taxed far beyond Its capacity nnd hundreds

the orchestra mils to thu gnllery, every

'There Is no uiiestlnn about Mm
of this campaign. At no time since th
conventions were held have I entertained
nny doubt about New York, although tho
democrats claim through Mr. Croker ol
Tnmmany that they will carry It. The rondl-
wons now seem to indicate n ureal vic
tory In all the eastern stntes. Imlhmn u
of course, always a doubtful slate, but con
ditions seem to have channel there re

most certain that we will carry It by a
larger majority than hefor-. I have con

Senator Allison wns creeled with n ner.
feet storm of .ipplnuso and II was several
minutes before tho eheurlne snlmliled nml
ho was nblo to commence his fpcech. In
his speech, which wus a masterly discussion
of tho Issues before the people today, he
uenit wltn the money and P hlllnnlnn ones-
tions, dwelling especially on the propo
sitions concerning the future disposition of
uic riuiippiuts contained in the Kansas
City platform of the democratic party and
in .Mr. tiryan t speech o: acceptance at

of his election, would llnd moro support In
congress for repeal of the currency legisla
tion enacted last session than for his Phil
ippine program. In concluding his address
Senntor Allison urged upon nil republicans
to sink their petonal feelings and to cen
ter their efforts In electing Ihelr congress
men, as tho prosperity nt the country
wholly depended on the republicans retain
ing contiol of the national legislature. He
laid special stress on tht Importance of
this.

debased and fluctuating standard of money.
President McKlnley called congress hi ex

following naturally from these publL
policies, we llnd ourselves now with a
larger per capita money circulation than
we hnve ever had before, which has been
Increased nearly IS per capita during the
last three years.
Almiirdlty of "linprrlnllsiii,"
Speaking of thj nbsttrdlty of tha demo
cratic cry of "Imperialism" he said;
How Is it possible that anything that has
grown out of tho Spnnlsh wnr or that Is
growing out of It or that Is In the future
to grow out of It can In the .lightest de
gree Invnlvn the existence of the republic
or ill" destruction of our fres Institutions';
Nothing material hns thus far been done
that hns not received the sanctl n of Hie
legislative nnd exemtlve brnrieh.es of the
covrunMtt. NeUils; haa bttu done and
nothing can he done t:i violation of the
conttltutlon of the I'nlted State by con
gress or the president that Is not subject
to review by the supreme court of the
I'nlted States
Their whole ehurue ai?ulnst the ndtnlnls-
trillion for Its conduct In tho Philippines
Is based upon these false assumptions nnd
positive untruths. The administration has
not embroiled the republic In an unnects
sary war. It has not placed us lit the
un-American position or crushing with
military force tho efforts of our former
ninet to achieve utterly and self-government.
We have not waged n war of crim
inal aggression ngallist the flllplnos. The
president of the 1'nlted States has usej
the power given him by congress and en
joined upon him by the constitution to
suppress a rebellion against Its uuthorlty
and this war has been conducted with the
full knowledge of nnd the full sanction of
congress, not the sanction only of u re
publican majority, but the sanction of
practically all tinlltleal parties In congr"Ss.
This declaration ns respects the conduct
or the I'nlteil Stntes ill the Philippines Is
a politic il declaration having Ihe purpose
t overthrow the wise, prudent and con
servative admlnl"trHtl'n iif the republican
partv through President McKlnlev nnd to
set ure with the election of Mr. Hryan a
detnocratle majority In the two houses for
the primary purpose of carrying out cer
tain political ideas respecting our standard
of money and respecting our curroncy that
were condemned by the election four years
ago. nml which, If adopted, would have
brought disaster to thu country and If
adopted now will have a mill moro dls
ustrous effect.
Regarding the Issuo of "militarism" he
said :
Mv own belief Is that our present army
of hJ.Ooo men will be tm largo till army as
will be authorized by congress. Certainly
It will not be enlarged beyond one nitin for
each l,''Ki of our population, or to tho point
of 75.X) men. lnctudlntr the necessary
artillery regiments to man our fortifica
tions, nml it Is Idle to talk of such an army
becoming a menace tn our free Institutions.

