The hunt for the murderer of Mrs. Axe
his rot been abandoned. Three weeks ago
I this morning the body of the murdered woman -
man was found lying In the weeds at the
' 'foot of Avenue C. Her head had been
| < crushed In numerous place * by savage blows
from some blunt Instrument
The police have Investigated the case
Ijmost carefully and have followed several
tlena to the end. but have finally come back
( to one ot the first suspicions. The man eus-
ccte-d has not been arresu-d. Every clr-
umstan 'e connected with the murder so
far as kr.-wn points to this man as the mur-
Idcrer The utter Inability of the most lux-
furlant Imagination among the police officers
r to suggest a motive was the one thing that
prevented the officers holding the man from
the start. Hut within the last few days the
motive ha been supplied and the arrest of
the man will follow within 3 short time.
The reporters as well as the police- know
the name and all that Is known of the BUS-
pet'ed man. The evidence U all circum
stantial , but Is very strong and direct
There are a few weak places In the web
that has been woven around the suspected
man. One of them U the failure to account
for the presence of the roan and the woman
at the point where the murcer was com-
-d but the officers hate some Informa-
tl.n that may explain this.
U hss been freely Intimated that the offi
cers have not pushed the case for the reason
that no reward has been offered for the
apprehension of the murderer , but this Is
Indignantly denied. . The officers say that
when they get their case worked up eo thor
oughly that conviction must follow arrest ,
the arrest wlil be made.

From all Indications the great Palmer
end Bttekner meeting to be. held this after
noon will be one of the largest rallies of
the campaign In Council Bluffs. The com
mittees having the meeting In charge hate
met with the greatest success , and the two
generals and their party will be given a
royal reception by both "republicans and
democrat * . The old soldiers have decided to
turn out and act as an escort from the
Northwestern depot - to the Grand hotel ,
where a reception will be held before the
meeting.
The terlet of school bouse meetings that
supporters of Palmer and Buckner have
been holding throughout the county have
bee-n eminently successful. Four gatherings
have already been held and as many more
are planned to come off between now and
election day. The following rallies have
been arranged for. Mlnden , October 27 ;
Jamri township , October 2S ; Macedonia.
October 29. and Avoca , October 31. Emmet

be. the : speakers at these meetings , and "will
discuss the issues of the campaign from
the standpoint of sound money. Senator

has been more widespread than the sup
porters of sound money In the democratic

a good showing on November 3. As cx-
irossed by one of the leaders yesterday ,
'We expect to poll at least 300 votes In the
county , and If the vote was close we would
undoubtedly carry the day for sound money
and elect the republican ticket. This fac
tor Is one that I believe both parties are
overlooking In their calculations , and es
pecially the free sliver men. "

here under the auspices of the Sound Money
Democratic club of Peorla. The feature of
his speech was a bitter denunciation , of
Messrs. Brya'n and Altgeld. After referring
to quotations by the democratic leaders
from speeches and messages of Lincoln to
support their views of the money question.
Mr. Schurz said. "Abraham Lincoln and
Bryan ! Abraham Lincoln and Altgeld ! To
associate these names together as allies
In a common , aye , to pronounce them to
gether In the same breath. Is not only a
fraud. It Is a sacrilege. As a friend of
Abraham Lincoln , who sat at his feet receiv
ing his teachings of Justice , freedom , and
humanity , and who was with him maoy a
day In his struggles for the rights of man ,
for national government and for the brother
hood of all the American people. I solemnly
protest against this outrage. I call upon
the people of Illinois to resent and repel It.
They are the custodians of Abraham Lin
coln's grave. Let them prove themselves
the worthy custodians of his historical char
acter and fame by burying the repudlators
* nd Inciurs of class hatred who dare to
claim him as their own under a crushing

