Cuyahoga County Soldiers and Sailors in
Large Numbers Visit Canton.
AVKINLEY'S SPEECH OF WELCOME
All Kloqutnt 'i'ributu to the Heroes of
the War of the He!cllionMore
Work for the Soldiers Who Fought
Cunton, O., July 16. With colors fly
ing and band pluylng, the Cuyahoga
county soldiers" and sailors' union
marched from their special train to
Major McKinley's house late this tl'ur
ncon. This organization is composed of
veterans of the war of the rebellion,
and is non-partisan. A number of short
Fpceches were made. The speakers
were Hush lierkley, Hon. W. T. Clark,
Chaplain George W. Pepper. ex-Consul
at Milan, E. I Patterson, E. li. Uohn,
W. J. Gleuni'ii and C. C. Deoste. One
of t tie tp.-aki rts stirred the audience,
which numbered a thousui:d or more,
to tumultuous applause when he said:
"We repiesent. Comrade McKlnley, the
hearts and voices of half a million vet
eran soldiers and sailors when we con
gratulate you upon your nomination to
the office so nobly filled by Lincoln and
Grant and Garfield."
When Major McKlnley arose to speak
he was greeted with prolonged cheers.
He said: "My comrades and fellow
citizens: I respond to your call with
special gratification. Nothing gives
me greater pleasure than to meet at
my home my comrades in the civil war.
The ties of fraternity and friendship
grow stronger and dearer as the years
recede and the old guard one by one Is
called home. Your presence revives
many patriotic memories, it recalls
Stirling and glorious events. How viv
idly they rise before us and what an
inspiration for the right they always
are. To have been a faithful soldier of
the union is no less a source of joy in
your advancing years and infirmities
than a legacy for family and friends.
It blesses him who gives and enriches
him who receives. , It Is a record of
patriotism and service in the severest
trials of our history. (Applause.) We
all know somrthlng of what that war
meant and what It cost: what sacrifice
it exacted, and for what a holy cause
the sacrifice was freely given. Treas
ure inimitable, suffering indescribable
and death beyond previous record or
comparison. By far the larger number
of our old comrades of the Urand Army
are sleeping in their splendid tents be
yond the river: but though death has
decimated our ranks, It is a consoling
reflection that more than a million of
our comrades still survive. It Is a grat
ifying thought that those who served
tncfr country best In war have always
been among our best and truest citi
zens In peace. It Is in the living pres
ent, however, and Its duties and respon
sibilities that every soldier Is now, as
always, most deeply Interested. (Ap
plause.) THE NEW ENEMY.
"We have reached a point In our his
tory when all men who love their coun
try must unite to defeat by their ballot
the forces which now assault the c.vjn
try's honor. The war has been over
thirty-two years, und as a result we
have a re-united country, u union
stronger and freer, a civilization higher
and nobler, a freedom brighter and
more enduring1, and a tlug dearer and
more sacred than ever before and all
of them safe from any enemy, because
the men who a third of a century ago
fought In deadly conlllct, united In their
masterful mltrht to oppose any enemy
who would ossall either freedom or
union or line. (Cheers). The struggle
which Is. upon us Involving national
good faith ami honor will enlist their
united and earnest services until those
who ure arraigned against the public
lalth shall be routed and dispersed.
"The bitterness of the war belongs to
the past. Its stories are the common
heritage of usi nil. Whnt was won In
that great conlllct belongs just as
sacredly to tlios- who lost as those who
triumphrd. You meet today not as sol
tilers, tut as citizens, Interested now In
maintaining the credit and honor of the
countiy you served so will and in re
storing prosperity and bettor times to
dur goodly horitaj. The future Is the
sacred trust t us all south as well as
liort It.
Honesty like patriotism can n-lther
be bounded by state nor sectional lines.
