MILWAUKEE, Oct. 23.-The ALL
America travellers left Chicago at rs
O'clock under the attentive care of Capt.
Burke, of the army. This was because
of the fact that the special agent, Will
lam E. Curtis, remained behind under
advice of DR.. Yarrow, United States
armv. Mr.. Curtis is obliged to take
rest, anxiety for the success of the trip
and activity in attaining it having
caused nervous exhaustion. He expects.
however, to resume his duties tO-mor-
row. The run to this city was unevent-
ful, save for the boarding of the train
at Western Union Junction by the Mill
waukee reception committee, bearing
tiny bottles of Milwaukee beer as SOuve-
mrs, and handsome pamphlets lllustra-
ting Milwaukee. The st. Paul road. on
which the run Is now being made, also
distributed elegant souvenirs. Upon
arrival at Milwaukee carriages carried
the party through the residence sections,
to the art gallery, water works, to the
breweries and to hotel at 80, where
lunch was had. Mayor L. III. Brown, at
the conclusion of. lunch, welcomed the
visitors, saying all citizens of the city
we're true American citizens in the sense
of desiring true union of all the Amer
icas. He was followed by John j Ohm
ston, who spoke of Milwaukee. 1.-The
place of the beautiful bay or hollow,

claimed for Milwaukee the second place
as fiour-making city, Minneapolis
being first. Only thirty-five policemen
were required to keep order in the day
time among the city'S 250,000 people.
Mexican Minister Romero. speaking for
the delegates, said those of the East ex-
pressed surprise at the wondrOus growth
of the West. and made some compare
sens of industries and structures East
and West. Upon the close Of Senior
Romero's brief remarks, Ed HOlten,
once Prohibition candidate for governor
of Wisconsin, in stirring talk of
three minutes, rendered, in his own
home, thanks to Senior Romero, who
years ago. in his, had extended
HEARTY COURTEsIEs
to the Americans. The tribute was
stirring and the applause very quick.
j. V. Quarles spoke of some American n
peculiarities, which amused his hearers,
and in closing evoked cheers by saying
the hands of the United States
were extended to the visitors and
behind them were the heart beats of
these peoples neighbOrs had aSSnredly
decreed that they should be friends.
tApplause.) To that end the speaker
proposed sentiment that was warmly
received. After luncheon DR.. Silva,
delegate from Columbia, who had in
spected the great brewerieS with inter-
est, remarked that at the meal he had
felt inclined to protest against the use
of wine-he suggested that beer, the
beverage of Milwaukee, should have
been used. The drive about the city
was resumed after the lunch, the chief
feature of interest being the National
Soldiers Home, on the outskirts of the
city. The southern visitors saw with
some wonder the great numbers of
veterans, all in uniform, drawn

that the nation provided such
homes for INDECENT veterans of the war
of the Rebellion. "They are the chill
dren of your nation" CALCULATED one
SOutherner. eyes, the nations wards"
responded the local committeeman. The
care Dy the whole people of aged and
INDECENT soldiers deeply moved many of
the visitors. The engine works of Allis
u Co. were visited, and machinery.

connected by covered way with the
house. was pitched on the lawn, and
there the visitors danced until late in
the evening, when they were driven to
their train, which started at midnight
for ST Paul.
