Ohio, who is one of the heavy owners
of stock in the new concern, returned

The new factory will have capac-
| ity of 100 tons a day and will have the
latest designs of machinery for the

ity for the planting of 5000 acres in
beets.
The firm of which Mr.. Dwyer is a
member has constructed more than n
dozen factories in the West and built
the factory at Grand Junction and
three factories in Utah. The machin-
cry used in factories is manufactured

for their lives. All the cadets and
members Of the faculty escaped, and
few If any of them had time to save
their personal belongings. vhe loss
caused by the FIRE is estimated at be-
tween $4,000 and 100000. The build
ing was burned out completely and
there only remain the blackened walls
Of the front and one side of the build
ing.
A few minutes before taps, which
are sounded at o'clock, the cry of
"fre!' was raised. Smoke was issu-
ing from the chemical laboratory To-
Gated in the basement of the north
wing of the building and underneath
the recitation room. .si
With incredible rapidity the fire ex-
tended from the laboratory to the roof
and thence ate its way around to the

BEGINNING OF ARGUMENTS IN
THE SCHLEY INQUIRY CASE

Washington, Oct. 5.-The Schley
court Of inquiry reached the argument
stage at the beginning of the afternoon
session yesterday. The morning sit
ting was devoted to listening to Ad-
miral Schley and Captain sigsbee in
making corrections OF their testimony,
which had been given previously and
the Introduction by Judge Advocate
Lemly Of numerous documents bearing
upon the different phases Of the in
quiry. Admiral Schley did not make
any material additions to his previous
statements, but devoted himself largely
to the clearing up Of ambiguous points
in his eveldence.
When the court convened after recess
the argument In the case was begun,
Mr.. E. P. Hanna, assistant to Judge
Advocate Lemly, opening for the gov
ernment.
Mr.. Hanna told of the arrival Of the
flying squadron at Key West and read
number of preliminary orders to
, Commodore Schley. Speaking of the
run Of the flying squadron from Key
West to Cienfuegos, Mr.. Hanna claim
ed that the trip was made as expedi-
tiou4ly as possible.
Mr.. Hanna then read the order Of
Admiral Sampson to Commodore
Schley. dated May 10th, 1898, directing
the later to take steps to prevent the
enemy from continuing work on the
new Notifications at Cienfuegos. "It
does not appear" continued Mr.. Han
ma. that any steps were taken to pre-
vent work on these new fortifica-
tious."
Mr.. Hanna then took up the third
specification of the precept, concern
ing the cruise from Cienfuegos to San.

p.r.on u..slr. New Tabernacle.

Denver, Nov 5.-The first meeting In
the new Peoples tabernacle, at Law
renee and Twentieth, was held Sunday
morning In the basement of the church,
the auditorium not being completed.
The basement, which holds about 1000
people, was not only taxed to its full
capacity, but there were numbers
standing.
Rev. Thomas Uzzell preached the SER
mon. He took his text from Acts 27:15.
He thanked God and took courage"
This language exactly describes my
feelings" he said sixteen years ago
took charge of this work, and upon
this beautiful Sunday morning, having
moved into our handsome new quar-
ters, we have reason to thank God and
take courage. First, because we have
in some degree carried out the designs
and desires of the founder of this tab
ernacle. God has been in the work.
Secondly, we have established the
fact that an institutional church is
probably the best way to reach the
masses. At first we could not get the
people to come to the preaching SER
vice. Then we remembered that Jesus
Christ fed the hungry, healed the sick
and raised the dead. II those methods
were good 1900 years ago, they are
good to-day. So we started feeding the
poor, taking care of little children, heal
ing the sick in the free dispensary.
There was no difficulty after that about
getting crowd to hear the gospel.
Thirdly, we have proved to the
world that Institutional church work
pays spiritually, morally and financial
ly. If.all the people to whom we have
given medicine free had paid so cents
each for prescription 1t would have
cost during the years we have worked
81, 500. II every man and woman we
have secured employment for had paid
81 each for their positions, 1t would
have amounted to $265 500; SO we have
saved the poor in these two things
alone $4,000.
Fourth, for enlarging our borders
for future work." ~

tiago. The testimony was, he said.
uniform to the effect that the run was
a slow one and that 1t did not proceed
with dispatch as directed.
He quoted Captain Sigsbee's testi-
monyxto the effect that he had not told
the commodore that the Spanish Neet
was not in Santiago, and also gave Ad-
miral Schley's version Of the interview.
claiming that Sigsbee did say that the
Spaniards were not here. Captain
Sigsbee was an officer Of experience
and knew very well that the fact that
he had not seen the fleet was not evil
dence that the feet was not there. II
Captain Sigsbee had said positively
the fleet was not on the inside Com
modore Schley should have refused to
accept 1t as utterly illogical
Continuing, Mr.. Hanna said: Il
should think that II Commodore Schley
had received information that set his
mind at rest sufficiently to warrant his
turning his squadron back toward
Key West, convinced him conclusively
that the Spanish fleet was not there,
he would surely have stated that in
his next telegram to the department" /"
AT this point Mr.. Hanna took up
specification four, referring to the ret
rograde movement. He said that In
making this move Commodore Schley
had not only taken away from Santi-
ago the fighting ships of the flying
squadron, but also the scout vessels
located there by the government to
watch the mouth of the harbor.
During this time" he said, 'the
gates of the harbor were left entirely
unguarded, and 1t was not our fault
that Cervera's fleet did not get away
without being destroyed"

