Where there has been a loss Instead of a profit to the bank , by the same rule which follows , s docs night the day , the people , too , have been weakened In their builness Interests , whether they wcro of largo or small volume , whether of a com mercial or a manufactunss character. The Interests of all the people of a nation are but the aggregated Interests of all Its Indi vidual cltUrns. The teaching of the doctrine that ono can permanently prosper through the less of another Is false In theory an It la false In fact and controverts the ex perience of the whole commercial world. " ( Applause. ) IJEYOND LEGISLATIVE BODIES. "Wo have seen In this period of untowarl conditions , which , happily , are passing , an up right people * and a people of common sense led away by doctrines which the history of the whole commercial world and the upbuild ing of every great nation prove to be untrue. Wo have seen a phase of A great financial question turned from a Icglt.jiata channel of discussion and cunningly used by demagogues nnd designing politicians as a rallying cry to bring together under their banner all the elements of discontent In the country , not for the putiioso of assisting the people , or of properly eolvlng the question , but for the aiding of their own political ambitions. They have prostituted the Issue Itself and placed In a falsa position thousands of honest , law- abiding people , who are disinterestedly bellev ore In the silver standard. Wo have horn taught that somehow In the 'bo It enacted * of a legislative body rests the beginning and the end of all tint Is sound In finance , and all that Is productive of prosperity to the pee pie. These who have taught these doctrines have cither'not studied the history of the commercial world aright , or they have not studied It at all. Standards of value , methods of exchange , means of transfer of property never have found their origin In IcgltlalUo bodies , but they were born of tlio necessities of commerce , and were first onactcd lu the parliament of commerce. "Tho bank was long since declared tn bo the hand maid of commerce ! and from flint to last the truth of that assertion has found ample proof. The metallic dollar. Ilia check , the bill of exchange have como about in the evolution of the world's commercial needs just as have come about In thu evolu tion of facilities for transportation the things which best answnr to the needs of the people- In that < llicctlon , The metal which It Is deemed shall by legislative flat again takes IU place among thu great monetary metals of the commercial world lost Its place In its transactions not through any prejudice against It , not through thu demand of thu bankers or business meu of any country that the volume of the world's money might bo diminished by one half , but Instead for the simple reason that silver no longer best answered the Interests of commerce In bring ing about the transfer of property from ouo individual to another In the best way. ( Great applause. ) The struggle of the commerc'al world has been to seek a cheapening process by which the dally transactions of commer cial life should bo had. Thu struggle of the commercial world has been to obtain that thing alone as a standard of value so un varying In the Innumcr.iblo transactions of trade and commerce and the Incalculable volume of them , It should require neither Calculation or reflection and as the basis of contracts should over bo certain and Unite. The gold standard has been adopted t because or a love of gold or a deslro to tiurt or Injure or Impoverish any section of the country or any nation , but wholly for the upbuilding and the enrichment and the advancement of all peoples and of all sec- ( Applause ) , And however much there legislative enactment upon the qucs- iandardB , whether It bo of a single Pi combination of nations , I believe Immutable laws of commerce vvll ; against them all. The course of his woulu' ' be changed If It did not. Legls latlon cannot restore that thing which commerce morce has decreed does not best answer the purposes of commerce. ( Great applause ) WIPE OUT TUB AGITATION. "When this fact Is realized wo shall cllml- . . . ttalo from our politics thu agitations of the * * past from which the business of the whole country , and especially In the west , have Buffered. The west more than any other sec tion must have brought to It the surplus Investlble capital of the country If the re sources so essential to Its prosperity arc ibcst to bo developed. ( Applause. ) Thcro Is no room In a new countiy for any mone tary heresy. ( Applause. ) New England might tolerate for a brief tlmo an improper idea upon finance and toy with a dlscrc iii cU monetary standard , for New OiiKiand has Jioen settled lor- mom tlian 300 years , and out of these years of development of her re sources has acquired such a surplus capital as to make her a lender nnd not a borrower. Now York may do the same , for her com merce guides the commerce of this country _ her capital has been the acquirement " "of many years. Even the central states arc not endangered , but when the Mississippi river Is crossed a country Is. icached which caii scarcely boast of a city of more than forty years of building and whoso riches , beyond that which has been wrought by the energy of those who have bottled here , are yet undeveloped. The thoughtful citizen hero knows the greatest development of thorn must need have .ild from those see tlons which have a surplus capital. And he also Knows that the lender always raises fho Interrogation point as to the financial doctrines which are entertained by thu people ple who wish to borrow that chh country may 0 made richer. ( Applause. ) "It may bo deemed a hard line to lay _ _ down by the lender and It may be deemed | < ! tUl.j to bo protested against , but this ng capital Is n timid thing , and It Is an blrlng thing , and If It stops to Inquire nithor or no there 4s a possibility that that ftaracter of money In which It Ii sent forth L not bo retutiio'i to Its owner , those who It for Ui - | > urpoao of aiding them In their takings they ought not to complain at j Inquiry.

