Tha various event were executed with
a dash that was appreciated liy the specta

th worthy points than thy did on tha
venlng before. I'a rtlrularly wa the ap

won aevera! tlrst prizes. Real horse show
rnthuslasm manifested Itself several tlmea
during the evening.
' What TKejr Are l.enrnlna:.
During the galteil ssddle horae. event
some criticism was heard In regard to the
disparity between the habits worn by the
rld.ra and the mounts. This criticism
came particularly from momliers of the Hit
and Hrldle club, who said they had come to
th show to learn all thut wi correct ami
proper In connection with the horae.
With tin- horse show baa come a revival
of the custom of women carrying large
bunchaa of ruses, the long-stemmed variety
being most It: evidence last evening. This
la to be but one of the little fiuls and
foil. lea that will fo'low In the wake of the
how aa the wek advances.
When the third event waa being started
rr. limy made a personal request that
th promenade be tlllej and In a few mln
titea about a hundred of tho braver ones
tame closer ti the tanhark and sawdust
and the Auditorium began to take on the
real appearance of a horae show.
Vice Iresldent learned and several other
if the ofTV-lnls expressed themselves as
well pleased with the beginning of the show
and aald. all thlnts considered, the inter
act thua far manifested will compare with
out discredit with any other city giving Its
first hor show.

la a grand event. It t something new for
tie) and this evenlng'a attendance can not
be considered merely from a numerical
land point."
)! f Attewdaa.
As a matter of fact, there was not much
Biore than half the attendance of the night
before. A number were heard to express
the opinion that the prlcea charged for
admission are militating against the at
tendance the character of the show merits.
Other say that a horse show, being more
of a society than a popular event, could
not be expected to have a turnaway crowd
very evening. Horsemen, generally, how
ever, are Jubilant over the show, and say
that It will bear fruits In abundance, both
y paving the way for future shows and
Cpularlung the horse in this section of
country.
Last evening was South Omaha night and
a little dash of ginger was Infused into
tb conventionality of the program when
the potato rac took place. Most of the
riders in this event were from Packing
town, and they entered the contest with
a seat that reminded the audience of a cir
cus rather than a horse show where cor.
rectnea and form are the predominant
feaiurea The pot aloe race was thoroughly
appreciated.
This afternoon a matinee will be given
and today has been designated aa Council
Mluffs day.

The opening event for roadsters brought

hardly more entries would be found in the
roadster clusa at the New York show. The
locale, which Included J. C. Sharp, T. C.

which went to three of the professional
horses that are to be seen at utmost every

Judgment Asralnat Slonx Falls.
8IOCX FALTiS. S. D., Sept. 27.-tSpeeial.)
Much to the surprise of Mayor Burnslde
and members of the city council the South
Dakota Central Railroad company secured
from Judge E. O. Smith of the state circuit
court for the Yankton circuit a Judgment
against the city of Sioux Falls for the
sum of HO.oOO. When the work of con
structing the line of the South Dakota
Central from Sioux Falls to Colton com
menced the railroad company asked aid
from 8loux Falls, and with the approval of
practically the entire population tne city
oounclt voted warrants in the sum of 110,000
to the new railroad company. Before the
warrants could be surrendered to the com
puny a prominent local attorney secured an
Injunction restraining the city from trans
ferring the warrants, on the ground that
the appropriation of the aum waj Illegal.
He afterward withdrew, but one or two
other citizens came forward and kept the
injunction In existence. The city authori
ties were aware of the suit being Insti
tuted at Yankton, but never thought that
a Judgment would be awarded In tho face
of the injunction which was In effect la
this city. An effort will now be made to
have tho case reopened by Judge Smith
and the order grunting tha Judgment with

