a BUSINESS MANS VIEW.

Mr.. Montgomery Reviewed the None.
| Question From business Standpoint.
The assertion that all the moneyeC
men of the state are supporting Nc
Kinley was refuted by Hon. j. Z,
Montgomery at the Baldwin opers
house last night. The meeting wa:
in charge of DR.. Sanders, who in Q
| brief address, in which he announced
be was q republican, though not a
follower of the gold standard, intro
duced the speaker amid deafening
cheers.
! Mr.. Montgomery wasted no time in
Introductory remarks, but came square.
ly to the point of the questions at
issue. He announced on the outset
he was a republican, always had been
and always would be, but he was a
bimetalist, and when his party de-
clared for the single gold standard, he
refused to follow its lead.
Taking up the, history of the nation
from 1873 to the present time, he
showed that the value of all classes of
property, except money, had steadily
.depteciated, and the only reasonable
reason for this was contraction of
the currency. He exploded che idea
that the prices of commodities does
not depend upon the volume of money,
and proved to the contrary by figures
prepared by the ablest statisticians
that the price of As leading products
OF the country had declined gradually
since silver had been stricken down by
he leading commercial nations OF the
world, and that nothing but a shortage
in the supply could result in the rise
of prices for any commodity so long as
money is scarce. The recent rise in
the price of wheat, he showed to be the
result Of the famine in India and other
great wheat producing countries, the
same as it was in 1850.
Mr.. Montgomery talk to the bank
ers and merchants was telling one.
His argument Is that no branch OF
business can be prosperous so long as
the producers are depressed, that mer-
chants cannot sell goods unless the
farmers receive just compensation for
their labor, and that banks cannot do
profitable business unless their clients,
the producers, are prosperous. The
only way the latter can be made pros
porous is by increasing the circulating
medium, and this can be accomplished
only by opening our mints to silver.
Mr.. Montgomery is successful busi-
ness man, possessing considerable
wealth, and although he is not fluent
speaker, his high standing in CONNER
cial circles and his recognized ability
as financier, cause all to carefully
weigh his opinions.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 25.-Shortly before
10 O'Clock this morning, two passen-
ger trains on the St. Louis & San
Francisco railroad, going in opposite
directions, collided nearly opposite
Windsor station, 13 miles from this
city, instantly killing eight persons
and iniuring large number, three of
whom will probably die. The killed
are ell of ST. LOUIS. Their names are:
Adolph Hohl, engineer of the accom-
mediation train.
Charles Mobine.
Conrad Kuntz.
c. C. Blevins.
H. 7. Hall.
Barney McKenna, in charge of the
refreshments.
Miss Maud McKenua, aged II, his
daughter.
rwenty-one persons were more or
less injur- d.
The collision occurred between the
seco"d section of an excursion bound
west. and the Frisco Valley Park ac-
COMMUNICATION.
From what can be learned at this
hour. the accident was the result of
bedience or neglect of orders on
the part of excui sion crew, who shou
have remained at Spriug Park for or,
ders. and let the accommodation train
through. The excursion train was
the second section of special bound
for ST. James, Mo-, 100 miles west of
ST. Louis, where the Missouri Home
for aged veterans was dedicated today
under the auspices of the G. A. r.
and Woman's Relief Corps. The first
section had gone through safely, and
the second section, which consisted
of IL coaches heavily laden with G. A.
r. men, their wives and children, left
ST. Louis about o'clock. According
to J. d. Dishman, the telegraph
operator and station agent at Spring
Park, it should have stopped at that
place for orders. Instead of doing so,
the second section passed by the
station, and soon after met the accom-
mediation coming down the grade at
full speetl.
Engineer dohT, OF the ascomodation,
was not aware the second section was
on the road. and in trying to make the
switch at Kirkwood, crashed into the |!
ill-fated train in q cut just 13 miles
from the St. Louis union station. |
There was only one car, combina-
ion baggage and coach. on Engineer
Hollis train, but the collision was ter
life, both engines being demolished
Ind number of cars telescoped. The |
wrecKage was piled high on the track,
Ind above the sound of escaping steam
,ould be heard the cries of the fright
,ued and injured passengers.
The accommodation train consisted
IN engine, tender, baggage car and of
wo coaches, in which there were only |
i've passengers. The engine end ten
Ter were wrecked, but the other three
,ars were not damaged. 1t is due TO
he lightness of this train that the ac-
,ident was nov worse than it was.

Arsg go's victims washed Ashore.

MARSHFIELD, Or. Oct. 25.-Early
this morning, the lifesavlng patrol
found on the ocean beach the remains
of three unfortunate victims of the
wreck of the illfated steamer Arago
They were brought to Empire City,
and coroner's inquest held. The
names of the unfortunates are: Patience
and Speck, steerage passengers, and
Sander, seaman. The three were
buried at Empire this afternoon. The
Arago is still in the same position.
An excursion from here today reports
the bar very smooth, and it is probable
that what treasure is in the steamer
will be recovered by divers.

At Illinois College.

