A call for a special meeting of the coun cil at 10 o'clock this morning was signed by Councilman Huntington, chairman of the finance committee, yesterday after noonv The meeting Is for the purpose of passing appropriation ordinances for sala ries and liabilities Incurred during the month of September and prior thereto. A report has been prepared for the finance committee which recommends that salaries and bills he allowed as far as there are unexhausted funds to cover, and that the city attorney be Instructed to confess Judgment In the district court for those wages which the city is unable to pay. By this means City Attorney Wright hopes to evade the necessity of city em ployes assigning their wages at exorbi tant rates of interest. The Judgments, he argucB. should be disposed of the same as warrants. Blank assignments will be pre pured and given to employes. Assignors may register them In the treasurer's office and they will draw Interest the same as warrants. Suit may be entered to cover sll em ployes Involved, but need be signed by but one of the plaintiffs. Councllmen seem to favor the expedient snd the scheme very likely will be adopted at the meeting this morning.

VICTORY a Test b Wins titer RirliiDia In Vote of Two to One. KANSAS CITY, Oct. !.-Samuel Farks, the New York walking delegate, wn a personal victory over President Frank Ruchansn In the forenoon session of the structural iron workers. It developed that an amendment to the constitution, drawn by J. Dugan of Chicago, a Buchanan adherent, to the effect that no man holding political office be eligible to "presentation at any convention of the as tlon, or to hold an executive ofllce i came up for discussion. It was (A at Richard J. Butler, a member of . No. 2, and an asemblyman from New City. President Buchanan left the chair and spoke for tjie amendment and was followed ! by Samuel I'ai ks, who opposed It In one of , tne most ardent speeches or tne conven tion. The amendment was defeated, 13 to 32. One-third of the delegates did not vote. Besides President Buchanan, James O'Hrlen of Pueblo, Clarence Smart of Chicago and John L. Lee of Detroit spoke for the amendment. Thomas McGovcrn of Albany spoke earnestly against the amend ment and then Samuel Parks took the floor to fight It. Mr. Parks aroused the conven tion to the highest pitch of excitement. He claimed that the amendment was aimed at him, for it sought to oust his protege, As semblyman Butler. It was nothing but an other fight by President Buchanan and his crowd against Union No. 2. Mr. Parks then paid a glowing tribute to Delegate Butler, asserting that he had done great things for union labor. "Do you want to turn this man down?" he fairly shrieked, "and In favor of a man whose ruling you already have repudiated? Of course, you don"t. Vote against this amendment and be men." After Parks had taken his seat It was some minutes before President Buchanan could restore order and call for a vote, so Intense was the demonstration for the New Yorker that followed. When the amend ment was declared defeated Parks was surrounded and congratulated. After the convention adjourned the Parks crowd asserted that the vote showed plainly their strength and that Donnelly for president would be elected. KANSAS CITY. Oct. i.-At the afternoon session a committee was sppolnted to draw up a working agreement between the shop, or inside, men and the outside men. President Buchanan brought up the ques tion of organisation In the south by sug gesting that he believed something should be done In this regard. He made no recom mendation, but said simply that he believed the time had come to take some kind of ac tion, and he asked for expressions of opin ion on the subject. A long discussion fol lowed. Every delegate who spoke was op posed to taking up the matter at this con vention, arguing against recognition, and the subject was dropped. The election was again ptit off another day. CRIPPLE CREEK. Colo., Oct. 2.-Charles G. Kennlaon, president of District Miners' union No. 1, who has been a prisoner In the military guardhouse for fifteen days, was eaeorted by troops to the county Jail today and delivered Into the custody of Sheriff Robertson, who served on him a capias charging him with carrying concealed weapons.

