Bryan at the Hoffman House at 5:30 o'clock this afternoon Colonel Bry- ans portrait, framed in a silk American flag was just behind the chair reserved for Mayor Van Wyck, the presiding officer. It was discovered during the afternoon that the curator had, in arranging the portrait of MT. Bryan, intertwined the Filipino and American coors about the picture. This was believed to be an error and the col ors of Aguinaldo were removed.
 Colonel Bryan did not drink his wine. Mayor Van Wyck sat in an inlaid chair brought from Arabia. On either side of him, two and two, were special chairs on which sat Colonel Bryan, MT. Croker, Adlai E. Stevenson and William R. Hearst When all were seated. Colonel Bryan was between Cro1er and Van Wyck. The other guests at the main table were

Mir. Bryan En Route

Utica, N. Y, October 16-William J. Bryan reached Utica at $50 o'clock today en route from Cleveland to New York City, where he will make his first speech in the State tonight at Madison Square Garden.
 MT Bryan was accompanied from Cleve- land by Mayor Jones of Toledo, who will be with him during the greater part of his New York tour. He also joined at Cleveland by Norman Mack, Democratic committeeman of this State.
 MT. Bryan entered his stateroom immed- lately upon returning from the last of his Cleveland meeting last night, and did not emerge therefrom till Buffalo was an- nounced. There were several calls for him by crowds on the way after leaving Cleve- land, but he did not respond to any of them. It had not been his intention to make any speeches7on his way to New York City, and the train stops were not long enough tC permit his doing so if he desired.
 MT. Bryan has prepared no speech for New York, but will talk extemporaneously in all his meetings there. MT. Bryan eX- presses his qualification over the success of the Ohio meetings.

rich that he can get beyond the Ten Com mandments. I want this nation to stand before the world as the great moral factor in the worlds progress"
 John B. Stanchfeld, William F. Maekey Franklin Quinby and Congressman suzser then spoke.
 It was 10:3O o'clock when Mir Bryan and his party came out of Cooper Union. The crowd seemed to go crazy. It was the most dangerous outlook of the evening and 1t seemed as if scores were to be trampled under foot. Repeatedly the police charged to get Bryan's carriage through, but every time the crowd came back. Night sticks were finally drawn and lane opened long enough to let the Bryan carriage get into Irving Place. Through that street it went up Broadway. Several hundred persons ran in pursuit and kept right after the car riage and escort to Union Square, while hundreds were on the curb. An immense crowd was in front of the Hoffman House to meet Colonel Bryan when he got out of his carriage. He taken to his suite at once. There he received the National, State and Local Committees and was finally turned over to Chairman Frank Campbell of the State Committee for his four day trip which will begin tomorrow through this State.

uurderChareeu Dismissed

Key West Fla, October 16.-In the pre- liminary trial of ex-F'ire Chief B. F. II. Bowers who killed Mrs. Charlotte Knowles in her home in this city last week, Judge Kemp dismissed the charge of murder and held the prisoner only on a charge of carrying concealed weapons. He gave bond and was liberated.
 The coroner's verdict was that Mrs. Char lotte Knowles came to her death at the hands of B. F. H. Knowles.
 This verdict, on motion of the attorneys for Bowers, consented to by the prosecu- ton, was annulled on the ground of ir- regularity in the holding of the inquest and in summoning witnesses.
