CONSTANTINOPLE , Oct. 25. ( Via Sofia ,
Bulgaria , Oct. 2C. ) The report that trouble
of a serious nature Is brewing hero has sir
often been sent out that any fresh announce
ment to that effect Is looked upon as having
little or no foundation In fact. But In spite
of this It Is but right to state once more
that everything points to further and very
serious trouble preparing on all sides
throughout the Turkish empire.
The ball was set rolling on Wednesday
lost when the sultan signed two Iradcs
which wcro Issued the next day , levying a
poll'tax of five plasters per head on all
Mussulmans and Increasing the taxes on
eheop , public works and education from 1
to 2J4 per cent , the funds so raised to bo
devoted 13 military purposes.
This caused the representatives of the
powers to send a collective note to the
Porto couched In the strongest language ,
calling attention to the danger that the armIng -
Ing of the Mussulmans was certain to create
and pointing out generally the critical situ
ation ot affairs lu the Turkish empire. But
large purchases of arms have already been i
made and the danger Increases hourly. The J
Porto today sent a reply to the collective
note of the ambassadors. As usual , how
ever. It was an evasive answer , and In substance -
stance simply stated that the money de
rived from the additional taxes was only
Intended to complete the armament of the
mimtnhfuz , or landstrum , the third and last t
class of the Turkish army reserves , and to
strengthen the armament ot the other land 1
forces of the sultan , which consist of the
nlzan , or regular army , and Its active re
serve , the rcdlf , or landwchr , and the mus-
tahfuz , already referred. Conscripts In Tur
key servo six years In the nlzara , four with
the colors and two In the reserve ; then
they servo eight years In the rcdlf , four In
the first class and four In the second. They
then complete their twenty yearn' service
by serving six years In the muhtafuz.
SULTAN SCENTS DANGER.
The action of the Turkish government In
completing the armament of the mustahfuz
Indicates that the emperor Is facing a situa
tion which may necessitate calling forth nil
the military forces at his disposal , and It
also Indicates that tlio situation Is the grav
est since the RusBO-Turklsh war. Under
thcso circumstances It Is but natural that
considerable uneasiness prevails. Of course ,
thcro is always In view the probability at
least that the sultan by these movements
Is simply seeking to detract attention of
his subjects from the actual state of affairs
brought about by tbo maladministration , and
that seeing that the powers are really In
earnest , and that an understanding between
Russia , Franco and Great Britain means
action , he Is by these armaments practically
threatening a wholesale massacre ot the
Christians and announcing that Turkey will
resist to the utmost any attempt at armed
coercion.

negotiations upon the part of the Turkish
government for n temporary loan have
failed , nnd the condition of the treasury
Is ono of litter helplessness. On top of this
the price of bread has risen 40 per cent and
bids fair to rise still higher , as the price
of wheat goes up. This has decidedly aggraI
vatcd the prevailing distress , and Its consc1
qticnt discontent. The police continue mak
ing arrests , and It is understood that many
more bombs have been found.
In Armenia the greatest apprehension
exists. The echoes of the recent massacres
In the city of Egln are Just reaching here ,
In spite of the efforts made by the Porto to
suppress anything but the official news.
The Armenian representatives say that
2 000 Arnienlfens wcro killed at Egln , so far
ns known , that no Turks wcro killed , that
nearly 1,000 houses were burned , leaving only
ISO standing for the Christian people ; and
that the women and children were huddled
together In the school house and some of the
remaining buildings , bereaved , destitute and
hungry to such on extent that even the gov
ernor general telegraphed that they wcro In
need of food.
, . , .
The olllclal account of the affair Is that
the Armenians remained In the church on
Sunday and Monday so long as to exclto
suspicion nnd the government representa
tives sent officials to Investigate. These
officials are said to have found that the Ar
menians gathered In the church , had placed
a rope nround the neck of the Armenian
patriarch and wcro dragging him nround
the church and shouting : "Why did you
not allow us to make n disturbance before ? "
The Turkish officials further claim that the
shot fired on Tuesday , September 14 ,
which precipitated the massacre was
fired by Katsab Manvogl , a prominent
Armenian , nnd that the Armenians Issued
from their church armed with rifles and
with bombs tearing the name of their de
posed patriarch , Izmlrllan , and marched to
tlio upper part of the town , whore they mot
the soldiers who were returning from driv
ing the Kurds , and that the Armenians
thereupon fired upon the soldiers and killed
several of them. This , the Turks say , led
to reprisals.