' IU'TTE, Mont., Sept. 2T.-Vhen Senntor
Fairbanks and his party arrived here they
found the republican leaders much excr
I rlscd over the publication in the Miners'
Magazine, published in Denver by the
WeMern Federation of Miners, of what
1 puriKirted to he a denunciation of labor
i unions by President Roosevelt, and a denial
of Its authenticity by tho president. The
president's contradiction waa sent to for
mer Senator l.ee Mantle In response to a
telegram of Inquiry from him, and was as
follows :
WlilTK HPI'SR. WASHINGTON. Sept.
!Y Your telegram received. The letter you
refer to purporting to be addressed by mo
to Michael Donnelly and printed In tho
.Miners' MaRiiKln - of Septemlier 22 Is. of

have written no such letter, nor any letter
even resembling It. to Mr. Donnelly, nor
any one else. I have written Mr. Donnelly
requesting to know if he has received any
such letter and requesting him. If so, to at
once lay 1. before the district attorney of
Chicago to find out whether It is possible
to discover and punish the forgers.
TI I KOI to R K RODS K V E L.T.
The letter In which toe president was
represented to have made his attack on
union labor was addressed to Michael Don
nelly of Chicago, president 'if the Butchers'
and Meat Cullers' union. The document is
given In full, with President Roosevelt's
name attached, but without date, and It Is
atated that It wns written In response to
an appeal by Donnelly to him to Interfere
for the settlement of the late butchers'
strike. Following are some extracts from
It:
I atand ready to do as my Illustrious
predecessor, Urover Cleveland, did and as
sert the power of this nation against all
local nulllfiera.
Last Hummer I felt Impelled to write a
letter calling upon my countrymen to put

and crime are aa great a national menace

Let me tell you thnt the first duty of the
officers of the law. whether they be sheriff,
constable, municipal officers, mayors, gov
ernors or the president himself, is to main
tain public order and put down the muh
with an iron hand.
After advising Donnelly to put a stop to
the strike the president Is represented as
saying:
In ury case be assured I will keep my

collision with the laws of the I'nltcd
States, then my hand will go on In a way
you will not like. So far ns 1 am concerned

Speeches nt Anaconda, Butte, nigr
Tl in her and (Mher Points.
BUTTE, Mont., Sept- 27. With a speech
at Anaconda, made late today, and one in
this city tonight. Senator Fairbanks con
cluded his second day In Montana. Tho
Itinerary for the day covered the line of
the Northern Pacific railroad from Bllllnga
to this point, and thu party passed from
the Upper Yellowstone country Into tiio
Gallatin valley, crossing the continental
divide nnd arriving at Butte very little
after schedule time.
In additior to Anaconda and Butte, stops
for speeches were made at Big Timber,
Livingston, Bozeman and Whitehall.
At all of these places except Bozeman
practically the entire population turned out
to welcome the vice presidential candidate
and his associates and the exception at
Bozeman waa caused by a misunderstand
ing of the time of arrival. At Livingston
and Big Timber the school children were
marshaled for special display and formed
a noticeable feature of the meeting.
Speeches were made at all stopping places
by Senators Fairbanks and Dolllver and
ex-Senator Carter, and In each Instance
their remarks were frequently punctuated
by appluuse.
In the main tho speeches were along gen
eral lines and consisted largely of appeals
to sustain existing conditions by voting
the republican ticket.
Senator Fairbanks discussed the wool
tariff In his speech of the day made at
Big Timber. A light rain was falling and
the air was decidedly chilly, but despite
these facts the attendance was large. The
meeting appropriately was held In a large
wool warehouse by the side of the railroad
track, In which President Roosevelt had
also spoken. On the wool question Senator
Fairbanks said:
It Is the policy of the republican party
so as far as possible to diversify industry
throughout the I'nited Slates. It has
sought to stimulate the establishment of
new lndustried by means of protection. It
believes lu encouraging sheep husbandry
and in stimulating the production of wooien
goods in the Lulled States.
There is no good reason why the Amer
ican farmer should not be able to produce
the wool necessary to meet our great und
expanding domestic needs. We should not
turn over wool growing for our uses to
the farmers of Australia, the Cape of Good
Hope, the Argentine Republic or elsewhere.
We should not pursue a policy which de
stroys the American flock, but, on the
other hand, should, by the application of
the protective principle, encourage sheep
raising in our own country.
There is a radical difference between the
parties upon this Important subject. This
difference is nut found only In the plat
forms adopted by them, but In the legisla
tion of congress.
Iuiing the last democratic administra
tion wool was worth 7 to 9 cents per pound.
Now It Is 17 to 20 cents. We stand face to
face with the question ns to whether we
chall inntinue the republican purty, under
wlil'i, the wool industry has been put upon
a profitable basis, or shall return to the
democratic policy, which so greatly In
jured it.
Senator Dolllver also made brief speech.
WHITEHILL. Mont., Sept. 27.,-The only
approach to an accident that has occurred
on Senator Fairbanks' tour occurred today
at Dogan, In this state. It consisted In
breaking off of the steps on one side of
the private car Edmond. There was a
brief stop at this point and the lower step
was let down, and when the train started
it struck the station platform, resulting In
the demolition of the entire series of steps.
Colonel Ransdell stood on the steps, but
escaped without Injury. Senator Fairbanks
was ut!:; stum'lng on the station platform
and did not try to enter the car until the
trula came to a full atop again.

