ever had passed between Williams and
Dickinson passed before ever I had any
thing to do with 1t.
"How do you account for Feehan.s not
having signed this agreement apportloning
the stock? His name does not appear as
a signature"
"As matter of fact. it was not neces-
sary for any one to sign that agreement
but Mr.. Williams because the franchise
stood in his name"
''Did you hear, at any time, from any,
body, that the name of Feehan stood in
that contract, as dummy, to represent
the interests of General Dickinson?"
II don't know whether Mr.. Feehan was
a dummy or not. | will say this, however,
that. if General Dickinson did have an in
terest in that contract, l see no reason
why he should not. 1t certainly never
was understood by me that any interest
was to go to the Board of Supervisors. l
went before the board when the members
met as committee of the whole to con-
slider it, and thought at the time and [
now think that the franchise should have
been granted; but, as | consider it Of
doubtful value, [ now feel very little in
terest in it. and, since the application was
rejected, l have done nothing further
about the matter"
did you ever say anything to General
Dickinson about his having an interest in
the opposition bid, presented by Lang?
Some time after both bids were re-
jected he happened to be in the office and
incidentally stated that he had been ac-
cused of having an interest in that bid,
but that it was not true. That was all that
was said
William H. Chapman, the attorney who
is to bring the suit on behalf of Williams,
demanding that the franchise be granted
to him, stated yesterday that the only way
in which he had heard Williams speak of
General Dickinson was to refer to him as
having performed some legal service in
connection with obtaining the franchise.

This letter of Ryan'S was given out TO
the daily papers and was read by MISS
Arnes Wilson of No. 10 POntotoc streed.
Miss Wilson was greatly interested, De-
cause a brother of hers had been aoSC
since cbildhood and the thought struck
her that possibly Richard Ryan. was ller
dong lost brother, or rather halt-Drouier.
Miss Wilson went to the police station
and laid her case before Chief Mosely.
She said her father had been engaged an
steamboating with James Lee, ST. lie

sive nation. 1t did very wei then, but
the growth of civilization and commerce
had since demanded a change in the
standard That standard should be gold.
MIR. Horr closed by thanking Mr.. Har-
vey for the uniformly courteous treat
ment which he had received from his
opponent during the discussion.
Mr.. Harvey, rising for his closing adj
dress. said he accepted the present from
Mr.. Horn of the Chinese coins. He OBJ
iected. however, TO the reference Mr..
Horn had made to the silver coin. The
limited States was the chief producer of
silver. Until 1873, it was the most
sacred metal of our coinage: it was the
measure of all values. In 1873, it was
struck down as Caesar was by the dagger
of an assassin. The gold standard men
had set up a standard founded on
crime as a standard for the morals of
the Nation. The metal in the coin given
him by Mr.. Horr symbolized purity,
virtue and grand honesty.
Taking up the closing argument, Mr..
Harvey said he wanted to encourage the
Respondent man who contemplated sui
eide. Relief was at hand and prosperity
would again come to the Nation. He
declared that with the growth of the
money power came increase of salaries
and corruption. 1t was the same in all
the nations. In 1873, 1900 bushels of
wheat would have paid the salaries of the
president of the United States-$25 900.
Today it would take 10000 bushels of
wheat TO pay President Cleveland's sal
airy of $4,000. He then proceeded to
denOunce the presidents foreign and
financial policy and declared that the
friends Of free silver were fighting the
battle of the people the world over.
On their efforts depended the liberty
of the masses. Gold had driven the
into its last stronghold.
There was nothing beyond except the
islands of the Pacific. He declared that
a second declaration of independence in
the United States was needed and pro-
ceeded to recount the story of the signing
of the declaration of independence in
Philadelphia and the ringing of the bell
by the old Waterman with much dramatic
effect.
The answering of questions was the
final act in the controversy 1t should
be said that the attendance at the SEES
sions was by card only, and was limited
to the capacity of the hall, which was
about 200. This space was generally
fully occupied.

nIIE NELEGRAPHERS
Yesterday Was the Day Scheduled for
Something to Drop.

Memphis, Tenn, July 2S.-Thrty days
ago President s. w. Fordyce of the
Cotton Belt railroad ISSUED AN order abb
rOgatng the agreement that had been
made between the company and the Order
of Railway Telegraphers. All telegraph
operators belonging to the order who are
employed by THE Gould system were una
bic ITO account for this sudden procedure
but suspected at once that movement
was being PLANNED by 1.-THE railroad officials
THAT would ultimately prove detrimental
to them. They held a consultation and
appointed "a committee. which made siren
UouS efforts to have the order reScinded
but President lFordyce was Obdurate, say
ing THAT the order would prove as benefi-
cial to 1.-THE operators as it would to the
railroad company and the contract which
had existed had mterfered with discipline.
About a week ago, Grand Chief Powell
of THE Order of Railway Telegraphers
was summoned. proceeding to Tyler, Tex,
where he has been holding conferences
with the officers of the Cotton Belt road
in the hope of adjusting the matter sat
iSfactorly to both sides. Today was
the date set for the order abrOgating THE
contract to take effect. Up to u late
hour tonight no word had reached the
officers of the company of an action on
the part of the operators looking to the
resistance of the measures decided upon
10y the company.
