THE QUESTION OF TRUSTS He Says That Big Corporations Are Indispensable Instruments of In dustry, but That Evil Tendencies Should Be Checked by Law The Whole Trend of the Nation Is To ward Expansion It Is Impossible to Save Our Honor or Restore Or der in the Philippines Save Through Victory. Akron, O., Sept. 2 1. The opening ot tlu- campaign hero In Ohio today was made memorable by the masterly dis cussion of the Issues of the day by Governor Roosevelt, of New York. When the train bearing the hero of San Juan arrived at the station the whole city of Akron and thousands of visitors trom neighboring plaees were there to meet him and take him by the hand. He was eiual to the occasion, and was evidently pleased with the marked attention paid him. As soon ..s he en me out of the ear crV. of Hoosevelt' and "Teddy" were ta'oti up by the throng, and he was fairly lifted Into his carriage. So great was the Interest In the distinguished guest that the order of speaking was re versed and Hoosevelt placed llrst, as the hour was growing late when the parade reached the stands at Grace park. "Here, as In the parade, he was the Hon of the hour, nnd his speech dlclted the greatest enthusiasm. His oulck, nervous and Intense'' delivery made a great hit with the crowd. Governor Roosevelt's Speech. Governor Hoosevelt said In pa"': I come to speak to you because wo recognize throughout the nation that the contest this year In Ohio Is not, and cannot be, anything but u national contest. It Is Idle to say It la local yes. and worse than Idle It Is dishon est to make such an assertion, where the democratic platform lays Its es pecial stress upon national questions. If a party raises an Issue which It knows Is a false issue, merely fop the hope of carrying an election, then that party shows in the most striking way that It is the enemy of the country nnd unlit to be Intrusted with Its govern ment. This Is just what the Democratic party In Ohio has done at this time, and Just what Its leaders, national anil local, from the top down, are doing when they speak of expansion, on trusts and on free silver. It Is the sin cere belief of all right minded men who have the welfare of the nation close at heart, that the position taken by the Ohio Democracy, speaking In reality for the national Democracy In this campaign, is one destructive of na tional prosperity at home and of na tional honor abroad. They wish to discuss the question of trusts, an economic question, and of expansion, which Is really the question of upholding abroad the honor of tho Hag and the Interests of the nation, and of making us rise levgl to our duties as a world power. They hope to avoid much discussion of the silver question much discussion of their ad vocacy of a dishonest dollar trusting that thereby they shall be enabled to say to the believers In free silver that they nre heartily In favor of it. and yet to fool the men who stand for sound finance by explaining to them that that qu"st!on Is really relegated to the rear and Is not a live Issue. Question of Trusts. Our opponents denounce trusts. Hut they propose not one remedy that ould nut make the situation ten times ' oise than at its worst It now Is. i have read thiough carefully the pel ches of Mr. Hrynn andof bis fellows to find out what they propose to do. 1 have found plenty of vague denunel dtlou. X have not found so much as en attempt to formulate a national policy of relief. In the Democratic platform In Ohio Just two measures of i -lief are proposed the first that you should change the tariff because It t'.u iirs ti'usts, and the second that you bliuuld coin silver In the ratio of six teen to one without regard to the ae ti"ii of any other nation. They pretend that tho tariff favors trusts. They know well that the great est trusts In this country, the Stand ard Oil and Sugar trusts, are utterly unaffected by the tariff. They know well that the trust with which there; is the most widespread and deepest dissatisfaction, the Reef trust, Is utter ly unaffected by the tariff; and In my own state one of the largest trusts, the Ice trust (which Is said to have as Its most prominent member and promoter that anient anti-trust champion nnd advocate of Mr. Hryan, Mr. Richard Croker) Is also wholly unaffected by the tariff. Six years ago you were under the kmd ot tatifr to which they now ask i-n to return. And you were suffering from tho threat of free coinage tho threat which they now revive. Are tin people of this country so short-sighted that they forgot the miseries of six years ago'.' Do they forget the bread riots, the poverty, tho squalid want, even of those able anil anxious to work? Views on Expansion, our opponents throughout the nation, and in particular here In Ohio, propose h a method of attacking trusts to c.eddle with the tariff, which would mean economic disaster to the masses, and let debase the coinage, which. In addition to even more frightful eco nomic disaster, would mean national dishonor. When they come to the sec ond plank in their platform, the ques tion of expansion, they udvocuto the dUhonor of tha American arms and the trailing of the American flag In tho dust. They place themselves outside thp rank of proper party opponents and make, themselves morsly the one- iContlnued on Paso 3. DEWEY DAY PROGRAMME. Arrangements for Reception of the Admiral Completed.