well up to schedule time when the accident
occurred.
The baggage and chair cars, a day coach
and a Bleeper left the rails and overturned.
At the place where the accident occurred
the track is on a level with the surround

NORFOLK, Sept. ii. (Special. ) Speaker
Cannon opened up at West Point this altei
l.oou, and, though the town Is In tho
enemy's country, every precinct was repre
sented. Fully jieople stood in tt swel
tering sun for two hours and listened to
tlu distinguished Illlnolsian tell of repub
lican principles. Though a rainstorm
lliivateiied during the entire speech, the
crowd remained to the end and frequently
Interrupted with applause. The town was
in Its Sunday clothes for the occasion. Hags
were suspendi d across Ihe streets, stores
were closed and everything denoted great
interest In tne meeting. The public schools
were dosed and the pupils marched lu a
body to the stand 111 the street from which
Mr. Cannon talked.
Former Treasurer Steufer and E. K. Val
entine, who served in congress with Mr.
Cannon twenty-live years ago, met tho
speaker nt Fremont and went with him to

the Party at Fremont and with the other
state candidates occupied scats on the
platform. Ex-Coiigresjman Valentine pre
sided and two bunds and the Oakdate quar
tet furnished the music. Mr. Cannon owns
land in Cuming county and when this an
nouncement was made by the chairman
he was at once accepted as one of them
and three strenuous cheers were given for
him.
His speccx was an argument In defense
of the republican protective tariff nnd he
described protection in this way: When u
product is munutacttired in another coun
try by labor costing $1 and It Is manu
factured here at a labor cost of $2, that
urticle cannot be brought Into this country
until a tax Is paid equal to the difference
lu labor cost lit contrasted the condition
of the country under a protective law and
under free trade and took a few more shots
at Parker's letter of acceptance. lie
charged that Parker announced himself hi
favor of rescinding the Roosevelt pension
order to make himself strong in New York
City, where the order Is unpopular. He
closed With an eloquent tribute to Con
gressman McCarthy and a plea for his re
election. Watson Speaks at Norfolk.
With ex-Senutor W. V. Allen occupying
a scat of honor on the Ktage, the campaign
wus begun here tonight. Speeches were
made by Speaker Cannon, Congressman
Watson and Congressman McCarthy, with
Mr. Watson the principal talker.
It was his first effort in this North Platte
country and he took well. He began lu
talk to an audience that wanted to hear
Speaker Cannon und ho quit with an audi
ence in love Willi Watson.
On this occasion Norfolk acquitted Itself
well.
A committee composed of Judge Barnes,
Judge Robertson, Burt Mapes and C. IS.
Burhnin met the Cannot, parly at West
Point and tho remainder of the town met
this party at the Norfolk station and a
band was along leiuling tho entire party In
carriages to the opera house, where the
meeting was held. Congressman McCarthy
presided at the meeting and did not fall
to compliment Senator Allen for getting
on the stage at the right time.
Mr. Watson, who has been 111, was suffi
ciently recovered to rest Speaker Cannon
and was the first and principal speaker.
His talk sparkled with good things and
he iiad his audience aroused at alt times.
He defied the democrats to make the fight
fur supremacy this fall on the record of
the republican party. He reviewed the
history of the republican party from the
time of Its organization and he made the
statement that not a democratic doctrine
was on the statutes. Everything that has
been done for -the progress of the country,
he said, had. been done under a republican
leadership. He denied that there was any
relation between the tariff and the trusts
and at length he answered the charge of
the" democrats that American manufactur
ers were selling goods cheaper In foreign
markets than In the home m.u ets. He
told of an Incident where a manufacturer
who said he had a home market for his
jods here for seven months in the year,
but not for the entire year. The goods
manufactured for which there was no sale.
he said, had been sold cheaper tn the for-
elgn countries on other occasions. Mer
chants sold cheaper In order to break Into