But thn ono for Ilttlo It not developed and the Fr continues to diminish If not employed. | 3urely upon such a basis the dictates of common sense and the dictates of business Judgment demand that thu pcoplo of the west and of the cast realize the fact that their Interests are common and their Increase in wealth follows upon the same line * . It is destructive of both to tolerate any other tenet In the country's economic beliefs. "I ain certain ( hat at this tlmo when the * country stands upon the eve of reviving prosperity the common scuso of the American people will see how much an Injury has been done thorn by the bare raising In thn minds of many the possibility that somehow the United State * may bo set up a standard In commercial contracts different from that of the other countries with which wo are brought in contact.

Prolonged applause followed I.Mr. Eckels' peroration. As soon as ho bad an opportun ity the toiat master presented lion , J. Ster ling Morton. The sago of Arbor Lodge was well received and responded In a moat nitty vein , scoring the freu sliver fallacy with keenest satire. In concluding his satirical addrcm , In which ho sharply criticised the populist government of the state , ho said : "As a claes of borrowers wo Ncbwskans one It to ourselves to stand up and forever cspouso the cause of the gold dollar. Let It bo known that the men who do most to build up this commonwealth arc In favor of fair dealing , tlion no state In the Ucilon will stand better than Nebraska. " Hon. 'David H , Mercer was next Intro duced as the congressman to whom the people ple of this community owe so much that they have received from the government. Ho replied In a moot felicitous , though brief , address. Ho pronounced Mr. Kckcls the best comptroller of the currency the United States over bad and highly commended the busi nesslike administration of his olllcc. He aald that sound money was gaining new con verts In. Nebraska , fcvory day and added that the slnto could not be fooled two years In succtsilon. Ho believed those who voted for repudiation and heresy last year now navv their mistake , though not nil would admit It , but they would nevertheless go to the ballot boxes Bid quietly vote- the republican ticket im. MIULEIt'S DECLAMATION. Dr. Ooorgo L. Miller thanked the toisl- nwster for aery complimentary Introduction and for the honor of paying his respects to the gitcst of the evening. Ho believed the need of today was to defend the farmers and other classes of borrowers from themselves , to hinder them from obtaining loans too freely rather than to aid them. Ho said the whole gaino of Bryan and his followers waste to cheat somebody , urging the people to pay their debts In 50-cent dollars. This ho con sidered showed a bad state of public morals , and he regarded It as a misfortune that the men who expounded such theories lived In Nebraska. Ho wished they would move out , They preached nothing but gospel of distrust and discontent. He believed that It was more good In combating the free silver foices to \otc a atralght republican ticket than to vote n half ticket. IIo 'Intended to vote for Judge Post at the coming election , Woolworth or no Wool worth In the field. He Intended to vote the straight republican ticket until the demo crats Imilod down the black flag that had been hoisted over them at Chicago. Ho be lieved that If the two pi eminent leaders of the free silver movement who resided In Ne- brabku could bo dislodged tlio end of that movement would soon follow , and he proposed to work energetically to accomplish that end. MANDEHSON'S MEMORIES. The concluding speech of the evening was by General Charles P. Manderson. Ho salt the climax of the evening's exercises had just been reached when ho hoard his good friend Dr. Miller , swear allegluuce to the republican l > arty. General Matiderson recalled the execu tive session of the senate of1803 that con firmed the nomination of James H. Eckels Ho alluded to the fact that the principal op- posltlop to the confirmation of thU nomination came from the banking clement and these were thu men now doing him honor , but who then made him the object of their ridicule. General Manderson supported him as soon as ho learned that he was an attorney , for he believed that he was , therefore , better able to administer the law than any banker In the land. In conclusion , General Mandefson took the bankers to task for their lukewarm support of the opposition to the free silver movement. Ho said as the cry of the free allvcrltcs was "Agitato , Agitate , " so the cry of the honest money adherents should be "Educate , Educate. " OAVAIiRY TAIlUm * COMI'UTITIO.V.

