Under the ciceronage of o. P. Pratt,
Fryar is said TO have emerged from

back and reincarcerated, together with
his Keeper, in an upper room at the no.

the committee will bring to light some

will be of wreck and ruin for these

The man Fryar. of whom Law spoke
in his speech, was kept under cover all

SENTIMENT FOR M'cUNE.
Already Very Generally Exonerated
By Public Opinion.

If public opinion counts for aught,
and it generally counts for a good deal,
A ". McCune is already exonerated
from the bribery charges brought
against him on Saturday by Represen-
tative Law
in themselves the charges made are
SO fiimsy," said q well known business
man yesterday, and so apparently I'M
supported by any evidence that they
are very hard to swallow 1t seems
pFeposterous. too, that a man of Mr.
NcCune's intelligence and ability would
arrange a transaction OF that kind in a
public drug store and consummate it
on q street corner where 500 people
might witness il. l cannot believe it
at ALL"
And this seemed to be the general
sentiment everywhere. The story Of Mr.
Law was discounted somewhat also be-
cause of the absurdly low price which
be alleged was paid him. That a man
of Mr.. McCune's wealth would go out
for the purpose of buying "A vote with
only $50 in his pocket Seemed to most
people beyond the bounds of belief.

A BRIGHTER VIEW.
Story of Discharge of Agents Finds
Few Creditors.

Little credit is given to the report
that the eastern roads contemplate
wholesale discharge of their freight and
passenger representatives in the west,
and the dispatch from Denver stating
that such action is probable is not be-
lieved in Kansas City, says the World.
1t is remembered that one or two rail-
roads did something Of the kind few
years ago, but it was not a universal
movement The result at that time was
disastrous to those lines which thought
they could get along without repre-
sentatives in this territory.

Innings this fall will be of the most
vivid hues.
The newest foulard gowns are the
purple ones.
White shirt waists of thin materials
with insertions of lace are replacing
the ungainly white piques.
Crepons in new designs are still in
favor. A new weave in crepon has q
black silk thread, twist-thread in
green or blue, and the effect is very
pretty.
The fastidious girl has numerous
sets of skirt-studs and sleeve-links to

Wells with borders of chantilly in
both black and white are always be-

are to be worn with sailor hats.
Brown wells are said to enhance the
complexion.
An abundance of jet, filigree,
