The letter of the presi dent was read and an informal dlscusslcn followed as to methods of procedure and plans. It was decided to leave these ar rangements to a committee consisting of Messrs. Davis, Parsons, Abbott, Randolph and Quellenec. While the board was in session the members of the Isthmian Canal commission called and were formally pre- sented. The duties of the board are sep arate from the commission, and the com mission simply provides rooms, clerks, In terpreter and necessary facilities for the transaction of the business of the board.

It was suggested that the meetings should be public, but this was decided in the negative. An executive committee consisting of Messrs.

RAILS FOR WESTERN ROADS Illinois (Heel Company Ilaa Orders Ahead for a Sis Months' Rna. CHICAGO, Sept. 1. The Iron and Ma chinery World tomorrow will say that more than 300.000 tons of steel rails for 1908 delivery has been sold by the Illinois Steel company within the last week. This rep resents the production of six months and fjlls up the mills to about July 1 of next year. Five western railroad systems have bought In lots ranging from 60,000 to 75.000 tons each. This haste of the western railroads to buy. Is In striking contrast with the slow ness of last year. The deduction aeems obvious that the railroad managers are anticipating for 1906 splendid business, both for the steel mills and for the railroads. Accompanying the large trading In rails there Is good buying of track material. INTERNAL REVENUE LARGER Receipts Make Heavy Gain Owing to Bis; Purchase of Spirits at Reduced Price.

REPUBLICAN CLUB MEETINGS Three Eeld Lir, Night at Which th Candidates Make Talks. DAVE MERCER ADDRESSES SIXTH WARD Former Congressman Makes Lengthy Speech on Record of the Party, with Some Reference to Local Situation. Mr. David H. Mercer, a trifle fatter than he used to be, but lacking none of the ancient humor, did a little sketch for the pleasure of the Sixth ' Word Republican club In Idlewlld hall last night. The skotih Consisted mostly of dancing upon the dis sembled bones of the democratic party, analysing the ethnological, commercial ind political history of the United States from the time the Pilgrims landed and saying nice things about President Roosevelt and the republican party. About all that Mr. Mercer uttered which could be construed as having any reflection upon local conditions was about like this: The scene In this hall tonight has looked good to me. I notice the spirit of harmony that seems to permeate everv candidate, and like It. They have said that If de feated for nomination they will support the successful man. That is proper. That Is right. Life Is too short to get bitter. Let the defeated stand defeat like a man and the people will take care of him next time in a good fiRht. I can sympathize with the candidates who have addressed you. The road of the candidate Is a hard one. He travels a rocky, rocky road. Troubles beset hlm every hour of the day and nlsht. Many a time he will And himself out of oil for lamp, but even though he had the brlphtet electric rays close at hand they would net be bright enough to show him some villain lurking to tell a lie about him. One of the sneakers has warned John Mc Donald that some people think he Is the McDonald who held the odious garbico contract. That reminds me of the tln-e when I ran and was beautifully defeated for county Judge. A stow w.is put out that I, while c -ting as .i Hurtfeon ii r the Burlington road, had areputatod x man's arm and did It so badly t!in he was mlntd for life. The fellow was iiclmily pnrac-4 around as an exhibit. cDci ill in the Third ward. Mr. McDonald will do well to set the public mind straight on the garbage contract matter. Idlewlld hall held a good-sized crowd, mostly politicians and the roster of candi dates, who were there to speak and "show themselves," was so large that It was well towards 10 o'clock when "Our Dave" got On his feet before his audience. Once started he talked an hour. The candidates who solicited support at the primaries were Fred Hoye and John McDonald for sheriff, C. T. Dickinson and Charles Leslie for county Judge, W. B. TenEyck and Bryce Crawford for police Judge, W. O. Ure and II. E. OBtrotn for county commissioner, D. M. Have.rly for county clerk, H. C. Kubat, A. 8. Anderson and Charles Field for Justice of the peace; W. M. McKay for coroner and E. D. Simpson for constable. Mnth Ward Republicans. The Ninth Ward Republican club held a meeting Friday night with a big attend ance present. - Vice President J. E. Van Gtlder presided and after disposing of the routine business a number of candidates for nomination presented their claims for the suffrages of their fellow republicans In brief and telling addresses. The principal speaker of the evening was Judge Charles T. Dickinson, candidate for county Judge. His address was largely along party lines and the achievements of the republican party. Other speakers were 8. F. Moore, C. M. Bachman and George C. Cockrell, candidates for Justice of the peace; W. M. McKay and W. W. Mace, candidates " for coroner; A. J.' Donahue and Fred Hoye, candidal for sheriff, 'and W. B. Teh -Hyck, candidate for police Judge. Second Ward Republicans. The Second Ward Republican club gave the floor entirely to the candidates lust night. Addresses were made by D. M. Hav erly, candidate for the nomination for county clerk; Charles' Leslie and Charles Haller, who seek the office of county Judge; A. E. Clarendon, candidate for county superintendent; W. B. Ten Eyck, who wishes to be police Judge; W. W. Eastman, S. F. Moore and William Altstadt, seeking nomination for Justices of the peace, and E. H. Davie, candidate for the school board.

