Afternoon Session


The commissioners met again at 1:SC
o'clock, and at once proceeded with the
hearing of the Elite saloon matter.
George B. Taylor, manager of the An
heuser, testified that Keith, the man
who did the shooting, and another man,
were in that place earlier in the after
noon. They had been drinking, and
were evidently looking for trouble. He
had had some words with Keith, but got
him out of the place without disturb
ance.
officers Tyler and McLain both tes-
titled that the Elite saloon was no more
disorderly than other saloons. They
had never seen any disreputable charac-
ters hanging about the place, and had
never been called into the place on ac-
count of disorder. On the night of the
trouble both Anderson and the bar
keeper gave them all the information
they could about the affair, and directed
them to the place where Keith lived.
They had never had occasion to make
an unfavorable complaint against the
saloon.
Nick Wynne, clerk of Off & Vaughn's
drug store, on the corner of Spring and
Fourth street, was familiar with the
character of the saloon. 1t was as good
as the average saloon, neither better nor
worse. He had never seen any disturb
ance in the place.
Mr. Anderson said that Messrs.
Vaughn and Roth had intended to be
present in his behalf, but they could not
get away from their business. He then
gave in detail his connection with the
place, and his efforts to sell it, and said
that If the commissioners revoked the
license il would entail loss of a least
s2500 upon him. He referred to his long
residence in the city and his career as a
saloon man, saying that he had never
before had any trouble of the kind.
After ]. I. Cochran, liveryman whose
barn adjoins the saloon, testified that
he had never heard any disturbance in
the place, Commissioner Wyman moved
that the commission take no further ac-
tion in the matter at the present time,
which motion was seconded by Commits
sioner Wyman.
Considerable discussion followed as to
what position this left the matter in.
Commissioner Preuss then moved as a
substitute that the previous action of
the commission in revoking the license
be rescinded, which motion was Sec
onded by Commissioner McLain.
This brought forth a vigorous protest
from Messrs. Forman and Wyman, who
claimed that this action was not treat
ing the chief. on whose report the license
was revoked, with proper respect
The chief was sent for but before he
arrived the mayor was called away to
attend a conference of the park COM
missioners and committee of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers association.

A WOMAN ACTED AS RABBI
hrs. Hannah Solomon Occupied DR.. Hirsch's
Pulpit In Chicago

Mrs. Hannah q. Solomon, the first wo-
man in the history of Judaism to act as
rabbi, filled the pulpit of Sinai temple
Sunday morning. 1t could have hap
pened in no Jewish temple but DIR.
Hirsch's, and the congregation predicts
that the incident will put it farther from
orthodoxy than any other innovation
which it has been its pride to make. It
makes Sinai and its leader the talk of
the Hebrew world.
The temple was filled. There were
more heads of families than young men,
patriarchs who had never dreamed that
their creed could get so far from the
traditions as to tolerate a woman as
teacher. 1t was accepted as a new page
in modern Judaism-as remarkable as
the incident which allowed a Catholic
bishop to pray before the council of Jew
ish women during the congress of relig-
ions. President Fisher, the head of the
congregation, sat on one side and Prof.
Kohn of Northwestern university sat on
the other side.
President Fisher introduced "the
daughter of the congregation.
This Incident makes history" he said.
TT is the first time in all the history of
our worship that such a scene as this
has been possible. 1t is a triumph for
womanhood.''
Mrs Solomon then came to the pull
pit, unrolled her manuscript, proceeded
much as DR.. Hirsch might have done,
save that she read, and was thus unable
to walk about the platform and talk
while leaning over the tops of the big
chairs. She made the work of the coun-
ell of Jewish women her theme. She was
epigrammatic and logical.
The woman question is settled as far
as this country is concerned" she said.
1T is all over, but there are also great
many men who do not think the civil war
is over. They have right to both views.
There is no law against ignorance of any
kind.
1T was necessary for Judaism that
women organize and save the traditions
of Judaism. The women confessed they
were ignorant of the traditions and, the
mothers being ignorant. there was but
little hope that the coming generations
would know of them except as memories.
The ceremonial beauties were becoming
a closed book. 1t is our plan to open 1t
and save the beauties.
1T has come to pass that the world Is
asking whether any religion is worth
saving. There are many who have
lived Alright without religion, but there
are few who can live Alright without it's
influence. 1t is the Jewish mothers who
are going to save the traditions of the
ages. the prophets and the philosophers
of Judaism. Women are more emotion
al than men. and religion is the science
of rational emotionNism
Jewish women have organized for
progress. They want to change the edu-
cation Of the three RS to the three HIS
Head, Hand and Heart. The women
of today cannot afford to live as their
grandmothers did.
Where virtue is education enhances;
the greater the virtue the greater the
demand for education and the greater the
education the greater the woman.

