State where 1t is Tense, setting forth every
thing. Our duty and our wish is to exhibit
this country in all it's beauty and industries
to our Spanish friends. am afraid we be-
gan at the wrong end, as am afraid the In
dustries there will not come up to this IN
am sure they will be ready to meet as half /
way in everything. (Applause.) They |
stand ready to be with rs, and they. are
ready to come, and We say let them.
ALL we can do is to recommend, and |
All You can do lie to urge it upon your dis. |
tinguished Senator Hawlsy to accept our REQ |

going to have any. shall ask Congress to
provide that our magnificent trains be filed
with United States goods and their manufac-
lures and sent to our Southern Americans,
where they will be welcomed. (Applause.)
We can adopt currency, If 1t 80 to do, and

Mr.. Dewell then introduced Rev. Timothy
Dwight, who arose amid applause and said:
Mr.. President and gentlemen: You called
up Prof. Knapp to address you in the Span
ish language. If your committee Of arrange
ments had selected me for the same Office I
am sure your friends would not have appre-
ciated what said, although it might be by
my Iukiknu bPOhAAuk AIlou0os 0ub VI L u10
university. It ought to know everything.
Prof. Knapp knows Spanish, and someone
else in Yale knows everything. Uaughter)
One reason why Yale should be represented
is that it represents this nation. Educated
men and those interested in educa-
ton are interested in the university.
The University represents the value and
glory of education in every land. Yale has
also close and harmonious relation to the
city which is doing itself honor and honorinR
its guests here to right honor. Yale Univer-
sity has to- day harmony of spirit with the
city both wishing good for each other Jap
plause) and In the future this great institu
ton speaking for education, will 60 forward
with the city in any good work and give it,
its goodliest gifts. With these few words
extend my heartiest welcome as one of the
citizens of New Haven and America and bid
them God speed. (Applause.)
Mr.. Dewell then introduced Senior Mar
tinez Silva, of Columbia, who made q short
address, and was followed by Prof. Knapp,
who, in translating it said: He spoke of
having reached the end of their Connecticut
State and it's richness in industries, and
that they expected great things of you in the
future and bids you goodbye.
Mr.. III. Frank Tyler was then called, and
he, in speaking for New Haven, said: think
there is no city in the Union to which this
congress go distinctly appeals as to this city,
and for. two reasons. One that New Haven
is an industrious city, grown out of COM
mercia1 city. When New Haven was ship
ping town the places with which we traded
were the Spanish-speaking countries of
America. Fifty years ago to New Haven the
South American Spanish communities were a
sort of an FL Dorado. This is of particular
interest to New Haven as an industrial center
and of that am to talk to you. What we
Ao1da xuoc cont 70 hon,
but when we could no longer do that we
turned our energies to artificial articles, in
which we now daal. Let me say to you, gen.
tlemen, In q word, We sell 1t to you cheaper
than anyone else, and can sell everything al
most that is manufactured. We bid you God
speed in your work and trust that your mis-
sion will be accomplished (applause).
Senior Castellanos. of San Salvador, spoke
few words in which he said this was grand
country and one of grand political structure,
which allowed everyone their own form of
worship and political views. After the adj
dress ex-Mayor Lewis proposed three cheers
which were given with a will.
Lieutenant Governor S. E. Merwin then
responded to the toast of "Connecticut," and
after welcoming the guests to our State in a
few well chosen words he said: Our people
are industrious, and it tells us that our citi-
zens desire to know each other better. If
this congress brings forth new good we snail
all rejoice. You have seen our
industries and If the seed SOW
will be great in good work. May you carry
away with you something of lasting benefit
that will rebound with glory to our common
wealth.
General Merwin was followed by Senior A.
G. Calyo, who said: I would gather the
flowers from one end of our country to the
other and throw them to you for our well
come. Let me end by saying that hope this
congress will be success, and the greatest
ever held. (Cheers)
Chairman Dewell then called Hon. Joseph
r. Hawley, who, when the applause ceased,
said of the industries of the great republic:
I could bury you with statistics. but that
that we have extraordinary advan-
tages in climate, water, coal supply,
etc., of which we take advantage.
So we produce within our own borders 95
per cent. of all Its own people use, and sup
ply the world besides. The United States
advantages are the most magnificent ever Of
fered to man. In our ships we have the best
and also in our domestic articles.
The guests then adjourned to their palatial
cars at the depot. This forenoon they will
be in Springfield.
Genial Bridgeport Friend.
Senator D. NJ. Read, the warm hearted
president of the Bridgeport Chamber of Com
merce, attended the banquet last evening but
left for his home somewhat early. He had
been in New London during the day at the
opening of the Thames river bridge. This
morning he attends q meeting of the joint
committee in charge of the erection of the new
Bridgeport county jail. It will cost $50, 900.
Mr.. Read was the recipient, at the Chamber
dinner, of fine tribute from his warm personal
friend, of Aud Lang Syne, Mr.. William
Nicely, the dry goods merchant of this city.
The very handsome decoration of the Hype-
rion, with elegant potted plants and flowers
was by Dickerman.
Most Favorably Impressed.
The appearance of the visitors impressed
our citizens most favorably. They are capa-
BILE representatives, scholars and scientists,
who are well fitted to judge of our country,
its productions and industries. As says an
exchange: "They come to this country as the
guests of our government on . mission of
business. They have hides, coffee, sugar,
mahogany, wool and other products to sell.
They want of MS -four, machinery, firearms,
sewing machines, petroleum. cloths and
clothing, and many other articles. They re-
side where the climate is of an even
tenn perature, where snow is never eeen
except upon the top of their highest noun
tains. They do not need Hellings as solid
and costly as ours, which We are obliged to
build to exclude the frosts of q rug
ged winter. They are not manufacturing
people. In all the world the Northern man
Is more energetic and persevering, more of q
conquering race than the Southern, who is
enervated by his climate. But these people
of southern chimes are intelligent and their
States have products that we want. We
have many products that they need. Why
not exchange?
The Delegates In Meriden.
MERIDEN, Oct. 10.-The delegates of the
international American congress arrived in
Meriden at 1855, just twenty-five minutes
behind time. The local reception commit
tee had met them in Hartford and on the
arrival of the train at Meriden escorted the
party to the works of the Bradley & HUB
bard company, manufacturers of lamps,
bronze goods, chandeliers, etc. After few
minutes spent in the show room the party
took hasty survey of the various depart
ments and then went to the Meriden Britain
mia company's works. Both factories were
kept RAINING during the noon hour to allow
the delegates to inspect the process of man
ufacture. At the Britannia works half an
hour or 30 was spent in the show rooms and
a hasty tour was made of the departments.
After nearly an hour had been consumed
at these two big factories the party repaired
