ELKS AT ATLANTIC CITY.
Twenty Thousand Members of the Order In Session-A Pleasant Incident Yester-
 day-A Hop Last Night.

Atlantic City, N. J., July 9.-The Elks have completely taken Atlantic City to- day, over 10000 members of that order being within the city's confines. The delegates convened in secret session this morning, in the Morris Guard armory.
 Grand Exalted Ruler Hay of Wash ington presided, and the Laurel Branch, indicative of peace, hung over the secret conclave. Meade B. Detwier of Harris burg, Pa, the grand exalted ruler of the Buffalo faction of the order was present, and T am here in the interest of har- mony," said he. When MT. Detwiler saw samuel Martin he stepped up to him and said: You're a good fighter, but the fight is over" and taking his own B. P. o. E. badge from his breast he pinned it on to MT. Martins coat.
 The meeting this morning was of an informal nature. Mayor Stoy welcomed the Elks to the city in a pungent speech. and w. G. Myers, G. l.. K, made the response.
 This afternoon the grand lodge held a session, and tonight a hop was given the visitors on the occasion here.
 The annual address of the grand ex- a1ted ruler was the principal feature of the days session. He paid tribute to the theatrical profession as the founders of the order and said all Elks should be in hearty sympathy with the members of that profession.
 The anti-Sunday legislation hes re- suited in the abandonment of Sunday meetings by all lodges except those in Philadelphia, New York and Boston.
 MT. Hays said that the grand trustees had devoted time and money to defend the order against conspiracy. He paid a glowing tribute to the late past grand exalted ruler, Wehner, of the New York lodge, and John Waters of Newport. w. G. Meyers of Philadelphia is the leading candidate for grand exalted ruler.

DELEGATES ARE ARRIVING.
The Advance Guard of the Christian Endeavor Convention Dropping Into Boston.
 The City Is Bedecked.

Boston, July 9-What might be called the spray thrown in advance of a great wave of Christian Endeavorers struck Boston today in the shape of the de- tached delegates. who came in by the regular trains There were none of the big delegations coming on special trains, which will make things lively tomorrow, but all day long detached delegates were dropping in on regular trains.
 Among the stragglers was a party of nearly 2U0 Nebraskans, who reached the union station this evening.
 Most of the Endeavors, however, came in sinsly or in groups of two or three and they kept the reception committee on the jump, for few of them knew anything about the city or where they were to go, and none were in the least bashful about asking questions. Three hundred Mich igan delegates reached the Albany sta ton shortly after noon.
 on the Chicago special which was due at the Albany station al o'clock. there were about fifty delegates, chiefly from Chicago and Utica. The Chicago and Cincinnati express, which arrived at 9:45 last evening, brought more than fifty delegates from Michigan in the after noon.' On the 1:20 train, which came in over the Fltchburg, five Idaho delegates arrived and were directed to the Claren- don street church, which is to be their state headquarters. There was also a small party from Indiana, but they pro- eeeded immediately to Newton, where they were entertained by personal friends. Three Illinois delegates also came in on this train.
 As the visitors enter the city they can not fail to be delighted at the beautiful decorations of the railway stations. In one or two cases these approach the superb, the national colors, inter- minglng finely with the crimson and white Christian Endeavor colors. In the windows of the shops throughout the city the presence of the visitors are recognized both in decorations and in the arrangements of goods displayed for sale. The decoration effect in these win dows is exquisite in the extreme.

THE CONTRACT CLOSED.
The Soldiers Colony Takes Thirty Thou
 sand Acres ill Georgia.

Atlanta, Ga., July 9.-Mr. P. H. Fitz- gerald of Indianapolis. organizer of the soldiers colony, which is to be brought to Georgia from the northwest 6O,OO0 strong, arrived here today to close the contract for 30,000 acres of Georgia farm ing lands. The land lies in Wilcox and Irwin counties, the center of the lumber region. II was secured through EX- Governor Northen of the Georgia bureau of immigration
 Mir. Fitzgerald says the statement of J. w. Lopp, that the lands are not pro life, is prejudiced, as Lopp represents a land agency at Murfreesboro, Tenn, and in no sense was an investigator for the syndicate he represents. As for this movement, MT. Fitzgerald says it is well organized, has full plans mapped out and the colony will start south in the fall He will make the first payment of $125,000 on the lands he has purchased tomorrow. He evidently has powerful backing. and the colony is materially beyond doubt. It will be composed of war veterans and others from many states of the west and northwest.

