SOCIETY TURNS OUT
TO SEE THE SHOW

Socially the horse show is already a
great success. This was demonstrated
last night. when. it opened in a blaze of
red and white, the boxes filed with rep
resentative men and women from the two
cities. In spite. of the unusual GOODNESS
OF this time OF year the boxes looked
very gay and the women wore their best
and some of them were brave enough to
discard the heavy wraps they were
obliged to wear. The tent in which the
horse show is held is comfortable and
very .prettily decorated in red and white,
the horse show colors', and many of the
visiting women wore costumes in gorgeous
toilets of the same shaoes.
- The first night of the horse show has
demonstrated that society is still inter-
ested in good horse flesh and the auto
mobile by no means absorbs the attention
of the socially prominent.
The boxes were all occupied by gayly
iastically applauded their favorites and
often left their seats to walk around the
ring to obtain a closer view of the horses.

most difficult kind. Difficult as was
the retreat through the passes, under
pressure from the enemy, the march
across the open country was still more
arduous. The left and center columns
succeeded in getting all their artillery
and baggage to Liau-yang. Consid-
cradle forces of the enemy followed
tn rear guard, which maintained
stubborn resistance. Gen. Rutkovsky
remained so long, covering the extri-
cation of the guns from the mud that
his force lost heavily and the general
himself and Col. Raben, commanding
the First regiment of East Siberian
sharpshooters, were killed. Notwith-
standing all efforts it was finally nee
essary to abandon the guns. On Aug.
20, the army concentrated at Liau-
yang"
Gen. Kuropatkin details the fighting
and the retreat, as already described
repeatedly in these dispatches.

NEW YORK, Sept 1.-THE regular
sessions of the convention of the
American Bankers association began
at the Waldorf Astoria hotel today.
President F. G. Bigelow; of Milwaukee,
delivered his annual address. He said
that a true history of the association
and the work of many of its members
would probably show that it has con-
siderable influence in keeping this
country on sound money basis, and
he believed that all able and thought
full men of today, with little regard
to party, would see to it that in all
public discussion and all considerate1
public judgment the present standard
shall be deemed to be settled for good.
1--WE have greater wealth. he. said,
"and more resources than ever before,
and the way we have weathered what
has come lately in this usual period
of REIMBURSEMENT has strengthened my
conviction that the panics of 1873 and
1893 can hardly be repeated in this
country. This is partly because of the
very strong combinations in the in
dustrial and commercial world, some
of which have overStepped the mark,
but which on the whole have contribute
ed more, I think than anything else to
this favorable result
He referred to the task given this
administration at the last convention,
that of working out a plan for some
currency legislation along simple and
well defined lines and explained that,
owing to it being a presidential year,
it was futile to try to interest congress
in the matter. He added:
Opposes Emergency Circulation
With any sort of proper system
of currency, / do not believe in an
emergency circulation. / believe in a
system sound and strong and reason
able enough to meet every emergency
We ought to have to meet. A bond
secured currency never did and it new
er can respond to the demands of
trade. On the other hand, circulate
ing medium, to be efficient, needs to be
invoked promptly without displacement
of capital; to do its instant work and
as promptly to be retired. 1 by no
means advocate or believe in a credit
currency for the purpose of expansion.
We have abundant circulation. l be-
heve it is redundant today. 1 believe
large reserves, with proper tax to
accumulate a safety fund for prompt
redemption of notes of failed banks,
would work in all periods of rest and
readjuStment like the present, in
healthful contraction of issues. I
would like to think as to amendments
and changes in currency laws, that in
the not distant future the government
will begin at least to retire the green
backs, if not more than two million a
month.
while I think the limitations of the
national bank act as to strictly com.
mercial banks, in the. matter of real
estate, are wise and prudent, think,
at the same time small banks in coun-
try districts can well be allowed to
carry certain percentage of paper on
real estate security and think times OF
trial have shown in this country that
such paper, so secured, has been en-
tirely safe, and as conservative as or
binary investment bonds"

USE teeth IN FIGHT
M. E. Nichols and |. K. New.
man, Neiahbors. Quarrel

4 Malcolm E. Nichols, principal of the
Nichols Expert9 Shorthand school. En-
dicott building, was arrested yester-
day on charge Of mayhem, preferred
by Louis K. Newman, who conducts a
cigar store at Fourth and Robert
streets. The arrest of Nichols was the
result of neighborhood ill feeling
which prevailed at Mahtomedi where
he and Newman have their summer
residences.
The fight occurred Monday night
and the warrant for the arrest of Mich
OILS was sworn out yesterday In Still
water. Nichols went to Saltwater and
was released on his own recognizance,
promising to appear before the court
today IL
Monday night, when on my way
home, Newman was on the same car, %
said Nichols last night. II walked on
towards my cottage with neighbor
and Newman followed short distance
behind, carrying a lantern. I walked
around behind my cottage and New
man took a different route. When
got to the cottage went out in front
to see whether my boat was safe and
met Newman in the road. I stopped
and said Good evening, and then asked
MIN why the nelghbOrS had shown Ill
feeling towards me and my family.
and he said he did not know. Then I
said that it would lead to trouble and
he struck me over the head with the
lantern. We clinched and fell to the
ground and he got my finger between
his teeth. The pain was great and /
told him to let co. but he refused to
do SO. Then caught his cheek and bit
1T. He then released my finger and
asked me IL I had enough. Not wish
ing to fight longer, 1 said had and
we got up.
He then shook hands with me. and
helped me search for my glasses. which
had fallen off. He lit several matches
and waited while Il went into the house
to get a. light We made up then and 1
thought the affair was over. I was sur
prised to see that the warrant had been
sworn out. ands believe that Newman
was induced to take the action by neigh
bors.''
Newman gave a version of the encoun-
ter which differs from that of Nichols.
He said Nichols accosted him and said
he wished to have it tout with him. -
Newman replied that he would just as
soon meet him then and there as at any
time and that theyecfinched Immediately.
He said that in the scuffie Nichols bit him
in the cheek. The wound was cauterized
and he was at the store yesterday with
a bandage on part of his face.
