I CHICAGO. Oct. 29. After a hard day's campalnnlnK , William J. Hrynn returned to Chicago tonight , arrlvlns at the North western railroad station at 7:1G : p. m. A crowd of several hundred people met him . ' the depot and cheered lustily , as he left his car. Mr. llryan had dlnod before reach ing Chicago , and was met at the trnln by thu reception committee , which was to guide him about the city tonight. Ho entered a carriage at the station and was driven directly to the hall at which ho made his first address. The nominee made nine speeches on the north nnd northwest sides tonight. At each meeting ho was enthusi astically greeted by largo crowds. The Clifton house , where William J. nryan received the news of his nomination by the Chicago convention , was where Mia. Uryan received the women of Chicago. Do- splto the rain and mud prevailing for hours beforehand , the spacious corridors and ro tunda of the hotel were filled with the fair sex long In advance of the time set for the reception , and the crowds stretched out Into Monroe street nndVabash avenue before Mrs. lirynn arrived. The reception was scheduled to begin at 7:30 : and last till 9 o'clock , hut It was late when the llryan twin arrived from the day's trip through northern Illinois , and It was necessary to prolong the reception beyond the appointed hour to glvo all an opportunity to shake the hand of the wlfo of the triple nominee. Mrs. llryan proved herself an adept at handshaking , passing the visitors nt an nv- crago of thirty to the minute. Kor each person she had a most winning smile. When It was nil over she showed much less cvl- denco of fatlguo than the friends who as sisted. Mrs llryan was simply but beau tifully gowned In black silk crcpon , trimmed with white chiffon. In her left hand she held a largo bouquet of violets. The party receiving stood as follows : Mrs. Lillian Dun- canson , president of the Woman's National Silver leagues ; Mrs. llryan. Mrs. J. K. Jones of Arkansas. Mrs. O. Washbiirne of lloston , lr. Julia Holmes Smith , and Or. Sarah Hackctt Stevenson of Chicago , Mrs. S. 1) Jenks. campaign manager of the Woman's Slhcr league. Assisting wcro a number of vlco presidents of the league , the organi zation under the auspices of Which the re ception was given. The parlors where the reception took place were exquisitely dec orated with palms , smllax. the stars nnd stripes , and a great profusion of pure white chrysanthemums. Nowhere was there the slightest suggestion of yellow or gold. INTO NOUTIinuN ILLINOIS. It was almost 9-30 tills morning when Mr. nryan reached the northwestern depot In Chicago for his day's tcur In the belt of towns In northern Illinois. The train reached Elgin at 10:25. : He was taken to n platform which had been erected about 200 feet from the railroad and there addressed a large and enthusiastic audience. Mr. llryan was Introduced by I. N. Adrian , pres ident of the nimctalllo club of Elgin. The train reached Uolvldere at 12:23 : and was mot by a large crowd of people , most cf whom were wearing yellow ribbons bearIng - Ing the word "McKlnloy. " Mr. llryan was escorted to a platform a short distance from the train and delivered one of his character istic speeches. The train reached Frceport at 12 : JO In n driving rain storm. It hud been Intoncled to hold a large meeting at the park , but owing to thu rain the plans were changed and Mr. Urynn was driven to Ocrmanla hall , whcro ho delivered a speech , principally de voted to an arraignment of the trusts , bond syndicates und capitalists. Whtn the train nrVlvnl nt ltSford Mr. Ilryni * and his party wcro driver In car- rlaccif to thu Wlnnebngo fair grounds , where n largo crowd was gathered. Sir. llryan was greeted with wild cheering. Mr. Dryan reached Korreston at 2:45 : nnd addrcrsed a largo crowd from the rear ol his car. At Polo he spoke to another large crowd. At North Dlxon , the nominee ad dressed a great audience that hid assembled In the public square , and was lustilj cheered Upon returning to the railroad station , Mr. Hryan was obliged to wait ten minutes for his train , and during the mean time ho was subjected to an ordeal of hand shaking. At Kochcllo , at 4:35. : thu nominee was escorted to a platform about a block from the depot , from which ho addressed the most enthusiastic audience of the day. At DoICnlb a largo number of people had assembled In the main street , whcro Mr. llryan spoke from a platform. U was dark when the train rolled Into Geneva , at 5:55 : , but a great crowd had gathered at the sta tion , where Mr. llryan snoko to them from a temporary stand , lighted with two or three sickly looking lamps. This was the nomi nee's tenth speech of the day. At Whcaton It seemed that the entire town had turned out , and It was