While the meeting was ex- tremely spirited in siK-ts. nothing or Mtternees leaked out from the lips of the champions of the opposing fac tions. Mr. J. W. Wadsworth, chair man of the finance committee. Imrai diately after convening arose iu that he had heard intimations of his vote telng challenged on the grund that he was not a member of the board. "In view of the fact," said he, "that I have moved from my original ward and therefore, my vote may be questioned by some, I now tender my resignation as a mrmDtr 01 me vomu and ask that it be accepted at once." "Tou arc out of order," said the mayor. "I move that the matter be tabled." said a fellow alderman, but Mr. Wadsworth hy this time had gathered his hat and was walking away. Ji never came back. THE VOTE A TIE. The fates s. -m to to nemAndlng of Mayor Franklin that his record on this Queti.n of whiskey license to the drug stores be unequivocally set forth and recorJed. Thin ix ihe sec ond thne he ha,s ber-n mi.le to cnxt Jthe de-!diiir te .n this subject. When the vote in the board of alder men was taken about two months a?o 'on the ordinmcc rep.a'.Ing the li censes, the al' rmen tvd and .Mayor Franklin decide) that the drug stores should not be granted this privilege. The same duty confronted hlrn ugaln last night wh.-n the vote was eight In favor of and eight against granting theje licenses He again decided In favor of the opposition. Those voting to renew the licenses were as follows: Scott. Chamb.r. Bland, Williams, Severs, OarrbaUIl, Hart and Cave. Those voting against It were: Davis. Smith. SlieL.r. Kirk i.itrlck, Mc- jienzie, Orillin, Bunn and .Shoemaker, ADVOCATES IOST VOTES. It was conceded by many when the mldermen voted 11 to 6 In favor of re newing the licenses at their regular meeting Monday night and, passed on the first rending an ordinance to thit effect that the opposition would "g-t licked," to use the language of the streets. So confident were thoe ad vocating the measure that ttre meeting last night was called for the sole pur pose of passing the ordinance on Vs Second reading. Hut somebody got lusy yesterday. The walking away of Mr. Wadsworth under the Impression that his vote In favor of tho propo sition was going to be challenged, lout the advocates a vote. Mr, Jo. Klousn 'voted with the opposition Monday night, but It is understood that h liad changed his mind. If (his be so, the advocates lost another vote by his absence. OTHER MANIPULATIONS. The change from the udvpeavy to tha oppoltlon 6y Mr. W. . Shoe-, maker was decisive. Mr. Shoemaker was converted on this question since the meeting Monday night. Hearing that the opposition was going to the llmilt In winning the contest, Mr. W. T. Hart, a member whose resignation ha, fceen in the hands of the mayor for several days, withdrew that paper yesterday so that his skirts would be clear to vote on l he ques tion. Mr. W. VV. Haywood, to offset Mr. Hart's vote and getting Inielli gence of his action, withdrew his res ignation which has been on the table for several weeks It happened that It was not necessary to challenge Mr. Hart's vote and Mr. Haywood stayed sway, thus making futile the plans of these gentlemen. It is believed that the chair would have !.- n bound to Sustain the oblectlon to the vote of Alderman Wadsworth. had it been made and some undea".inttie6i v. us probably averted by the action taken The opposition gained lat night not enly by the charge of Mr Sh. maki r, but by the presence of M. -mm. (jriflln. Davis and Shelor. who were absent Monday night It Is significant that Mr. Orlffln, himself u druggiM. should ftave cast his vote against the liet n-". COLONEL KIUKI'ATKI' K'S FIGHT. , A good part of the credit for the victory goes without a question to Colonel Klrkpatrlck whose efforts were laborious He has work ed untiringly to keep the whiskey sway from Die tuk stor When the subject was precipitated ! st nU'hl, Colonel Klrkpatrlck walked to th front with a huge bundc un.1i r Lis arms. It was the record.-- .if pr. - Mil lions from Jan us rv 1st to t -.. t . ,,. right was denied the druggists. Colonel Kirkpat:k k first r- ;r..ui :he local papers the story of the ale whiskey on prescriptions lait year and added thi re r.rd since Januarv 1st, 10H. Hhe said .hat the record-, show a sale of whlke sinee then of t.6i gallons, which nl $.", n gallon would amount to I H 2 . 7 1 c . ANSWERS THE T I: I '. 1 1 STS "It has been charged. said be, "that this 'board whs work.ng h hard ship tlpon the drugfivts, and was un fair to them. The same charge was made wlien the sovereign voters ban- lahed the saloons from this c.ty. It was the same charge wiien the voter of the State declared some weeks ago that the whiskey trafllc. must cease In this rHate. This board is confront, d . with the proposition as to whether the ' ' law is being violated end as to whether the voice of the voters of this county and city should be heard or be trodden under foot. "I have heard to-day that a canvass : -. was made and out of i physicians ln i tervle wed as to their standing on this question, 27 of them were opposed to the prescription business. The voters , Siave said they were sgalnst It and de. -dared that they wanted absolute pro- hlbltlon. Are we gtvmg It to them? Art we enforcing the law? W have . the' statement that the drug stores have sold flO.OOs worth of whisker , this Tear, and the statmnt of tho alH haa never been denied If rfci figures show that the law is being vio lated, then our duty is plain and there Is only ana thing to do. We have al ready voted to deny the drug stores the tight to sell whiskey oh prescrip tion. . Tha chief f police says that drunkenness has - decreased 60 per cent, since w took that action. Why should ws then turn back In our course when we are trying te give the eeopla what they want? t DR. BLAND RESPONDS. .. ': " "An eld friend ef mine said nee." tgao Dr. Bland, "that there was al w three kinds of liars: 'just th er dlnary liar, the damn liar, and statls- tie and newsnaDers come under the! last-named bead. These gentlemen asking- for th rirht to sell whjakcy on prescription are not common saloon tnen that dish It out over the counter. I don't believe that this board think that of -them.' 'They have naked for this prlvileg because it la da them frBV-v sa vnw u profeesJonal men, -who are called Hpon by physicians to nil order for whiskey at time. They do not want to dammed as breakers of the Jaw, f oop tnU board will not 'consider seriously the misleading . information which Colonel KlrtrpHck has Just d , ..j don't want to discuss this ques- ition from the chair, but since it has 'board that the reports were absolutely . wwu jusjut . figures were complied In my office and for me directly and then riven to the several papers." MR. SHOEMAKER'S CONVXKilON At this sUge of tha proceedings. Alderman Shoemaker told of his con version to the opposition. "I want to know," said he, "before "I vote If there Is no way bv which the. sale of whiskey on prescription cannot be curbod. I voted last night to allow tne drug stares to sell it, because I thought there ought to bo some way to get whiskey when there Is abso- lute need of It. But I have come to the conclusion that the law has been violated and unless the druggists are' aoie to give us some guarantee mn they will abide strictly by the law, I shall be forced to vote against it to- night I know myself that the de- cri-aso in drunkenness In my section since the licenses were revoked has been at least SO per cent." aikt me voie was iacn, .nijuf Franklin said that he thought ther. should be some way to allow whiskey to be nild from drug stores under certain well-defined restrictions and he appointed a committee consisting ,,f Messrs. Chambers. Klrkpatrlck and Shoemaker, to confer with the drug gists with this end in view. "HYPOCRITES" SAYS GARIBALDI. The reviving of the old question of selling soft drinks and cigars on Sun day was barely averted when Mr. .Shelor presented a petition from the Hrannon Carbonatlng Company and J. H. Hahn to deliver lc cream to customers on Sunday. "That Just shows the Inconsistency of Fume people, declared Mr. Oari l.aldi "1 have stood on this floor and foiuht for .the right to sell cigars on Sunday to people coming Into the city ns well as those living here, and yet some ft thoxe wanting to give thee two. wholesalers ttie privilege to de liver Ice cream on that day opposed mp ntrongly then. Hypocrites, every one of vou! What is the difference between a man selling SO cnts worth of Ice cream on Sunday and unother selling $10 worth?" "I rule that the discussion Is out of order," said the mayor, "because these w holesalers already have the right to d liver Ice cream on Sunday." That tided the matter. On suggestion by Mr. Garibaldi It was agreed to have steps taken to ward draining the streams in and around the, city to protect the health of the people. Mayor Franklin ap pointed Mr (inrihrildl to confer with the hoard of health about this matter. PKATH OK. A;iU LADY.

