governor said in part:
I have hitherto asked Mr.. Bryan IN
vain to answer whether If elected he will
pay the outstanding obligations in gold
or in silver; that is. whether it is the
secretary of the treasury or the credit
ors who have the right to choose the
coin in which to be paid. Mr.. Bryan
having failed to answer I will now
change the form Of my question. On
February IA, 1895, IN the house of rep
resentativeS. on the question of the gold
bond resolution Mr.. Bryan spoke in part
as follows: q condense) We insist
that outstanding bonds are payable in
gold or silver, and that the United States
has the right to choose the coin. The
debtor always has the choice Of the coin
where only one coin is mentioned. The
secretary of the treasury has the legal
right to redeem gTeenbacks and treasury
notes in silver and thus protect the peo-
pie from the gold hoarders and gold ex-
Dorters We should compel President
Cleveland to protect the government by
redeerning in silver when that is more
convenient. We believe that greenbacks
and treasury notes are redeemab bic III
either gold or silver at the option OF the
government.
IN speeches in the house Of represen-
tatives on December 22 1894. Mr. Bryan
said: The members Of this congress
might just as well meet this question.
The present secretary of the treasury
(AIr. Carlisle) has construed the law to
mean that the option really applies to
the note holder, and the same principle
has been applied to the greenbacks I
find the English language hardly ade-
auate to express my feelings on that
subject There is not a lawyer that
would apply such a doctrine IN anything
except finance I am IN favor (of the
construction) that the government has
the option and can exercise IT to pay in
silver when it wants to- And if we have
it why not exercise it and not turn over
our finances to the control of those who
conspire to defeat the purposes of the
government
Il now ask Mr.. Bryan whether his
views are still the same as they were
when eh made those two speeches, and,
if so. why he refuses TO meet the ques-
ton now when he then said that con
gress ought to meet i1?',

the Washburn players Early in the

DOESN'T KNOW A TRUST
Senator Hanna Says Bryan is
Ignorant on That Subject.

Chicago, Oct 27.-The Auditorium was
filled last night with an immense audi
ence brought together to hear Senators
Hanna, of Ohio. and Burrows. OF Afichi-
gan. under the auspices Of the Republi-
can Railroad employees OF Chicago. The
audience was to a large extent composed
Of railroad men and the chairman OF the
meeting was Lot Brown, agent OF the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railway
Unbounded enthusiasm was manifested
throughout, the speeches and a large
crowd unable TO find room IN the Audi
torium was entertained by local orators
on the lake front An elaborate display
of fireworks followed the close OF the
meetings
After making a brief speech in the
open air, Senator Hanna entered the
Auditorium near the close OF Mr.. Bur-
rows address He was given a gener-
Gus round of applause and when he rose
to speak the audience cheered for sever
al moments
This is the greatest object lesson in
coercion" said Senator Hanna. that I
ever have seen. I am in sympathy With
the men gathered here even IL they are
here under orders, as has been charged
by the opposition But think the only
coercion they have had is the coercion OF
their own consciences-
Il saw the president and told him
about this meeting tonight, and he sends
greeting TO the loyal railway men Of IL
1inois. Now imperialism and other col
lateral issues in this campaign are only
designed to bewilder and mislead the
voters It is an insult to the intelligence
Of the people TO think that they do not
know and understand the questions
which affect them so directly as those
which are the paramount issues in this
campaign. In sheer desperation Bryan
has abandoned real issues and descend
ed TO the low plane Of a demogogue and
is making his appeal on the issue Of
class against class. That is an admis-
sion of defeat
IF the business men thought there
was q possibility Of Bryan being elected
you would see such a paralysis Of busi-
ness that has never been known.
As to the question Of trusts" he con-
tinued, Bryan does not know what
trust is and has advanced no arguments
as to the proper way to suppress them.
Bryan claims that every manufacturing
institution in the United States that
controls large interests is a trust He
says his remedy would be to put upon
the free list every product of every in
dustry in a trust if ne had the power to
do this. except in the case OF the ice
trust and the cotton bale trust If that
was done, every branch of manufactur-
ing in the United States would be para
lyzed- The result would be no revenue
to the government and therefore direct
taxation would be the only method OF
raising the expenses OF the govern
Knent.s

Chicago, Oct 27.-Business was gen.
orally suspended in Chicago today and
the city gave itself up to the prosper
ity'' parade. The prediction of pleasant
weather was amply fulfilled, the bright
ly shining sun and the soft and balmy
atmosphere, making an ideal autumnal
day. Every industry Of the city was
represented in the floats that inter-
spersed the procession, and each march
er wore a badge on which are the words
Mckinley was right
Among those occupying the ereviewing
stand were United States Senator Han
na, chairman of the Republican commit
tee: Vice Chirrnan Henry c. Payne, ma
tionaI committeeman, Stewart, New ana
Kerens and United States Senators Cul-
lorn and Mason of Illinois. The parade
started at 10 o'clock All along the route
the business houses and Office buildings
were profusely decorated with the ma
tional colors and streamers bearing the
legends:
MCKINLEY was right" Sound money
and prosperity and kindred inscrip-
tiOnS, together with representations or

At the head Of the parade walked two
elephants bearing banners inscribed;
&c o. P-The real thing" Behind the
two pachyderTns followed a donkey be-
decked with bells and a clownish cap
upon its head Farther back IN the col
uInn was a stuffed elephant drawn by
horses This elephant lead the advance

escorted the Americus club Of PittsburS-
Another large delegation was the KeEo-
sha CWis.) Republican Marching club, Of
ZOO members.
In the line Of parade were regiments
of men in uniform, drawn from scores Of
business houses which together with the
banks, stock exchange. and board of
trade had closed for the occasion These
narchers carried full dinner pals and
banners The workmen's Republican
clubs conspicuous among which were
several representing the large packing
houses Of the stockyards made notable
showing as did the uniformed division
of the Cook County Republican legion
attired in Khaki under the leadership of
Congressman William Lorimer. Through
out the parade the industrial features
were unique. A notable section was the
Republican students league comprising
delegations from the various education
al institutions of Chicago.
The numerical strength of the parade
was variously estimated, but was appar-
emily greater than the Sound Money
parade given on Chicago day. October
9, 1896, which was regarded then as a
record breaker.

Plot to Assassinate French
President Discovered.

Lyons, oct 27-The Nouveliste de
Lyon says a plot to assassinate Presi-
dent Loubet has been discovered.
It appears that a working electrician
named Couterier burglariously entered
the electric company's premises at
Mines, stealing $500 francs. He was
tracked to Orange, near Lyons. where
he was arrested. Documents found on
his person revealed, the paper says, an
anarchist conspiracy to assassinate
President Loubet on his coming visit to
Lyons to unveil monument erected TO
the memory OF President CarRot
Couterier is said to have committed
the burglary in order to obtain funds
to carry out mis- project. He has, 1t is
added, confessed to the police who are
now tracking his accomplices and
watching anarchists in order to prevent
any attempt to carry out the scheme.