WAITING FOR THE WINTER.
Whichever version of the massacre at
Ggln is true , there Is no doubt that the
effect of the slaughter , plundering and burnIng -
Ing Is very serious. It Is claimed In certain
quarters that when the heavy snows are on
the ground and the escape of the unfortu
nate Armenians Is almost Impossible , when
the telegraph lines are down and the roads
Impassable , thu Turlt will resume his butch
ering with the knowledge that the news
will not reach Europe or America until the
mussacrcs are practically things of the past
to bo denied and eventually condoned by
lapse of time. The reports from Egln also
say that a number of Christians have been
murdered tn adjacent villages since the mas
sacres In the city.
Thn events of the past year have seriously |
weakened the authority of the Turkish gov
ernment over Its Mohammedan subjects.
Very little confidence can bo placed In the
eoldlors and gendarmes , as the latter have
received no pay for many months , and
tboro Is no Immediate prospect of their get
ting any.
Whllo Mgr. Bartelomcos , tbo locum
tcnens of the Armenian patriarchate , was
entering his carriage today four men made
an attempt to assassinate him ; but they
wcro solrcd by the prelate's escort. Ono
of the would bo assassins Is said to bo un
Armenian and'lt Is explained that Mgr. Bar-
tclomoos ls unpopular with a section ot the
Armenians , owing , U Is added , to his heb
rcrylencQ to the palace Authorities. bpp
Mgr. Bartelomcos waa formerly archbishop
of Brusa nnd wan chosen locum tcuens of the
Armenian patriarch , Matthew Izmlrllan ,
.when the latter resigned early In August
last.
Barlelomeos was the Turkish government
candidate for the patriarchate nt the election
In December. 1894 ; but ho only obtained onA
few votes on account of his Mohammedan
sympathies , nnd when ho was made locum i
teueni and was received In audience by the '
oultan , ho made Rn address of the most ser
vile description , which aroused the ludlgnn-
tlon of the Aimcnlans nnd provoked the con
tempt of the Turks themselves.

LONDON , Oct. 20. The wheat market and
the prospects ot a fall In India still at
tracts much attention hero and elsewhere ,
although eomo of the most Inflentlal news
papers do not share In the feeling of alarm
which prevails In some quarters.
The Bombay Gazette of September 10 said :
"Tho leading exporter has Informed his
clients In England that the crop ot cotton
will not exceed BO or CO per cent on an
average. In southern India the outlook Is
moro hopeful. The supply of fodder Is
ample and If the worst comes there Is no
fear of n recurrence of the horrors of
187C , owing to the Improved railway com
munications.
"Native astrologers , basing their theories
on the traditional observations ot the
heavens , state that If It rains within five
days a famine will bo averted , but that
later rains will not nvnll.
"Whllo a number of deaths have occurred
tn Bunkdclkhand , It cannot bo stated that
a famlno is actually prevailing , as the
stocks are not yet exhausted , the difficulty
being to compel dealers to sell. But a
pathetic convoy of itnrvlng children which
the bishop of Nagpur has brought from
Jubbiilpur proves that the resources of that
district are perilously near exhaustion. For
a mouth past wheat and flour have been
selling In-the bazaars and howrah of Cal
cutta at 3 cnnas per ser and rice nt % to
% rupees per niaiind , rates not dreamed of
since the last famine. "
The Lucknow Hindustani said : "The
question now Is whether the famine will last
only four months or n year. The autumn
crop Is sure of almost entire failure. No
amount of rain can eavc It , and the. fate ef
the spring harvest depends upon rainfall
by October 7. "
The Calcutta Englishman also published
a letter referring to the wheat shipped from
California , In which the writer said : "Tho
Imports should not be left to private enter
prises , which , stimulated by purely com
mercial motives , can not bo expected to be
Influenced by philanthropists , and therefore
there Is not likely to provide the needy
with cheap wheat. Even If the Importers
are satisfied with n moderate profit It Is
probable that the wheat will bo purchased
by a few wealthy natives , who will not
scruple to keep the price at famine rates. "
The writer cf the letter then proposed that
the government should undertake to provide
wheat by buying In the cheapest market ,
after consulting London , Odessa , America
and Australia , and then distribute It through
European agents to the needy provinces.
