In view of favorable weather, 1t
is expected that twenty thousand peO-
pie will greet William Jennings Bryan
upon the occasion of his visit this even
ing to Wheeling, and it bids fair to
eclipse any former demonstration in
Weddings history in point of enthu-
siasm.
The members of the reception COM
mittee depart at 3:45 this afternoon
over the Ohio River road for New Mar
tinsville, where they will meet the Bry-
an party and accompany them to this
city. After the arrival Of the Ohio
River train at 1880 o'clock the disting-
uished guest will be escorted to the
Hotel Windsor, and later to the plat
form on the wharf.
The speakers stand was constructed
yesterday, and this morning will be law
ishly and tastefully decorated with
American flags and streamers and bunt-
ing of the national colors. The plat
form is located at a most advantageous
point for such a meeting. being at the
waters edge on the wharf, at a point
fronting the Windsor, where everybody
in the assembled crowd will be afforded
excellent opportunity of seeing and
hearing the speaker. The stand will
be furnished with the best possible IA
cilities for illumination, probably cleo
triclight bulbs.
Excursion Rates.
The fact, as previously announced,
that nearly every railroad entering the
city offers exceptionally low excursion
rates for the meeting, is insuring of
a large influx of people from various
points, especially throughout the State
and in eastern Ohio, to hear the peerless
advocate of Democratic principles
speak upon the leading political ques-
lions of the day. Large delegations
from all places along the B. & 0. road
are expected, owing to the inducements
of half rate excursion tickets on this
line between Warrington and Wheel
ing. Cut rates have also been secured
over the Pewiky and Ohio River roads
and many persons will, no doubt, come
in over these lines. 1t is announced that
the fare for the round trip between
Canal Dover, Ohio, and Wheeling for
the occasion will be 81. and that COM
paratively low rates save been offered
by the railroads for the trip from other
points in the eastern part of the Buck
eye State. Therefore, the indications
point to the Ohio side being well rep
resented in the turnout.
Mr.. Bryan addressed a large and en-
thusiastic assemblage yesterday at Nor
gan's Grove. He will speak this morn
ing at the Eastern Panhandle fair at
Clarksbtlrg,s and again this afternoon
at Parkersburg before coming to Wheel
ing.
Chief Clemans will be in charge Of
the police escort for the meeting.

TIFFANVs MEN AT WORK AGAIN.
MORE THAN HALF OF THE STRIKING EN-
GRAVERs SAID TO HAVE RETURNED
TO THE FACTORY.

1t declared at the store OF Tiffany & Co. in
Union Square yesterday that the backbone of the
strike Of the copperplate engravers the firms
factory at Forest Hill N J.. had been broken A
representative of the firm said that half the men
had returned TO work unconditionally-that is on
the same terms those under which they had
worked before the strike He added that the ring
leaders OF the strike would not be taken back
under any conditions, but that their places were
being filed by men selected from the many
applicants who had applied for places.
The strike of the engravers a surprise TO the
laborng world. it generally conceded that
they we're among the highest paid workmen in the
country. They earned from $50 to 800 a week the
firm declared, and many OF them had worked for
Tiffany & Co for fifteen twenty years. There
dispute wages hours OF labor but
the strikers insisted that the firm should recognize
their union. This the firm refused to do, saying
that IT'S business was peculiar and delicate one
and could not be subjected to union conditions or
rules. The firm had objection to its employees
belonging to a union, but II man had superior
talent for the work required OF him it could not
insist that he must be union man. The firm
could not make any discriminat tion between union
and non-union men. It's business was such, how
ever, that it rarely changed its employees was
shown by the fact that most Of them had been
with the firm so long. Many of the men own their
own homes in Forest Hill