Second Day Of the Meetins--The Case of ths colored Young Woman.
 The Parade.

Asbury Park, N. J.. July 9.-The sec ond day of the National League of Amer jean Wheelmen meet here proves more enjoyable Following close upon the Denver Pittsburg and Harrisburg con tingents, which arrived yesterday came delegations from everywhere. especially large representation of the Chicago Cycle club Pennsylvania Wheelmen. Time Wheelmen. Century Wheelmen and Press Cycle club of Philadelphia.
 Today the only excursions have been run to Long Branch through Elberon. by the famous surf road, the great parade and the decision of Miss Kttie KnoXs case.
 Miss Knox is an extremely comedy col ored girl from Boston, who recently won the first prize in the Maiden cycle parade for wearing the most tasteful and artis- tic womans wheeling galb and who has been a member of the league for six years, joining long before the compar- atively recent uproar about the race question, as result of which the mem- bership is limited to white per sons alone. When Miss Knox, whose ap- pearance and dress had been objects of admiration all day, walked into the com mttee room at the local club house and presented her league card for a creden- tial badge the gentlemen in charge re- fused to recognize the card and the young woman withdrew very quietly and went her way.
 Then the discussion commenced. Nine ty-nine of every hundred members inter- viewed expressed the heartiest sympathy for Miss Knox and condemned the appa- rent action of the committee in chang ing badges. First vice-president of the League of American Wheelman, G. A. Perkins of Boston, the highest official present, said today that he considered the refusal entirely unauthorized and that were he consulted he should insist upon Miss Knox's receiving her badge al once.
 The parade. somewhat late in starting, as is usual with such affairs, was re- viewed at the league headquarters by judges to award the przes for the clubs parading the largest delegations and for the organization making the finest appearance.
 The Denver Wheel club carried off first prize for both numbers and appear ance, parading fifty-four men and women, all attired in spotless white linen suits and yachting caps. Second prize went to the Keystone Wheelmen of Philadelphia, and third to the Mercer County wheelmen of Trenton. The other clubs prominent in the line were the Pennsylvania Bicycle club, Time wheel men, Quaker City wheelmen, and Pennsylvania wheelmen. the Harrisburg Wheelmen club, McIieesport wheelmen and the Portsmouth.

WANTS A JOINT DISCUSSION.
President Warner Extends an Invitation to
 Hon. Charles s. Fairchild

Washington, July 9.-The following letter has been sent from the office of the Bmetalic league:
 Washington, July B. 1895. Hon. Charles Fairfield, Chairman of Committee on Sound Currency, Re- form Club, 52 William Street, New York
 Dear Sir: The existence of the com mittee on sound currency, of which you are chairman, with the existence at the same time of the American Bimetallic league, which l have the honor to rep resent, evidences wide diversity of opinion on the money question Each organization is laboring to educate the people on different theories of money, and each advocates a different financial policy. They cannot be both right.
 The deep interest manifested on this subject throughout the United States and the importance of arriving at the truth, that the people in the coming elections may act wisely, has suggested that a candid discussion of the question by representative men of the two or ganizations might conduce a better understanding of the truth and be highly beneficial.
 With this view the Bimetallic league re- spectfully invites the committee on sound currency to a discussion of the money question on distinctive propositions to be argued upon and to be carried on by questions and answers.
 l would suggest that no more than five nor less than three on a side be selected to conduct the discussion, to be held at some time and place as may be agreed upon.
 Should this suggestion meet your ap- proval I would suggest an early meeting to agree upon the propositions to be dis cussed and the regulations un-er which the discussion shall be conducted. Very respectfully yours,
 A. J. WARNER, President American Bimetallic League.
