Sent. 23. William J. Bry an Journey from Philadelphia today by way or Trenton, LaniPeitviiie. r-ini-lipslnirg, Washington. Newark and Ho boken. At Trenton a his crowd wus In waiting at the station but the iruin did not stop long enough for the candi date to make a speech. At Lambert ville a Urge proportion of the towns people gave Sir. Bryan a Uirrliig re ception. Stockton turned out a small gathering, while Pliilllpsbiirg's crowd numbered between four and five thou sand. At the latter place there was u slop of tifteen minutes and Mr. Bryan mad a speech, in the course of wnlcn lie said: i ...... bar., lnluii liiir mn. I want you to remember that in this campaign we have opposed to us every man "u tempted to destroy labor organizations .... I ,, , n-auoi'latlunS ot labor- lug men. (Ureal applause.) 1 want you Jo understand lliut we have on our sicie iii this campaign the only people who have uided labor in its endeavor to better trie condition of those who toll and we can better submit our cause to those who are i . ... . .,.1 in ih.. . if, ire of the luborlng liian themselves than to submit the cause to these who In tills election ii.v iu u strov everything that is of benefit to the laboring man. 1 remember when 1 was in congress we had a bill up to compel the rutltoad to put on couplers to protect the lives of the railway employes and ev ery railway attorney opposed It and told us that It wo"Ul cost too much, measur ing human life In dollars and cents, and when we Insisted that we had tho same right to pioteit the lives of th? laboring man as we hud of other men, we could not touch the hearts of these people. 11 the presidents of railroads ure able to manipu late the voles of their employes in the interests m' those whom the presidents of tallroads want elected, tlnn the president of the railroads will manipulate the men after the ele lion ami will he deaf to ev ery entreaty of the men who voted for their Interests under coercion. (Great applause.) HE RRACHES BELVIDEUE. Several hundred people heard Mr. Bryan for a few minutes at Belvidere. A brass band augmented the enthusi asm. The noon duy nun did little to temper the chill air at Manunka Chunk, reached by Mr. Bryan at 12.0). Manunka Chunk Is a little Junction where the Pennsylvania and Delaware, Lackawanna and Western roads meet. Jt Is not a settlement. Mr. Bryan stood on a baggage truck in the cen ter of the platform betwten the tw-J trucks and talked a few minutes to a couple of hundred people. He said the issue was between the drones and the bees. Those who had been producing honey and those who had been eating honey without producing it. When he hud finished somebody called for three cheers for the candidate. They were given heartily. The Uelaware, Lackawanna nnJ Western Haiti came along just then and Mr. lirvan went aboard; the train pulled out at 1:1.15, Mr. Bryan and those with him occupying the seats in the tear division of the baggage car. At Oxford Fiirnacf Mr. Biyan ud dressod a crow 1 1 from the rear pint form of the train. Washington was renched nt 1.45 and Mr. Bryan was greeted at the station by a crowd of several hundred people. He was cheered us he stepped Into a gaily decorated carriage with ex-Congress-man Cornish. The candidate and lus tiavtllng companions went immediate ly to Washington park, in the center of the town, where he addressed a large audience. TALK AT WASHINGTON. Mr Bryan's spepch here lasted three nuarti i, of an hour. He spoke from a st'im! in the public square to an audi ence of between 2,500 and 3,000 people. At Wellington. Carrett A. Hobnrt l.us an organ factory, and as the train lire iv Into the station Mr. Bryan saw a blJt McKliiiey and Hobart Hug flouting f.om one of its windows. In his speech he :t fel led to the organ Industry of the iovn, but did not mention Mr. Un hurt. His niidi-nce was very atten tive niui showed some enthusiasm. A l-atipo of the meeting in the park was ii i.'ivalcade of thiry young women. Mr. l'ryan spoke In part as follows: I want the interest you manifest in the fi :ion to grow until the bullols are all hi. 1 believe our cause will grow because it Is the truth and truth commends Itself '0 those who think. Our opponents tell us to open the mills. What is the use i.f opening the mills unless you can buy wti.u the mills produce. You enn open ail the factories you will, but tint 11 vou put fiioueh money In the farmer's pockets to buy products, you might art well Hose your t.i .