INTERVIEW PUBLISHJla) IN THE NEW YORK SUN. A Peculiar View of fhe Situation nt Manila The Question of Prolong ing the War in Order to Maka Non Combatants Sick of Independence The Ar&wer Given Iir.ittljccnt Fil ipinos Who Desired Protejlloa. From the Now York Sun. Manila, Sept. 23, 10 p. m. General Otis said today In regard to the Fili pino offer to release certain American prisoners that he believed it was in tended as a bluff to pluy on the sym pathy of foreigners. General Otis, as has been stated before In these ,11s patches, has repeatedly released Fili pino prisoners of war; In fact, he baa already set over 2,000 of them at llb crtv. In order to test Agulnaldo's good faith the Spanlurds todaj asked Gen eral Otis to authorize the sending o' a steamer to Dagupan to get the Spanish prisoners there and transport them to Spain. Agulnaldo has offered to re lease these prisoners. General Jnra mlllo, who Is In charge of Spanish af fairs, said that at the beginning of August the Insurgents had fi,700 Span ish prisoners, Including 400 ofllcers. Since that time SO per cent, of the prisoners had been starved. Each man gets only five cents a day for his food allowance. General Jaramlllo recently received a letter from General Pena, urging tho Spanish commissioner to use every en deavor to secure the release of the Spanish prisoners. Among other things ho said: "If this thing does not end In a few months there will bo few left to tell the tale." The Sun correspondent had a long Interview today with General Otis about the state of affairs in the Philip pines. The general, In reply to ques tions, said: Tilings are going alocg in a very satis factory manner. Our own forces are In good condition. We have plenty of com missary supplies hero or on the way. Wo also have all tho transportation facili ties necessary either lure or on the way. When the weather conditions permit wi shall bo ready to mako an acllvo cam paign. The insurgents nre having n hard time holding their foices together. They havu no commissariat and no voluntary sup port from their own l eople. Reports are constantly coming to me from all parts ot the Island showing dis sension, demoralization and disintegra tion among their troops and the dissatis faction of the people with the "insurrec tionary government." Letters como to mo dally from pcrsoni of education and Intelligence, men of property and prominence among the Fil ipinos, asking me to rend troops to pro tect "us from our army." They call their "army of liberation" nothing but bands of robbers nnd cut-throat. Tho southern and northern provinces have repeatedly begged protection from me. I have replied to these people: "Whnt's tho matter with Independence? Go back and enjoy It a while longer." Filipinos Tiring of Independence. Continuing the discussion of the situ ation General Otis developed a new viewpoint. He said: The question Is whether, after all. It would be wise to hasten the ending of the Insurrection. With the exception of a few robbers and adventurers these people grow sicker and more disgusted with in dependence every day they have it. Even the leaders of the Insurgents are trying to get away. Several ofllcers have come to Manila; others havo sent their fam ilies here. Pedro Paterno, the former president of the Filipino cabinet, has his entiro family, numbering about fifty per sons here. Others have asked the same' prvilege. Sometimes 1 reply to such re quests that tho applicants should make tho most of independence while they have It. t believe that If tho Insurrection Is not ended too soon tho Filipinos will bo so heartily sick of Independence that thero will never be anv more trouble on that scgro. Independence was a craze with these people. They did not understand what It meant, but their worship of the Idea amounted almost to fanaticism. Now that they really know what their Independence means, It is tho best object lesson they ever had, nnd It will not be necessary to conttnuo It much longer to forever settle the question. It Is not surprising that the Filipinos thought they could whip tho Americans. They defeated the Spanish under General Jaramlllo nt Zapote and they licked Gen eral Rlos at Novaleta when they wero armed only with bolos. They expected to repeat this performance with us. Agulnaldo had eight months In which to organize his campaign. He accom plished a great deal In that Mine. Ho sent his Tagals to every island ot r,r,y size nnd Importance throughout the archipelago and got bis government op crating so thoroughly that the poonle cannot fall to understand what such self government means. Other Phases. General Otis then went on to speak of other phases of the situation. He said it wus almost impossible to over estimate the encouragement, support and assistance that the actions and talk of the antl-expanslonlsts In the United States had given to the Insur gents. These men. he said, put Into the heads of the rebel3 that congress would do something against the con tinuance of the war. Ho (General Otis) was kept well Informed us to what was going on at the Insurgent head quarters. He knew that the insurgent leaders had been exhorting the Fili pinos to hold out until September, on the plea that a special session of the American congress had been called for the purpose of granting Independence to the Filipinos. When that failed the plea was changed, and it was said that this action would be taken when congress met In regular session. Tills Idea of congressional Interfer ence with General Otis' uctlons or tho president's plans Is so widespread here that it has somewhat affected even the Influential Filipinos In .Manila. "When Congress meets." says Gen eral Otis, "should the president recom mend non-action In Philippine affairs, or should Congress refrain from In terferrlng It would bo u hard blow to tho rebel lenders. If congress paeans a resolution that there shall bo no leg islation concerning the Philippines until the Insurrection Is ended by ab solute and unconditional sun-under, that