THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : SATURDAY , OCTOBER 8 , 1808. READY TO WRECK THE STATE Popocrats Driven to Desperation by Their Political Misfortunes , HOPE TO CREATE A FINANCIAL PANIC Hemly to Launch n Letter In Which the Credit of the HnnU * Will He Attneked In Hope of Can MM ir n Hun. LINCOLN. Neb. , Oct. 7. ( Special. ) The fusion campaign committees and the can didates of the so-called "reform forces" have decided that some desperate measures must be taken to win In the present cam paign and have arranged a scheme whereby they hope to cause a financial panic In this late. There la In the employ of the fu- nlonlsts at a salary of $10 per week an Individual who signs bin namn to and fathers alt the articles prepared by the politicians to be printed In the country papers of the state. Any visionary scheme or lurid story that any candidate for a state office desires to wrlto Is exploited qvcr the signature of the hired man. A letter has Just been prepared for publica tion In the country papers showing up the bad condition of tbo banks In the state , and showing that a financial panic Is just about to burst that will sweep a majority of the banks off their feet. This calamity letter pretends to believe that the banks of the state have available less than 10 per cent of the funds that have been deposited with them and that a demand for payment would break them all. The manifest Intention of the letter Is to create alarm among the ncople of the state , cause panics and runs on banks and so paralyze business and local Industry that the fusion crowd could get safely Into office before the recovery. Hank Statement * Ilefnte It. U seems hardly necessary to refute this villainous statement , the conditions In ths state and the plenitude of money In every locality being the best proof of the utter falsity of the story. T'IC ' last statement Issued by the secretary of the State BankIng - Ing board , and whith Included all the na tional and Incorporated banks In the state , makes n better snowing that any state ment over before tscued In the state. Scc- letary Hall In summing up t'ho condition of the banks ns shown ny the report , certifies that the state banks have 5.1 per cent of their legal reserve available In cash und that the national backs have over II per cent , while there Is more In the actual caBh Item than ever before was shown In the history of : ho stato. It la well known that In evorv county the inl.s , Instead of being hard up for money , nro ai-tiinlly oev- loaded with It n-i-I the scarcity of oppor tunities to place Itvhero it will yield nn Income tas led mnm' of the Institutions to refuse to pay a single cent for deposits r nnd In many cases to absolutely refuse to receive depoplts. YetJ la the foci1 of the 3 favorable , conditions the calamity crowd hopes to s'art a panic nt about the time that President McKlnley Is In the plate , as proof to the people flint the crime of ' 73 Is still marching on and that there can bo no salvation except tniough the medium of the "reform forces" of this state. This assault oi 'ho banks will no doubt be a disagreeable surprMe to Secrotnry Kail , who has no sympathy with the calarmty * ho- orles and has often expressed his gratifica tion at the splendid statements made by the banking Institutions of the state nnd has given It as his opinion that a number of the banks would hnvo to go out of busi ness or consolidate with the others ! > < 3- cause of the plethora of money and the leek of places to 'put It. It I n me the "NVnr Department. It Is understood that the state officials flcblro to shift the responsibility upon the Wnr department of the favoritism shown the Bryan regiment In the matter of trnns- portatlou and that a reply to the article published in The Bee this morning Is being prepared. They will not deny , however , that the War department requested the governor to furnish tbo 660 recruits for the First and Second regiments ; that no transporta tion was furnished these recruits ; that trans portation was furnished the recruits to the Third regiment and that the state will have to pay the bills. These items that cannot bo denied seem to cover the whole question. The North Nebraska Construction and De veloping company , with a capital of $50,000. filed articles of Incorporation today. The following are stockholders : C. II. Brown , O. G. Wales and 0. A. Perry. The same men and a few others from Holt county yesterday Incorporated the Northern Ne braska Railroad company , which has a cap ital of $360,000 , and proposes to construct 'a line from Atkinson to Perry , the latter being a new town on the border of Boyd county. The Western Mutual Home Purchasing company of Omaha , showing a capital stock of $50,000 , also filed articles today. A requisition baa been made for the re turn of A. M. Dell , alias 0. M. Carroll , who. Is under arrest at Kansas City and Is wanted at Omaha to answer the charge of larceny as bailee. H eccms that ho got away with a piano owned by Arthur C.