The Mark Lane Express today says that
the rise In the prlco of wheat la warranted
by the situation , adding : "It Is not
speculative. On the contrary a speculative
tear raid Is on foot. Tbo Engilsh crop ,
which certainly docs not exceed 7.250.000
quarters , Is stated to be 9,000,000 , and there
are other signs that outside Influence Is
directed to accomplish a reaction. "
Continuing , the Mnrk Lane Express urges
English farmers not to rush to the wheat
market , but to send , between now and
Christmas , the same quantities as sent dur
ing November and December , 1895 , stating
that the American and Russian farmers arc
strong holders , owing to both crops being
smaller than In 189C.
, RIS.ENOT .
B
oven * " 'If * " she wished"to do so.
and India and Australia do not
possess i the corn to soli. The only
two farmers having more wheat thin In 1S95
are the Englishman and the Frenchman.
The latter can place all his wheat In Franco
at a fair price , and the Englishman cannot
feed I his countrymen for six months ; but If
ho 1 presses the wheat market when foreign
wheat Is scarce. It will keep prices down.
California I wheat will bo arriving freely In
February 1 and Argentine wheat III March
and i April. "
The Mark Lane Express further expresses
the belief that the advance In the prlco of
wheat Is duo entirely to the shortage In
America and HusMa , and adds : "The ad
vance from tbo lowest point In August to
the best point during the past week in Eng
lish ! wheat la SB , Argentine , 8s to Ss Cd ,
whllo Callfornlan Is perhaps the strongest
in point ot holding for with a million quar
ters In passage , It fetches 3Gs , an advance
of 10s. "
In conclusion , the Mark Lane Express
says : "Tho situation generally Is healthy.
A rlso was bound to come , only wo have
obtained In October what we could scarcely
have anticipated before May.
"Flour Is from Os to 7s dearer. American Is
very firmly held and Is not shipped In largo
quantities , despite the Important advance. "
At the Baltic today wheat opened quiet
and was offered at 3d to Cd decline , The
market was steady , but Inactive. No sales
wcro reported.
The business In wheat In Mark Lane was
very quiet , and It was quoted generally at 2s
lower on the weather.
* At the Baltic business In wheat closed
dull at generally Cd below Saturday's prices.
Two cargoes of California wheat were sold
for the United Kingdom.

LONDON , Oct. 20. ( Now York World Ci-
blegram Special Telegram. ) The wheat
market today was firmer than It was Sat
urday. A feeling Is beginning to assert
Itself that the upward movement Is based on
a surer foundation than the Produce ex
change bears In London last week succeeded
In making It appear. A representative of
the World had a conversation today with
Mr. Rush , editor of the Bccrbohros Trade
List , the standard authority on the market.
Mr. Rush , who had Just left the Corn exchange -
change , whore ho had ascertained 1ho views
of all the leading men In the trade , said :
"This rise , almost for the first tlmo on
record , originated here , not In America. This
shows that It could have had nothing to do
with any manipulation of' the American
markets for political or other purposes. Its
cause Is that , hfter acvoril years of abun
dance , the people now recognize that this
year Is ono of ordinary supply. Owing to
the previous abundance everybody held
aloof from buying and the stocks ran down.
Besides , the Australian crop Is pretty cer
tain to bo a failure , nnd there Is the ex
traordinary fact that India has become
for the nonce , though to a small extent , nn
Importer. These things caused the recent
advance In prices. The trade always goes
to extremes 1o start with. A reaction that
has occurred was to bo expected , but the
cause of the advance remains.
"Tho men of the most experience In the
London market bellovo wheat Is going to rule
at 35 shillings ( JS.7C ) a quarter ( or right
bushels ) at least , becJiuso It Is now realized
In addition to the other reasons I have
given that It Is not possible to produce
wheat In Europe cheaper.
WHY ARGENTINE DOBS NOT COUNT.
"Argentine docs not count In the calcula
tion , because her crop cannot be reckoned
on until the end of November. It Is now
promising , but a week of bad weather might
epoll It altogether. If the Argentine crop
falls there will bo excitement in the trade.