Although Boston has ono more game to play with Brooklyn and Baltimore will play two more with Washington at the Monumental city , the icce for the league pennant of 1S97 prartl rally came to an end with the conclusion of today's game at IMstcrn park. Boston4 won the game , while Washington trpuncod the champions , which leaves Boston the urdls- putcd champions for 1SOS. Even should Bal timore win both their games they can only attain a percentage of 700 points. Should Brooklyn win from Boston Saturday the lat ter would still have a percentage of 701. The excitement at today's game was ex traordinary. In the second Inning , whci > the Bostons scored five runs , which gave them a safe lead , men and women nllko arose In the scats and jelled frantically. When the lead became so great that there was no moro hope for the home team the most faithful joined the IJostuns anil their rooters and for a tlmo nobody could hear anything else but people yelling "Boston. " Young Dunn was put In the box to fool the new champions , but Captain Orlniu might as well have stood up a wooden man. Th6 beancatcrs had their batting clothes oi > and the faster Dunn tossed them across the plato the harder Captain Duffy's men could line the leather out. The only trouble was that the batting was all one-sided. The homo team could do but Ilttlo with Klobe- danz the Boston twlrlcr. About the only time they hit him with any effect was In the third Inning. The fielding , like the batting , too , was onesided Brooklyn made only four actual errors , but some of the plajers were guilty of some of the nioit stupid plays seen lu manv days. Boston's woilc In the field was simply marvelous. Nothlnc seemed too hard for them to get. Lowe and Locs alone cut off four hits by their brilliant ilpjdlng.

WASHINGTON , fl ; BALTIMORE , 3. BALTIMORE , Sept. 30. The "ghost of a chanco" thnt Baltimore had to win the pen nant for next Reason no longer exists. It vanished early In today's game , when the Senators fell upon Dr. Pond's curves , batted him out of the box and took a good lead In the fourth Inning , after which the Orioles seemed to lose heart and played listlessly and without ambition. lu the meantime the score board was showing how easily the Bos- tonlans were taking their game away from the Brookl > ns , and the last vestige of hope slowly died out in the breasts of the hand ful of rooters who still clung to tbo belief that Brooklyn might toke ono from the lead ers anil glv-o the "birds" a chance to catch up by winning all four games from the Sen ators. Those who- have studied the game closely , however , had no such hope , as It was apparent to them that the Washington men had been playing in .hotter form than have those from Brooklyn In recent games , and then it was known that the Washington management was very anxious to win at least ono from 'Baltimore ' and would not bo displeased to have the pennant go to Boston. To them therefore , the result of today'a game was not unexpected , and It Is not sayIng - Ing too much to oEsert that the result Is not altogether unwelcome in Baltimore , for the reason that It Is generally admitted that Boston was proved to have the better club In the recent remarkable series played In Baltimore , and all lovers of the game , no matter what tholr prejudices may bo , are content to sco the trophy of tlio champion ship fall to the lot of the best team. The outcome of both games was watched , how ever , with great