Concluded Illinois Tour at East
st. Louis.
Passed Bryan On The
Journey.
The Final Speech Was Made At
Midnight.

East St. Louis, ILL.,, October 8.-Goy.
Roosevelt tonight concluded his cam
paign tour of Illinois, speaking in this
city to the largest audience Assem- bled
here since the McKinley-Bryan cam
paign Of four years ago. Various Repub-
Hcan organizations Of this city and st.
Louis Vied with each other IN doing
honor to the Viee Presidential candidate.
Gov. Roosevelt betrayed no token OF
WEAKNESS notwithstanding he had made
speeches at many towns in the state en-
route, the most notable of which was at
Springfield. There the Governor re-
trained from discussing finance, trusts
and such topics, devoting himself ex-
cIusiVely to the life achievements of
Abraham Lincoln.
The crowd at Jacksonville was the
largest that had greeted Gov. Roosevelt,
owing, undoubtedly, to the fact that
Judge Yates, Who lives in Jacksonville,
was on the train. Between double files
Of mounted rough riders, Gov. Roose-
Welt and Judge Yates rode to large tent
in the public square. There the process
sion halted and the crowd cheered while
Judge Yates introduced Gov. Roosevelt,
who spoke briefly and hurriedIy returned
to his train.
On his arrival at Alton, the Governor
was greeted by a large body of citizens
and organizations. A feature was the
presence of sixty marines and thirty for
mer members Of the regul lar army, all of
the latter having served under Gov.
Roosevelt at Santiago. The Governor
then left for East St. Louis. Immediately
south of the city the train stopped for
orders. An incident of interest trans
pired at this point. 1t was the arrival
and stopping of William ]. Bryan's spec
ial train north bound, Immediately
alongside thu Roosevelt special. The
Bryan train also stopped for orders. The
candidates did not see each other until
their respective cars we're passing slow
", but as they passed they recognized
each other in the dimsnght from the car
window and each leaning forward,
waved his hand in salutat1on.
The Roosevelt special arrived here at
II o'clock and the Governor was driven
Immediately to the platform in front
OF the court house from which he spoke.
1t was nearly midnight and necessarily
brief. He discussed the issues along the
usual lines, referring to the prosperity
of the country and urged his hearers not
to go back to the days of Coxey and the
free soup kitchens.
At the conclusion of his speech, sGov.
Roosevelt was escorted across the nigh
bridge to St, Louis, where he is a guest
tonight at the Planters hotel, in COM
pany..with Grand Marshal L. P. PhiIpot,
formerly Of Kentucky, who was mem,
Der OF Roosevelt's rough riders.

THEORY VS.. EXPERIENCE.
senator Depev Discusses Bryan as
Prophet.

Chicago, October 8 Senator Chauncey
N. Depew addressed a large audience Of
Republicans tonight, his speech being de-
Hvered under the auspices Of the Mar
quette club, a strong Republican organl-
zatIon. The club had erected a large tent
at North Clark street and North avenue,
capable Of seating 1900 PEG pie, and it was
completely filled when Senator Depew
commenced his speech.
The Senator spoke in his usual happy
manner and his good humored thrusts
were received with great applause. He
made hit with the audience by declaring
that Mr. Bryan did not deny the abund-
ant prosperity of the country; he ella lined
1t was intoxicated with prosperity aud
that If he Is elected he would do away
with the intoxicant. After speaking OF
the great prosperity Of the country, Sena-
tor Depew went on to say that this is a
campaign in which theory and expert
ence are opposed. The policies that Bryan
breaches against have been tested Tor four
years and have been found successful.
Speaking OF Mr.. Bryan's position on na-
tional affairs, Senator Depew said:
A prophet who attempts to fool the
people by holding up as untried theory
demonstrated results and upon that
theory predicting the reverse OF what his
tory has established, insults the inteHi
genee of every person who is familiar
with the story of the marvellous. growth of

WHY COURT WILL NOT RETURN.

