c RESULT OF A CAREFUL CANVASS
The Democratic Managers Claim the Ticket
Will Sweep the Southern, Western
and Central Middle States.
As to the Labor Vote.

Chicago, Oct. ga month before elec-
ton day finds the managers of all parties
firm in their declarations of confidence
in the success at their respective polls.
THE whole thing hinges on what the
labor element may do said Mr.. Steven
son of the national democratic party.
"Eighty-five per cent. of the farmers are
for free silver If the capitalists and
money brokers succeed by coercion or
other methods in gaining the support of
the labor element, Mr.. Mckinley will be
elected. But l do not think they can do
anything with that element"
AT democratic national headquarters IL
was stated that convincing evidence is
daily accumulating that Bryan will sweep
the southern, western and central states.
This claim is not based on reports of en-
thuslastic politicians, but is the result of
careful investigation and very careful
canvasses made in debatable territory by
national state and local managers of the
free silver campaign.
1t is further stated that Sin many coun-
ties in Ohio Indiana, Illinois, Michigan.
Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota there is
a wholesale stampede of republican far
mers to the support of Bryan, and that
reports show that the German Americans
are coming over to the Bryan standard
by the thousands, a state of affairs which
Is largely due to the Bismarck letter. MIL
lions of copies of which have been sent
out all over the country"
The democratic managers claim In
diana by 5000 and also claim a gain of
nine democratic congressman in that
state.

BRYAN AT EAST ST. LOUIS.
The Railroad Men Blew Their Whistles and
Rang Their Bells--Hs Speech Ad-
dressed Entirely to Them.

East ST. Louis, ILL.,, Oct. 3.-Presidential
Candidate Bryan's approach through the
railroad yards of East st. Louis was an
nounced by the blowing of whistles and
the ringing of bells. The assembled
yardmen Immediately realized that the
apostle of 16 to / was travelling through
their midst and when the Bryan train
pulled up for transfer at the bridge en-
trance at least 1900 workmen surrounded
the candidates car and demanded a
speech. Mr.. Bryan gracefully acknowl-
edged the salute of his audience of rail-
way employees and was then escorted to a
temporary stand where he held forth to
the multitude in part as follows:
''They tell you that the interest of one
man is the interest Of all. l tell You that
there are questions where mems inter-
ests differ. l might point you out one. I
remember that in the house Of represen-
tatiyes a bill was presented to compel
the trains engaged In interstate COM
merce to put such couplers on their cars
as would protect the lives and limbs of
their employees. / remember that for one
whoe night we stayed in session trying
to get that bill before the house. (Cheers.)
From evening until daylight next morn
ing we occupied our places in the house
of representatives and know that there,
when we were trying to save the brake
men and the switchmen and the conduct
ors and the engineers and the firemen,
we found against us the railroad attor-
neys who said that 1t would cost too
Much. (Applause and cheers) know
that hey measured the cost of putting a
coupler on car against human life.
Great applause) And. my friends, when
we insisted that we had no right to treat
the lives of other peoples brothers in a
different way from what we treat the
lives of our own brothers we could not
touch the hearts of those men who were
sent to congress by railroads and ohcyed
them when they got there.

CUBA Is LOST TO SPAIN
Unless the Rebellion Is Crushed by May |!
Says Letter from Madrid
to Weyler.

Jacksonville, Fla, Oct. 3.-Samuel T..
Tolon, whose arrest and detention in a
Havana prison caused high words be-
tween Consul General Lee and General
Weyler, passed through the city this
morning en- route to Washington. where
he will file a claim with this government
for $4,000 damages against Spain.
Mr.. Tolon is an American citizen, who
has extensive sugar interests near Man
tanZas. He was arrested on board an
American vessel by the Spanards, who
suspected him of aiding the insurgents.
Mr.. Tolon was in Jail during the battle
on the trocha, but plainly heard the
heavy firing in the west. 1t was at night
and the flare and flash could be plainly
seen. There was great excitement in Ha-
vana, he learned afterwards, and the
people feared an invasion, especially
when couriers from the front brought dis
patches telling Weyler his troops were
slaughts of the columns of Maceo.
Mr. Tolon says General Arolas has in
formed Weyler that in Maceo's attack on
the trocha 500 Spaniards were killed. Cen
eral Arolas has also informed Weyler that
Spain can't conquer the insurgents with
less than $4,000 more troops-not boys,
but men. "And of these" ne adds, fully
20, 900 must bite the dust"
Mr.. Tolon is bitter against Spain for
her treatment of him. He is warm ad-
mirer of Consul General Lee, and says
that Spain would never dare insult the
United States If this government had the
backbo of the Virginian.
Mr.. Tolon is accompanied by Senior
Nunez, a mepchant of ardenas, who fell
under Weyler's displeasure and was ex-
PEELED from Cuba. Senior Nunez has seen

him to crush the revolution at once. IF
you do not conquer the rebels by May L."

