LAST NIGHT’S BIG MEETING
Greeting Sent to the “Gallant
Leader of the Democratic Party,”
\Villinm J. 'Bryun—A Crowded
House and Lots of Enthusiasm.
New York, Oct. 6.—-With yells o‘t defi—
ance and denunciation for Tammany
Had, and with jeers and boots for
Richard Croker'and the French ,ball
ticket nominated at the Tammany. con-
vention, the acre of people who
jammed themselves into Cooper Union
last night, and acres more who
couldn’t get in, notified Henry George
{hat he was their candidate for Mayor
of the Greater New York, and told him
«hat he was the only Democratic can-
didate. They were the Simon-pure
Democrats, the believers in the Chi-
:ago platform, the supporters to a man
of William J. Bryan, an they yelled
iheir approval of it and their candidate
until they had no voices left 'to yell
with.
Henry George was brought into the
big hall after the platform ”had been ,.
read, and then followed a tumultuous
lime. Men, and women, too, leaped up:
and down, waving hats, coats, ‘um-
brella‘s and handkerchiefs, and yelled
as if their lives depended upon it.
George received notification of his
nomination by four separate organiza-
tions, the United Democracy, the
Democratic Alliance, the People’s party
and the Manhattan Single Tax Club.
in a
speech entirely characteristic.
The Platform.
The platform of the George men is
headeflz” “Declaration of Principles.
It says in part:
We, Democrats of Greater New York,
in mass meeting assembled, do reaffirm
our adherence to the creed of Democ-
racy as set forth in the platform
adopted by the National Convention of
the Democratic party in Chicago, July
5), 1896; we declare our allegiance to the
principles enunciated in that document,
pronouncing them the formal expres-
sion of the spirit of true Democracy.
We send our greeting to the gallant
leader of the Demobratic party, Will-
iam Jennings Bryan, and we applaud
the earnestness of purpose, the indom-
ltable courage and the fidelity to the
principles of his party which have
made him a beacon to which Demo—
crats may turn with confidence for
guidance and for light when leaders
about them waver cr desert.
We declare that the functions of
street railway transpdrtation, the light-
ing of the streets and homes of the
people, whether by gas or electricity,
the carriage of, the people by ferries
about the waterways of Greater New
York the facilitation of the inter?
change of speech by telephones or tel-
egraphs, are all purely municipal func-
tions, things which can betteribe done
by organized society than by individ—
uals.
We are here to demonstrate that
what Democrats shall or shall 'not
think and speak of is not to be deter-
mined on English ,race tracks, nor in
conclaves of self-constituted
We are here to declare that
only by wresting control of the Demo-
cratic party from the hands of the
paid agents of monopolistic million-
aires can the city control the corpora-
tions, and not the corporations the
at .
E y George’s Acceptance.
Mr. George was loudly cheered when
he arose to respond to the notification
of the committee. He said, in part:
“The City Convention has acted. It
has registered the will of—Whom? Of
Mr. Croker (hisses and groans) from
the English racetracks; a man whom
you know (a voice, “a murderer and
thief”); who has grown rich on what?
He dictates the Democratic nomina-
tion. Is it the Democratic nomination?
As a Democrat, I say ‘No.’ (A voice:
“You are right.”) The real Democracy
—the Democracy of Thdmas Jefferson
I hold it, tenders me the nomination
to-day. I have sought by every means
to have some one else come forward
and take this place. I would gladly
support him. It was not until it was
shown to me that unless I took this
nomination Mr. Croker’s representative
must poll the voters of the Democracy
of the Greater New York that I con-
sented. -
“Now, I accept. (Great applause).
Such power as I have, such strength
as is left me, such ability as I well can
yield, is for your cause—the greatest of
causes. (Great applause).
“I am a. Democrat. Not a silver
Democrat or a gold Democrat, but a.
Democrat who believes in the cardinal
principle ,of Jeffersonian Democracy
(applause), to whom this great truth
ls self-evident, that all men are created
equal. (Great applause.) On that
principle I stand."
The moment Mr. George had finished
the crowd on the stage gathered
around him, and in a minute the police
made way for him to get out of the.
hall. He was followed by Mrs. George
and her daughters. YVhen it was 59:31
that the candidate was gone- again and
early, there
were more calls for Mrs. Mary Eliza-
beth Lease. While they were still hot,
Shairman O’Neill, who had been escort—
ing Mr. George out, rushed back and
up to the desk and announced: “Ladies
But the crowd'
was reluctant to go, and it was several
minutes later, when the lights had‘al-
ready ’begun to go out, that the rush
for the open air began.