a new territory, but when their goods he-
came Indispensable they Increased the price,
He defended the protection lnw and quoted
statistics to sustain his position.
' Couraice of Conviction.
He told that the republican party was
the only party that had tho courage of Its
convictions. He told bow they had grap
pled with the money question and settled
It; the Philippine question, the slavery
question and that tho republican party
wns the only party that had done anything
with the trusts. He read the democratic
records where a congressional committee
had made its report that trusts were mul
tiplying, but left the republicans to fur
nish ttie remedy. He. reviewed the merger
case to show the republicans had met the
emergency. He laughed at the democratic
suggestion of militarism and made a great
hit when he called Parker a mystery and
Davis a reminiscence. He closed with ft
good shot for McCarthy, and the audience
cheered he reference to the echo.
Mr. Cannon closed the speaking with a
review of the pension order of Roosevelt
and the promise of Judge Parker to rescind
it, nnd then sold In substance;
"When our leading republican statesmen
die the democrats Immediately place them
In their salrils' calendar. Thoy did it with
Lincoln, with Grant and with Uarlield, and
now McKIu'.ey goes Into the calendar as a
part of Parker's letter. The democratic
platform demands reciprocity with Canadn,
and Parker tries to make McKlnley's utter
ances on reciprocity favor this plank. The
republican reciprocity and t lie kind which
McKinley favored was that reciprocity
which did not injure the American farmer,
producer and laboring man. What does
Cariada raise? Nothing but what we do.
therefore if we have reciprocity or free
trade with Canada we let In products to
compete with our own.
"That Is why McKinley and the repub
lican party did not and does not favor re
ciprocity with Canada. McKinley said that
we favor reciprocity provided it does not
Interfere with American Industry."
Mr. Cannon accused Judge Parker of mis.
quoting McKinley, nni to IM'istiate it told
this suggestive Htory of the Infidel who
said be could rove by the Bible that there
la no Go.l. When the man had read the
sentence, the preacher read: "A fool salth
In his own heart, there Is ni God," sup
plying the wuijs the lutiFul lull out.

Telegram to The Bee. 1 It Is annoiin'ed
here that the Uao Yang, vlctorv will be
Immediately followed by the establishment
of a largely Increased garrison throughout
Cored. During the last ten days 2.5m 'roups
have arrived at Chemulpo, and others arc
expected.
The Japanese authorities ut Wonson lire
collecting 4,m0 pack ponies for the uso of
the army to advance northward along tin
eastern coast toward Vladivostok. The ad
vance has already been begun. Sixteen
Hundred Japanese troops, with five machine
guns, ooo pack ponies and 4ml coolies, are
reported to have arrived at Ham Heung.
The advance guard was fired upon by
Cossacks. Ten men were killed and seven
teen wounded. The Japanese were com
pletely surprised and retreated. They are
waiting for the main body to come up.
The garrison at Wonson is being rein
forced from Seoul and Pycng Yun. The
Russians, mcnnwhlle, are sending rein
forcements south from Kapasan to effect
a Junction with the torce nt Puk Chlen.
On account of the great difficulties ex
perienced in obtaining; pack ponies, the
Japanese are shipping large quantities of
supplies north from Wonson by cargo boat
to Yuln lining.
The opinion pervalls here that northeast
ern Corea will be the scene of an active
winter campaign, and that the Japanese
occupation of Lino Yang and Mukden will
practically complete the Miinchurian opera
tions till the spring. ,
Meanwhile both belligerents are strongly
endeavoring to gain an advantage between
the Tunien river and Wonson.
It Is reported that the Hank of Japan,
an adjunct of the Toklo finance department,
Is establishing branches in important cities
throughout Corea. This Is probably the
first step toward gaining control of the re
construction of Cm- en's finances.
It Is reported thnt another secret society
has been formed In the north by the Cor
eans who are pro-Russian In sentiment,
with the object of affiliating with the Tong-
links, who are lending assistance to the
Russian advances.