WHY COURT WILL NOT RETURN.
Washington, October 8.-The. effort to
induce the Chinese imperial court to re-
turn to Pek1n has failed after week S
persistent effort on the part Of the pow
ers. News to that effect was brought to
the state departmenttoday by the Chinese
minister, who received it, via St. Peters
burg, from Viceroys Liu Kun Yik and
Chang Chih lung under date Of October
4. Minister WI received the message last
night. 1t was as follows:
s''The departure of their imperial males
ties for Shen 81 (provinca) was due to dis
tressing conditions at TAI Yuen Flu.
There issa scarcity of food supplies in the
province OF. Shanst on account of long
continued drought and the provincial
capital Tai Yuen is almost deserted, the
trades people having lett on account OF
the disturbances caused and continued
for months by the Boxer rebels who had
invaded that province with the en-
enlargement of GOV. Yu.
''The majesties therefore, were obliged
to proceed to Shensi, where telegraphic
communication with Shanghai and other
parts Of the empire is Op ened and rapid
communication with their majesties may,
therefore, be carried on; thus court and
official business may be transacted more
expeditiously by their presence in Shensi,
rather than in Shansi.
The reasons for the temporary post
ponement of their majesties' return to
Pekin are the presence Of the allied forces
there on account of which solicitous fear
is doubtless entertained, besides the dread
OF the outbreak of epidemic diseases,
/ which usually follow after great dis
turbances, destruction of property and
military. operations. 1t is hoped the pow
ers will be considerable in their Judgment
in this matter

Coy. RooseveIt's speech was brief. He
was followed by Senator Cullom. In the
course of his remarks; Gov. Roosevelt
said: "Gi7e Congress the power to deal

ly appraised at; but, Judging from the
avidity of buying, there appears to
be an, extensive willingness to invest
at the higher prices which have been
reached In some quarters there is
some misgiving lest an upward turn
in the rate of interest may check the
rising drift of values, and though this
feeling no doubt causes some heslta-
ton in buying, yet the effect on prices
is not serious. Moreover, stage has
been reached in the money movements
of the season at which the enlarging
reserves O. the banks may be expected
to keep the rate of interest moderate
for some months to come. In truth,
however, it would be welcome effect
if this sort of caution should help to
restrain the market from running into
an excess of buying by the public at
unwarrantably high prices.
Sanguine observers will find in the
situation as it stands plenty of reason
for. expecting continued speculative
and investment activity. We have had
a long run of dullneSs in the market,
and revival was therefore to be natur-
ally expected. The election has crea-
ted a situation calculated TO foster
booms in many directions. Judging
from common report the leading
branches of industry are each promised
their own booms. New corporations
are forthcoming at rate which prom
ises a pronounced revival of the In
duStrial'. boom. If the China troubles
should be satisfactorily settled, we may
look for a Celestial boom with wide
reaching consequences. We seem des-
tined. indeed. to enter the twentieth
Century in the midst of bewilderment
of booms. But, all enthusiasm apart,
there does seem much sohdS prom sse
of an era Of prosperity that VIII gfTe
enhanced value to all forms of sound
enterprise; and. much as financial val
ues have already risen, it. would be
venturesome TO predict that they will
not advance still further before the
end has been reached; reactions OF
more or less severity course are
now in order and must be axpecfeds
We recommend for the present quick
in-and-out turns rather than buying
for long pulls. The frequent fiuctua-
tons hereafter will be very profitable
to the nimble operator who catches
them. HENRY CLEWS.

BUSINESS AND
INDUSTRIAL.
VIEWS OF HENRY CLEWS.

Special to the Register.
NEW YOnK, November 24.-Anoth-
er week of extraordinary activity in
Wall street, with some abatement IN
the ardor of buying, however, but no
development of important bear" sell
ing. There is no apparent timidity
about the general good undercurrent
of the market. For the five days end
ing with the Dist instant, the sales
of stocks aggregated 6,237 ,S36 shares,
or an average OF 1,247, 567 shares Pc
day; which is a continuous acl.~y
unequalled in the transactions of the
Stock Exchange. The business with
London has Deen of unparalleled mag
nitude, the buying on English account,
on Wednesday last, being over 100000
shares: and the purchasing orders
from Chicago and from the interior
generally being on an extraordinary
scale. The extent of the buying on
local account indicates an accession of
confidence, arising from the outcome
of the Federal elections, exceeding all
expectations, and, at the same time,
shows an unusual abundance of surplus
earnings seeking transient employ
ment.
Rarely has there been, in a great
speculative boom, so little disposition
to challenge large rise in prices. 1t
is true, that among the more prudent
of large operators, there has been
some considerable realizing of profits;
but sucn offerings have been freely
taken. So elated is public opinion
over the confirmation of the gold basis
and the prospect of completion of cur
rency reform that it is felt that all in
vestments have gained added value
and that our whole financial system
has been placed upon a more solid
foundation. As yet it does not fully
appear what this appreciation in the
status OF securities may be legitimate
