LARGE CROWD FROM KANSAS
Five Thoaaand Delegates Arc Toaated
Oa Christian ( harrk
Convention.
Kanras, 6,000." Is the motto of the com
mittee appointed at Topeka Thursday by the
state convention of the Christian church to
arrange for an excursion of delegatea from
the church of that state to the national
oonventton at Omaha. This committee was
appointed after addresses made by Judge
W. W. Slabaugh and C. 8. Paine, who went
to Topeka to nil the place assigned to W.
T. Hilton, who la now In Colorado.
Judge Slabaugh and Mr. Paine returned to
Omaha yesterday and report the great
est enthuslaam on the part of the Kansas
members of the church on the subject of the
convention. Before they arrived tentative
arrangements had been made for the ex
cursion from the Sunflower state. They will
come from the southern and central parts
of the state over different roads to Kanaas
City, where, October 16, they will form the
official train which will arrive in Omaha
ihut evening over the Burlington. At the
head of the official party will be the officers
of the Kansas atate societies and It will

pects to send a larger crowd.
Colorado baa decided to make a unique

state, but will make an active bid tor lm
migration. The persons in charge of the
work in that atate have requested the local
committee to reserve them a large space

the leading ministers of the state and of
tho churchea for the purpose of showing th
missionary field which Is awaiting develop
nient. In addition to thla the railroads are

ui
pany In Illinois, I interested a number of
well known and reputable men in the
formation of a new concern and the Central
Loan and Trust Company of Illinois was
born.
Between us I had to do some ground and
lofty tumbling to get into position arter the
result of the Illinois state convention com
ing out for Representative Hopkins for
United States senator and, having cut the
ground from under me so lar as Washing
ton was concerned, there was nothing left
to do but to get back into a business with
which I waa perfectly familiar.
The success of the Central Loan and
Trust Company of Illinois has been really
remarkable. Within ten days of the an
nouncement of its organization $5,000,000
of stock was subscribed for and I guess
that'a the way I got the credit In the east
of being associated with a trust company
that bsd $4,000,000 on deposit within six
days of Its formation.
"As to politics In Illinois, while some
what chaotic Just at present, I have no
doubt but that conditlona will materially
brighten aa election day comes around. If
we elect a republican legislature Repre
sentative Hopkins, who has been endorsed
by the atate convention, will be elected
United Btates senator to succeed w. e.
Mason, In my judgment. Mason Is de
feated now, although he la crying 'Wolf,
wolf,' when we of the rank and file of the
party have not been able to decry that ani
may anywhere in eight."
Mr. Dawes incidentally said that with the
death of President McKlnley his Interest
in Washington bad largely cfased. He
confessed, however, that he wouH like to go
back to meet aome of the old friends formed
during bla connection with one of the most
Important branches of the Treasury de
partment, but, as the old negro said, "I'se
little hopes."
Mr. Dawea arrived in Omaha yesterday
morning from Chicago on bis way to Lin
coln, where he will spend a few days.

Project for Tannery ii Givei Up by the
Oommsrcial Club,
CITY DOES NOT TAKE KINDLY TO BONUS

at Cndahy Plant Maa-lc
City Coaalp.
The tannery project has gone up In the
air, at least as far as the South Omaha
Commercial club Is concerned. President
Freltag stated to a Bee reporter yesterday
afternoon that the members of the club
and the business men In general did not
take kindly to the project. "There was a
request by Mr. Elliott of Atlanta, Oa., for
the citizens of Bouth Omaha to take a cer
tain amount of stock In the proposed tan
nery. Mr. Elliott alleged that he and his
partner, Mr. Thaw, had control of a new
process for the tanning cf hides without
the use of bark. What these two promoters
wanted was to sell to South Omaha citizens
$25,000 In stock, preferred, and reserve the
balance of stock for themselves in order
to secure the controlling Interest. There
Is a balance of common stock to be issued
and sold, but the chancea are that It will
not be sold here."
By those who have looked into the mat
ter it is asserted that If the process for
tanning waa of any great worth there
would be no need of issuing stock or ask
ing a bonus of $25,000, aa has been de
manded. As far as the Commercial club is
concerned the project will be dropped.

Much Smoke, Little Fire.
The jailer at police headquarters at
tempted last night to start a tire in the
stove in the rear of the city jail In order
to increase the temperature, lio far no
steam has been turned on and city officials
have been wearing wraps of all kinds and
descriptions. By some hook or crook the
stove would not work, as the chimney was
out of order and so the police court, the
jail and the city offices were filled with
smoke. Finally Chief Brlggs decided that
the best thing to do was to put out the
fire snd report the condition of the chimney
to the sgents of the building.

