Cedar Rapids, Jan. 14.-Today wit
nesses the closing Of the first part Of
the engagement between the liquor In
terests Of Cedar Rapids and tho Bush
ness Mems Temperance Association.
The petition Of the saloon men. II filed
at all, must be filed today. II It Is not
filed the saloons will 60 out OF busi-
ness next July. and no more petitions
can be circulated this year.
The petition will be filed all right.
The saloon interests have been working
night and day for the past week or so.
and securing the entire city for sigma
lures. They claim to have enough
names. but the exact number on the
petition will not be known until late
today.
The citizens backing the saloons
brought c. A. Windle, OF Chicago. to
the city last night. Windle made a
talk at the opera house to large audi
ence. He devoted considerable OF his
talk to attacking Billy Sundays posi-
ton on the saloon issue. He declared
Sunday to be a theological backyard.
With the filing Of the petition there
will now come the battle for the re-
moval of names. The temperance ele-
ment will leave no stone unturned to
induce men who have signed to remove
their names. A member OF the temper
ance organization declared last night
that they already had the assurance
from many petition signers that they
wanted to withdraw their names. In
addition to trying to get signers to
withdraw, the temperance men Will
closely scrutinize every name.
All sorts of rumors have been float
ing about, and both sides have been
much exercised over some Of the rum
ors that have been in the air. In addi-
ton there has been talk OF boycotting.
altho on the whole the campaign here
has been more free from bitterness than
In most cities.
One Of the rumors circulated yester-
day was that the saloon men had gone

held this morning at 10 o'clock in the
office of Judge J. G. Slonecker with . 8
persons present. According to L. c.
Betz, the receiver, who made a report,
the total amount of assets is S19,-
532.72. The liabilities are just under
$4,000.
L. c. Betz was directed to collect
the book accounts from which it is
believed $1,000 viii be realized, and 10
sell the fixtures and stock on hand
either through cash transactions or by
calling for sealed bids.
The value Of the eggs in storage at
present prices was given as $S.257.5O,
but as another $4,000 can be realized
through their sale by holding them IN
til midwinter, the money affairs in
connection with the case will not be
settled until that time. This would
bring the total assets up to. about
$4,000. The creditors are expecting
to receive more than rs cents on the
dollar