evident from the shouts for McKInley that a largo percentage of the crowd was republican. The last stop before reaching Chicago was ma lo at Maywood. whcro there was an Im mense gathering In the space between the railroad and the hotel. Mr. Bryan spoke briefly. HIS ClllC.UiO VISIT A PAIMIUR. llryun'N Kriinlli * HMNI | Alton ! Ch HIIH | MrKliilr'N { 'IIHMI- . CHICAGO. Oct. 29. ( Special Telegram. ) Mr. llryan's visit to Chicago Is proving a great disappointment to his managers. Whllo his frantic efforts and mad rush from place to place In the city have attracted many people , a largo proportion of them not only wear yellow badges , but show their loyalty to McKlnloy by cheers fcr him at the conclusion of Mr. llryan's remarks. Wherever Uryan speaks McKInley speakers soon put In their appearance , and If It wcro possible for Bryan's speeches hero to havu any Influence on voters It would bo moro than offset by the work of McKInley speak ers throughout the city. Senator Tillman's appearance In the public squares of Chicago at this tlmo are likened unto the notorious "sand lot" appeals of Dennis Kearney \ \ San Francisco and his work U doing good service for tha sound money cause. After Eomo tenants of the Tcmplo court building. 225 Dearborn street , had listened to llryan speak today they tore down thu American flag nnd trampled It under foot. This created Intense Indignation among other occupants of the building and for a time It looked as though serious trouble would result. After Chairman Hanna had this evening carefully revised polls from several states , Including those recently regarded as doubt ful , ho declared ho was absolutely certain that McKInley and Hobart would bo elected by a much larger majority than ho ha'fl heretofore - toforo anticipated. Ho said there was no longer th'o least doubt that all the Pacltlc slope states , Kansas , Nebraska , thu Dnkotas , Minnesota , Michigan , Tennessee , West Vir ginia , Maryland and Delaware would cheese McKInley and Hobart electors on next Tues day.

At 2 p. in. , amid the strains of "Hall to the Chief , " from the navy pout band. statlonH In the north gallery , Mr. Corkran entered the hall , escorted by the gold standard leaders In this city. He was jrcetcd with cheers , followed by chcem for llryan and Sewall. and for Young and Mc KInley. As Mr. Cockran moved to the front of Iho stage he was greeted with mingled rhcera and.hisses. The latter demonstration Mr. Cockran made UPC of. and ho remarked : I never object to popullitlc arguments and : hcso shouts nro among tha btat of them I iiavc heard. Populists can't wait for suc cess before they begin their establishment of disorder. "I stand here to oppose the wrong done our party by these men. " Here he was again Interrupted by cheers for Drynn and some ono cried : "Put him out. " "No. " said Mr. Cockran , "leave him ns an object lesson. " l ater , asking : "What do the- populists propose to do ? " ho waved hla hind toward the door , where the crowd that now filled the hall , probably numbering fully 0,000. was most dcnsu , and remarked : "The dis orderly attempts to suppress free speech In this campaign , as shown by the rufllans , Is an Indication " Hisses , groans and cheers greeted this sentiment. The hostile demonstration hid become so strong that ho could not go on further. Mr. Cockran added fuel lo the flro by Interspersing the statements ho made , many of which met with derision , by ref erences llko these : "Hryan and the crowd of lunatics nnd ruffians who follow him ; " "overy laborer will understand mo ; no pop ulist can ; " "let them alone ; they are simply Illustrating their platform , which stands for anarchy and riot. " Hero the uproar became deafening and from nil sides wcro heard "What of slave holders ? " "How about that Madison Square speech ? " Mr. Cockran Bald ho had been misrepresented by the press as to his Madi son Square Garden speech and that only \ few lines of what ho said had been quoted In the papers. The speaker said he had voted In congress to repeal the election law Continuing , ho said : "During a tew yearn ? ast the south has been disgraced by a num- l > er of wrc-tchca who have pretended to rep- cscnt her. but Tlllman no more represents Iho south than do the rufllans out there In the audience who have disturbed me. " Again the uproar stopped him and the voice of Hon. W. II. Mayo , mayor of the city , was heard commanding order. Whllr : hc latter was speaking Mr. Cockran waited. Mayor Mayo was rhcered to the echo for ills defense of good order and made hi' way to the platform , where ho apologised 'or the Interruptions. * MF. Cockran accepted his apology , but otated that there was no need for his ae- llon , as the people recognized the source from which the disturbance came.

