CLEVELAND. July S.-The Grand
Lodge of the Benevolent and Protective
Order of Elks met this morning. All
the grand officers were present. Exalted
Grand Ruler Quinlin made the opening
address, during which he referred to the
New York difficulty. lie said if any one
present feared legal proceedings he would
be permitted to withdraw. All the dele
gates from New York state applsuded
and refused to leave the hall. A Brook
lyn Elk said: I'VE are here and will re-
main. All we waot is protection in our
rights" He was assured that would be
done. The roll call showed 100 members
present. Adjourned until Wednesday
morning.

Thousands of knights.

MILWAUKEE. July S.-The fe Itures Of
the morning in Pythian conclave circles
were the grand reception at the exposi
ton building and the opening delIbera-
tons OF the supreme lodge. The exer
cises at the exposition building were
opened by the mayor, who made the
speech of welcome. The governor fol
lowed with a welcome in behalf of the
people of Wisconsin. Following the
reception members of the supreme lodge
were escorted to the west side Turner
hall, which was provided for their use
during the supreme lodge session, and the
first meeting OF that body was opened.
Approximately $1,000 persons re-
sponded to ~reveille at Camp Carnahan
this morning, but for aught that is posi-
lively known at Gen. Carnahan's head
quarters there might have been a million
men under the tents last night. There is
a deplorable lack of system about the
management of the camp, and the re-
sponsibility does not seem to rest on the
shoulders of any particular person. Up
to noon today only two hrigades had sub
mitted to Adit. Gen. Mckee n report of
the number of men under their jurisdic-
ton. A few cases of prostration from
hea. occurred yesterday aud today, but
lone are serious- The Red Cross society
has established a hospital on the grounds
and is caring for some cases of sickness.
The parade Of the Knights of Pythias,
in spite of the almost unbearable heat,
was a great success. Ten thousand men
were in line, The fifth brigade was com
posed of l5U Californians and knights
from other Western states under com
mand OF General George I'll. Schaffner.
Commander Carnahan s,renuously de.
nounccd the story to the effect that he
had denied the California delegation ad
mission to quarters because they wanted
to bring wine and liquors into the camp.
1t is a vicious lie and seems to have been
printed with malicious intent. The gen
eral said: There is no California divis-
ion here, and | have not yet met a single
man from that state. No application for
quarters has been made and quite natur-
ally they could not have been refused"

VICTORIA, B. c., July s.-The state
ments IN American papers dated Victoria
that schooners arriving here and at Maple
bay for the purpose of resistance to Amer
lean revenue cutters in Behring sea. are
wholly without foundation. The s~ealers
are generally of the opinion that no seiz
ures will be made this year. and have
gone into Behring sea in large numbers.
There is a rumor than an English war
cruiser has lately arrived in port and will
go into Behring sea for the protection OF
British %sealers, but this has not been con
firmed.

rotary OF the treasury wsuld obey the law,
but that every single section Of the bill
gave discretion to the secretary of the
treasury, who was packed" against sill
yer. Every single section of the bill con-
ferred, and was intended to confer, dis
erection on the secretary of the treasury,
by which he could destroy, dishonor and
degrade silver as money. He did not re-
fleet upon the present secretary of the
treasury. The treasury department had
been packed against silver ever since he
(Voorhees) had been a member of the
senate, not merely under the Republican
party but under his own party. until he
was weary of it.
Teller said that much as be disliked
the adoption OF half way measures, he
was compelled to support the conference
bill as the only measure which could bring
relief to the people of the United States
for the next few months. Congress would
assemble in December next. Ii the bill did
not work well it could reformed mex ses-
sion. He was restrained by courtesy due
to another body (the house of representa-
tives) from expressing his opinion with
regard to its course. A body which had
been considered the representative body
OF American people had iounted in the
face of the American people the demand
made upon it by Wall street and disre-
garded public sentiment. There had been
no lobby in either house, but there had
never been such a pressure brought
upon ngr as was brought
upon it at this session to defeat
the free coinage of silver. He believed
it impossible to secure free coinage at the
present session because the voice Of the
majority in the house was stifed and
could not be heard. aud it would never
be heard until the people of the United
States sent to the house and senate men
willing to represent them in spite Of ex-
terror influences.
Stewart said if the conferences bill was
executed in good faith las the senate was
bound to assume that it would bel il
would give great relief. He was confident
that it would be an object lesson that
would lead to free coinage.
Alter e~ulogies on the late Representa-,
tive Cox the senate adjourned.