If it Is a fairly abundant crop It will pre
vent much excitement. It cannot at the
best supply moro than 5,000,003 quarters ,
which Is n bagatelle In the general move
ments of the world's wheat. Besides , the
difference In gold premium means a loss
of from G to 10 shillings a quarter against
the Argentine farmer.
"Tho continental markets follow us hero
and until the present occasion wo have
followed America. For the first time In
years America now holds tlio key to the
situation. Every bushel of wheat America
can spare will bo wanted In Europe. Al
least 20,000,000 quarters (1CO.OOO.OOO ( bushels )
will bo wanted before the season Is over.
"If America could hold back the wheat
for a month It would go up 10 shillings
( $2.50) ) a. quarter. But I suppose the Amer
ican banks do not consider wheat a com
modity on which It U afo to Klvo l ri
accommodation , so that the American trade
"Tho Russian shortage Is uncertain , but It
Is now assumed hero that It will be 10nOO.-
000 quarters. Wo look forward on the wt Mete
to an active time , with considerable fluctUk
tlons for the moment trade becomes brisk
the speculators will rush In and Influence
the market. " DALLARD SMITH.

DENVER , Oct. 2C. Charles Lochto of this
city , who Joined the Cuban army last spring
and was token prisoner by the Spaniards ,
and after thrco weeks Imprisonment In Moro
castle wan released through the intercession
of Consul General Lee , has Just arrived
here.
"Tho sentiment among the Cubans , " said
he , "Is that Cuba will bo free within four
or five months. It Is estimated by well
Informed olllccrs of the Cuban army that
the Spaniards have lost 35.000 men since the
war opened. The atrocities practiced by
the Spaniards , who are exasperated beyond
endurance by the persistence 'of the Cubans ,
would hardly bo credited. I have seen
T/jmcn nnd girls outraged , and I saw an
American citizen , Dan Erb , formerly a fire
man on the Denver & Rio Grande railroad
at Leadvlllo , shot down In cold blood by a
Spanish officer. Erb was taken prisoner at
the same tlmo as myself. We were held as
prisoners on the sldo of the railroad true *
awaiting the train to carry us to Havana.
A Spanish officer entered Into conversation
with Erb. who exclaimed defiantly that ho
was an American citizen and expected to bu J
treated like a man. The cfilccr drew a olx-
shooter nnd killed Erb on tbo spot.
"While I was confined In the castle I
witnessed many startling scones. Every
morning the prisoners arc obliged to go to
the sea shore and batho. They are sent out
In gangs of twenty men under heavy guard.
I noticed that some never returned. The
missing men were eaten by sharks. Hun
dreds , and perhaps thousands , of prisoners
have been disposed of through the agency
of sharks ,
"Tho doors of the inclosuros surrounding
the castle are left open , as If to Invite es
cape , but no man who has made the at
tempt has been heard of again. These who
attempt to leave are shot down like rats.
"In the castle I was fed on tortillas and
water. The tortillas have evidently been
doctored , for they wcro unlike anything 1
ever tasted. The water was salt and
brought on dysentery. In a room eight by
ten feet in size , twelve prisoners wcro
packed like sandwiches. At night wo were
obliged to sleep In tiers , the upper tier
reaching to the celling. Of course there
was no ventilation end everybody In the
room was sick. According to the best es
timate I could got , there are over 3,000 men
confined in the castle under the conditions
I have ntrr.cd. "

Ccnorlll In South
SIOUX FALLS. S. D.j Oct. 20. ( Special
Telegram. ) The Bryan irien are getting des
perate and their public utterances are as-
toundlng the people. Senator Pcttlgrew In
a recent speech declared : "I would rather
bo singing the Marseillaise tonight than
making pepole laugh , " and again. "If our
principles cannot bo settled by the ballot
they must be settled by bloodshed. "
Today the popullet state committee had
painted two transparencies , one ot theM
road : "The time will como when the bank-
ers of New York and Boston will be hung
like the horse thieves of Texas. " The other
read : "Give us Liberty or give us Death. "
The endorsement of such radical cries has
shocked the people Immensely and thcro Is
a considerable movement away from Bryan.
The Bryan men are losing heart on * ao re
sult in the state. The republicans have for
a wcok or two been trylijg to get even bets
on the state. They secured a few small ones.
