haps, his gray -thatched, shapely head
seeming too large for a figure, though
not slight of medium height; a smooth
Shaven, thoughtful face, a Roman nose
heroic in proportions; dark eyes shaded
by shaggy brOWs, the broad, firm laws
and square chin, indicating tenacity of
purpose-all these were noted by the
audience. Clad in conventional black.
buttoned tightly about his figure. with
high, straight standing collar, he had
more the appearance of a clergyman
than that of an eminent lawyer and
distinguished politician.
The only vacant space in the hall
was above the heads of the crowd
when Chairman Brown introduced
Hon. d. w. Lawler. Never, in the days
when he was the standard bearer Of
Mlnnesota's Democracy, had the ST.
Paul man such an ovation. His pres
ence at great demonstration made up
largely of Republicans was sufficient
in itself to arouse enthusiasm. In
words f1ery in their denunciation, ell
oquent in appeal, his brief address was
cheered until the building trembled.
So, too, did the crowd break loose when
Mr.. LaWler introduced Mr., Cochran.
For two minutes the New York man
stood with uplifted hands appealing
Tor silence. In all the history of the
great convention hall there was never
nols1er or more enthusiastic demon
stratton. Directly in front Of the plat
form sat 1000 members of the Union
Veterans, league, each bearing a flag.
These old fellows, whose patriotism
was aroused many times during the
evening, stood in their places, cheering
and waving their flags. A f1ambeau
club clad in white and blue uniforms
mounted their chairs and cheered for
the eloquent New Yorker. A sound
av~i,1
left their seats and paraded down the
aisle, cheering and declaring Cochran
was all right. And through all the
long speech, which lasted more than an
hour, each eloquent appeal, each tell
ing point or argument, was greeted
with noisy demonstration Each
patriotic outburst brought the Union
veterans to their feet, and who led the
prolonged cheering that followed
One contentious auditor. by his
interruptions, brought the wit and
sarcasm of the speaker into telling ef
rect. The crowd yelled to have the
dlsturDer elected from the hall But
Mr.. Cochran raised his hands in de-
precation to quell the tumult Let the
Populist remain" he said HE may
be the man you and l have been seek
1ng-the man who can interpret the
contradictory arguments of BRYAN. -
And the Populist subsided. while the
orator launched into a vein of thought
suggested by his interlocutor and pro-
ceeded to rip wide open some of the
free coinage utterances of the Nebras-
ka man. Translating from Bryanese
into English" he called it.
With forceful and telling argument
Mr.. Cochran led up to his peroration.
Sentence after sentence, pregnant
with passionate appeal, with frequent
Interruptions of applause, eliminated
In one tumultuous shout as the last
words Of the orator echoed in the
rafters overhead.

The exercises of the evening were

Chairman c. W. Brown, who intro

Mr.. Lawler, in introducing the orator
of the evening, said:
Fellow Citizens: This Is a mighty DEM
onstration; 1t gives testimony that in the
presence of peril threatening the honor of
the nation, and the integrity Of national
institutions, the people of Minnesota have
wiped out lines of partisanship and have
risen to the sublime height of patriotism
Your presence here tonight Is a protest
against the humiliating confession made by
a great national organization that at the
end of the nineteenth century the American
people are unable to procure for them
selves the best financial system known to
the civilized world. 1t is a protest against
the declaration Of party that the dollar
of the American laborer and the honor of
the American people shall be cut in two by
the sword of legislation. 1t is a protest
against the declaration which says that the
supreme court of the United States shall
be stripped of honor and the president of
the American republic shall be stripped of
the power to execute the laws of this great
nation. And when l look upon the faces
OF many Of those with whom l have
marched side by side in many hard fought
political fight In Minnesota l recognize
that another meaning of this great demon
stration has been accentuated and that a
protest Is here recorded against the plat
form of population and lawlessness and
dishonor recently adopted at Chicago 1t
Is my proud privilege to introduce tonight.
my fellow citizens, an American statesman.
worthy of the best days of the republic; a
man who can travel the entire width and
breadth of our glorious land and as long
as he stands beneath the shadow of the
stars and stripes will be unable to discover
foot of enemy's territory. He is here to-
night as an eyangel of peace and good will,
as the champion of American honor as
the indignant defender of the true dignity
of American citizenship. He comes here to-
night no candidate for high office, bearing
no title higher than the grandest title
which man can give to the badge of plain
American citizenship. / have the privilege
of Introducing to you the orator of the
evening. the Hon. w. Bourke Cochran of