-lories. Nearly half the people ot this country are engaged in agriculture. You cannot destroy the property of those en cased In agriculture anil expect people to prosper. If you want prosperity in this country you have got to begin nt the bot tom nnd let prosperity work up. Pros perity never came down to Ihe people v from the money changer of any country V f,n the face of the earth. (Cheers.) The gold standard means half time in the factories and double time on the farms to muke the same amount of money. It means half time in the factories because, there Is not work enough for the people to he employed full time, and it means double time on the farm to make a living. They tell us to have conlldence. Business men have been living on conlldence for several years and It Is getting to be mighty thin diet. (Laughter.) You ask for some thing to eat ami they say have confidence; that you have had enough to eat and vou won't reel hungry. They fell yon to have faith. Fal'li is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen. (Laughter.) MOKE WORK AND LESS FAITH. You have been exercising faith so long that you are getting tired of it. The Hi Me says that fallh without work is dead People are gelling to u point where tlifv want more work and less faith In tills doctrine the Republican pnrtv Is giving us You can have Just what kind of a dollar you want becaue the dollars are made by law nnd tho laws are made by the pea. pie whenever the syndicates iet them. (Laughter.) The syndicates will let them whenever the people make up their minds they want to make the laws. If the dol lar we now have is not dear enough you can make it dearer and push it up until you can't see it, let alone getting It. As dollars go up the man who holds the se curllles draws a regular amount of Inter est every year and that Interest buys more and more every year. Show me a man who makes his money out of legislation and I will show you a man who will stand on a street corner and abuse people who want to have legl'la- oon iur uiemseives. ne will say these men want to get Hell by law. Show me n man who has made ids money out of unjust laws and he will deny leg islation enn be of any benefit to anybody Show me a man engaged in an tiniawfiii business and I will show you a man who , says he Is opposed to my election for fear 1 won't enforce the laws. (A voice: "They are afrnld you will.") That Is the troubli The very people who have been using legis lation as the means of private gain are the ones who denounce anybody If ho thinks the lav.s ought to be Just. The people who used the law to strike down sliver In 1873 are tho ours who most bitterly denounce everybody 'vho wants to use the law to bring silver back and put It on on equality with gold. I have in my pockets a silver dollar, one of the old unit dollars. It was coined In 17i8, six years after the first mlntnge Inw. coined under the administra tion of George Washington. That sliver dollar coutains exactly the same amount of pure silver that Is contained In the present standard silver dollar. There has never been a change from the beginning in the weight of a silver dollar since the daysof Washington. It was good enough in the days of Jefferson. It was good enough in the days of Monroe and Madison and Jackson and Lincoln, and good enough un til we turned our treasury over to the financiers of Wall street and nothing Is good enough for them, (Great cheering.) SPEECHES AT BROOKLYN. .Mr. Bryan Deliver Three Addresses at the Academy of Music. Brooklyn; Sept. 23. Bryan delivered three speeches in the Academy of Mu sic tonight, next to an overflow meet ing outside, and later addressed a large gathering of labor men In the upper part of the city. A solid mass of hu manity packed the Academy of Music, and the streets sui'orunUIng the Acad emy were blocked with a disappointed throng, who struggled and fought to gain admittance to Bee the Democratic slumlord bearer. A resolution was adopted with rous ing cheers pledging the Democrats of Kings county to an earnest and un compromising; support to Bryan and SeWUll. Wlieu the names of Senator Quay and Mr. Piatt (both of whom were sarcas tically ul'uded to In the resolutions) were mentioned, there were hisses, while loud groans followed the men tion of Chairman Murk Hunna's name. Then Bryan came. Tho secretury had Just sold: "1 have a list of vice presidents of the meeting, I will read a few." But he never lend them. A mighty shout went up. The audience seemed to rise as one man. In an in slant men and women were shouting with all the power of their lungs and as nearly everybody was armed with a small American Hag, these were waved In the air until the whole auditorium appeared to be a kalediacope of red, white and blue. Those who did not participate at first became Infected with the enthusiasm and rose and cheered with their more emotlonul neighbors. The waving of the Hags, the resounding cheers from thousands of throats, the exciud people all con ti United to muke it a scene worth