Eesponm By Orand Master Workman, Neal, the Hou. J. L. Kobinson antP^' Several Others. v..

was at an early hour Wednesday

that -Mayor Fred A. floss turned over" the

keys to the city of Terre Haute to the '/pa-

cient Order of United Workmen and Assured them that the city belonged to them

i£ long as they wished to remain in it.*,

Sp* £6terday marked the 23th ariniversary of the order in Indiana and the TCdgte-of

Terre Haute made the celebration of /the ivent one long to be remembered. There

was nothing lacking. The weather was ifer-

feet and as the members of the order, came gf\ from all directions there was nothing for tbe aK

members of the Workmen to do but' enjoy

the day to the fullest. At midnight last night the last, work of the order had been performed the last speech detailing what the ordef had accomplished had been made, the parade was over,, and there was nothing left for the members W 't0 do but make merry at the dances. They y-,/-* did this, and it was not until an early hour this morning that the happy gatherings broke up and the people went home to dream of the 29th anniversary of -the A. O. U. W. held at Terre Haute on Wednesday, October 27, 1897.

With the first streaks of dawn yesterday* morning the members of Wabash No. 1, Teire Haute No. 2, Schiller No. 4, Friendship No. 66, Prairieton No. 16, West Terre j-, Haute No. 84, Degree of Honor, Adia, No., y, Degree of Honor, Star, No. 15, Telre

Hauie Legion No. 1 and Select Knights of the A. O. U. W., were to be found up and preparing for the day's festivities. Committees from the different lodges went to the railroad stations and^escorted the members of the A. O.' U. W. and their wives to the headquarters and to Germania Hall where the Degree of Honor members were -1, serving dinner. Mrs. Mary Hanrahan managed the service and her chief assistants were MesdRmes Emma Ramme, Louise

Wrinsenreed, Marie Mansholt, W. M. Ahrens, Richard Houseman, Alice Hampton, Joseph Leinberger, Elizabeth Hamptdn, I^ouise Becker, Margaret Morlock and Ida "Taylor. The tables on the stage were reserved for the chief officers.

There was no lodge business transacted during the morning hours for the reason that the trams bringing the delegates to the city were coming in. The banner delegation was handled by the E. & T. H., and the first special train to reach here from «£he«fltfUh: carried twenty-one coaches and 1,400^ people. This was closely followed by the second tilvision, which reached here about noon, with fifteen coaches and 400 people". The cars •were gayly decorated from trucks to«ventilators.

There was not a train run into the city but had one or more bands on board-' and when the parade lined up at 2:40 in the afternoon, the air was full of sweet musid The parade, like all parades, was not well managed. Indeed, it was impossible to man7 age it. The delegates from this city and that city were talking to one another and were so thoroughly mixed up that the marshals finally ordered the columnf. to -moye. Then the members of the order fell into line m. and one of the prettiest parades ever given by a secret organization In this city result«d. There was no less'- shaft. 1,200 jpeopig in line and to the music of twelve brass bifids marched over the principal streets:- The

The parade consisted of the following: Platoon or police.

AT THE COURT HOUSE.

Address of Welcome by Mayor Ross and Responses by Visitors. „. The parade required" so muca titne^flvat the speakers did not arrive ^ie court house until 4 o'clock. A large crowd had grown tired waiting for the oratoric.tl en?? »f the celebration and had distributed itself llong the stone fence around the court house fard and on the steps at the east entrance If the building. When tne music of the ieading band smote the air there was a sheer from the weary waiters. It waa Pfieen minutes later when Mr. James Corbnnn Shairrrwtn of the executive committee of the iocal lodge, mounted the steps and informed uie people that the speaking 'would be ar the south side of the court house, where the £oice from the street cars would noi Interrupt the orators. ip.