away. You will find her sleeping on a

Little Chance OF I est Case Being Made a,

Notwithstanding the expose of the
methods and operations of the Second
street bucket shop. where machine-made
quotations are reeled off to order, caus-
ing fluctuations in evanescent value
of suppositious mining stocks. the con-
cern still runs with wide open doors,
and from indications will probably con-
tinue to do so, for all the authorities in
tend doing in the matter.
1t has been learned on good author
ity that Preacher Frank" Burch, the
proprietor of the game, has seen both the
city and district attorneys offices, and
from them obtained an opinion that he
is within the pale of the law and can
not be molested by the police
Immediately upon his attention being
called to the establishment through the
columns of The Herald, Chief Glass de-
tailed detectives to investigate and re-
port upon its operations. This was done
and the facts have been laid in his hands.
When Burch began to fear that his
lucrative business might be inter-
fered with by the authorities, he con-
suited the city and county officers above
mentioned and laid before them his
proof that he was really dealing In
stocks instead of nothing more tangible
than thin air. He produced papers
purporting to represent shares of stock
in the Dallas, Carson. Sydney and Har-
ward mines in Colorado. also power
of attorney, duly attested by a notary,
signed by the president and secretary
of the companies, which officers are the
same in each case, delegating to him
the powed to buy, sell or negotiate
shares in the quartette of mines.
He ella ed that he was doing a bona
fide business. and. 1t is said obtained
from the attorneys an opinion that he
could not be molested. The police de-
tectives have been so busy with a num-
Der of important cases that as yet the
facts they have gathered have not been
laid before the district attorney. II 1t
is true, az stated, that that officer has
already decided that Burch cannot be
disturbed, he will undoubtedly refuse to
issue complaint upon which an arrest
and test casp could be made, and the
bucket shop will proceed on its way, If
not legalized, at least tolerated and
condoned.
In this connection ii may be men,
toned that last fall an arrest was made
by the police of F. D. Black. proprietor
of the largest pool room in the city, and
who does big business In placing COM
missions on races. The trial was made
a test case. and briefs on both sides were
filed by counsel nearly two months ago.
Up to date no decision has been rem
dered in the matter. and should the de-
cision when given be adverse to the city
ordinance, declaring it unconstitutional
to discriminate as to selling pools on
races run in this city and those run in
other places, it will open the gates to
a number of smaller places which would
undoubtedly quickly spring into ex-
istence

he had not transgressed any of the pro-
prieties In appealing to the council and
the park commissioners to have his
numbered star restored.
Commissioner Forman, on the other
hand, claimed that he had been appoint
ed a special officer by the previous
board when he was elected park super
intendent, and was therefore in that ca
pacity subject to their orders. If this
was not the case he had no right to
star of any kind, and somebody had been
derelict in their duty. Commissioner Wy

of his colleague, Messrs. Preuss and Nc
Lain saying nothing.
The record was looked UP and it was
found that Mr.. Carey had been duly
elected a special officer and on the vote
being taken the motion prevailed, only
Mayor Snyder voting against it.

Republican
Prospects !!

At no time since the close Of
the civil war have the prospects
of the Republican party 10 the
South been as bright as at pres
emit; after the large defections
from the Democratic party of
populism and the increased de.
velopment of manufacturers in
the principal States South Of
Mason and Dixon's line. To the
student of American politics it
must seem somewhat surprising
that Kentucky and Maryland,
two Democratic strongholds,
should have Republican govern
ors, and that in Tennessee at the
last Presidential election the Re-
publicans should have polled 45
per cent OF the total vote in the
State, while they had SO per cent
of it IN Georgia, 50 per cent in
West Virginia, 46 per cent in
Virginia, and Al per cent in
North Carolina, besides polling
1877. 600 votes for Mckinley and
Hobart IN Texas. aState in which
the Republican vote in 1880 was
only $1,000; in 1883, $4,000. and
in 1892, $1,000. The fact is that
the Republicans have been in
creasing rapidly in numbers and
influence in all the States of the
South. particularly in those on
the Southern border, with the
exception of two, South Caro-
lima and Mississippi, in which,
by constitutional provision, there
is a large Acknowledgement of
colored voters. The chief cause
of this change is the growth of
the Populist party, which is a
white mans party. and has with
drawn many voters from the
Democratic candidates without
getting many recruits from Re
publican ranks. In no Presi-
dental election since the close of
the civil war have the Republi-
cans polled SO large an electoral
vote in the Southern States as
they did last year. Mr.. McKln-
ley received 10 electoral votes
in Kentucky, 8 in Maryland. and
6 in West Virginia, which, with
8 in Delaware, make a total OF
90 in what was formerly the solid
South. In three States North
Carolina, Virginia, and Tonnes.
see-the contest between the
Democrats and the Populists on
the one haDdand the Republicans
on the other was very close. and
the severance of friendly politi.
cal relations between the Demo
Gratis and the Populists in these
makes more probable than here
tofore Republican success.-N.
