him about the city tonight. He entered
Il carriage ut the station and was driven
directly to the hall, at which he made
his first address. The nominee made
eight speeches on the north and north
west sides tonight. At each meeting

crowds.
The first of Mr.. Bryan's speeches to-
night was at st. Stanilaus hall, Brad

Mr.. Bryan was greeted by an audience
of fully 10000 people, packed into one
solid mass of humanity, while fully as

Mr. Bryan's progress from hall to hal
grew more and more difficult. Finally i
became necessary to send for a specia
detail of police and to keep patrol wagons
filed with blue coats in close proximity
to his carriage. The patrol wagons wen
ahead of his carriage and opened Il pass

quences to the crowds through which
they forced a way.

VENEZUELAN MAPS.
The Commissions Map Expert Has Re
turned With a Number of Maps.

Washington, Oct. 29.-ProfessOr Burr.
the map expert sent abroad by the Ven
ezuelan commission. returned last night
and was before the commission for
three hours today. He presented num-
Der of maps and documents secured from
the archives of Holland bearing direct
ly on the pending issue and not hereto
fore presented by either Great Britain
or Venezuela. The British claim is
based OH their succession to the rights of
the Dutch, so that these maps and docu-
ments are regarded as an important
branch of the case. Both Great Britain
and Venezuela presented maps and docu-
ments from Dutch sources. Professor
Burr's mission was to conduct an indie
pendent inquiry. without questioning the
documents presented by the two coun-
tries, but giving the commission the adj
vantage of a complete knowledge of the
Dutch archives. 1t will take some time
to determine the bearing of the new doc
uments on the issue. The commission
adjourned today until November 10, in
order that Professor Burr may have
time to make written report, that of
today being oral.

FATHER JACQUET DEAD.
He Was the Oldest Priest in Point of
Service in the United States.

Galveston, Tex, Oci. 24.-(Special.)-
The Rev. J. NJ. Jacquet, the oldest priest
in point of service III the United States,
died this morning at st. Mary's infirmary.
His life was one of self-sacrifce and de-
votion TO the church.
Born in Gaucher. in the Canton of st.
Bonnet, France, August 20, 1917, he re-
ceived his education in the schools of
his native country, and was ordained
a priest December 81, 1914, at Lyons,
by Cardinal De BOnald, archbishop of
that see. In March, 1915, Father JAG
quet came to America, and in Septem-
Der of that year began his labors in the
diocese of Nashville. The whole south
eastern Tennessee was assigned to him
for his parish, territory of 200 miles
in extent, and for ten years the young
priest traversed this then wild region.
In 1855 Father Jacquet was transferred
to the see of Cincinnati and was assigned
in 1868 to Coshocton, as pastor of the
Catholic church at that place, and there
he remained in active service for q
years. Last spring he came to Calves
ton to spend his last days with Bishop
Gallagher, whom he had raised.

CAMPAU'S CLAIMS.
Democratic Paid Political Prophet Saws
Pennsylvania is Doubtful.

Chicago, Oct. 2S.-Mr. J. ID. Campau,
chairman of the democratic executive
committee, received today the following
national reports in regard to the various
states:
acknowledgements electoral ticket
will receive no less than $4,000 majority.
The nine democratic congressional candi-
dates will be elected by majorites rang
ing from 800 to 1000.
Letters from New York say that the
farmers are all for Bryan.
Pennsylvania is making great battle
and is not surely republican. Great sill
yer gains are reported from all the agri-
cultural counties, and four mining coun-
ties are fairly ablaze with enthusiasm.
Whereas we have now but two congress-
men, we expect to return ten or twelve
to help President Bryan to carry out his
political reforms.
The drift in Kentucky has been our way
ever since the Chicago convention. 1t Is
stronger today than at any previous time
We will win by majority that proposes
to reach 10000.
The Bryan and Sewall ticket is gaining
strength in New Hampshire. Wherever
our speakers go we hear of many con-
yerts.
The Palmer and Buckner vote will be
so small it is not worth mentioning.

and his party We're driven in carriages
to the Wynage fair grounds, where Il
large crowd was gathered, said to be
the greatest number of people ever as
sembled in the city.
Mr.. Bryan was greeted with wild
cheering. After being introduced by
Mr.. Ferguson, chairman of the county
democratic committee, the nominee said
in part:
IF you ask why it is that so many re-
publicans are joining with us in the
restoration of bimetalisn, ! reply that
we are simply teaching today what the
most distinguished republicans of this
nation have taught in years gone by. Let
me read you what one republican once
said on this question:
'"'There has no organized party arisen
so bold as to advocate the adoption Of
the single gold standard. Many indi-
viduals prefer today this gold standard.

that speech which gold standard man

SECRETARY HERBERT SPOKE.

Troy, Ala, Oct. 29.-Secretary Her
bert of the navy spoke here to Il splendid
audience tonight. 1t was the first of
four speeches which he will make in this
district. This is the district he repre-
scented for several terms in congress, and
his old constituents will always have a
hearty welcome for him.
Col Hcrbert's speech today was a clear
and exhaustive discussion of the whole
political situation. He defended the
Cleveland administration and every ref
erence he made to Mr. Cleveland were
heartily applauded. He explained how
the ''boltocrats" had departed from dem
ocratic principles, taking with them from
the party only the name and election.
He discussed the financial issue at some
length.
The speaker will speak at Evergreen
tomorrow, at Greenville Saturday morn
ing and at Montgomery Saturday night.
He will remain in Montgomery until
after the election. He will vote for
Palmer and Buckner.

PALMER AND RJTCKNER.

Fairfield, ILL.,, A special train bearing
Gems. Palmer and Buckner and party
arrived here at o'clock amidst down
pour of rain. Several hundred people
welcomed the generals at the station
and nearly hundred old soldiers acted
as their escort to the opera house. The
building was jammed with people.
Gen. Palmer denounced the democratic
convention at Chicago for it's espousal
of populist doctrine and censured Mr..
Bryan, who. while asking democratic
votes, had failed to repudiate single
one of the undemocratic declarations of
that party.
Gen. Buckner devoted about twenty
minutes of the time to the discussion of
the financial question and was frequently
interrupted with applause. He asserted
that the free silver campaign of this year
was one of falsehood and misrepresenta-
ton, deliberately planned by dishonest
leaders.