NEBRASKA NOT IN MANEUVERS
Ho Arrngsmsnta at Fart Rilsy for Militia
msa from This Stats.
a ssssamsmasaaa
GENERAL COLBY IGNORES GENERAL BATES
Commander of Department of tha
Mlssonrl Sends' Commnnlentlon
to Head' of National Gaard,
bat Gets Na Response.
ft has leaked out at army headquarters
that In all probability the Nebraska Na
tional Ouard will not be represented in the
coming maneuver division at Fort Riley.
Despite the flattering plana to have two
full regiments, the First and Second, there
from this stats there is now hardly a hope
that so much aa a single guardsman will
attend.
After causing worry at army headquarters
for two weeks, this fear that Ne
braska will not participate has
finally been accepted as lerv near
a settled fact. Nebraska is no longer
counted on for troops. In all arrangements
for the camp, pending and competed, the
Nebraska state militia Is left out of the
reckoning. In camp location and division,
in rations and In foder no plana are made
for guardsmen from this state.
This has been the necessary result of an
utter Inability on the part of Major Oen
era! Bates to get any word from those in
charge of the Nebraska National Guard.
As long aa two weeks ago communication
were sent to Adjutant General Colby at
Lincoln regarding the participation of Ne
braska troops. Nothing has been heard
from him. '
Other State Are la.
Subsequent efforts to elicit a reply of
some nature have been equally fruitless.
Meanwhile Colorado and Kansas ofllclals
have completed their arrangements with
Major General Bates.
Within two weeks all state militia
troops are to be on tb scene. The si
lence at the state capital seems to mean
that Nebraska will not participate, and
those In charge at headquarters here feel
compelled ao to construe It. In an In
definite way they are still hoping that
Nebraska will get in, but on paper they do
not figure. This will cut down the total
soldiery at the camp considerably, as
without the Nebraska guardsmen there
will be no more tban 6,000 troops and A04
officers present.
Should tardy indication of its Intention
to have repreaentatlon In the maneuvers
yet be received from Nebraska It will over
turn considerable plana to date, though
of course Major General Bates will be
glad to have the two extra regiments on
hand.

ins; yesterday and the good attendnc
was the occasion for several changes in tho
company's affairs.
Members have been dissatisfied with tho
progress being made in tho sal of tho
common stock of the company and have
for some time been casting about to dis
cover the probable reason for the failure
of the plan to become popular: John
Becsn Ryan Thursday afternoon presented
bis Ideas on the subject In such a man
ner as to attract attention and yester
day, by a unanimous vote, he was em
ployed as manager of the enterprise and
Instructed to put his Ideas Into effect.
Mr. Nettleton, who was brought from
Kansas City to act as superintendent of
the enterprise, resigned, but bis resigna
tion was not accepted.
The board then discussed the reason for
the usually small attendance at the meet
ings and decided to trf another meeting
place for a month. The secretary was In
structed to arrange with the manager of
the Millard hotel for a private dining
room at that house and a meal at- 12:30
o'clock next Thursday, to which time and
place the board adjourned.
FIXES CARNIVAL 8EHAVI0R
Chirr of Police Will Prohibit Several
AaaoylasT and Daasjeraas
Diversions.
Unless he Is Instructed to tho contrary
Chief of Police Donahue Intends to Issue an
order which will take from carnival week
t . . ...
wutu oi me noise ana contusion and a
quantity of the ginger. The order which
tho chief contemplates issuing Is to ths ef
fect that during the Ak-8ar-Ben festivities
there shall be no confetti thrown oa the
streets, no explosive canes used, no blank
cartridges fired, no rubber balls attached
to rubber striugs smashing tb hats of pas
servby snd no tin horns blown.
Tha chief will allow confetti throwlna- In
the carnival grounds, but this privilege haa
a atrlng to It. It will be permiasible only
It the management of the grounds agrees to
kp lb streets In the enclosure absolutely
clean, free of aand and dust. Tho who
throw confetti will not bo allowed to pick
a handful off of the streets to throw.
"I intend to issue thla order," said th
chief, "because the throwing of confetti is
dangerous and the olber things mentioned
ar an- oymr, and where one person enjoys it,
nve hundred object. It may not be generally
known, but there were a large number of
persona last year who came very near losing
their eyesight because of tho confetti throw
ing habit. Clean confetti, of courae. Is not
dangeroua, but the throwers do not atop at
that. They pick up the stuff on the streets
and with it they get all kinds of dirt and
aand and It is too dangerous to permit
"The blowing of horns In persons' ears
la a nulaance and annoying. The shooting
of blank revolvers la dangerous. I do not
Intend to allow the diacbarge of anything
like this, for the simple reason It gives a
good opoprtunlty for snyons who so desires
to fire a loaded revolver and aomeone Is sura
to grt hurt It msy bs that I will be re
versed oa this order, but I shall lasus tt
nevertheless, snd If I am Instructed to
rescind It I will. But I believe It will meet
with the endorsement of the people, or at
least a large majority of them."