(Great applause). Financial dishonor
ia the threatened danger now. and many
men will obliterate old lines of party In
a united effort to uphold American
honor. This you have always done and
you must strlvo to keep the union wor
thy nf the brave men who sacrificed and
died for it. I will be glad, my com
rades, to meet you all personally."
(Loud cheerlntr and applause).

Members of the National Organization
Visit Major JUcKinlcy Plaai for
Campaign Work.
.Canton. O., July 16. Messrs. J. H.
Stanley. N. P. Scott. Powell Clayton,
Cyrus Land. C. D. Dawes and Henry
C. Payne, of' the Republican national
executive committee, and General Os
borne, the secretary of the committee,
came to Canton this evening; to call on
Major McKlnley. Mr. Hanna did not
come owing to the sudden death of his
brother-in-law.
The members of the committee who
are here to visit Major McKlnley, dis
cussed with him the plank adopted by
the committee in executive session at
Cleveland. The deliberations at Cleve
land were largely adverted to In consid
eration of projects for immediate work.
There will be frequent meetings of the
committee during the campaign. The
headquarters In this city will be occu
pied a good deal of the time by Mr.
Hobart Mr. Manley and Mr. Quay. It is
understood that Mr. Quay will devote
a great deal of time in the south, a
section of the country with which he
is exceedingly familiar. Messrs. Hayle,
Leland, Dawes and Clayton will be
much In evidence at the Chicago head
quarter and will have charge of very
important work there. It la proposed
to have a lively speaking campaign but
the date for the formal opening has not
been decided uoon nor has the place
been chosen. The selection of the time
and place for the first great rally will
be determined somewhat by the devel
opments of the next three or four
weeks. The work of preparing and pub
lishing the documents and most of the
printed matter Intended for distribu
tion will be entrusted to the congress
ional committee Iu Washington. A
great deal of this work Is already un
der wuy and the committee evidently
means to act with uncommon vigor in
pushing its campaign of education.
Headquarters both In New York and
Chicago will be opened within two
weeks and the campaign will be fairly,
under way by the first of August unless
some unforeseen obstruction occasions
delay.
Messrs. . Payne, Clayton and Leland
left Canton this evening. Chairman
Habcock of the congressional ccnimlt
tee left for Washington this afternoon.
He said In discussing the outlook that
he had been mingling with th? farmers
in Wisconsin and that while the silver
sentiment wns strong in certain com
munities It could be cheeked and eradi
cated by meuns of good gpeeches and
sound literature.
Among the callers at Major McKlii
ley's home today were: A. H. Rich
mond, a manufacturer of Providence,
R. I.: Dr. W. Sprlngstem, of Cleveland;
Henry C. Hedges, of Mansfield: L. J.'
Grain and Henry Niels, of Boston, who
are Just completing a tour around the
world.
R. P. Skinner, of Masslllon. enter
tained a number of newspaper men and
visitors of prominence today at dinner.
CAMPAIGN MANAGERS.
Executive Brancbof National Republican
Ccmmittee Ar.anginf, the Cora
iog Unpleasantness.
Cleveland, Ohio, July 16. The execu
tive committee of the Republican Na
tional committee reassembled this
morning.
Chairman Babcock, of the Republican
congressional campaign committee and
Mr. Thomas H. McKee, journal clerk
of the House of Representatives, met
with them. The former left at 11
o'clock for Washington, going by way
of Canton to call on Major McKlnley.
After Mr. McKee had retired. P. S.
Heath, who had charge of the McKln
ley literary bureau at St. Louis, was
called In and spent nearly an hour with
the committee. He announced that the
committee had determined to consoli
date the literary and printing bureaus
and that he had accepted the position
of chief of the new bureau. Its work
will be done in Chicago for both the
eastern and western headquarters and
a large force of assistants will be em
ployed. Messrs. Hanna, Payne. Dawes.
Durbln and Heath will meet at thu
auditorium, Chicago, Monday next to
map out the work and actively enter
upon it. This would indicate that in
some respects, at least, the Chicago
headquarters will be more Important
and the work more expensive than that
In New York.
