SILVBR'S CAUSE
Bryan, Its Champion, Still in the
Field, Doing Noble Battle for
the Cause.
MANY i SPEECHES IN INDIANA
Everywhere and by Everybody He Is
Welcomed With Great
Enthusiasm.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Oct. 22.-The
trip of William j. Bryan through Hoos-
ierdom today was of interest, not only
because of the enthusiastic crowds en-
countered at nearly every step, but be-
cause of the aggressive nature of his
speeches. At Delphi he refuted the
charge of ex-President Harrison that
when he spoke of those who had been
saving the country for the past 80 years
at so much per save, he alluded to the
old veterans. On platform erected
within few yards of the home of Gen.
Lew Wallace, he replied in vigorous Ian
guage to the author OF "Ben Hur," who,
in speech made some time ago, alluded
to Bryan as an anarchist. At Lafayette
he denied the statement of ex-President
Harrison, made yesterday at Salem, that
"the present conditions are that
we are bimetallic country" He said
that the statement meant that, having
been defeated in this campaign on the
gold standard, the republicans are try
ing to get under the cover of bimetallism,
and claim their platform is a fraud.
There was greater absence Of yellow
badges in all the crowds today, and at
every place whore the candidate spoke
he had large and enthusiastic audiences.
The same trouble was experienced as
was encountered yesterday in regard to
the delay of the trains at different
places, and the result was that when
Terre Haute was reached, the train was
nearly two hours behind schedule time.
The enthusiastic meeting in the even
ing in this city was fitting close for the
enthusiastic day. The reception here
was one of the greatest, if not the great
est, of the day, and the ovation given
the candidate was fattering in the ex-
treme. He was met at the depot by the
members of the Jackson club, and when
he reached his carriage that organiza-
tion acted as a guard of honor ir the
procession which followed Bryan ad.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Ex-senator But
ler today received letter from Hon. S.
F. Norton of Illinois, the favorite candi-
date of the middle of the road people for
the presidential nomination at the ST.
Louis convention, announcing his sup

everywhere to assist in Bryan's election.
Norton advises the populists to forgive
for time any unjust treatment they re.
ceived from the democrats and postpone
the settlement of minor differences until
after the election.

man of the Knights Of Labor, who was
received with cheers. He said that he
was glad to see the discrimination ex-

that fell from the lips of those who we're
prominent in Labors battles. We are
fighting over battle that has been
fought by all nations; battle similar to
that fought when our government was
established, when Paine, Jefferson and
Henry battled for the preservation to the
people of life, liberty and happiness. The
leaders in that battle died unhonored,
but their services are appreciated today.
He referred to the Capitalization of
wealth, which he deplored, and, after a
pleasant reference to himself as the
leader OF the Montana contingent of the
Coxey commonweal, read the manifesto
of the knights of Labor, published in
another column. The reading was
punctuated frequently with cheers. He
then referred to the state ticket, saying
that every laborer in the world looks
with hope for the election of Bryan,
man as broad as the world. In this con-
tingency, it is necessary that as many
state administrations should be in sym

GRAND MEETING
Advocates of Bryan and Free Coinage
Decidedly Declare Them
selves.
MANY ELOQUENT SPEECHES
lmpromptu Parade That Strongly
COntrasted With the Nc
Kinleyites'.

