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

1904. making an increase over last year's
collections for the corresponding period of

unusual purchase of spirits early in the

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

II. E. OBtrotn for county commissioner,
D. M. Have.rly for county clerk, H. C.

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 floor entirely to the candidates lust
night. Addresses were made by D. M. Hav
erly, candidate for the nomination for

Haller, who seek the office of county Judge;

superintendent; W. B. Ten Eyck, who

FFISTER MAKES A STATEMENT
k'ilwanVee Capitalist Explains Transaction
on Which Indictment is Eased.
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.