When an incident like the following
occurs right here at home it is bound
to carry weight with our readers.
When so many strange occurrences go
the rounds of the press, are published
as facts when the intelligent reader
knows they cannot be true, there is no
wonder that people become skeptical.
On one subject skepticism is rapidly
disappearing. This is due to the act.-
ual personal experience of our citizens,
and their public utterances regarding
them. The doubter must doubt‘ no
more in the face of such evidence as
this. The public statement of a reput-
able citizen living right—here at home,
one whom you can see every day, leaves
no ground for the skeptic to stand on.
Mrs. John Grace, of 32 Plattsville
.avenue, says: “I am well up in years,
and for quite along time I have suffered
with my back and kidneys. The pain
often extended down into my limbs and
was frequently so severe that I sup-
posed I had rheumatism. I was advised
to use Doan’s Kidney Pills, and began
taking them. I think the pills are a
good thing, they cured me.”

MRS. Mc ENROE cars A DIVORCE. I
Allowed to Reknme Her Maiden
Name by the Court,
New Haven, Conn., Oct. 6.—Mrs.
Eleanor F. McEnroe, daughter of Capt.
Fred J. Peck of this city and grand-
daughter of Commodore Richard Peck
of.the New Haven and New York
steamboat line, is now free from her
husband, Eugene F. McEnroe of New
York. Judge Roraback of the Superior
Court granted 'her,'a divorce in this
city Tuesday afternoon. The divorce
was obtained on the ground of intoler-
able cruelty, and Mrs. McEnroe was
permitted to change to the name of
Peck. f
The defendant in the case, Eugene
F. McEnroe, is a. relative of Richard
Croker. He is chief clerk to Register
William Sohmer, of New York, and it
is said that McEnroe procured the of-
fice through Croker. The divorce case
was heard on an ex-parte hearing last
Friday. McEnroe had entered a con-
test to his wife's complaint, but with—
drew it after she'had agreed to strike
out infidelity as one of the causes and
leave the sole, cause of complaint as
intolerable cruelty.
According to Mrs. McEnroe’s state-
ment her husband was insanely jealous
of her and became enraged when an-
other man would ‘notice her. They
were married in April, 1895, in St. Pat-
rick’s Cathedral, New York, by Arch-
bishop Corrigan, a special dispensation
for the ceremony having been obtained
from the Pope. A wgdding supper at
Delmonico's followed the marriage.
The McEnroes separated about a year
ago, and since then Mrs. McEnroe has
lived with Commodore Peek -in this
city.
ANNEXATION OF HAWAII.
Senators Proctor and Lodge Say
that Union Is Assured Practically.
Boston, Oct. 6.—United States Senator
Redfield Proctor, of Vermont, who was
in this city yesterday, said that, in his
opinion, Hawaii would be admitted to
the United States at the next session of
Congress. ‘
“I think,” he said, “that the great
majority of Americans are in favor of
acquiring control of the islands, if for
nothing else but to keep them out "of
foreign hands. Annexation in some
form is the only way of rea'ching that
end.”
Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, is
credited with saying that he looks upon
the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands
as practically accomplished.
“The treaty,” he said, will be taken
up at once, when Congress assembles
in December, and I think that there is
an easy two-thirds majority in the Sen-
ate in favor of its ratification. If it
should appear probable that an opposi-
tion is developing, sufficient to defeat

Shcehan and Croker Make ‘Up.
New York, Oct. '6.——John C. Sheehan
ls still the ostensible leader of Tam-
many Hall. He did not resign his place
yesterday, but he- was successful in
making it apparent that Richard
Croker and not John C. Sheehan is to
be responsible for the Tammany Hall
ticket and the management of the
campaign this year.
That is what Mr. Sheehan was striv-
ing for from the time that it became
apparent 'that Mr. Croker had set his
heart on the nomination of a ticket
which Mr. Sheehan felt was unusually
weak, and which was bitterly opposed
by a majority of the members of the
Executive Committee. He suggested to
Mr. Croker that he did not’care to be
held responsible for the ticket, and
that he had better resign the leader-
ship. Mr. Croker opposed this, because
he knew that the resignation of Leader
Sheehan at this time would be proof
positive to the’ rank and file that the
stories of trouble among .the leaders
were true; '
Albany Railway Plundered.

Railway Company has" lost more than

General Manager Edgar S. Fassett be-
gan-to suspect that the company was

railway company; Electrical Inspector
Peter Brannigan and Conductors John
Ryan, Cornelius Tierney, Thomas Noo-
nan and Jacob Mullen.
Warrants are out for the arrest of
five other conductors, and it is ’sus-
pected that more are implicated. as the
Pinkerton men have not completed
their work. The operations of the em-
plo'yes were unique and escaped detec-
tion for over a year.