The audience Increased In size as the meeting progiTisscd. The speakers wcro A. S. Churchill and Charlw J. Grecno , and both inado addresses brimful of sound money doc trine. The Seventh Ward Military band rendered national airs during the evening. Mr. Churchill was the first speaker , and among other things said : "I havu visited every county In this state except five. H Is my best Judgment that the people ore aroused In the Interests of isound motley as they have HQver been before. I honestly think that when the ballots shall have been counted on Tuesday night It will bo found that Nebraska will glvo McKInley and Hebart a plurality of 15.000 at least. ( Applause. ) I have arrived at this conclusion after a personal observation of the situation In the counties I have visited nnd after having talked with the leaders of both par- tics In the five counties that I have not visited. " Mr. Churchill then took up some pertinent state Issues. In answer to the praise that was being heaped upon the present governor for his economical administration , the speaker explained that the Board of Public Lands and Buildings , Board of Purchase and Supplies nnd Board of Educational Land's and Funds had Jurisdiction over the expendi tures of the commonwealth , and said If there was any credit to be given for an economi cal administration of the state's affairs , It should bo given to the three boards named. The economy of the pait two years had been due to circumstances that made It possible to purchase state supplies cheaper than heretofore. Turning his attention to national hsues Mr. Churchill said that Bryan had forced out the tariff question In order that free sil ver might be considered. Had he gone through the stale promising all kinds of prosperity were Cleveland and his Idea of the tariff succe. * ful , as Bryan had done four years ago. ho tqo would want to ivlegnte the tariff to the recr. The weakness of the free silver Idea was shown nnd Its Inability to piovo n panacea for the Ills that a demo cratic administration haJ brought the work- Ingmcn clearly demonstrated. In conclusion Mr. Churchill arraigned the Chicago convention , its platform and candi dates , especially for their denunciation of federal Interference In time of peril to the InJustilcs jiud institutions of a estate. He ihowcd what harm might nrlse In case of another mob with Altgeld as governor and Bryan as president , and said the trouble would epread even to Omaha. Charles J.

" M. Orr-cne palil his respects to the free illvor candidate In terms that were not to be rnUundcrfUpodi' ' He then dealt out some timely ridicule td itho populists. Among other things bp-said : "Tho party had never been entrusted with government , eave In ICunsan < l they hnd succeeded In burying thai atnle'so deeply In the mire that nothing but a republican administration would be ihlo to resurrect It. These people nnd the people of the south were the ones that wcro shouting that the republican party must be kept out of power In order that there might bo cqallty before the law. Yet Ilourko Cock- ran was not allowed to speak In Virginia , and other sound money speakers In the south had been grossly Insulted. " Mr. Greene then took up the financial question , and tore Into shreds the arguments of the "Hoy Orator of the Platte. " He hnrahly condemned the free sliver candidate for endeavoring to array the laboring men against their employers. He also said that the sale of the farmers' crops depended upon the success of the laboring men. who would bo happily at work under n republican ad ministration : "Mr. Bryan says.

