and the compliments Of the season to all
our patrons Christmas must be OBJ
served, and the best way to observe the
anniversary is to buy CLOTHING. We
have superb stock in this line, upon
which even st. Nicholas would gaze with
adm;ring eyes. You couldn't cast your
eyes on anything better worth seeing if
you travelled a hundred miles, but
Christmas isn't travelling time. It's
much better TO take a good thing at
home than to do without it until you can
go out of town. It's putting the case
mildly to say that it's On Inconvenience
to do without Clothes. Why should
you when we are selling these goods at
such taking prices !?

ON HIS DEATH BED,
Alarming Reports About the Con-
dition Of James G.. Blaine'S
Health.
His Lungs Have Been Attacked,
and a Speedy Termination of
Life Looked For.

New YORK, Dec. 14.-The following
special dispatch from Washington has
been received: James G. Blaine is now
on his deathbed. The strength-sapping
malady from which he has suffered for
so long time has assumed form
which warns his family and friends of a
speedy termination. The disease at
tackled his lungs a short time
ago, and it's course has baffied the skill
of his physicians. The visit of Dr.
Janeway to Mr.. Blaine is indicative of
the extreme anxiety of his family. Mr..
Blaine's weakness, however, increased
so rapidly that it was deemed unsafe to
move him, and the trip South which has
been planned for must be abandoned.
Rev. Father Ducey's visit to Mr.. Blaine
at this time has added to the rumor COIL
siderable substance.
Very much BETTER" was the reply
given this evening at the family resi-
dence to the inquiry about the health of
Hon. James q. Blaine.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-At 2 o'clock
this morning the Blaine residence was
entirely darkened, the family and serV-
ants having retired. There is no evi-
dence whatever that a sick-watch is
being kept There is no light burning
in any Of the rooms or Railways.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-The silver
and anti-Sllver men in the houses are
engaged in little light skirmishing in
anticipation of the failure of the Brus-
sells international monetary conference.
from which members say they expect
nothing. Each side is now endeavoring
to learn something of the purposes and
views of the other side. Talks with free
silver men and with open, avowed op-
pOnents of the present Sherman law
show that it is believed 10 be unlikely
that anything will be done at this ses-
sion. either in the way of an repeal of
the Sherman law or the enactment of
more radical silver legislation.
This morning the house coinage COM
mittee held its regular meeting. The
day was set for consideration of the
Williams bill to repeal the Sherman
law. Mr. Williams, its author, was not
present, and accordingly the bill went
Over. There was then some very in
formal general discussion Of the silver
question. A proposition was put for
ward in rather indefinite shape that
an opportunity be given in the house
for vote on the repeal of the Sherman
law. The free coinage men were not
unwilling that this should be done, but,
in order to preserve their present par
liamentary advantage, suggested that
the method by which to accomplish this
was to take up the Bland bill, which at
the last session was finally displaced by
a few dilatory movements after the
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1892-12-15
MAY SQUARE HIS OFFICE.
That Is Probably the Way Conkey
Will Obtain That Contract,


CHICAGO. Dec. 14.-That dispute con-
cerning the letting of the contract for
the official catalogue of exhibits to Con-
key d Co, is at last in fair way to be
settled. The exposition officials have
surprised the representatives of organ
lied labor by meeting them more than
half way. Tomorrow at p. m. the entire
subject will be carefully considered by
an unbiased committee and an agree
ment reached. The opinion is preva-
lent that settlement will be reached by
unlonizing the Conkey establishment
Mr.. Conkey announced tonight that he
had no objections to the labor unions
and that he intended to pay more than
union wages to the men who worked
upon the catalogue.
The labor representatives, in their
protest to the worlds fair board of con-
troll today against letting the catalogue
contract to the Conkey company. made
the following specific charges of fraud:
1--WE charge that Chares Tannev,
proprietor of the Wheeling (W. Va.j
Register. paper of great political in
tluence in that state, has block of
stock in this mysterious catalogue pub
fishing company; that another politi.
clan from the same state is in the deal
and certain local wealthy worlds fair
officials are also deeply in the job.
This being the case we can safely as
sert that an attempt has been
made to suppress competition for
this contract in order that certain Off
GERS of the fair might reap pecuniary
benefit, or satisfy their political ambi-
tion."
The politician alluded to is Worlds
Fair Commissioner w. ID. st. Clair, of
West Virginia, according to a story that
has been whispered around world fair
circles for some days. Mr. st. Clair took
occasion this evening to vigorously deny
that any suspicion of improper motives
could attach to him in connection with
the printing contract.
