WORKING FORCE INCREASES
Scarcity Of Labor Causes Uneasiness In
Middle West.

New York, October l9.-R. G. Dun &
Co. IS weekly review Of trade will say to-
morrow;
More seasOnable weather had important
influence throughout the country, but
the coal strike continued as the restrain
ing factor IN business. As speculation
everywhere is on q small scale the effect
is ninimizsd. Lower prices recently for
some iron products have been without
disturbing force, and the hrmer market
for print cloth and strong quotations for
lumber, show that in some directions in
the great industries a small increase IN
demand is capable OF raising prices.
The situation still promises a recovery
when politics and tho strike are set
tied. Distribution Of merchandise at
ths West IS still very active. The work
ing force is Increasing steadily and IN
railroad and manufacturing circles in
the middle west scarcity OF labor is caus-
ing uneasiness.
Failures for the week were 223 in the
United States against 164 last year and
3 IN Canada against y last year.

Candidates Clever Def
milton Of a Farmer.
How lie Turned the Laugh On a
DistUrber.

Portsmouth, Ohio, October l2.-Mr.
Bryan concluded the first day Of his Ohio
campaign in this city tonight. He was
met at the depot By a torchlight process
sion, and escorted to a square in the CEN
ter OF the city, where he spoke from a
platform in the open air. The ameeting
was By far the largest OF the day, and
was thoroughly enthusiastic. The Re
publicans also held a torchlight process
sion in the city tonight with speeches by
Senator SpOOner and eX-COngresgman W
D. Bynum. The lines OF march of the
two parties were so arranged as not TO
conflict, and there was no clash. A ma
jOrity OF the meetings during the day
were not so largely attended nor so dem
OnstratiTe as those OF the Indiana and
Illinois tour of last week
At Springfield, where Mr.. Bryan had
one Of the best crowds Of the day, some
enthusiastic admirer N the crowd
shouted: "HuIrab Tor the farmer Presi-
dent" The ex9lamati on attracted Mr.
Bryan attention and he said:
81 do not want to be elected under false
pretenses, 1 am not a farmer. I am an
agriculturalist you know the difference
between them. A farmer is a man who
makes his m ouey on the farm and spends
1t In town, while an agricuIturalist is a
man who makes his money in town and
spends it on the farm"
Xhe definition Of the farmer pleased the
audience
Mr.. Bryan began his speech at Ports
mouth at eight o'clock and had no sooner
commenced than bugIe call was sounded
on a house top across the street. There
were other noisy demonstrations and it
looked for a time as If there were to bs
unfriendly Interruptions. Mr. Bryan
caught the situation prompt ly and said:
Perhaps that is simply a touch of
min5arism.' -
This turned the laugh of the crowd up
on the bugler and he was heard no more.
Mr.. Bryan entered upon an elaborate ar
gument to show that the Republican
party had forfeited the confidence of the
people at large while the Democratic
party was Offering remedies for the evils
of the present time.
He spoke for about an hour and at the
close Of the meeting left for ChilIicothe,
where he Will make his first speech to-
morrow,
