Candidates. Laboring With the People Who Cast the Votes. BRYAN STILL IN CHICAGO. He Speaks to Business Men and Women In the Windy City—Major McKin- ley Visited by Bufi‘alonians. Other Political Chitchat. ' CHICAGO, Oct. 29 ——William J. Bryan began today’s programme of nearly a dozen additional Chicago speeches with a speech in a Polish hall half across the city from the one in which he spoke last night. To- day’s initial meeting, and the principal one, was a woman’s gathering at St. Stanislaus hall, on Noble street. Mr. Bryan was greeted with an audience of 5,000 persons, the greater portion being ladies. After the enthusiastic applause which greetedfihim on his arrival-had sub- sided Mrs. Jennie Barzinski, assisted by Mrs. Frances, Kowalski, introduced the candidate to the audience, and he spoke in part as fOIIOWs: “LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—Thls cam- paign has witnessed not only a great in- crease of interest among the people, but it has witnessed a deeper interest among the women of this land than is usually manifested in a political campaign. I have had the privilege of addressing sev- eral audiences this year composed entirely or almost entirely of women, and I am glad to be permitted to talk to the mother, and the wife, and the sister, because their interests are wrapped up in the interests of the country. No policy can injure this country without injuring them, no policy can benefit. this country without benefit- ing them, and in any test where a ques- tion of right or wrong is presented I be- lieve that our wives and mothers are so quick to detect what is just and what is unjust, if not more quick than we, be- cause, studying these questions, a man may be surrounded by influences which rather prevent than aid his understanding of a subject, and there may be influences which pervert his judgment, whereas the woman may be able to examine the ques- tion, and, with her instincts, detect where the wrong lies. And I know this—that if a woman’s conscience is once directed against a thing there is nothing that can overcome that conscience. If in this campaign we can convince the women that justice is on our side, I know that in every household there will be a wife or mother who will say to the father of that family, ‘Coercion cannot be permitted to interfere with the exercise of the rights of citizenship.’ If we can convince the wom- an of the justice of our cause, there is no campagin fund, however large, that can bribe the husbands, and the brothers, and the sons, who go forth with the inspira- tion of these women behind them. ” Issues Discussed. Continuing Mr. Bryan said, “I want you to distinguish between the disturb- ance of law and order, between objections to government itself, and objections to the abuses of government." Mr. Bryan then discussed at considerable length the money issue. » A big meeting of business men at Bat- tery D armory on the lake front claimed Mr. Bryan’s attention as quickly as he could be hustled through the several miles of streets from St. Stanislaus’. Long be- fore the hour for the meeting Battery D was packed. The seats had been removed from the body of the hall, and the audi- ence stood solidly shoulder to shoulder. The great girders that supported the roof fur- nished seats for a number of venturesome admirers, and the galleries were packed. The hall was crowded to its utmost limit. General C. H. Howard called the meeting to order. Mr. Bryan received an ovation that lasted more than five minutes. His address was wildly applauded. Chairman Kurtz’s Claim. COLUMBUS, 0., Oct. 29. -— Charles L. Kurtz, chairman of the Republican state executive committee, gave out the first statement of his estimate of the result in this state he has made in the campaign. It was in the form of a telegram to Mark A. Hanna, chairman of the national Re- publican committee. The telegram is as follows: “Ohio will give McKinley a larger ma- jority than she ever gave to a loading can- didate on state or national ticket, with the possible exception of that given to Brough for governor in 1863.” The majority given Brough was 101,- 098. The next largest majority in the history of Ohio politics was that given to S. M. Taylor for secretary of state two years ago, 64,000. Lincoln, when he was a candidate for re-election to the presi- dency, had a majority of 60,000 in this state. _ Vice President Stevenson Ill. CHICAGO, Oct. 29.