wit nessing. When quiet wds restored, Mr. Bry an spoke us follows: if you don't stop, if you don't preserve oidot, our opponents will say you are ugdlnst older us well as against law. I only wish that the distinguished divine whose name hus added even to the fame of your great city-Henry Ward Beecher (ap plause) were with us toduy thut he migat again champion the cause of the people In their greut tight. Any man would whose sympathies were on the side of hu manity, my friends. (Applause.) We nre opposing an eiiemv that never fought an open tight. (A voice: "They never went to tho wai.") We are Hunting an enemy that wns never honest In lis dealings with the people. We ale lighting an enemy that has ever sought to avoid the real is sue and tight the battle on some other. IX DEFENSE OF THE FLATFOKM. Hcfore addressing myself to the money question 1 desire to suy something In re gard to the plunks of our platform whl'-h have been assailed by tho enemy. 1 only speak of thun because persons In the ltev I ..!. 11..., ., I..,,... ,.uOu.l an.,ntl..i .,N them, ami sought to twist them Into u meaning never intended, and to give them an Interpretation which they will not bear. Mr. Bryan then read the plank de nouncing federal interference and de clared it as mild in tone when viewed by the side of the plank on the inviola bility of state rights In the Lincoln platfotm of IStio. Continuing, Mr. Bry an said: iNow, my friends, If our platform Is wrong I want thee Republicans to repu diate Abraham Lincoln (applause), be cause It you take Abraham Lincoln from Hie Republican party you have taken from It Its most Hauled memory, my friends. (Applause.) Now let me call your attention to an other thing they complain of. They suy we criticise the Supreme court. Let un read you what we say on that subject, land the speaker quoted the plunk In the Chleugo platform denouncing the Supreme court for Its decision against the income tax. J What criticism is there? 1 cull at tention to the fact that the court over, ruled tin- decision ot a hundred years. It Is a f ict. Haven't we a liKht to mention a fact? We duclure that congress ought to use all the coiistltiillnnul power that remains. Let them Insist that having taken part we dare not use what they left. "We demand lliut congress shall use such power us may com from n reversal by the couit us It may be hereafter con stltuttd." Hus no court hereafter the right to reverse the decision of this court? If not, what light had this court to re vel se the courts for one hundred years before it? (Applause.) This court cluing cs from time to time; Jii'lges die or resign, and new Judges take their places. Is it nut possible, my friends, that fuiu'e Judges may adhere to precedents of u hun dred years instead of adhering to a deci sion tendered by a majority of one, and I hut one changed his mind In two months? Evoiy time a lawyer goes Into court and asks for a reversal of u decision of the court and It is not un lnfiequent thing every time a lawyer does it he attacks the correctness of the decision which he desires to have reversed. Let me read lo you w hit ihe Republican platform said about declsioui of the Supreme court in 1MW: "We condemn the recent opening of the Afrk.ni slave trade under the cover of cur national flag, aided by perversions of Judicial power." Thut is wnat that plal I'ovm said; it declared that a decision of the court wns a perversion of Judicial pcwei. There Is no language in our plat f'.nm that is ns harsh on the Supicme court as that Republican platlotm. QUOTF.3 LINCOLN. My friends, on these two questions where we aie assailed by tho Republl-ans today we have not taken as emphatic a stand us the Republican puny took in the lit hi platform upon which ll elected a presi dent of the United States. Let mo toll to you now what Abraham Lincoln said about the Supreme court. This is In his Initiiaiiidl address: "1 do not forget the position assumed by some that consti tutional questions are to be decided by the Supreme court nor do I deny that such decisions must be binding on any case upon the put lies to the sun us to the ob ject of that suit." The next paragraph was quoted and then Mr. Bryan said: Mr. Lincoln says that If It is meant to be asserted that the Supieine court hus a riaht 10 determine the policy of the peo ple of great questions, that they will have re-signed our government Inio flu hands of Supreme court. Our putfoim is not as lush as the language of Abiuham Lin. coin. 1 quote these authorities, my friends, In order thai you muy ull see how lar-fetched Is the criticism that Is levelled oglnust us I quote these In older thut you muy see that the very men who used the criticisms aiiaiii-t us iniisi, In order to do so, aban