oUTWITTED BY THE CUBANS.

Jacksonville, Fla Oct. apparently
the government officials have been out
witted by the Cubans and another
filibustering expedition has started.
The tug Dauntless, which is under
bond to answer to a charge of yiolat-
ing the navigation laws III connection
with a previous expedition, left this
port last Monday morning. and WAS
escorted to the st. Johns bar by the
revenue cutter, Boutelle. The ostensible
objective point of the Dauntless was
Brunswick, Ga, where il was to do
some towing. The captain of a
schooner arriving here to-day reported
that he saw the Dauntless off Cape
Canaveral, and coupled with this state
ment a dispatch from Palm Beach
stating that ammunitions of war were
loaded upon a vessel there last night
The name of the vessel was not stated
but the fact that the Dauntless was
reported to be in the vicinity gives
color to the theory that it is row
on it's way to Cuba with another ex-
pedition.
While this has been going on, two
revenue cutters and the cruiser Newark
have been watching the st. Johns bar
and the river to prevent an expedition
from leaving here. The Newark has
been ordered to make chase after the
Dauntless.

Huron. S. D.. Oct. 9.-SiouX Falls
gave Mr.. Bryan his first real reception
in Dakota. 1t drew on three States
for crowds, Minnesota, Iowa and Dako-
ia. and the crowds were there. 1t was
the most enthusiastic meeting he has
had at any place of its size in the Uni
ted States. Elaborate preparations had
been made and procession OF no mean
proportion was drawn up at the depot
when the special train carrying the
BRYAN party pulled in. 1t was raining
and the day was not one calculated to
inspire enthusiasm or to swell the
crowds.
After luncheon, Mr.. Bryan was taken
to the bvcicle track near the city. BY
this time the rain was pouring in tor
rents. but when he reached the stand
he found an enthusiastic crowd stand
ing In the mud waiting to hear him.
Mr.. Bryan's speech was devoted mainly
to generating Senator Pettigrew from
the charge of disloyalty to the Repuo-
Iican party He said in part:
"Mv friends, there are to me some
occasions which try mems souls. j

HUGE DEMOCRATIC PARADE.
The Democracy of Chicago Takes Pos
session of the Streets.

Chicago. Ill.,, Oct. 9.--The Democracy
held possession of the streets tonight,
and it improved it's opportunity TO the
utmost. AS early as o'clock, within
an hour after Michigan avenue had
cleared up after the marching Repub-
licans, the leading organizations of the
Democratic parade began to appear for
their torch-light demonstration. They
poured i'm rapidly, and by seven o'clock
the street was packed again. A high
wind rose in the evening and made it
a matter of some difficulty to keep
torches lighted. The commanding Of
ficers of the parade had decided against
the presence of floats in The line, and
consequently the parade was composed
very largely of men on foot.
The parade, after being fully formed
at Market and Randolph streets,
marched south to Jackson street, and
then turned south to Michigan avenue
to Sixteenth street, along which it
marched to Tattersalls, where the
silver meeting was in progress. At
this point it disbanded.
The cold wind and the fatigues of
the early part of the day had its eff
feet on the number of spectators, and
the night parade was not witnessed
by the large crowds of the morning
and afternoon. However, the Bryan
men in the parade and those on the
sidewalk showed no deficiency of en-.
thusiasm during the march. Cheers
went up necessarily, and as about
every other man in the line had pos.
sessed himself of a tin horn, the
volume of noise was deafening. The
slowly decreasing number of torch
lights in the parade was fully compen
sated for by the great number of cal
cium lights carried. There were
fully fifty of these, and they made the
| streets as light as day
The Democratic campaigners ex
pressed themselves as more than salts

MANY SPEECHES IN IOWA.
Great Crowds Brave the Cold Weather
s to Hear Mr.. Bryan.

Sious City, Iowa, Oct. 9.-Wm J.
Bryan arrived in Sioux City from Mar
shalltown at 1925 this morning, one
hour behind schedtiIe time. The fact
that the train was late was caused
sf by, the numerous demands of the peo-
plesat he stations along the line to see
the Presidential candidate.
Mr.. Bryan arose about O'Clock, but
nearly all night crowds gathered at the
stations to see the train pass through.
At Onowa, a large crowd had gather
ed, the train stopping for about ten
minutes and Mr.. Bryan went out on
the rear platform and addressed the
people. 1t was bitterly cold and a
strong south wind blew directly into
the speakers face. The people went wild
with delight. When the train arrived
in Sioux City the candidate was greeted
by a large crowd at the depot and he
was escorted to the large train shed
of the Union depot, where he spoke
for 80 minutes to an immense crowd.
It was an enthusiastic reception and
seemed to please Mr.. Bryan. After
tne speech he was driven directly to
the Milwaukee depot, where special
train was waiting to take the party
to Sioux Falls.
At Hawarden and here the farmers
surrounded the car and showed more
enthusiasm than at any place on the
Western trip. There were not so
many of them, but those who were
there shouted and yelled and then
yelled and shouted. Mr.. Bryan made
a short address, telling the people that
they could make more effective
speech in five minutes on election day
than he could make in five minutes
to-day.
Canton, South Dakota, was the next
stopping place and in five minutes
there, Mr.. Bryan spoke briefly TO a
crowd of farmers who heard him with
attention and applause.
Sioux Falls was reached shortly after
2 p. m.

Washington, Oct, 9-The Populist
Campaign Text Book, the last of the
list of these books, went to press to-
day. The following from the preface
to the book is a key to the entire
volume:
The focus of this campaign is the
money question and the voters who
act together in the settlement of this
question on the side of the people will
also be forced to act together for the
proper solution of all the other great
issues contained in the Peoples party
platform. Behind the gold standard,
the monopolies and trusts have massed
their forces, making the real issue
now, whether the monopolies and
trusts will capture the government or
whether the people will be able to
redeem the government from the con-
troll of those who have debauched and
plundered a great and once prosper