The hearing In the district court on the application for a habeas corpus writ for Kennlson was deferred this morning until afternoon, as General Chase did not pro duce the prisoner In court. C0MPLICATI0NGR0WS DEEPER Fnslonlsts la Mew York May Remove Grant and Fornes from Ticket. NEW TORK, Oct. 2. It Is regarded as certain that the fuslonlsts will Immediately make an attempt to erase the names of Comptroller Grout and Aldermanlo Presi dent Fornes from their ticket. The full strength of the Citizens' union committee of 160 has been summoned for a meeting to be held tonight to deliberate on the Im portant questions Involved In the proposed change of candidates, and the republicans stand ready to follow Ihe lead of the Cltl sens' union. It Is certain that Messrs. Grout and Fornes will resist the plan to remove them and the question of the legal right of the Citizens' union and republicans to with draw them will be thrown Into the ourts as soon as possible. The decision of the Brooklyn democrats to support Congressman McClellan for mayor seems to have eliminated Lewis Nixon as an Independent democratic can didate for that office.

COLD FACTS PLACED BEFORE VOTERS Matters of Personal Concern Ki. plained and Points of Pablle Mo ment Brought Ont Clearly During; the Debate. Edward Rosewater was the principal speaker before the Seventh Ward Repub- j iicnn ciuo last mgnt. iwemy-iwo candi dates. Including Judge Vlnsonhaler, ad dressed the meeting, hold In a hall on Leavenworth street near Twenty-seventh. - j jjr F. Gurley also spoke briefly. Rosewater explained his position In the present campaign and replied to Judge Vlusonhiilcr's public letter In which the lalter sought to defend himself by attack ing Mr. Rosewater. Vlnsonhaler's friends had packed the hall and made considerable noise, but listened to all who addressed them. The candidates who spoke were: W. A. Redlck, for district Judge; Fred Btuhhen dorf and L. N. Gonden. for county treas urer; D. M. Vlnsonhaler and H. P. Stod- i dard. for county Judge; W W. Illnghnm j and D. M.

Bralley. for coroner. Harmony Not a Delusion. Mr. Rosewater. after alluding to the re cent harmony meeting In Washington hall as the most representative gathering of local republicans In forty years, said the general sentiment resultant showed that the rank and file of the party are heartily tired of factional discord, and that for him self, while he bad been pointed to by the opposition press as the only stumbling block in the way of harmony, he had la bored for months to make that meeting possible. He said he proposed to carry out the plan by voting for some men he has heretofore opposed and by not voting for some men whom he had heretofore sup ported. Concerning criticisms as to his policy as a newspaper editor, he recited a brief hls-1 tory of the partisan press, showing how In the early days it was a subsidized press, the mere mouthpiece of party leaders and expected to endorse all men and principles advocated by the party whether right or wrong. With the Induction of the new Journalism propagated by Horace Greeley the editor had been freed from these humil iating chains and a Just freedom realized that has made it possible for newspapers to point out the errors of their own party and expose the bad members of the organ ization. "I desire to see the best man nominated," said Mr. Rosewater, In substance, "and I desire If possible to say good words for all nominees, so that pot only party ad herents, but the Independent-minded voter, may be Induced to vote for them." - i As to Vlnsonhaler. He then look up the personal controversy with Judge Vlnsonhaler, which, he said, he regretted to feel obliged to do. "In the letter to the World-Herald published this morning," he said, "Judge Vlnsonhaler at tempts self-vindication of the charges against him by dwelling on two matters in relation to myself, which would seem In his mind, apparently, to Imply a lack of moral stamina on my part and a penchant for vlndU-'tlvcnees and malice. "In regard to the first, namely, that I called upon him at the court house and re quested him to continue an ejectment case against Julius S. Cooley, I am ready to plead guilty. My doors have always been open to beggar or hanker. Men and women come to my office seeking my aid in secur ing employment dally. I have never re fused a favor I could grant to any human being, black or white, Irrespective of creed. In behalf of Julius Cooley, I went to Judge Vlnsonhaler and requested the continuance, being careful to qualify the request with a statement that it was desired If It did not Interfere with Justice. I suppose hundreds of lawyers do the same thing right along, and I can't see wherein I had a bed mo tive. Story of the Loan. "The second charge Is that I attempted to borrow I'.'O.OOO or $25,000 of trust funds in the county judge's hands, offering to give Bee building stork as security. This Is made to sound like a most extraordinary case. The Impression Is given by the head ing and the letter that the securities are worthless and that I attempted to abuse the trust reposed In Judge Vlnsonhaler." Mr. Rosewater then recited part. of the history of the construction, and financing of the Bee building and the ocesalon for borrowing money lit 1902 to meet a judg ment obtained by the defunct Omaha Sav ings bank. A broker, Mr. Boatrlght, had of bis own volition approached Judge Vln sonhaler regarding the loan after suggesting to Mr. Rosewater Ills belief thst he could negotiate a loan In this manner. Boatrlght had called on Judge Vlnsonhaler without Mr. Rosewatcr's knowledge and the latter had conferred with the judge at the form er's suggestion. "I found that the judge declined to loan trust funds except under certain condi tions," said Mr. Rosewater, "and the matter (Continued on Second Page.)

