Special TO the REcoRD-UNIoN.
NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-The German
American-C Cleveland Union held a great
mass meeting tonight in Cooper Union,
the large hall being packed with people,
and nearly as many more being unable
to gain admittance. The enthusiasm was
at white heat throughout the proceedings,
tumultuous applause greeting Cleveland,
Carl Schurz Oswald Ottenderier and
others. William Steinway was intro
duced as Chairman. and spoke at some
length in denunciation of the Mckinley
law. He then introduced Cleveland as
"a gentleman known, honored. revered
and beloved, not only in America, but
the wide world over" Again the audi
ence broke loose and shouted itself
hoarse in greeting the eXPresident.
After dwelling upon the duties of for
eign-born citizens, Cleveland said: IF
we are to be fellows in our citizenship,
this fellowship is only realized when we
enjoy in an equal and just manner the
advantages of our citizenship. AT the
present time we find a political party
support of the doctrine that this fellow
ship in our citizenship is sacred when
The prosperity of certain especial inter-
ests is favored i'll the making and cXecu-
ton of our laws, and is made a direct
charge upon the industry of those not
within the circle of governmental par
TALLY. AS the result OF the successful
assertion of this doctrine, we find enor-
NOUS unearned fortunes in the hands of
q few individuals, while those who in the
unequal race patiently rely upon per-
sonal thrift and sturdy individual effort,
are far in the rear.
~ interpret the organization and activ-
ity OF the German-A Union as
protesting against a violation OF the
rights of its members in this fellowship,
and l conceive this demonstration to be a
revolt against the mockery of calling
those our fellow-citizens who are de-
prived of equal participation in the ad-
vantages promised under free American
institutions. The remedy for unfair in
e4ualities in the distribution of the bene-
Its of our American citizenship is in the
hands of the voters of the land, and if
there has been departure from the lights
which should guide the operations of our
Government, it is for the people to de-
mand return to safe channels.
Let me warn you, in closing that the
struggle TO secure the ratification of false
methods, and the dislodgement of selfish
advantages is not an easy one. The at
tempts to cajOle our voters, successful in
the past, are still continued, and bribery
and corruption are still in vogue. 1t is
only by intelligent argument, constant
endeayor and unremitting vigilance that
we shall recover the just and equal share
of bentits which belong to us as American
fellow-citizens."
Cleveland was repeatedly and loudly
applauded at frequent intervals during
hIs remarks.
Carl Schurz followed Cleveland. He
was greeted with great applause, and
poke IN German on the issues of the
campaign. He said in part: Never be-
fore in the history of American politics
has so immense a corruption fund APP
pea!ed as the Republican party is now
using, and never has its purpose been so
markedly revealed. 1t is ridiculous for the
Republicans to raise the cry that the
democrats do the same thing. The Dem
ocratlc campaign management is highly
reioiced when it raises money enough to
pay office rent, clerk hire, printing bills
and other necessary expenses"
Other speeches by local orators con-
cluded the great demonstration. Mean
while speakers on two stands in front of
the building addressed several thousand
German citizens who were unable to gain
entrance TO the hall.
DEMOCRATIC BUSINESS MEN.
NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-At the loot of the
Washington statue, at the entrance to the
Sub Treasury building on Wall street, a
number Of New York business men
enunciated the principles of the Demo-
cratic party this afternoon to a throng
that block the streets for half a block
around. 1t was a meeting OF the Cleve-
land and Stevenson Business Mems Club,
and from the vociterous cheering and
energetic swinging Of hats and handker-
chiefs it embodied a vast amount of real
enthusiasm. The crowd was largely
made up from men who traffic in grain.
produce and stocks in Wall street, and
their employees. Congressman Harter.
eN-Congressman Russell, Ex-Governor
Waller and others spoke.
SATISFACTORY OUTLOOK.

says: The outlook in the West is thor
oughly satisfactory. have just returned
from careful canvass of the frontier
counties in Nebraska, where the PEOPLES
party is the strongest, and | am con
WINGED that the Republican Electoral
tlcket is sale beyond reasonable question.
The treatment OF General Weaver in the
South and Mrs. Leases statement of the
abominable outrageS committed in
Georgia on speakers in the People's
cause have thoroughly disguised such
Republicans as temporarily attached
themselves 10 IllstL ORGANIZATION. Kansas
will give 10000 majority for Harrison and
Reid. Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho and
Montana are, in my Judgment, quite safe.
The rainbow chasers viii not find not

electoral votes 10 Cleveland. but she will
stop right there. Iowa will not leave the
Republican column this year by Il COM
Portable majority. | think the real fight
must be made in the old doubtful States.
The West swerves occasionally in oil

publican principles when the issues in

hereditary enemies i'll both the executive
and legislative branches of the National
