The speaker then said that there were those who would rather have sign ed the emancipation proclamation than to have penned the Iliad or the plays of Shakespeare.
 It might be said of Lincoln that when he died he carried to heaven the shackle of 100000 slaves; slaves they were but he made them men, He then spoke of Lincoln's great love and pity and told how he had interfered to save the lives of many condemned prison CTS.
 Said the speaker: "If Lincoln had great pity he never let it interfere with his acts when flrmness was needed; his deeds were just without question:
 He concluded speaking feelingly about the assa ssination of Lincoln and the great loss which the country had sustained in his death.
 The next speaker was introduced as "A true friend of the club" Colonel Carles W. Pickett, who responded to the toast, The Republican Party" in place of Governor Franklin Murphy of New Jersey, who was unable to attend
 
 Colonel Pickett spoke felingly of the death of Mrs. Murphy and what great blow it had been to the governor of our sister state"
 Colonel Pickett delivered one of his eloquent speeches, during which he re- ferred to Lincoln and the other famous republicans who have made our coun- try's history.
 Rev. Watson l.. Phillips then spoke on ''The Implement and the Man. He delivered splendid speech, in which he told of the upright, honest life which Lincoln had lived-a true example of American manhood.
 pr. Phillips said that he was very glad to be present as he regarded the Young Mems Republican club as one of the most useful organizations in the city.
 The last speaker was Professor Ed ward B. Reed, who spoke on "Yale and Our National Life" He spoke in refer ence to professors in politics. saying that many thought that they were out of place everywhere but in the class room.
 Professor Reed told number of hu- morous stories and when he concluded he was loudly applauded.

tcontinued from First Pagel

of money in any denomination desired One bank has had s500.eo0 transferred by wire from New York, and large sums have been secured by several other banks. including savings institu tions. The decision of the Baltimore clearing house to resume on Monday exchanges between clearing house banks will remove much inconvenience now handicapping business houses.
 A conference will be held tomorrow between the governing committee of the stock exchange and the executive committee of the clearing house for the purpose of arranging for the resumption of relations between brokers and banks.
 The offer os a New York insurance company to lend $2. 2.000,0 900 in Baltimore for rebuilding purposes is striking illustration of the readiness of outside capital to invest in this city. This money is offered at 1-2 per cent. An other insurance company has offered to lend the city s50,0OO available at once. The stupendous tasks of clearing the piles of brick. mortar and rubbish from the streets in the fire scourged district was pushed forward to-day with mar velous energy. Baltimore street has al- ready been cleared from Liberty street to Jones' Falls. The debris is being thrown on the side and the entire mid die of the street is clear. Quite a large number of walls were demolished to- day Workmen tore down the immense columns of the Baltimore American of flee and the massive iron girders of the Baltimore Sun building.
 The United Railway had large num- Der of men at work endeavoring to straighten out the trolley wires.
 This company is also assisting to re- move money and securities from the different trust companies vaults.
 The work of ernptying the safe de- posit vaults in the ruined buildings has progressed rapidly. An escort of cav airy accompanies the wagons in which the treasures are hauled. Sharpshoot- CTS in plain clothes ride on the wagons and detectives follow closely on the sidewalks.
 Clerks Of the banks owning the val uables are also on the wagons with re- volvers. Along the route chosen the po- lice are on the alert and it is impossible to ge get within the feet of these ve- hicles.
 All the local courts resumed business to-day, Jury trials will be resumed and 1.-the grand jury will reassemble Monday next

 The sensation Of the evening. and one which brought forth most enthu- siastici demonstration from the assem- bled throng was the appearance of Miss Wentworth. the petite and splendid bareback artist, wearing a full dress Grays uniform. The long dress coat of the Gravs uniform trimmed with gold braid. the white tights always worn when riding, and Miss Wentworth was attired in white tights with the smart riding boots and the long full dress handsome coats of the Grays' uniform, and a coat to match, jauntily set on the pretty head. and she mounted on her handsome white horse, created furcre Of excitement with the audience. and they rose to their feet most entfusias- tically.
 The rest of the evenings programme was fine one. and much enjoyed by all in attendance. The side show has a number of new freaks, and side split ting attractions which last night amused many spectators.
 For the special matinee this afternoon the tickets will be fifty and twenty-five cents. and the doors will be opened at o'clock. This matinee is principally in- tended for the ladies and children, and special efforts will be male to provide for their amusement.

A. Foote, Ed ward Maroney, Edward Hayes, Captain Crafts, Judge Sheldon, Alfred Powell, George Hollacher, Frank Shea. George Mix and w. A. Beers, of this city.
 At the conclusion of the banquet President Rice, of the club, acting as toastmaster, after a brief introductory address introduced the first speaker of the evening, Mayor Studley, who de- li-3ered one of his usually witty, heart to-heart talks. Mayor Studley said that this was a most fitting occasion to fdo honor to a man like Abraham Lin coin, who was loved and honored by all. He referred to the early hardships with which Lincoln had to contend and said that as young man he only earn led dollar a day. Said the speaker: He built himself up by hard work, and during this time he overcame all ob- stacles by his force of character and rugged honesty"
 The speaker next spoke about the difficulties Lincoln had encountered in acquiring his education. His political career was next referred to and the important part which the "martyred president had taken during the civil war. Said the speaker: "There are two things which Lincoln accomplish ed during his life which will ever cause his name to be classed with the great est in the world-the Emancipation Proclamation and the great oration which he pronounced at the field of Gettysburg.
 In conclusion Mayor Studley spoke of the death which had crushed out the life of him who was so dear to all American people. When he concluded he was loudly applauded.
 The next speaker was Professor Henry Wade Rogers, dean of the Yale Law school, who responded to the toast. Abraham Lincoln'' The speaker first said that mere eloquence could hardly do justice to so important sub feet. He then said that it was pe- culiar fact that the liberator of the slaves should have been a citizen of a slave state.
 
 challenge to debate with Douglas and the wonderful oratorical and executive ability which he displayed
 Said the speaker: Tt has been said that Lincoln was not an orator. He was not, if oratorical ability is based on mere voice and form. His voice was harsh and his form awkward. but his speech was firm, free and convincing, and these were what made him one Of the geratest orators of history.
 "Circumstances of appalling difficult ties confronted him. He it was who had the country to save. When he gave his call more than a million men sprang from the soil and when they touched elbows backed by that master spirit nothing could stop them and they won imperishable victory and honors. When they had finished not one star had been removed from that banner of azure blue: secession and slavery had been crushed out: and unity and jus tice reigned,"
