day. Dawn Monday will disclose the
show in it's completeness, fascinating
enough to engage the attention for the
entire day of the woman who comes
down town in the morning, no matter
how early.
Annual Fall Opening.
It will be the annual fall opening for
all the shops. Heretofore the various
stores have acted independently of each
other, each one trying to get hold of
its fall goods first and hold its opening
first. The result was that a shopper had
to come down town on several different
days to take in the openings at all the
shops. Now the shops have agreed on
the time of opening and each has waited
until the other is ready, so that each
merchants display is as complete as he
can make 1t. The show will continue
throughout the week.
Not only will the show be a great con-
venience for local shoppers, but for those
from other towns, who can see in one
visit all that the various stores are Of
ferlng in the way of new styles. 1t is
expected that the show will bring many
women to Omaha to shop. Those who
want to see the Ax-Sar-B festival can
wait a few days, but those who get in
the first day or two will have the whole
stock from which to select.

KIMMEL AND HUNT QUARREL
Former Omaha Man and Convict
Nearly Come to Blows.
HUNT CALLS HIM AN nMPosToR
Man of Mystery. Keeps Up His
Claims at the Home of Relatives
at Niles but Hunt Again
DenOunces Him.

Violent quarrel between Andrew j.
Hunt of Arkansas City, Kan, formerly
of Omaha, and the man of mystery at
Niles, Mich, who claims to be a former
associate of Hunt, marked the end of
their interview at Niles, according to a
report that reached Omaha Saturday.
Hunt went to Niles to see Kimmel. de-
claring that a few minutes conversation
with the man OF mystery would enable
him to tell positively whether or not he
was Kimmel. Previous newspaper re-
ports already have told of the interview.
The man recalled much Of Kimmel's as
sociations with Hunt but not all. Here
is the end of the Interview at the home
Of Kimmels cousin, Harry Fox:
Tell me something about Arkansas
CITY," said Hunt.

room over the bank to a railroad lodge =

hound. You are the man who came to
see me in Matteawan and in Auburn and
went away and lied about what occurred.
You know am George Kimmel You are
here to try and trap me. not to try and
give out the truth. Get out. Why was
this man allowed TO get in here to see
me? He means only to practice deceit
refuse to talk further with you. You
IL have to go afoot."
The man sank into his chair ex-
hausted and quivering. Fox and his wife
tried to soothe him, Hunt said:
you are not George Kimmel, You are
an impostor You have been taught some
things about Kimmers past life just like
parrot is taught. But when l, who
knew Kimmel intimately, come here to
question you, you pretend to be angry
and outraged You are fraud"

The man lying in the Morris chair
sat up again and pointed his shaking
hand at Hunt.

permanent tariff commission, and shall
urge upon the congress, as long as it is
my function to do so, the establishment
by law of such a commission.
More Reports in December.
But, meantime. congress has enabled
me to organize the present commission.
They have shown by the work already
done how thoroughly their future work
will be, and they have demonstrated by
what they have done that the material
which they will place before the congress
and the executive In December with ref
erenoe to schedules X and THAT is, on
woolens and on cottons-will be of a
more valuable character and one from
which more valuable conclusions can be
drawn than any report OF the kind ever
submitted to any legislative body. Sched-
ule X is the most complicated schedule
in the whole range Of schedules. Seized
ule /, textile schedule, is. except for
the difficulty connected with the raw ma
terlal In Schedule K, equally troublesome
and complicated and hard TO understand.
When those reports shall have been SUBJ

try OF textile fabrics, and giving a basis
upon which proper reduction can be
made in either schedule, it will be my
duty and my pleasure to recommend to
congress such a reduction. Meantime,
attacks upon the board as one whose
Judgment is not worthy Of consideration
are born not Of candid consideration
Of their previous work. not Of a frank
acknowledgment of the ability of the
various members OF the board TO do work
that they are charged TO do, but they
come from the thoughtless heat Of pol
itieal controversy, and ought to have no
weight with unbiased friends Of the pub
lie veal.
Il can not more titungly close these
remarks than by quoting the conclusion
| OF an impartial and competent committee
OF the tariff commission association after
full and personal investigation of the
work OF the tariff board. as follows;
"'In conclusion our committee finds
that the tariff board is composed Of able,
impartial and earnest men, who are de-
| voting their energies unreservedly TO the
| work before them; that the staff has
been carefully selected for the work in
view, is efficiently orgaaized and directed.
and includes number of exceptionally
competent technical experts; that
the work OF the board. vast and intri-
cate in detail, Is already highly organized.
well systematzed, and running smoothly;
and that congress and the people can now
await the completion Of that work with
entire confidence that it is progressing
as rapidly as consistent with proper
thoroughness and that IL will amply
justify all the time and expense it eatails.

doubt as to the expedleney Of maintain