lag. Saturday night was distinctly a business
and laboring men's meeting. The hall on the
ground floor wai well filled , and the ad
dresses that were given throughout the
evening werr listened to with rapt atten
tion and greeted with hearty applauic. The
many sharp hits that were made at Bryan
and his free silver fallacies were received
la such a manner as to convince any auditor
that the greater part of the audience was
polng to espouse the cause ot William Me-
Klnley.
The meeting was presided over by R. W.
Richardson. The flrst speaker of the evenIng -
Ing was Michael FarreK. whose many timely
remarks concerning the Issues of the .cam
paign elicited much applause He showed a
great familiarity with the coinage laws and
the various financial problems the nation
has had to confront , and drove home all
the arguments that have so far been ad
vanced In the cause of sound money. He
explained at length the Inconsistency of a
business man supporting the free sliver
theory.
He was followed by Dr. Miller , who said
that be had not learned more of the finan-
I clal problems of the nation In thirty years
than he had in the twenty minutes he had
listened to Mr. Farrell. The next speaker
was George E. Mitchell , an employe of the
| city's street cleaning department. He said
that he could not speak from a business
man's standpoint , because he had lost all
his money In business In this city. He enu
merated the many points wherein the Bryen-
lies , as be called the free sllverltes , were
leading the laboring men astray. He went
back to the times when greenbacks reigned
supreme , and explained the coinage laws
since that time. He said that Bryan and
his crowd stood for silver monometallism.
Charles S. Elgutter was the next speaker.
He gave a resume of what both the repub-
I llcan and the democratic parties have said
i about the coinage of gold and silver since
| the war. Before he had finished speaking
I the Union Veterans' club , 100 strong , under
the leadership of Colonel Frank E. Moores ,
arrived , and became a prominent factor In
themeeting. . There tvere several short ad
dresses by the old soldiers , all of which
tended to show that they were In line for
their field comrade. Major McKlnlcy , for

The Veteran's Republican club held a
meeting Saturday evening In the ball in the
Patterson block. The hall was comfortably
filled and the Interest manifested was of the
most enthusiastic kind. A number of appli
cations for membership were received and
acted upon , after which the club went Into
executive session. In a short tine the
doors were again opened and several who
were not members of the club came In
and It was turned Into an open meeting. T.
K. Sudborough spoke for a few minutes on
the political Issues , after which T. W. Black
burn , chairman of the republican congres
sional committee was called for and made s.
few remarks touching the campaign ot Mr.
Mercer. He stated that Mr. Mercer wat
unable to leave his wife , who was danger
ously 111 at Washington , and hoped that the
veterans would not forget the Interests ot
the man , who , in all his congresilonal
career , hid been the friend ot the old sol
dier.

By uncnlmous vote of the club the presi
dent and secretary were instructed to tele
graph Mr. Mercer that they tent Its earnes :
well wishes for the return of health to ilr = .
Mercer , and that Us members would zee to
It that his Interests did not .suffer by his
enforced absence.
Frank E. Moores was called for and re
sponded , by-statins that It was the Intention
lo have a monster demonstration of the
night before the election , and that he hoped
that every veteran who was physically able
would get out and carry a torch , and thos
who were not able to march were requested
to come out and lend their presence to en
courage those ot their comrades who were
able to join in the parade.
At the conclusion of Mr. Moores' remarks
the club adjourned and marched In a boj
to the ball of the Nonpartlsan Sound

with the greatest of enthusiasm.

At the urgent request of railroad mru ,
Hon. T. J. Mahoney of Omaha stopped over

Sound Money club of that city. Conductor
Charles E. Mitchell of the Milwaukee road ,
who was president of the meeting , says It
was the most successful and enthusiastic
rally held In Marlon during the campaign.
Many men who bid hitherto favored free
silver were convinced of their errors by Mr
Mahoncy's lucid and logical presentation of
the financial question , and announced their
conversion by discarding Bryan buttons an
donning yellow badges. "Jt wts. " says the
Marlon Register , "one ot the best speeches
among the many good ones we have heard