Mr. Hanna did not go to Canton with
the members of the committee. Mr.
Durbln also did not accompany them
but went home on the Big Four after
noon train.
The advisory campaign committee, it
Is now said, will consist of probably fif
teen members. The list of names so far
selected is said to be: Senator Proctor,
of Vermont, Mr. Plunkett, of Mass.;
Cornelius N. Bliss, of New York; ThoB.
Dolan, of Philadelphia; M. Lang, of
Florida; General 'Alger, of Michigan;
Samuel T. Allerton, of Chicago; Gov.
Merriam, of Minnesota; Senator Shoup.
of Idaho, and H. Clay Evans, of Ten
nessee. A party of several hundred
sailors and soldi, n left Cleveland at
noon today to call upon Major McKln
ley at Canton.

A CROWN OF LAURELS TENDERED
The Cinb Decides by Resolution That
It Has Always Sympathized with
the President's Fiuauciul Policy.
Will Support No Cuudidnte on Plat
form Thut Repudiates It.
Boston, Mass.. July 16. Nearly one
hundred members of the Massachusetts
rstorni club met and dined at the Par
ker house this afternoon. The main ob
ject of the gathering was to consider
the present political situation. Colonel
1 li. Hoxkell. of the Boston H'iraM.
presided.
Colonel Haskell opened the speaking
and struck the kty note of the gather
ing. He said: "This country has
renched a crisis graver than any other
It lias known since 18iil. (Load ap
plause). Though not questioning the
sincerity of anybody It seems fair to
say that various causes have brought
together, or are to bring Into dangerous
unanimity about all the popular delu
sions, vagaries and quackeries which
have in all ages threatened the stabili
ty of free institutions. The country Is
today seriously threatened with the de
basement of the currency, which in
volve the Impartial repudiation of all
private and public financial obligations.
It Is not only proposed to change the
standard of value, but to adopt a stand
ard liable to constant fluctuations. To
adopt silver as the standard under ex
isting conditions would be as absurd as
to steer a ship by the light on a moving
vessel. (Applause).
"Some of us believe that one of the
efficient causes of this state of things
has been the policy of extreme protec
tion which has prevailed in this coun
try for over a generation (renewed ap
plause). This policy has taught the
country a mischievous lesson that the
power of government can be used to
make and maintain artificial prices for
the products of the country. We can
question the logic of the silver miners
when they demand that the much want
ed principle of protection should be ex
tended to their product. If iron and
copper, why not silver. It is a fact that
protection has unnaturally stimulated
manufacture at the expense of other
great Interests, notably the agricultural
and shipping Interests.
CAUSE OF DISCONTENT.
"It ts a condition and not a theory with
which we now have to deal. The foun
dation of all the popular discontent now
so tnuiiuclugly arrajed against all (he
lessons of science and lstory, Is the
unhappy condition of the American
farmers. They have Been the prices of
their products prices made abroad
under sharp competition go steadily
downward while their mortgages re
mained undiminished. They blindly
struggle for relief, unwilling to look be
yond their own necessities. Their des
peration finds expression in popullstic
vugaries, promptly recommended by
charlatans and demagogues, to which
the false reasonings of the apostles of
protection give no color, and finally one
of the great political parties Is carried
off Its feet in the devil's dunce of the
Chicago convention (laughter and up
plause). I have a great deal of sympathy for
the farmers, but the quack remedy they
demand would leave them in a worse
condition than they are today. Tlie
farmer might get laifier prices forsils
products, but the purchasing power of
his money would be lessened. In only
one way would he gain by the"vepudla
tlon of his debts. Ail who work for
wages, all who have Invested their sav
ings, all who have liwured their lives,
the whole family of pensioners would
suffer. Capital would be able to take
cure of Itself. The severest pressure
would come upon the workers for
wages.
To prc-wnt such national disaster and
dishonor I am willing to set aside all
the ether questions In this campaign.