JACKSONVILLE, ILL.,, Oct. 26.-Per-
haps the noisiest demonstration ever
given any one in the chapel of Illinois
college was accorded William Jennings
Bryan this morning by the students of
his alma mater. His address, while it
was defense of the double-standard
theory of finance, was so automatically
given that no student could take
offense.
The same simple exercises in which
Bryan participated six years as
student were gone through with this
morning. John F. Bradley, president
of Illinois college, presided. The
exercises opened with the reading of
the sculptures by DIR. Bradley, re-
sponsive reading, Bible lesson and
prayer by DIR. t. P. Carter, professor
of natural science. Then DIR. Bradley
made a short Introductory address,
saying that of the distinguished alumni
of Illinois college who had reflected
honor upon that institution, no one
stands, and no one ever stood in such
public distinction as the guest of this
morning. He said that with the
duties and engagements which press so
heavily upon the distinguished visitor,
it was not unworthy that he should
pause and tuin aside for little visit
to the scene of old associations, to
greet his ola friends and permit them
to greet him and lay his honors at the
feet of his alma mater.
The applause which followed the
introduction was hearty and of long
duration. After Bryan's address DR..
Bradley announced that in honor of
the presence of the distinguished guest
the students would observe the rest of
the day as holiday, and called upon
the members of the Sigma to escort
Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan to a carriage and
act as a guard of honor through the
grounds of the institution. Members
of that fraternity drew up in line, and
fraternal song, marched on
either side of the carriage. When the
vehicle containing the guests reached
the gates, the students bade the
nominee and his wife God speed and
the farewell with long
and loud college yells.

FOR THE CAUSE or TEMPERANCE
Mass Meeting Held in the Court Rou
Last Night.

Mass-Meeting Held in the Court House
Last Night.
The temperance meeting given under
the direction of the local w. c. T. U.
at the court house last evening was
we'll attended, the circuit court room
being comfortably filed. The meet =
ing was presided over by Mrs. w. II.
Biggs, president of the W. c. T. o.,
and addresses on temperance were
delivered by Rev. L. Grey, Rev. ]. 81.
Wood. Rev. w. C. Curtis and Mr.. R.
B. Hood. of this city, and Rev. DR..
Hines, of Hood River. The remarks
of each of these gentlemen were ap-
propriate, and many earnest appeals
were made tothe people of The Dalles
to labor in the cause OF temperance.
Prof. Landers also gave a select read
ing, and interspersed between the ad-
dresses number vocal selections were
rendered, Mrs. DIR. Doane presiding at
the organ.
The meeting is the first of series
that will be given by the w. G. T. U.
during the coming winter, and from
the interest manifest it is evident
that the temperance workers of The
Dalles will be successful in creating an
interest in this cause.

prevented panic and the possible
awful results of fire, which broke out
just as the morning service was be-

today, and which destroyed the main
part of the building. When the pastor
took his place in the pulpit, his at
tention was drawn to smoke in the
lobby leading to the Sunday-school
room. He remained standing until

Prairie State

Bryan Will Make Hard Fight in the
| Prairie State.
NATION. H.. Oct. 23.-What is
considered the battle-ground of the
campaign was entered by Bryan this
morning. 1t has teen understood that
Bryan would put up the best fight he
| could when the Prairie state was
reached. Eighteen places were on the
itinerary for today. A few more will
be added before night just for good
measure.
Illinois democratic politicians"
met Bryan at Terre Haute last night
and today escorted him. Railroad and
Warehouse Commissioner w. S. Can
trell took charge of the train. Dam
vile was the first stop. From o stand
near the courthouse Bryan spoke to
an assemblage of thousands.
When Bryan quoted Congressman
Joe Cannon in support of the free-sil-
yer doctrine, the crowd gave noisy
evidence of approval. The quotation
from cannon was.
Again the senate amendment takes
away the free coinage of silver and
leaves the free coinage Of gold. Now,
silver is just as much the money of the
constitution as gold, and should re-
ceive the same treatment in every res
pect us gold"
Bryan continued: We are asking
today for exactly what Cannon asked
for l8 years ago. but he tells you it
would wrong the country to have now
what he wanted then. But let me read
further: And when you discriminate
against one of the precious metals in
favor of the other, by restricting the
use of one, as contemplated by the SEN
ate amendment as to silver, you had |
far better fetter the use OF money in |
measuring values and making ex-
changes of the commodities of the |
country and fail just that far to give !
necessary relief and assistance to the |
business of the country that wise legis-
lation should and would give That
is right, my friends; when you dis
criminate against silver and ferter sill
yer you are simply trying to put in
power few men to corner the money
and hold the rest of mankind
st their mercy"

Are Recovering.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. .26.-Indications this
morning are that there will be no
more fatalities IS the result of Sundays
collision on the ST. Louis & San Fran
cisco railroad near this city. All the
injured as far as known are recovering.
II. F. Clark, train master of the road,
says;
Il feel safe in saying that the blame
for the accident lies entirely with our
conductor and engineer on the excur-
sion train. George Atwood and Joseph
Dryden. They are both good men,
and have seen years of service in the
railway business. Atwood was b, side
himself with grief at the awful results
of his mistake. When | asked Atwood
about the wreck, he said he was busy
collecting tickets when the train
passed through Spring PARK. He
must have gone Oh to the scene of the
collision without knowing where he
was on the track. Both trains were
simply rnnning according To the raj
of the road. and under the. dir rction of
