CHAIRMAN BUTLER IS SUES A MANIFESTO, CAUSE OF BRYAN'S DEFEAT Tho Ham "Dttncrat" llrld to Hmk Alienated Many Kilter Republican The riot of the Mold Tower Dwelt Vpou No Fiulon lrU to lln Mnd U tho Future Washinoton, Nov. 0. Last -nlglit United Slates Senator Hutler of North Carolina, chairman of the Populist na tional committer, hold a long confer ence with Senator IVffer of Kansas nnd National Secretary Kdgerton and at Its close announced that he would issue a inaTilfe.slo to the Populists which would contain a positive declara tion that the alliance between tho Populists nnd Democrats wns at nn end. Hereafter tho Populists -would havo a national ticket of their own in tho Held. Ono experience -with tho Democrats was enough for them. The Democrats had, Mr. llutler said, failed lo live up to their promises. They hud, for ono thing, failed to de liver the full strength of their party, The bolt of the sound money Demo crats would never liavc occurred under f;ood management. In other parlieu ars, nlso, ho will charge thorn with acting in bad faith. Tlio senator said that he. realized that if the Populists should go it ulonc thoy would have to wnit much longer for success, in all probability, but he believed that it would be 'belter for the parly in the long run. The senator said that after his ad dress it wns not unlikely that the Wat ton letter would see the light. TIIK ADnitKSS. Tho manifesto which was issued this afternoon, is as follows: "To the people of tho United Slates: In tho rcmarkablo campaign just closed tho People's party was the only party that supported solidly nnd unitedly the great and vital issues rep resented In tho candidacy of Mr. llrynn. This was natural, for tho Peo ple's party cumo into existence to bring 'to' the front and to press to victory tho principles of Lincoln nnd Jefferson, already long discarded by tho two old parties. "The money power, feeling reasona bly sure of its control nnd domination of the leaders and the controlling in fluences of the Republican party, in 1802 gave its support to the candidacy of Grover Cleveland for tho especial purpose of having him, through tho use of patronage and otherwise, crush out tho silver sentiment in the south and mnko the leaders in that party us com pletely subscrvent as those in the Re publican party. To accomplish this purpose four cabinet ministers were se lected from tho south and an tin usually large amount of pa Iron -ago used on political lenders to the same end. It will bu remembered that Mr. Cleveland demnnded that the Democratic senators and congressmen give a decisive vote in the interests of the gold standard before he would deign to give out the postoffiees. This deep laid plan might have succeeded had not the People's party at tills juncture sprung into existence, t-x-posed the plot, stood in the breach and appealed to the patriotic hosts of both parties to cheek the scheme o'f the people's dcspoilers and rally to tho I common defense. I'KKJUOICE AOAINS1 llKMOC'ltACV. "Thus the People's party forced the Democratic organization to repudiate Clevelandism and return to correct fundamental principles. Not only this, the People's party then forced the ltcpublican party to tease hedging .and straddling for the purpose of de ceiving the people aim drove Ilium to take a stand on one side or the other, of the vital issues at stake. The issue now being squarely joined, it was evident that those influences in tho Democratic party which had dom inated and debauched tho party for n iquartcr of a century would be driven to tho support of the party thnt took a position on the side of trusts, .monopolies and money gamblers. While on the other hand, 'it is evident that a lnrgor percentage of .the Repub lican ,pnrty favored the principles now squnrely forced to the front, yet only a small per cent would In "this. cam paign support them because it hey found them under the Democratic banner. "Had it not been for tho prejudice against tho Democratic name, as well as a want of confidence in Democratic promises for which it must, he fre quently admitted past .experience fur nishes ample ground, a majority of the voters of the country, in spite of tre mendous and unparalleled forces put. forward by tho Republican managers would iiavo east their vote for u finan cial ivefur.m and American independ ence. "The P.eople's party with a high patriotism and an unselfish devotion to principle, greater than ever before ex hibited by any other party, stopped outside of iU organization lo throw its 2,000,00(1 votes solidly for llryuir. r.iu'uni.uMN aid 1 ookkd hoi:. "Had not mora than this numlx.