(Applause). As firmly as I believe in
lree trade. I am willing to hold this
question In alw-yance. A protective
te.riff only plcct.s an unnecessary bur
den on the baeii of labor. A debns"d
currency poisons Its llf blood mid de
stroys its strength. (Loud applause'.
It wus e.v'clent from the reception
given C'olon-1 Haskell's remarks that
the members present were willing to
throw political preference to the winds
and unite upon any action which seem
ed beat to compass the defeat of the
Chicago platform.
Mr. Dana, elder, gave notice of nn
amendment to the constitution, that
members who have betrayed their po
litical beliefs may be expelled.
DOUQUETS FOR GROVER.
The following resolution was unani
mously adopted with cheers:
Thst tbe Mn'serhiiKtts Reform club
has always sympathized with the finan
cial policy of Orover Cleveland and will
not support a candidate of a platform
which repudiates it and him, but recom
mcii's all Independent voters to take an
aitlve part in the national campaign
against the free coinage of sliver by sup
porting such candidates for president and
national offices who are pledged to main
tain the cold standard.
Edward Atkinson advocated the
adoption of a union electoral ticket for
which both Republicans and Democrats
could vote without stultification.
Appropriate resolutions on the death

TROOPS CALLED OUT.
Strike Situation at the Brown Hoisting
Works Assumes a Serious As
pect Severe Fi'shtlng.
Cleveland. July 16. The strike situa
tion at the Brown Hoisting works as
sumed so dangerous a phase this after
noon that three more companies of
troops were hurried to the scene just
before quitting time and are now en
camped In the works. Early in the af
ternoon crowds began to assemble and
stood sullenly about, defiant of police
orders to move on. There was so much
evidence of a pre-arranged plan, every
street leading to the works having Its
own division of trremob.that the author
ities in hot haste sent for more troops.
When the sixty-three men who had been
at work were placed In vans to be driven
home from the works, it was found
necessary to charge the mob twloe be
fore a passage could be made for the
wagons. The drivers had refused to
leave the stables with the vehicles and
policemen did the driving.
During the melee jeers and threats
were hurled at the "scabs," police and
militia and some stones were thrown.
The severest tighting was on Hamilton
Btreet and In the charges about forty
strikers were pricked by the bayonets.
After a passage had been forced the
militia had all It could do to keep the
mob from chasing the wagons. There
ts a sullen spirit abroad which Is more
dangerous than anything which the
police have yet met. One map suffer
ing from a bayonet wound was locked
up by the police. The state board of ar
bltiatton began Its work on the case to
day. APPALLING DISASTER.
Several Persons Drowned by the Cap
sizing of a Ferry Boat Seven
Bodies Recovered.
Cleveland, O.. July 16. The most ap
pallng disaster which has occurred In
Cleveland, except the viaduct horror
last winter, when a loaded street car
plunged 100 feet Into the river, occurred
tonight at S o'clock. While a Hat bot
tomed fery boat, loaded with between
forty und fifty laborers, was crossing
the old river channel, it was capsized
and all the men tlirown into the chan
nel and between 15 and 20 drowned.
Seven bodies have been taken from
the water up to 10:S0 p. m. The acci
dent was due. to a panic among the men
aboard. The boat was so loaded that
the gunwale was only three Inches
above the water, and a passing .tug
mude waves which came Into the boat.
At once there was a rush to the other
side, the boat wenfover and spilled the
men. They were all members of a gang
of ore handlers and were coming to
their homes.

A LOVE FEAST AT JEFFERSON CITY
Farmer Blnnd and the Boy Orator
IHscov. r F.nch Other in Glowing
Word of PraiseEutertainment
for the Enthusiastic Sterliug Silver
Democrats of Missouri.
Jefferson City. Mo., July 1G. William
J. Llryan arrived here at 12:40 p. m.,
Just as the train was drawing out of
the station at St. Louis the most inter
esting incident of the trip occurred.