Interest , and wherever crowdb gathered bulletins were read to them. In almost every Instance the news that Boston had clinched It and that the cham pionship was no longer In doubt w.an re ceived with satisfaction , and In some cases with cheen. This \vas notably the case at Plmllco , where the result by innings was luad fiom tbo announcer's box during" the trotting races In progress there. A post poned game will bo played tomorrow , and with Saturday'n contest the season at Bal timore will end. On Sunday the Orioles will depart for Boston with the hope that they may save the "Templo cup. " The story of today's game Is llko the story ot a stern chase at sea. Washington started the ruu getting In the very Drat Inning , Selbach getting a pass to first and going to second on Gettman's single. Demont bunted , It went up In the air and Pond might have worked a double play If ho had held It , but It slipped through bis fingers and the bases were full. McGutro fouled out to Boyle , but Tucker banged ono Into left , sending Sel bach and Gettrnau across the plate with two runs. Baltimore then got one run on McGraw's bounder , which Jumped away from Demont , Gettman'a Juggle of Jennings' single allow ing htm to go to third and Kelly's long fly out to Brown brought him in. In the third Demont singled and stole second , going to third on Robinson's poor throw. Tucker's long fly to Stenzel brought In the run , aided by "Jake's" poor throw to head Demont off. Brown also reached third lu this Inning , but ivua nipped , at tly > plate. Wrlgley opened the fourth with a threo- bagger , Mercer duplicated the hit , scoring Wrlgley. Selbach got his base on balls , but was forced by Gettman at second , Mercer scoring on the play , ID the uext Inning a base on balls , a single , a. double and several picturesque errors by the home players netted the visitors four runs , and it was all over but the shouting. After that It nag a procession with the "three time winners" bringing up the rear , although a base on balls , a two-bagger and a. siugle cave tbe losers two ruus la tw ! jdxth Both i l'jrp went out In one , two ( hrco order /ftrHtliat , Score : \ BALTIMOTIRAPI1INOTON \ II II O A n It It O A I- Mcl > nvv ,1b 1 .1 1 2 0 q-IMeh , If J 0 t 0 0 Ke l K rf . acttmnn. rf 1 S 1 0 t JenntnjJv M 1 JifiiS 1 D mont , tb. 1 3 4 2 0 Kellcy V. l o 1 1 0 MtOulip. c. 0 1 3 1 0 Strntel , ih.

Both pitchers lecelvcd brilliant support at times , the fielding of j Merles and Ilogrlevur being features of the | game. McCarthy led In batting , making four safe hits out of as many times at Uio bat , ono of them for three b soa. In the i ninth Inning , with the score tied , Gray hit [ for two bases'after1 ' onu man was out.

There was sensational racing In nearly all of the twenty- two heats of the races today and some of the finishes were spectacular. In the second heat of the free-for-all pace Bessie Bonohlll paced the last half In one minute or better. ( She broke on the first turn nnd at the half i was fifth back of Lorraine , the favorite who i made the first half In 1 01. Besblo and Lottie came under the wire so close that the Judges | called It a dead heat. Lottlo's official time for the last half was 1 04 % nnd a number of timers caught iBesslo In a minute or leas. The 2 05i for Lottie Lorraine lowcied the record for pacing mares three-quarters of a second. She and two others had held the old record. It * tin lli-nlN McAiiHITr. SCRANTON , Pa. , Sept. 30.