W. H. M. Pnsey of the banking firm of
Officer & Pusey was taken last evening to
Clarlnda to be placed In the state asylum,
his condition having become such that his
family nnd friends decided he needed to bo
put under restraint.
The commitment to Clnrlndu was made on
nn Information filed before the Insanity
board by Dr Donald Macrae, tho family
physlrinn. who has been attending Mr.
Pusey. It wns first suggested to place Mr.
Pusey In St. llernard's hospital, but he re
fused to be taken there, and nftor a con
sultation held yesterday morning, It was
deemed best to take him to Clarlnda for
trcatmeut.
A few days after the death of Thomas
Officer, Mr. Puscy'B partner, and about tho
time the bank was placed In the hands of
n receiver. Mr. Pusey commenced to show
visible signs of breaking down mentally
and It at once becamo apparent that he
was not In a condition to transact business
of any nature, much less undertake the
liquidation of thu linn's banking business.
In compnny with his son, frank S. Pusey,
he took a trip to Chicago, where It was
hoped that a change of scene might benefit.
He was placed In the cnte of specialists
there, but tailed to lmprovr and It was
decided to bring him home again. Since his
return his trouble lns dally become more
pronounced and at times .hf was subjected
to spells of n violent nnture. dining which
It was found dllllcult to restrain hlni. Ills
symptoms became so threatening yesterday
morning that on the advice of Dr. Macrae,
the family physician, It was decided to take
him to Clnrlnda. IIo was accompanied
thern by his grandson, Frank Plnney, and
Deputy Sheriffs Cunning nnd linker.
Mr. Pusey has been In the banking busi
ness in this city since 1850 and tho sym
pathy of the entire community Is with him
and his family
It was stated yesterday that the receiv
ers wcro now working on their report,
which they expected to submit to the court
before the end of the week. Charles Offlcer
Is also expected to (lie the Inventory of tho
cstato of his father, the lato Thomas Officer,
before the end of the week. Tho lato
Thomas Officer held a number of pieces of
real estate in this state, Nebraska and
Colorado, which he really held in trust for
tho firm of Otrircr & Pusey nnd which were
In fact the property nf the bank. Charles
Officer as administrator nf his father's es
tate, with the consent of tho other heirs
secured an order from Judge Macy authoriz
ing him to deed over to the receivers these
parcels of realty In order that they might
be Included In the nssets of the bank.
Claims to the amount ot nbout $40,000
were filed yesterday with the clerk of the
district court ngalnst tho bank, making the
claims now listed aggregate about $.1!i0.
000. The largest claim filed yenterdny was
that of fred Mlllera, farmer of this county,
for J13.S0O.
Tho following additional claims were filed
yesterday against t lie estato of thu late
Thomas Officer: J. J. Stewart, trustee,
52.13 and 1.000; II. Ouren, $4,fl67.r.i; 1 W.
Ouren. Jfi23.n;i.
Tho power of attorney from W. H. M.
Pusey to his son, frank Pusey, was with
drawn before It wns placed on record.
Mr. Pusey's condition In nny rase would
lmvo Invalidated tho power of attorney and
now n guardian will have to be appointed to
look after his Interests.
.Musical Instruments Were .stolen.
It developed yesterday morning that tho
musical Instruments which O. II. Hill tried
to dispose of to a Hroadwny pawnbroker
Tuesday night, had been Stolen from tho
store of tho Swanenn Music company In
the Masonic temple nt Hroadwny and fourth
street.
Tho store was entered through a rear
door, wiilch hnd been pried open with an
Iron bar. Tho police nre Inclined to bo
Uevo that Hill had on accomplice, ns ho
was seen earlier In the evening In com
pany with an older mnn. The Instruments
must havo been olfered fn sale within a
few minutes after the burglary had been
committed. Hill refused to glvo the pollco

that he ramo hero from Chicago. His pre

Chairman Wtavcr returned from Chicago

with the national committee on matters
pertaining to the campaign. Chairman
Weaver soys the committee has no doubt
whatever that the republicans will organ
ize tho next house. As to general results
members of the committee feel that the
contest Is nil over except the shouting.
The stories of anxiety on the part of tho
committee nre. without foundation In fact.
Members are more than confident of n
sweeping republican victory. Tho com
mittee Informed Chairman Weaver that
Iowa was so certain to cust an overwhelm
ing republican vote that tho committee
had decided to let tho state take care of
Itself. In other words speakers would be
sent here only when they could be con
veniently spared from other stntes. And
as to funds, well, the committee had none