Mr. Cornman introduced Mayor Fre-J Ross. The latter bad hus Prince Albert buttoned tightly about his body and wore cn his lapel a handsome anchor—an A. O. U. \V. emblem—presented to h!m by Anderson Lodge No. 71. The mayor was in good voice and spoke as follows: "I have the distinguished honor today of welcoming to our city membeis. with taeir families and friends, of one of the mott successful beneficiary organizations i& the £0 old as counted by year*, but

in it* accomplishment far outshining many of xnuel| older origin. ". '/Assembled as you are to celebrate the twentyrDlae anniversary of your "society, which during its short existence has distributed nearly seventy millions of dollars to widows and orphans of deceased members, agigt tejnelntlon the vast amounts .distributee! as sifck benefits, and for various disabilities, and which has long passed the pxperlment-.il •lUgfe',. it is. altogether unnecessary tbit I tfhdercirke to speak in its bebalf. Your .work, gentlemen, speaks for itself. The thousands of widows and orphans, the msny si&ft-'anii? unfortunate wno have fallen by the way, having been helped from tne icpttass despondency by your ever ready hand, speak far more in your praise, than my cold words of eulogy to which I might ,jlve -utterance. Organized to embrace and give ^equat consideration to all kinds and classes ,of .tabor, mental and physical, to endeavor to improve the moral, intelleetuxl and social conditions of its members, and by wholesome precepts and admonitions to inspire due appreciations of the realities and rlws

Ee^spgji'sibilities of life, such a society tan not.faii to commend itself to that large and. splendid element of the body politic, the socalled laboring class. Believing as I do, in this hearty welcome which in the name of the'city which I have the honor to represent is: given you this day, that I fully voice the statepient of our people—speaking with positive assurance of their full approbation. We are a society town: our borders may not be so widely extended, our rent rolls not so long, the smoke of our chimneys not so dense, we may not count Tor as much in point of numbers, as some sister cities represented here today, but what we lack in .'those directions, we believe is made up in the"possession of those rare qualities which go to" elevate society, to constitute a prosperous and happy community. "Therefore, the various fraternities, having, in many rcspects the same objects in view as has yours, have found with us a large and increasing membership and cnthusiastic adherents. "Therefore, to this society town, I welcome you, may.the festivities of this occasion not only strengthen your membership in 4ts loyally to the grand principles which un46~lie your organization, but awaken in all other fraternities a determination to give their best energies to the upbuilding of their orders, that hereby the great principles of

Friendship, Love and Truth, Faith Hope and Charity, may have a deeper and more abiding lodgment in the breasts of our people* "So long as you remain with us consider u^ :your servants. We have lost the key, the.' latch string: is out, enter and take posqejsision." "SEECHES BY A. O. U. W. OFFICERS*. [Mayor Ross" speech was greeted with applause. The next speaker introduced was Grand Master Workman T. D. Neal. The latter responded to the mayor's remarks Of -Welcome in behalf of the grand jurisdiction of Indiana and also of that of Illinois. Mr. Neal paid a handsome tribute to Terre Haute aijd the Hoosier state. He complimented tbie people of Indiana for their schools, their hospitality and their achievements in the field of political and intellectual endeavor. He referred to the names of Hendricks, Harrison, Morton, Voorhees and McDonald in a feeling manner that brought forth applause. The closing portion of Mr. Neal's speech w^ts devoted to a description and to praise of the Ancient Order of United Workmen. His address was in thorough good taste and deserved the enthusiastic reception accorded it.V

