FRANCIS MURPHY.

Another Rousing Meeting, Held at the
Davenport Church Last Might
over Two Hundred Moro Sign the
Pledge.
The announcement that Francis Murphy
| would speak at Davenport church attract.
ed very large number of people who were
anxious to hear the great evangelist. At
O'Clock it was impossible to get inside the
inner door. On the platform were Rev.
Mr.. Smith, Samuel P. Thrasher, Charles
A. Baldwin and the Messrs. Murphy. MI.
Charles A. Baldwin presided at the meet
ing and began an exhortation for funds for
the gospel temperance room, which is to
be opened tomorrow night. The fund
was given good start by the subscription
of Mrs. Frost, who offered $1OO. Mrs.
futile and Mrs. Adams were appointed a
committee to procure curtains for the
room.
Mr.. Thomas E. Murphy then in happy
speech introduced his father, Francis Muir
ply. The elder Murphy stepped forward
and was greeted with magnificent burst
of applause. He spoke In part as follows:
My dear son and kind friends-It gives
me great pleasure to meet and hear ON
this platform son who has always been a
comfort and mainstay to me and to feel Shat
he is with me in this glorious work. He
is one of a large family. He has three
brothers and two sisters. He was not
content with this arrangement, but had to
add to the number of sisters in the family
by bringing in another. He has a nohIe
and lovable wife. 'tShe is a queen: that,s
what she u.s." came from the son, who was
seated in the chair behind the father. The
father spoke of the work of the son Ed
ward and of his other sons and then
launched eloquently forth on the subject
of fellowship among men. He said that
If the men wished to smoke in
the new room there should not be anv
ono In there who would put on long face
and say "You mustn't do that" He
thought there were too many nice thinos
about a church of modern times to draw
men to It, If, instead of having every
thing nice and fine, the people would make
1t look as though q poor man could 20 in
there without soiling things they could
possibly get the poor man to 60 in there
and the poor man would attend the meet
ings and would become q good Christian
and an honorable church member and
member worthy of honor. This, he be-
lieved, was the great secret of getting at
the poorer men. The going right in
among the men who, though they do wear
greasy jackets, have good hearts was. he
thought, the secret of the success Of this

After Mr.. Murphy's address over two
hundred came forward and signed the |
pledge.

speaking of the subject he said substan

honesty and that the whole thing had been |
brought up as result Of personal spite. |
As far as the matter of permits is con-
cerned, he said, do not believe that there |
were nine permits issued for the George

of the board Of public works. The charge
is that there ia shortage of

have a number of times asked that my &C.

yet nothing has been done to my knowl-
edge. asked Alderman Prince to represent
me at the meeting of the board yesterday
and he remained there an hour or more
but was given no hearing. have been
informed that this thing was brewing for
some time and believe that the whole
thing is due to personal spite; in fact.
within few days have been threatened
by certain men, whose names do not care
at present to disclose, that unless certain
things were done in reference to the po-
itical situation this bombshel would be
sprung. I have no books belonging to the
department of public works; all are at
present, to the best of my knowledge and
belief, in the city hall. At least I have
| none of them. This thing has been sprung
at the present time for purpose. do
not believe that more than two members
of the board Of public works knew that
this thing was coming up thirty-six hours
ago. am not ready at present to talk
upon the matter, because I do not wish to
bring certain people into the affair, but
will probably later be in position where
I can talk more freely. The end of this
matter is not yet.
/ Ex-CITY ENGINEER HILL SPEAKS.
Elk City Engineer A. B. Hill was also
seen and stated that so far as he was aware
all the books belonging to the city engi-
neer's department were in the custody of
| the board of public works. He had been
| informed that bombshelI was to be ex-
ploded about the time of the city election,
and supposed this was the one intended.
THE CHANGES cLUMsILY MADE.
1t was stated last evening by gentle
man in position to know who had exam
ined the stub books, that the changes in
the books had been very clumsily made
and were certainly not the work of a man
of Mr.. Waldron's ability and sagacity,
"Why," said he, ''ths stubs plainly show
where chemicals have been used, but the
marks of the original figures are plainly
discernible underneath"
ALLEGED CAUSE OF THE BoMBsHELL,
It was also stated last evening that the
alleged disclosures had been brought to
light for political reasons, in fact it was
expressly stated that the assertion had
been made that unless Alderman johnson,
who is prominent candidate for W. J..
Atwater's position on the board of public
works, withdrew it was more than prob
able that disclosures would be brought to
light about his friend Waldron, which
| would not be very creditable to him.