Richard P. Bland had boarded the train
in the Union station, but he kept him
self in a forward car until the train had
started. He entered the parlor car In
which the Bryan party had seats and
made his way to where Mr. Bryan was
standing. Mr. Bland wore a long linen
duster over a suit of black clothes. He
stretched out his hand toward the pres
idential candidate as he reached the
latter and there was the warmest hand
grasp between the victor and the de
feated. "How are you, Mr. Bryan? I
congratulate you." said Mr. Bland.
"How are you, Mr. Bland? Thank
you," cried Mr. Bryan, warmly. "Your
nomination took a big load off my
mind," said Mr. Bland warmly.
Mrs. Bryan was presented to the vet
eran of free silver and after some gen
eral conversation the two men with
drew and talked earnestly together for
some time. Within an hour later there
waa some additional exchange of cor
diality between Bland and Bryan. The
train stopped at a little place called
Washington where a knot of people had
gathered to see the nominee. Standing
on the platform of the parlor car with
Mr. Bryan beside him, Mr. Bland said
to the crowd: "I want to Introduce
to you the next president of the United
States. I served four years with him In
the house of representatives, and I
know he was as true a friend of free
silver as I am, and I want to say that If
I had had the selection of a sliver can
didate for president of the United
States, this gentlemun would have been
my choice:
Mr. Bryan showed some feeling as he
responded:
"If this nomination had gone by me, it
would have gone to the man who for
twenty years. In the face of great oppo
sition, has kept alive the silver cause
and In the hour of victory he will be
more entitled to the credit than any
other man In the nation." .
This Incident was repeated 'at Cha
mois, where Mr. Bland presented Mr.
Bryan to about a hundred people.
Mr. Bland left the party at Jefferson
City, where he will muke a speeceh to
night. ROUSING RECEPTION.
A rousing reception was given Mr.
Bryan here by a crowd of more than a
thousand people who were assembled
about the railroad station. Kx-Gover-nor
Stoue and other prominent men met
Mr. Pry an and Mr. Bland at the train
where the crowd had gathered. Mr.
Bryan was greeted with loud cheers.
He was presented to the audience by
Mr. Bland and Governor Stone as the
next president of the United States
and Mr. Bland again took occasion to
express his satisfaction at the choice of
the Chicago convention and predicted
that Missouri would roll up for him a
majority of 50.0CO in November. After
the band hi attendance had finished
playing Mr. Bryan made a neat little
speech on the line of those previously
made.
When Mr. Bryan concluded he was
again cheered with vigor. Governor
Stone presented Mrs. Bryan as the next
mistress of the White House and the
Bryan party then withdrew to the train
which left Jefferson City at 1:15 p. m.
In his speech Mr. Bryan said:
"Ladles and gentlemen: I have Just
been thinking where I could find in all
the country a combination of circum
stances which would make a speech
so pleasant as In a city named after
the greatest Democrat that ever lived
and In the congressional district of one.
of the greatest leaders the Democratic
party has ever known. Richard P.
Bland (Cheers), and presided over by
one of the greatest fighters. Governor
Stone, and to leave nothing undone they
have just elected as mayor of the town
a man named Silver, (Laughter and
cheers). Thomas Jefferson, Dick
Bland, BUI Stone and Mayor Silver, I'm
at home here. Referring to Mr. Bland,
Mr. Bryan said that the silver leader
waa needed In congress. If It will not
be his privilege to sign a bill giving
6ilver a place with gold, said Mr.
Bryan, " it may be his honor to Intro
duce a bill which will place gold and
silver on the same footing at the legal
ratio of sixteen to one. If I can't say
anything about the ticket nominated at
Chicago, I can say the platform
breathes the spirit of the declaration of
independence.
He eulogized Mr. Sewall and said he
was sorry he wasnot on the train.
MR. WHITNEY EXPLAINS.

New York, July 16. The following
telegram which is self explanatory,