Saturday ono McKlnloylto deposited $1000
with Colonel Fred Snyder , after vainly bluffIng -
Ing the Bryan leaders. 'So much was their
failure to niret It weakening their cause
here that today C. . A. .lowett and half a
dozen leaders made up a purse and covered
it. Colonel Snyder at ouco offered to double
the bet , but they refused. Even bets on
McKlnley carrying the state are going beg
ging here , though several thousand dollars
is offered.

CHICAGO , Oct. 26. The two huge grain
elevators belonging to the Chicago & Paclflc
Elevator company were destroyed by flro
this afternoon , together with their contents.
A number of smaller buildings were burned
as well and the total loss will bo $1,000,000.
The Insurance will cover three-quarters of
the amount. It was a dangerous locality
for a fire. Directly to the north Is the
Armour elevator , the largest In the world ,
stocked up to the roof with grain. To the
northeast Is the Immense malting house ot
Halo & Curtis , whllo close at hand are the
docks of the Crescent company with thou
sands of tons of bituminous coal. The numer
ous lumber yards In the vicinity added to
the danger. Thousands of people gathered
to witness the spectacle afforded by over
1,000,000 bushels of grain ablaze. At ono
stngo they saw a cataract of burning wheat
falling from 100 feet In the alr.The blaze
started about neon.
By 1 p. m. the flro had been mastered.
U had by this time spread to several small
frame buildings used as weighing offices
and these were soon destroyed. The heat
from the burning elevators was terrific and
finally compelled the abandonment of four
lines of hose which had been run Into the
boiler room of elevator A.
Five firemen of company 33 nearly lost
their lives whllo fighting the flames from
the roof of the office , n small brick build
ing In close proximity to ono of the ele
vators. Notwithstanding the roof had
caught flro and was burning beneath them
they stuck nt their post , until suddenly thereof
roof fell from beneath them. Two of the
men wcro close enough to the edge of the
wall to grab It nnd were left dangling there
as the roof fell In. The other three went
down , but held to the hose and wcro res
cued with great difficulty.
The Pacific elevator was composed of
three separate buildings , each six stories In
height. Elevator A wns the first to go and
then elevator B caught fire. Burning tim
bers wcro carried by the high .wind nnd
for a tlmo It waa thought that many build
ings In the vicinity were doomed , and heavy
lines ot freight cars standing on the track
wcro removed as fast as possible. Loss In
this direction was slight.
The malting house of Halo & Curtis Is the
nearest building of any size to the burned
elevators and for a lime was In Imminent
danger of destruction. Several times It
caught fire , but by hard work the building
was saved from serious damage.
I1. G. Perry'the superintendent of the
Pacific Elevator company , said thcro were
1,100,000 bushels of wheat stored In elevators
A and II. He estimated the loss to be at
Icist $1,600,000. Shortly after the flro broke
out the south wall of the elevator cave
way and thousands of bushels of wheat fell
Into the river. Directly to the west of thoclo-
yalora are Iho yards of the S. F. Crane HarJ-
Jvtiou Lumber company a.nd several times
* smaH""blazcR were discovered among 1ho
piles'of lumber , but as' fast as they were
"discovered .Itoy ' wer ? rxtlnRuUh.od. „ .Tho
greatest danger experienced by lhu i1rcmctf
was the flying debris. The burning buildings
wcro covered with corrugated Iron and large
sections of this heated to wnlto heat fell
ns they were loosened from their fastenings
by the flre. It was with the greatest dlffl-
culty that the flremcn kept dodging these
falling sections of Iron.
Most of the grain was the property of the
Pacific Elevator company. The Insurance Is
said to bo about $750,000. The loss on wheat
tn the elevators Is approximated nt $861,000.
On the corn the loss will bo about $35,000.
Before clsvator B was tn flames Captain
Quirk of engine No. 14 with twelve men
was ordered Into the building with leads
of hose to play upon the other elevator.
When the flames caught elevator B the fire
men wcro caught upon the top floor and
could not escape. Their cries attracted the
attention of Fire Chief Swcnle , who ordered
Lieutenant Wcndt nnd truck company No.
