1000 COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS.
Three Great states send Their Travelling
Statesmen.

The second body of visitors was made
up Of commercial travellers from New
York, Ohio and Indiana, and to their
tumultuous greeting Maj. Mckinley re-
sponded by saying
Nobody knows sooner than the COM
mercial traveller whether times are good
or bad. No class of men 50 registers the
waves of business as the men who stand
before me here today. You are interest
prosperity extend from one end of the
country to the other. You are Interested
in having all of our workshops running:
all our mines in operation. and all our
wOrkIngmCn constantly and protitab!y
employed. You are. therefore, this year
possibly more than ever before interested
in the triumph of the political principles
which envelop the welI-being and high
est prosperity of the American people
You know better than anybody else
that you cannot sell your goods to your
customers unless your customers can sell
goods TO the people. You know that the
people cannot buy unless they have some
thing To do at which they can earn mon
cy, that they may buy them. That's
what is the matter with the country to-
day. That's the diagnosis of our condi-
uon at this hour. Business has been
stopped; the wheels of industry are not
running: idle men are on the streets
Many of the manufacturing establish
mcntS are closed and you are not doing
as well as you were in 1892.

Major Mckinley Delivers TO Them an
Unusually Earnest Address.

The Maryland G. A. X. club. one of
the delegations of the day. was hou0red
with one of the most earnest addresses

response To cen. Theodore +. Lang who
smoke for the Maryland visitors, Maj.

A Delegation of Three Hundred Work

Concluding his preceding address to
the miners, Maj. Mckinley had to but
face about to find patiently awaiting an
audience of some 300 steel workers. en-
ployed by the Otis Steel company of
Cleveland. This party was introduced
by Otto Grahicn. ana Mai. Mckinley
responded briefly, saving:
Il am honored by This visit and en-
couraged by it because | know that you
BRING 10 me assurances of LOYALTY to the
great principles of the Republican party
and of your uutirinG zeal to make these
principles victorious on the 81 dav of
November, This audience fairly repre-
SCENTS the conditions with which the bust

what we want to do in this country is
to favor whatever policy will encourage
American industry and promote Ameri-

ploymeut to WOrkinEmen should hc the

which we hope through a change of

ARMY BICYCLE CORPS.
Experiments Which VIII Put Wheels to
Some Very Hard Tests.

Washington, July 1s.-The army at
last has q bicycle corps. A lieutenant o
the 25th infantry has organized detach
ment of eight men at Fort Missoula
Montana, and will shortly test the whee J
for its practical value in the military sez-
vice. The corps will ride through the
country over the trails.
D An important feature of the bicycle
corps is the repa ir shop. which has been
established at the post, and the instruo-
tion includes lessons in repairing under
an expert oyclist mechanic.
Among the experiments contemplated
by the programme of this army bicycle
corps are the following: Rapid convey
ing of messages from Fort Missoula to
other posts at various distances, the trips
to be made without relay and by relay
along the main road and along mountain
trails; the rapid establishment of signal
stations; practice rides with rifles, blan-
keGs, rations and shelter tents; scouting
road patrolling and reconnaissance. This
work will make hard use of the wheel.

oLNEY TO GO TO GRAY GABLES.
VIII Communicate to Mr.. Cleveland statu.
of Venezuelan Case.

Washington, July 19-An important
conference between the President and
Secretary Olney on diplomatic matters
will be held at Gray Gables during the
early part of the coming week. The
secretary will leave here tomorrow night,
and will probably not return here again
until autumn. He will go direct to Gray
Gables in order to communicate to the
President the exact status of the Vene-
zuelan, Cuban aud other important fpend-
ing diplomatic questions before going to
his summer home near Boston Tor q
we'll earned rest.
There have been important conferences
between Secretary Olney and Sir Julian
Paunoefote since the last note of the
former, published this morning, was SUBJ
mitted to the British government. The
British minister, it is understood, has
verbally answered some of the points
made by Secretary Olney in favor of in
cluding territorial claims in a general
treaty, and it is said he made certain con-
oessions which will tend to bring the
two countries together in their efforts to
reach an amioable settlement of the
troublesome question.
Secretary Olney desires to discuss these
new points with the President before
proceeding further with the negotia-
tions.