The Hon. James L. Robinson of Ft. Wayne [was next introduced. He spoke for fifteen mjiniites with animation and eloquence. He recited instances of the misguided energy of ptftneval man. and showed bow fruitful of good is the effort of mankind in these days*. Mr. Robinson closed by extolling the order to which he belongs and recounting some, of its important achievement along

the,.lines indicated by its motto: "Faith, Charity and Protection." He said that "the tears of gratitude of widows and children

laughter subsided Mr. Wade declared, in,.a, voice that fairly ripped the air into .^hreds, "Woman is God's thought dressed up." Thtere was more laughter an.d then Mr. •Wade added, "and that is what we baldheaded and hairy-headed men are here for.",, The M*. Vernon man's speech was more or less humorous throughout, although there wefe some serious and some really eloquent passages in it. He m^de a hit by saying something about the poor people of this country and then hastening to exclaim, VAnd I would rather be one of them than to be the king of Great Britain." In one place Mr. Wade declared: "I would rather die and .be hurled headlong into eternity and digested in the stomach of annihilation than to live without brothers and friends." And again he said: "When I am called hence, I would rather my name would live in the heart of one friend than that it should be carved in a shaft high and huge as Olympus." Mr. Wade's speech was liberally applauded and generously laughed at.

The Hon. Peter Luther of Brazil, the last speaker, had darkness and the natural impatience of the people to contend with. The former drawback made it difficult for him to read his manuscript and the latter interfered with his making himself heard. Nevertheless. h.s speech was a remarkably vigorous and intelligent one. Mr. Luther is a man with white hair-and beard, but his voice is strong and he speaks with the fire of a much ^younger man. The few people who lingered to hear him through were well repaid.

A~t the conclusion of the speechmaking the

Ringgold Band gave a short concert, but it

was enjoyed by onlv a small remnant of thef

original assemblage.

•*P«

The exterior of the hall was a mass of banting, flags and lanterns. The interior presented a happy scene with the eight long tables, at each of which forty persons were seated. Palms and other flowers adorned each table and at each plate was a pretty souverir napkin. The tables were loaded w{th inviting dishes and fine cakes were in abundance: The tables on the stage for the Stand officers accomodated thirty persons. The ceiling was decorated with streamers of pink and White.

THE EVENING PROGRAMME.

Dengnirui Programme At Bindley Hall— jDance At Gemnania Hall.

The place of holding next year's A. O. U. W. celebration is one thing uppermost in this minds of the members pf the order. TB£ peopJe ^bo came here yesterday are in favor of holding it at Terre Haute, for without single exception they had a grand time. But Fbft Wayne wants it and so does Evansville. Fort Wayne will In all probability get It. Fort Wayne was not well represented yesterday. The railroads for some inexplicable reason would not make rate

for the people from the hustling city, and as a result but fifty representatives of the* order came down. The Fort Wayne people had arranged to send a delegation of 1,000 and would have done so had they been able to secure a rate from the railroads.

However, the people who did pay full fare and attend the celebration made their presence felt and when the grand lodge meets next January it will surely be decided that Fort Wayne Shall have the next meet-? ing. There was to have been a delegation of 500 from Anderson yesterday, but like: the members from Fort Wayne they could, secure no rates on the railroads. The grand officers of the order were in session at' the New Filbeck last night. They were talbings *)veu the affairs of the order and amoag| other things decided to keep the deputies" in the field until January 1st. The question of changing the system of assessment also came' up. Heretofore it has been regulated by the age of the member, but there is a plan on foot to abolish this and have the assessments made uniform as it is in other states. This will be further considered when the grand officers meet at Evansville,

Last night's programme was a fitting finale to the day's celebration. There was a crmh at Bindley Hall and no less tflan 500 people were turned away. The programme was a beautiful one. Probably the "inost entertaining feature from the stmdpoint of a' aifin* ber was the address by the Rev. fir. Turner of Evansville on the subject "Fot the Good of the Order." It was an eloquent speech and was heartily applauded. After the rendition of the following programme he hall was cleared for dancing and the young people made merry until a .late nour.

HON PACIFIC SALE

Has Been Amended and Thereby the Government Will Be the Gainer By, Over 88,000,000.

GLAfM IS TO BE PAID BY SYNDICATE

SALE OF KANSAS PACIFfC-fMAY BE POSTPONED.

London Firm of Capitalists Is Organizing a Syndicate to Bid For Property.