10 to climb the flro escape and cut a hole
through the roof In order that the men
might como out that way. Wcndt managed
to do the work after a. hard struggle with
the smoke and flro and one by ono the thir
teen men clambered up to and down the
flro escape. Quirk was the last man down
and when ho left the roof It was ablaze In
many places.
John Morton , a plpcn-.an , was badly cut
whllo forcing an entrance Into ono of the
buildings. Potcr Rowe wns Injured In a like
manner and Captain Michael Sullivan of
engine company No.14 wns badly hurt by a
falling piece of sheet Iron.
The origin of the flre Is a mystery.

COVINOTON , Ky. , Oct. sferd Fel
lows' hall was crowded torflfcrE by men
exclusively , without dlstlnctlrtll jFr > nrty , to
express Indignation at the Kip1- offered
Secretary Carlisle tn that Jiagon last
Thursday night. The chalrnfBHoscn was
Hon. Harvey Myers , ono of iMgricclors of
the democratic W. J. Bryan rW * . reP Ken
tucky. In his speech on taV. , the chair ,
Mr. Myers Mid that Secretary Ji n 0. Car
lisle , of all men , could afford to let that
outrage to him go unnoticed. The city of
Covlngton , of all cities , could not let It pass
without a thunder of disapproval that
would make any future attempt < to suppress
free speech Impossible In the city of Cov
lngton. Ho continued :
"Some say that Secretary Carlisle should
not have attempted to return to Covlngton
to apeak , knowing ns ho did the state of
feeling against him , but God forbid that
the day shall ever como In this country
whun any man may not be free to address
the public on any subject. " ( Uproarious
cheers. )
Mr. C. B. Slmral presented a eerlca of
resolutions. In doing BO ho said that owing
to promises from the mayor and police that
the offenders shall be ferreted out and
prosecuted , the resolutions omitted n con
demnation of officials as at first Intended.
Yet four days had elapsed since the outrage
and not a single arrest hail been made.
Mayor Ublt'cck ' arose and said that John
Fagln , charged with throwing a cigar at
Mr. Carlisle , was before court today and
his case was pending. Ho said ho had ap
pealed to the council to offer a reward for
the men that threw the eggs. Ho said ( ho
police would make arrests If they could flnd
the perpetrators.
George II. Thorpe , who polled a big vote
for congress as Carlisle's competitor ten
years ago , arose and said : "Tho mayor
scorns to bo after the egg throwers. Ho
does not recognize the rowdyism of the
gang of disturbers In the hall , or of the
great crowd that followed Mr. Carlisle with
Insults on the street , with ten policemen
marching besldo them.
Mr. J. D. Hcarno of Covlngton said if
the police did not know some of that crowd
of disturbers they were not fit for the busi
ness.
Ex-Llcutcnant Governor J. Bryan made a
fiery speech denouncing the outrage as has-
tils to the system of popular government.
Mr. Thcdore Kallam offered a mibstltutc
which Included a denouncement of the Inter
ruptions to W. J. Bryan at Yale and else
where. They wcro unanimously voted down.
The regular resolutions unanimously
adopted condemn the outrage on Mr. Carlisle
in unmeasured terms , disclaim the responsi
bility of Covlngton for that conduct and call
upon the city government to detect and
punish the perpetrators. There waS" not a
single no against the resolutions. Mayor
Rhlnrck waa severely handled In an Inter
change of words by a citizen in the audi
ence , who charged htm and his police with
coming short of their duty.
OWENSBORO , Ky. , Oct. 26. Secretary

CAMDEN , N. J. , Oct. 26. Garrctt A.
Hobart , the republican candidate for vlco
president , made what was practically his
first political speech of the campaign to
night al the Temple theater. In this city , be
fore an audience that filled the place to
overflowing. The mealing marked the
commencement of a campaign throughout
the state , In which Mr. Hobart will speak.
Previous to the theater meeting , the can
didate was given a reception at the Camden -
den republican club , where , for two hours.
a steady line of people shook hands with
him and Governor Grlggs , the latter as
sisting him In receiving. After this , Mr.
Hobart was the guest of United States Sen
ator Scwcll at dinner. Long before the
hour of meeting the theater was crowded
to the doors and upon Mr. Hobart's cn-
trance he was given an enthusiastic wel
come. Samuel Ballley , ono of Camden's
manufacturers , presided at the meeting.
