to the Rudd House, of which he was the
guest while in this city. He held an in
formal reception from to ii O'Clock, and
in that time received quite d number of
visitors. There were small delegations in
the city from adjacent counties. At p.

bers of which were made up of the Owens

numbered about 1000 people, nearly 1000

slightest disorder excepting when a police
man had to be called oquell some negroes

come little noisy. His address lasted
about hour. and by the gold-standard
people was well received. The speaker was
introduced by the Hon. r. III. Taylor, of
this city, in a very brief address, in which
he paid very high compliment to the Sec

on the point that he had not changed his
financial views since 1892. The silver peo-
pie were as anxious that Mr.. Carlisle
should have nothing but the most cour
teous treatment while in the city as were
his most ardent admirers, and several sill
yer men were sworn in special police

any be offered.

CONVICTION. KY, Oct 26.-Odd Fellows
Hall was crowded tonight by men exclu-
sively without distinction of party to ex-
press Indignation at the insult offered Sec
rotary Carlisle in that hall on last Thurs
day night. The chairman chosen was Hon.
Harvey Meyers, one of the electors on the
Democratic w. J. Bryan ticket for Ken
lucky. In his speech on taking the chair
Mr.. Meyers said that Secretary John G.
Carlisle of all men afford to let the
outrage to him go unnoticed. Mr.. c. e. Sim
rail- presented series of resolutions In
doing 50 he said that owing to promises
from the Mayor and police that offenders
shall be ferreted out and prosecuted the
resolutions omitted a condemnation of Off
Gals. as first intended, yet four days had
elapsed since the outrage and not a single
arrest had been made.
Mayor Rhineock rose and said that John
Fagin. charged with throwing IA cigar at
Carlisle, before the court to-day and
his case was pending. He said he had ap-
pealed to the Council to offer a reward for
the men that threw the eggs. He said the
police would make arrests if they could
find the perpetrators.
George H. Thoebe. who polled IA big vote
for Congress as Carlsle'S competitor ten
years ago, rose and said: The Mayor
does not recognize the rowdyism OF the
gang of disturbers in the hall or of the
great crowd that followed Mr.. Carlisle with
insults on the street with ten policemen
marching beside them"
Theodore Italian offered substitute
which included a denunciation of inter-
rnptions to w J. Bryan at Yale and else
where. They were unanimously voted
down. The regular resolutions unanimous
ly adopted condemn the outrage to Mr.
Carlisle In unmeasured terms dscIaim the
duct and call upon the city government to
detect and punish the perpetrators. There
was not a single nay against the resolu-
lions. The Mayer was severely handled i'm
the audience, who charged him and his po-
lice with coming short of their duty.