Johnson , private In Company Some people in the world persist In clinging to old methods. There arc men who still use a forked stick in place of a modem plow. There arc also men , who. when they are troubled with n disordered stomach or liver , resort to the old-fashioned violent remedies that rack and rend the whole body , and while they give temporary relief , in the lone run do the entire system a great amount of harm. Modern science has discovered remedies infinitely superior to these old-fashioned drugs , that do their work by promoting the natural processes of excretion and secre tion and gently correctiiitr all circulatory disturbances. When a man feels generally out of sorts , when he loses sleep at night , when he eels up headache ? and with a bad taste in his mouth in the morning , when he feeH dull and lethargic all day , when his appetite is poor and his food distresses him , when work comes hard und recreation Is an impossibility , that man , though he may not believe it , is a pretty sick man. He is on the road to consumption , nervous prostration , malaria , or some serious blood disease. In cases of this description a man should resort at once to Dr. I'ierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It i the best medicine for a weak stomach , impaired digestion and disordered liver. U is the great blood- maker and purifier , flesh-builder and nerve tonic. It cures 98 per cent , of all cases of consumption , bronchitis , Hnjrerini ? coughs and kindred ailments. Thousands have testified to its marvelous merits. It is a modern , scientific medicine that aids without goading nature , and that has stood the test for thirty years. Medicine dealers sell it. , , Dr. Plercc's Pellets cure constipation.

( Special. ) Reports coming from Custcr county Indicate that the troubles of Senator C.V. . Deal are only just beginning. Two of the populist papers and a large number of the populist voters arc opposing him , and In the struggle a. Kreat many hard questions arc being asked that the senator docs not desire to answer. Ono of them Is , how could he earn $1,500 In a > ear as a member of the "sniffling com mittee" and at the same time study tha preparatory course so as to enter the Uni versity law school. His employment of his Ron during the session of the legislature and his grandstand plays on a number of hold-UD railroad bills also furnish rlpo themes for discussion. Representative Webb , who was defeated for rcuomlnatlon In Custcr county by the Deal clique , Is the publisher of the Callaway Independent and In a recent Issue of his paper said : What In the name of common sense ha the election or defeat of Mr. Deal to do with "fastening the gold standard upon the country ? " What has it to do with regulat ing the priceof wheat and corn ? Such transparent rot ! The "open talk among populists" means that populists In Ouster county have decreed that ring rule must cease , that the principles of our platform shall bo respected ; that the practices of andldates shrill not belle the pledges of our party ; that bosslsm and factionalism nd rallroidlsm and traltorlsm shall no ongcr defeat the will of the voters ; that 'cleanliness Is next to godliness , " and thnt populism shall now and henceforth be dl- orced from unclean things. It means the ctlrcmcnt of B. & M. Influences from populist politics ; a return of the spirit of inltcd brotherhood which inspired the party n the early ' 90s. "These populists" have 10 notion of "fastening the gold standard ipoti the country , " but they realize that uturo populist victories In Custer county vill very largely depend upon the "scrap- ng off" of soire of the barnacles which lave fastened themselves upon our good > arty ship. But now worse than this follows. Ed- mlsten , the erstwhile chairman of the popu- Ist committee and now manager of the Allen campaign , had a man In Custer whom 10 wanted nominated In the place of Ueal. falling to make headway In the convention the Kdmlstcn faction Is busy stirring up the Ight against Heal in the hopes that he will resign. A few days ago Edmlston went up to Custer , sent for Heal and asked him to get off the ticket In the Interests of "har mony. " The candidate for senator re- 'used ' to bo pulled down and It Is now said .hat Ednilsten Is mad enough to assist In ils defeat at the polls , It is now a pretty sure thing that Deal will be repudiated by the people of Custer county , but It Is Just as sure that any man substituted for him on the ticket would meet with a like fate , as Custer county populists have discovered .hat It Is all a thirst for olDcc that rules their leaders and that the election or defeat of any local candidate will have no effect on the financial or other national questions.