-r nf those who called themselves Demo crats in 1802 given their support to Mr. McKinley, tho ciiusu of the people and American principles would havo tri umphed this year. This class will surely support the party of monopolies nnd trusts in tho future. Their places in the ranks of the reform hosts must be lakon by patriotic Republicans. In fact, Hryan would have been elected In this contest hud even 25,000 more sil ver Republicans como to the rescue. "The election of McKinley and the (Humph of the gold standard does not express the desires nnd sentiments of the people. The mujority opposes tho policy for which he stands nnd will so vote whenever nn opportunity is pre sented for a proper alignment. The remarkable and brilliant campaign of illium ,1, llrynn would hnve aligned these forces nnd marvhod them to a triumphant victory if any candidate or leader In America eould have done bo under Uie Democratic banner. "The administration of McKinley cannot bring prosperity to the Amerl t'rtii people The mills cannot be kept open, idle lalwr given employment and general prosperity restored and main tained until the wealth producers, re ceive fnlr returns for their labor and thus are enabled to purchase. Tho gold standard and monopoly rule, to & (continuation of which Mr. McKinley stands pledged, mcuns four more years of fulling prices, four mora years of lockouts nnd strikes, four mors yeurs of reduced wages and Idlo labor. This will causo-thc patrlotio rank nnd file of the Republican party lo condemn and repudiate McKinley ism as tho patrlotio rank nnd file of the Democratic party has condemned and repudiated Clevelandism. I can not believe otherwise, for I havo not less confidence in the patriotism of this class of Ropuelicans than the rank and file of the Democratic party has already demonstrated. Tin: rKopi.i.'sTAinv i.Avnr.n. "Therefore, a large per cent who, though not fooled by tlie specious pleas of "honest nioney' and promised pros perity, yet who would not in this cam paign fight under the Democratic ban ner, -will surely join hands with tho majority of the American voters out side of the old parties to overthrow a government of trusts and monopolies run in the interest of foreign capital ists. "The People's party has mndo this possible in fact inevitable. Tnc posi tion of tho People's party in this great contest has convinced every patriotic American that the party can bo trusted to stand for the principles of good gov ernment and tho interests of tho peo ple under any nnd all circumstances. Therefore, the People's party will be the nucleus around which the patriotic hosts must and will gather to redeem a betrayed republic and to restore prosperity to an oppressed and out raged people. Marion Hutler, chair man People's party national committee." BRYAN TO THE EAST. Glowing Cciniuciidutlous for Thoao Who Stood liy Silver. Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 9. Mr. Bryan gave out the following telegram to-day addressed to eastern bimettallists: "In the hour of defeat I send you greeting. No words of praise can sufficiently commend you. When I remember that the eastern states sent gold delegates to both conventions and that nearly all tho Kastcrn papers were against bimetal lism, your fight appears remarkably creditable. Yon havo shown yourselves heroes and events will vindicate the position you havo taken. Continue the light W. .1. lirynn.'' Mr. Hryan is receiving numerous tel egrams and letters of response to his address calling upon the advocates of silver lo continue their efforts in that behalf, assuring him of concurrence in this view and of co-oporatlon in tho work. , INTEREST IN ENGLAND. r.omlon 1'MpcrM l)eoletl Mnro Space to the i:ie!llon Tlnni Kvor lleforc Londo.v, Nov. 0. The election in the United States completely overshadowed all other events during the week in Great Britain. Englishmen have never beon known to take such an interest in a foreign event, nnd tho newspapers of this metropolis huvo never reported one so fully. Nearly all of the London newspapers had long special cable messages and published diagrams and maps in order to assist in explaining the political situation to their readers, all of which is having a beneficial ef fect here, as it is teaching Lnglishmen to know the I'nited States better than they have done in the past and to rec ognize the true greatness of the coun try.

Governor Altgcld gave out yesterday u statement ad dressed to the Democrats of Illinois, In which he says: "Although defeated. I deslro tc thank you for the loyal support you have given me, and I con gratulate you upon the heroic fljhl you havo Just midc. Consider that only six months ago our great party lny prostrate. It had .been betrayed Into the hands of tho stock jobbers and monopolists by Pres ident Cleveland; it had been robbed of everything Democratic ex cept the name; It stood for no great principle: it was loaded with political dead heads; yet it cut looso from the dominion of trusts nnd syndicates; it repudiated the men who betrayed it, and again proclaimed Democratic prin ciples nnd espoused the cause of toiling humanity. It was confronted by everything that money could buy, that boodle could debauch or that fear of starvation would coerce. It was con fronted by a combination of forces such as had never been united before nnd could probably never bo united again; and, worse still, the timo was too short to cducata tho public. While we are defeated, our party Is moro vigorous and in better condi tion generally than it has been for n third of tt century. We havo dug the grave of tho British gold standard. One more campaign of education will forever bury the palsied form of that curso which has blighted prosperity and happiness to mankind. Wo mny assume that the coming administration will be controlled by the men who havo been so prominent in securing this election. "I believe that nt the next general election the people will revcrso tho verdict of yesterday. Tho return of prosperity will not como ns promised.
