EVEN SALOONS CLOSED.

A Remarkable Religious Movement
 in Omaha-MOnster Mass Meeting
 of Nearly Ten Tho usand People.
 OMAHA, Dec. 15.-A remarkable re- ligious movement is in progress here. Yes terday at g o'clock religious mass meet ing, in which nearly 10000 persons took part, convened at Exposition hall. It WAS com posed largely of business men and their employees.
 Stores were closed, doors of saloons were nailed up, and even freight trains were temporarily abandoned in the heat of the religious enthusiasm.
 It is the result of mathematician movement conducted by Evangelist Fay Mills, under the auspices of all the Protes- ant churches of Omaha. Mir. Mills came here two weeks ago. His manner was un- ostentatious and his words of the simplest. Daily his influence has spread. At 9:3O o'clock yesterday it seemed like l Sunday. It is in the midst of holiday | trade, but merchants closed their doors, l msrshaled their clerks and went out with l them to Exposition hsll and listened to the words of the reviyalist; lawyers left their | offices and bankers their desks. Even saloon-k n-keepsrs have caught the in, l feotion, and many of them closed theil doors tighter than they do even when the law says they must, and made their way te church Tuesday evening three minister started out to make tour of the saloons
 They went with no hope of success. Thel
 went expecting insults and sneers. Theil
 request was listened to, however, with re
 spect, and many of them promised no | only to close their doors, but also said tha
 they would attend the meeting.
 One saloon showed a card saying .'Closed to Go to Church"
 II At 8 o'clock 200 homes in all parts o
 Omaha held neighborhood prayers. Tn Christians of the neighborhood gathere together to pray for blessing upon tn services of the day. The schools wer

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

The theater was packed last evening tc witness "Wife for Wife," a comedy drams by Mir. John A. Stevens. The cast was 6 strong one, including Joseph Slsyton, liar. " Clayton, Emil La Croi1 and Mics Lottis Winnett. The story is laid in the south, just before the war, a romantic period when the southern gentleman WAS like 6 feudal chief and the black man like his serf. The play opens in New Orleans. and thence to Florida, and in every scene the atmosphere of southern life is preserved and accentusted with fidelity. The hand
 some and impulsive gentleman, Edward Walton, is sharply contrasted with a male volent octoroon, George, while the typical duelist and gentlemanly dsspersdo is in Richard Singleton, like a page out of old Louisiana life. The story of ''Wife for Wife" is vivid, its climax is logical and its plot intricate without being involved. Be. tween the third and fourth acts Mir. Murphy. the temperance evsngelists, made stirring address, as elsewhere mentioned.
 Dr. W. Frank Carver will make his frs, appearance in this city at this house next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in bis new sensational play entitled ''The Scout It is said to be most unique production.

 BRUSSELS, Dec. 15.-The committee ap-
 pointed by the international monetary
 conference to consider the various projects
 nsbmitted to the conference have adopted
 report in which they state that in consid-
 ering the various proposals submitted to

 of general principles and did not discuss the
 details necessary to give the several pro- posals effect. After reviewing the reasons for and against the different plans, the re- port concludes:
 "Having regard for the fact that the conference has not yet pronounced on the general question, the committee do not feel justified in taking & vote upon the projects referred to them, or in attempt ing to formulate & compromise between the varying monetary doctrines advanced. Senator Jones of the United States dele gation made strong speech at the mone- tary conference to-day in favor of bimetsl- lism. MT.