Work of the lCipcrt l'.lilllo eil by tlir
tiiivrriiinriit. j
In the corner of a room on the third floor I
of the United States appraiser's office, cor-
ner of Harrison und Sherman streets, re- j
ports tho Chicago Chronicle, there sits dur- j
lng oftico hours every working doy the
patriarch among Uncle Sam's tea examiners
This ts Joseph L. Langley, who, although
one of the oldest government employes lu
point of age. Is one of the most efficient and
vigorous. Mr. Langley' specialty Is the
testing of ten samples, to see that tho
statute which prohibits tho Importation of
teaB below a certain grade Is compiled with
by the Importers whose entries are made at
Chicago and other western points.
It might seem monotonous to some. There
he sits, day In and day out, year lu und
year out. with a circular revolving table in
front of him. Around the edge of this table
aro ranged u score or more of teacups. He-
hind each cup Is a small box or package of
tea with tho Importer's label and the name
of the brand on tt. An usslNtniit nt nn ad- .
Joining tnblo Is busy sorting out other sam
ples, of which there are hundreds awaiting
tho attention of the busy examiner Mr.
Langley breaks open tho packages and puts ;
a small handful, probably a iiiblesponnful
In each cup, Another assistant pours boiling '
wnter into tho cups and the importers arc
at tho mercy of the United Slates govern
incnt.
Mr. Langley gives the table n slight turn
A tier of cups Is lu front of him, sufficiently
steeped. Directly In front of him Is an
other cup with an Infusion of "standard
tea. This Is tho government's basis of nc
ceptnnco ot rejection of the samples, Each
cup must contain a tea liquor equal In all
respect, lo that of tho "standard' cup or It
will not pnss muster. As a mutter of course i
whero hundreds of different samples are ex
ami lied every day many of the Infuotons are
superior to the government's htandard Oc-
caslonally thero Is one that falls lo come up
lo the requirements nnd It Is rejec ed. The
penalty for the latter Is the conllscitlon of
tho wholo Importation by the goveriitiinni I
and either Its destruction hv (rni-pf-imiont .if I
flclnls or deportation from the United Slates
Mr. Langley Is a most picturesque figure
as he passes Judgment on the constant pro
cession of tea cutis. Ills venerable bearded
face leans over the table and his eyes suan
the exhibit like a hawk.
"No dead leaves there."
"Ah. too much scum on that one."
"This one Is u better color, you see, than
tho standard. It Is a hlgh-prlced ten."
"This one Is only fair, but It passns."
And so tjie test goes on. Another whirl
Is given tho table and a Her of cups con
taining an infusion of tea dust Is beforo thu
examiner- Here thoro is n "standard" cup
nlso. The government allows tho linporta
Hon of tea dust, properly labeled and In
voiced as such, provided It reaches a cer
tain standard. When the various tola i..
completed the samples nre closed again and
mo following stamp ainxeil:
"Tea found hy the examiner not to come
within tho prohibition of the act nf March

Yotitsey. on trial for complicity In the
(loehel assassination, did not appear in
court when It convened this morning. The
Jailer stated to the court that Yotitsey was
not able to bo brought Into the court room.
Colonel Crawford then stated that a
physician had lech called to sen Yotitsey
last night and found the defendant violent
nnd It was necessnry to administer opiates,
under the Influence of which he slept, but
this morning he was In n stupor, with
overy Indlcntlon of having been in convul
sions during tho night.
Attorney franklin, for th common
wealth, had no objection to pnsslng the
ense, but said the court should nppntnt
physicians lo exnnilno and report on Yout
sey's condition. It was thereupon ordeted
that the enso bo passed until tomorrow
morning.
Yotitsey has remained in a comatose 'on
ditlon nil day. Whether that la due to the
opiates administered to quiet him l.ist
night cannot be ascertained. He las
nnswered no qttestlont nddrcssed to him
by his nearest relatives nnd physicians,
but once or twice during the day he neld
up his hands and exclaimed:
"There Is no blood on tny hands there
Is no man's blood on my hands."

He has kept his eyes closed all day and
they are still slightly crossed, ns If drawn
and Bet by tho convulsion he had Ust
night. Tim only nourishment he has taken
wns n glnss of milk, which wns almost
forced dowt, his throat by the physicians.
Dr. Carrlek says he Is In uti extremely
critical condition, which may take a :md
den change for the better or worse nt any
moment, nnd If for the worse Yiitt,cy will
be permanently Insane. He has lot been
taken to the Jury room In the courthoine.
as directed by Judge Cantrill this mornlmr.
but may be taken thero early tomorrow If
there Is nn ehnngc for tho worse in hts
condition tonight. Judge Cantrill nld this
morning that the trial would rortalnly i ro-cr-ed.
but If Youtsey Is nbsolutely tn.con
selous tomorrow tho Judge may abandon
his purpose.
Youtsey's attorneys think he simply had
hysterics last night, brought on by .he
severe strain nnd long confinement r.nd
that he wllf recover In ti day or two. It Is
a strange case and while nothing Msa has
been talked of todny no two persons seem