DENVER UNIVERSITY
NEEDS MORE MONEY

Denver, Nov. 5.-Chancellor Henry
A. Buchtel is now engaged in search
for some interested friend of the Uni
versity of Denver who will donate $40,
600 to save University hall. the main
building of the institution, from being
sold November 25th to satisfy overdue
interest to the amount of $4,000 on Il
principal Of $4,000.
This is critical period in the his
tory of the university" said Chancellor
Buchtel last evening. IF we fail to
raise this money the building will be
sold, which would be severe blow to
Denver as well as to our institution.
We must have the money at once, and
it is evident that if we can turn this
corner we will soon be out of our per-
(As forever
The facts of our embarrassment are
these: The Mack estate of Boston
holds mortgage of $4,000 on Uni
yersity hall, on which there is inter
est of $4,000 overdue for two years.
The university has paid trife over
$1,000 overdue interest in eighteen
! months, but the trustees of the Mack
estate now demand that all the. over
due interest be paid at once as well as
$4,000 principal which makes 1t neces-
sary to at once secure $4,000 by No
yember 25th.
''Of this amount we have conditional
promises which cover the $1,000 inter
est, but we still need $4,000. The uni
versity makes no resistance to the
claim, and it is making every effort to
obtain the money this week
Last year the university debt was
reduced $25,OO0, bringing it down to
$4,000. During the same period the
student body Increased in number from
630 to 87S, and this year We have 1000
students in all the schools of the insti-
tuition, and ia professors. The total
property Of the university is worth
more than $750,OOO. including twelve
buildings costing $330.O0O. In addi-
tion the university has lots at Univer-
sity Park worth more than 100000.
These are for sale at from $3.50 to $4OO
pair.
'It Is evident that If we can tide over
this crisis we will be out of danger.
From its recent growth the student
body will undoubtedly reach total of
1900 in three years. and the outlook is
in every way encouraging. But we
Etnust have the money at once"

A FURNITURE SHOW
Local Dealers Figuring On a Big
Sample Room
TO MAKE THE BUYERS JOB EASY
st. Anthony Manufacturers Already
Have Such n Scheme Well
Under Way.

Minneapolis furniture men are discuss
ing plans to improve Minneapolis as a
furniture market and increase it's reputa-
tlon as such through the western states.
Many OF the manufacturers favor the
erection OF an exposition building within
short distance of the center of the city.
Each year the number of furniture buy
ers coming to Minneapolis increases.
| There has been a satisfactory increase in
the number this year. The manufacturers
believe that some plan which will make
the visiting merchants task of selecting
his goods easier will not only be greatly
appreciated by the dealers but will in
crease the popularity of the Minneapolis
market.
The St. Anthony Park furniture men
have been working for some time on an
exposition scheme and the money for the
project was recently obtained. Building
operations will be pushed in the spring.
The st. Paul Commercial club has assist
ed to some extent in completing the pre-
liminares.
The Minneapolis furniture men do not
favor the St. Anthony Park idea for the
reason that the Park is to far from the
center of the city. They believe that the
big sample room should be nearer the
busines center of Minneapolis. Various
| furniture men have been at work on
plans for such a sample room for sew
eral weeks. The project meets with much
favor and it is believed that the details
will be completed in the spring.
Furniture manufacturers of other Min
nesota towns express a willingness to
display their goods in Minneapolis if the
local manufactu agree on plans for an
exposition, or the general display of goods
for the spring and fall trade.

THE GoLDEN-SC0TT RECITAL

A large and apprecative audience assem-
bled at the First Baptist church last evening.
to hear the third in the series of the Golden
Scott recitals. While this was not sonata
recital it was none the less enjoyable, and
proved to be one Of the best conceits ever
given here by local musicians. With the ex-
ception Of Mr.. Scott, all of the participants
were Minneapolis people, and all of them re
ceiyed the greater portion of their musical
training in Germany
The chief interest in the occasion centered
in the appearance of the 'cellist, Paul Palmer
Knapp, VINO moved to Chicago several years
ago. At that time Mr.. Knapp although
young, was a good performer on his chosen
instrument, and since then he has vastly
improved In both technique and in tonal
qualify. His three numbers last evening We're
Goltermanns Concerto in A Minor" a
SNOWY composition; Gounod's arrangement of
the Bach Ave Marla,' and Poffer's Span

| terized by broad, sympathetic tone and s.
facile technique which is masterly, but there
is tendency to slur which at times mars

repeatedly encored
Miss Amalia Rife appeared to better advan-
tage than in her temperance at Plymouth
church some weeks ago. She sang the ''Bo-
lero' from Verdi's 'fSicilian Vespers," with
artistic finish, her staccato notes and arpeg2
gioS Delng beautifully rendered. Her second
number consisted OF the familiar Bohm's

ly unfamiliar sung by a high voice, to which
it is not ait all suited, and Brahms STAND
chem dainty ballad we'll sung AS an EN-
core, Miss Rife sang Itch Lebe Dich, :"
which is still ringing in ones ears as sung
by Nordica recently.
. Mr. Scott played Bachs "Fantasie in C
Minor Sonnet by Liszt, composition
rarely heard here, and which was beautifully
rendered, and Chopin's familiar 'Scherzo in
Flat Minor" Mr.. Scott's forte is in play
ing the dainty lyric style of composition
rather than the heavy and more ponderous
and he is an adept in drawing from the piano
that singing tone so much to be desired.
His rendition of the Sonnet was mafled
somewhat by faulty pedaling.
Miss Golden did not appear in a solo violin
number, but opened the program with Lin
ding's Suite opus 81, which was beauti-
fully played with Mr.. Scott. The closing
number was D'Ortigues Trio for Violin,
Cello and Organ" played by Miss Golden
and Mr.. Knapp, with H. S. Woodruff at the
organ. This composition is very effective and
was finely rendered, forming a fitting con-
clusion to delightful musical evening The
auditorium Of the First Baptist church is
especially well adapted for concert purposes,
and 1t was an added pleasure that the recital
was given there. -Boardman.