difference between coinage on government

posed of the Bryanlte theories and 16 to 1

his remarks were frequently applauded. It

Which fnvetl Ynlc , ,
On Saturday last were played the biggest
foot baU gamts that have been sea so tar
thl * season , and In two Instances at least
thtre were developed the greatest surprises
that followers ot the great college game
have been treated to for a long time. The
defeat of Pennsylvania by Lafayette was the
most unexpected happening to all but the
Lafayette men themiclves , who hid been bor
rowing money for the last two weeks to
wager on this game. The proud Quakers , -who
have'not known tfhelt defeat was since
< 9S , art humiliated beyond measute. and
they are also considerably poorer , for they
were giving the lads from Kaston odds of
4 to 1 on the result of the Bme. and were
betting even that Lafayette would not
score. Penn cad horxd to lay claim to
championship honors for another yc r , but
the rwult of Saturday's game hna doubt-
ess been n death blow to all such hopes
and aplratons. ! Thft result was 6 to 4 ,
but had the came lasted n few more min
utes , Lafayette would have scored again.
Last year Penn defeated Lafayette ,
to 0.
The miserable fumbles of Wiley Woot'ruft
were most costly to the Quakers and helped
to defeat them. He was played at ful- !
bck. and will probably never play there
any more. It looks now as though the
experiment of movlnc nn excellent guard
twck of the line hnd been a bad break.
Woodruff was not the only offender , for
Minds , that usually rrilanle player , was
away off In his work at halfback , his
runts being short and Ineffective. It
was not all due to Penn's weakness , how
ever , for there -was some of the most bril
liant playlnc on the part of the Kaston
lai's that had been seen In Quakertown
for many a day. The work of Barclay at
[ mlfback and IJray at fullback and Rhlne-
tinrt at gimrd was beyond criticism. Bar
clay has for several years been puttlns
up a pame that ranks him with the best
halfbacks In the countryHe tvna de
veloped at Bucknell university. LcwUUurg.
Pn. , before golnc lo Lafayette- , and Is us
superior a base ball catcher as ht Is half
back. Concerning the Riant , Rhlnehart.
the writer recills an Incident of last win
ter that will bear repeating. Letter * werr
sent to the captains of all the leading uni
versity teams after the enc of the season
asklnc for their opinions recardlns the
makeup of an All-American eleven. In re-
plylnc , Clint Wyckoff. the callnnt little
captain of the Cornelllans. said. "You will
doubtless be surprised at my selection of
Rhlnehart as one of the guards for tht *
mythical team. This year we played
ngalnst Harvard. P.rlneeton and Penncylva-
nla. and I also saw the work of the Yale
team from clos quarters , but I never
anywhere saw such work by i jruard as
that against us by Rhlnehart. , He K.IVP
us considerably more bother than any other
guard tve ran against thl year. If he
were playing on the te-am of a leading uni
versity he would Iw known MI over the
country. " From the way Rhlnelrart han
dled the mighty Wharton of Pennsylvania
on Saturday. It would seem that Wyckoff
knew whereof he spoke.
Pennsylvania will probably wake up now
and do some hustllnc to pet ready for the
Harvard gnme on November M and the
Cornell frame on Thanksgiving Day. The
Quakers have a month In w.ioh to prepare
for these big matches , and by that time
should be In good form. If the g.tmes were
njayed today there might b two more de
feats added to Pennsylvania's sorrow. To
be beaten by n minor college team was n
pretty bitter pill for the Quakers , and
they may be relUd upon to work like
fiends In their practice games from now un
til Thanksgiving Day.
The other surprise , equally stunning In
Its effects upon eastern collegians , was
the great game the Indians from the Car
lisle , Pa. , school put up acainst Yale. It
was the greatest match New Yorkers have
had an opportunity of enjoying for many
a day. H was between elevrn full-blooded
Indians and sixteen pale-faced ladi from
Yale. Only eleven of the -txteen Sons of
Kll wore foot ball suits , but the referee ,
the umpire anil the three linesmen were
all on hand to help defeat the Indians
should their aid be necessary And It was
Without It Yale could nrver have won

WASHINGTON. Oct 25. The populist na-
tlonal committee , through Its chairman.
Senator Butler , has issued an oQcial aU-
dress to members of the people's party , urg
ing them loyally to support Bryan and
follow his banner wherever it leads. lue
address Is highly eulogistic of Bryan , as tne
people's champion and warmly commenus
Watson. It urges the people's party not to
be discouraged by the fact that there are
two candidates for vice president In tiic
field , marching under Bryan's banner , it
says there will be two months between the
election , and the casting of the votes by tie
electors , and that there Is surely wisdom
enough In the two parties that support
Bryan to adjust the matter satisfactorily to
all. It says that people's party brethren
need have no fear this campaign will de
stroy the people's party ; that Its principles
are right and thereforeImmortal. . It says
that it democncy lives up to Its pledges
the alliance may be continued , but that If it
does not. three-fourths of their people will
march off under the populist standard , wblcn
.111 has a. tremendous mission to perform.
A fervent appeal not to miss this opportu
nity to succor the oppressed concludes ths
address. _