The silver men, women and children OF
Great Falls yesterday evening admins
tered an effective rebuke to traitors and
double dealers and showed most en-
phatically that 81 per cent Of the voters
Of Great Falls will support the entire
list of silver candidates.
The McKinleyites had expended a por.
ton of the $4,000 which they yesterday
received from Hanna in securing the
Grand opera house and had announced
that Thomas Fl. Carter, who defeated
one bill for the free coinage Of silver by
pairing with silver representative in
congress, who pledged himself to vote for
free coinage if elected senator, who had
spoken in the senate in behalf Of silver,
who had refused to vote for the nomina-
ton of Mckinley, and who was too
cowardly to appear before the state
convention, to which he had referred his
action for approval, would speak in be-
half of Mckinley; and that Elbert D.
Weed, who was failure as United
States district attorney and as mayor of
Helena and who only few months ago
was writing and speaking in behalf OF
silver, would also talk for Hanna's
chattel.
The silver men had announced that
Thomas S. Hogan of Anaconda, silver
candidate for secretary of state; William
Hogan of Butte, district master work.
man of the Knights of Labor, and 9th
ers would speak at Bryan headquarters,
at 2lO Central avenue.
At o'clock the silver men formed a
parade, under the leadership of the
Great Northern band. Hundreds OF
men fell into line at a moments notice
and the parade in few minutes ex-
tended over block and half. The
principal streets we're traversed, those
in the parade and the crow Dis that lined
the sidewalks cheering repeatedly for
Bryan and Hartman. The parade finally
ended at the Bryan headquarters and
all eyes were anxiouey turned to the
headquarters of the Mckinley club,
whence the great goldbug parade was to
start.
There WAS movement forH ard Of the
great crowd as tho Black Eagle band
started to move forward from the Nc
Kinley headquarters, for all we're anx-
ious and curious to behold the process
sion of McKinleyites. Behind the band
came carriage, in which were seated
Garter and Weed and behind that car
riage was the parade-l5 small boys,
cheering repeatedly for Bryan and free
silver Not voter was in tle parade
and as the carriage passed the Bryan
headquarters the Great Northern band
struck up the Dead March from Saul,
Slowly and sadly the little procession
wended it's way to the Grand opera
house, while as many Of the silver people
as the room would hold crowded into
the Bryan headquarters, where the Great
Northern band rendered selection.

country folk gathered, not only to par

William Jennings Bryan. About the

Many Speeches.

ROCHESTER,, Ind, Oct. 22.-The Indi-
ana committee evidently did not intend
to allow William j. Bryan to keep very
far behind his record as a speech maker
on this trip through Hoosierdom. Nine
teen speeches we're made in "a hours,
ending at midnight last night, and today
II we're on the itinerary, with the ex-
pectstion that there would probably be
more, but Parks Martin, chairman OF
the state committee, who is in charge OF
the train, attended to it that Bryan re-
ceived more rest, and did his best to save
the nominee from the too affectionate
crowds of admirers.

called attention to the fact that imported

contrary to agreement, and that when
Gov. Richards was asked to remedy this
evil he replied that he was 80 occupied
with official duties that he could not pay

the applause was deafening.

MADE TUO MANY ERRORS
St. Ignatius College Team De-
feated the Paciics in a
Poor Game.
San Francisco Players Easily Dispos ed
of the Delegation From
Oak and.

For two wearisome hours and thirty-five
dreary minutes ball game at the Preside
dragged along yesterday amid kicks, con-
troversies, delays and minor causes of
misery too numerous to mention.
The whole matter was grand mistake.
In the first place the game was to have
been between the teams of the st. Mary's
and st. Ignatius colleges. Through the
mistake OF some one the former team chal-
lenged the latter. st. Ignatius accepted,
but ST. Mary's refused to play because
the sender of the challenge was not au-
thorized to do so. Because of the failure
of the st. Mary's team to put in an APP
pearance the umpire awarded the game to
st. Ignatius by technical score of 9 to 0.
The Pacifics were prepared to take the
place of the defaulting club, and there
began as tiresome spectacle as has been
seen on a ball field in this City.
For six innings the score was a close
one. but the play lacked the snap and en-
deavor that are expected In collegiate con-
tests, the only enlivening feature being
the exaggerated objections of Captain Nc
Dermott, who found something not to his
liking in every other move.
In the seventh inning Mansfield, the
Pacific pitcher, let down, and after giving
four bases on balls was touched up for a
single and double, which, with a couple
of errors, Melted the college boys seven
runs, but one of which was earned.
Had it not been for the sudden collapse
of their twirler the Pacifcs would prob
ably have won, there being really but iive
participants being almost useless.
