THE DELEGATE FROM HAWAII.
Speaker Henderson Administers the
Oath to Robert W. Wilcox.

Directly after the House of Representa-

tiaIs of Robert W. Wilcox. a delegate in
Congress from the Territory OF Hawaii.
When this had been done Mr.. Wilcox ap-
peared ut the bar accompanied by Dele
gate Perea of New Mexico, and Speaker
Henderson administered the oath of Office.
The new member is tall and dark. He
wears stiff mustache and his dark hair
Is streaked with grey. His physical APP
pearance would seem to indicate that he
had derived a strain OF Scotch blood from
some ancestor. He was warmly greeted
by number of Representatives, Speaker
Henderson being one OF them.
The protest against the seating Of VIII
cox. lodged with the Committee on Elec-
tions No / was not effective. Chairman
TayIer said yesterday that it charged only
in general terms that the election in Ha-
wall was invalid and presented no specin-
cations No protest was made on the count
OF alleged bigamy committed by wilcox in
marrying his present wife.
Mr.. Wilcox says that before the date Of
the present marriage he was notified by
the Italian Consul at Honolulu and by the
Archbishop OF the Catholic Church that
divorce had been granted by the courts of
Italy to his first wife, Il native OF that
country. She did not appear before the
committee. as 4. had been reported she
would do. Chairman Tayler said that it
would have mace no difference; that
controversy over the regularity or validity
of divorce proceedings could not be made
sufficient grounds for refusing to seat
man.
Mr. Wilcox said yesterday when asked
concerning his alleged royalist proclivi-
ties that though he had been a supporter

Milwaukee speech and several other
addresses given during 1893. Either the
Nebraskan Is lost for ideas or too tired
to change his phraseoIogy.
Mr., Bryan told a good story at this
banquet, one which am informed has
never appeared in print He said;
Years ago when !, first came to Me-
braska was young. poor and anxious
to get ahead. Thayer was a candidate
for governor. and the opposition finding
that 1 could talk a little engaged me to
make speeches against him. took to
the work like duck to water. made
ffty speeches against Thayer and Of
ten said some pretty severe things
against him. I am willing to admit
that since then / have often thought
that 1 said things about him which I
ought not to have said. But did, and
that was all there was to It.
'Thayer was elected. After he took
the governors chair he was called to
be toast-master at a banquet to which
/ was invited and at which was sci
down for speech. did not care to go
to that banquet. I did not wish to meet
the governor. remembered all that
had said of him. and felt cheap. l
had also no doubt but that he knew
what 1 had said and would show that
he did when we met face to face. But
went, and was given a place near by
the governor. and sat there through
the early proceedings quite uncOmfOrt-
able.
Finally 1t came time for the COVER
nor to call upon me. He rose from his
seat, with the programme before him.
and slowly said:
Mr. Bryan-Bryan.'
"Then he slowly turned his eyes upon
me and addressed me:
ado you speak or sing?
"That was as much as asking me
what my turn was. and inwardly 1
shriveled to the size Of a plnhead. I
never fell more Inundated in my life,
but lived through 1t, and that is all
ever heard from Governor Thayer as to
what he thought of my campaign
speeches against him."
In the last three speeches delivered
by Mr.. Bryan there were 5000 words.
But, as one of his Chicago acquaint-
ances said recently. the number-of
ideas In the same fell far short of that
total-a fact made painfully plain Sat
urday night.

he Is Not the Man he Was in 1896.
Some Citations.
Chicago Times Herald: William Jen-
nlngs Bryan is not the man mentally
that he was in 1886. and the change is
not for the better. His admirers should
either induce him to remain silent for a
year or more or adopt some other
means OF giving his tongue and his
brain complete rest. The alteration
in what he says and how he says It was
marked at the Jackson banquet last
week. 1t was noticed year ago at
the Milwaukee banquet. where his ut
terances widely departed from the
printed speech which he delivered to
the press before he spoke.
The newspaper corps In Washington
commented with pleasure that Senator
Beveridge in his extended grafton on
the Philippine question made scarcely
a departure from the printed words he
had given them prior to his effort.
This is evidence Of concentration Of
thought, continually of ideas. fresh
ness Of brain power. It marks the ora
tor who has not worn his subject
threadbare. who is vlrile with new
ideas, who is enthusiastic with faith in
his utterances, who is master of his
own tongue.
Last Saturday night Mr.. Bryan gave
to the press what purported TO be his
speech at the Jackson banquet. At .
o'clock Sunday morning ne attempted
to deliver this speech to the Democrats
before him. His wsnderings were SO
marked. he removed himself so COM
pletely from the printed form, that laid
side by side the two speeches would
have shown themselves at for delivery
on separate occasions.
One thing the press did not comment
upon was Mr.. Bryan's assertion that
: the Chicago platform of 1896 could be
dispensed with in the coming campaign
without harm to himself or the p,S ".
He added
I'VE may lack the issue Of antl-im-
perlaiism. of antitrust. Of nnti-expan-
sion, but there is one platform left to
us. one upon which We can night and
wln-that is, the Declaration of INDIE
pendence."
His hearers should have taken him
seriously at this point. but 1t was late.
and they were spiritually happy 30

paragraph. Another curious thing

graphs appear In It which are dupll-

CHICAGo-The sharp advance at
Paris was the main factor in firm and
fairly active wheat market here to-
day, May closing sc over Saturday at
66&c. Corn closed nc and oats &c and
Nc lower. The provisions market at
the close was little changed from Sat
urday.
The advance in the Paris market
equal to 2@2kc here, founded on add.
tional reports of damages to both the
French and Russian crops, while the
prime factor in u strong wheat mar
ket here. was not the only influence.
Liverpool was also strong. supported By
the decrease on passage and in worlds
shipments and II was rumored that
wheat would have to be imported to re-
lleve the famine in India May wheat
opened %0%c over Saturday at 66&G
66Ac and advanced on n good demand
to 67ikc, with foreigners the principal
buyers.
On free realizing Of profits by trad
ers, the advance was partially lost.
May sinking to 66Sc. May closed firm
and sc over Saturday at 66Sc. Up to
noon trade was active. but after that
more quiet. New York reported ten
loads taken for export. Atlantic port
clearances In wheat and flour were
equal to 10000 bushels. Primary re-
ceipts were 47S,000 bushels, compared
apolIs and Duluth reported 49, cars,
against 757 last week and s4s a year
ago. Receipts here were 3s cars, none
of which were OF contract grade.
The corn market, after a degree Of
frmness. accustomed by the strength Of
wheat, the steRdlness Of cables. the
smallness Of offeringb from first hands
and the fact that the government fig
ures were not as bearlsh as expected,
turned tail and closed weak, very close
to the bottom. There WAS scattering Ii
quotation throughout rather quiet
session. Local stocks increased $4,000
bushels and to-dRys receipts were over

3Slsc to 33c, closing hc under Saturday
at 33633Mc.
Oats was neglected and quiet and so
Respondent that It mustered no
strength even when corn and wheat
showed gains. When corn turned oats
were in mood to sympathize and sold
OFF. Receipts here were pa cars. The
local stock Increased Gi,OOO bushels.
May ranged from 23Sc to 23&c, closing
M6Kc depressed at 2SAc.
Provisions were firm early on re-
ceipts of holdings under the estimate

hogs averaged Ave pounds less than the
average the previous week. The de-
mand was active Mt first, but as oTter-
Ings came later with llberallty from in

which also caused some selling Of pro-
