cepted the invitation of the numerous
sound-money clubs of the city to address

that the Popocrats got wind of this, and
when the Republicans went to engage the
hall they found that Chairman Martin, of
the Popocratic committee, had slipped In

casion. There will, however, be a sound
money meeting in Indianapolis Saturday
night. The distinguished Carl Schurz will