TRADE IN EAST AND WEST Eastern Wool Held for Hieher Prices Helps to Retard Natural Declines , COTTON AT LOWEST QUOTATIONS KNOWN L'niintiallr ' Henry Domnnil for Iron 1'rodnct * Continue * Inrner Ie- mnnil for Staple rioodn Crop Situation. NEW YOIIK , Oct. 7. n. G. Dun & Co. . In their Weekly Review of Trade , will say : H can do no good to disguise the fact that the large eastern advances on wool to be held for higher prices have helped to re tard the natural declines In that product , of which 100 quotatloca on Coates Bros , of Philadelphia average 18.71 cents , against 20.83 _ February 1 , while extraordinarily small sale ? , only 2,614,300 pounds for the week at the three chief markets , against 14,337,000 last year , 7,663,800 In 1896 and 7,099,600 In 1892 , Indicate very little demand at this time for manufacture. The truth Is that demand for goods Is not helped by high prices for wool. The cotton Industry shows better condi tioner , In upltc of the fall of cotton to the lowest quotation ever known , and there Is larger demand for most staple poods. The Iron Industry still galnn so rapidly that an unhealthy boom would seem to be In progress but for the peculiar conditions In splto of the combination cf valley pro ducers , who now propose a selling combi nation at Plttshurg , the sales run below' fixed figures , $8.40 being quoted at Plttsburg and $9.50 for grey forge , while southern and local Ircn Is steady at Chicago and an thracite Is not stronger nt Philadelphia. But the comsumlns demand Is remarkably heavy and large contracts this week cover 3,000 tons structural Iron at Chicago , 8,000 tons for Boston , 2,000 for ship plates at Cleveland and heavy demand for bars , the Pennsylvania railroad requiring 2,500 cars and the Northwestern 2,000. Wheat has been declining a little , with foreign reports wmewhat favorable as to European crops , and yet the actual ship ments have been 3,586,917 bushels , flour In cluded , for the week , against 4,46154 ! i bushels for the corresponding week last year. ; All reports still Indicate that farmers are 1 quite generally holding back their crop In I the hope of higher prices and collections j at the west are almost everywhere retarded on that account and yet the wesrtorn re- I celpts amount to 10,539,3. > fl bushels , against 8,810,720 for the same week last year. Nor Is the corn crop any obstruction , for , while 2S51OfiO bushels werp exported during the week , against 1 855,067 last year , the move ment does not Indicate large supplies In the Interior. But nobody can tell re yet how- much grain Europe will require during the coming year. Failures for the week have been 169 In the United States , agalnrt 212 last year , nnd 23 In Canp.da , against 29 last year. IIBVIKW OK TIIK STOCK MAKICKT , Siifcnr mill ToJineco Stoeltn Have Oe- etiple.J Chief Attention Thin Week. NEW YORK , Oct. 7. nradstreet's Finan cial Review tomorrow will say : It has been an Irregular market'with re stricted professional trading. Most of the developments , Including the current reports of railroad earnings , have been favorable , but the breaks In the Industrial stock list under the lead of Tobacco last week end of Sugar stock this week have apparently eliminated public Interest for the time be ing. London has shown a disposition to pur chase the Pacific stocks , but tin transactions here have had little effect. The increasing ease of th ? money market seems to bt- re sponsible for the renewed acthtty , but neither this nor the continuance of gold imncrts seems to revive the nagging spirit ' of peculation. The chief Incident has been the weakness of American Sugar stock on the cutting of prices for the rcflnedi article. The railroads have been neglected , ? \CJ ! ( touheavlnc-ss , bul some specialties have boon actively manipu lated and advanced. . Tobaccd has cepscd to be a lender of the market ; the revelation about the disagree ments nnd liquidation of thu pool In the stock has quieted the street's apprehensions about the Industrials as a class. Sugar , how ever , took Tobacco's place In the market. Prlcci for refined have been generally re duced both by the American company anfl the opposition refineries , until , on Thursday It was understood that granulated rugar was sold at about 4 i cents n pound , which , It Is believed , removes all profit from the refining business. From 118 % at