ACTED ONLY AS CUSTODIAN OF FUND Honey Paid Out as Directed by Ren dering Company No Portion of It Stolen or Vsed for Cor rupt Purposes. MILWAUKEE. Sept. 1. Charles F. rfis ter, the capitalist who was Indicted three weeks ago By the grand Jury on the charge of having Btolen $14,000 which had been placed In his hamla by the Wisconsin Rendering company, will make public to morrow morning a statement showing the manner In which the $2,Ono which ha had held for the company was disbursed. After the indictment was returned the president of the rendering company denied that Mr. Pfister had misappropriated any of Its money and since then the company has made full payment on notes held against it by Mr. Pfister without offering any counter claim. The Insinuation, however, has been circulated that the money. If not misap propriated, was used for corrupt purposes by Mr. Pfister. The statement now Issued Is corroborated by the bank, record show ing Mr. Pfister's personal account, by a statement signed by President F. O. Genes, Joseph Schaff and Louis Schoyer of the Wisconsin Rendering company, and also by a statement signed by John J. Crilley, the contractor to whom most of the money was paid. Mr. Cillley's Explanation. Mr. Cillley. In acknowledging the pay ments to hlm, explains that at tho. time the city contract was awarded to his firm he found himself unable to enter Into the con tract on account of lack of funds. He then entered Into an agreement- with the Wis consin Rendering company, which had an established plant at Mequon, that if that company would put up $i,000 with some re sponsible) man, out of which was to be paid the expenses Crilley was put to in connec tion with the contract, the work would be turned over to the rendering company. Mr. Pfiater was selected as the custodian of this fund. He had no Interest with any of the bids and paid out the money In accord ance with the orders of the parties inter ested and had nothing to do with It fur ther. None of this money, Crilley states, was used for unlawful purpose. The payments show conclusively that Mr. Pfister did not steal any of the rendering company's money and also that he did not use any of It In an Improper manner. A supplemental statement by Mr. Pfister's attorneys discloses the fact that when the grand Jury had the indictment undi"r con sideration two of its members, together with District Attorney F. E. MoGovern. visited the First National bank and trie re received Mr. Pfister's permission to ex amine his account. They found the entry shpwlng the deposit of $25,000 on July 19, 1M)7, but apparently disregarded entries on the same page showing the payments of $0,000 and $&.0tO respectively to Crilley, nor did they call upon Mr. Pfister for any ex planation, which would readily have put them in possession of facts showing the charge of theft to be without foundation. The statement now Issued seems to show there is no basis either for the Indictment on a charge of larceny, nor for the accusa tions that the money had by Mr. Pfister wa used by hlm corruptly.
