BRApsTREET,s REVIEW
Demand for Staple Goods at
Various Points,

a.rIL. hhEb .l
New York, Oct. 1O.-Bradstreet's to-
lay says:
Colder weather, continued heavy re-
.eipts of cotton and wheat and other
Influences have stimulated demand for
staple goods at various points, but the
volume of trade remains moderate,
without material change from a week
ago. The tendency at some centers is
to a smaller volume Of trade, but the
general outlook is for an improved de-
mand after election. Interior mer-
chants are inclined to examine intos
credits closely. Except in the cotton
and wheat regions mercantile collec.
lions continue unsatisfactory.
The Pacific coast reports increasing
activity in wheat, the noteworthy fea-
lure being a cargo of wheat exported
TO India. Total exports of wheat from
both coasts of the United States and
from Montreal, hour included as wheat,
continue to attract attention in view of
short supplies in Russia, India, Argen-
tine II Australia. The domestic
wheat crop is more likely to approxi-
mate 900, 000, 900 bushels his year than
only 400, 600, 900, the general interpreta-
ton of the government wheat crop re-
port. With the prospect favorable to
IN exceptionally large demand for
wheat for export within the next six
months, a larger supply than hereto
fore reported is likely to prove fortu-
nate. h total exports of wheat this
week amour to 4,G50,702 bushels,
against 4,215. 900 bushels last week and
|, 244 900 bushels in the first week OF 0r-
tober, 1895.
There were 219 business failures in
The United States reported this week, a
decline of "a as compared with last
week. There were 81 business failures
reported from the Canadian dominion
TOR the week.

Fellow Citizens: Put on your hats,
SO as not to take cold. I have only thir-
ty minutes to talk to you, and I want to
use every minute of the time. We are
in the midst Of a presidential campaign
much depends. If our opponents are
right in their declarations that the gold
standard should be maintained in this
country until foreign nations consent
to its abandonment, then, my friends,
the election of an advocate of free coin
age would be an injury to the co,.atry.
If, on the other hand, we are right in
our contention that there should be no
permanent prosperity until we restore
silver to Its ancient place, permitting
1t to enter the mints on equal terms
with gold, I say, II we are right, then
the maintenance OF a gold standard is
a crime against the American people.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Oct. 10.-Yesterday
vas Bryan day in Sioux Falls. The
populists and democrats and ex-repub-
licans have been hard at work for two
weeks to make it an overwhelming
demonstration. They have sent men
and letters all over the state to organize
crowds to come down here. They Sc
cured a one and one-fffth fare from thA
railroads, and four special trains were
run, while 0 regulars ran in and out
conveniently for visitors. The whole

The schools were dismissed and the peo-
pie turned ont. The day was a bad one.
1t rained early in The morning, and.
while 1t cleared up by 8 o'clock n the
sun came out, 1t vas threatening. A
crowd of 25, 900 people was expected, and
Chairman Estabrook Of the state COM
mittee placed the expectation at 10000.
The trains brought In, according TO the
report of the railroad officials, 1900 peo-
pie, while from 1,500 to 1000 farmers
drove in. The special train with the
candidate arrived at afand were received
with enthusiasm, About 1000 men with
a dozen bands escorted him through the
crowded streets to the residence of G. A.

served with six invited guests. This oc-

SILVER FORCES MARCHED.
An Army of Bryan Supporters March

hL r. .uH..
Chicago, Oct. 1o.-After the monster
demonstration by the sound money
men in the morning it was necessary for
the silver forces to put their best foot
forward last night, and they improved
he opportunity to the utmost. AS
early as 6 o'clock, within an hour after
Michigan enu had cleared up after
the marching republicans. the leading
organizations of the democratic parade
began to appear for their torchlight pro-
cession. They poured in rapidly, and
by I o'clock the streets were packed
again. One division formed on Michi-
gan avenue and as soon as 1t passed
Washington street the second wheeled
in behind. The West Side column
formed in Haymarket square, and 1t
poured over Randolph street bridge,
Joining the main procession at the corr
ner of Randolph and Market streets. (
The parade. after being formed at Mar
ket and Randolph streets, marched south
to Jackson street and then turned south
on Michigan avenue to Sixteenth street,
along which 1t marched to Tattersal's;
where the silver meeting was In progress.
At this point it d:sbanded.
The cod wind and the fatigues Of the
early part of the day had los effect on the
NUMBER OF spectators, and the night pa.
rade was not witnessed by the large
crowds of the morning and afternoon.
However the Bryan men IN the parade and
those on the sidewalks showed no de-
ic.ency of enthusiasm during the march.
The yells and cheers went up constantly,
and as about every other man in line had
possessed himself of a tin horn, the vol.
IN Of nose was d%eafening. The slowly,
decreasing number of torchl.ghts in the
parade was compensated for by the great
number Of calcium lights carried. There
were fully fifty of these, and they made
the streets az light as day.
Tho democratic campaign managers ex-
pressed themselves as more than satisfied
With the parade. and were greatly pleased
over the showing made.
The parade was over an hour and a half
in passing a gwen point.
A high wind arose in the course OF the
evening and made 1t a matter OF diff.
Guilty to keep torches and Transparent.
cies alight. Several OF the latter caught
fire and had to be thrown to one side.
The commanding of9csrs of the parade
had decided against the presence Of
floats in the line, n consequently the
parade was composed Very largely OF
men on foot.

estimates, 5000. 900 bushels. Western
receipts for the week were 7,243,969

Mr.. Arbuckle opposed this plan, how

John P. Allison and A. F. Nash of the
reception committee. When they step

Nash slid their arms into those of Mr..
Bryan at each side and locked them
and started for the carriage.
Mr.. Bryan was attired in a dark col
ored fall o%vercoat, the collar of which
was turned up. His hands were buried
in the pockets at the side and he walked
with his hin under the collar of his
coat to protect himself from the rain,
which now came down in a perfect tor
rent. Mr.. Bryan as he stepped from the
train looked tired and worn out. His
face is much thinner than is portrayed
in his photographs which is evidence
that the strain of speaking SO many
times a day is telling upon him.
The candidate was escorted into a
covered landau drawn by o beauti-
full black horses and driven to the I'M

members of the Sloan Bryan club on
horseback preceded the carriage.