—While sitting on the platform at the Bryan political meeting held at Tattersails, Vice President Ste- venson was overcome by heat and was compelled to withdraw from the stage. Fearing that he might faint, the vice president had, his cab called and went at once to the Palmer House. On leaving the stage door at the place of the mass meeting Mr. Stevenson asked the assist- ance of a policeman who was on duty in that part of the house, and the policeman saw him safely away in his cab. After ar- riving at the hotel the vice president still felt the effects of his illness, but he was able to go to his apartments without fur- ther assistance, and he did not think it necessary to call a physician. No serious results are anticipated. The Campaign In Missouri. ST. LOUIS, Oct. 29.—Five special trains, each bearing a branch of the McKinley Sound oMoney league, left Union station today fora thorough speechmaking tour of Missouri and Kansas. The main lines of the Missouri Pacific, the Wabash, the Missouri, Kansas and Texas, the Frisco and, the Burlington railways in the two states will be traversed. Every part of both states will be reached by the special trains. The rural districts as mil as the cities will be flooded with arguments for the gold standard and protection. Elo- quent orators will speak from the car platforms at every step. Besides a list of speakers of national reputation each train carries tons of literature for distribution. The itinerary will consume five days. Bufl‘alonians at Canton. . CANTON, 0., Oct. Bil—Nine carloads of Buffalo people reached Canton today, coming via Cleveland, where they break- fasted after leaving the Buffalo boat. In the party was the Republican League club in handsome uniforms, headed by Powell’s Sixty-fifth Re lment. band; the Central Italian club, hg‘aded by Scinta‘s band, and a number of organized citizens, represent- ing the various interests of Buffalo. A l drizziing rain was falling when the party arrived, and the formal reception was held in the Tabernacle, where J. Emory Close made the introductory address, and Major McKinley responded. He was heartily applauded. ‘ Hamilton Fish Going Abroad. NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—Speaker Hamil- ton Fish, who has disappeared from poli- tics since his defeat for the gubernatorial nomination, was at the Fifth Avenue ho- tel today. He said he would start for Eu- rope on Nov. 14 and remain there two years. Of the outlook in the state Mr. Fish said, “I believe that McKinley will have 250,000 plurality and will carry New York city by about 20,000. In the Hudson river counties the Republican pluralities will be the largest on record. ’_’ Carlisle Loses His Vote. LOUISVILLE, Oct. 29.—-Mr. Carlisle will not vote next Tuesday, though the law would have permitted him to qualify him- self by registration. ’ He has spent the last two days in Louisville, and as this is the last day of the supplemental registration, - he loses his vote. He delivers the fourth of his series of Kentucky campaign speeches in this city at the auditorium tonight, and arrange- ments have been made to give him a most impressive welcome. To Send Student Voters Home. NEW HAVEN, Oct. 29.—A subscription list has been opened under the auspices of the Yale sound money committee for the purpose of raising funds with which to send to their homes students who are vot- ers. A communication in The Yale News of today says that men going home to vote would undoubtedly be excused from reci- tations. " DEATH BEFORE DISGRAOE. Fearing Arrest For Fraud, May “'in- tlirop Attempted Suicide. BROOKLYN, Oct. 29.——May Winthrop, a 17-year-old girl, lies unconscious in St. Mary’s .hospital today as the result of a wound inflicted by herself with a revolver. May lived at 121 Ralph avenue. This is a furnished room house, the tenants of which all know the young woman. In the course of a conversation with Mr. B. G. Way, 3 lodger, May expressed the fear that she would be arrested for passing a worthless check. ~ At 5 o’clock this morning Way heard the sound of a shot on the floor above that on which he occupied a room. Rushing up stairs, he broke in Miss Winthrop’s door and saw the girl lying on the bed un- conscious. Her head was lying in a. pool of blood, and beside her right and'lay a revolver. A wound in her r'fght breast showed where the bullet had struck. An ambulance was summoned, and the girl was taken to St. Mary’s hospital. The police say May passed a worthless check for $30 on a. dry goods merchant at Graham avenue and Broadway. She pur- chased $10 worth of goods, tendered the check in payment and received $20 in change. At the time she said the check was given her by E. Valentine of 1900 Lexington avenue, New York. The police say that some time ago Miss Winthrop passed aworthless check on a dry goods firm of New York. Valentine, it is said, made the amount good then. ‘I The girl’s parents live at Middle Valley, I. . Y. A \Voman Charged \Vith liIurder.