don their Republican platform upon which Lincoln was elected. (Applause.) Now, our opponents say that we nre op posed to the enforcement of law. 1 deny It. 1 siand as the candidate of three par lies. 1 do not speak of myself as an Indi vidual because the Indlvidiiul Is lost In a campaign of representative character rf the candidate. But, my friends. I want to say to you that the feur that Is expressed is not a fear that If elected thut 1 will not enforce the law. 1 have said It before- 1 say It again, if by the suffrages of mv countrymen I am placed In that position, which Is the highest position In the gift of the people or the world, every law shull be enforced ugnlnst the great ns well ns against the small. (Great applause.) it Is not a fear of lawlessness, my friends. Think of men who have transgressed the law being afraid that there will be a lax enforcement of the law within that or men who have considered themselves greater than those who are afraid the government will not be good enough, F0RAKER TO TAKE THE STUMP. Will Speak for Mckinley in Ohio, In diana, Illinois and Iowa. Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 23. Charles L. Kurtz, chairman of the Republican state central committee, has announc ed that Senator-elect Foraker would spend the first two or three weeks of October In a campaigning tour through the west. He will ("peak at Jackson, Ohio, Fat urday, and at Dayton Sept. 2it. From there he will so to Indiana and thence to Illinois and Iowa. The dates of the meetings which he will address are nut yet fixed. He will also speak in other western states. Threaten to Blow I'p Bnlldlncs. 'London, Sept. 23. A Brussels dispatch to tho Chronicle says that the authorities of Rotterdam have received an anony mous letter threatening to destroy all of the public buildings there with explosives unless the Irish prisoners, Kearney and ' names, aife unsratea SENATOR HILL'S EARNEST APPEAL He Beseeches tbe Braves of Tammany Not to Desert Him. SENATOR'S IMPASSIONED SPEECH In a Voice Husky with Emotion tho Stntesmnu falls I'pon His Old I'ricuds tc Stand by Him in the Hour of Trial The Braves Arc Impressed. New York, Sept. 23. The meeting; of the Democratic state committee at the Hoffman house last night wus the sole topic of conversation ut the various political headquarters this morning. Senator Hill's friends says he nmile an Impassioned speech last night. me of his friends cn the committee said it was the speech of his life. He be sought the Tammany braves not to desert him now. "Men of Tammany Hall." said he, "are you going to desert me now? For four long years, while I was governor of the Knipire state, 1 stood by you and gave you what you asked. Are you, men of Tammany, going to desert me now?" The senator's voice was husky as he spoke and his speech made a great im pression on the braves. Senator Hill would not see any re porters today. John C. Sheehan, the leader of Tam many hall, was In a mild mood this morning, and very reluctant to discuss last night's meeting. All Mr. Sheehan would say was that he thought every thing would end harmoniously. Senator Thomas K. Urudy, who Is one of the committee appointed to wait on Mr. Thacher, says that the com mittee was only instructed to notify Mr. Thacher. "The committee may, however," said he. "In its address in corporate a copy of the Chicago plat form." If this Is done It would Indicate that Mr. Thacher will be asked If he will support the Chicago platform. VETERANS' REUNION.

He sold: "I found the situation In the west fur brighter nnd better thun 1 hud ex pected. The cause of sound money is gaining ground out there. I feel great ly encouraged by my experience and observation among the people of the west' "How were your audiences?" "They were large ami enthu"! istlo. In Chicago I had a tremendous audi ence. In Omaha I had as great u crowd to speak to ns I had at Madison Square garden. There will be some Ids Blirpiises in the west. The s-uind money sentiment is growing and politi cal conditions are Improving dully." PLOT TO WRECK AND THEN ROB. Passengers on n .Mackinaw Train Have a Narrow F.scnpc Grayling. Mich., Sept 23. The Mack Inuw train was partly wrecked two miles south on Oruyllng hill early this morning. The baggage and mail cars were ditched nnd the pmoklnsr enr de railed, but no one was Injured. The spikes had been removed from the truck and a rail pried in six inches. It is supposed this was done to wreck the north bound train -which runs at a terrific rate of speed down the hill, and that robbery wus the motive of the wreckers. Sheriff Chalker has arrest ed two suspicious characters and is scouring the woods. IN MEMORY OF EUGENE FIELD. Committee of Missouriuns in Charge of the Monument Plan.