In splto of the mud which made the streets in that part of the city almost Impassable , there was a largo crowd In the hall at Thir ty-second street and Ames avenue last night to hear H. H. Thorpe , the "boy orator" talk politics from the standpoint of a working- man. The speaker caught the crowd from the start and his homely Illustrations and apt stories wcro.received with marked favor. Ho made the "crime of ' 73 , " hysterics of the popocrat orators ridiculous , and effectually demolished the various sophistries that they had Indicted on the voters during the cam paign. Ho quoted liberally from the re ports of thu Treasury department to show to what extent the republican party had In creased the money of thu country and de clared that If this was the "crime of ' 73" ho was for sending a republican president and congress to Washington to perpetrate a "crimo of ' 97. " A fair sample of his Illustrations was that with which he punctured the Uryan theory that value could bo created by law. Ho said "If ho .should rldo out In the country from Omaha ho could doubtless Hnd a farmer who was said to bo worth $25,000 and who was really worth that amount. Ho might go to that farmer with a hill and thu farmer might tell him that ho did not have n dollar lar , either In the bank or In his pocket. Still ho was worth $25,000. because nature had nourished his grain nnd fattened his hogs and cattle. When Uryon could leg islate the grain ami hogs which constituted the fanner's , + rcalth then ho could create i value by law.5z > < > iiAitiii : or roKitctov vr TIM : IIO.MP.

He flrat paid his re spects to parties here who had Issued a dodger burlesquing his announcement as a democratic speaker and declaring that his expenses were paid by Mark Hinna , by sayIng - Ing that he Old net wish to retort In kind but simply wished to draw their attention to the fact that a certain candidate who wan going about the country levied nsacssmcnis on those parties where he condescended to stop who were benefited by the gatherings of InrK" crowds. Ht thru took up the cur rency question , explaining In the fullest terms the difference between coinage by the government nnd colnnge on private account , which was demanded by the advocates of the free nnd unlimited coinage. < f slhcr. He took up the hl.itory of the various coinage acts of the government since 1792 , showing the futility of the government's attempts to maintain n parity between gold and silver by mere legislative enactment without ref erence to the commercial ratio.

In addi tion to the fcpceches Iho nudlrncu v\as fur ther entertained with selections from the Swedish Military band and by an original campaign song by K. H. Lcatcr. In calling the meeting to order President Johnson stated that the Scandinavians of the city were almost solidly In line for Mc KInley and the remainder of the republican ticket , lie said that a canvass showed that of the 3,000 Scandinavians who reside In the city but 130 were doubtful or Intended to cast their ballots for the popocratlc presi dential candidate. Henry W. Yatcs was Introduced as the first and principal speaker of the evening. In opening his remarks Mr. Yules made a brief defense of himself in the representa tive of the class which llryan has been ns- sailing In hU endeavor to arouse a conflict between capital nnd Inbor. "As n rule bnnk- crs were not capitalists , Inasmuch ns the money they employed wns not thrlr own but that of drposlurs. " He also maintained that there could be i.o conflict between capital and labor , ns the two must neces sarily bo coexistent. Turning then more directly to the financial question Mr. Yntes denounced the dlshon- csty of tlu silver platform. "Payment of dcbu In depreciated coin by Individuals might bo ferglvcn If they were burdened with debt and could not pay In hcncst money , but national rcpudl.ttlnn could not be excused. In the flist case only the debtor was injured , but In the latter every man In the nation was besmirched. " lie showed that the wage earners In real ity were the capitalists of the country , ns they had in savings banks $1,650.000.000. Moreover , they \\ere the owners and hcldcrs of $125.000.000 of the J5S5.000.000 bend * which the government cwned. Mr. Yatra further overthtcw Bryan's as- sertl.-n that the gold dollar was a 200-cf.it dollar and tl.nt If It were cut down to Its proper level the employment In the country xvould bo doubled. The speaker allowed that as a matter of fact capitalists were afraid of Investing their gold for fear their re turns would bo In depreciated coin , and that therefore , employment was scarce. Confi dence belli ; ? restored , the money wculd again be Invested and employment offered. Under frco coinage the gold would be entirely withdrawn and thus free sll\er would bring less employment than at presnt. In conclusion Mr. Yatee staled that for the llrst time In his life ho Intended to vote for i > republican president , and In addi tion prope ed to vote the entire- republican ticket , frcm electors to constable. He ad vised his hearers to do the same without scratching n name. In order to root up the free silver fallacy entirely and forever. The other speakers of the evening were A. S. Churchill and George H. Burchard , who devoted themselves to a general dis cussion of the political issues without con fining themselves to the financial question alone. coi.oitni ) voTisiis OIT ; i.KOIICB. .