Mr. Hobart , upon being Introduced , ex
tended hla heartfelt thanks for the recep
tion tendered him , and said In part :
In the year of Ib52 we were in the zenith
of our prosperity. No man -was Idle who
wanted to work and millions of money
were upcnt In labor. Wuges had cone up
In ten years 40 per cent. Notwithstanding
nil these thlnsH , during the administration
of President Harrlhon , yet the suite of
Now Jer.ney gave a majority for the repub
lican party less thiin In the eighty years
preceding. Wo wore then under the Bold
stundiird , ns now , but confidence began to
be lost ; men who owned mills could not
operate tlicm and millions of persons were
out of work. Then came the Wilson bill ,
and when It passed It was felt In every
household In New Jersey. Kvcry democrat
nnil every republican now knows something
must bo done. The republican party stands
Just where It stood in 1S92 , 1888 and 1881.
It proposcH to keep the mlllH open and
the men at work. Another landmark In
our history has been reached. Another
milestone fn our journey. Wo thought wo
wcro to fight It out on the old linen , the
tariff ; Instead , wo are to decide whether
our money Is to bo debased , our currency
debauched. I will not characterize this IIH
n democratic Innovation ; you know it Is
not.
After referring to some statistics , Mr. Ho
bart closed by quoting from his letter of ac
ceptance and from the remarks of Hon.
Bourku Cochran that this Is a campaign n.In
which "American Intelligence and American
patriotism must assert themselves , "
Governor Grlggs also spoke. Tomorrow
night Mr. Hobart speaks In Jersey City.

CANTON , Oct. 26. The largest -crowds
In Canton have been confined most generally ,
to Saturday. Today , however , wns a sur
prise , oven to the much surprised Can-
tontaiiB. Organized delegations came from
Massachusetts , Now Jersey , Pennsylvania ,
Ohio nnd Illinois. The day was fair nnd the
processions ot unusual brilliancy. The New ,
Jersey FrellnghuyBcn Lancers set the style
and the day throughout was distinguished ,
by the most handsome paraphernalia ot
parade yet witnessed. The Evlo railway
employes delegates were numbered by thou
sands. After Major McKlnley returned from
attending the funeral of his late friend , W.
J. Miller , the parndcrs began their marches.
They stood In walling on North Market
street In double line from the McKlnloy ,
homo to the court house , n half "mile straight
away. They gathered nnd packed nnd
swayed about the house , so that speaking
from the porch to bo heard by so vast a
crowd was Impossible. The temporary re
viewing platform used on Saturday Is not
allowed to stand after the day Is over. Thcro
was , therefore , no place to speak from but
the porch. Tables had to bo carried from
the house to Improvise a rostrum , so that
the people jammed solid across the streets
and crowded upon the lawns of neighboring
homes might hear. The women as well
as the men In , the railway delegation each
carried nn American flag. These wcro
waved vigorously. Torpedo cannons were
exploded , rockets fired and tin horns wcro
blown , whllo drums added to the enthusiasm
of the scene. Nearly all of the Introductory
speeches referred to tha coercion charge of
Mr. Bryan and Chairman Jones. Several
spokesmen challenged the proof for a slnglo
case of coercion. Major McKlnley again re
ferred to the charge of forcing employes ,
siylng : "There are some people who teem
to think that the best way to get on In
this world Is to bo against ono another , and
thcro Is a natural antagonism between these
who employ labor nnd these \\lio are em
ployed. They nro disturbed whenever they
discover that the employer of labor anil
labor Itself nro on good terms , and when
ever that occurs they commence crying co
ercion. It Is co-operation , the one working
with the other for the public good and for
their advnntngcs severally. " This nnd similar
sentences wcro received with tmmijtuoua
applause , cheering and waving of flags.
RAILWAY MEN FIRST.
This Is the last wcok of the campaign nnil
tl opened with six delegations scheduled to
visit Major McKlnley from an many states ,
nnd this number has been much exceeded.
It was about Jl o'clock when the first ar
rived and thcro has since bean a continuous
stream of people to the McKlnloy homo.
The first to greet McKlnley came from In
diana and wns composed of the Kallroaa
Men's Gold Standard club of Seymour. North
Vernon nnd Washington. Ind. The party ,
came In n special train of six coaches , which ,
had been on the way since S o clock yesterday -

BpoUc wan wjiu-O.-T.-
Montcoiricry of Sej'inour/ Mrv/McKlnloy.ij , ,
made the chief speech ot the day In repiy.
