The Campaign.

New YORK, NOV. 3-Much to the dis
appointment of all interested in the par
ade held under the auspices of the Bus
mess Mems Republican Sound Money
Association, this morning opened with
cold rain falling, and the streets were
in bad condition. Governor Roose-
welt reviewed the parade. Along the
line of march were wooden poles, erect
ed by the Democrats on which We're
such sentences as TRUSTS can make
you march, but cannot make you vote
against Bryan" The honor of having
the largest number of men in line was
claimed by the wholesale dry goods
they had $4,000 men in line.
Many clubs had not even had the
chance of forming in line up to p. M,
when $4,000 men had passed the stand.
1t was thought that it would be after
dark before all could reach Madison
Square
The procession started at 9:35 with the
candidate for the vice presidency in an
open barouche. The governor declined
to shield himself from the rain, saying
he could stand it better than the thous-
ands who were to march.
The immense crowds, which were eX-
pected to gather around the reviewing
stand on Madison Square early in the
morning had not appeared at 1O:3O
o'clock. The drizzling rain which had
fallen for hours soaked the seats, and
gave the decorations in consequence
draggled appearance. The committee
in charge of the arrangements were
hopeful for fine weather, and had made
no preparations for adverse conditions.
At 1O:45 the big stand designed to
hold 5000 people, contained less than a
third of that number. Colonel Roose-
welt reached the stand exactly at IL
O'Clock. He stood in his carriage and
waved his hat to the shouting throngs.
The men who filed past the stand barred
their heads despite the rain, and the
governor did the same. "Hello. Ted
dy." "three cheers for the next vice
president" "you're all right" were
shouts that greeted Roosevelt. Contin-
uous cheers mingled with the music of
the bands, and drowned all other
sounds.
ELECTION WEATHER.
Washington, D. c.. Nov. 3.-Willis L.
Moore chief of the weather bureau,
makes the following statement to the
Associated Press regarding the weather
on election day: Fall rains have set in,
therefore it is reasonable to expect
considerable area on election day that
will have foul weather. Exactly which
states will be affected however, we will
not be able to determine before Sunday
night. But we do not expect both New
York and the Ohio valleys will get fair
weather at the same time"