The Great New Yorker‘s Speeches in In- diana. and Illinois instructive and En- couraging to Democrats—His Stalwart Support Is “'inning Thousands of Votes to Palmernml Buckner in the Central \Vest—A Couv nciug Speaker. The speeches of ex-Govcrnor Roswell P. Flower of New York in Illinois and Indiana have been instructive and en- couraging to Democrats. They have been inspired by the faith of honest money and true constitutional Demo- cracy. The' solid Strength of Governor Flow- er’s character has given force to his speeches before the people. He is a. man of the people who has risen to BOSWELL P. FLOWER eminence and wealth by industry, thrift, enterprise and a. business career of integrity. He has been a. Democrat at all times and under all circum- stances. The speeches of Gov. Flower have attracted great attention. His audi- ences have been large. Their numbers have filled all the halls at which meet- ings were held. His speaking tour through the west has been one of the marked successful events of the cam- paign. Governor Flower addresses the in- telligence and candor of his audiences. He is a plain man, one Of the “common people,” to use Bryan’s phrase borrow- ed from some man orator of the past. His honest and homely eloquence is based on principles and facts. It has the power of conviction, ,while Bryan’s elo- quence is stagy, affected and has only the power of a dramatic recitation. Governor Flower is a grand specimen of the best Democracy. His personal" integrity, his career of labor, useful- ness and success, his honesty in the various public offices that he has held. the purity of his private life, render him conspicuous among the Democrat— ic statesmen and patriots of the period. In this campaign the existence of the Democratic party will be saved by those great leaders who have refused to join the Populist and silver fusion which has no element that is Demo- cratic. The Palmer and Buckner party Will be the Democratic party of the future. Governor Flower is' one of its most stalwart supporters. ‘ ""ch Gold More Stable Than Silver. "As long as gold, either from its intrinsic superiority as a metal, from its rarity or from the prejudices of mankind, retains so considerablo'a pro-eminence in value over silver as it has hitherto had, a nat- ural consequence of'this seems to be that its condition will be more stationary. The revolutions, therefore, which may take place in the comparative value of gold and silver will be changes in the state of the latter rather than in that of the for- mer.”—Alexander Hamilton. SILVER AND WHEAT. - Old Canard About Fluctuations of , Prices Again Exploded. TO the Editor of The World: I sent the following question to the Richmond Dispatch, the leading free silver journal in this state: ' To the Editor of The Dispatch: "I desire to know what relations ex- ist between the coinage of silver, free or otherwise, and the price of wheat or any other article in the markets of the world, or, in other words, how does the coinage of silver affect the intrinsic value of wheat or other articles of commerce? ’ “J. P. B., Lynchburg, Va.” The Dispatch replied as follows: An States are measured by silver. An ounce of silver will always buy a. bush- el of wheat or nine and a half pounds of cotton. The price of American wheat at Liverpool, where it competes with India. wheat, governs the price in New York. Say silver is 65.cents an! ounce in this country. England buys it at that and buys India wheat with it, and that would keep the price of American wheat at 65 cents. If England had to pay $1 an ounce, the India. wheatwOuld cost her $1 and wheat in the United States would be $1. If there,were the demand for silver that free coinage would create it'would soon go above 31 an ounce, and wheat go above $1 a bushel. The effect of free coinage ofsii- ver would be to increase the amount of money in circulation and that would increase the price of most articles bf ‘ ”commerce.” * Will you give your solution of the questions asked, as I think their reply misleading? ' J. P. B. [Facts furnish the most conclusive answer. If our Richmond contempo- rary's statement is correct, then wheat ought now to be worth only 64%; cents, as that is the price of an ounce silver. In fact, wheat is worth now about 70 cents. An ounce of silver will not now “buy a bushel of wheat.” During 1895 it would have bought more than a. bushel, for the average price of wheat then was only 61 cents, while that of silver was 65'cents. In 1892 an ounce of silver was-worth (average) only 87 cents. while a bushel. of wheat was ,‘worth $1.03. In that year an ounce of silver would not buy much more than three peeks of wheat, while in 1890, _when wheat averaged 83 cents and sil- ver $1.04, an ounce of silver would have bought considerably more than a. bush- el of wheat. In fact, there has been no single year from 1875 to 1896 when. the average price of a. bushel of wheatg was the average price of an ounce of silver. Each has gone up and down‘ wholly irrespective of the other. There is absolutely no causal relation be-, tween the two things. Each is govern-i ed in price by the law of supply and.! demand :.3 applied to itself.—Editor of the New Ygrk LWorld] Jackson Favofed a Gold Standard. “The progress of our gold coinage is creditable to the officers of the mint, and promises in a. short period to fur- nish the countrywitha. sound and port... able currency. “Engaged from day to day in their useful toils, they [workingmen] do not perceive that although their wages are nominally the same, are even some- what higher, they are greatly reduced in fact by the rapid increase of a spuri- ous currency, which, as it appears to make money abound, they are at first inclined to consider a. blessing. * ‘ ‘ It is not until the necessaries of life be- come so dear that the laboring classes cannot supply their want 'out of their wages that their wages rise.”-—-Andrew Jackson. Wheat and Silver Prices. ’Now, While silver has continued to fall, in spite of Mr. Bryan’s promise of free coinage, and his hint that if necessary :8. mint ,, could be established in every 5 city and village, wheat has risen rapid~ : ly. The law of supply and demand has I been at work in both cases. There is I an abundance of silver throughout the l world. Therefore silver is cheap.