Showers had bom predicted lor last evening to dampen the holiday ardor of the crowd and we.iken the pink lemonade to the point of transparency, but the restraining order did the business and the thousands did the exhilarated rubber up and down the Carnival streets. The wind attended the Carnival also nd took a IihihI at the confetti throwing, sending rain bow speckled clouds of dust t ccnslonally to ward the Hawaiian vilhige. It also excused the j'reo shows during the afternoon, for neither Hurry RushcII nor Calvert felt It necessary to risk their nets from their high placrs nf operation.

The whole work of free entertaining iell upon Calvert, but he was able to austulu the burden with his ballanclng pole and won the hearty applause cf the revellers. Besides the ordinarily difficult stunts he walked across with his feet through a bar rel, sat on chairs and ate a delicate lunch J from a table ballanced at the ceitor of the wire. He also did some trying work on the suspended trapeie. The midway did a lhrlliig business. All but wto of the shows on tne pound were running full steam and followers of every . school of sclllng were to be licgrd. 'The Hawallans pleased the people very much snd repeatedly tilled their tent. They ring the soft and tuneful UUud songs, am In English snd soma in the mother tongue, , with a harmony snd feeling which . was recognised.

I Low Rates Bring Crowds. The one-half Ak-Sar-Ben rate far which went Into effect yesterday on Omaha rail roads is bringing crowds lo the c ty. The actual rush has not yet begun, but rallnpad officials expect tu have all tney can handle by Monday. All of the roads ere figuring on running spaclala out after lli i grade on Thursday night, but so far none has come to a definite conclusion exospt the Northwestern, which will run to Carroll, a distance of luO miles, and about tha am distance on the Nebraska and Wyoming division. The Wabash will run its special to Pattonsburg, 150 miles, and tha Oreat Western will extend Its service to Carroll. Many of the excursionists have signified thtlr intention to remain In the city until the limit of live ticket, which Is on the Uth. and this fact has been the cause nf the delay by t tie railroads In, deciding whether it would be advisable to make tha special runs. Jf U Is decided to do so by the other ., roads, the specials will only run out from between fifty to sixty miles. The hotels are making special preparations for the visitors and every available amount of space Is being utilised. Extra beds ar being placed in the ronma, and cots are found In the hallways. The general opinion setrns to be that If the weather continue favorable from now on th crowd will be a record .rreaker. The merchants and others having display windows have been exerting themselves during the last few days to prepare f- feclive Ak-Sar-Ren displays which will at one and the same time show the out-of-town visitors that they are expected and gladly prepared for, and suggest to them the advisability of entering the marts of trade. An unscious bit of humor some times creeps Into these decoration. An Instance of this is to be seen on Cuming street, where a patriotic undertaker haa placed a big red. green and f range star in his window bearing the rather sinister legend, "Welcome."