the be ginning of the week the price of Sugar stock fell to 112VJ. its course being marked with great Irregularity and frequent rallies on the short Interest. The latter incidents were assisted by the apparent scarcity of stock and the prevalence of a premium for borrowing It of one-sixteenth to one-quarter cf 1 per cent. The other Industrials were but llttlo affected by the course of Sugar. People's Gas was very strong , rising from 101 to 103' on Inside support and Intimations that the arrangements settling the natural gas dispute and involving the purchase of nn auxiliary company , which supplies the company with oil , are decidedly beneficial , although an Issue of $3,000,000 of new stock Is said to bo a part of the arrangement. On the outside market the new Federal Steel company stocks have been the object of con siderable dealings at well sustained prices , the common prlco being about 285J29. The railroad share list has been neglected. The Grangers , with the exception of Rock Island , which hps had support on Ha favor able August ftatcmeiit , were dull. Atchison preferred was something of a feature , rising I to 31 on rumors that dividends will commence - menco in January. Northern Pacific com mon , on the other hand , has been Irregular , ' in splto of foreign support. After selling up to 42 , It encountered liquidating sales on dis couraging rumors about the probability of a dividend in the common and mysterious in timations regarding alleged disagreements between loading Interests In the manage ment. Yellow fovcr rumors wcro responsible for heaviness In Louisville k Nashville , though the annual report Ph-iv.n the equiv alent of 3 per cent on the stock tor the I year. Railroad bonds have beer active and 1 strong , the Atchison treucs being particular features. DOMINION OF CANADA. Cnrnlvnl I'orlixl \Vcnlcrn Cltlcn Slioirs n Grcnt Volume of Trnilc. NEW YORK , Oct. 7. Dradstrect's tomor row will say : With the exception of some parts of the south , whore heavy ktorms and yellow fovcr with resulting quarantines checl. distribu tion , a very large business appears to he do- 'nc ' though complaints of narrow margin rf i > oflt are well nlqh unanimous. While the bank clearings of September point to a slightly smaller buslnew done the coun try over than ono year ago this week's , flgur&.i point to a fair gain over Innt year , and , therefore , over all previous record ? j for this week of the rear. The volume of distribution , as a whole. Is well up to or above that reported a year ago In most sec tions and , therefore , far In advance of some preceding annual periods. As for porno time past most activity Is pcicrptlble In the woat and northwest and on the Pacific coast , especially at Puget Sound and Columbia river points. It has been a carnival and fall celebration period at a number of west ern cities this week and a resulting large distribution , both retail and wholesale , IB reported. At leading eastern markets recently favor able reports are fully maintained , with bus iness In textlley , particubrly cotton and woolen goods , least favorably situated. Signs are not wanting that the spread of yellov fever In some sections of the south , with resulting quarantines , has sharplv checked trade In the lower Mississippi valley , while heavy sterns on the South Atlantic cocst have opera cd to arrest distribution and re duced the rice crop. The general industrial situation is a very favorable ono. Marked activity continues to bo n feature of the situation , but the Immense rate of pro duction a present In the absence of Imme diate new demands has caufcd a shadlnc of some few grades of pig Iron and stefl billets. Movements In an upward direction , however , are reported frcrc the wo&t. The situation as to prices generally Is ono of sustained strength , wheat being promlnen1 I in this respect , while the most important Drex L , Shconan is always right on top when it comes to selling shoes and moro particularly boys' shoes you've never seen n shoo in your life for $1.50 that will ptlve you nml your boy the wear and satisfaction that our $1.50 boys' shoos will any where else * $1.75 or ? 2 would be tins prlco but we started out years ajio sell ing the shoe for $ l.r > 0 , and , although it Is better now than ever , the price Is going to bo the same our enormous sales of these shoes are a guarantee of their worth.
