Speaking Thcre-A Denomination That

ONEoSTA, n Y. oct. 20. In accordance
with plans made by tho Republican campaign
managers Senator Dcpew and several other
spclllnnders started out from New York city
on Mr.. Bryan's trail this morning when no
resumed his tour Of tho Empire State The
trail lay through Albany and Schohare coun-
ties and at some stations the crowd upon whom
Mr.. Bryan had unoadcd his stock OF bogeys
had only 10 wait for Il few minutes before Mr..
Depew appeared To reply TO the silver candidate.
| lie was so close behind Mr.. Bryan that he had
a chance to get at the people and show the
fallacy Of Mr. Bryan's arguments while these
were still fresh in their minds In obedience
10 instructions telegraphed ahead the Re-
publican committeeman at the places at
which Mr.. Bryan stopped took notes OF his
speeches and a short glance at these made
Mr. Depew familiar with what had been said
| Where Mr. Bryan made imperialism his para
mount issue" Mr. Depew showed what a shadow
It was. and where the lO-to-l candidate talked
about trusts tho inconsistency Of the Demo-
cratic attitude on that question was shown
before tho sound Of the Bryan train died away
| among the hills
Senator Dcpew had no difficulty In doing
this with the audiences that greeted him at
tho various railway stations along the Della.
ware ami Hudson Railroad, until the town Of
| Coblcsk was reached. There. at what tho
| Republicans had planned TO be the biggest
meeting Of the day, the right OF free speech
was denied Senator Depew. The effect Of
Bryan's teachings was also shown. In ali tho
campaigning which Mr.. Depew has done
| through the length and breadth OF this State
| he has never met with another experience
similar TO that which he had this afternoon.
| While Mr. Bryan spoke at Cobleskl he was not
| even interrupted with questions Three hours
/ later. in spite OF appeals from the local Repub-
! licans for fair play and the right OF free speech,
| Senator Depew was hissed. howled at and
gre ted with what appeared to be prearranged
cheers for Bryan. These were kept UP without
| oiminutiou until the senator, after utterlng
