B1NaHANToN. Nov. 3.--Chauncey NJ. Depew
began the return journey to-day, after a trip
| through the State, which he declared to have
| been the most successful Of any journey OF it's
| character in which he had ever before engaged
| This morning IL was raw and cold stiff breeze
| blew in over Lake Erie, and torrents of rain
| came down, pattering against the windows of
the private car Cabra, In which Mr.. Depew
slept at tho depot At precisely 8 O'Clock the
| special train drew out Of the station. The first
| stop was at Lancaster, which Is about
twenty minutes ride from Buffalo. A
crowd Of several hundred person had gathered,
| carrying flags and banners, with band
Of music. which played welcoming airs as the
| train steamed into the station. Mr.. Depew ap-
peared on the platform wearing his habitual
smile and looking as though his trip began and
ended with the expectant crowd who stood be-
fore him.
"Giye us a story, Mr.. Depew," said man.
~ can't" he replied, smiling. I'm played
out; but can tell you that II you had been in
Buffalo you would come to the conclusion that
there was nobody left at home in Erie county
last night. It does not make any difference
whether our meetings are large or small how
ever. Although they have been all large,
next Tuesday we shall have at the polls the
largest Republican meeting that was ever held
in this or any other state in America"
The next stop was at Attica, where another
crowd had assembled and another speech was
made by Mr.. Depew. who was followed by ex-
Senator John Lauphlin OF Buffalo and Ambrose
Butler of the same city.
At Batavia a stop OF fifteen minutes was
made, and here Mr.. Watson. who was Chair
man OF the local Republican Committee, intro
duced the orator Of the day rs the Hon. Chaun-
cey NJ Depew Of America" MIR. Depew told
this story:
"The other day was told that a couple Of
Irishnen were talking about going fishing, and
while the boat was coming out they were dis
cussing with each other whether it was really
true that the Democrats had created such harm
to the industry and the employment of the
country. One of them turned to the other and
says he: Look a here. Mike. I've been thinking
this thing over. and want to say to you that
