SPEAKS TO HoRKIsGMEN.
InOersoH's Reason for Objeoting to Free
Coinage of Sttrer.

InOersoIps Reason for Objeotimg to Free
Coinage of SiIrer.
CHICAGO, ILL, Oct. 12.-Hon. Robert
G. Ingersoll spoke to 120GO workingmen
in the stockyards district tonight.
The speaker objected to the free coinage
of silver because Englishmen could bring
their silver bullion to this country and
have it coined into American dollars free
OF charge. He said the mine-owners would
not be benefited by free coinage. because
if the mints are opened to the world the
bullion value of silver will not be raised
one-tenth of per cent.
The only semblance of disorder was the
prolonged Kissing which greeted the
speakers reference sarcastically to Gov
ernor Altgeld as Acknowledgement in Bry-

by J. j. Livernash and H. H. Pyne pre-

Mr.. Cutler devoted himself almost en-
tirely to discussion of the financial ques-
ton, and said that free coinage of silver at
16 TO l would be a panacea for
all our ills. He touched lightly on
the tariff, handling this subject with
gloves. and said it was not an issue in the
campaign. He declared himself against
any and all funding bills, and said he was
in favor of the Nicaragua canal. The
work of the campaign is telling on him
and he appeared to disadvantage tonight.

formed that it win be impossible to
make any connection before July. In the
tirst place the ordinances governing the
