lie and Governor Mckinley Spoke to Big
Crowd in Atlanta.


Atlanta, Ca, Sept. Ex-Governor At
kinson dined half dozen governors and
twenty other guests at the Capitol City
club last night. An unusual incident
occurred during the dinner At first a
small group of men assembled outside
the club house on Peach Tree street and
called for Governor Morton. The crowd
the dinner party, stepped to window
and made a short speech to those out
side. His speech was loudly applauded,
AS he returned the crowd yelled for Nc
kinley, who they knew was inside.
"What did you say, Morton? Words,
nothing but words?" asked Governor
Mckinley, jestingly,
"Some might think so, perhaps" re-
piled Morton. II told them that you
were an eloquent orator and would
speak for me-"
''Then l SHALL" responded Mckinley,
for the cries for the Ohioan were now
increasing. He rose from the table and,
accompanied by four other governors,
walked out and spoke for several min
utes to the satisfaction of the crowd.
He was followed by General Horace
Porter, Governor Atkinson, General O.
o. Howard, Governor Werts of New
Jersey Governor Mcintyre of Colorado
and others. Each speaker eulogized At

Even Children Were Drunk.

Tower, Mimi, Sept. 22.-Disgraceful
scenes We're enacted here after Lieu
tenant w. A. Mercer, the Indian agent,
had distributed an annual appropria-
ton of $9S9 to each Indian, man, wo-
man and child, from sales of pine ON
reservations. When the agent left
town to pay off the Nett Lake Indians
those here began celebrating. The ma
iority preferred to get drunk. The law
forbidding the sale of liquor was ig-
nored by thes saloonkeepers and the
streets were soon filed with Indians
in various stages of intoxications.
Even boys eight and nine years old
went staggering through the streets.
Nett Lake Indians repeated the pro-
gram here yesterday. There has been
no serious trouble yet. Government
officers have endeayored to convict a
guilty liquor dealer, but although ev-
cry resident knows the facts a convic.
ton has never been known.

admit the signal defeat Of the British

The Morning Post will express ad-

NEW York rs DRY.


New York, Sept 22.-The excise tale
Of to-day can be summed up very short
ly. 1t was like last Sunday, rather dry
There is not doubt that the saloon
people have capitulated There Is
nothing else to do with the law as it is
written. A few saloons were open to
the friends of the keeper, and in few
instances to his enemies, for there were
some arrests
. But the saloonkeeper who braved the
law has found that it does not pay.
not only because of the penalties, if he
gets caught, but because the people
have become educated up to the fact
that if they do not want a long chase
and possible disappointment at the end
they had better get their liquor in
their houses on Sunday and this they
are doing There is also spirit of
fairness among the bibulous fraternity.
At first they demand that the saloon
keeper must take his chances and
serve them or lose their custom Now
that they find it costs the saloonkeeper
a large sum and a term in prison, if he
is caught, they have withdrawn that

home.
1t is doubtful if the city has ever seen
a mid-September day like to-day. The
heat and the excise enforcement COM
bined served to make the city look like
a desert or a town stricken with a
plague There was a large exodus from
town, the steamboats, which had not
already discontinued their trips carry
| ing large crowds. The Bowery was de-
serted. and on Broadway at O'Clock
| there were counted just twenty persone
between Thirty-fourth and Twenty
third street, and these looked as il
| they wished they were elsewhere. Few
were New Workers. The rest of the
streets were on par. and New York
| was deserted.
| It had been stated that there would
| be a special watch on the fake" clubs
| or "speak-eases, as they are called il
| other excise ridden towns. 1t was alsc
| stated that there might be some raids
| but here as in other things, the old rule
| of FIRST catch your hare" applied. o.
| one thing there is no doubt, and that il
| the police have won and New York is
! dry"
