Mayor Harrison Serves Notice on the
G. a. r.

Mayor Harrison Serves Notice on the
G. A. r.
Chicago. July 1S.-The Post today
saws:
1.-The fact that William ]. Bryan had
not been invited to attend the Grand
Army encampment to be held here next
month was brought TO the attention of
Mayor Harrison today, and the mayor
at once addressed a letter to the en-
campment committee, pointing out the
omission.
Unless at the meeting Of the G. A. R.
which President Mckinley is certain
to attend, the same attention is paid to
the presidential candidates of both par
ties, Mayor Harrison said the encamp-
ment would pass without the official
recognition of the city"
Regarding reports that the G. A. r.
encampment is to have a political as
pect, Executive Director Harper said
tonight: There is absolutely no poll
tics on the coming campaign. Never in
the history of this organization has
there been an annual encampment TO
which the president of the United
States has not been invited as the
chief executive of the nation.
When the formal invitation was Sent
by General John c. Black. chairman bf
the committee on invitation to Presi-
dent Mckinley, a similar invitation
was sent to w. ]. Bryan. The president
has accepted. Mr.. Bryan Immediately
acknowledged the receipt of the invi-
tation, but did not give a definite re-
ply"

Renegade Democrats Will Go Bodily
to Republicans.

New York, July 13.-A special to the
Times from Washington says: THE
gold Democrats will not put a ticket
in the field this year." said w. D. By
mum, chairman of the gold Democratic
executive committee in 1896. I'VE can
not get our electors on the official bal
lot in New York, because no votes
were cast for the party candidate for
governor in 1898, and the state law re-
qulreS that certain number of votes
shall have been cast for state officers
in the preceding election before the
nominees of any party can go on the
official ballot in the pending contest.
Our party organization in New York
was abandoned two years ago, menu
berS of our party voting other tickets.
The only way we can have our can
didateS for electors put in the official
ballot is by petition of a certain num-
Der Of voters in each cOunty-an ex-
ceedingly difficult thing to do in the
present case, as the members of the
gold Democratic party have affiliated
themselves with one or the other of
the old parties on the issue
New York is the one state where
our ticket might do the Republicans
some good, and if we cannot get in on
the official ballot there is little use of
nominating a. national ticket The
new Australian ballot laws in other
states also operate against independent
movements

LENTz CALLS ON BRYAN.
Wants the National Headquarters tt
be at Columbus.

Lincoln, Neb., July 13.-Congressman
]. j. Lentz and z. c. Philbry of Column
bus, o.. were with Mr.. Bryan a few
hours this afternoon, leaving for the
east tonight. Congressman Lentz is
anxious to have the Democratic head
quarters removed from Chicago TO Co
lumbus, and that, it is believed, was
his principal mission. Mr.. Bryan would
not discuss the matter after his visit
ors had left.
Democratic National Committeeman
Tarpey OF California was another Wis
itor today.
The date, Aug. 8. on which Mr.. Bryan
is to receive the official notification of
his nomination by the Democrats is
satisfactory to him. 1t is doubtful if
he will leave Lincoln much before that
time, though he does not himself know
just what his programme will be. He
does not, however. expect to make any
speeches in advance of his notification
Mr.. Bryan is spending much of the
time in his library with his stenogra-
pher, working on material for the cam
paign. Charles A. Towne has been with
him part of the time. A number of
state politicians called on Mr.. Bryan
this morning.

GO TO HIGHEST COURT.
Mcpherson Says He Will Take His
Case TO Washington.

Although J. Gordon Mcpherson, the
COlOred gentleman who has figured so
largely before the public for the past
few months, has gone over to Fort
Duchesne and again enlisted in the
army, he has not been lost to notoriety.
He is gong to carry his case against
the jurors in the Benbrook case all the
way TO the supreme court of the United
States.
He was beaten in the case which was
taken TO the supreme court of Utah but
that does not satisfy his craving This
was the case which he brought against
Edward McCarrick, the mining man,
who was chosen as a juror IN the case.
MIR. McCarrick likes a negro in a bust
ness way. but he refuses to have anV
social connections with him. When J.
Gordon Mcpherson was put on the jury
he protested so hard that not only was
the negro taken off but McCarrick
went too.
Mcpherson sued him for $1,000 for
damage to Ills character and Just as
soon as he won that case he was to
begin suits against the other eleven
jurors. But he did not win the case.
for it was thrown out by the supreme
court. a telegram was received from
him by a well known attorney yester-
day in which he said Aat he would APP
peal his case to the supreme court of

CHINESE CONSUL APPEALS.
Asks Americans TO Put Down Anti
Monaghan Prejudice.


San Francisco, July 13.-Consul Cen
eral HO Vow, representing the i'm
perial government of China in this city
has sent to the chamber of commerce a
communication expressive af his regret
at the outbreaks in China which have
broken the cordial relations of the two
peoples. In his communication Consul
General Vow says: Happening as
the occurrence has at a time when the
United States showed itself to be re-
covering from past reverseS in the trade
OF China, and when the future was big
with promise for an immense business
between this coast and China. il is ex-
ceedingly unfortunate that these con-
ditions Of growing favorableness should
be in any way menaced by anything
transpiring in China.
This rapid and vicious onslaught in
discriminatory made by the mObs of
certain districts of North China upon
the western peoples must for the mo-
ment stultify and stagger trade, but in
the turmoil IL is comforting TO know
that the imperial government has at
all times been earnest in its desire to
suppress the assailants.
1.-THE government of China, as much
as it may be misrepresented i'm the
west. is favorable TO progress, and is

guided officials can swerve or crush 1t

instant's reflection.
san Francisco should, and by your
help, be the commercial entrepOt of

the in auences which attend it is, and

all anti Monaghan prejudice and feel

Question of Water Rates.

The waterworks committee undertook to
wrestle With the question of water rates
under this new meter system. for large
consumers. Superintendent Hines present
ed schedule of rates, but nothing was
done with it. A communication was read
from Superintendent Welby of the Rio
Grande Western, which said that a rate
of cents per gallon per year for $1,000
gallons would be fair rate. This would
make a cost of about $1.S09 per year for
$1,000 gallons.
There was a motion to raise the price
to 81 cents, and an amendment to cents.
but the committee found that it was not
sufficiently familiar with the subject to
go into the matter of rates thoroughly.
II was referred 70 the city engineer with
instructions to gather data of the prices
paid for large quantities of water in other
cities.
Superintendent Hines said that as a
matter of fact the railroad used much
more than 10000 gallons of water per day.
He said that the Short Line uses even
more than the Rio Grande- There are two
mains one four inches and the other six
inches, running into a tank of the Short
Line, and he said that most Of the time
when the tank is full, the water runs to
waste. The uses of meters would stop
this waste.

they commenced to eat, he said:

After dinner he discovered Private
Robinson slowing several bottles of
champagne away in a bag. Highly in
censed, the captain asked him what he
meant by such conduct.
why, sir, said Robinson, I'm only
obeying orders.
'Obeying orders" roared the captain.
What do you mean?''
Yes, sir, was the answer. You told
US to treat the dinner like an enemy, and