There was but ono ono witness on the stand In the Luctgcrt \ trial today and nt the conclusion of the seaj j sion the state announced that It would In all probability Keep him on the stand for the greater portion of the lime tomorrow. The witness was Dr. W. It. Allport , the ex pert who ( ratified for the defense jcsterday that the femur claimed by the stile ns the femur of a woman Is In reality the femur of a hog. The state prepared a warm cross- examination for him today nnd toward the latter portion of the afternoon session It suc ceeded In confusing him nnd gaining from him several contradictions of his own evi dence. Ho Identified the skull of a dog as being the skull of a monkey , and was neatly trapped by the etato Into doing so. The attornejs for the state have considerable reeling against Dr. Allport , as his testimony more than once haa been to the effect that the evidence has been manufactured by the prosecution , and they will leave nothing utiilonu to breik him down. When Dr. Allport went on the stand again today ho created another sensation by do- daring that thu temporal bone which Prof. Doucy Identified ns human and from IU formation piobably the right temporal bono of a female Is not human. Dr. Allport em phatically remarked that there wcro no In- dlcatlons upon which to base the conclusion that the bono was from the skull of a human being. Ho believed It camu from the skull of Borne lower animal. Ho also declared that the phalanges In evidence belonged to the lower animal kingdom. Dr. Allport did not know what was In store for him In the cross-examination. Prof. Doi- sey had piepared for the piosccutton a list of questions that stlired the Northwestern university professor when they were pro pounded by A-wlstint State Attorney Mc- Ewan. The questions wcio bristling with technicalities and wcro framed with a view of testing Dr. Allport'a knowledge of oste ology. Dr. Allpott had prepaied for the defense the cross-examination of Prof. Dor- sey and the latter evened matters with a \engeanco today. NOT HUMAN BONES AT ALL. Dr. Allport when on the witness stand was examining the temporal bono v\hlch had been identified by Prof. Dorscy and pronounced - | nouncod by the latirr not only a temporal bono , but the temporal bone ot a woman. "That bono is not n temporal bono cither of a human or of the lower older of ani mals. " declared Dr. Allport gazing at thu oxnlblt Intently. "It Ls i composition of bones put together by i > itlliclal means. The trace hero which Piof Dorsey slid was the outline of a facial uervo Is a fiber of animal matter with which the bones nro stuck together. " The statement was received with some thing akin to dismay by the prosecution for a moment. Luetgurt leaned back In his chair and laughed Assistant State's At- torney McEwan began a hot cross-examina tion of the witness. Dr. Allport underwent one of the severest crosa examinations that any witness has been subjected to since the trial began. Assistant State's Attoiney McEwen did the cro s- quc-3tlonlng and when eourt ha idjourncd for the day the assistant EtaT fcjiqyioy announced that he was not throuT , . with" thi\ witness and would recall him tomorrow morning Privately Assistant State's Attor ney McEwcn said that ho would probably keep Dr. Allport on the witness stand the greater part of tomorrow. This expert osteoloqist was the only witness of the day. The senwtlonal statement of Dr. Allport at the morning session of court to the effect that the temporal bone identified by Prof. Dorsoy as being the right temporal of a female was in reality not a temporal bone at all , aroused the prosecution. The expert's conclusion that the exhibit was several bones glued together in the form of a temporal bono suggested fraud and an attempt to manufacture evidence which the prosecution docs not relish. HOT CKOSS-EXAMINATION. The result was that Assistant State's Attor ney McEwen went at Dr. Allport with u Him determination to learn if the witness really knew what he was talking about. Questions were fired at thi expeit regarding temporal bones , Ecsamolds , the phalanx In evidence , and other matters with such rapidity that he became bewildered. Confusion led to con tradiction nnd this developed sharper cro h- questlonlng , so that the last two hours of the expert on the witness stand were fraught with neive-testlng anxiety for him. Prof. Darsoy , whose evidence Dr. Allport flatly contradicted , 1'stened ' attentively to the cross-examination of the chief expert for the defense. HP heard his own story and those of Prof. Bailey and Dr. Plcrco punctuicd by Dr. Allport with a smile of scorn hovering about his lips. Liter on Prof Dorsey will go on the witness stand to substantiate his original testimony If he can. Assistant State's 'Attorney ' McEwen nealty caught Dr. Allport napplr.f , dm Ing the after noon session. The expert was requested to name a portion of bone handed him. After a brl"f examination the expert said It was part of the skull of a monkey. Assistant State's Attorney McEwen Immediately asked another question , which led Dr. Allport to bellovo bo had Identified the exhibit at thu first guess and the expert confidently entered upon a long dlFscrlrtlon relative to the sim ilarity of the skull In some portions to that of a humin skull.