Ho said :
There nre some people who "
the best way to get uiiythlnB
IH to Do URnlUHt nnother mid U nt tliero
Is n natural nntiiKonlsm between these who
employ labor nnd those who are employ d , .
They nre disturbed whenever they d la-
cover that tlio employer of labor nnd the
labor Itself ure on good terms and when
ever Hint occurs they commence cryliiff
coercion. It l not coercion ; It Is cooperation
tion , tlio one working wltli the oilier for
the nubile Kood and for their advantage
! We do not want It. this coun
try untaKonlsm between capital and labor ;
hey otiKht to l.o . close touetlicr nil the
time The one cannot Kct on without Ui6
other , nnd Instead of their being enemies
they ought nlvmys to bo friends. InHtciuJ
of discouraging sympathy between thorn ,
which we all ought always to advance ,
there iiro those who would create antip
athy between them ; for example , between ,
railroad managers and those who nre em
ployed by the railroad , rsow. 1 dp not be
lieve In nny Htieh doctrine inypelf. I bc-
llcvo In the common brotherhood of man.
I believe that labor gets on beat when cap
ital KPts on beat , nnd that capital pctH on
best when labor IH paid the most. Instead
of being u natural imtuHonlsm there la n.
natural alliance between them and tlio people
ple who uro forever seeking to create nn-
tiiKonlsms between these who employ labor
nnd these who are employed nro the neoplo
who never give any employment to Inhor at
nil. Now , what wo want In this country
-and I am iiddresslng the Sound Money ,
club of the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern
railroad alone-la Ilrnt , confidence ; confi
dence In each other ; confidence In the
credit of the country ; confidence In the
future ; confidence In our money ; coiifidcnco
that If we Invest our money today , wo will
et something out of It lit the end 01 o
year. If wo have not nny confidence o
that kind , no ono will feel llko Investing
money , and If money Is not Invested thcro
IH no employment for labor. Then , Ipo.
BH your spokesman hits well said , wo want
n. tariff that will raise enough money to
keep this government out of debt. Wo do
not want nny moro debts or deficiencies
either In the treasury or among the people.
Wo must pay nn wo will BO. Wo want
a tariff that will enable us to pay our
bills und wo want that tariff BO adjusted
us to encourage Amcrlcnn protection and
uphold and sustain the dignity and Inde
pendence of American lauor.
HEST OF EVERYTJIJNO.
Now. whnt we want to do , not us par
tisans , but us patrlolH , is to sUuul for that
policy that In best for ourselves , our homes ,
our wives , nnd our children , ns wull as
our state und country , and tlion we want
to tench n rovercnco for publla law nnd
to stand firmly for tcsnqullllty ns against
violence1. Wo want to Htund by the grout
Incorruptible judiciary of the country ,
which In our bulwark of safety In every ,
hour of trouble and peril. Wo do not
want any dlxhoncst dollars. I Ilka tha
name of your dub "Bound money. " Wo
do not want anything unsound In this gov
ernment. Wo want a dollar that Is as good
HH Kold , ns your spokesman has mild , and
jUHt as good In the hands of the poor us In
the handH of the rich. The flr t tnlxslon
that a poor , depreciated , debased dollar
performs Is to tlnd Its way into the bundn
of Homo poor man who cannot afford to
lese It. This IHIH been the errand of poor
dollars over since the government licfrarf.
The poor dollars always eventually land In
the pockets of the poor people , for'where
thu breaker ' " " 'L comes , the poor man
loses It. The mun of capital keeps his
linger upon the financial pulse. Ho known
when money IH coliit ; down and when it la
going down he parts with It.
While the Indlanans were bulriff enter *
talncd a large delegation from the Cleve
land , Loraln & Wheeling lullroad shops and
docks at Loraln and from along thu line
waited in the street at the foot of the hill.
This party was Introduced by L. 0. Kddy , M
locomotive engineer , as being staunch uup-
porters of the republican party In the
present campaign , representing all branches
of railroad work.
Whllo the Ohio railroad men wcro being
addressed , thu shouts and ch-cm and bands

to make room for the now arrivals and review -
