Practically no Information could be gotten here today for the drive made at Reading in the mtnoV markets. President McLeod declined to see re porters at his oflice daring tne aay, ana when they songht him to night at his th met with no better success. HUM To all cards sent to his room, asking for interviews, Mr. JttcLeoas unvarying re Yllv WAS. that he had nothing to say.

Thomas' Dolan. one of the heaviest lMar of Readioi stock and director oi the road, was seen this evening, and he talked freely in a general way, bathe practically gave no reasons for the attack upon Keading. Mr. Dolan said he ya Wn with Mr. McLeod as late as rmlf nast five o'clock this afternoon, and the latter then assured him he knew no tkuud for the drop in the Keading stoc Mr.

Dolan said that Mr. McLeod bad not stated previously that the Beading had faild to train control of the New York and New England, but on the contrary they held the flew angiana uimpaay ftrmlv. In SDeakinz of one of the rnmnm currant on the street to day, that Mr. Wanamaker was unloading his Rwidinir stock on the market, Mr. Dolan said that he knew positively that this was untrue, and that Mr.

Wanamaker was holding his Btock. The Reading tAtement for the month of January, Mr. TWilan said, would probably be unfavor able. The conditions that produced the falline off in the company's receipts, Vinwaver. were of a temporary character, and would react to the Reading's benefits, eg they have left the yards of the coal tmlni of the countrr empty.

Mr. Dolan had no personal knowled ge concerning the report that the pay car of the Reading Company, on the Lehigh Valley division, had been ordered back here before tne emptoyeea oi me had been oaid. and that the banks had refuBfd payment on the Reading's checks. He was inclined to doubt the story, and said it was simply on par with other stories that had been circa iated about the Reading. i For particulars as to matter above re furred to see market report on third page.

The recent tnrn of affairs in Hawaii is attributed by many to tbe influence of Claus Spreckles, whose ambition and enormous wealth have made him vir tually the rnler of Hawaii. His im mense sugar trade CtsuSEKECKLSS states naturally makes him tbe most potent, though silent, influence for annexation. He is past four score years of ago. He was born at Hanover, whence he came to New York while yet under 20. Without capital and with but little education, lie began life as a laborer and in turu became grocer, brewer, and then the great sugar speculator.

About 1875 be began his operations in Hawaii by loaning the plantersjnoney, securing, in return, partial control of the industry, which rapidly increased. To augment his power in tbe islands he placed King Kauakaua under obligations to him by loaning him money. His power increased in proportion with the loans until the king became almost his servant. In 1888 the king was released from his influence by a number of rich mea of Honolulu, who advanced him money to pay Spreckles' claims. By operating tbe same scheme with tbe lately deposed queen, Spreckles regained bis old power in the govern ment He favored annexation, which will brjng to him vengeance and increased wealth.

Democrats Have Called Out New Orators Congressman Brunner Makes a Speech in the Fourth Ward Watches Appointed. Tbe hall of the Northeastern Republican League was crowded last night upon the second visit of the Republican candidates.

As Boon as they appeared President Harry S. Levan, of the League, called the meeting to order and spoke briefly. He said the march of their can didates through the wards bad been a triumphant one, aud as tbe day of elec tion woe near at hand, all good citizens were expected to do their ditty. Our candidates are above reproach, and if elected they will be a credit to the city. He was sure tbe League would do its full duty and aid to the utmost of its power in seen ring their election.

The time had come for a change in the administration of our municipal affairs especially in view of the newly discovered shortage at City Hall and the possibility of further developments. He said Bee to it that the citizens regardless of party cast their votes for the Republican ticket which represented the reform sentiment. Tbe indications are that if the Republicans poll their full vote success was assured. He closed by introducing "the next Mayor of the city of Reading, Mr. William F.

Shanainan." Mr. Shanaman said such a large Bern Mage of voters on such an inclement ntgbt was significant of the interest taken in the campaign. With the assistance of Democratic triends all over the city we can hope to see victory perch on our banner on Tuesday evening next. Hegasked that they be up and doing. neighbors to the pollsjwithjyou.jbe faithful to your trust, see tbatinonelstay at home but that the vote be.ajiaiyinu decisive expression ot popularsentiment.

