at The lice
ollleo since. No person connected with
The Bee has communicated with him in
any manner or form , and for that matter
no person connected with the Nebraska
campaign has any authority over his movc-
mentii. On the presumption that n
restraining order had been Issued by iomu ;

In the opinion of Ilonrko Cock ran thu
sweeping > ouml money victory in Mains
means that the dcfcnt of Bryan U fore-
ordained. "H means the collapse of the
free silver craze , " he said yesterday morning.
"Long ago I saU that just as soon as the
people could bo made to rcullzo thr.t this
Is a cinestlcm of labor and not of banks ,
that thu attempt to create cheap money
was a conspiracy uhltli would be moru dis
astrous tn the wage earners than any other
clnes the victory would be won. The re
sult of the nli clion In Maine tljov.f that thU
has come lu pass. When the pioplo thor
oughly undcr-.itand the Issue , every iiorthern
state will bo safe. I even believe that wo
can carry Colorado for sound money on
thin issue. "
Mr. Cockran was suffering severely yester
day morning from his throat , which had been
badly strained by his efforts lo make him
self heard by over 16.000 people last night.
He spent the morning resting in his room
at the hotel and was token to Happy Hol

He left nt 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon

AVorkn to Council Committee.
Kor the first tlmo In several months there
\vai a full attendance of members of the
city council at thu regular meeting last
night. They were rewarded hy n very tame
session. The finance committee had failed
to effect a conference with the liolln bonds
men yesterday attc-rnoou and consequently
no report was submitted on their proiiosl-
tlon to fettle the claim of the city. The
following veto from Mayor Uroatch was sus
tained :
1 huvo the honor to return herewith with
out my niiprovnl u resolution Instructing
the Hoard of Public Works "to do only such
work IIH tuny be imthorlzod l > y concurrent
resolution of the elty council ; provided Hint
Biieh emergency work as la absolutely nec
essary may be authorized by the specliil
commltteo appointed by the city council ,
pending aetlon cf the council. " The mayor
Is the executive olllcer of the city mid Is
competent to puss upon the question of
emergency. His prorosatlviw cannot be le
gally tnUen from lilm nnd Invested In the
hands of a committee. No Indebtedness can
bc > legally created without the consent of
thu mayor , nnd yet It Is proposed to grant
this power to u committee which may or
may not use It to the best Interests of the
elty. H was understood In creating the
committee that It should rxcretne a super
vision over the authorized expenditures of
the Hoard of Public Works , and not that It
should have the power to pel form the leg
islative functions of the innyor and council ,
which cannot be delegated. This commit
tee carried through the cotinclrtu report
which , had It not been stopped by the
mayor , would have Involved the elty In an
expenditure of from $5,000 to $7COO on Hick
ory street.
Thereupon Allen and Taylor resigned their
places on the special commltteo on the
ground that the mayor had approved the
resolution before It was passed nnd had now
endeavored to criticise the work of the com
mittee. The resignations were laid on thu
table.
Clerk Schwcnck of the police court com
municated the allegation that ho was un
able to furnish the report required by the
council without additional assistance. Hc-
fcrrcd.
WANTS PAY FOR A BICYCLE.
Adolph Henwall wanted the city to pay
him the value of a bicycle that he says
was broken on account of a hole In the
street. The committee on claims will con
sider his case.
The peddlers of the city presented n peti
tion , in which they protested against the
ordinance recently introduced which pro
vides for their expulsion from the market
place. Referred.
The committee on public property and
buildings wat , directed to obtain bids for
moving the election booths.
The poundmaster was instructed to stop
Impounding dogs September 30.
Resolutions by Kment directing the
Hoard of Public Works to make slight re
pairs on the Sixteenth street viaduct were
referred.
Kennard offered a resolution by which
the rate of Interest on $17,000 In matured
bonds held by the Harber Asphalt company
was raised from fi to 0 per cent and or
dered paid out of the sinking fund. It was
stated that these bonds carried 6 per cent ,
but that by a council resolution the rate
had been reduced. It had now been dis
covered that the council had no right to
reduce the Interest. The resolution wa-
adopted after some discussion.
D. T. Mount was allowed ISO for sprink
ling Center street during fair week.
A report from the committee on , sas and
electric lights was adopted , which , took the
position that.the. cost of moving electric
lights from one location to another shouK *
be borne by the city.
The proposition of W. R. Bennett to sell
n lot at Fifteenth and Jackson streets to
the city was declined.
A resolution by Kment directed the chief
of police to "stop driving cattle over tlw
Tenth street viaduct. " It was adopted and
the next tlmo Chief Slgwart Is caught
chasing a herd over that structure he is
liable to cot pinched.
Duncan's ordinance requiring a sanitary

nance ordering South Sixteenth street re-

COCKRAN'S SPEECH
Had such an effect on a silver compositor in The I3ec
office that he reduced our $19.50 suits to $1.50 in our
yesterday's ad The proof reader accounts for the
oversight by saying that he thought it was the ad. of
another concern who reduce all their $25.00 , $28.00
and $30.00 suite to $5.00 once a week or so , and he
didn't see anything unusual about their claiming to sell
_ $19.50 suits for $1.50. "The Nebraska" doesn't do
business that way , We have too much respect for the
intel.igcnce of our readers and we have too much faith
in thcl lowness of our prices to stoop to such flimsy de
ception or to think that the public would believe us il
we did. What we did say and what we now repeat , is
that the suits we are selling at $19.50 arc the perfection
of ready made tailoring1 and the finest that can be
produced. Incidentally we may rennrk that if these
same suits were marked 25 , 28 or 30 dollars , they
would command a great deal more respect from certain
people , but they wouldn't be any better suits. The
truth is , there are no better suits. Your tailor if he is
honest , will tell youTthat he can give you no better
cloth , no better linings , no better workmanship or no
better style. He can give you a better fit if you are
built on irregular lines too tall or too short ; too stouter
or too slim ; but if you are a "regular1' we can fit you
as well as the tailor and the fitting won't cost you a
cent.
