Speed and cunning and 1.-THE strength ac-

The reputation Of the Indians had Ire

they couldn't drop the ball in the basket

total, while the local boys scored on a far
larger percentage OF their chances, both at

The game was hercely, though not
roughly, played. The white men went in
thinking they were beat, and worked des-
perately to stall II of. Meanwhile the red
men expected victory, and were surprised

half the Indians were ~outplayed, but in the
second the score was practically n tie, and

Jardine and Archiquette, the two star
men OF each team, were opposed TO each

Indians in speed.
As a preliminary two boys teams from

COMMERCIAL CLUBS ANNUAL
Members Gather at Banquet to Listen to
Enthusiastic Speakers.
WHAT HAS AND WHAT MAY YET Be DONE
Accomplishments of the Past and
Tasks of the Future Talked Of
by Members and Invited
Guests of the body.

one hundred men gathered about a U
SNAPPED table in the dining rooms OF the
commercial club last evening to celebrate
the annual banquet Of that organization
ana listen to the reports Of its officers.
From a point Of goodfollowship and en-
thusiasm the banquet takes precedence over
any OF the nine previous ones. The guests
OF the evening were A. W. Jenerls and E.
p. Smith.
Ihe POSTMASTER OF the evening was Pres
ident Arthur G. Smith and in his openinp
remarks, following the serving OF the
menu, he urged the club members to make
the coming year one Of great deeds and
much good accomplished.
Following the POSTMASTER the report of
the secretary, J. e. UT, was read. He
pointed with pride to the good showing
made by the club during the last year and
detailed the various projects that had been
promoted under its patronage. The club
last year entertained 1880 visitors and the
year before 1,275. Three trade excursions
were taken by the members into the dlf-
ferent sections Of the state. The proposi-
ton of irrigating public lands had been
agitated and through the influence of the
club the railroads had made many rulings
favorable to the city.
Robert S. Wilcox, chairman Of the exec
utive committee, was called upon to out
line the policy Of the club for the coming
year, which he did by saying that every
EFFORT would be made to carry out the by
laws to the letter. He asked that the club
members give their support to the dining
room, which after February 2 would be
exclusively for the use of the members and
their friends.
Some boasts for Omaha.
S. A. Mcwhorter spoke on the subject Of
Omaha as a Grain Market" Omaha, he
said, was the natural market for the great
est OF grain sections and he felt that the
city should handle its share of the grain
rather than allow Kansas City and other
markets take It.
The subject Of Municipal Ownership"
was discussed by A.. w. Jefferis. He advo-
Gated the public ownership of the water
works in this city and gave figures to prove
that by that system Omaha would be an
immense gamer.
The asked q. P. Smith for a
few observations of an outsider. Mr.. Smith
brought out the point that the men who
are doing the most good for Omaha, who
are doing the actual hard, energetic work,
are those of moderate means. There are
men who have made the city, he said,
and men whom the city has made. A
company OF the former class is worth a
whole regiment Of the latter. II only the
virus of energy for the good of Omaha
could be injected into the veins Of the
city's wealthy men there would be a Son-
derful good accomplished. OF the Guys
wealthy men there are mighty few in the
ranks Of those who are pushing Omaha"
Following the regular program the toast
master called for a few extemporaneous
speeches and a general talk resulted.

SECURITIES cHEAPENED.
Good Stocks Slump on Exchange
MIIionares Dropped Fortunes.

New York, Sept. 29.-The sacrifice
of gilt edge securities by capitalists
who had bitten off too much explain
the continued break in stocks. Phila-
delphia and Pittsburg were particu-
larly hard hit by the slump il Penn
sylvania, Steel and General Electric.
Traction millionaires dropped fortunes.
1t is rumored they turned over more
large blocks of stock to the Rookie
fellers. Amalgamated Copper was af-
fected by open cuts of quarter to half
a cent pound in crude copper at pri-
vate sale. The Rockefellers are ap-
parently utilizing various devices to
keep the ball rolling downwards. The
Standard Oil banks today were calling
large loans, thus forcing a sale of
stocks. Some think these financiers
are using the money called in to buy
stocks. A clash is reported between
these commercial giants and Morgan.
The pressure against Morgan stocks
particularly the steel trust, in which
new low records were made today has
increased the animosity against that
banker. Morgan tried supporting his
stocks for time, but succeeded poor.
