the people of Jefferson have taken so
much interest on the girls behalf. Mr..
Mecum says that he can raise bonds to-
the amount of $4,000 in a days notice,
If necessary. and that any money the
young woman wants will be forthcom-
ing. The deputy informed Mr.. Mecum
that she needed nothing at present, and
Sc she did he would inform him at once.

KEPT A DIGNIF1ED SILENCE
Campaign Club From Cornong Also
Had a Merry ReceDtion-The
Governors Defense of the
Administrations.

ELMIRA, N. Y, Oct. 29.-For the first
time in New York state, and in the home
of the Democratic candidate for governor
Theodore Roosevelt was assaulted on the
streets of Elnnira tonight on his way to
the places of meeting. He was in a car
riage with former Senator Fassett, and at
several points along the route was pelted
with eggs and vegetables and greeted with
the vilest epithets. He maintained dig
nified silence, while the police looked ON
quiescentIy.
The campaign club from Cornong was
also assaulted personally, and bitter
fight ensued In the places of meeting
the governor had no Interruptions After
it was over he said:
1T was nasty conduct the conduct of
hoodlums''
Gov. Roosevelt finished the first day of
his second weeks campaign in this state
by an invasion of the home of the Demo-
cratic candidate for governor, Hon. John
b. Stanchfield. At Ithaca the governors
reception was of a most friendly nature
and he paid a compliment to one of the
college men, son of Richard Croker, by
refusing to do as he has generally done
at other stops, make a personal attack
upon the Tammany leader. In his speech
he did not mention the name of Mr..
Croker. At Vannetten he made a short
address. His welcome in Elmira was a
great political demons tration. There were
nearly thousand mounted rough riders,
and the Lyceum and new Tivoli theater
were crowded with people eager to hear
the governor speak. and overflow outdoor
meetings Were held. Fully 29,00O peop.e
were in town.
DEFENDS MKINLEY.
The governor today, at all three of his
stops, and especially in Elmira tonight,
devoted himself principally to a defense
Of the national administration He said
in part:
I wish to appeal not merely to Repub-
llcanS, but TO all good citizens, to stand
for the reelection of President MeKin. ey
and the election of Mr. OdelI as governor.
L call your attention especially to the
TACT that III the States as in the nation,
performances and not mere promise Our
opponents are apt TO talk about the great
things they Will do on behalf of the
WorKlngman and against trusts and b.,;
corporations. We take no attitude of i'll
discriminating YindictiVeneSs, but what
We DO promise We dc.
During the past six years we have put
| pGn the statute books and have enforced
better and wider laws N the interest of
the WageWorker and for the proper regu-
tauCn and control of great corpora tons
than our opponents ever put On during the
uIme they had control in Albany.
When the history OF the closing years
written, President McKinley's figure will
loom larger and larger. No other presi-
dent since Lincoln. no other president for
over a generation preceding Lincoln, has
had to face such great tasks or has faced
them SO we'll.

AT TATTERsALL,s TONIGHT.
MfddleyyeiGhts Byers and Tim MUIR
ply Ready to Eight

PAy 1SdOy 10 F1SHls
CHICAGO, Oct 29.-George Byers and
Australian Tim Murphy, the crack mid
dleweights who will meet in the wind-up
at Tattersall's tomorrow night, finished
training for their battle today. Both
are in prime condition as result of the
hard work they have done during the
past few weeks.
The local f1stic fans are mostly of the
opinion that Murphy's best chance to
win will be in the earlier stages of the
battle. In point of cleverness the col
ored man has the call, and if the hunt
lasts the scheduled limit of six rounds
should outpoint the slugger from the
Antipodes. With a fighter of Murphy S
rough, head-long style, however, some
sudden and totally unexpected things
are apt to happen soon after he enters
the ring. To win in hurry by virtue
of his deadly knockout punch has al
ways been Murphys favorite method.
He wastes no time In preliminary spar
ring, but goes after an opponent with
the fury OF mad bull He is willing at
all time to take a punch in order to
land one, and can withstand any amount
OF punishment, such as would effectually
put stop to the aspirations of many a
less seasoned pugilist
Against this f1stic whirlwind from a
foreign shore Byers will oppose a good
left-hand. which he, can use to perfec-
ton in Stalling off the wild rushes which
Murphy will probably subject him to.
The BoStonian is fast on his feet and
can get around a ring with the speed of
a greyhound He is past master in the
art of blocking and avoiding punishment.

as far as cieyerness is concerned. But

RECEPTION IN brooklyn
Demonstration in His Honor Unex-

paign Meetings in the
Borough.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.--IWilliam J. Bry-
an tonight brought to close his cleo
tioneering work in the present campaign
in Greater New York by making a speech
to a large and enthusiastic gathering at
Hamilton Fish park, in Manhattan, and
six speeches in Brooklyn. The demonstra-
ton in Brooklyn was one of the largest
political outpourings in the history of the
borough. Over 100 bands furnished nu-
sic and it is estimated that over 10O geo
people saw and heard the Democratic
candidate speak tonight. There were
eight different parades in the borough and
it is estimated that altogether 10000 peo-
pie were in line. Fireworks famed until
midnight from a dozen different stzads
and Greek fire was everywhere. A great
army of policemen kept the crowds in
order and twenty mounted officers met
Mr.. Bryan's party at the bridge entrance
and acted as escort for the remainder Of
the evening. The first speech was made
at the Academy of Music. AS the Bryan
party appeared at the Academy bombs
and skyrockets were set off in front of
the borough hall and filled the sky with
clouds of colored stars Music broke
forth from dozen bands, and the throngs
of people in the streets cheered and
shouted themselves hoarse. The academy
was crowded with an enthusiastic audi
enee, and thousands of people who wished
to hear the Democratic candidate could
not be admitted.
APPLAUSE UNSTINTED.
When Mr.. Bryan appeared on the plat
form the crowd went wild with applause
and it was at least ten minutes before
sufficient quiet could be restored to allow

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Oct. %
A report has reached here from Yakutat
that Mount st. Elias was badly shaken
