The progressive euchre party at the
Loan Exhibition last evening was Civ
en- as an experiment, and not without
some misgivings on the part of the
ladies. because Of the fact that it is
Lent. Its unbounded success was
therefore all the more gratifying to
them. The attendance was excellent,
and all who participated in the fasci-
mating pastime were more than
pleased.
Ten tables were required to accom-
modate the players. and the contests
were marked by a degree of interest
which was well sustained throughout.
The prizes were donated by ladies of
the committees In charge of the exhi-
bition. There were some special dec
orations, and throughout the evening
Prof. Charles Killmyer rendered
charming piano selections. The cigar
booth was open, and was literally pat
ronized by the gentlemen who were
not participating in the play. 1t is
very coy little corner, which has
become one OF the most popular
phases in the commodious store rooms.
When the bell rang for the Anal pro-
gression about eleven o'clock, it was
with considerable reluctance that most
OF the players discontinued the game.
Most delectable refreshments were
served. and the prizes were then
awarded. Mrs. Walter H. Rinehart
took the ladies' first, prize, and Mr..
Alex. Campbell. Jr., carried off first
honors among the gentlemen. Other
prize winners were Mrs. w. 4 Isett.
and Mrs. Franzell.
The special attraction for last even
ing was SO successful that the ladies
have decided upon something which
will be even more attractive to the
general public for this evening. Mrs.
George B. Caldwell has kindly con-
scented to arrange a concert programme
to be given tonight, commencing at
8:45 O'Clock. The numbers will be
contributed by the very best vocal and
instrumental soloists of the city. a
number Of whom have already con-
sented to take part. There will be
no extra charge for this special attrac-
ton, and the enterprise of the ladies
is deserving the substantial encour-
agement of the public. Following is
the programme to be rendered:

It was reported yesterday that one OF
the head movers of the new citizens tick
ct was cut off by a telegram received
from one of the State officials. who Is
grooming himself for third term. This
report could not be fully verified, but from
the remarks made by an evening paper it
seemed TO be weakening In its great work
of promoting citizens ticket From this
calling down from a state ~ofrse -
hardly be seen that tho politics OF this city
is being watched by the State officials but
only on the Republican side. It il a saA

The Register yesterday secured, from
source of the utmost reliability, in
formation of contemplated industrial
combination which casts far into the
shade all former trusts and combines
of whatever size or description. and
which, If consummated, will result in
the division Of the iron, steel and tin
manufacturing interests of the coun-
try into three elements. represented
respectively by the combine about to
be disclosed, the Carnegie interests,
and the interests held and operated
by what is known as the Standard Oil
crowd.
1t will be remembered by readers OF
the Register that month ago this
paper gave In its local columns ad-
yanced information of the contem-
plated formation of the sheet ccmbi-
| nation. This information was accu-
rate, and it may be said, came from
| the same inside source from which
the present information emanates. In
due time the sheet combination was
| formed, and INDICATED the prediction
made by the Register
The present story is much more i'm
portant and interesting. 1t means
| nothing less than a gigantic combina-
ton of the steel trust, American tin,
the hoop and wire trusts, the sheet
| combine, and fifth great manufact-
| uring interest, the name of which has
| not yet been divulged, in one great
combine, which will dispute the con-
troll of these great branches OF in
dustry with the Carnegie and Stand
ard Oil manufacturers. The REGISTERS
informant said:
II noted what you said about the
probability of Mr.. John A. Topping
being President of the new sheet
trust. 1t is true he will likely be Sc
lected, but he will only hold Office tenn
porarily. There will be gigantic
changes later on, and the big combine
will be result l know whereof
speak. And I want to say one other
thing to you. This story will be
promptly denied, officially and by au-
thority, and it will also be ridiculed.
Pay no attention to that. The plan
has been prepared, and it will be con-
summated."
What is the unknown fifth interest
in the combine?" was asked.
Il can't tell you. That Is further
along. But there is a fifth interest,
and it is big one. / know what
am talking about. and you have the
information. All I ask is to keep the
source of information secret. and
time will do the rest"
This important news has all the
characteristics of fact. for it comes
from source of the utmost RELIABLE
ity. AS the Registers informant pre-
dicted, it will be contradicted and
even ridiculed. Such things often
happen in great business deals, and
reputation of the news will. there
fore, excite no surprise. The fact that
the steel combine so easily gave up
large interests to the sheet combina-
ton lends an element of truth to the
statement here made, and augurs a
close relationship of the various man
ufacturing interests. Such a gigantic
combination, if formed, would have a
capital approximating one thousand
million dollars, and would represent
the acme of Industrial combination in
the whole world.

The joint discussion announced was
had between the candidates for the Dem.
Qeratic nomination i'm this district at
Huntington on July 18th, NJ the court

Mr.. Enloe led off followed by Trout

platform giving specific directions ON am
Issues, pending in the campaign Of 1896
that the Spanish war came on. present.
ing many new and grave questions on
which there had been no. platform ex.
pressions by the Democratic party; that
he had voted ON all those grave ard in-
portant questions as to his Judgment an
peared right, and that he was clad TO
know that the party and his constituents
had endorsed all these votes and APP
proved his position on all questions
growing out Of the Spanish war. He
thanked them tor the Kindness tney had
shown him heretofore; stated that he
did not consider that the Democrats Of
this district owed him anything, that
they had done more for him than he
could ever TO for them, but If they were
satisfied with the record and believed
that he could serve them as we'll or bet

easily elected, if nominated, lac asked
their support.
In reply to criticisms made bv Mr..
Enoe, he stated that Mr.. Enloe had ever
been represented by his friends as a very
active and attentive member Of Congress,
that to enable him to properly determine
this matter, he had examined the Jour
nal of the House for the last session of
the 53rd Congress and found that there
were IS yea and nay votes in said SEES
sion, that he also found that Mr.. Bryan
was member of said Congress, that Mr..
Bryan voted p times in said session and
was recorded as not answering G times

Mr. Sims said chat he approved every
word Of the National platform, had ey-
cry confidence that Mr.. Bryan would be
elected and from all the indications he
was confident of his own nomination.