With an active, untiling effort tin every ward thev could leave the result to tne good judgment of the public, it elected, we will give such service as shall prove acceptable to tbe entire city. I trust that the Twelfth ward will give a good account of itself next Tuesday. He thanked the League lor its kind offices and the stand it had token and would have beeu pleased to speak longer and remain with them during the evening but pressing engagements in other parte of the city made it necessary lor mm to be bnet. Walter JS. Koch was introduced as well qualified for the oflice for which he was a candidate and that he would be a model City Controller, if elected.

Mr, Koch said all were aware that the cam paign is closing, and tbe only request he had to make was that the ticket be given their united support to ensure success. Daniel Beidler was the next speaker and said the ticket was composed of hardy eons ot toil, and that elected they would give the city the best service at tbeir command: Adam H. Leader was introduced as a citizen of tbe ward and a member of tbe League. He said since we opened tbe campaign a week ago in this hall we bave done good work. We have spoken to largely attended meetings every even ing and we have reason to believe that with the hearty support of the citizens, the ticket will be elected.

After a short time spent in introduc tions and general conversation, tbe can didates wbo had been happily received and applauded for their speeches were cheered as they left the hall. They visited a number ot places where re quests had been made for their presence and than turned pp at Deuart's hotel, where there was a large gathering of the Thirteenth Ward Republicans.

After a few remarks he introduced tbe Democratic candidates who were all present and made brief a I dresses, with the exception of Mr. Dar lington, who is still confined to tbe bouse.

These remarks were followed by senator Green, Congressman Brunner, Prof. Aisquath, of Baltimore, and legislator uoouhart. Congressman Brunner said there was no reason why the entire ticket Bhould not be elected, as it was one against wnicn no objection could be made. Tbe candidates are all good men, selected from a number equally as good. I am sorry Mr.

Darlington is not bere and is nnabie to ge out, as 1 know from experi ence considerable strength is gained by electioneering. Tbe reason he is not better known throughout the city is because he has always attended to his business. Prof. Aisquath said among other things: ''What sort of Christianity is wnen a man stays away from church because he does not like the preacher? nut sort ot Democrats are we v.uo would not vote for a man simply be cause we do not like him? If you are Democrats from principle you will come out hand and heart, and when our banner is unfurled go into the battle de termined to sweep tbe enemy from the eld. ijecanse you don like a pohce iuuu aupoiuieu on me force are you going to vote against your ticket?

If tbere is any wrong in the party they will rignt luemseives.

it you bave one rop of Democratic blood in your body you will elect the whole ticket, for yon know every mun on it.

Tbe audience was a select one. though not large, many tickets that were sold being unrepresented in the house.

However, the programme, which was rich in classic beauty, was faithfully carried out. Tbe first number.a "sonata for the violin and piano," revealed such true feeling and high skill as forestalled all criticism. Each succeeding number, Miss Powell and Mij Pyas alternating, proved a revelation of brilliancy in execution and of thorough poetic contact with tbe theme. Miss Powell is a violiniste of exceptional powers. Hen work is full ot fire and freedom.

While she astonishes Ire quently with skillful elaboration, the strong, vibrant and sympathetic tones she produces with such sure touch, awaken profound enthusiasm in the breast of every auditor. Sbe is an ideal ized precisian. Miss Dyas' performances on the piano were notably beautiful, possessing nil the sol'd qualities of unimncachal.i technique aod showing a clear and fer vent interpretation.

I have been a loyal Democrat, believing in (lie policies aud principles as enunciated by Jackson, Jefferson, and not least, if last, Cleveland. The great claims and organic principles of Democracy are its anti monopolistic, anti corporation and anti trust sentiments a government for the people, of the people, and by the people, but the methods of the late City Convention were too undemocratic for me to give them my full sup port Who ever heard of the nefarious deception of endorsing numbers of men lor Mayor and then going colltisively together to deal out the pottaw. their name? not being even introduced to the convention fur the honored otliee of Mayor for which they were endorsed It was a piece ol legerdemain chicanery of the machine that ground out their nominations, and not the will of the majority of Demorats.