Heartrending Stories.
CONDITION ONE OF ACTUAL sUFFfRIN

Jacksonville, Fla, Oct. 3.-Reports
from the remoter sections where the
storm visited increases the number of
dead
AT Double Sink in Levy county, large
settlement, nearly every house was swept
away, and Miss Jennie Hayfield, young
lady, was killed. Mr.. Hayfield and sew
eral children are all seriously hurt. J. D.
Stockman's house was blown down, and
he was caught in the falling timbers and
painfully hurt.
Nearly every house In Lafayette coun-
ty has been destroyed. Nothing is left
of Mayo, the county seat. One man and a
woman were killed near there by falling
tree Another person from Mayo reports
that almost nothing is left of the county.
All of the timber and 95 per cent of the
residences are down.
At Cedar Keys the rescuers are picking
up dead bodies along the coast.
AT Shell Mound, great pleasure resort,
party of eleven, five men, three children
and three women, were camped on the
Suwannee river. A party of surveyors
who were making their way home after
the storm found the dead bodies strewn
on the shore under logs and bushes. They
were close together, which would indicate
that they were simultaneously killed by
the tidal wave. Some of those who went
down TO Cedar Keys last night and re-
turned today say that in addition to the
eleven bodies above, eight others have
been found on the beach. Scores of
spongers and fishermen are still missing
and the probability is they have been
drowned.
The details were meager at first and
gave but faint idea of the devastation
that had been wrought by the storm and
of the destitution of hundreds of people
along the path of the tempest. From
Cedar Keys, on the gulf, almost to the
doors of Jacksonville, come the heart
rending stories Of ruin.
The storm not only laid the forests low,
bnt swept away residences and out build
ings, and left hundreds If not thousands
of people without food or shelter. The
condition Is one of actual suffering that
has rever before been experienced IN this
state. From all parts Of the stricken dis
trict come appeals for aid that cannot
but touch the hearts of all who read of
them. In a private letter that was re-
ceived in the city yesterday from a resi-
dent of Cedar Keys was this appeal
For Gods sake do something for us.
Come and see for yourself the ruin and
devastation that has been wrought here"
From Baker county comes a similar ap-
peal, although couched in different lang
uage. Other sections of the stricken dis
trict will be obliged to ask for outside aid
for the destitute. In fact, the reports
show that in some counties that lay in
the path of the storm scarcely a house
was left standing, and the crops were
ruined as If forest fire had swept over
them. The damage is of such a nature
that 1t cannot be pictured in words, and
must be seen to be realized,

The following resolution was presented
and adopted:
Resolved, That the executive commit

urge the clubs represented in this con-
vention and all those affiliating with
them, to use their best endeavors as clubs
and individuals. to swell the New York

made by the people for the benefit of the

At Z O'clock the crowd at the auditorium
was augmented by those who had waited
from the afternoon, and when the doors
were thrown open rush was experienced
which bordered upon a panic. The ex-
citement was allayed by a double quar-
tette, which rendered a number Of pa

sergeant-at-arms was ordered to open
the doors of the, building to the public and
in less than ten minutes the entire audi
torium was crowded with an audience
which numbered at least 1900 people.
The crowd was so great that the police
force was inadequate to the emergency
and the people poured into the audito-
rum until at least $4,000 people were con-
gregated in space provided for 10000
people.
At $3.50 p. m. the crowd became so
demonstrative that Governor elect Jones
of Arkansas responded to the clamors of
the audience and delivered an address in
favor of the silver standard.
Mrs. Worth, president of the Woman's
National league of Bryan and Sewall
clubs, was introduced to the delegates
and made a Stirring address on behalf of
her club, urging the delegates to use their
efforts toward their organization for wo-
mems clubs throughout the United States.
Her address was frequently applsuded.
Mr.. ]. w, Kelley, representing the col
lege boys of the United States as presi-
dent of the Association of College clubs,
also made a brief and well worded ad-
dress to the assembled delegates, which
was heartily applauded.
MIR. Bryan was received with the Wild

ginning to end, was punctuated with the
greatest applause.

railway station.
Salem has ladies' Bryan club, and
its members were thsre in force, carry

standstill great shout went up. Mr..
Bryan, standing on the platform, was
"cousined' and BILLED" to his heart S
content for minute or two. Then he
made little speech, in which he said:
Friends, we have stopped here for
but minute. but was anxious to stop
longer, not only to see you again, but to
tell you that If you have heard any ru-
mors of my falling health that they are

ty." (Cheers.)
When the candidate concluded more
cheers were given. He INTRODUCED Con-
gresham McMillin, who talked to the
crowd about his personal knowledge of
Mr.. Bryan, while the latter went on the
forward platform of the car and shook
hands with relatives and fiends.