MUST BE MET WITH SOLID FRONT
Tom Waller Says Party Lines Must Bt
Obliterated in Fight With Free Silver.

New Loadon, CT, July 18.-Thomas
M. Waller said today that the course Of
sound money Democrats was still un-
decided. AS for Connecticut, he stated
that the leaders had concluded they must
meet with their constituents and gauge
public opinion before taking action.
1t is hoped" said MIR. Waller, "that
the state convention will be called at an
early date and that all sections will be
represented by prominent men. Until ]
went to Chicago and came into personal
relations with the delegates from the
South and Vest / had no idea of their in
tensity of purpose, of their determination
to tear down and wipe out everything
that is real and not imaginary.
They must be met with a solid front
of conservative, honest SO und money
men, or Bryan will win. For once party
lines must be obliterated and party ques-
tions sidetracked.
''The people Of the East have no ade-
quate conception of the danger of the
present situation. They must go down
into the internal regions and come back
again to know anything about it"

A NOVEL EXPERIMENT..
Free State Employment Bureau to be
Opened in New York City To-day.

9 New York. July 9.-Ths free employ
ment bureau, authorized by the New
York legislature at its last session, will
be opened at East Fourteenth street to-
morrow. The purpose of the bureau is to
reduce the number of unemployed in the
city of New York without regard to age
or sex. Every persons who applies for q
place will be required to register his
name in book especially prepared for
that purpose: The applicant will be also
required to fill out an application blank
giving his name age, nationality,
previous occupation, name of previous
employer, how long idle, reason for idle
zess, extent Of education, grade, If any,
rate Of wage received from last employer,
whether married or single number of de-
pendent children, etc. When these ap-
plications are handed in at the main
office an agent of the bureau will be i'm
mediately dispatched to inquire into the
case.
If it is found that the applicant has
misrepresented ill this case he will bs
called to account for it, but such oon-
duct will not be regarded as sufficient
reason for declini2e to help him. On the
contrary it is one of the objects Of the
bureau to assist unfortunate people
whether they are honest or not. When the
applications are returned by the investi-
gator they will be Immediately sent to
the bureau of labor statistics at Albany.
ssIhe names of the applicants sent to
the commissioner Of labor statistics will
be printed by him and then shipped to
the supervisors of every village in the
state. They will be instructed to post the
list in conspicuous place ard upon ap-
plication from a prospective employer
give such description of the applicants
is furnished in his application. These
lists will be altered regularly The local
bureau has tbs names of a large number
of merchants and manufacturers, who
hearing Of the scheme have volunteered
any assistance they may be able to
render.
The scheme is experimental. Upon the
results attained in the first year will de-
pend it's continuance.

THEY INTEND TO BOLT.
Address of Chairman HinckIey of New
York Democratic State Committee In
terpreted to Mean That.

Washington, D. c., July 1S.-The ad-
dress of Chairman Hinckley. of New
York recommending waiting atti ude
for the present on the part of the leaders
of the organization, is interrupted here,
by those familiar with the conditions in
New York. as pretty direct hint of a
practical, If not q formal bolt. The
antics of few TammaEy politicians have
not convinced the leaders Of the New
York Democracy that there Is any chance
of keeping the party alive by attempting
to deliver the organization to the Chioa-
go ticket The more prominent leaders
feel that the organization would be de-
livered rs an empty she'll if such an
attempt is nude, aDd that the real
strength of the party will be cast against
Bryan ana SewaIl. This being tho case,
1t ia thought better to accept the judg-
ment Of the leaders and endeavor to save
the party from disoredit by giving the
solid support of the organization to a
gold candidate or by Withholding the
Democratic vote in the state from any
candidate for President.