Merely a low price is not an evidence Of
cheapness in merchandise, and quotations
of clothing prices are of all things most
deceptive. We do not keep what is called
cheap" clothing. We always have some
garments for men and boys at low prices;
but we get them by marking down the
broken lots and SLOW selling l,ts Of good
quality. These bargain garments adver-
tise themselves. Ifyou want a s~erviceabIe
Overcoat, Suit or odd Coat, Vest or pair
of Trousers for very little money. we can
usually supply much better value than
the price asked would buy in the regular
way. Most people, however, want the
best clothes they can afford to wear, and
our rightly-made garments are Intended
to supplant the custom work. Therefore
you annot Judge of the prices without
seeing the clothes.

return to make a printers heart sick.
Sometimes a senator will demand a second
proof at o'clock in the morning, and
what a howl he will raise if he doesn't get
it!
Waiting for copy and waiting for proofs
is the bane of life in The Record room.
Messengers are sent out to hurry the
statesmen, but the great men are often
found at dinner or at poker, and they re-
fuse to be disturbed. Some of these states
men have queer notions about orthogra-
ply. One changed the word traffic" as
he found it in his proof, TO ''traffick," and
when the revise went back TO him without
the final TX" he wrote on the margin:
what in hades do you take me for? Don't
you suppose l know how to spell ''trsf-

The Record should go TO press at 4 a. m.
1t is often 6 before the pages are ready.
Getting The Record to press is in some re-
spects different task than that which the
foreman of a morning paper has before
him. In the newspaper Office page after
page may be CLOSED up and sent to the
stereotyper long before the last take" of
copy has been pulled from the hook. The
rush of the closing hour is on but one or
two pages, three at the utmost and then
two men can work on each page. But The
Record cannot be made up till every
line is in. 1t is book work, in that il is a
straight story from start to finish, and if
some vain or tiuid congressman is holding
ont his speech, "stickful' in length per
hap5, fifty pages of matter are held on the
galleys till these lines can De corrected and
put in their proper place. Only one man
can work Ion the stones" making up the
Record, and twice this year The Record has
consisted Of 104 pages. The largest Record
ever issued consisted of 112 pages, nearly
equal in number of words to a thirty-six

New York, and great than the news

Commencing Sunday, July 13,lS9O, the
Missouri Pacific railway will run through
sleeping cars from st. Louis via Pleasant
Hill, Rich Hill, Fort Scott and Wichita to
Geneseo and from thence to Pueblo. Colo
RADIO Springs and Denver. This change
was made on account of great many peo-
pie from the east going to Colorado being
DESTROYS of going via Wichita. The train
will stop here two hours, giving all q
chance to view the Peerless Princess" and
still land passengers in Colorado same
time as if they had gone via Kansas City.
II also gives the citizens of Wichita sleep
ing car service from here to Colorado. Re
turning, it gives us through sleeping car
service Wichita toSt. Louis, and gives the
Colorado people a chance TO go east via
Wichita. This change will undoubtedly
be appreciated by the travelling public, and
by the citizens of Wichita. If
YOU are going east or west go via the pop
ular new through route. Through chair
and sleeping car service. New route Just
completed between Fort Scott and Rich
Hill goes through the finest mineral and
agricultural country in the west. Don't
forget the new short line to st. Louis or
Colorado.