Bryan, In an Interview to-day Issued another challenge to Mr. Taft. In replying to Mr. Taff utterances - printed .this morning. Continuing he said: "Instead of defining his position on public questions, Mr. Taft is inquir ing about my record, and in -his in Quiry he shows that he knews as lit. tie about my record as he does about the pwbllc questions which he has at tempted to discuss.

"I said In 1S98 that the Filipinos ought to have their independence. Mr Taft has this year admitted that the people must ultimately have Indepen dence. I have maintained my post tlon. I have also discussed the Philip pine question In this campaign and railed attention to the fact that Mr, Taft made a mistake of $114,000,000 In his estimate of the cost of Im perialism. "On the railroad question he has expressed himself as strongly a have. He has said, and the President also has said, that government own ership will follow if the railroads pre vent regulation. I have said the same thing. I did not desire govern ment ownership. I hope that the railroads will permit regulation. Our position only differs In that he has more faith thnn I have In the wil lingness of the railroads to be regu lated. He spends some time, on the money question. The money question has been taken out of politics because- the unexpected dlscoverle of gold have given the Increase which was demanded by the Republican party as well as by the Democratic party. "Will Mr. Tarft define his posi tion on the tariff iiestlon. on the labor question, on the trust, question, and on the other Issues that are pre sented in this campaign? "If he prefers to delve Into the past, rather than meet the Issues of the present, will he explain the Fen guet Rullrnad in the Philippines and the perpetual franchise that he wanted to fasten upon the Filipino with a perpetual guarantee of In come to the corporation securing the franchises?

The matter was reported to the police authorities and an Investiga tion was b.'gun at once.
