What Mr.. Hooker Said.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Dear Sir: My attention has ,ust been called to
the following paragraph in your issue Thurs
day, June as, 1892:
"Mr. Hooker of Mississippi said, referring TO
Mr.. Cleveland, If he can carry New York he
can be elected, and certain parties in New
York having forced him on the party why let
them eject him. What did say was that New
York having nominated Mr.. Cleveland it was
the duty Of the New York democracy to unite
cordially and give him the electoral vote Of New
York, and if thsy would do that the other
democratic states would give him enough
electoral votes to place him in the presidential
chair.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant.

MAY NOT GET $4,000.

The Omaha DILL Committee Want to Scale
Down the Prizes.
The National Fencibles, in winning the first
prize at the Omaha drill, were awarded $4,000
on paper, but there seems to be some doubt as
to whether they will get that amount Of money,
as the committee in charge want to settle at
Fifty cents on dollar.
The prizes offered amounted altogether to
about $4,000. Members of military companies
here state that the invitations sent out repre-
sented that the money had been raised and
deposited in bank ready to be paid to the win
ming companies.
The Omaha Bee, in it's Issue of June p, saws:
"a meeting of the commissioned officers repre-
senting the winning companies and the local ex-
ecutive committee was held Immediately after the
parade was dismissed. Julius Meyer secretary
Of the local committee. informed the winners
that the prize money was not on hand and
offered to settle for so cents ON the dollar.
Every company represented refused to
cept the terms proposed, stating that they had
come here in good faith to drill for the money,
which they had been informed by circular letter
was deposited in a bank.
''Mr..Meyer replied that the attendance had
been very light all the week excepting the day
Of the sham battle, and that the gate receipts
would hardly pay expenses. Again he claimed
that the local committee had been led to
believe that fully sixty military companies
would be in camp, when in fact not half that
number attended. 1t was finally decided to
hold another meeting today to try to adjust
matters"
The Bee saws editorially:
''Our citizens have had their eye teeth cut on
the national drill. They were led to believe
that there would be at least 1000 or
5000 national guards at the encampment
On that basis the money guaranteed for
prizes proposed to be given for competitive
drill would have been realized at the gate by
the immense concourse of people at home and
abroad, but instead of 1000 or 5000 we have
had less than 1000 militiamen, and the par
ade and sham battle have proved dis
appointment in spite Of the favorable weather.
It seems TO us only rational that the number of
prizes should either be reduced or the amounts
for each prize cut in the middle. In view of
the limited number Of companies coaltesting
such concession would only be fair to al
concerned"