Eight thousand people cheered the
sentiments uttered by w. Bourke
Cochran, eloquent, but weak and
hoarse in voice, in the Minneapolis ex-
position building last night. More than
that number thronged the streets
about the great structure unable to
gain admittance. Thousands of per-
SONS who held tickets Of admission
found the doors closed against them.
Men in uniform, bearing torches,
bands by the dozen, women and chill
dren, were in the throng that surged
and swayed before the closed doors.
and vented its disappointment in
cheers for Cochran and sound money
Inside the great hall, with every
seat occupied and hundreds standing,
the enthusiasm was almost as great
as in the streets outside. The platform
was occupied by distinguished persons
from all ranks and professions. The
body of the hall was set apart for un-
iformed bodies, while in the galleries
were those fortunate ones who gained
admission and found seats long before
the parade had closed. Prominent
among those seated on the stage were:

Object OF Ramon Williams Visit to

New York, Nov. 1O.-The Morning
Advertiser will say tomorrow:
1t was reported in this city yester-
day that the acknowledgement to Ha-
vana, Ramon Williams, might be ex-
pected here from Europe in about ten
days. Although the fact of Mr.. Will
liams' presence in Spain escaped the
vigilance of the newspaper correspond
ents in the Spanish capital, 1t is new.
ertheless true that he has been in
Madrid for three weeks past, and in the
immediate circle of his family it was
announced that he was to leave for
New York by one of the North German
Lloyd liners on Saturday last.
While the fact cannot, for obvious
reasons, be definitely learned, it is gen.
orally believed by his personal friends
that Mr.. Williams visit to Spain has
been as an agent of the United States,
with the view of making some arrange
ment by which a ~peaceable solution of
the Cuban question might be brought
about.
1t will be remembered that, on re.
turning from Havana. Mr.. Williams
spent some time in Washington, where
he had several lengthy interviews with
President Cleveland and Secretary
Olney. He then left for Europe, sail
ing September IS, it being generally
supposed that his trip was taken for
rest and in the interest of his health.
He first visited EnglSnd and then

A SORRY LOT OF MINERS
The Al-Ki Brings Another
Load From Cooks Inlet.
EVERY STATE REPRESENTED

Very Little Gold Dust in the Crowd
"A Politician and His Money Soon
Parted Didn't Make Expenses.
Port Townsend, Nov. 10.-The
steamer Al-Ki arrived this morning
from Alaska, having aboard 242 re-
turning miners from Cooks inlet.
They left Cooks inlet October 5, on
the schooner Excelsior, which brought
them to Sitka, where they were COM.
PEELED to remain three weeks before
getting a boat to the Sound. Nearly
every state in the Union is represented
in the crowd. Nearly 100 transferred
here for San Francisco, the remainder
proceeding up the Sound. Except two
men named Pierce and Price, who
each brought down twenty-five pounds
of golddust, very little wealth was
have each worked a claim for thirty
months. Not II out of ten had made
expenses of the trip, and, as a whole,
it wa: 4 d%ilapidsted looking crowd.
Among the passengers returning on
the Al.Ki were two enthusiastic poll
~ticians, one a Republican, the other a
Democrat. Each had golddust to the
amount of $500. Notwithstanding the
fact that the election had taken place
several days previous, nothing had been
heard by the returning miners as to
election results, so each miner staked
his dust on his favorite candidate. A
fellow passenger held the stakes, and
when the Al-Ki approached the wharf
this morning both men were ON the
bow of the ship and simultaneously
yelled to those on the wharf, WHO is
e%lected?" The answer settled matters,
and the stakeholder turned over the
dust to the winner.
