New York, Oct. 27.-This city over-
flowed with republican enthusiasm
last night on the occasion of the re-
ception arranged for Gov. Roosevelt.
beginning with the arrival at the
Grand Central station at $50 o'clock,
Until along towards midnight, when
the Rough Rider" went to his sis
ter's home for the night, there was
such n series of receptions, such %
burning of fireworks. such electrical
displays and such volumes of elo-
Guencc as are seldom seen in New
York. 1t was the climax of the cam
didate's tour of thousands of miles
and his friends made the streets ring
with their shouts of welcome home.
"Hooray fer Teddy" Three cheers
for the goyernor!' whats the mat
ter with the next vice PRESIDENT"
were some of the shouts that greeted
Roosevelt when he alighted from the
train. At the end Of the platforms
there was a minute of delay and u
number of women insisted on shaking
hands with the governor. The party
finally got into the carriages and
away to Fifth avenue. The crowd
kept up the cheering until the party
was out of view. The governor was
rheered all along the line and at the
fifth Avenue hotel the scenes about
the station were largely repeated.
While the governor was at dinner
the crowds gathered in Madison
Square. At $50 O'Clock the fireworks
display began. Every invention i'll the
pyrote clinical line was utilized and
some of the displays took the crowd
by storm. Great set pieces OF The
Full Dinner PAIL and representa-
tions of Mckinley and Roosevelt were
cheered vigorously. The democratic
mutoscope on the Barrholdi hotel
! oof was at work all the time throw
ing notices on the Dewey arch, on
the clouds and on the walls of the
buildings around the square, but the
republicans ignored it. Another feat
Ure was the playing of the bands in
unison, directed by searchlight and
the vast choruses singing.
The governor reached Madison
Square Garden at 7:5S o'clock. The
audience stood waving flags and
cheering when the governor appear
cd. There was a great tumult. Bands
were pIa wing hard to make their mu-
sic heard, but except to those imme-
diateIy alongside they might have
kept silent. The applause lasted nine
minutes. Gen. Greene introduced the
governor.
Hon. c. w. FairChild, eX-sccrctary
Cf the treasury, followed Gov. Roose-
welt. An exodus from the garden be.
gan with the close of the governors
address. The noise almost drowned
Mr.. Fairchild's voice. lie could not be
heard 30 feet distant.
Il. b. OdelI, candidate for governor
of New York. accused Mr.. Bryan of
concealing the main issue of the cam
paign behind the imperialism ques-
tion. EX-Gov. Black spoke next. The
last address of the evening, at the
garden, was delivered by John s.
Richards. solicitor general of the
United States.
Newark, \. j., Oct. 27.--Hon. Will
liam j. Bryan yesterday concluded
his campaign tour of New Jersey.
The day was a successful one in that
the crowds which he addressed were
both attentive and of a fair size, but
the ma iority of them were neither so
large nor as demonstrative as those
of New York.
The tour was made over the Della
ware dS Lackawanna railroad, the
most distant point touched being Do
yer, 40 miles south of New York. The
other towns at which speeches We're
made were Hobollen, Harrison, Or
anme, Summit, Morristown, Boonton,
Paterson. Bellevile and Newark,
three speeches being made at the lat
ter place. In reality Mr.. Bryan's
Thursday work extended into Friday,
for he did not retire yesterday morn
ing until about O'Clock, and one of
the pIeasantest occasions of Thurs
dav night was the last of the series.
When he reached his hotel in Hobo
ken. after his carriage tour of the
city, he found about 500 German citi-
zens awaiting his arrival. They ten
dcred him a serenade.
The scene when Mr.. Bryan entered
the Kruger Auditorium in Newark
was thrilling one. The building
was crowded to its utmost capacity
and when the candidate entered all
those present began a tumultuous
shouting They did not cease this
demonstration until Mr.. Bryan rose
to proceed. Then as if by magic the
tumult ceased and ali listened in the
utmost silence except for occasional
bursts of applause.
When he finished on the inside of
the building he found on the outside
a crowd ten times as big as had lis
tened to him within the building. lie
was compelled to make speech
there and after that effort he pro-
ceedcd to baseball park, where he
made the last address of the night,
closing shortly before midnight.