Washington, Oct. 26.—Although the government officials decline either to affirm or deny the report of its acceptance of the new proposition of the reorganization committee of the Union Pacific Railroad, there is no reasonable doubt "of its accuracy. This proposition is understood to be an increase of the original guarantee bid of $50,000,000 to a sum sufficient to cover the full amount of the government's claim against the Union Pacific Road proper, which on October 1st aggregated $58,067,398. This includes the principal of the debt, which amounts to $27,236,512, and the balance of the interest paid by the United States amounting to $30,S30.886. This represents the full amount of the Union Pacific's obligations to the government. The sale of this line will be proceeded with as originally intended about November 1st. As to the Kansas Pacific Road, the committee withdraws its guarantee and consents to a postponement of the sale to any date to suit the convenience of the government. This action, it is understood, leaves the government in the same position with respect to the Kansas Pacific as before the negotiations were instituted, and'in this situation the government may, if it so desires, postpone the sale indefinitely. The debt of the Kansas Pacific to the government aggregates nearly $13,000,000, ot which amount $6,303,000 is principal and the remainder unpaid interest. Whether the government will (usk the cotirt to order a sale- of the Kansas Pacific on December 15th .cannot'be stated, but should it so decide it is understood that no objection will be raised by the reorganization committee.. The. net result of the new arrangement, so far as concerns the Union Pacific, is regarded by the officials as highly advantageous to the government, as it secures all & has ever claimed to be due and renders 'it practically certain ihat a very large share of the debt of the Kansas Pacific will be realized wnenever it may decide to consent to its sale

Sale of Road Will K* Made.

"St.* Paul, Oct. 26.—A telegram from Attorney General McKenna this afternoon notified the attorneys of the government in the Union Pacific matter tha the sale could proceed as originally planned, arrangements having been made with the reorganization commHtee that guaranteed to the government its full lien on the property." This telegram was presented io Judge Sanborn, of the United States Circuit, and the notice of motion to postpone was withdrawn. By stipulation the sa'.e of the Kansas division wast set for oiaitf'liae will be sold n^xt,,fjlap^ay at Omaha, as heretofore announced by Master Commissioner Cornish.-

SUBSTANTIAL OFFER

London Firm of High Credit Will Bid on the Union Pacific.

London, Oct. 26.—The first attempt to organize a syndicate in London for the purchase of the Union Pacific Railway having the appearance of substantiability is being made by Coates, Son Co., stock and share brokers. A swarm of cheap American and European promoters has infested the city since It became known that the property would be put up at auction, but their efforts could not be considered seriously.

Coates, Son & Co., is a financial house of the highest standing. The concern became interested in the Union Pacific sale and is said to be organizing dn opposition syndicate. The chief obstacle to' be overcome was the short notice given by the, court, noiice.much too short to allow the maturing of plans for securing the necessary capital. •The plains of Coates, Son & Co. were communicated to United States Consul General Osborne, who thinking that a better price would result from fostering this competition cabled Attorney General McKenna yesterday: that another reliable bid might be made if the sale were postponed, adding: "This effort to secure the property, looking to the reputation of the parties concerned is undoubtedly an honest one."

Tne only member of the Coates firm who was accessible this evening declined to discuses the project. Jos. Price, secretary of the shareholders association, said this afternoon: "It is obviously impossible for' any interest but the reorganization committee to secure the road. Their syndicate is prepared to pay the entire indebtedness if necessary, to secure it. Moreover, the reorganization committee controls practically ail the first mortgage bonds and those could be transferred under the terms of sale in part payment of the bid. The reorganization committee represents practically all the shareholders, as $35,000,000 worth of stock has been already deposited with the Bank of Montreal under the committee's control. •J. Pierpont Morgan declined this evening to discuss the matter in any aspect. He said, however, that he did not expect to sail for New York tomorrow, although booked. He intimated that he did not know when he would return. \.
