He Talks Democratic Politics to Five
Thousand of Them.
NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-In the Lenox Ly-
ceum last night 5000 Democratic business
men gave an enthusiastic reception to
Cleveland and also to Breckenridge of
Kentucky and ratified the Democratic
nominations. Mrs Cleveland was present,
sitting in the center box completely con-
concealed until after the speaking began
by the flags and draperies. j. Edward
Simmons acted as chairman and after a
set of resolutions were passed Cleveland
was introduced as ''the great standard
bearer of the day" He was received with
an outburts, which only the motion of his
lips in speaking his first words quieted.
Remarks that the Campaign Is Quiet.
Mr.. Cleveland said this campaign was
noted for it's quietness. If this meant
thoughtfulness on the part of the people
no one could complain when the result
was known. "If we assume that the quiet
Of this campaign is attributable to thought
fulness among our people and deliberate
sense of patriotic duty in the exercise of
their suffrages, there would seem to be no
place for fear or misgivings as to the result
on the part of those who support Demo
cratic principles. In exactly the form they
are involved in the present campaign these
principles were presented two years ago to
the voters of the country and received their
endorsement by a tremendous majority;
Ence then the drift of public opinion has
been in our direction, and the doctrines op-
posed to ours have been more than ever
discredited.n
Corruption of the Other Fellows
The speaker then charged the Repub-
icans with all the corruption going; said
Democracy was still not absolutely surs

methods-the publication Of "impudent
lies" concerning the Democracy and its
candidates, and the wholesale purchase
of votes. This uncertainty was the more
humiiating because the Democracy was

wickedness as well as the peril of a de

SENSATION IN RAILWAY CIRCLES.

sprung in the railroad world here to.
day by the interstate commerce com.
mission causing the arrest of Daniel
Farrell, jr.. "A prominent jobber, and his
chief clerk, Edward H. Sharp, on a
grand jury indictment charging them
with a violation of the interstate law.
The firm recently shipped y carload OF

spector of the Western railway weigh
ing ASSOCIATION the rate was manipu-
lated, the Inspector receiving brlbe of