will be the death blow to the In surgent pause." In other words the people at homo can do as much to restore peace in these Islands as all the military force that could be sent here. It becomes a question now whether loyal, patriotic Americans will rebuke tho traitors who have? been nslstlng tho country's armed enemy. Agulnaldo's Hope in Luzon. The settlement everywhere depends upon the conditions of affairs In Lu zon. All tho southern Islands are uwnltlng the result of the fight here and will abide by It. The Inhabitants of Mindanao have just made propo sition that tho American olilclals should go there and run things, but they say it must be understood that In caso Agulnaldo wins his fight In Luzon the Americans will evnctiate Mindanao nnd allow Agulnaldo to run the affairs of thnt Island. HUNGARIAN HILARITY. A Gonernl Fight in Which Two Men Are Shot. Allentown, Pa., Sept. 24. A celebra tion attending an Hungarian wedding at Catasaqua, last night, resulted In a general fight, In which two men wero shot and several others were badly used up. The men who were shot are John and Michael Voser, brothers, of Egypt, Pa. They are now In the Allen town hospital and their condition Is serious. The others who were Injured were not serliusly hurt. Saturday morning George Knphagen, a young Hungarian butcher, of Cata saqua, was married1 to Ann Oil, of Hokondaqun, by a priest of the Ortho dox Greek church. The couple rented a house and had ordered a large quan tity of beer to be delivered there for the nuptial celebration. Many Hun garians from the surrounding towns called, and for a few hours all went well. Hefore midnight, however, some of the guests became hilarious and some got Into a fighting mood. The Voser brothers, who belong to the United Greek church faction and who had been warned not to attend the iveddlng, got Into an argument with the Orthodox faction over religion und a general fight was the result. Knives were flourished, beer glasses flew through tile air and then some one turned out the lights. The next instant pistols were put In use and John Voser was shot In the abdomen and Michael Voser received a bullet In the head. They lay on the floor for half an hour before any attention was paid to them. The police were notified and this morning thev arrested John Chlmsay, who admitted having fired one shot, nnd another Hungarian, who was heard to say that he would clo some shooting. The prisoners were taken to the jail at Easton tonight. , VALENCIA ARRIVES. Brings the Montana Volunteers From Manila. San Francisco Sept. 24.

EGGS FOR THE SPEAKERS The Voices of the Anti-War Party Drowned in Cheer 4 for Chamber lain Henry Hyndman, ths Social Leader, a Particular Object of An imosity Mounted Police Called Out to Disperse tho Mo'. London, Sept. 21. The attempt to hold a pro-Doer anti-war demonstra tion In Trafalgar square, London, this nfternoon. resulted In a drastic fail ure. Thousands assembled, but not to support the speakers. On the con trary the crowd waved union jacks and sang tho national anthem and "Rule iirlttannla" like mighty Invoca tions. The speakers, who were quite Inaud ible, were received with groans, de cayed apples and eggs and other mis siles. There were cheers for Mr. Chamberlain, secretary of state for the colonies and hisses for President Kruger. Some soldiers who were pre sent wore carried shoulder high by the crowd. There were several rushes for the platforms, which were surrounded by opponents of the demonstration, who yelled fiercely. Finally the mounted police were telephoned for to clear the square. Hntons were used freely, sev eral persons wero trodden upon by tho horses and thirty arrests were made. The opponents of the meeting finally proposed resolutions In support of tho government's policy, which wore car ried amid wild enthusiasm. This evening the promoters of the demonstration held a meeting in pri vate and after long discussion carried the following resolutions: "In consequence of the organized In terruption of the anti-war demonstra tion in the Trafalgar square today, fomented by a section of the yellow and stock jobbing press, this commit tee resolved to hold a public meeting In one of the largest metropolitan halls at an early date." Second Attempt. The list of speakers included none of special Influence, most of them being labor leaders or socialists. The mem bers of the peace association had no opportunity to address tho crowd. They were saluted with execrations as soon n th,r ,.,i .,.. !. .i wore obliged to stand smiling compla cently during tho singing of the na tional airs and the wild cheering for Mr. Chamberlain. Their attempts to I put their resolutions to a vote were the morcBt dumb show. Henry M. Hyndman, the social lead er, was a particular object of animos ity. He was menaced with a forest of walking sticks when he tried to speak. The shouldering of a soldier and marine, their hands clasped, In a pro cession around the square, provoked frantic enthusiasm and was altogether an impressive Incident, the multitudes bursting Into the song "Soldiers of tho Queen." On many of the passing omnibuses which carry union Jacks the passen gers lifted the flags from their sockets and waved them vigorously. Long before the Intended hour all the proposed speakers had disap peared. -' AUSTRIAN CABINET OUT. Unable to End Dispute with. Hun gary, Ministers Resign. Vienna, Sept. 21.

Washington, Sept. 24. Acting Sec retary Allen of the navy department received a cable from Rear Admiral Watson toiiay giving a brief account of the engagement ut Sublg bay. It Is dated the 21th, at Manila, nnd says; "Mandora discovered heavy gua mounted opposite Kalaklan Point, Su blg bay; exchanged shots with Char leston. Sent Charleston, Monterey, Concord and Zaflro with detachment of marines and sailors from Haltlmoro to capture and destroy. Attacked in stil gents' position 23rd, after bombard ment, landing party carried entrench ments, dispossessed enemy and de stroyed one sixteen centimetre Krupp gun.