men were thrown out of work. The en

The union bollermnkcra employed In the

! a few days before the shutdown came
General Superintendent of Motive Power
Rred, however, denied that tho shutdown
i was attributable to the demands of organ-

"The move is for economy In operating,"
said the railroad official. "The work that

" MADISON, Wis.. Sept. 27. Owing pre

illness, no decision was handed f.vwn by
the supreme court today covering the right

tion to be represented on the state C:ket

was crowded by attorneys and pollt'clans

Jnpiinfe Feellnar Way.
KI PETERSBURG, Sept. 27. The gen
eral staff has received the following dis
patch from General Sakharoff, dated .yes
terday: The enemy's vanguard, consisting of one
battalion and two squadrons of cavalry,
has assu lied the offensive, probably for a
reconnaissance, ill the district between the
Mandarin road and the heights of the vil
lage of T lumytsa. Its advance was stopped
by our troops. The enemy retreated along
the whole line, pursued by our cavalry.
The enemy has not yet advanced north of
linvan on the left bank of the Liao river,
but an Increased force has been observed
In the neighborhood of Slaiuiian. Japa
neo cavalry have appeared in the valley
of the Liao river.
Although un official announcement to the
effect is not expected immediately, since
it will require some little time to fet
Russia's second army In the field, the
designation of (irand Duke Nloholas
Nicholacvitch, the inspector general of
cavalry, as conimander-ln-chlef, Is re,
garded ns practically settled. The situa
tion at tho fror.t, with the two and per
haps ultimate! three big armies, is cou
sldurid to dema id, ttbove all else, thnt
the supreme commander be of such per
sonal authority as to he beyond Jealousies
and thu possibility of intrigue on the part
of subordinates, and such a man the em
peror now realizes can only be supplied
by n member of the Imperial family.
Grand Duke Nicholas is regarded as
being extremely well fitted for this great
responsibility. He will not rely upon a
single advher, but on a staff comprising
the ablest strategists of the general staff,
who in reality will constitute a board of
direction of military operations.
Viceroy Alexleff Is regarded aa almost
certain to return here. The report that he
may become chancellor of the empire, how
ever, is exploded. He Is "more likely to
retain his title and come to St. Petersburg,
nominally In the capacity of adviser of
the emperor, and will thus efface himself
as a factor of the military situation In the
far east.
Latest Develapments at Front,
'7 p. in. The latest development In the
situation at the front is the definite estab
lishment of the fact that Field Marshal
Oyama has now begun to move up his
left. General Kouropatkin's report today
shows that the Japanese have reached
Davah, on the west bank of the Liao river.
A considerable concentration of Japane&a
Is otiscrved nt Sianchan, on the Hun river,
thirty-five miles southwest of Mukden, and
Japanese cavalry is massing in the valley
of the Pu river. The latter Is s tributary
of the Hun river, which crosses the line
of railway mldwuy between Tie Pass and
Mukden, and muy furnish a natural Una
of advance from the west. Oynma's armies
now apparently cover a front of sixty
miles for enveloping movements. His
wings are extended to the northeast and
west of Mukden. Thus far the Russians
have found little strength or pressure from
the Japanese center. Oyama seems to be
moving with great deliberation, probably
gathering strength for a rapid advance of
both wings when an attempt is made to
close the net. Although the Imaginary lino
connecting the extreme Japanese advance
east and west of Mukden still passes ten
miles below that city, It is evident that the
fate of Mukden cannot long be delayed.
If General Kouropatkiu intends to try to
hold the city, fighting on his Hunks will
begin almost Immediately.