WASHINGTON. Oct. IS. ( SpiUl.-The
older ne spti-er workers of Omaha will be
pleased to learn ot the good fortune which
has come to George H. Harries of this city.
In being urrntmously elected president of
the Metropolitan Street Hallway company ,
which Is pronounced by American and for
eign experts to be the finest street railway
la the woild Harries has long been con
nected with the Washington Star In one
capacity or at ether , lately as chief oditorUl
writer of that paper. For years hls vas a
familiar face In the press galleries of the
wnato aud house and was regarded as one
of the most reliable of the legislative cor-
reipcndents. He was the Star's representa
tive at Pine Ridge and his work there
brought him trlde reputation as a faithful ,
paluitiklng chronicler of the'Gtlrrlng events
ot that memorable Indian uprising. For a
time previous to becoming attached to west
ern newspapers Harries lived In Idaho , where
his father had charge ot an Indian agent ;
Hs ! early manhood In the west among min
ers , plainsmen and Indians was filled with
stirring incidents.
During years that most young men devote
to school and college he was compelled by
necessity to "rough It , " but he acquired
from that a knowledge of the country , which
has stood him to good service. The knowl
edge ho had gained of t e Indlins during
bis plains life led to his appointment by
{ 'resident Harrison as a member ot the In
dian commission of ISM. A thorough busi
ness man. Harries quits the grind of nens-
paper life with the best wishes of every
worker on Newspaper How. envied by the
correspondents , yet wished well by all.
AND BRYAN OPPOSED IT.
Considerable Is being printed In the east
ern press as to the crop ot sugar beets In
Nebraska and much Is being mide of the
position nryau assumed toward this Indus
try of that state. William H. Michael ,
known to Nebraskans as a careful , conserva
tive observer who for a number of years has
been connected with the senate of the
United States In one capacity or another ,
printed recently In a Washington paper
soso statistics on sugar beets which ehould
be known to every man In Nebraska. Upon
this Industry he ea > s-
"I have a letter from a former neighbor ,
cnc of the most successful and enterprising
farmers in the state , which says : 'I am In
the midst of my beet harvest. I have ten
acres this jear. and the yield is fifteen
tons per acre. I am getting 55 the ton
and my net profit Is JCO per acre. "
"This man's uane Is Henry Ilief. and his
address Is Grand Island. Neb. He U a mem- ,
bcr of the County Board of Supervisors.
What he Is doing others are doing , and the
same results may be obtained by any In
dustrious. Intelligent farmer In that state.
"I have been making some figures on the
possibilities of beet-sugar husbandry In Ne
braska , and I will give them la this letter
The Importation of sugar for this year is
about 3.S99.3S7.55T pounds. This vast
amount of sugar can be produced from
j beets grown In five counties In the Platte
Valley , and there will le over W.OOd acres
ot cultivable land left in those counties for
other purposes. The average yield of beets
per acre will produce about 1.703 pounJs
of nwgar. The number of factories neces
sary to work up the beets to produce the
required amount of sugar will be 9fO. The
capacity of the factories will be limited to
350 tons per day. U will be understood
that the factory never stops during the
'campaign. ' Hence a day in the factory
means twenty-four hours. Each factory
would convert Into sugar the beets from
2.000 acres , or lo the aggregate 1S.SOO.OOO
tons of beets from 1 S40.000 acres.
"To accomplish all this would give em
ployment to 2.50".0 > 0 people. The money
expended for the beets , at { 5 the ton , would

to place the proportion of this that would
go to the farmer at 10 per centum , which
would be J35 SOO.O'KI. ' The cost of the fac
tories would be about J400.OW.OOa This
would , of course , go to the machine shops
and the various building trades. In other
words , the bulk of the vast sum would go
to the laboring people. "
Washington Star : "William , " said Mr.
Meekton's wife , "what Is the matter with
you ? "
"Nothing more than usual. " he antwered
"You ha > en't said anything In the list

"I know It. I tried once or twice , but you
didn't notice It. "
"Da you thing its polite to chow such In
attention ? "
"It wasn't Inattention. It was resignation.
You were eaylng something about sixteen to

"Yes. "
"Well , I don't know how It will work In

that so long as you insist on maintaining a
